This is how black technology should be used

Chapter 163 The Military Fan Ceiling

Just like what Li Future said, the methods, technologies and processes they use to manufacture the Long March [-] super-heavy rocket are different from what they had imagined before.

Common-bottom storage tanks used to reduce weight and height have been used by the Freedom Federation. It is not a new technology, but the latest wireless transmission technology is used on rockets, so that the rocket does not have a single cable. This has never happened before. of.

There is also the emergence of the Eagle [-] reusable rocket, which has also changed people's perception of rockets.

The achievements of aerospace technology have brought great benefits to human beings, but the high launch costs have discouraged people and hindered the rapid development of human space activities. It has always been people's expectation to reduce launch costs and reduce the cost of entering space.

Therefore, 50 years ago, someone proposed a plan to develop a reusable vehicle, with the goal of reducing launch costs through reusable technology.

Just like the space shuttle.

But the actual results of the shuttle were just the opposite of what was expected.

Although the Freedom Federation has made a major breakthrough in the technology of the space shuttle, it has not achieved the expected goal in terms of economic operation, and even the launch price per unit payload weight is higher than that of conventional one-time use launch vehicles.

The main problem is that the space shuttle uses a large number of new technologies, which makes the launch operation too complicated, the booster and heat-resistant structure do not meet the expected reuse rate, and a series of problems such as the mixture of manned and cargo, resulting in a significant increase in launch costs.

Just like a huge passenger aircraft, it will fly tens of thousands of times in its "lifetime", so compared to the money it earns, its manufacturing cost and maintenance cost are both acceptable.

But the space delivery equipment is different. It needs to pass through the atmosphere frequently. The high temperature of thousands of degrees, friction and vibration will cause a lot of damage to the equipment.

Just like small profits but quick turnover, if the quantity does not increase, the cost will be difficult to come down.

Therefore, on the basis of learning the lessons from the development of the space shuttle, the Freedom Federation tried to solve the existing problems of the space shuttle with a single-stage orbital reusable carrier. They believed that the operation of the single-stage orbital reusable carrier could be as simple as an airplane , free take-off and landing.

With the development of space activities, people not only hope to use rockets to send satellites, spacecraft and other payloads into space, but also hope to return some of their key components, key equipment, and experimental results from space to the ground.

The advent of the space shuttle inspired people to reuse launch vehicles. The development of launch vehicle technology has also made it possible to develop reusable launch vehicles. The low-cost requirements of commercial launch services have also made the need for reusable launch vehicles increasingly urgent.

Moreover, with the development of science and technology and the development of demand, people are launching more and more aerospace equipment, and even the "Interstellar Link" project alone will launch tens of thousands of satellites. A rocket, let alone a private company, even the country can't carry it.

So Interstellar Exploration Corporation developed the Eagle [-] rocket and the Big Eagle rocket.

Fortunately, Eagle [-] is the main force for carrying the "Starlink" satellites. It will be launched every month, and it has also obtained a manned contract to help transport astronauts to the International Space Station, and has other transport contracts. Dozens of launches are made each year.

But the Big Eagle rocket is no good. It has only been launched a few times since its development. One of them was to launch a sports car of its own company for advertising.

The reason is that there are not many devices on the earth that need it to be launched. Small devices can use small rockets, and large devices... To be honest, the Big Eagle rocket can carry 60 tons of cargo into space, but its fairing is too small Yes, it is as big as the fairing of the Eagle 20 with a carrying capacity of [-] tons.

Its rocket body is only 3.7 meters in diameter, and the fairing is not that big no matter how big it is.

Even if there is really big equipment for it to be transported, it may not be able to be transported.

Just like the Tianhe core module of the Tiangong space station, it only weighs more than 20 tons, and the Big Eagle can transport 60 tons. Isn't that trivial?
Actually not, because its fairing won't fit.

Of course, because the laws of the Freedom Federation do not allow it, the space cooperation between the two parties is against the law.

The boss of Interstellar Exploration also knows this, especially the fairing is too small, so it made a bigger rocket, the interstellar spacecraft super rocket with a diameter of 9 meters.

