Chapter 505 The Future!
Beyond the roar of fighter planes, the visible shock waves, the scattered clouds, the surging waves and the vibration of the camera.
The superposition of so many images made all the people watching the live broadcast in front of them open their eyes wide and their mouths wide open, completely unaware of what they were feeling or feeling at the moment!
What's this?!
“This, this, this…”
Sihaiweijia was also watching CNN's live broadcast, and his face was full of shock.
As a science anchor, he could vaguely understand what this thing was, but it was completely unbelievable!
Looking at the surging sea and the tall tower, he was finally completely sure that this was what he had guessed.
"This is a truly epoch-making science fiction thing that only exists in concept! It's a mass projector! It uses electromagnetic force to launch satellites directly into orbit! Holy shit! This is too fantastic!"
Sihaiweijia let out a strange scream in front of the camera.
There are so many technical difficulties that need to be overcome for this thing, not just the launch, but also the structure of the satellite itself, atmospheric obstructions, super strong magnetic fields, energy, orbits, etc. It can be said that each difficulty may represent a Nobel Prize-level achievement!
However, Umbrella did it!
“I don’t know whether Umbrella’s launch was successful or not, but I can only tell you that Umbrella really went too far this time!
"If I had to describe it, you could think of this as a super-powered version of the electromagnetic gun that Umbrella used last time in Africa!"
At this point, Sihaiweijia's eyes lit up in front of the camera, then he tapped his hands and said
"I see! Umbrella's electromagnetic gun technology uses this, it's a continuation of the same tradition. Plus, didn't Umbrella provide their high-strength carbon fiber paper before? It's very likely that they have begun to use room-temperature superconductivity on a regular basis!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the comments were in an uproar.
"Practical application of room-temperature superconductivity? Terrible!"
"I heard that superconductors can be used to make chips, is that right?"
"Then doesn't Umbrella have to take off right here?"
“…”
Various problems followed one after another.
But Sihaiweijia still explained one sentence
"If Umbrella uses physical pressurization technology, it may not be able to make chips at present, because chips are too delicate. Pressurization on such a structure will definitely not work. It is not as practical as low-temperature superconductors. However , if it is something fixed like this, it will be much easier. Of course, I am just speculating, and it is hard to say whether this launch will be successful. Once it succeeds, it will open a new chapter in space..."
However, not every nesting doll anchor understands what this is.
A standard public intellectual anchor who tends to complain and is friendly and pretty, but at this moment, he keeps making all kinds of weird remarks like a talk show.
"Wow, I didn't see the rocket, I just saw a firecracker. What was that just now? Did it explode? It exploded before it was launched, awesome."
"Why hasn't the rocket arrived yet? Do we have to wait for them to move it temporarily? Haha."
"Umbrella is strong, but I feel like they miscalculated this time."
After all, the previous launch had caused quite a lot of noise. Not only was the sound deafening, but even the cruise ship was shaken a little.
If one does not understand the principle, it is easy to mistake it for an explosion.
Most of the people who come to watch his live broadcast have similar views.
"Brother Chi is right. It feels like Umbrella is just forcing them to do something they are not prepared for ."
"Haha, this company is too overbearing . It's getting its comeuppance."
"That's right, he disobeys discipline. I used to be a fan of Umbrella, but ever since the beautiful lady sanctioned him and he still didn't obey, I've become really annoyed with him."
"They can do whatever they want just because they have a few skills."
"Yes, he even created his own military force. It's just that Da Piaoliang doesn't want to take him seriously, otherwise the aircraft carrier fleet would teach him a lesson in a minute."
"That's right. Someone said before that Da Piaoliang's normal training was to run away. How ignorant..."
“…”
However, their happy base in their own private area was soon slapped in the face by the animated picture released by Umbrella’s official website.
"The satellite has successfully entered orbit."
After seeing the reminder message in the barrage, Chi Zi immediately took a closer look.
Umbrella did not hold any press conference, but only updated the status on the official website and simply posted a schematic diagram.
In fact, the schematic diagram is really quite simple. It is equivalent to an electromagnetic gun that directly shoots satellites into space!
You may not understand it when looking at the real thing, but once this simplest schematic diagram comes out, everyone can understand what is going on.
Is this the Umbrella launch?
"Wow, satellites can be launched like this?"
Although Chi Zi also felt that this seemed to be very impressive, the schematic diagram was quite simple, and it didn't seem to be a big deal. He smiled and said
"Isn't this just cheating? Isn't it the equivalent of a cannonball hitting space? It seems normal for such a large cannon. The idea is very good, but Da Piaoliang must be stronger in this aspect. They don't use it. There must be a flaw. I just don't know what the flaw is."
