Minister Sun himself was completely frightened by the speed and performance of the airship!
This state was something he never expected. Before, it was said to be a leapfrog development, but now it is simply a leapfrog development!
If it were someone else's project, this situation would definitely not happen. At least, as the Minister of Science and Technology and Innovation, such an important project will definitely go through his review many times, and will also go through many reviews and demonstrations by the expert group.
Important data must be familiar to you.
How can such a major project be like Professor Chen's project, from project establishment to implementation, there is only one sentence. And then from top to bottom, there is a green light all the way, and it is directly approved.
This is Professor Chen’s privileged treatment.
However, having said that, if others had actually written the project establishment report, they might have been broken by the expert team.
The speed of Mach 50 alone is far higher than similar speeds, and it will definitely be reduced to an acceptable range. It would be good to maintain Mach 30.
Not to mention the distance, isn’t that what high-speed rail projects are like?
At a speed of 350 kilometers per hour, most can only operate at low speeds.
However, fortunately, no other expert review was held back.
"Professor Chen, can other space vehicles maintain this design speed?" Minister Sun asked Chen Yang excitedly again.
"No." Chen Yang shook his head directly.
"Ah? Why? Is it because some special materials cannot be obtained? Or is there some special design that can only be used this time?" Minister Sun asked Chen Yang quickly.
"No. The main reason is that it is too slow. It has not even reached 1% of the speed of light. If we rely on it, how can we achieve interstellar voyages? I'm afraid that by the time it arrives, everything from humans to machines will be scrapped." He said.
"..." Minister Sun was speechless.
It turns out that I am still a little too conservative, and this speed is too slow?
However, thinking about the future picture painted by Chen Yang and the despairing distances between galaxies in the universe, I suddenly felt that the speed of Mach 50 seemed... it seemed... it was indeed not fast enough.
"It's very fast! We originally wanted to fly to the moon, but it took at least a week. Now it only takes six or seven hours. It is indeed a huge leap! It is worth being proud of!" said Minister Sun.
"Hahaha... This is the basic start. When the moon base is established, we still need to improve the propulsion method of the spacecraft and push the flight speed to more than 1% of the speed of light.
Only at this speed can we be qualified to explore the universe and the Milky Way."
Chen Yang's eyes were firm and sparkling.
"Okay! As long as it is proposed by you, Professor Chen, I promise to fully support it! Even if you say that you will take Lan Xing to wander around, I will definitely support it with both hands!" Minister Sun said.
"It's unrealistic to wander with Blue Star." Chen Yang said with a smile. "Compared with other planets, the environmental factors that Blue Star relies on for survival are not those of Blue Star itself, but those of the sun, the moon, and the solar system.
The planetary system is jointly constructed! Just taking Blue Star to wander is like forcefully pulling a snail out of its shell and letting it wander into the forest alone.
If it is really forced to wander, it will at least take the entire solar system with it. The sun provides heat, the moon is a satellite that can improve the environment of the blue star, and Jupiter, Mars and even other solar system planets provide physical barriers for the blue star, which is equivalent to passing through a barrier for the blue star.
Layers of armor. Without the protection and support of the sun, the moon, and other planets, Blue Star would be a desert planet. If you walk alone in space, you won’t even be able to protect your own atmosphere."
"In this case, let's go wandering with the sun and other planets from now on, and eat wherever we go. Others build interstellar spaceships, let's just build a flying solar system." Xu Shiqiang said.
"That project is not that big. When the time comes, Blue Star's resources alone may not be enough."
"You need to dig as many as you need. If there are not enough Blue Stars, just look for them from other places. If there are not enough elsewhere, just get two from outside the solar system. The universe is so big, it doesn't matter if you get two." Xu Shiqiang said boldly.
"You know a hammer!" Minister Sun said directly to Xu Shiqiang.
He felt like he would lose if he said another word!
Chen Yang also smiled and said nothing.
Everyone fell silent again, quietly watching the "Hero" spaceship shuttle through the universe at high speed!
After talking to Fan Lang and others on the phone, everyone has changed from the initial excitement to the current dullness! In just one or two hours, they have changed from Blue Star's super warriors to the current interstellar warriors.
"It is expected that it will be close to the moon in another five hours. At that time, the spacecraft will brake and fly around the moon. After flying more than half a circle, it will stop and land near Area 176 near the South Pole."
The deputy commander of this expedition reported to Chen Yanghui.
Chen Yang nodded.
"After approaching the lunar orbit, remember to turn on the weapon system and be ready to counterattack at any time. If alien life approaches or is provoked, you can strike preemptively," Chen Yang said.
"Preparations have been made. When approaching the moon, the super laser weapons, proton pulse cannons, and small energy oscillators on the spacecraft will be turned on. If possible targets or potential dangers are found, countermeasures will be taken as soon as possible.
." The deputy commander said to Chen Yang again.
Although he was obviously older than Chen Yang, the deputy commander was not dissatisfied at all, but showed great respect for Chen Yang.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Now let's wait! Waiting for the "Hero" to arrive, waiting for the first battle of the human interstellar warriors!" Chen Yang said.
In the following time, everyone waited quietly.
Even though many of the previous commentators had experience working in the space agency, and even are still in the space agency now, they no longer dare to say anything anymore and they all just shut up!
According to previous expectations, it would take 10 days. However, after seeing this ultra-high speed, many observation agencies and research institutes changed their original predictions: the estimated time to reach the moon is 6.5 hours!
Those netizens who were already preparing to leave were excited when they heard that the completion time was changed from the original 10 days to 6.5 hours! They all expressed that they wanted to witness this great moment with their own eyes.
"I really look forward to seeing what a spectacular scene these human warriors will see when they land on the moon again!" someone said with emotion.
"I wonder if those human spies will tip off their people on the moon? I hope our warriors can win!"
"We will definitely win, definitely!"
Many people put their hands together and prayed silently.
