Hearing this, Yu Yifeng said with some surprise: "Then why not use this kind of high-efficiency battery to make high-energy weapons?"
What he meant was whether it was possible to use decay batteries to imitate weapons such as Gauss rifles. He was very fond of this weapon that saved his life. Ever since he used it, he felt that human firearms were different from each other.
In comparison, he is even worse than scum...
Yu Yifeng deeply understands that in the future, it will still be the era of electricity and magnetism. Whether it is weapons or other aspects, it will be inseparable from electricity and magnetism technology.
Therefore, he is also very concerned about the issue of high-energy batteries. From daily life and household items to the safety of the entire Noah, they are inseparable from higher-performance batteries.
Electricity is very difficult to store on a large scale. So far, the excess electricity from power stations cannot be stored well and must be used as needed. Although Noah has many backup power stations, the distribution of the power grid is not like that on Earth.
It's so complicated, but from a security perspective, it's still not enough.
If high-energy batteries with large reserves are produced, power security will undoubtedly be improved to a higher level.
Noah is the home of the entire new human civilization. From a safety perspective, it is not as good as the earth, because any ecological system requires human beings to balance themselves. The process during this period is like walking on a single-plank bridge. Human beings cannot be careless. If there is a sudden big disaster,
The dangers of large-scale power outages are self-evident.
And on the other hand, real space weapons must be supported by these super batteries...
Yuriko listened and shook her head quickly: "There are two problems. First, this isotope decay battery is very large and cannot be miniaturized for the time being. It is generally only suitable for larger devices such as satellites. Second, it relies on the decay of elements.
In power generation, the output power is constant and difficult to increase rapidly. For example, laser weapons and particle beam weapons have great requirements on the instantaneous output power of the battery, but the instantaneous acceleration of nuclear fission can easily lead to safety accidents."
"If the technology is not up to standard, the battery is likely to explode... We cannot yet control this problem."
Yu Yifeng frowned and thought about it. This kind of isotope decay battery has been around for decades. If it could really be improved, it would have been improved long ago. It was also because he thought of the problem too simply.
Yuriko continued: "Alien technology does have related creations, but we haven't figured out the principles yet..."
As the two of them talked, Yu Yifeng felt more and more that the technological tree ahead seemed endless...as vast as the sea of stars, and humans had only scratched the surface of some of the bottom layers.
It stands to reason that humans will have to develop for at least hundreds or thousands of years before they can step into the starry sky, but now they have been kicked out of their home star alive...
But now, with the inspiration of these alien creations, one year can catch up with the normal development speed of several decades, and Yu Yifeng is already quite satisfied. People can at least see the development direction of the technology tree.
He burped and felt a little full, but he still had a full stomach and ate crayfish on the bottom of the sea.
This kind of lobster is a fresh product launched in the past six months. The groundwater extracted from Mount Sharp contains high salt content, which can be used to prepare seawater and cultivate some seafood. Thanks to this, the diet on the Noah has also begun to become diversified.
, people’s living conditions are also better.
He looked at it, then suddenly reached out and handed a crayfish to Yuriko, "I'll give you the last one!"
In fact, I didn't think much about it, it was almost subconscious. The two of them had been together for more than two years, and it could be said that they were so familiar that this kind of behavior was nothing.
"Speaking of which, how was the test of the laser ignition system?" Yu Yifeng sat on his seat, wiped his mouth and asked casually.
That was a basic introduction to tetrahydrogen nuclear bombs, and he still cared about it very much. No matter how shortcomings nuclear bombs have, they are still mankind's biggest trump card. This somewhat primitive weapon is extremely powerful, and even lasers and ion cannons cannot match it.
Yuriko thought for a while, and when it came to scientific issues, she became extremely serious, "Now our laser system can instantly ignite 49 hydrogen balls with a diameter of one millimeter at the same time. The current situation can only reach this level. Want to go further?
If we can hit more than a hundred targets, it may take several months of improvement..."
Yu Yifeng said directly: "Time is not a problem. And we now have enough materials and energy, and we will further strengthen support for major laboratories. Speaking of which, our military strength is really too poor, if not
A few good weapons were removed from the flying saucer, and they are really no different from zero."
Yuriko also agreed: "Actually...it's just a decoration. Our electrical energy output is not enough, and the power of the shells produced is estimated to be less than one-tenth of the original version."
"If we really want to use them, first, we need super batteries, and second, we need more powerful energy, and that is - controllable nuclear fusion technology!"
When it came to controllable nuclear fusion technology, the two people suddenly fell silent.
The engine room and power room of the alien flying saucer were completely destroyed, and humans did not get any information about "controllable nuclear fusion". In other words, humans are likely to have to explore this aspect on their own, which is what energy scientists are most sad about.
one thing.
It is foreseeable that in the next few years, almost all technologies will make great progress, except...nuclear fusion!
Controllable nuclear fusion is known as the "ultimate form" of human energy. Once nuclear fusion can generate electricity like nuclear fission, it will be a revolutionary success that subverts the world. Human beings no longer have to be careful when it comes to energy. Because of the materials used in nuclear fusion
, it can be said that it is inexhaustible... but with the current progress of scientific and technological development, this energy technology is still in a far-off state.
"There is no hope for this technology for at least several decades." Yu Yifeng said in a low voice. He had discussed this issue with Ding Yidong, Felix and other big scientists, and they agreed that there was no way to achieve controllability in the short term.
Nuclear fusion technology.
The best result on earth at present is China's national scientific facility, the world's first fully superconducting tokamak, which has achieved a stable 101.2-second long-pulse high-confinement plasma operation.
This kind of achievement only restrains the plasma within a certain range. It is only the first step. There is still a long way to go before formal power generation...
Yu Yifeng felt a little regretful. It would be great if there was controllable nuclear fusion technology. Many alien weapons are based on the extremely large energy consumption of nuclear fusion before they can be used normally.
"We believe that controllable nuclear fusion technology is currently not feasible in engineering. Perhaps it will be possible after our superconducting technology, cooling technology, and magnetic confinement technology are developed..."
Yuriko said calmly: "Of course, the little ball you brought back may be a database and may have relevant information, but the success of decryption is also far away..."
