Chapter 580 Why Do I Feel that They Are Trying to Make a Circle? (Seeking a Monthly Ticket)

Chapter 580 Why do I feel that they are trying to make a circle? (seeking a monthly ticket)

The Xingkong-2 test was successful, and there was no problem in the inspection after recovery, and it can indeed be launched again.

The test space station has been manufactured, but it is still in the test, and the test requirements are very strict.

The star ring space station is divided into 48 equal parts, and each part is arranged with two inner and outer houses, and each house is an independent modular space.

For example, it is necessary to conduct pressure tests on the various modules (houses) of the space station to ensure that they can withstand the pressure and vibration in the space environment.

The temperature difference in space is very large, and it is necessary to test the performance of various parts of the space station under extreme temperatures to ensure that it can operate normally in the space environment.

It is necessary to test the performance and reliability of the emergency escape system of the space station to ensure that astronauts can evacuate safely in an emergency.

Others, such as power test, communication test, stability test, life support system test, fire extinguishing system test and so on.

The entire test process takes a lot of time and material resources, but it must be done because the space environment is extremely harsh, and if something goes wrong, the consequences will be disastrous.

Before launch, the space station needs to be thoroughly inspected and tested to ensure that each module (room) meets the design requirements and can withstand tests under various extreme conditions.

At the same time, it is also necessary to carry out detailed planning and preparation for each test project, formulate a complete test plan and process, and maximize the test efficiency and accuracy.

During the test, the data needs to be continuously recorded and analyzed, and possible problems can be found in time and repaired.

If unresolvable problems arise, the space station will need to be redesigned and remanufactured until all tests can be passed.

Only by passing a series of rigorous tests can the stability and safety of the Halo space station be ensured, thus providing a solid foundation for future space exploration.

After the Xingkong-2 launch was completed, Mu Yang focused on testing the space station.

The outside world knows that the Xinghai Group is building a space station, but the Xinghai Group has not released the data of the space station, that is to say, it has not announced the plan for the Xinghuan space station.

On April 10th,

The Xinghai Group announced the shape of the experimental space station, but did not announce the overall star ring space station, which caused complaints from netizens at home and abroad.

"This is the Xinghai Group's space station? Don't tease me, it's really ugly!"

"It's not ugly, but it's not beautiful either, as long as it's practical."

"With a little arc, I don't understand what the designer of Xinghai Group thinks, it's better to make a long square."

"Leaving aside the appearance, its size is very large, much larger than the current space station. I have a question, if the space is too large, is it too wasteful?"

"A group of laymen are worrying about it. The Xinghai Group has always been oriented by practicality. I believe they will definitely consider these issues."

"If it can achieve the ambitious goals of the Xinghai Group, it will become irrelevant whether it is beautiful or not."

Most netizens think that the appearance of Xinghai Group's space station is not good-looking, but it is undeniable that the size is large enough.

Some netizens believe that with regard to the appearance of the space station, the designer's ideas and aesthetic standards may vary from person to person, and different people will have different opinions.

An aerospace expert said: "The space station is not only an appearance, but more importantly, its function and performance.

Therefore, more attention should be paid to the practicality and technological content of the space station.

Regarding the size of the space station, the space station announced by Xinghai Group is indeed much larger than the existing space station, which also means that it can provide more space and facilities to support more scientific experiments and astronaut activities.

In addition, it is indeed inconvenient to walk in space, but in the space station, astronauts usually use various equipment and tools, such as trolleys, air hammers, slide rails, manipulators, etc. to move and operate.

Finally, we should see the Xinghai Group's efforts and achievements in building a space station, which is an important step in Huaguo's aerospace industry. "

Some netizens saw the expert's comment and replied: "That's right, foreigners are jealous, so they commented that Xinghai Group's space station is not good-looking."

When Mu Yang was free, he also read some reports and knew that many people questioned the appearance of the space station he designed.

He just smiled, which is equivalent to seeing a flaw in a piece of beautiful jade.

He still has a lot of problems to solve now, and he doesn't have much thought on the media.

Currently, he is trying to solve the gravity problem of the space station.

In the sealed cockpit of the spacecraft, people are in a floating state due to weightlessness. In order to prevent the astronauts from flying in the space station, special measures must be taken.

Engineers have installed some armrests on the inside and outside of the space shuttle or space station. Astronauts use their hands to hold on to the armrests to move their bodies back and forth, instead of using their feet.

If you are in space, far away from the space shuttle or space station, you cannot rely on the body's own movements to generate reaction force to achieve the purpose of walking, and you can only rely on jetpacks to propel your body.

But how fast and how far you go, you can't make a subjective judgment.

Therefore, in the vast expanse of space, except for the spacecraft moving at the same speed, there is no object as a reference object, and it is difficult to judge the speed and the distance.

At the same time, it is also difficult to judge the size of the objects seen, and will regard distant stars as small stones that are close at hand.

Xinghai Group researchers are working hard to solve these problems, while Mu Yang mainly solves the gravity problem of the space station.

