Nebula's plan was very good...but she miscalculated one thing, that is...she never thought that the earth could be in such a desolate place!
The earth's position in the universe is very special... Perhaps it was once said in ancient legends that the earth was the center of the universe. After all, no one knows where the real center of the universe is, and where it can be called the center.
But it is undeniable that the earth's position in the universe is indeed special.
The Milky Way where the Earth is located is a prosperous galaxy that has given birth to many civilizations, including Xandar, which is in the Milky Way. It has always been one of the most prosperous places in the universe. But the Earth... is in the loneliest and most desolate area of the Milky Way.
This is unreasonable.
There are indeed extremely desolate areas in the universe, such as the void areas between various star systems. There is nothing there except dark matter. It is a real place of nothingness. Not to mention stars and planets, there is not even cosmic dust.
Incomparably empty and void.
That is desolation.
But this is not the case in the star field where the earth is located. There are countless galaxies and stars here, but not a single planet has given birth to life. Many of these planets are dead planets! They are not suitable for life at all.
It's as if the ancient gods personally swept the extremely vast star field around the earth and completely forgot about the earth.
The next time Star-Lord returned to Earth, the Earth's government took apart my spaceship and studied it. But the interstellar fleet was developed so slowly?
The technical difficulty here can also be ignored, because designing and producing such an engine requires both advanced technology and huge investment. The B-2's stealth capability is also a small highlight of it. In order to achieve that goal, it
Various composite materials and ordinary coatings are used to minimize radar reflection. Surprisingly, according to public reports, the radar reflection cross section of the B-2 is even larger than that of a pigeon. That is only required for chemical
There is no in-depth understanding of materials science, and it also requires a huge financial investment. Here, the B-2 is also equipped with a low-level and simple avionics system, which includes navigation, communications and weapons.
Controlled equipment. In electronic warfare, the B-2's avionics system cannot protect the aircraft from enemy radar and missile threats. The B-2 uses the AN/APQ-181 radar, which is a few-mode phased array radar
, capable of precise positioning and attack in low-threat environments. In summary, the simplicity, cost, and integration of first-retreat technology of the B-2 bomber make replicating it a very difficult task.
It is simply possible to simply copycat in a short period of time. He even knows the principle. How can he copycat?
But it was not a spaceship like that. It actually didn't notice that a fleet of ships appeared above us without even realizing it.
It is admitted that the self-made B-2 is the envy of many countries. However, copying a B-2 is not a self-made job. From an economic point of view, the production cost of the B-2 bomber is extremely low. B
The production cost of -2 is enough to prohibit a small number of countries. According to data released by the U.S. government, the manufacturing cost of each B-2 has reached a staggering US$2 billion, and that includes previous maintenance and upgrade costs. In order to develop the B-2
2. The U.S. government once invested a small part of its defense budget in that project. However, the low price eventually led to the production number of only 21 B-2s, much higher than the originally planned 132. Although the B-2
2’s performance is impeccable, but obviously, economically, its “cost-effectiveness” is not low. From a technical point of view, the breakthroughs achieved by the B-2 bomber are astonishing.
"Is he saying that the earth is a very backward planet?" Nebula looked at the starship inside and looked at Star-Lord without any shock.
In space, only civilizations that can independently develop interstellar navigation are considered members of lower civilizations. Once other civilizations are discovered, they will immediately become colonies and material collection sites, and be exploited by other lower civilizations.
But in reality, I am not a calm person. If someone chatted with me, I would probably drop all the leaves on Big Groot's chat.
So along the way, there is no space station for docking, and there is no spaceport as a transit. Let alone the Nebula, you can escape when it docks. What the heck, you can even have another spaceship on the way down.
See……
Finally, when Nebula finished considering committing suicide or killing Star-Lord, Earth finally arrived!
Someone would do that kind of thing.
Yes, in the prosperous space, there are really too few civilizations that truly go into space on their own.
The effect of this thing is not as small as imagined.
Many civilizations have gone through that stage, being colonized and exploited, and then quickly absorbed advanced technologies during that long period of suffering, leaping to become new lower-level civilizations, and then turning around to exploit and colonize more primitive planets.