It is also reusable, and the goal is directly set to manned landing on Mars!
As a person who is good at breaking the rules, Emeron uses the mature aerospace technology platform of the Freedom Federation to create one amazing work after another.

Fanxing's aerospace development has been in the catching-up stage before, and the funds are so small, many things are developed without development, but now they have a bigger plan, and there is quite advanced technical support, they can't turn the corner coming.

"Indeed, it's time to be bold!"

"Hahaha, that's right. In this era of changing circumstances, we can no longer be conservative in our thinking."

"Hey, it depends on the young people. Their brains are much more flexible than ours. For example, Consultant Li, he is very powerful. It's not just a matter of imagination, but also his technical strength..."

"Yeah, I'll see these young people in the future..."

………………

If Fanxing is adapting to changes, then the Federation of Freedom is changing itself. The situation between the last manned moon landing and this manned moon landing is much different.

Just like when the SLS rocket was moved to the launch position, those messy people almost gave the old man a heart attack.

There's nothing I can do about it. When I was young, I never saw such a posture. At most, it was discrimination, anti-government, parade, hey grass, hippies, X liberation, homosexuality...

Um, well, in some people's eyes, there is no difference, but in some people's eyes, the gap is huge.

But no matter what, the government once again raised the banner of manned landing on the moon, and this was the beginning of another journey to the top.

If those messy things are not easy to manage, then just ignore them, as long as you set a higher, bigger, and more attractive goal, and divert those complicated attentions.

Only this time, there is always one thing that cannot be avoided.

After the SLS rocket took off smoothly, throwing away the sections of the rocket, it successfully entered space, and after a few days of flight, it successfully reached the lunar orbit.

Because the lunar module has not been developed yet, it is only that the Orion spacecraft is unmanned around the moon, but it is not really unmanned. A dummy is installed inside to test the reliability of the Orion spacecraft.

At the same time, I also used high-definition equipment to shoot the picture of the moon, and then used the big antenna to send it back to the earth, so that everyone can watch the live broadcast, which can be regarded as a test for the subsequent manned moon landing live broadcast.

After the successful return of the Orion spacecraft in early July, the first flight of SLS and the first phase of the mission to return to the moon can be regarded as a perfect end, which also represents the official start of the return to the moon program.

Both the SLS rocket and the Orion manned spacecraft were successful, so the 10 previously selected astronaut candidates for the Artemis program should officially enter the training and selection stage for astronauts on the moon.

But when determining the selection criteria, they disagreed.

When these astronaut candidates were first selected, the deputy commander declared: "It is very important to us to land the first woman and the first person of color on the surface of the moon."

Now the deputy commander has changed, replaced by a female deputy commander of African and peacock descent. As a woman, she will definitely insist on the first woman landing on the moon. As for who the other is, she doesn't care.

She doesn't care, but someone does.

Women are identified, and some people think that other "colored people" should be given to African-Americans, which is the privilege of African-Americans.

After all, all the astronauts who landed on the moon last time were of Caucasian race. The reason why there were no African-Americans was because of discrimination. Therefore, African-American astronauts must be allowed to land on the moon now.

African-Americans can be said to be the largest group of people of color in the Free Federation, but other people of color did not give up this opportunity, saying that they were also discriminated against at the beginning.

Later, they found that pure skin color could not fight well, so they began to gradually add BUFF.

Sexual minority groups began to stand out, just like the speeches made by those groups that day when the rocket was transferred.

And LGBTQ doesn't work anymore, it has spawned more groups now, it's already LGBTQIAPKD!
Even "a woman", how can you assume the gender of "TA" in advance, in case "TA" is genderless or random?
"TA" can be the gender of "excavator" today, and the gender of "Optimus Prime" tomorrow. Why is it a woman?

Even if you insist on putting a woman on the moon, the place for the "person of color" must go to the LGBTQIAPKD group.

