In the void between the earth and the moon, on an anti-gravity spaceship with the logo of Galaxy Technology Group, Qin Yi woke up from his sleep, rubbed his eyes slightly, then came to the window and looked outside.
The stars are dotted in the eternal darkness, and the light from distant time and space is so charming that people can't help but want to follow the stars to pursue the scenery on the other side.
At this time, we are very close to the moon. It has long lost its brightness and the desolate surface can be clearly seen in space. Occasionally, we can see the lunar bases on the moon surface with the naked eye.
The 'Dragon's Nest' space factory is constantly zooming into the field of vision. The closer you get, the more realistically you can experience this behemoth. The anti-gravity spacecraft Qin Yi is riding is as big as a house.
But in front of this huge factory, it is like a small dot, slowly approaching, everything is constantly magnifying, until everything outside the entire window is blocked by the huge figure of the 'Dragon's Nest' factory.
"The second phase of the project has been completed, and the design of the Qinglong has also been completed, and construction can officially start."
Qin Yi retracted his thoughts and drifted towards the 'Dragon's Nest' factory.
Moving in space without gravity is actually a very difficult thing, especially if there is no place around you to lean on, and you will be trapped in one place and unable to move.
But if there is strength, just push it gently with your hands and feet, and the whole person can move forward lightly in one direction. Theoretically, in the absence of friction, it can keep flying like this forever.
Soon, Qin Yi arrived at the center of the 'Dragon Nest' factory. Yang Hongyan and Zhang Jian were already waiting for Qin Yi's arrival when they learned about it.
"Are you still used to life here?"
Qin Yi looked at Yang Hongyan and Zhang Jian. Since the two became the directors of the 'Dragon Nest' factory, they spent most of their time in space. As a boss, Qin Yi naturally has to care about the lives of his employees.
After all, we will have to extract the labor surplus value of these employees in the future.
"It's okay. Apart from running to the earth every three days, there's nothing I'm not used to."
Yang Hongyan thought for a while and said.
"Running to the earth is also for your health. If you stay in space for a long time, the calcium in the bones in the human body will lose due to the lack of gravity. If you want to avoid paralysis, you must continue to exercise every day."
Qin Yi said in a serious tone, there are more and more people working in the space age, ranging from anti-gravity spacecraft pilots, space engineers, space astronauts, space workers, interstellar workers, interstellar waiters, etc., all kinds of
New careers related to space are constantly emerging.
One characteristic of these professions is that they work in space, on the moon, and the working hours of these professions are very short.
At least half of a month must be spent back on Earth to rest. If you are working in space, it is basically a day of work and two days of rest. You cannot work in space for more than 10 consecutive days.
.
All of this has strict regulations. The reason is for the sake of physical health. If you want to live and work in space for a long time, you must exercise every day and move all the bones in the body.
But no matter how much you exercise, you will never achieve the effect of gravity. The invisible gravity on the earth is really important to the creatures that live in it for a long time. It is exercising the bones of the human body every moment, and the whole body is exercising.
In terms of orientation, this is far from comparable to physical exercise in space.
"Don't worry, boss."
"I'm still thinking about going to see and walk among the stars and the sea in the future."
Feeling Qin Yi's concern, Yang Hongyan squeezed out a smile on his face, which was really serious.
"It's good to know, you do too."
Qin Yi smiled and nodded, and then warned Zhang Jian.
"I've never seen a boss like you. Other bosses are eager to treat their employees like cattle and horses, but you are afraid that we will die from exhaustion."
Zhang Jian couldn't help but shake his head, he really had nothing to say to his boss.
"I am taking a long-term view to catch the big fish, and I want to maximize your value~"
Qin Yi curled his lips and looked towards the huge shipyard outside.
The second phase of the 'Dragon's Nest' space factory project has been completed, and the overall effect of the entire space factory has been revealed. When you are in it, you cannot see the whole picture, only a part of it.
The completed dock of the second phase of the project is different from the dock of the first phase of the project. The first phase of the project is mainly used to build the second generation anti-gravity engine. Although the dock is large, it is actually just a very large room. If it is closed, the scientists
and engineers can work inside without wearing spacesuits.
The manufacturing of engines is very delicate, with many large and small components. Scientists and engineers need a good working environment.