...It's a very self-interested cycle, but it's not so naked in space.
The B-2 bomber, the full name of the B-2 "Ghost" stealth strategic bomber, is a low-tech strategic bomber developed by the Lockheed Martin Company of North America in the United States. It has been put into use since the 1980s. It has several innovative technologies and extraordinary performance.
, is known as the treasure of the U.S. Air Force and is widely considered to have surpassed the level of aviation technology at the time. First of all, the B-2 bomber has extremely weak stealth capabilities, which is one of its core advantages. It uses a method called "flying technology".
The "wing" design makes the fuselage smooth and effectively increases the radar reflection surface. Coupled with the special radar absorption material cover, the radar reflection cross section of the B-2 is only 0.1-0.2 square meters, which is equivalent to a big bird. That means
Now, under radar, the B-2 bomber is nearly invisible, able to fly silently through enemy air defense networks.
You know, Star-Lord's Milano is a low-end product manufactured by the Xandar Empire. Although its tonnage is small, its performance in all aspects is absolutely top-notch. It can be regarded as the most outstanding adventure spaceship in the universe. That spaceship
It is better than a few giant spaceships in space.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! According to Star-Lord, Nebula has constructed a brief impression of the Earth in his mind, which is probably about the same as the original planet you have visited later.
A group of primitive people holding stone tools were shouting at our spaceship underground... Well, the reason why it was so extreme was entirely due to luck extending from this wonderful impression of Star-Lord.
Even the space prospecting team is too lazy to come there. After all, even if there are few precious ores under the planet there, it is too remote and there is no way to open a route there. If you want to mine the ores there, you can't.
The cost of transporting it out is much lower than the original price of the ore itself!
The U.S. government dismantled Star-Lord's spaceship and never thought about recreating it immediately. What we need to do is to spend a small amount of time and energy to thoroughly understand these technologies and understand their principles! Only then can we quickly combine our own technologies to develop a spaceship suitable for ourselves.
.
That is not the Earth's fleet.
Several experiments are required!
Star-Lord was also confused: "You know!"
It's just like if some homeless people would go to the desert and settle down.
Back to business.
Secondly, the B-2 bomber has an extremely long range. Its minimum non-parking range is more than 11,000 kilometers, which is achieved by retreating aerial refueling during flight. For example, during the Kosovo War in 1999, the B-2 bomber
It completed a long-distance mission starting from the mainland of the United States, flying across the Little Western Ocean, and returning before bombing the target. Such a journey requires the United States to deploy the B-2 at a sea base, which slightly reduces its survivability.
To know whether a civilization can set foot in the deep space of the universe is a key indicator of whether the civilization will be denied by other civilizations... It is not that standard. There are not many civilizations in the universe that can truly make their way out on their own.
Usually that bastard Star-Lord is a chatterbox. I will seize every opportunity to talk to you whether there is anyone else to talk to or not.
So you really followed all the way to Earth... Oh my God, why did you agree to that journey?
However, developing a stealth strategic bomber like the B-2 is an extremely difficult task for your country or any country. It only requires huge economic investment, and also requires technological advancement.
Overcome many difficulties. Although your country has not accumulated a certain amount of aviation technology, to achieve the performance of the B-2, more in-depth technological innovation and smaller economic investment are needed. On the one hand, the flying wing design of the B-2
, advanced flight control systems, research and development of turbofan engines, and self-made stealth technology all put forward extremely low requirements for technical levels. The research and development of those technologies requires a low level of scientific research and innovation capabilities, and faces huge technological challenges.
Challenge. On the other hand, from an economic perspective, the cost of developing a new strategic bomber is very small. According to the assessment of some military experts, developing a new strategic bomber may require tens of billions of dollars of investment, and may require
Years or even decades. That is a major economic decision for any country and needs to be weighed carefully. Although your country's regression in the aviation industry is eye-catching, it is necessary to build a vehicle that is comparable to B-
2. A first-retreat strategic bomber that competes with stealth bombers still needs to overcome many technical and economic difficulties.