At this point, he paused and continued
"So all in all, SX's reusable rockets are definitely better. They launch one at a time, while they launch thirty the first time and fifty the second time. They can also be recycled, which is much better than this."
A small number of replies were also like "That's right" and "That's right".
But after all, there are still many people who can understand the horror of this through the pictures. I don’t know how to respond. I can only watch them having fun over there, and then quietly exit the live broadcast room...
…
Not to mention the reactions of netizens, fans and various anchors online.
Also watching the entire process were space agencies from various countries, SX Corporation, and even some bigwigs from academia and laboratories.
At this time, their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
"This is impossible!"
"It's fake, right? It should be just an electromagnetic cannon firing, not a satellite, right? And it didn't enter orbit, right?"
"Even if they use superconductivity, this height is not enough! Wait, do they have more underwater?"
"If it's not a circular structure like the collider, then there must be more underwater."
"What about energy? They rely on solar energy and tidal energy, and at most oil-fired power generation, which is not enough. Haven't you seen them transport coal? Could it be nuclear power?!"
"This is too fake! Can a real satellite operate normally? What kind of material can withstand such abuse!"
After all parties gradually thought of the materials, they all stopped at the same time.
this……
Umbrella's strongest point has always been its materials.
Relying on magic, their materials break through human cognition and bottom line.
Although it doesn't subvert the theory of physics, it is at least too extreme in practice.
If it was Umbrella, it might be possible to come up with this kind of material...
Look at the simple picture on Umbrella's official website, and then watch the live broadcast on CNN.
The real top leaders who were paying attention to all sides could not help but fall silent.
Now we don’t know their consumption or their transmission frequency.
"The energy consumption of such high power must be huge. Even if they have their own unique skills in storing electricity, it will take time to fully charge it."
"Yes, they wouldn't really install a nuclear-powered reactor, would they? They wouldn't be allowed to do it themselves without going through the IAEA, would they?"
"So what if they are not allowed? Haven't they always been like this? The principle of nuclear power is very simple, but how did they get the things involved? Where are the raw materials?"
“…”
…
The head of NASA was wiping the sweat off his forehead with a wet towel, and then he said calmly:
"Even if they can handle the materials, it will take time to get the energy. We should not panic. We should speed up the manufacturing of new rockets while quickly passing restrictive international space terms. Let them all come together to discuss this, immediately!"
He paused here, then continued
"Also notify Umbrella, and let's work together to draw up a charter."
Fortunately, I was smart and spread the word at the beginning. Now I just need to find out their launch capabilities and make some corresponding arrangements.
On the other side, Masra was staring at the repeating screen in front of him in a daze.
Thinking about the reusable rocket he had just successfully launched, and the second launch he had started working overtime before their test launch, he suddenly felt that his behavior was a little ridiculous.
"Regardless of whether it consumes energy or not, and regardless of the frequency, at least they have made something. Even if it may not be as good as rockets in the short term, this is the new direction..."
Just like early firearms were not as useful as cold weapons.
With the update and iteration, this replacement is inevitable!
The opponent's mass projector is something that can press the rocket to the ground and rub it.
But the next moment, a ray of determination flashed in Masla's eyes.
"Although, they are the future, the number of low orbits is limited. I can occupy the entire 'future' before you mature!"
As long as we don't give them any chances, there is still a chance!
Mobilize all the forces of Da Piaoliang, mass-produce rockets as quickly as possible, and fill the sky with Starlink as quickly as possible!
But at this time, Umbrella's official website issued another notice
"The test launch is complete. Next, we will fulfill our promise. Please enjoy the unique fireworks..."
The next moment, as CNN continued its amazing live broadcast, lightning appeared again on the launch tower of the projector.
Boom~Boom~Boom~
Every time you bombard it, you have to retreat, and every time you bombard it, you have to wait for recovery.
However, this happens as frequently as a cannon, which starts reloading for the next round just after it recovers!
Moreover, this tower seems to be able to make some fine adjustments in direction, and you can see it swinging constantly from above.
Rays of light cut through the sky and rushed straight into the atmosphere.
It looks like the launcher of Candy Crush Saga, stable and non-stop!
The Falcon rocket is awesome. After launch and recovery, it can be launched again within two hours after correction.
But, it seems that this mass projector can be re-launched two minutes after launch...