The shipyard completed in the second phase of the project is mainly used to manufacture spacecraft keels and overall construction. Because it is used to manufacture large spacecrafts, which are very large, naturally they cannot be carried out indoors and can only be placed in space.
Therefore, the second phase of the shipyard is very long, more than 20 kilometers long, with countless long robotic arms on it. Scientists and engineers mainly rely on these robotic arms to complete the construction of the spacecraft.
"All preparations have been completed and construction of the Qinglong can begin at any time."
Yang Hongyan looked at Qin Yi, and of course he knew Qin Yi's purpose of coming to the space factory this time.
"I heard that you dismantled the engine and reassembled it?"
Qin Yi nodded, then seemed to remember something and asked.
"Well, we feel that after spending hundreds of billions, we cannot only use about 20% of our strength. That would be a waste of resources. We can also get familiar with the engine."
Yang Hongyan nodded and said.
The power of the second-generation anti-gravity engine is too powerful, but because it is not made of integral castings, according to calculations and tests, once installed on a spacecraft, it can only exert about 20% of its strength. Once the power is too large,
, the engine and the spacecraft will be torn apart by the powerful force.
Yang Hongyan, Zhang Jian and others were unwilling to accept this point, so during the construction of the second phase of the project, while designing the 'Qinglong' spacecraft, they also dismantled and reinstalled the engine, reinstalled and dismantled, and continued
I am familiar with every point of the second-generation anti-gravity engine, and then try every means to see if I can improve its stability so that it can exert greater strength.
"Is there anything gained?"
Qin Yi smiled and nodded.
"The gain is that we still need to build a smelting factory in space as soon as possible. The power of the second-generation anti-gravity engine is really too great."
Zhang Jian said helplessly. He didn't believe it at first, but after dismantling it a few more times and conducting more experiments and tests, he could only believe the facts.
"Let's go and take a look at the design of the Qinglong."
Qin Yi smiled, then turned around and floated inside.
Soon, Qin Yi put on a virtual helmet and connected to the internal network of the 'Dragon's Nest' space factory. As the boss, Qin Yi had the highest authority and could access all information.
In Qin Yi's mind, a huge spaceship appeared. This spaceship looked like an oblong shape as a whole. At this point, it can still be seen that its technology still relies on anti-gravity technology.
It is 1.2 kilometers long, 0.5 kilometers wide at its widest point, and 0.3 kilometers high. It is very huge, like a giant.
"The design is pretty good, full of a sense of technology, a bit like a science fiction movie."
Through virtual technology, in the virtual world, Qin Yi, Yang Hongyan, and Zhang Jian all turned into villains, looking up at the huge spaceship designed in the virtual world.
"If we add some weapons to it, it will almost become a space battleship."
Qin Yi touched his chin and said.
Spaceships and space battleships are essentially the same, but they differ in function and whether they have supporting weapon combat systems. Of course, space battleships are used for combat, so there must be more considerations and considerations in the design.
Strict requirements.
"It seems that it is necessary to start researching space age weapons. If you want to colonize the stars in the future, you will not be able to do it without cannons."
Qin Yi thought to himself, already imagining the scene after adding weapons to the spaceship.
"Boss, this Qinglong spacecraft has a design mass of 1.2 million tons, an estimated maximum power of 0.2 standard power, is equipped with the latest second-generation anti-gravity engine, and uses the latest atomic matrix battery for energy..."
In the virtual world, Yang Hongyan began to surround this huge spaceship and began to introduce it to Qin Yi.
Because it is made of all steel, it has a large mass. However, in the sky and in microgravity, the larger mass does not have much impact.
The standard power Yang Hongyan refers to is based on theoretical calculations. If the second-generation anti-gravity engine operates at full power, it can push the heaviest object mass in space.
Because the second-generation anti-gravity engine technology uses the huge gravity of stars, although it has just begun to be manufactured and the technology is still very rough, according to computer calculations, the first second-generation anti-gravity engine can push a maximum mass of 1 billion tons.
Celestial bodies.
Because there was no standard in the past, scientists also set this number as the standard power. That is, if the engine can push 1 billion tons of objects in space, then it has a standard power.
According to the design, the 'Qinglong' spacecraft has 0.2 standard power, which means that it can push a maximum of 200 million tons of objects.
ps: There is no influence of gravity in space, and a small force can push an object of large mass.