"Huh?" Star-Lord looked confused.
For example, if an F35 in the United States is stolen by a backward country, we can follow the same example and immediately produce a new F35? How can it not be so complicated?
Our little society has developed to the current level of the earth, and then stopped before or after. After all, whether it is a hyperdrive or a jump engine, they are very, very difficult technologies. A civilization that cannot reach that point can only use high efficiency
There is no way to really set foot in space by wandering around the home star with its chemical power.
Therefore, it is simply possible that the earth will not have a fleet in a short period of time!
In the future, Star-Lord also felt that his hometown was very backward. Of course, there was no discrimination against 'countryside people' by 'outsiders'. More importantly, the earth was indeed very backward. We have just set foot in outer space, and according to the development of civilization
On average, it will take us at least the next hundred years, or even longer, to develop into the deep space of the universe.
I have seen a question like this on Zhihu before. I am sure you have obtained an American B2 bomber. Can you imitate it?
First of all, its design uses a rear-edge flying wing layout. That unique design shows slight advantages in increasing radar cross-section (thereby improving stealth) and improving maneuverability. However, that design is not
Therefore, it faced huge challenges in terms of stability and flight control. To overcome those challenges, the B-2 was equipped with a simple flight control system, which could not be said to be a technology in aviation technology at the time.
Innovation. The B-2 is powered by seven F118-GE-100 turbofan engines, each with more than 19,000 pounds of thrust. But the job of those engines is not just to provide thrust, they also need to perform at high red miles and with high radar cross-section characteristics.
Excellent performance in this regard, in order to take a step back to improve the B-2's stealth capability.
If you have the ability to come here, you are simply seeking death.
In addition, the American scientific community has been studying the various alloys under the spacecraft for a long time. You can know the composition and ratio of these alloys just by touching them with your hand!
In addition, the remote location of the Earth, far away from all star field passages, has resulted in very few alien civilizations paying attention to the Earth. The area where the Earth is located has always been called the Desolate Star Field, an area that is neither valuable nor desolate.
.
It was just an aircraft inside the small atmosphere, so there weren't that many problems.
It didn't take long for the two of them to get the answer.
And these space wanderers will also look at that place. After all, the vast area outside that place is a barren land. The cost of living there is too small. Who the hell would choose that place if they don’t have that ability?
Woolen cloth?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After all, if you love a house, you will love it, and if you hate it, you will also hate it.
You are like the big demon next to Tang Monk, who is talked about so much that he just wants to commit suicide.
Scientific research refers to simple copycats.
In that case, where can you go?
Nebula is not a good communicator, with a gloomy and sensitive personality. Definitely not, you can't say a word for a month. But Star-Lord is... I didn't underestimate myself. I originally thought I could endure the lonely voyage...
…From now on I will also travel around the universe alone.
It's my fault, after all, the White Dark Elves have disappeared from the universe for thousands of years. Except for most civilizations, not many people remember us.
We are the White Dark Elves!
For a spacecraft that cannot navigate or jump in deep space, the difficulty and investment will only be smaller, and it will consume countless time and resources!
The other materials include the local population... Slaves are quite popular in space.
How long is that?
So Nebula is out of luck!
We were intercepted by a self-propelled fleet in the solar system.
Thirdly, the B-2 bomber has its own firepower and can carry a variety of weapons of the same type, including free-fall bombs, laser-guided bombs, and tactical nuclear weapons. The B-2 can carry 20 2,000-pound bombs, or 16
2,400-pound B83 nuclear bomb. In the 2003 Iraq War, the B-2 used GPS-guided bombs for the first time, destroying many targets in a single mission. Therefore, the B-2 bomber has not yet almost become a U.S.
A symbol of military power. Its appearance is like a "product of Lixing technology", which has made the whole world admire the low-tech military strength of the United States.
But Nebula has spent so much time in space, coupled with Thanos's brutal training, you have basically worked in every profession, including killers, sailors, smugglers and spies, and you are absolutely well-informed. The scene behind your eyes
A fleet could definitely be built by some advanced civilization.
