Why is this project still named the Dyson Sphere Project? The reason is that Chris is too lazy to think of another name.
Anyway, the Dyson Sphere and the Dyson Cloud sound quite high-end, so an engineer named Dyson who worked in the Aerospace System of the Ilanthil Empire was promoted by His Majesty the Emperor one day, and the Dyson Sphere Project was named accordingly.
.
The Dyson Cloud is actually a low-orbit nebula composed of countless energy umbrellas. The dense energy umbrellas will reflect the sun's rays, collect light energy, and transmit this energy back to Alan Siris.
On the surface of Airan Siris, in the equatorial direction, a giant receiver with a diameter of more than one hundred meters, like a radar antenna, has been built.
When the first phase of the project is completed, the sun's energy can be directly used to directly provide powerful energy to the earth's surface.
With this energy, the machines can work more smoothly - in the short term, such work seems meaningless, because the Empire of Elanshir is actually not short of electricity.
The fusion reactor that had just been built provided a large amount of electrical energy to the Elanshir Empire. If you look at the entire universe, the raw materials for the fusion reactor are not actually scarce supplies.
But this Dyson sphere technology itself is not reserved for the present. The purpose of the entire plan is to directly provide energy to more distant planets!
With the expansion and development of the Elanshir Empire, countless planets will be developed and accumulated to a certain extent, all mineral raw materials will begin to become scarce.
At that time, it becomes a very stupid choice to waste time and energy to transport raw materials to replenish each other between the stars.
Using long-distance energy transmission technology to connect several or even dozens of Dyson spheres and Dyson clouds to form a super huge interstellar power grid can fundamentally solve the problem.
This is also one of the reasons why the Eilandsil Empire spent so much time building the Dyson Cloud.
After adjusting the nuclear fusion reactor, the astronaut who returned to the central control module looked at the empty milk glass, stretched out and sat down in his seat.
He twisted his neck and then said to his colleague: "I checked the reactor and everything was normal there, so I continued to check the energy conversion equipment. Guess what? It was because the output equipment was overloaded and the system failed.
Automatically reset to zero...I reset the output parameters, and now the operation is back to normal."
"This spacecraft has a dead weight of hundreds of thousands of tons! It has thirty main thrusters, thirty auxiliary thrusters, and ten attitude correction engines..." The colleague, the captain of the spacecraft, said: "It's worth it.
711 billion imperial gold coins...so, you'd better not make a mistake."
"I understand the truth..." the astronaut replied: "The fault of the equipment is not a problem of the setting, but a problem of the design... The attitude correction engine we are using now is not specially designed for us."
"It is the attitude correction engine on the Violent Level 2 space cruiser!" He said with some dissatisfaction: "The design power was originally used for cruisers with smaller tonnage, but in order to save money, it was directly used on this spacecraft."
As he spoke, he typed on the keyboard in front of him and found the structural circuit diagram of the spacecraft engine: "Did you see it? There were some problems with our route before, and we urgently started the attitude correction engine... The engine overloaded the output and exceeded the control software's limit.
Data control threshold..."
"I know it's not your problem." The captain smiled: "So I just remind you, I don't mean to criticize you."
"Okay, so I'm just telling you about my work content. I don't mean to explain." The astronaut was stunned for a moment, and then replied.
After that, the two of them were silent until the astronaut named Joe walked into the central control cabin.
Joe walked to his work station, stretched his arms, and then said to the captain: "Boss, your running time is about to come."
"Have you investigated the problem of the unmanned spacecraft clearly?" The captain looked at Qiao and asked, "What exactly is the problem?"
He and these astronauts are not only the astronauts who control the spacecraft, but also the crew members of the science and technology research team of the Imperial Aeronautics and Space Administration of Ireland. Here they not only have to control the spacecraft to deploy energy umbrellas, but also perform a series of tasks at the same time.
Scientific and technological research work.
"I checked the work log on the memory." Joe immediately replied: "Isn't there something wrong with the previous flight trajectory of our spacecraft? As a result, the transport spacecraft had to correct its flight trajectory before it could safely dock with us."
"Shouldn't the computer correct its trajectory on its own?" the captain asked with some confusion.
"Yes, but subsequent docking requires manual correction... During the correction process, the puppet robot was unable to face the complex correction flight, so the computer logic collapsed and shut down." Qiao smiled and pointed to his own
Brain: "It's a bit difficult for them to be as smart as us."
"Tell me, can you see these energy umbrellas on the ground?" the astronaut in charge of the fusion reactor asked.
Because of its proximity to the sun, the central control cabin where they were located could not see the vast starry sky outside.
It was as if they were inside a submarine, unable to see everything outside and could only control the external conditions of the spacecraft through sensors.
Of course, if they really want to see the sun, there is a special viewing window, but after living in the ring and outer space for more than five years, they are no longer so addicted to stargazing.
"It can definitely be seen on the star ring, and it is very clear." The captain said: "As for the ground, I don't know..."
After sighing, he suddenly felt a little sentimental: "When I first heard that people could live in space, I was filled with curiosity to see it."
His voice was full of nostalgia: "It has been five years since I set foot on the land of Alan Siris... Now, I can no longer remember what it was like to stand at the door of the house in my hometown and look up at the stars.
It looks like..."
"Someone will come to replace you in three months. Let's apply for an annual leave then and go back to Ailansiris to have a look." Qiao suddenly said.
"Okay!" The other two nodded, this time extremely firmly.
Just as they nodded, in the Holy City, a cannonball landed in front of the broken and collapsed city wall. Countless shrapnel was embedded in the stones of the city wall. The vibration caused some broken bricks to roll down from the city head, making a crackling sound.
sound.
At this moment, the ground troops of the Airanhir Empire could clearly see the gate of the Holy City that existed in name only.
