Hand rubbing nuclear fusion live in the wilderness

Chapter 361 Coming to Mount Tai Again
Compared with ordinary lightning, the red and green two-color lightning that hit the space shuttle zero has too many strange things.

Han Yuan went through all the relevant logs, including the videos before and after being hacked. He watched them all, but he didn't find anything obviously abnormal.

Whether it is from the log, from the video, or from other aspects, the space shuttle encountered a thunder point this time, as if it were a purely natural accident.

But Han Yuan always had a strange feeling in his heart.

This is intuition.

It's like someone is staring at you from behind, even if you don't have eyes in the back of your head, you can detect it.

The colored thunder and lightning this time has a kind of 'artificial' feeling, but no evidence or trace can be found.

With this feeling, Han Yuan went through the diary and video records again, but still couldn't find any evidence that could confirm his thoughts, so he could only frown and give up temporarily.

This bolt of lightning was indeed unusual, and if he traced it down, he might find something unexpected, but he didn't have much time to waste on it.

And more importantly, he has no technology to track down.

satellite?radar?telescope?
Don't make a fuss, this time the space shuttle Zero sent the first batch of satellites up. Even if it has already been launched, it only has the communication function, and the detection capability has not yet been launched.

The photoelectric sensor and signal radar responsible for the detection function have only been tested, and the real-time function needs to be switched to the Taishan base for this batch of satellite signal channels.

The base here does not yet have such a powerful computer to be responsible for it, and there is not enough storage equipment to store the reconnaissance information fed back by the nine satellites in real time.

In addition, the lightning strike event has already occurred. A lightning strike hit the space shuttle. Except for the high concentration of air ions decomposed due to the ultra-high voltage current near the lightning trail, and the loss of the space shuttle itself, there are no other traces.

Even if the air will be electrolyzed into air ions by ultra-high voltage lightning leaving traces, it is estimated that it will almost dissipate.

Don't forget that this is the tail wind left by the typhoon when it passes through the border, and it carries the wind force itself. Even if there are tiny water droplets to absorb air ions, after a long time, when the wind blows, all ions will be dissipated. After all, it is not fixed. in the air.

"Wait, ions? Air ions?"

Frowning, Han Yuan seemed to think of something, muttered a few words, and recalled the conditions for the formation of lightning.

Thunder and lightning are usually generated by cumulonimbus or thunderstorm clouds. The bottom layer is negative electricity, the top layer is positive electricity, and the ground will also generate positive electricity, which moves with the cloud like a shadow.

In this way, the positive and negative charges attract each other, and finally the positive and negative charges are finally connected by overcoming the barrier of the air, so that a huge current moves along a conductive airway, and then produces a bright and dazzling flash.

Sometimes the positive charge on the ground will also flow upstream, from the ground to the clouds, forming geogenerated electricity.

But this is relatively rare.

But for lightning to form, there are two main conditions.

The first is that the amount of charge carried by the cloud must be very large, and the second is that the air must be very humid, which will cause the air to carry a large number of tiny water droplets.

This is because air is an excellent insulator and a poor conductor of electricity, so the charge carried by the cloud must be large enough to break through the air to produce lightning.

But what if a conductive channel or an air ion channel is artificially provided?
Ordinary air is not conductive, but air ions are conductive, and the conductivity is very good, because it has its own positive and negative charges.

If an air ion channel is artificially provided, can the huge amount of electric charge carried by the cloud layer flow out through the ion channel?
Won has not forgotten that electric propulsion-the operating basis of the non-propellant engine and the tail flame ejected are ionized air ions.

"Emotion is electric propulsion - the pot of the engine without propellant?"

Once confirmed by Lenovo, Han Yuan was a little dumbfounded.

According to this idea, when the space shuttle passes through the clouds, the electric propulsion engine at the bottom will leave behind a large amount of air ions.

These air ions do not escape too quickly in humid air, and some are absorbed by tiny water droplets in the air.

In this way, the lightning anomaly that struck the space shuttle can be completely explained.

Why is the temperature carried by this lightning bolt much lower than normal lightning.

