Chapter 222: Daxia’s most generous thank you gift, shining with the country and existing forever!
Staring at the space rocket in the live broadcast.
The name "Daxia Great Wall-1" alone has directly aroused various speculations among many space fans.
"Does this mean that we want to restart the Great Wall space shuttle?"
"Or does Daxia have a new aerospace engineering plan?"
Daxia rarely uses space rockets with "new" names, and each use means that major changes will be made.
Could it be that Daxia is going to greatly advance the progress of the entire lunar exploration project?
Thinking of this, all the space fans looked at the Great Wall-1 carrier rocket, which was not huge at all and could not even touch the edge of a heavy carrier rocket. They were even more puzzled and couldn't help muttering: "Is this possible?"
Why launch this thing? At best, it can only carry the weight of a few communication satellites! ?
Let it go on a moon exploration? Isn't that asking too much? They are not even adults yet, so why are we asking them to shoulder such a heavy responsibility?
now.
Across the ocean, Livermore.
Only Lu Ze, who is in the LLNL laboratory, knows what this means.
Lucy, who was slurping noodles, rubbed her hard. If it weren't for the taste of sour bamboo shoots in her mouth, Lu Ze would have kissed her happily.
"Daxia, you really gave me a unique gift."
This is a gift to the 'Great Wall Watcher' organization, and it is also an extremely valuable gift.
We used space rockets to celebrate the friendship between the two sides and presented a unique "firework" in front of the people of the world.
This kind of gift is truly unprecedented and may not be surpassed in the future.
Although the five words "Great Wall Watcher" cannot be written directly, otherwise Daxia is afraid that if such a clear name is called out, it will arouse many people's imagination, but the name "Great Wall" has nothing to do with it.
After all, many things in Daxia use "Great Wall" as their code name. Even if there is a name like "Great Wall" in the previous space rocket registration, it will not arouse suspicion from any other country.
It was both considerate and grand.
In addition to being surprised, Lu Ze looked at the special number and was a little confused. He frowned and asked, "But what does this 'Great Wall-1' mean?"
Could it be that Daxia is preparing to launch the 'Great Wall-2' space rocket?
Otherwise, why would we add a suffix number at the end instead of just using a name like 'Daxia Great Wall'?
Doesn't that mean that Daxia is really preparing to make some special moves on the "Great Wall-2"?
"That's not right. It seems that there were no other plans at this point in time in my previous life."
This made Lu Ze feel extremely strange.
He didn't remember that Daxia had any other special space programs.
According to the progress in the previous life, Daxia’s next space plan should be to conduct orbital exploration and landing in the lunar orbit.
That is, 'Chang'e 2' and 'Chang'e 3' will undertake this important task.
Subsequently.
"Could it be that there has been some breakthrough in aerospace technology?" Lu Ze thought of this.
Only if Daxia achieves a technological breakthrough will it be possible to open up a different space exploration path according to the original plan.
Otherwise, according to Daxia Aerospace's usual steady and cautious character, it would definitely not rashly make such a "bold" move.
After all, Daxia Aerospace only has a limited amount of funds each year and cannot afford any huge risks.
In other words, at least there should be a preliminary plan now.
"A breakthrough in aerospace technology." He touched his chin and said to himself, "This doesn't seem strange. After all, I have provided a lot of technology during this period of time."
“It would be strange if there is no breakthrough.”
Although he did not copy the professional technology in aerospace engineering to give to Daxia, Lu Ze copied many cutting-edge industrial equipment, which greatly made up for the lack of high-end industry.
These cutting-edge equipment have greatly promoted the high precision and high strength required for aerospace. It is very likely that it is because of these cutting-edge technologies that Daxia has made a small leap forward in aerospace technology at this point in time.
Suddenly.
Lu Ze thought of another thing: "If Daxia's spaceflight breakthrough occurs, should I copy the Saturn V?"
The Saturn V was equipped with the incredible 'F-1' and 'J-2' rocket propulsion engines, which were capable of achieving an outrageous 3400-ton thrust. It was also the only space rocket capable of carrying humans to the moon, so it naturally had a very high value for replication.
This thing is not difficult to copy. After all, after the Saturn V was retired by NASA, it has been placed directly in the memorial park. As long as Lu Ze wants to copy it, he can go there and copy it at any time.
Although the various equipment inside has long been in disrepair, the 'copy' is calculated based on the completion of the current 'technological items'.
"But, can that thing really be used?" Lu Ze couldn't help but wonder in his heart.
He had no doubt that the Saturn V had a thrust of 3400 tons. The same principle also applied to spacecraft. Without such a strong thrust, it would be difficult to carry out the 'manned lunar landing' plan.
However, considering the technology of the 1960s, almost every aspect of the Saturn V space rocket was extremely risky. Even if it was really copied, it is still unknown how much effect it would have today.
Not to mention carrying out a manned lunar landing program, even flying out of low-Earth orbit is a huge challenge.
After all, almost every part of the Saturn V embodies the highest technological content in the entire United States and even the Western world, and every tiny component on it is the result of the painstaking efforts of hundreds of engineers.
Many of the parts inside were made by hand by skilled craftsmen found in cutting-edge factories in Taiwan. They took years to polish them. There is no precise standard for each component, and it all depends on the eyesight of the master craftsmen.
Any one of the heat shields has millions of holes in it, which are so tiny that they need to be viewed with a microscope. They are not made with any cutting-edge equipment, but are instead made by the hands of master craftsmen who slowly fill in the holes one by one.
