These experts clearly know that there are only two or three countries in the whole world capable of developing nuclear rockets, and these two or three clocks include their beautiful country. At the same time, their country also has technical reserves in this regard.

In fact, the first country to propose nuclear-powered rockets was not their beautiful country, but it was proposed by their competitor Arctic country as early as the 70s and [-]s. At that time, the beautiful country and the Arctic country were engaged in a cold war. At that time The contest between the two countries is all-round, and this includes the space field.

Therefore, in order to be able to catch up with the beautiful country in the space field, the scientists of the Arctic country at that time put forward the idea of ​​building a nuclear-powered rocket after integrating their own technology and the technology obtained from the beautiful country.

However, due to the financial problems of the Arctic country, this project was canceled before the Arctic country weakened.

However, what most people don’t know is that after the Arctic country proposed the nuclear-powered rocket project at that time, their country also secretly carried out research on similar technologies. After all, for the beautiful country at that time, things owned by the Arctic state were beautiful. The country must have it, and it must be technologically more advanced than the other side.

At this time, the expert said again; "From a technical point of view, nuclear-powered rockets are definitely the most achievable technology in our country at the current level of technology. Of course, there are also many difficulties. There are three main technical difficulties. First of all, it is the same as the aerospace engine of the Dahua Empire before. It is also a material problem, because after the launch of the power rocket, it will form extremely high pressure, and the pressure presented is far lower than that of the engine. Higher than ordinary rockets, of course, the temperature will become extremely high due to the consumption of nuclear fuel. This is only relative to the level of our beautiful country at that time.

Now, more than half a century has passed since the time when the idea was proposed at that time. We human beings and our beautiful country’s technological level has not been what it used to be, and we have made great progress in materials. If we invest heavily in this area, we want to It is not impossible to develop corresponding materials.

The second is the requirements for nuclear fuel. According to our inference at that time, the nuclear fuel required by power rockets must be high-concentration nuclear fuel. Generally speaking, the purity requirement for nuclear fuel in general nuclear power plants is more than 20%, but The purity of nuclear fuel required for nuclear-powered rockets must reach more than 90%. Of course, there is no difficulty for us.

The last and most important thing is the radiation problem caused by the operation of nuclear-powered rockets. We all know that for spaceflight, especially manned spaceflight, how to ensure the safety of astronauts is the most important thing. If nuclear-powered rockets are used If so, how to prevent astronauts from being affected by radiation is the most critical. At the same time, nuclear-powered rockets essentially use the shocks generated by explosions to obtain power. I think everyone knows about the radiation generated by nuclear explosions. This poses even more challenges to us, but no matter what, this is the most ideal spaceflight method that our country can achieve with its current level of technology. "After speaking, the scientist sat back in his seat.

Afterwards, the scientists present discussed the nuclear-powered rocket project he proposed, and finally came to the result that their country could overcome the above difficulties and manufacture a nuclear-powered rocket in a short period of time.

After their discussion, various relevant departments of the beautiful country secretly began to develop more than a rocket project, hoping to realize cheap spaceflight as soon as possible.

However, what they didn't know was that on the third day after their discussion, what they discussed in this meeting was learned by their old opponent, the Arctic State.

"Hello, gentlemen, all the most famous aerospace and nuclear experts in our country are here to participate in the seminar. Now, although our Arctic country is facing various difficulties, with the joint efforts of all of you, our Arctic country China's national strength is still gradually recovering.

However, since the Great China Empire successfully developed the aerospace plane and then launched their country's space project, the world situation has undergone tremendous changes. The earth is no longer the commanding heights that the world's major powers compete for. It has begun to turn its attention to the more distant and richer space.

However, except for the Great China Empire, all countries in the world now use the method of spaceflight that uses chemical fuels for propulsion. The cost of such spaceflight is very high. We can't take it, so we have to make a change, which is why I called you here.

Just the day before yesterday, the intelligence department of our Arctic country got the exact news that the beautiful country restarted their country's power rocket project, so I would like to ask everyone, how about our Arctic country's power rocket technology reserves?If these projects are restarted, how long will it take to develop a nuclear-powered rocket that can actually be used? "The head of the space department of the Arctic country asked these scientists.

After listening to the words of the person in charge of their national aerospace department, a nuclear expert immediately stood up and replied: "Sir! Although our country has experienced a catastrophe before, we still have very good technical information on nuclear-powered rockets." It is complete and has not been lost due to the catastrophe of the past.

This technology was about to be developed when the country ordered us to cancel the plan at that time. If we restart the rocket project now, although many experts who used to participate in the development of nuclear-powered rockets are no longer alive, However, since the technology is almost successful, as long as there is enough capital and personnel input, then I can guarantee that we can definitely develop a nuclear-powered rocket that can be used within one to two years. "

After listening to the expert's words, everyone present nodded, and no one expressed doubts, because these people here clearly knew that this expert was a participant in their country's nuclear-powered rocket project, and he was still working on the project. in important positions.

After listening to his words, the person in charge of their country's aerospace department nodded happily. At the same time, he was very grateful that these materials were not lost in the original catastrophe. You must know that their country spent dozens of dollars on these nuclear-powered rocket technology materials. It was obtained after years of research and development. If it is lost, it is true that there is no place to cry.

"That's good! I will report this matter to the president of our country later, and the country will allocate a lot of funds to you, and all you have to do is to develop nuclear-powered rockets as soon as possible, at least in the beautiful country Nuclear-powered rockets have been developed before."
