Chapter 98 No more hesitation
After seeing Mr. Ye off, Fan Ren dealt with the task of arranging the next experimental project. He locked the office door, half-lying on the sofa, squinting his eyes, and letting his consciousness sink into his mind.
Basic Science: Level 1 (359/1000)
Electronics: Level 1 (440/1000)
Mechanics: Level 1 (470/1000)
Materials Science: Level 1 (530/1000)
Astronautics: Level 1 (139/1000)
Nearly a year has passed, and with the completion of a number of technological research and developments, the experience value on the "Spark of Civilization" data panel in Fan Ren's mind has increased significantly.
Unlock: Quantum communication technology.
Unlocks: Nuclear Fusion Engine Technology.
Unlocks: Space Refinery Blueprint.
Unlocks: Basic Space Modular Factory blueprint.
Unlocks: Spaceship Construction Dock Blueprint.
Sure enough.
Through the previous three unlockings, Fan Ren learned that as long as his professional knowledge increases, his experience points can be increased, and technologies will be gradually unlocked according to the technology tree.
But now, when he saw these technologies related to space development, his guesses were gradually confirmed.
This so-called "Spark of Civilization" system is pushing him towards space.
Quantum communication technology is an ultra-long-distance real-time communication technology that utilizes quantum superposition and entanglement effects.
This is extremely important in the future development of space.
Taking the 1 million kilometers between the Earth and Mars as an example, it takes 5 minutes and 33 seconds for light to travel this distance. That is, when humans use electromagnetic wave communication technology, the signal sent from the Earth needs to travel 5 minutes and 33 seconds before it can be received by Mars.
This communication delay has a huge impact on the communication between the two.
Theoretically, quantum communication technology can achieve zero-delay real-time communication between points A and B over an infinite distance by relying on the characteristics of quantum entanglement. (Note: 1)
This will be a very important technology when humans step into space in the future.
For example, if we rely on the speed of light communication, it is possible that Mars says something to Earth, and it takes 5 minutes for Earth to receive it. Then the reply is sent, and it takes another 5 minutes for Mars to receive it, so the delay in between will be up to 10 minutes.
This is unimaginably slow given the millisecond-level delay effect that humans are currently pursuing.
There is even the possibility of causing significant losses as a result.
With quantum communication technology, this embarrassing situation no longer exists.
Next is the engine technology based on the controlled nuclear fusion technology that has just been developed.
This technology can directly convert the energy generated by nuclear fusion reactions into kinetic energy, thereby generating thrust.
This is also an extremely important necessity in future space voyages that will easily cover hundreds of millions of kilometers.
Space Refinery Blueprint.
As the name suggests, it means moving the ore refinery directly into space to directly refine the ore.
Then to the blueprint of modular factories in space.
This is an upgraded version of the "Mechanical Automated Factory Blueprint" obtained previously. The only difference is that the part that is not applicable to the earth has been modified to be suitable for the space environment, and it can carry out modular production and assembly of space construction factories.
Fanren pondered for a long time. Standing at the crossroads of the future heading into space and continuing to waste time on Earth, he hesitated.
"Through the live broadcast, we can see that these five Star Series launch vehicles produced by Daxia Xinghai Technology Company will be responsible for the transportation of Spieth's first-stage Mars space station, astronauts, and life support systems.
Oh!
Everyone, please look behind me, the first Starship series rocket has been ignited and launched, it really looks spectacular! "
The live broadcast of the launch was broadcast on TV, and the female commentator's sweet voice was filled with incredible exclamation.
Fan Ren opened his eyes and looked. Although he had seen the scene of a rocket launching several times, it still gave him an indescribable shock.
Today is the day when the first phase of Spieth's "Mars Project" officially enters the space launch stage.
Without the commentator's detailed introduction, Fan Ren also knew that these five rocket ships adopted a large number of technologies from Xinghai Technology. After launch, they would enter the autonomous navigation stage of the intelligent system and would directly enter the Earth-Mars orbit.
If nothing goes wrong, these rocket ships carrying ten astronauts will reach Mars' synchronous orbit in 200 days.
At that time, the construction of the Mars synchronous orbit command center will be completed as soon as possible, followed by further mapping and safety assessment of the landing site. Only after it is confirmed that there is no risk, the remaining three spacecraft will land on the surface of Mars one after another.
One of the spacecraft is fully loaded with fuel so that it can respond to other emergencies at any time.
Fan Ren turned off the TV and closed his eyes again.
“Start embracing technology.”
Although Mark, who is nearly 50 years old, has had some pauses in the middle, he has begun to take the initiative to fulfill his promise anyway.
So how could Fan Ren possibly fall behind his former idol?
Whether it is for Daxia or for the development of Xinghai, even for the safety of the boss Li Jian on the moon and the improvement of the living standards of many astronauts busy in the lunar base.
Fan Ren, who was in charge of all this, had no reason to stop moving forward at this time.
Linhai, Xinghai Technology Headquarters.
"Mr. Jin, what do you think of the first phase of the Mars project that Spieth and his company carried out yesterday? It is reported that your company has invested nearly 100 billion yuan in the lunar project. Why did Xinghai Technology invest so much money in the worthless moon?"
Jin Qiaoying looked at the white-skinned reporter who couldn't speak standard Mandarin with disgust in her eyes.
"Spieth and his company used our Xinghai launch vehicle for their trip to Mars. On behalf of Xinghai, I would like to express my best wishes to them.
Regarding the lunar project, I have no comment for now. Xinghai Technology is a non-listed company and the use of funds does not need to be announced to the social media. "
She still looked confident. After she said this, Shan Qin had already rushed over. Shan Qin, wearing a black suit, neatly separated the crowd and made way for Jin Qiaoying with a cold face.
Previously, at Fan Ren's request, she was transferred to be responsible for the personal security of Xinghai's general manager.
Of course, this has been approved by Mr. Ye.
After entering the company elevator and coming out, Shan Qin caught a sharp eye of a tall figure sitting at the door of the office.
This is his younger brother Shan Wu.
"Boss Jin, good morning. Boss Fan is waiting for you inside."
The secretary stood up and greeted him, then pointed inside the office.
She nodded, turned to Shan Qin and said, "Go for a walk with your brother. I don't have anything to do here for the time being." Then she pushed the door open and walked in.
"it is good."
The brother and sister looked at each other, and then Shan Wu followed her silently and walked out.
(Note 1: Since quantum space does not have the ability to transmit traditional information, this statement has not been confirmed at present. It is mainly brought up here because of the content of the novel.)
