Chapter 360 Color Lightning
Fortunately, until the space shuttle Zero was about to pass through the clouds, there was no lightning strike, which relieved Won's nervous heart.

As long as it passes through the clouds, there is basically no problem with the landing of the space shuttle.

After waiting for a while, Han Yuan left the control room, came to the open space, looked up, although the weather was bad, but with his eyesight, he could already see the zero space shuttle.

A triangular black outline is slowly expanding.

While Won and the audience in the live broadcast room were waiting for the space shuttle to land, a dazzling red and green double-color lightning bolt as thick as an arm fell from the sky and struck the landing space shuttle.

Standing outside, the Korean Won people were stunned.

Space Shuttle Zero, struck by lightning?
It's far away from the clouds, and it can still be struck by lightning?
[Fuck, colored lightning. 】

[The space shuttle was struck by lightning? 】

[Lightning also has colors, this is the first time I've seen it. 】

[What a beautiful lightning bolt. 】

[Red and green, there is such a thunderbolt? 】

[The anchor has done too many bad things, he was struck by lightning. 】

[Zixiao Divine Thunder, Nine Tribulations Golden Thunder, Yimu Divine Thunder, Gengjin Divine Thunder, Sunflower Divine Thunder. 】

[When the energy of lightning is very high, it ionizes the air to produce different wavelengths, and then produces colors, commonly known as color TV ()]

【It’s the first time I’ve seen you, let’s make a wish and say it again. I wish everyone here is safe! 】

【I'm coming too, I wish all the family members here are safe. 】

[Stop milking, stop milking, you're going to die suddenly. 】

In the live broadcast room, discussions continued.

Lightning is common, but colored lightning is relatively rare.

Especially this kind of red and green colored lightning is extremely difficult to come across.

Looking at the space shuttle in the sky that was hit by the color TV, Han Yuan was a little dumbfounded. He was stunned for a while before he realized it, and ran to the control room.

He knows the reason for the formation of colored lightning better than 90.00% of the people in the live broadcast room.

When a lightning bolt has a lot of energy, when its voltage is high enough to ionize the air, it can ionize the air, and then produce different wavelengths to emit different lights. The one with high energy is purple light, otherwise, it is red light.

Although the lightning that hit the space shuttle is dominated by red and supplemented by green, it means that the lightning is not of the highest energy level, but it is not something the space shuttle can bear.

Especially the thickness of this lightning bolt is too exaggerated.

From the ground, they are as thick as an arm. Although the space shuttle has passed through the clouds and is visible to the naked eye, the altitude is not low, and there are still more than 1000 meters.

At this height, the lightning is as thick as an adult's arm, which means that its actual width can reach an astonishing ten meters or more.

This is also the most worrying point for the Korean won.

The energy contained in the lightning itself is high, and the width is so exaggerated. Whether the space shuttle can withstand it normally, he is not sure.

Flying back to the control room, the first thing Han Yuan looked at was the display screen recording the current status of the space shuttle.

Whether there is a problem with the space shuttle can be seen at a glance.

"Current sailing altitude: 1.27 kilometers"

"Current power reserve: 67.442%."

"Current liquid xenon working fluid remaining: 19.11%."

"Current solar panel temperature: 78°C."

"The current highest surface temperature of the spacecraft: 171°C."

"Current electric propulsion-free working fluid engine operating status: normal."

"Current operating status of the electromagnetic propulsion system: standby."

Entering the head, the data is normal, and Han Yuan heaves a sigh of relief.

Normal is fine.

All the data transmitted by the space shuttle in real time were within the normal range, and Won let go of his worries and turned to the real-time video.

The shooting equipment installed on the space shuttle is still sending back real-time images continuously.

It may have been interrupted when it was struck by lightning before, but it has now resumed.

Through the special input keyboard, Won switched the screen. Judging from the videos sent back from the shooting equipment from different angles, the current space shuttle is still descending steadily, and there is no problem.

As for the log information display on the other side.

The complicated logs are like running water on the display screen.

There are error messages and data fed back from normal operation.

"It is detected that the output power of the electric propulsion-no working fluid engine has decreased, and the magnitude has reached the critical value (5%), and the backup command 12 is executed."

"Execution result: success, stable output of power supply, current electric propulsion - no working fluid engine output power increased, current power 37.77%."

