Chapter 2930 Gold Meteorite Core Transportation Plan
【Revision】
"Mr. Wu, don't worry, I promise you that I will never hold you back." Yang Xiaoyun said with a smile to everyone.
"Haha, I feel relieved with your guarantee." Seeing Yang Xiaoyun's confident guarantee, Wu Haochang said with a smile.
Yang Xiaoyun smiled and said to him: "Actually, our current benefits are still very impressive. Our current revenue in the field of commercial launch missions and commercial satellites is not low, and our profits are also very considerable.
Although we are still a heavy investment enterprise at present, we are confident that we can turn losses into profits in the future and build Haoyu Aerospace into a truly international aerospace giant and become one of the growth engines of the parent company."
Yang Xiaoyun paused, and then continued: "Although we currently invest a lot in the lunar exploration program, it is not without results. At present, we have made some gains in these projects. I believe that as time goes by,
Income will also gradually increase.
In addition, we are also actively carrying out commercial projects related to lunar exploration, such as attracting more business partners, developing lunar resources, etc."
Speaking of this, Yang Xiaoyun glanced at Wu Hao, and then said: "Actually, we have been advancing a plan, which is the lunar gold meteorite project. We plan to transport this gold meteorite back, and then package and sell it. For this gold meteorite
There are many famous jewelry brands that are interested, and their valuation of this gold meteorite has exceeded three to four billion. If we can transport this gold meteorite back, we will make huge profits."
After hearing Yang Xiaoyun's words, everyone present laughed.
Yu Chengwu, who was sitting next to Yang Xiaoyun, smiled and said, "Mr. Yang has told me a lot about this golden meteorite."
"Of course, I have been thinking about it for a long time. On the one hand, its value is indeed very high. I am afraid that someone will miss it if it is placed on the moon. On the other hand, as a woman, everyone loves beauty. To be honest, I
But I really look forward to having such a piece of jewelry made from this golden planet." Yang Xiaoyun said with a smile.
Hearing what Yang Xiaoyun said, Zhang Jun couldn't help but said: "It's a pity that it's too late. Otherwise, I really want to use such a ring to propose."
Having said this, Zhang Jun turned to Wu Hao and said, "I'm sure I won't be able to catch up. How about you think about it?"
Wu Hao smiled and did not speak, but looked at a few people and said: "We have actually discussed this golden meteorite core many times. The key to the problem now is how to transport it back and transport it at the lowest cost.
It will be shipped back. You guys can tell me what suggestions and ideas you have."
After hearing Wu Hao's recommendation, Zhou Xiangming, as the person in charge of technology, took the lead and said: "Actually, we have discussed this project privately a lot. The current consensus among us is that we should try not to occupy resources and use existing resources.
Bring it back."
Wu Hao asked: "Is there any specific plan?"
Yes, Zhou Xiangming nodded, and then said: "We have formulated a total of two transportation plans, one is in-situ transportation, and the other is off-site transshipment.
The first is the in-situ transportation plan. This plan requires launching a special spacecraft to the location of the golden meteorite core, then loading it into the spacecraft and transporting it directly back to Earth. However, the cost of doing this will be very high.
, because a landing ascender needs to be specially developed to load this golden meteorite core.
The best way we currently think of is to use our Earth-Moon Transport System to transport the golden meteorite core from the landing ascender on the lunar part. We only need to adjust the landing orbit of the landing ascender so that it falls on the golden meteorite
Next to the star core, a robotic arm is used to load it into the landing ascender, and then transported to space, where it will be transported back to Earth by other spacecraft.
But this requires dividing the gold meteorite core, because the landing ascender cannot accommodate such a large thing, and the entire transfer process will be very inconvenient.
However, once the golden meteorite core is divided, both its commercial value and scientific research value will be greatly reduced. In addition, it is also very difficult to divide the golden meteorite core on the moon, and
It will also increase costs.”
Wu Hao and Zhang Jun couldn't help but nodded when they heard Zhou Xiangming's reward. Indeed, this plan is very feasible, but at the same time it is very difficult, and it will greatly increase the cost, which is not cost-effective.
Without waiting for Wu Hao to speak, Zhang Jun asked: "What is the second plan?"
"The second plan is the off-site transshipment plan, which is relatively more reasonable." Zhou Xiangming said to Wu Hao.
"We plan to transport this gold meteorite core to the Lunar Science Exploration Station, and then use the facilities and equipment at the station to put it on the experimental ascender, and then transport it back to Earth."
"Oh, it's thousands of kilometers apart, how do you plan to transport it to the scientific research station?" Wu Hao couldn't help but become interested.
Seeing his inquiry, Zhou Xiangming said with a smile: "Do you still remember what I mentioned to you earlier that our third lunar cargo transfer spacecraft will specially transport two engineering vehicles to transfer lunar soil?"
Wu Hao understood instantly after hearing this: "Indeed, these two vehicles can carry one and a half tons of lunar soil, which is completely enough to carry this more than one ton gold meteorite star core."
Speaking of this, Wu Hao asked Yu Chengwu: "You have made this idea a long time ago."
"No, this is making the best use of everything." Yu Chengwu said with a smile: "Next year the main project of our lunar scientific research station will basically be completed. By then our demand for lunar soil will not be as big as it is now. So for
The demand for these two engineering transport vehicles will also be greatly reduced, so we plan to make full use of an engineering transport vehicle, a multi-functional engineering robot, and the modified 'Wangshu No. 2' patrol test vehicle to form a fleet.
Excavate this golden meteorite core and transport it back."
Zhang Jun asked: "Is such a long distance feasible?"
Zhou Xiangming nodded repeatedly and said: "Technically speaking, it is completely feasible, and using existing facilities and equipment, costs can be effectively controlled."
After looking at Zhang Jun, Zhou Xiangming continued: "The reason why we formed a fleet to transport this golden meteorite core is because long-distance transportation is not easy. These three vehicles can effectively minimize the risk.
What we are most worried about is problems arising during transportation. With the multi-functional engineering robot and the modified Wangshu No. 2 accompanying us, even if problems arise, we can get them solved in time to ensure that the entire transportation process goes smoothly."
