Chapter 840 Planetary Exploration Project
Here, Xu You met researcher Robert again, as well as a strange face.
This girl named Chris looks very young, but to be able to enter the SAM Space Agency and participate in the construction of the moon, she must be an outstanding young scholar.
"Hello, Academician Xu, Professor Lin, and Researcher Severi. My name is Chris. I am very happy to meet you all today, especially Academician Xu." Chris said with a smile.
Xu You and others shook hands with Chris and showed their respect to her.
"Although Researcher Chris is very young, she has already made a lot of achievements in the field of aerospace. Academician Xu, Professor Lin, Chris, like you, obtained the qualification for university admission through the Physics Olympiad. She won the first place in the world in the competition that year."
When this matter was mentioned, Xu You and Lin Shi looked at each other, both a little surprised.
Over the years, due to the heavy workload of research, Xu You and Lin Shi no longer have the time to pay attention to competition issues.
However, Xu You also had some impression of this. Indeed, in a physics competition one year, the first place in the individual competition was not won by a player from Shenzhou.
"So you were the first place winner of the Physics Olympiad that year. It's not easy to transition from a competitor to a researcher. According to statistics, there are still many Olympiad champions who didn't end up entering the field of scientific research."
"Thank you for the recognition from Academician Xu You. Ever since I was old enough to understand, Academician Xu You's deeds have deeply touched me and he has always been my role model. I am honored that I can now become a scientific researcher like Academician . If I can reach half of Academician Xu You's level, I will be very satisfied."
Xu You was about to answer, but Lin Shi spoke first:
"Your goal is really ambitious. If I can reach even one-tenth of the teacher's level, I will be very happy."
Lin Shi's statement is not an exaggeration, because Xu You has contributed dozens of Nobel Prize-level research. However, due to the restrictions on the award conditions, it is not possible for Xu You to win the Nobel Prize in Physics every year.
And the number of research projects in applied fields is countless.
In other words, being able to reach one-tenth of Xu You's scientific research results, he can indeed be called a top scientist on Blue Planet.
"Lin Shi, don't say that. The outcome is uncertain. Everyone is a dark horse. Including myself, I may not have reached my limit yet."
Xu You does not think that he is good enough now. In front of the Proxima civilization, the Blue Star civilization is just a follower. How can Xu You dare to say that he has reached a high level.
"Yes, I think so too. Of course, Professor Lin is also one of the scholars I admire very much and he is also my goal in learning."
Chris seemed neither humble nor arrogant. While reiterating that there was no problem with her goal, she also expressed her affirmation of Lin Shi.
After everyone chatted for a while, Robert brought up another topic.
"Academician Xu, regarding the planetary exploration project, my current idea is that our SAM Space Agency will explore Venus in the future. I wonder what Academician Xu You thinks about this?"
Speaking of planetary exploration projects, Xu You had his own plans before.
Now that the Blue Star civilization has developed to its current level, becoming an interstellar civilization is a path that must be taken.
The moon is the first extraterrestrial planet explored by humans on the blue planet, but it is just a satellite and has not yet reached the standard of a planet.
Among the eight planets in the solar system, in addition to the Blue Planet, there are three terrestrial planets, namely Mercury, Venus and Mars.
Among them, Mars is the planet that Xu You is most optimistic about. It has conditions that are more suitable for human habitation and may even have signs of life.
With the strength of the Shenzhou Space Agency, it is impossible to complete the exploration of all planets, and the SAM Space Agency must share part of the task.
Compared with Mars, the exploration of Venus is less difficult and less meaningful, and Xu You is also happy to let SAM Space Agency be responsible for this part of the task.
"I think it's fine. Of course, these things still need to be discussed with the Shenzhou Space Administration. After all, I don't have any position in the Shenzhou Space Administration. I'm just a part-time staff member."
Xu You continues to use this statement to express that he has no real power in the Shenzhou Space Administration.
"Okay, Academician Xu You, we will discuss this matter with the Shenzhou Space Administration later. But we believe that your opinion, Academician Xu You, is very important." Robert said with a smile.
In the following period of time, Xu You and others discussed the progress of the lunar planetary engine.
It was Severi's first time on the moon. She was tense the whole time and listened carefully to everyone's words, afraid of missing any tiny details.
…
A few days later.
Xu You and his companions have completed the mission and are preparing to return to Blue Star.
In order to save time, the few people will no longer choose the space elevator on the way back, but will take the Shenniao aerospace fighter back to the Blue Planet.
After all, the speed of the space elevator is relatively slow, it is not very comfortable to ride, and it requires a certain amount of waiting time. It is obviously not as convenient as riding in an aerospace fighter.
On the way, several people talked about their feelings on the moon.
"I never thought that the moon is such a beautiful planet. It is such a blessing for the blue planet to have such a satellite ."
Severi once again expressed her love for the moon.
At this time, Severi changed the subject.
"By the way, Mr. Xu, I see there are many planetary engines on the moon. Is this to allow the moon to one day break away from its original position and travel into space?"
Xu You was stunned when he heard the question raised by Severi.
In fact, the reason why so many planetary engines are built on the moon is to allow some of the Blue Star people to evacuate before they can no longer resist the attack of the Proxima civilization, so as to avoid the complete extinction of the Blue Star humans by the Proxima civilization.
Although the strength of the Blue Star civilization has greatly improved and it has the ability to fight against the Proxima civilization, the purpose of this alternative plan has not changed.
However, this reason has not been made public and only a very small number of insiders know it.
As for Severi, Xu You must not let her know the real reason.