He devised several schemes.

The first one, like the space station in China, is full of handrails, which is definitely needed;

The second type is intelligent electromagnetic control. Astronauts wear intelligently controlled electromagnetic shoes, which can absorb when they step on the floor. When the heel is lifted, the electromagnet reverses;

The third type is the auxiliary mobile tackle. His space station has a large space, so it is not difficult to realize it.

The fourth type is gravity generating equipment.

Mu Yang also wants to buy a gravity generating device, but the current level 7 technology can't meet what he wants, and it may require a reading system of level 8 to be suitable.

If it is developed by then and can be installed on the space station, it would be the best.

If there is really no way, it is also possible to recycle the space station section by section to the earth and rebuild it.

Therefore, only the first three methods can be used in combination at present.

As for rotating the star ring to generate gravity, Mu Yang has already rejected this plan structurally.

In the assembly workshop of the space station, Mu Yang and scientific researchers are operating the manipulator.

The manipulator developed by Xinghai Group is capable of intelligent operation. It can be taught once on the earth to record the program and key features. In space, due to gravity and clearance problems, it can fine-tune the operation according to the actual situation to complete the assembly of the space station.

The company is currently adding human interaction functions to industrial robots, and has achieved phased success, being the first to be applied to space station manipulators.

The researchers gave instructions to the manipulator through the console to let it pick up various parts for assembly. Many tests have been conducted in a simulated environment, proving that the manipulator can complete various assembly tasks in space.

On April 15th,

The commissioning of the space station was completed, and Muyang passed the acceptance inspection.

On the same day, the space station was moved into the Flying Dragon ground-effect aircraft, and moved to the rocket launch center on the same day, and the unloading was completed.

April 16,

Start placing the space station on the Xingkong-2 rocket.

Due to space issues, two launches are required to carry ten modules into space.

It is also more troublesome to hoist the space module to the Xingkong-2 rocket. A single module weighs 65 tons, and the rocket cannot be touched during the hoisting process.

It took half a day to finally move the space module into the rocket, and the inspection was completed on the same day, and the fairing was closed.

Next, the staff began pre-checking the rocket to ensure that the rocket can successfully enter space.

They inspected the rocket's engines, fuel, electrical systems, and other vital components to make sure everything was in good working order.

By April 20, the first pre-screening work was completed.

Xinghai Group announced: "At ten o'clock in the morning on May 1st, Xinghai Group plans to launch a test space station!"

Just a dozen or so words quickly caused waves.

Domestic and foreign media reports appeared one after another, and people began to speculate on what kind of functions this space station would have, and what impact it would have on the development of science and technology and the aerospace industry.

"Less than a month has passed since the Xingkong-2 test, and the launch of the space station is planned so soon. Congratulations to the Xinghai Group in advance, and I wish success!"

"expect!"

Domestic netizens are looking forward to and congratulating, and most foreign netizens are also looking forward to it, but some foreigners don't want Xinghai Group to launch successfully.

In the next few days, the staff of the Xinghai Group rocket base continued to make final preparations, checking every component to ensure that everything was in the best condition. They know that the key to the success of this mission lies in the perfect execution of each link, and any mistakes in details may lead to disastrous consequences.

April 25,

The Xingkong-2 rocket is mounted on a slide rail platform and pulled to the launch platform by a tractor.

On April 26, Xingkong-2 began to refuel.

On April 28, Xinghai Group had completed various preparatory work, including the inspection and debugging of the launch site, the installation and testing of the payload, and so on.

All the work is going on in an orderly manner, and every link has been carefully arranged and organized.

In the next two days, check again.

In the outside world, the world has already turned upside down, and there are more and more reports about Xinghai Group's space station.

There are a lot of negative news abroad, saying that Xinghai Group's launch of such an ugly space station is meaningless and will probably fail.

What do you say "face value is justice".

Time, soon to May 1st.

The local TV station and Y TV obtained the permission to broadcast the live broadcast. It happened to be the Labor Day holiday today. Many citizens went on vacation, but they also paid attention to the launch of Xinghai Group.

"Every scenic spot is full of people, and the highway is blocked. It's better to stay at home and watch the rocket launch."

Many citizens thought so, squatting at home, looking forward to the official launch of the rocket.

ten o'clock in the morning,

The Xingkong-2 rocket lifted off on time, carrying the experimental space station to the depths of the universe.

The eyes of the whole world are on this great moment.

10:12,

The rocket reached the predetermined orbit and began to launch into the space station.

A few minutes later, the space station was launched successfully, and Xingkong-2 returned to Earth.

At the same time, the manipulator on the empty station began to assemble the modules together.

"Excited, very excited!

Congratulations to the Xinghai Group, they successfully launched the first space station, which has become an important milestone in human history..." The TV host reported while standing near the rocket base with a very excited face.

After another half an hour, the manipulator of the space station had already assembled the main modules, and the host reported excitedly: "As the assembly of the space station is completed, it gradually shows a unique shape.

It is composed of five huge ring-shaped modules with a beautiful and futuristic appearance.

