"It's smoother than expected, but is there really no problem with load? The module body alone is 104 tons. If materials are added, will the rocket's carrying capacity really work?" Some people are still worried.

Du Xingyu said: "Absolutely. Besides, we still have space flight transportation supplies and personnel. This life space module is very good!"

The International Space Station, led by the United States, can only accommodate six astronauts at a time and live for about half a year.

Moreover, their "bedroom" was very narrow, like a pile of trucks filled with supplies, forcibly stuffing a few people into it.

This life space module has multiple connection ports. When it is formed into a space station, multiple modules can be connected.

After completing the first one, the team's second space module is also being transformed.

"The second seat is the power space module, and solar panels will be the main source of energy." Du Xingyu simulated the power space module on the technology simulator.

There are many ways to design power space modules. If it is nuclear power, the energy will be much stronger. However, considering the safety, technical limitations and inconvenient space maintenance issues, it is best to design it as solar energy at present.

Anyway, Tiangong will be a hybrid structure with multiple modules, truss structures and building blocks. In the future, more advanced power modules can also be added to it.

"Invest 100,000 energy points and start the design of the power space module..."

“R&D failed.”

"Invest another 100,000 energy points, and try the second time..." Du Xingyu wanted to design a nuclear fission energy system for power space once and for all. The principle is similar to the fission reactor in the previous nuclear-powered rocket thruster.

"In the process of simulation... Structural simulation is completed, particle reaction simulation is completed..."

"Crisis simulation, solar storm."

In the technology simulator, solar activity intensifies, resulting in a strong solar storm. Electromagnetic radiation, high-energy charged particles and plasma clouds ejected, reaching extraterrestrial space.

Because there is no protection from the atmosphere, the power space module is directly exposed to the solar storm and is severely affected.

Technology Simulator: "Warning, serious electromagnetic interference, protection system launch failure... nuclear leak occurred... Simulation astronauts have died, damage level assessment is 70%, simulation failed."

"Failed again?" Du Xingyu was a little depressed. The design of the space station is different from that of the aerospace plane. The space station moves slowly and cannot be kept away from particle interference like the aerospace plane.

It needs to be exposed to space for many years and face various space radiation, so that nuclear energy cannot be used for the time being.

"Let's use solar energy and chemical energy for the time being!" Du Xingyu picked up his confidence and started the simulation again.

"This time, using super-folded solar panels will maximize the wingspan and increase the available solar energy..."

"Structural simulation is completed, operation simulation is completed, energy collection...the power system simulation begins..."

"The crisis simulation begins...a space garbage collision simulation is underway..."

In Du Xingyu's mind, the power space was being collided with sun garbage, but just before the space garbage hit, a robotic arm appeared in the power space, and it grabbed the small space garbage in advance.

For the design here, he also borrowed the creativity of the space garbage capture device of Wang Wei and others.

"Space garbage has been captured...the power system failure simulation begins..."

"The simulation of the power space module was completed, and the R&D progress was 100%!" After repeated attempts, Du Xingyu completed the simulation of another module.

"Do it in one go!" Du Xingyu did not stop and continued to develop the next module, the workspace module. This will be the daily work place for astronauts. Many observation and scientific research equipment are required to be installed here, which is not simpler than other modules!

For three days, Du Xingyu modified the power space module and work space module that needed to be launched in one breath.

The life space module, the power space module and the work space module are the three modules to be launched for the first time by the Tiangong Space Station.

These three modules can be launched to meet the basic space life and work needs of astronauts.

The subsequent scientific research space modules, medical space modules, etc. have to wait for subsequent manufacturing and launch docking.

The transformation of the power space module and the working space module is underway. During this period, another incident has happened in the international aerospace industry to target China Aerospace.

The International Aerospace Conference was held in the United States. As the host, the US aerospace community discussed aerospace cooperation issues with countries around the world.

As a space power, China is naturally also invited and should be an important member of the conference.

But just as China's aerospace experts were preparing to go to the United States, the United States rejected the visa application from the China aerospace experts delegation!

If you cannot pass the visa, the China Aerospace delegation will not be able to go to the United States and will not be able to participate in this World Aerospace Conference!

"Shameless, extremely shameless!" He Jingcheng, the leader of the team leader in the China Aerospace delegation, was furious.

During this period, China Aerospace has made great achievements and is about to communicate with its peers around the world to see if it can start more cooperation. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, the Americans actually got their visas!

"The most annoying thing is that they reported that we were deliberately absent from the conference!" A member of the delegation said angrily, "It's so shameless!"

"Now, I can't participate in the World Space Conference that I have been preparing for for so long!"

"Can we communicate with them? We complete the procedures and apply for a visa for us."

"Communication? If you want to add a crime, you have no choice! They are determined not to let us attend the World Aerospace Conference!" He Jingcheng finished speaking, sighed and said, "There is nothing we can do, this matter has exceeded our ability."

"His grandma!" The old professor, who has always been civilized, couldn't help but swear, "What kind of conference is this? If you don't go, don't go! In the future, we will hold the International Aerospace Conference ourselves, so we don't have to look at Lao Mi's expression!"

"What should I do now?" someone asked.

"What else can I do? Let's go home! Go back to the research institute!" He Jingcheng said helplessly.

There are five days left, and the World Space Conference will begin, but they probably can't go.

...

"World Aerospace Conference, the Americans deliberately refused to issue visas to our delegation?" Du Xingyu was quite angry when he learned the news.

"The development of aerospace technology is not up to the American family to decide. They plan to unite with other countries to block us!"

"This is another move. Do they have no new tricks?" Xiong Ming calmly drank tea. He had experienced this kind of thing many times.

"Uncle Master!" Du Xingyu said to Xiong Ming, "The three modules of the Heavenly Palace have been transformed and tested, so why not launch them in advance!"

"Start early?" Xiong Ming thought to himself, "It was originally scheduled to launch in twenty days... If it was ahead, the preparation time would be a bit short."

"Enough!" Du Xingyu said, "There is no problem with the space station itself. Starry Sky 2 and Starboat can perform missions repeatedly on the rocket and spacecraft. They have been repaired and can be launched at any time."

"There are no launch missions recently. We just need to follow the conventional launch process of satellites! Starry Sky 2 and Starry Sky Boat are enough to send three space modules to the sky!"
Chapter completed!
