Chapter 141 Military Materials

(ps: Well, come and count the genuine tickets, collect them with one click and three in a row!)

No matter what, at least now humans can be 100% sure that the living planet biosphere is still very precious in an interstellar civilization.

Because according to the civilization level described by the 'Silver Mist Consciousness Body' based on the aircraft of the Mok Star civilization, the spacecraft that crashed on Callisto had a warp engine and should belong to an interstellar civilization.

And the red gas in the unknown civilization's spaceship cannot make intelligent life last forever.

Speaking of warp engines, the two warp engines were still on board the Hope, but there were still no major breakthroughs in their research, nor was it the case of deciphering the built-in system of the antimatter storage device.

This is reality. There is no way that a low-level civilization can pick up something from a high-level civilization and then crack it and build it in three or two days.

The barriers to technology make it almost impossible for humans to understand how they work.

Sometimes, Yue Yuan even felt that humans might only be able to fully understand the true working mechanism of the warp engine if they mastered the unified theory of the four basic forces.

However, there is also a lot of good news in the development of these years.

Humanity still analyzed many powerful alloy manufacturing technologies from the wreckage of the spacecraft back then, and these alloys are now being used on the new warship that will be used as the human flagship.

How strong is that alloy that was copied from the wreckage of an alien spacecraft that crashed on Callisto?

Humans once created a piece of alloy that was two meters thick and about eight meters long and wide, then dug a pit on the planet Wolf 1061 c, placed it in, and conducted experiments with hydrogen bomb explosions. A hydrogen bomb exploded above it, and the 30 million degrees Celsius and powerful shock wave generated instantly only slightly deformed it.

The ability to resist impact damage is extremely strong.

Of course, when a hydrogen bomb explodes, its core temperature is not just 30 million degrees Celsius, but 350 million degrees Celsius. However, humans already know its melting point when making this alloy, otherwise it would not be possible to make it, so that experimental test In fact, it is its impact resistance.

On the wreckage of that spaceship, all other metals were in disrepair, but this alloy was still shining brightly. In the end, it was all dismantled by humans and packed away on the Hope.

However, this kind of alloy is extremely difficult to manufacture. Human factories have been working non-stop for more than ten years, and they have only produced ten tons.

Because its melting point is as high as 150 million degrees Celsius, humans can only create this alloy by mastering the high temperatures generated by the controlled fusion of helium nuclei.

To ignite the helium element, it needs to reach at least 100 million Kelvin under the pressure generated by 0.5 times the mass of the sun, and 200 million Kelvin is needed for controlled operation.

The conversion to degrees Celsius is similar, Kelvin minus 273.15 is the Celsius temperature.

It is conceivable that it is completely impossible to equip all warships with current human productivity, so humans can only assemble it on the outer shell of the flagship.

Tests show that this alloy not only has strong impact resistance, but also has excellent thermal insulation effect. Using this alloy as the outer shell of a battleship, basically nothing can burn it through as long as a large-yield hydrogen bomb does not explode against the alloy.

Anyway, none of mankind's current laser weapons can burn through it.

What does this mean?

This shows that this is a material that exceeds the current level of human civilization. A warship whose outer shell is made of this material can be penetrated by almost no weapon in the same level of civilization. After all, it is a warship. , it’s impossible to stupidly rush into the center of the hydrogen bomb explosion, right?

This kind of alloy material is a new height that humans have reached in the field of materials in the past ten years. Although it was copied by studying alien spacecraft materials, it is still a material that humans can master.

Based on this material, humanity's flagship project came into being.

Humanity plans to fully produce this alloy in the next twenty to thirty years, and then use it to build a flagship with extremely strong comprehensive performance.

Of course, humans will definitely build more than one new warship. After all, the population is increasing. Moreover, even if no one drives it, it can be built as a reserve warship, or it can be controlled directly by AI.

Because of the population problem, humans have to work hard on AI control, which is combat AI research.

Among the combat configurations envisaged by the headquarters, there is such a method, which is to use a new type of warship as the main force, equipped with dozens of warships like Callisto as auxiliary, to form a small team combat force.

As of now, humans already have seventy Callisto-level battleships, while there are only two new-type battleships, and the new alloy flagship is still under construction.

In addition to these two types of warships, humans have also built many small frigates and destroyers. This type of warship is much smaller, generally only about two hundred meters in length.

In addition, humans also plan to build several space carriers, mainly to carry self-exploding unmanned combat aircraft.

To be honest, human beings have never fought a real space war, but not having fought it does not mean that they don’t know anything. The universe is called the sea of ​​stars, so let’s build a fleet first according to the model of the navy.

Anyway, relying on the star system, the resources are almost inexhaustible. Small ships such as frigates and destroyers do not need large space docks. They can build more. As for space aircraft carriers, build one first. Self-exploding unmanned combat aircraft must fill the hangar.

In short, we must have a fleet of a certain size before setting sail again. The principle is to build as many as possible as much as possible.

It is true that humans have been studying tactical armor, but the weapons design department knows very well that trying to rely on a single soldier to fly a mecha in combat is tantamount to courting death.

There is no need to do this kind of test. From the energy level that the tactical armor can carry, you know that it cannot penetrate the shell defense of the battleship.

Moreover, there is no way to break through the defenses of the frigates and get close to the main battleships, and the battleships' laser weapons for defense are not simple either.

Therefore, in human imagination, gang-hopping warfare is impossible to exist, and it is even more of a fantasy plot to rely on a single player to kill an enemy warship.

At least with the technology that humans currently have, it is impossible to happen if the imaginary enemy has the same technology.

In the past ten years, in addition to breakthroughs in military industry, human technology has also made varying degrees of progress in other fields.

In terms of biotechnology, although another life potion formula has not been developed, after all, humans have only been in this galaxy for more than ten years, and it has not yet reached the fifty years that Yi Kai originally vowed to do, but they have created many staged developments. Results.

For example, anti-cancer factor enhancer, cell activity enhancer 1.0, anti-weight loss calcium loss version 2.0 drug, etc., obesity gene expression editing, and gene loss repair technology.

The emergence of various drugs and technologies has basically brought the physical condition of individual human beings to the peak level of normal people.