Why does this lightning strike the space shuttle straight without any forks.

Why does this lightning appear red and green in a state of low temperature and low energy.

why.
The emotion is caused by the massive air ions generated by the ionization of the electric propulsion engine during operation.

The cirrus clouds carried by the tail wind after the typhoon passes, under normal circumstances, it is true that lightning will not form.

But it doesn't mean that these cirrus clouds don't carry charges themselves, but the number is much less than that of thunderstorm cumulonimbus clouds.

Normally, the charges and electric fields carried by these cirrus clouds are not large enough to penetrate the air to form lightning, but the space shuttle appeared.

It passed through the clouds, and the three engines at the bottom ejected a large amount of air ions when they were running, forming an ion channel more than ten meters wide, or even tens of meters wide, on the landing trajectory.

Although the charges carried by the clouds are not strong enough to penetrate the air, it does not mean that these charges will not move, especially if the clouds themselves are affected by the typhoon's tail wind.

When these charges were moving rapidly, they encountered the ion channel formed by the space shuttle, and then gathered, and finally formed a red and green low-temperature lightning, and then hit the space shuttle along the ion channel.

The temperature of lightning is low because the charge itself is much lower than that of normal thunderclouds.

The red and green colors are also due to the ionized air ions. After all, even without the tail flame of the electric propulsion engine, normal lightning can also have colors.

Thinking of this, Han Yuan instantly understood.

Fortunately, he was still wondering if there was some hidden civilization on this planet that was preventing him from exploring the global exploration of space or something.

The feeling is that he thinks too much.

After trying to understand what was going on, Han Yuan also relaxed.

But then another problem arose.

It is impossible for him to give up the black-tech general propulsion of electric propulsion-no propellant engine.

Unless he can now figure out the primary magnetic field anti-gravity technology in his mind, and produce a supporting small nuclear fusion device to provide energy.

Otherwise, it is impossible for him to give up this engine technology.

He can replace the electromagnetic propulsion system, but electric propulsion-no working fluid engine is impossible.

If the electric propulsion engine is not replaced, then the ensuing problems are also obvious.

For the launch of the space shuttle, he can choose the time when the sun rises during the day, but the landing is not his choice, but the preset program has already been done and automatically adjusted.

Just like sending the satellite into low-earth orbit and returning to encounter a typhoon this time, it is normal for subsequent launches to encounter cloudy and rainy days.

Especially in the follow-up, he will move the launch site to Huaguo Taishan.

In this way, when the launch and landing encounter cloudy days, the possibility of rainy days will be greater.

However, the large amount of air ions that the space shuttle ejects during landing will be a big problem.

These air ions evolve into an ion channel in the air, which may trigger the massive electric charge carried by the cloud layer at any time, and then evolve into lightning, hitting the space shuttle along the ion channel.

This will be a huge problem for the safety of the space shuttle landing.

Even if the resulting lightning is far inferior to ordinary lightning in terms of energy, temperature and voltage, it will still cause damage to the space shuttle.

The shredded tortoise protective material on the top of the space shuttle is right in front of you and hasn't been replaced, let alone the sensitive electronic components that have completely burned out.

I thought that the flag that could test the space shuttle when it landed on a rainy day really came true.

The shuttle returned normally, problems arose, and he was busy again.

"ε=(ο｀*))) Alas."

Han Won sighed and turned to leave the control room.

We have to find a way to eliminate the influence of the ion channel, or reduce the damage of lightning to the space shuttle.

If every take-off and landing had to be tossed like this, he wouldn't be able to bear it.

Regarding the high probability of being struck by lightning when the space shuttle passes through the clouds, Han Yuan quickly thought of a solution.

He has no way to eliminate the air ion channel formed by the electric propulsion-no propellant engine, but there is a way to reduce the impact of lightning on the space shuttle.

The method is very simple, just refer to the way high-rise buildings and ordinary civil aviation airliners deal with lightning.

The surface protection material of the space shuttle he designed and manufactured is not a whole, but spliced ​​piece by piece like a tortoise shell, and the gaps in the middle are fixed with alloy materials and rivets.