"."

"High-intensity magnetic field interference has been detected on the fuselage, and backup order 46 is executed."

"Execution result: success, the magnetic conduction system starts successfully, and the magnetic field ablation is completed."

"."

"Loss of current shuttle contact with base detected, backup order 400 activated."

"Execution result: failed."

"Loss of current shuttle contact with base detected, backup order 400 activated a second time."

"Execution result: Failed"

"Detecting that the current shuttle has lost contact with the base, backup order 400 is activated for the third time."

"Execution result: successful, contact with the base has been re-established."

"."

A series of log files came into Han Yuan's eyes, and Han Yuan carefully checked each log.

Obviously, the colored lightning hit the space shuttle just now and caused a lot of impact, otherwise the space shuttle that is about to land would not have activated so many backup commands to counteract and eliminate it.

When lightning struck the space shuttle, the strong magnetic field formed even caused the space shuttle to lose contact with the ground for a time. After the magnetic field ablated, the signal connection was re-established.

As for the electric propulsion engine that he was most worried about, it has stabilized. Although the output power has been greatly disturbed, there is no overall crash.

"As long as the engine and function chip are stable, the rest will be checked after the space shuttle lands."

Through the relevant log files, it was confirmed that the space shuttle can return, and the heart of Won, which was suspended in the air due to the lightning strike, fell steadily again.

The first time the satellite was sent to the sky by the space shuttle was full of twists and turns. First, it encountered a magnetic storm when it took off, then encountered a typhoon when it returned, and finally was struck by lightning when it was about to land. The excitement was so exciting that the heart could hardly stand it.

After calming down, Han Yuan didn't have time to think about it. On the test site, the space shuttle was about to land.

Three bright brownish-red tail flames supported the Space Shuttle Zero to land slowly. Very dry.

"Bang~"

There was a dull sound, which was the sound of the support frame falling to the ground, and then the tail flame at the bottom of the space shuttle quickly became smaller and then disappeared.

At this point, the zero space shuttle, which performed its mission for the first time, finally landed.

After waiting for a while, after the surrounding heat wave had almost subsided, Han Yuan began to check the overall status of the space shuttle.

The steel support not far away was pulled by him through the slide rail on the ground, and he climbed up to check the shell.

The space shuttle was struck by lightning in the sky before. Although there is a conductive device that can shunt the lightning, the possibility of the shell being struck by lightning is very high.

After all, Space Shuttle Zero is not an ordinary civil aviation airliner. Most of its surface is covered with metal skin, so it is not afraid of lightning.

Most of its surface is covered with a transparent protective material. Although it uses an extremely strong aluminum oxide-based material, this material, like sapphire, does not conduct electricity.

That is to say, if lightning strikes a part other than the conductive device, there is a great possibility that the protective material will be cracked.

Han Yuan climbed onto the steel frame and inspected the surface of the space shuttle along the iron frame.

Before he took two steps, a piece of protective material full of shattered patterns came into his eyes.

These patterns are like a luxuriant tree that has shed its leaves. It is very beautiful, but this is the trace left by the protective material struck by ultra-high voltage lightning.

After checking it, Won found that the area damaged by the lightning strike this time was not small.

The protective materials on the surface of Space Shuttle Zero are pieced together like pieces of glass, the same as the solar panels underneath, and the gaps in the middle are assembled with high-temperature resistant alloy materials and rivets.

Standing on the steel plus, the naked eye can see that there are cracks on a total of five protective materials.

The cracked material is under what resembles a lightning rod device.

One piece in the central area is the most exaggerated and densely packed. It can be said that the emperor is cracked. The four pieces on the edge are slightly better. Judging from the traces of the cracks, it is extended from the middle area.

These protective materials, as well as the underlying solar panels, have to be replaced.

Han Yuan shook his head looking at the protective material that was cracked into bastards underneath.

This can be seen. Currently, these five cracks are the only ones, but I am not sure if there are other problems in the surrounding area.

After all, there are not many things that can be seen with the naked eye, and it needs to be tested by professional instruments to confirm.

If the scope of influence is large, there are quite a few things to replace.

And in addition to protective materials and gallium lanthanide silicon solar panels, some sensitive instruments may also need to be replaced.