The entire "Saturn V" space rocket mobilized hundreds of thousands of workers and tens of thousands of engineers from the entire industry chain, and was completed at any cost with the concerted efforts of all the top universities and cutting-edge laboratories in the United States.
This is also the reason why the United States has proposed the "return to the moon" plan several times but has failed time and time again, because it is completely impossible to replicate the entire Saturn V.
Back then, the United States was the overlord of the global manufacturing industry, but now it has even run away from the manufacturing industry. Do you still want to find someone to help you hammer out nails one by one?
Where can they find these masters? Either they are dead or the factories have closed down.
In other words, even if Lu Ze copied this technology, the chances of successfully reproducing it could only be described as slim.
"And the success rate of this thing is too mysterious." Lu Ze sighed.
The difficulty in replicating the technology is not a big deal, but the entire Saturn V is almost like a large bomb full of various uncertainties, which is more worrying.
How did they manage to land a man on the moon with the technology available at the time? The difficulty of successfully landing on the moon was no less risky than crossing the Pacific Ocean in a canoe. He couldn't understand how the Eagle Sauce succeeded so many times.
You can't win the lottery so many times in a row, right? Could it be that God is blessing you?
Thinking of this, the importance of Saturn V in his heart was greatly reduced.
"Let's see how much achievement points the reward is then." Lu Ze immediately made an "X" in his mind.
If the reward is high, he wouldn't mind copying it, but if the achievement point reward is low, then forget it.
The Eagles do not take the lives of astronauts seriously and can gamble on the tiny probability, but Daha is not willing to take such a risk. Every talent is a hard-earned treasure.
Maybe he would be able to come up with better aerospace technology later, so it would be even more unworthy to take such a risk.
at the same time.
While Lu Ze was thinking about this, on the other side, the launch at the space center was also in the final countdown.
During the CTV live broadcast, the camera turned.
Came directly to the Jiuquan Aerospace Command Center.
Behind the many Daxia aerospace staff members, a line of large words caught everyone's eyes.
[We must catch up with and surpass the international advanced level]
For a moment, many space fans couldn't help but shed tears.
Whenever they see this line of words, their hearts are always filled with excitement.
"Decades have passed, and we are still practicing this."
“No one has forgotten these words, and no one has failed to live up to their expectations.”
Decades ago when China was poor and backward, this sentence was on the banner in front of the adobe house. Decades later, this sentence is still on the modern aerospace command center.
This is the most lasting confession, which means that the Daxia astronauts have never forgotten their mission at all times, and will not forget it now and will not forget it in the future.
After a while.
When the countdown ended, the 'Daxia Great Wall-1' space rocket was launched.
The first and second stage thrusters separated normally and there were no accidents during the whole process.
This did not surprise anyone. With Daxia's current aerospace technology, launching a medium-sized carrier rocket was not difficult at all.
However, up to this point in time, people still don't know what Daxia Aerospace is up to this time.
Even during the live broadcast of 'CTV' this time, there was no host to explain, and not even any sound was played, as if it was a 'space' pantomime.
Inside the Pentagon Building.
Kimi Andrew was also watching the 'space rocket' launch.
But at this moment, his face was also filled with confusion: "What are they doing in Daxia?"
"Is it a demonstration of aerospace strength? Or is it carrying something different?"
Daxia has made such a strange move, it is impossible for me not to pay attention.
However, he didn't understand what was going on.
Even the flaming takeoff and the crackling sound of the launch seemed unusually strange in his eyes.
Isn't this just a regular space launch? Is there anything special about it? Is it really carrying "space-based weapons"?
Not only him, but all space fans around the world were completely confused.
A launch that can be broadcast live by CTV must be a major launch to receive such attention.
How can it be so ordinary? Being ordinary is its biggest fault. A space rocket that can be treated like this should not be "ordinary".
Even if it's not about landing on the moon, it still has special significance, right? What's more, its name is "The Great Wall"?
How can an ordinary 'exploration satellite' use such a brand new 'name'?
At this time.
Suddenly, the live broadcast, which was originally like a silent movie, changed as the space rocket broke through the space altitude of 200 kilometers and officially entered the Earth's low-Earth orbit.
A rustling sound of emptiness reached everyone's ears, just like the white noise of snow on a TV, symbolizing the aftermath of the explosion of the universe.
Then, the noise began to weaken, leaving only a faint background sound.
Just when they all thought that something had happened during CTV's live broadcast.
Another abrupt sound was heard, but this time it was not "background white noise" or any abnormal rocket launch warning.
It was a prelude that lasted only two seconds before it awakened the song deep in the memories of all the people of Daxia.
[A big river with wide waves]
[This is a beautiful motherland, where I grew up]
At this moment, the final location of the 'Daxia Great Wall-1' shown on the screen fell directly at a certain position in the geosynchronous orbit.
moment.
Lu Ze, who was in the dormitory, could not hide his excitement. His face turned red and his fists clenched tightly. "Is this Da Xia's gift?"
“Is this the gift they gave me?”
“I love it so much!!”
How could he not recognize this song? How could he not be familiar with this song that he had been listening to since childhood?
My Motherland
This not only represents the song of all Daxia people, but also means that this is the motherland of the "Great Wall Watchers" organization.
Singing this song in the name of "Great Wall" over the entire planet indicates that no matter how many years pass, Daxia will always be the motherland of the "Great Wall Watch" organization.
The 'Great Wall' will be in geosynchronous orbit, forever locked by gravitational tides, and with solar charging, it will be in the frequency band at this location.
It will continue to send this broadcast to the entire earth, singing this song in the name of "Great Wall Watch".
This is the eternal existence that shines with the country!
