This is how black technology should be used

Chapter 225 Full bloom

At present, there is only one factory in Fanxing for the industrial production of metal hydrogen in China, and another one has already started construction near the practical science and technology aerospace company.

After that factory is completed, the liquid metal hydrogen fuel of practical technology can be prepared by itself, and it is the kind that is close and cheap.

Moreover, Li will build a nuclear fusion power plant next to it in the future. It is not a first-generation power plant yet. He doesn't like it. If he wants to build it, he will build a second-generation one.

But that depends on the construction of the lunar helium-3 smelter.

Of course, it also depends on the development of super space transportation equipment.

If you want to build a lunar outpost and a helium-3 smelter, you can't rely on the Long March [-] alone.

Although the outpost test module is already the largest equipment that humans have landed on the lunar surface so far, it is only 6 meters in diameter, has a usable cabin height of 5 meters, and a total weight of 35 tons. It cannot meet the needs of humans to stay on the moon for a long time, especially It is the need to develop lunar industrial production.

Therefore, rockets with higher carrying capacity are needed.

As predicted in "Wandering 2", it is a super rocket with a diameter of 15 meters that is being developed by Practical Science and Technology Aerospace Corporation.

The fuel used by this super rocket is also liquid metal hydrogen, and its performance and appearance are amazing. If there is no accident, it will be able to fly for the first time next spring.

And now, there are more urgent things to do on the practical technology side.

Since Practical Technology became famous, its business has become more and more busy, not only to develop its own business, but also to help the development of its partners.

It's in full bloom!
In May, Muyuan was preparing for its three test flights.

After the first flight, it docked with the Starry Space Station in orbit for a period of time. After unloading all the cargo, it returned to the ground carrying some experimental modules that completed the experiment and some household garbage.

Immediately after landing, it was transported away by the National Space Administration.

Before, Fanxing did not have special downlink transportation equipment, so it could only stuff some into the extremely limited space of the return capsule of the manned spacecraft.

Especially those domestic wastes are basically not allowed to be stuffed into the manned return module, and most of them are stuffed into the transport spacecraft and burned in the atmosphere.

In fact, there are many things that can be analyzed in domestic waste, such as the things discharged by astronauts.

Although there is a simple detection device in the space station, it is far from the systematic analysis mechanism on the ground.

If possible, scientists want to test everything the astronauts emit every day.

Unfortunately, no chance.

Then there are the many unpacked packages.

Those packages have actually been opened once, and they are very new. If they can be transported, they can be reused.

It doesn’t matter if there is no money, and it doesn’t cost much to rebuild, but it’s like hoarding various shoe boxes, boxes, and express boxes at home, thinking that it may be useful in the future.

Afterwards, as the boxes piled up more and more, I couldn't put them down, and I still couldn't use them, so I had to throw them away.

The same is true for the Starry Space Station, and even the space station is even more limited, and there is no way to store many empty packages, and there is no way to transport them...

It's not completely impossible. If an empty manned spacecraft is specially launched, they can be transported down.

It's just that there is a way, but the cost... is simply unacceptable, so it can only be thrown into the atmosphere with the cargo spacecraft and burned.

The Wooden Yuan aerospace plane is different. In theory, it can carry 8 astronauts at a time. However, there are 3 astronauts stationed in Fanxing Space Station, and sometimes there are only 6 astronauts in a shift, so the space cannot be used up at all.

If necessary, the remaining cabin space of the Wooden Kite can be converted into a cargo hold, and you can carry a lot of things by the way.

It is still in the testing stage now, and all spaces can be loaded with things, but... the Starry Space Station simply does not have that many things for it to load.

There are drawer-type test cabinets in the cabin of the space station, and an exposed test platform outside. There are many experimental modules on it. They will not stay on the space station forever. After the experiment is over, they need to be transported back to the earth, and then new and different experiments will be carried Module installed.

It's just that their experimental deadlines are all related to the new manned spacecraft, because the new manned spacecraft has a large space, and it can also carry cargo while carrying people.

Unexpectedly, the wooden kite was killed halfway, and many experimental modules have not yet reached the experimental time, so they cannot be transported by the way.

And the wooden kite has prepared a lot of things for the second test flight. In addition to some necessary tests, such as adding a seat, a dummy for testing is fixed on the seat, and some supplies. souvenir.

In fact, the wooden kite brought a lot of souvenirs during its first test flight, but they all belonged to the company, so it also brought a red starry flag and a blue international parliamentary flag.

After returning, Practical Science and Technology Aerospace Company gave the commemorative flag carried by "The First Test Flight of Mankind's First Space Shuttle" to the National Space Administration, and the International Parliamentary Flag was also given to the International Parliament.

But this time, it brought a lot of "outsider" souvenirs.

For example, pictures drawn by children, souvenirs that ordinary people want to send to space, etc., if you sign up for an event through the utility technology aerospace company, you can get a chance after winning the prize.

There are ten places in total.

Of course, the things chosen will not be too...that things, and after receiving them, they will undergo strict and careful inspection and testing, and will not send dangerous things to the starry space station.

After these things are sent up, the astronauts will hold them for a little display, and there will be a live broadcast at that time, which can be regarded as a chance for the parties to take screenshots.

Then, you can send it to Moments to show off.

When the aerospace plane returns, the ten souvenirs will be sent back to Earth and will not be kept in the space station forever.

After all, those things take up a lot of space and are of no use to the space station.

In addition, it is the highlight moment for the partners.

The first is Liuling Xingchen Motors. After two or three months of testing, its sales began to soar.

Of all its sales, about 7% are bought by major taxi companies and car rental companies, and private buyers are not particularly large, accounting for only about 3%.

Because many people find that smart unmanned cars are indeed different from cars that need to be driven, especially after they are convenient for riding and leasing, there is even a "shared smart car" mode, where you can "drive away" by scanning a code, and you can't buy it yourself. It's nothing to buy.

And those who buy cars privately, those who are willing to let smart cars go out to operate and solicit customers, account for about 3% of the number of private car purchases.

After all, if you drive a car to pick up someone, and you are in the car, the passengers will be more honest, but when the smart car picks up people by itself, even if there is monitoring in the car, the passengers will still be "presumptuous".

After all, during the test period of two or three months, people did see some bad phenomena.

This has led to some people being reluctant to "contribute" their cars.

Even smart cars can really earn their own electricity bills.

As for practical technology, the cooperation with Liuling is just the beginning. Now many car companies have also begun cooperation. In addition to conventional cars, super sports cars, off-road vehicles, RVs, and cargo trucks are all under development.

This is a relatively in-depth cooperation, involving many aspects such as batteries, detection modules, and intelligent systems, as well as relatively simple cooperation.

For example, the world-renowned Tianjiang UAV only cooperates with graphene battery modules.

It already occupies a dominant position in the field of consumer drones in the world, and now it uses graphene batteries with a long service life, which is even more popular!