It only needs a little modification to make it a lightning rod, which is the so-called conduction.

If lightning strikes the space shuttle, it is sufficient to guide it out by the modified metal material, so that the protective material covering the surface and the space shuttle body will not be affected.

But there is one more troublesome point in doing so.

That is, there is no way to eliminate the strong magnetic field formed after the lightning strikes the space shuttle.

This cannot be eliminated by the lightning rod, and even the influence of the magnetic field will be strengthened to a certain extent by changing the lightning rod all over the space shuttle.

Therefore, Won has to find a way to protect sensitive electronic components from the influence of the magnetic field, or to weaken the influence of the magnetic field.

At least to maintain sensitive electronic components will not be burned due to the magnetic field.

Even if it temporarily stops working due to the magnetic field, it is fine.

After all, the strong magnetic field formed by lightning exists for a very short time, and it will not exceed five seconds if it hits the sky.

Five seconds would be fatal if the core components were to shut down, but not very long for the electronic components deployed outside.

Sensitive components deployed under protective materials, or even semi-exposed outside, are not critical to the space shuttle as a whole. Even if it stops for five seconds, it will not have much impact. At most, it is some unimportant information. The collection will be affected to some extent.

As for how to protect these sensitive components, this is also not a difficult task for the Korean Won, but it is more time-consuming.

The way Won thinks is to add a micro-isolator in front of the sensitive component that will not affect the normal operation of the component.

This kind of isolator can check various information such as magnetic field, current, voltage, etc. It is something in the "knowledge information of carbon-based integrated circuit board preparation". It was originally used on chips, but he took it out separately.

In addition to the isolator, an environmental protection treatment can also be done around the sensitive components, or some sensitive components that can be moved can be moved to the inside of the space shuttle.

The strong magnetic field formed by lightning will only cover the surface of the space shuttle, and will not affect the components inside. Moving the location is also a solution to the problem, but it cannot be completely solved.

After all, there are some sensitive components that need to be deployed on the surface or under the protective material.

It took two and a half days for Won to complete the overall inspection of the space shuttle and the replacement of damaged materials.

The main reason is that the detailed inspection took a lot of time. When encountering lightning strikes for the first time, besides the damage visible to the naked eye, Won was worried that there were other damages that could not be seen by the naked eye.

These require some special instruments to check, and even some places need to be disassembled first, and then installed after testing and confirming that there is no problem.

Once coming and going, it will naturally delay time.

As for the replacement of damaged materials and protection against lightning strikes, it didn't take long.

The whole parts of Space Shuttle Zero were built by him little by little, so they can all be exchanged through technology points, and he only needs to deploy them.

The reprocessed space shuttle stood in the test site. Because it carried a large number of protruding lightning rods, the processed space shuttle was like a snapping turtle, with a large number of protrusions on the surface, which looked very ugly. Let the live broadcast The audience in the room complained endlessly.

Won ignored the complaints, ugly is ugly, practical is fine.

These ugly protrusions have been tested, simulating high-voltage current on the surface of the space shuttle, they can guide and shunt high-voltage electricity well, and finally discharge it from the wing position.

Although the simulated high-voltage electricity cannot reach the level of lightning, it also proves that it can effectively protect the underlying protective materials from being broken down by high-voltage electricity.

After completing the trimming of the space shuttle, Won adjusted the preset commands and related procedures of the space shuttle, and then sent it back into space at ten o'clock the next morning.

The adjustment this time is mainly the adjustment of the running time and landing location.

This time, the space shuttle Zero will stay in low-Earth orbit for three days and then land at the Mount Tai base.

He will rush to Mount Tai within three days, and build a long-wave signal transmission tower on the top of Mount Tai, and complete the commissioning, and send a fixed-frequency signal wave to the surroundings to guide the landing of the space shuttle.

This is also a big challenge for the Korean won.

Under the condition that the Leluo triangle aircraft and the space shuttle need to be driven to Huaguo simultaneously, he has no other options.