The strong magnetic field caused by the lightning strike on the space shuttle can be fatal to some sensitive components on the space shuttle.

Many sensitive components have high requirements on the environment during operation. Not to mention the strong magnetic field caused by lightning, even ordinary magnets attached to them may cause the components to malfunction and lose their function.

Fortunately, the space shuttle returned normally, which is the greatest luck.

As for replacing some protective materials and sensitive components, that's nothing, it's just a matter of spending some technology points and time.

Thinking of this, Han Yuan felt a little strange again.

One is the strange damage to the space shuttle.

He was now inspecting the damage to the space shuttle, and while there was damage, it was not as severe as he had calculated.

Some sensitive components deployed inside the space shuttle did not burn out as expected.

He is ready to burn all the external sensitive components and even the internal sensitive components, including some control chips.

However, after checking along the way, it was found that although some sensitive components were indeed burned due to the strong magnetic field, the number was not very large.

These burned components are basically under the protective material and did not go deep into the interior of the space shuttle.

There is nothing wrong with things like functional chips and component execution chips that worry the Korean Won the most.

The loss is so small that it feels strange.

The second is strange, why there is such a huge lightning in the cirrus cloud carried by the tail wind.

Won did not calculate the situation before because he was worried about the status of the space shuttle.

Now that the space shuttle landed smoothly, he still calculated the log feedback and the size/length of the lightning he saw before.

The lightning that hit the space shuttle was more than seven kilometers long and more than 12 meters wide.

It's incredible.

For a flash of this size to form, only a thunderstorm cloud colliding at super high speed is possible.

Only when the charge accumulated by the thundercloud itself reaches a certain amount, a strong electric field can be formed between different parts in the cloud or between the cloud and the ground.

To form a lightning bolt of the size that hit the Space Shuttle would require an electric field strength as high as [-] volts per square centimeter.

Such a strong electric field is enough to directly penetrate several kilometers of the atmosphere, requiring high-speed hot and cold air to hedge.

As for the tail wind of the typhoon, although the tail wind carried by it moves faster, it cannot carry too much charge because there is not too strong a hedge of hot and cold air.

While collisions occasionally form lightning bolts, ones this large are almost impossible.

Moreover, such a huge lightning, the energy contained in it, and the temperature of the lightning itself cannot be tolerated by the space shuttle.

In addition, the shape of the lightning that hit the space shuttle is also very strange.

It's thick, but it doesn't have any branches, and it's pretty straight, which is incredible.

Looking back now, it feels to Won that the lightning bolt was man-made and aimed at the space shuttle.

The more he thought about it, the more doubtful Han Yuan felt, so he speeded up the inspection, and after testing some key parts, he quickly returned to the control room to call the detailed log.

He wants to see if he can find the reason through the detailed log.

Although the space shuttle Zero is simpler than modern aircraft, there are still a lot of probes and other detectors inside.

The role of these detection elements is here. If something happens to the space shuttle, at least he can know how he died through the log passed back.

Back in the control room, through the special input device, Han Yuan quickly found the log when the lightning struck the space shuttle according to the time conditions.

The logs are all collected by the main function chip and passed back in a unified manner, but they are classified. After being passed to the ground, the central computer will store them in different types of folders according to the classification.

For example, the data transmitted by the temperature detector will be stored in a separate area, and the power reserve of the lithium-sulfur battery will also be stored in a separate area.

For example, the space shuttle was struck by lightning this time, causing damage to sensitive components, as well as damage to some protective materials and solar panels, all of which will be stored in different files.

After some browsing, Han Yuan's brows became more and more wrinkled.

Judging from the log files, this flash of lightning is just as he thought when he checked the space shuttle just now, with all kinds of weirdness.

The first is the temperature. The temperature of this lightning is much lower than that of normal lightning.

Judging from the data recorded by the temperature detector deployed under the damaged protective material and the detector deployed on the conductive device, the instantaneous temperature when the lightning hit the space shuttle was only over 4000 degrees.

Don't look at this temperature is very high, but it is far below the temperature of normal lightning.

You must know that even ordinary white lightning can easily reach a temperature of over [-] degrees, let alone colored lightning.

If it is the purple lightning that contains the highest energy, its temperature can even reach [-] to [-] degrees.

In contrast, the temperature of more than 4000 degrees is nothing.