This space station is not only an experimental platform, but also a symbol of human exploration into the universe.

After the space station is put into use, Xinghai Group will conduct manned experiments, and scientists have conducted a series of important experiments.

They used the zero-gravity environment of the space station to conduct a large number of experiments in physics, chemistry, and biology. These data are of great significance for solving problems on the earth. At the same time, the space station also laid the foundation for human landing on the moon and deep space exploration. "

"Currently there are no humans on the space station, but it does not affect the Xinghai Group's remote control."

"I have to say that it has been exactly ten years since Mr. Mu Yang founded the Xinghai Group, but he already has the strength to launch a space station. His aerospace technology strength can be said to be one of the best in the world. The speed of Xinghai Group's development is too shocking!"

Domestic audiences were also very excited, telling each other and discussing the Xinghai Group's space station.

At the same time, listening to what the host said, it is really amazing to think back to the speed of development of the Xinghai Group over the years.

In ten years, the strength of aerospace has surpassed that of any other country!

In ten years, Xinghai Group has become a giant!

In ten years, the Xinghai Group has left the earth stage and plans to go to the interstellar!

Especially in recent years, the speed of Xinghai Group's development has made Western countries tremble and fear.

"Yes, only a few countries in the world have space stations, and a private company, Xinghai Group, has built and launched its own space station. This move will lead the development of global aerospace technology." A domestic netizen commented excitedly .

Another netizen also said: "The success of Xinghai Group fully proves the strength and innovation ability of Huaguo enterprises, and makes us proud of it!"

After the assembly of the space station was completed, Ye Fan accepted the TV interview. He greeted the audience with a smile, and then began to introduce Xinghai Group's space station plan.

"The launch of the space station was successful. Our company's space station plan has entered a substantive stage. According to the latest order of the chairman, we have started relevant work and are actively preparing for the second launch."

His words are clear and powerful, and he sounds very confident.

"At present, our space station plan includes the following aspects: First, build the core module of the space station to achieve long-term manned residence;

The second is to launch cargo spacecraft to ensure the daily life and scientific experiment needs of astronauts;

The third is to conduct aerospace scientific research and technological development, and contribute to the aerospace industry of Huaguo and the world. "

Ye Fan's words aroused warm applause from the audience.

He continued: "I believe that in the near future, everyone will see Xinghai Group astronauts in space. This will be another milestone in my country's aerospace development."

It didn't take long for media from various countries to report enthusiastically on Xinghai Group's successful launch of the space station.

To their surprise,

Five days later, on May 6th.

Xinghai Group launched the second group of modules again, namely 6-10 modules.

There were no waves, and it was successfully spliced ​​together with the first set of modules.

"Xinghai Group launching a rocket is really as simple as drinking water!"

"It's unbelievable. I thought I'd have to wait a month before launching. The efficiency of the Xinghai Group is astonishing."

"This is the speed of Hua Country!"

"Hua Country's infrastructure construction is fast, but looking at the Xinghai Group's rocket launch frequency, you will feel that the infrastructure construction speed is very normal."

The people of Waiguo discussed and praised Xinghai Group on various video platforms.

But,

Another six days passed, May 12th.

Xinghai Group launched the third group of modules again.

After the 1st-15th modules are assembled together, there is already 56.25 radians, and astronomy enthusiasts feel something is wrong.

Why is this space station arc-shaped?

The Xinghai Group launched the space station again, and the appearance of the space station caused shock and discussion around the world.

"Xinghai Group launches space stations so frequently, isn't it over?"

"Every module is almost exactly the same, why do I feel like they are trying to make a circle!"

"My God, is it possible that the Xinghai Group is going to build a circular space station?"

These speculations are not unreasonable, because there is indeed a space station called a ring space station in science fiction films.

The annular space station is assembled from several arc-shaped modules, shaped like a huge wheel or ring.

The advantage of this space station is that it can provide more room for movement and better gravity simulation.

Since the module is arc-shaped, the arc of the space station will be relatively large.

However, the circular space station also has some disadvantages, such as requiring higher technical difficulty and greater construction costs.

However, according to the Xinghai Group, it has not issued any official statement, but instead focuses on manufacturing and launching the space station.

This arc-shaped space station has also attracted the attention of the international aerospace community. It spread to other industry personnel, and they all joined in to discuss whether the ring-shaped space station of the Xinghai Group is a circle.

Xinghai Group, do you want to continue launching the space station?

What do they want to do in building such a large space station?

A few days later, the speculation of hundreds of millions of people around the world was confirmed.

Xinghai Group launched the fourth group of modules.

However, what is a little different is that there is an additional connecting bridge, which is called "Star Bridge" within Xinghai Group.

On this day, the time has come to May 19th.

However, Xinghai Group is unwilling to announce the plan of the space station.

Five days later, on May 24, Xinghai Group launched the fifth group of modules, and the launch interval was even shorter.

The arc has reached 93.75 degrees, just a little more than a quarter of a circle, and the prototype of the star ring space station has appeared.
