Voyage of the Stars

"That is to say, all of these are currently only theoretically feasible?" After understanding the beginning and end of magnetic propulsion technology, Yue Yuan turned around and looked at Liu Miyan and Kabulsu Ultovsky.

Verbally, I hope they will answer that they have done some experiments, but the two of them are the type to say whatever they want, and they will not be perfunctory on this kind of issue.

"Yes, it's still at the theoretical feasibility stage."

The person who replied was Kabulsu Ultovsky, who spoke pure Chinese: “But every technical point and every change detail has been tried using physics simulation software and functionally implemented. The probability is more than 80%, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

And now the model manufacturing application has been sent to the manufacturing department. I believe we will be able to conduct model experimental verification soon. After passing the verification, we can manufacture the sample device and then conduct actual installation testing."

Oh. After hearing this, Yue Yuan understood.

This is the purpose of having the courage to invite myself over for inspection and explaining the technical details such as Alice rings and magnetic pushers in such detail!

Think about it, as a leader, these scientists would not ask Yue Yuan to know any technology, let alone take the initiative to teach him any technology.

The reason why Yue Yuan knows so much is because he has forced himself to learn over the past hundreds of years. After all, under his own leadership, the new government has formulated the line of 'technological governance' and 'science first'. As a leader, it is Set an example.

Moreover, in today's development atmosphere of mankind, it is impossible to be a leader without knowing a little bit of technology, let alone a great leader like him.

If you really don’t know anything about technology, the people below are probably secretly saying that the leader is unqualified.

For this reason, those who were in the management during the Callisto base era have almost all been replaced by new people, and those who replaced them are a new generation of talents who understand technology and management.

Only a few people can work steadily until now.

Although positions related to military power such as Zhu Pite and Manyue Mei were appointed by Yue Yuan personally, due to the pressure of latecomers, the two of them had to understand and learn various things over a long period of time. All kinds of new technologies.

Of course, military personnel like them will not learn everything to become a person who 'knows a little bit of everything', but will specialize in learning new technologies related to warships and the benefits brought by new technologies. Changes in war strategies and tactics and other knowledge.

That is to say, Yue Yuan is so determined to demand himself that he can learn everything.

In order to make himself more knowledgeable, Yue Yuan was even willing to learn a science from scratch. Three hundred years ago, he found a teacher for himself, and it took him seventy years to learn physics from the basics, and relearn the knowledge of each branch of science from its birth to cutting-edge science.

It is also because he demands so much of himself that he has the knowledge and knowledge of a second-tier scientific researcher now.

Of course, this is also due to human lifespan technology. Without a life span of more than a thousand years, he would not be able to accomplish such a thing.

"Well, you want a sample ship?" Yue Yuan raised his eyelids, glanced at Kabulsu Ultovsky, and said directly.

The production of warships requires Yue Yuan's approval. This is a procedural matter. Without his order, the strong artificial intelligence will not start work.

"The commander-in-chief is wise!" Kabulsu Ultovsky, who was struck in his mind, showed a naive smile.

Now that the magnetic thrust model is in production, as long as the various functional data are OK, the sample thruster will be put on the agenda. The sample thruster entered the manufacturing stage, and the high-end ship manufacturing project was naturally launched accordingly.

You can't just find a similar meteorite in space and capture it to test the performance of the thruster!

As soon as this idea came to Kabulsu Ultovsky's mind, he heard Yue Yuan speak: "It stands to reason that it is necessary to build a sample ship, but now the magnetic propulsion technology has not yet produced some real data to convince everyone. , everything is in this simulation model, this is a bit difficult to handle, how about using asteroids instead!

As long as the quality of the asteroids in space is similar to the sample ship we plan to build, it should be no problem to use it for testing. It just so happens that we already have the design drawings of the new generation of warships, and we can probably calculate the quality of the new generation of warships.

And there are quite a few asteroids in this star system. When the time comes, let the astronomical team search for them, and they will be able to find a suitable one. After the sample thruster is built, they can be carried or towed by a Lake-class battleship, and they can be inspected by the way. Based on the technical capabilities of thrusters on asteroids, we humans can kill two birds with one stone. "

ah? ! ! !

Kabulsu Ultovsky was a little confused. He didn't expect that Yue Yuan actually said this method just by silently reciting it in his heart.

Yue Yuan naturally didn't know what Kabulsu Ultovsky was thinking, let alone that he had thought about this idea before.

"So, do you think this method is okay?" Seeing the two of them stunned, Yue Yuan asked another question.

"Commander, I'm afraid this is inappropriate!" Seeing that Kabulsu Ultovsky seemed to be choking, Liu Miyan hurried to face Yue Yuan.

"What's wrong?"

Liu Miyan's mind was spinning rapidly, and in two seconds he came up with two reasons: "The method is inappropriate, for two reasons. First, although our project seems to be testing the feasibility of magnetic propulsion technology, in fact Various tests on new ships can also be carried out simultaneously.

As you know, Commander, the new ships are currently only on the design drawings, and there are no new ship samples tested, so we can take advantage of this opportunity to test the magnetic thrust while also testing the resistance of the new ships. High G impact, high thrust acceleration and deceleration, turning, structural layout, design defects and other issues were tested in practice.

Second, judging from the current development situation, the third-level civilization will definitely have more powerful ships, so I think the project of building new ships is imperative. If we don’t do it now, even if the magnetic push fails in the future, we will eventually If we can find the right route, we will definitely carry out the new ship manufacturing project by then.

Since it is imperative, then why don't we prepare early? This will also save us a lot of time. And the most important point is that we are very confident in the magnetic push. If we do not conduct tests simultaneously with the new ship samples, I am afraid that a lot of time will be wasted in future new ship building projects due to delays in warship testing. "

At this point, Liu Miyan felt that the more he spoke, the more confident he became, so his voice unknowingly turned into a loudspeaker: "Furthermore, the director mentioned testing the ability to propel asteroids. I don't think this kind of test is necessary." It should not be done with test thrusters, but with mature thrusters."

The test sample ship should also use finished mature thrusters.

Hearing Liu Miyan's words, Yue Yuan muttered in his heart, but he did not say it out loud. Instead, he nodded and said: "The reasons are quite sufficient. I agree, but it would be better if you can convince the Ministry of Industry. ”

"No problem, Chief. Our team just wants to say hello to you first. Isn't there a seminar tomorrow? We will convince the Ministry of Industry." Liu Miyan smiled and even changed his title to Yue Yuan. It seemed that he was really serious. Happy.
