The outer space of the Earth is very lively and prosperous, with spaceships coming and going, huge space stations, solar power stations, space villages, etc., as well as countless satellites of various kinds.
Nowadays, the Earth's outer space has reached a point where all aircraft must be managed uniformly, because once something goes wrong, a domino effect may occur, destroying all the space buildings in the entire Earth's outer space.
After all, in space, all objects fly very fast, whether they are satellites, spaceships, or space stations that remain relatively stationary with the earth, space cities, etc., the speed of all these buildings is at least a few kilometers per second.
If they collide with each other at terrible speeds, the consequences will be absolutely devastating. This is also the most basic principle of space weapons and space-based weapons.
According to Einstein's mass-energy formula, high-speed flying objects carry greater energy. If they attack the ground from space, even if they drop a tungsten rod, it will be enough to destroy the world.
Of course, the premise is that this tungsten rod does not burn up due to friction with the earth's atmosphere.
In the busy space, spacecrafts are constantly rising and falling from the earth. There are also spaceships flying from the earth to the moon, and there are also spaceships loaded with lunar minerals flying back from the moon.
In the direction of the moon, a huge spaceship is constantly flying towards the earth in the void.
Its figure was so huge that it immediately attracted the attention of countless people. After receiving the news, almost all the staff in space looked at this huge spacecraft.
It is 1.2 kilometers long, 300 meters high, and 500 meters wide at its widest point. The overall look is like a giant fish soaring in the ocean.
"God, the Chinese people are so crazy, they actually built such a huge spaceship~"
Some foreigners couldn't help but draw crosses on their chests, lamenting the madness of the Chinese people.
"This is the 'Qinglong' spacecraft built by Galaxy Technology Group. It would be great if we could also have a spacecraft like this."
Some people can't help but get red-eyed. People who work in space basically know more or less about space, spaceships, etc.
It is clear that the bigger the spaceship is, the more powerful it is, just like the ships sailing on the earth's oceans. There are only a handful of countries in the world that can build aircraft carriers. This is a reflection of a country's comprehensive strength.
Now let alone building such a huge spaceship, even small anti-gravity spacecraft all need to be imported from China.
This has made countless foreigners deeply feel the technological gap between China and China, and feel that they are like tiny ants who can only look up in front of such a huge spaceship.
The 'Qinglong' spacecraft slowly flew into the outer space of the Earth, then chose a trajectory and began to fly around the Earth. It was in the trial stage, preparing to replenish supplies on the Earth's side, and then start its actual trial voyage in the solar system.
Ground, Huangping Town Xinghe Aerospace Industrial Base.
Above the huge airport, spaceships are slowly closing their hatches. These spaceships are filled with a variety of supplies, including food, water, compressed air, and various other things.
Cheap resource exploration satellites, communication satellites, etc.
In the past, satellites were a high-end thing. The cost of manufacturing and launching a satellite was not cheap. Generally, only national-level organizations and institutions could handle it.
But things are completely different now. There is even a private technology company in China that specializes in manufacturing satellites at low prices and can also help you launch them into space.
So satellites are really a mess now.
This time, Galaxy Technology Group has manufactured thousands of satellites, all of which are packed and ready to be transported to the 'Qinglong' spacecraft.
Anti-gravity spaceships continued to take off from the ground, quickly disappeared into the sky, and entered space within a few minutes.
Soon, these anti-gravity spacecrafts continuously adjusted their orbits in space, shifted into the orbit of the 'Qinglong' spacecraft, and slowly approached the 'Qinglong' spacecraft.
Compared with the huge "Qinglong" spacecraft, the first-generation anti-gravity spacecraft appears very small. The huge hatch on the "Qinglong" spacecraft slowly opened, and at the same time, thick and powerful mechanical arms stretched out.
.
When the first-generation anti-gravity spacecraft approached, these mechanical arms grabbed it directly and then fixed it firmly, as if they wanted to grab it into their huge belly.
The hatch of the anti-gravity spacecraft also slowly opened, and an astronaut wearing a space suit came to the middle between the two with the help of a mechanical arm.
Then he began to use a virtual machine to control the mechanical arm with his mind to unload the cargo from the first-generation anti-gravity spacecraft and transport it into the 'Qinglong' spacecraft.
