The Technology Tree of Xueba

Zhou Yu carefully observed the mass projector model brought by Li Qihua.

The model is small, but it is scaled up.

It is a huge magnetic levitation acceleration pipeline with a length of 3000 meters and a height of 500 meters. The acceleration pipe of the equipment is inclined at an angle of 25 degrees to the ground.

Every time the acceleration pipeline rises 20 meters, it will have a pier to support it, and the last pier is 500 meters high.

While Zhou Yu was observing the mass projector, Li Qihua briefly introduced the situation of the mass projector.

Mr. Zhou, the construction of the mass projector pipeline is not difficult. We have the technology accumulated in the super freight high-speed rail, and the magnetic levitation acceleration method can meet our requirements.

Some nifty mechanics for the Hyperfreight Railcar, which can also be ported over to the Mass Projector's cargo crate.

The overall construction plan of the mass projector is not difficult, but the main difficulty is the construction of the pipeline piers supporting the mass projector.

Our Xinghuo Technology has strong engineering capabilities, and I believe they can complete the construction of the mass projector.

Zhou Yu nodded and said: The mass projector is indeed very important. If it is really built, it will greatly reduce the cost of space launch and truly enter the era of spaceflight for all.

After the appearance of the mass projector, it will change the pattern of the aerospace industry.

The mass catapult does not need a launch window, nor does it require complicated preparations in the early stage, as long as the mass catapult has electricity.

At night, the mass catapult can let the moon's gravity pull the cargo box, accelerate the acceleration cargo box to a speed of 7900 meters per second, and break away from the shackles of the earth's gravity.

At present, the cost per kilogram of space launch is about 80,000 yuan. Only by reducing the cost of space launch to 6,000 yuan per kilogram can civil aerospace develop on a large scale.

The mass catapult can be launched at a high frequency, and once built, it will benefit for life. The cost of space launch is only 120 yuan per kilogram.

The emergence of the mass projector directly ushered in the dawn of the civil aerospace field.

These are all the advantages of the mass projector, and it has almost no disadvantages, except for the disadvantage of power consumption.

Zhou Yu didn't feel too much joy. He participated in the research of gravitational technology all the way, knowing that the theory of gravitational technology has appeared now, but the whole technology is not mature at all.

The mass catapult is still not a mature device. It launched ten times of cargo, and three times the cargo was successfully transported to space, that is, the mass catapult was very lucky.

The project of the mass projector can be established. After you solve the theory, the equipment will be handed over to Xinghuo Precision Manufacturing Company for improvement.

It also needs several improvements to increase the success rate of this device.

It is impossible to build a mass accelerator now, otherwise the launch of satellites will often fail, and our company will go bankrupt directly. Zhou Yu made his suggestion.

Li Qihua was stunned for a moment, and said: Mr. Zhou, we can now guarantee a 30% chance of launching items from the mass projector.

Now it is necessary to establish a mass catapult to compare with the theory in actual use and find out the problem of the equipment.

The launch cost of a mass catapult is very low, and it will not be able to compete with aerospace rockets in the high-end market in a short period of time, but it can completely open up new aerospace markets.

After Zhou Yu listened to Li Qihua's suggestion, he knew that he was in a dead end just now.

Now he realizes that a mass catapult is of a completely different nature than a space rocket.

The cost of a single launch of the mass projector is too low, and it can be launched continuously without interruption like a high-speed train.

The unit price that leads to the launch cost is extremely low, and the mass projector can launch something that was impossible before.

The success rate of mass projectors is very low, and it is unnecessary to launch satellites with a unit price of hundreds of millions of yuan. Insurance companies with deep pockets cannot afford a failure rate of more than 70%.

The mass catapult can completely launch some low-cost materials, even if the launch fails, it will not make people feel distressed.

For example, delivering logistics supplies to the space station, launching components of the space station, building space laboratories, and building space factories.

The launch cost of 80,000 yuan per kilogram of a space rocket is too high, and every bit of quality must be carefully calculated.

The mass projector is completely unnecessary, and it can even launch cheap materials such as steel into space.

Mass projectors can even send steel into space. This is the real way to lower the threshold of spaceflight and allow all people to participate.

Zhou Yu weighed the pros and cons, agreed to Li Qihua's suggestion, and said: The mass catapult should indeed be built, and the equipment should be tested through formal operation, and the feasibility of the gravitational traction technology should also be verified.

Through the gravitational traction technology, verify the performance of the gravitational theory in the macroscopic field.

The gravity laboratory continues to improve the gravitational traction technology, and the production and construction of the mass projector is handed over to Xinghuo Precision Manufacturing Company.

Zhou Yu encouraged the researchers in the gravity laboratory again. He walked around the research center to check other scientific research projects.

Knowing the situation of the main projects of the scientific research center, Zhou Yu went straight back to Longshou Building.

He now has two things to accomplish. One thing is to tell Yuan Keqing to start producing mass projector-related accessories and start building mass projectors.

Another thing is the establishment of Xinghuo Aerospace Company, Xinghuo Technology is preparing to enter the aerospace field.

Now that company executives have settled into their roles, aerospace is a completely new business.

Zhou Yu is not going to promote the general manager of Xinghuo Aerospace from the middle management of the company.

Xinghuo Aerospace Company is a highly professional company, and it is necessary to let professional talents in the aerospace field take the helm of this company.

Artificial intelligence Xianghua will participate in all affairs of Spark Technology, and the Finance Department of Spark Technology will send professional financial personnel to the subsidiary.

Employees and middle managers of the new company are also loyal to Xinghuo Technology.

Zhou Yu is not afraid that the professional managers he recruits will harm the public and private interests, or create his own small circle.

Only a company with a poor system will be unable to control the professional managers it recruits.

Zhou Yu sent the requirements of professional managers that Xinghuo Aerospace Company needs to recruit to Jiang Weiwei, the manager of the human resources department, and asked her to find qualified professional managers.

At the same time, he also issued a task to Yuan Keqing to let Xinghuo Precision Company manufacture a mass projector as soon as possible.

Get them in touch with the Gravity Lab scientists to find out where the Mass Projector was built.

Yuan Keqing received the task from Zhou Yu, and they acted immediately. Jia Yun, the chief engineer of Xinghuo Precision Manufacturing Company, was in charge of the production of the mass projector.

Yuan Keqing came to the scientific research center to discuss the details of the mass projector with Li Qihua.

After inspecting multiple construction sites, Yuan Keqing finally chose the hinterland of the ALS desert as the construction site for the mass projector.

The ALS desert is located in NMG. It is a typical desert with a large area and few people. The outskirts of the desert are grasslands, and there are no dense settlements around them.

The launch failure probability of the mass catapult is more than 70%. Once the launch fails, the cargo box weighing 100 tons will fall from a height of 500 meters.

If there are residents nearby, they will die if they touch them.

The choice of the ALS desert is not only because the land is sparsely populated, but also the soft quicksand of the desert will give a certain cushion to the cargo box.

The design and structure of the cargo box is very delicate, as long as there are not fragile items inside, there is a high probability that it will be intact.