Or if you really don’t want to, then simply let the No.3 astronauts belong to the LGBTQIAPKD group, and then the three of them will go to the moon together!
If it doesn't work, then we will organize a big parade, and even attack Congress!
It's not that the Congress has never been attacked before. Even the podium used by the commander-in-chief to speak was snatched and put up for online auction.

Many people know that the small group in the Freedom Federation made a big fuss, but they didn't expect it to be so big.

But there is no way, this is cultivated by the Freedom Federation itself, let them solve it by themselves.

I dare not say it, but the successful first flight of the SLS rocket and the success of the Orion spacecraft orbiting the moon and returning to the earth still brought people a different feeling.

Humans have finally begun to look up at the stars again, instead of fighting on the earth.

Of course, the fight is no longer on the earth, this time it is on the moon.

Although it is not stated explicitly, anyone who pays attention to this aspect knows that the two sides are going to have a space race.

Yes, only two sides, the Free Federation and the Starry Republic, did not have Lucia who inherited most of the old Maozi's aerospace heritage.

It stands to reason that its aerospace technology is quite powerful, and now the International Space Station has half of its shares, but it is running out of money.

No money, nothing.

So in the only battlefield, the Freedom Federation has already exerted its strength, what are the stars doing?
"Is there no official news about our manned moon landing plan?"

"Yeah, the Freedom Federation has already made a move, shouldn't we accept it?"

"What's the trick? Don't we always follow our own steps?"

"You can't do it if you don't accept the move. People all over the world are watching."

"That's right, take the move, take the move!"

Well, Fanxing netizens have a habit of comparing Fanxing with foreign countries, and there is a rule when comparing Fanxing, that is, do not compare behind Fanxing, compare with the most powerful.

It’s okay to compare like this, catch the most powerful one and compare it hard, and it’s good to have a goal to catch up and spur yourself.

It’s not that it’s impossible, it’s just that one is not enough, because there is no perfect country in the world, even if it is recognized as the strongest Freedom Federation, its strongest field is only a part, and other places are even more hip than the stars.

Therefore, Fanxing’s netizens artificially created a "strongest country with all-round perfection", that is, comparing national power with the Freedom Federation, welfare with Europa, environment with Maya, machinery with Weimar, and rules. To compare with Izumo...

There are even madness, the original ecology is compared with Africa.

Yes, in the eyes of some netizens, although there is nothing in Africa, 95% of the places are full of hips, but in the original ecology, Fanxing is rubbish compared to other people in Africa.

Of course, you can say that this is the earnest hope of the netizens for Fanxing, hoping that Fanxing will become a hexagonal warrior, or you can say that they are full of food and deliberately belittle Fanxing.

So what is Fanxing doing here?

record the show.

After the powered exoskeleton was launched in Fanxing, people learned about it through a war in an African country, but since it was a war in another country, they must have shown their own fighting will and quality. As for the equipment... unimportant.

So although people learned from Gisenelli that Fanxing's powered exoskeleton can be used in actual combat, and it is still very powerful, people don't have an accurate concept of how powerful it is.

If possible, people also want to know about its specific capabilities, and it is best to watch it at close range with ultra-high-definition quality.

So, this is the time to invite Brother Jie, the military fan ceiling.

Known as the "ceiling of military fans", Brother Jie naturally has his own unique advantage, that is, military equipment that ordinary military fans can only see in books and videos, he can see uncensored physical objects on site, and even It’s time to try it out.

In addition, he is a military fan himself, so he made a program "Military and Military Live", hoping to introduce more military equipment and contemporary military appearance to other military fans.

In fact, he has done a program about exoskeletons before. The program was called "Mecha Recruits-Domestic Exoskeletons and Combat Robots". He introduced both unpowered exoskeletons and powered exoskeletons and used them personally. Thinking that one year has passed, they have made such great progress!

Then you have to go to the scene to see what you say!

At the beginning, he reported to the higher authorities, but the higher authorities did not agree, but he was not discouraged, because he saw a large number of netizens being privately messaged by his background.

They also want to see powered exoskeletons.

So when he integrated a large number of netizens' suggestions into the report and submitted it again, the higher-ups discussed it and finally agreed.