Thanks to the fusion of mechanical technology and ideological technology, the robotic arms are very flexible and have been widely used. Each robotic arm is extremely flexible and can transfer all the goods in just ten minutes.
Inside the huge 'Qinglong' spacecraft, there are also robotic arms in the huge warehouse. The robotic arms outside carry materials to the door, while the robotic arms inside sort and store the goods.
Soon, the door of the first-generation anti-gravity spaceship that completed cargo transportation slowly closed, and the mechanical arm of the 'Qinglong' also released, allowing it to slowly leave itself.
The first spaceship left, and soon, another spaceship slowly approached, one after another. These spaceships were like hard-working little bees, constantly collecting nectar to feed the huge spaceship "Qinglong".
The queen bee has a huge appetite.
Ground, Huangping Town, Galaxy Technology Group Astronaut Training Center.
"Our mission this time is to go to the asteroid belt to mine asteroids. Because our 'Qinglong' spacecraft has limited power and can only drag 200 million tons of objects at most. To be on the safe side, we can only choose the largest
The 150-million-ton asteroid will haul it back."
On the podium, Wu Renjie explained this mission to the ppt, and at the same time glanced around his teammates.
The entire action team has a total of 21 members, both men and women. They are going to complete an unprecedented feat in human history, which is to go to the asteroid belt to mine an asteroid and come back, opening a new chapter in the interstellar mining industry.
"Everyone, our trip this time is expected to take about three months, and it will be a very long interstellar journey."
"In the vast universe, we will be very lonely. There are only 21 of us around us. I can't guarantee that this mission is safe."
"Because the 'Qinglong' spacecraft did not actually conduct a trial voyage. It just flew from the moon to the earth. For it, it was just a piece of cake for Zhang Fei to eat beans. Our mission this time is its real mission."
Trial voyage."
"So I don't have any confidence in my heart whether there will be any problems."
"If someone is scared, they can quit now. The company will never face any difficulties because of this. Everything is voluntary."
Looking at his teammates in front of him, Wu Renjie smiled and said.
He is not an alarmist, nor does he mean to scare people. Although he has great confidence in the company's scientists and the 'Blue Dragon' spacecraft, it is better to say some things up front.
Of these 21 teammates, only 12 have real astronaut qualifications. These 12 are responsible for driving the spacecraft. They were all former Air Force pilots and they all have a very good fighting spirit.
But among the other 10 people, some are a team of chefs who are responsible for cooking for everyone on the spacecraft, and some are a team of astronomy scientists who are responsible for mass calculations and composition analysis of asteroids.
There is also a team of spacecraft engineers who have participated in the design and construction of the "Qinglong" spacecraft. They are very familiar with every structure and part of the spacecraft and are dedicated to repairing and maintaining the spacecraft.
Each of the 21 teammates can be said to be carefully selected, and they are all talents from the interstellar space age. Even the chef on the spaceship is not just a chef, he has also performed spaceship driving and simple spacecraft maintenance.
Training in this area can also replace certain positions on the spacecraft when necessary.
As for the 10 astronauts, they are even more versatile. They can not only pilot the spacecraft, but also perform repairs and overhauls on the spacecraft, which are also the most basic skills.
If you want to make a living in space, you still need to learn a lot. Even if you are a space chef, you need to undergo strict training, and you can only work with a space chef license.
"Captain, we wouldn't sit here if we were afraid~"
As soon as Wu Renjie finished speaking, someone immediately said something dissatisfied.
Wu Renjie looked over and saw that Long Zhankong, a top student graduating from Galaxy University of Science and Technology in cosmic astronomy, was a member of the cosmic astronomy science team this time.
"Yeah, isn't it just a trip to the asteroid to take it away? What are you afraid of?"
"Mining asteroids is a great feat that will be written into human history textbooks. This is a good opportunity to leave a mark in history. Who would miss it?"
"That's right, I won't quit anyway. I believe that our company's scientists will definitely have no problems."
Long Zhankong started, and other teammates also followed suit.
"Very good, it seems everyone is ready!"
Wu Renjie looked at everyone's expressions, nodded with satisfaction, and then said loudly: "Everyone stand up and let's go~"
