Zhao Ye's idea was taken away by people from the Aerospace Academy, including this model.
They have to organize experts to conduct demonstrations to see the feasibility of this plan. But to be honest, the number of people who can draw conclusions about this idea is estimated to be no more than one person nationwide.
This thing is so high-end that people from the Aerospace Academy stayed with Zhao Ye for two days. They couldn't understand the complex theoretical designs alone. This system involves too many scientific fields. They
He is just an expert in aerospace, and he only knows a little bit about materials science, physics, engineering, etc.
This is not because they are self-effacing. In front of a great master like Zhao Ye, they really don’t have the courage to speak clearly.
Zhao Ye started his usual life again. Every day he was either in the laboratory, in the classroom, or at home. He rarely took care of the group's affairs. At the monthly meeting, he would listen to everyone's reports and make decisions.
Just some big principles and policies would be enough, and he was too lazy to waste energy on the rest.
In this way, summer goes to winter, winter goes to spring. A year goes by in the blink of an eye.
This day was in May 1988. Zhao Ye received a notice requiring him to attend a special meeting.
He suddenly became excited. During this year, he communicated frequently with the people in the demonstration team, and his idea gradually became more and more feasible from an idea to the discussion.
The biggest obstacle now is how to obtain a sufficient amount of metallic hydrogen. You know, just for their device, even if the weight of the projectile is controlled at about five tons, the amount of metallic hydrogen required for this device is still huge. At least for the current situation
The meager output will not be enough for decades.
But, wouldn’t it stop development? Of course that’s not possible.
Whether it is artificial intelligence or nuclear fusion, it seems that aerospace engineering needs to be developed first, at least that's what Zhao Ye said. In these fields, Zhao Ye plays a very important role. No one can ignore what he said.
Of course, the country is also very cautious when making such a major decision. This is not a small project, and it still needs to be built in a place with high mountains. The manpower and material resources that need to be invested can build a railway of thousands of kilometers.
, and the railway is still being built in areas with mountains and valleys.
Such a large-scale project relies solely on a theoretical solution that does not seem very reliable. This determination is very difficult to make.
Of course, if it can be accomplished, there will be many benefits. At the very least, it will allow our aerospace engineering to step into the forefront of the world. If nothing else, just launching satellites into outer space will cost us very much.
Very low, so low that it only requires a little power.
This does not include the possibility of carrying out large-scale space experiments. Space experiments are also very important. Their impact on the country is in all aspects. The two superpowers have spared no effort to develop space technology in the past few years, and even put people
They have all been sent to the moon. Without certain interest support, they would not spend so much effort.
But the specific interests that support their desperate efforts to develop space technology are very intriguing.
Anyway, Zhao Ye didn't know the reason other than the official statement.
But it was just an official reason. From a scientific perspective, Zhao Ye found it somewhat untenable.
The level of the meeting is very high. Although there are not many participants, they are all top leaders in related fields. This meeting is not so much a demonstration meeting as a decision-making meeting.
Of course, demonstration work has also been done. Although the engineering community said that it is very difficult in this regard, as long as it is not an area with complex geological environment, it should be able to be overcome in construction.
Physics experts said that this solution should be feasible in theory, but there are many problems that need to be solved.
There are many experts in the aerospace field. What they are most concerned about is whether low overload can be achieved, and it is best to control it within the range that the human body can bear. In this way, the significance of this project becomes more obvious.
Zhao Ye only said one sentence. "Lihua is confident that he can solve all the problems he encounters!"
The only question now is whether to build such a thing?
No one can answer this kind of question.
The risks here are too great, and the opinion of the expert group is actually very clear, which is to wait and see to what extent Lihua or Zhao Ye can solve the problem.
Then there is the most critical issue, how to obtain such a large amount of metallic hydrogen.
Regarding this problem, Zhao Ye's idea is to either increase production intensity and build more processing plants. In this way, the supporting power required will be an astronomical figure.
The other is to use his spatial ability to copy, copy, and copy in large quantities. This plan is simple and crude, but the sequelae are very serious. For example, how did Zhao Ye obtain such a large amount of materials? This question, no matter what, he
He can't explain it clearly. Maybe because of this, he will lose other people's trust in him.
So these two plans were not ideal, so he could only use space to come up with a more mature plan. That was mining.
Yes, mining. This kind of material also exists on the earth, but the place where it is buried is very special.
…
At the meeting, when Zhao Ye proposed this plan, everyone present was shocked by Zhao Ye's words!
Does this kind of material actually exist on the earth? Wasn't this made by Zhao Ye through a spiral ring press? Why does this kind of material still exist on the earth?
"Of course there is such a substance on the earth, otherwise where did the metallic hydrogen come from when I first built the ring press?" Zhao Ye said matter-of-factly.
But he can be sure of one thing, there is only one place on earth where this kind of material exists. This is not something he analyzed, but something he said systematically.
"Where is this kind of mineral?" Everyone here became excited. If this could be obtained directly from nature, this guy would be great. You know, the electricity consumed to produce one gram of metallic hydrogen is staggering.
If it is obtained directly from nature, no matter how high the cost is, it cannot be much higher.
"Zhao Ye, do you know where this kind of mineral deposit is? How did you know about it?" The relevant leaders took this issue very seriously and the attitude of asking questions was also very serious.
"Just below the roof of our world, about twelve kilometers deep."
"What? Twelve kilometers deep? How can we mine this?" Several people were shocked and stunned.
