Chapter 356 [Shield solution? 】

"Comrade Gu Cheng, how is your equipment prepared?"

Hearing Yue Bowen's voice from the other end of the communication again, Gu Cheng swipe and click on the desktop smart screen for a moment, and quickly call up a list of information to check.

"The 221 sets of PA4.0 power armor have been sealed and put into storage, and they can be picked up and put into use at any time."

"Well, I will send someone over to take it away within three days."

As soon as the communication was over, Gu Cheng finished processing some documents and left the Hive headquarters, driving to Tianqing Industrial Center.

When I came to Tianqing Industry, it happened that the second Skyblade spaceship came out of the production line and was being transported out of Tianqing Industrial Center. Like last time, the spaceship was still transported out of Shangdu by the old method the next day, by water and land transportation. Da Chongming Island's air force base.

Right now, the "dual-track sky-earth" exercise is getting closer and closer, and the first military aerospace transport aircraft is still being manufactured, which is much smaller than the Skyblade spacecraft.

The transportation unit of this exercise is the second spacecraft, but it has to go through the first flight test. If the second spacecraft that has just come out of the production line fails to complete the first flight mission, it cannot undertake the mission of this exercise.

But the military also has a second contingency plan. The exercise is to use the first Skyblade spacecraft to rescue the scene. This spacecraft has traveled to and from the Earth-Moon system many times. It can be said that it has been tested for a long time, but it is more reassuring.

A large number of citizens of the commercial city are watching strongly. Although many people have seen it before, it is only the last time that they watched it at such a close distance.

Gu Cheng didn't pay too much attention, and arrived at the R&D Center of Tianqing Industrial Zone 10 minutes later.

Seeing Gu Cheng coming, Zhou Huang stepped forward and said, "Boss, the scientists are already in the meeting room."

Gu Cheng entered the conference room. The dozen or so scholars present were all technical experts hired by Tianqing Technology Group. Gu Cheng didn't drag his feet and said bluntly when he came in: "I received the news yesterday that the country is going to give me Tianqing Technology. It is an important research and development topic, and we hope that we can provide a defense solution for cities or industrial cluster centers that may be attacked by enemy space-based ultra-high energy directed energy weapons."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. This so-called enemy would be someone else. Some time ago, Lockheed Martin released a video of a GW-level ultra-high directed energy weapon, which has been confirmed to be true.

A professor attending the meeting said: "The characteristic of high-energy weapons is that they cannot be intercepted. In theory, they basically cannot meet the defense requirements. They can only preemptively destroy the attack source before the opponent stores energy to attack."

Everyone nodded silently.

High-energy weapons are really impossible to intercept, and light-speed strikes are impossible to intercept. Once a war or even a full-scale war breaks out, your own heavy industrial cities and densely populated cities will become the priority targets of the local government. Taking into account what is inhumane and inhumane, and destroying the other side is above all else, this is war.

It can be said that Tianqing Technology is definitely the first choice among the opponent's first choices.

At this time, another professor who participated in the meeting said: "Light screens can be used for defense, but if it is used for city defense, it will definitely not work. You can't build a super large pot cover to cover the city."

Everyone laughed helplessly. This method is definitely not feasible. The difficulty, engineering, and investment are not acceptable. The surface of the earth is different from that in space. It is difficult to find a solution to a problem that is just unfolding.

What's more, if you build a light screen device in the sky above Shangdu, a typhoon will lift the lid of your big pot in minutes, and the earth's surface is undergoing atmospheric activities all the time, unlike in outer space.

There is basically no need to consider the plan of the light screen device, it must be a bad idea.

Gu Cheng immediately said: "Destroying the launch source directly is naturally the best, but the probability of war is very low right now. Lao Mei wants to send laser weapons to high-altitude orbits. There is no reason for us not to let him do that, otherwise it will be a real disaster." There will be a fight, but if you don’t have a reliable countermeasure, the probability of a war will also continue to soar.”

Obviously, the country has national considerations, and the first thing to consider is to take precautions.

Zhou Huang, who was also in the conference room, spread his hands and said: "Except for monetizing in an offensive way to defend, it seems that there is no way to defend. Laomei really wants to go to Shangdu and sweep down the laser beams, even if the sky base is destroyed. platform, but the damage on the ground has already been done, and the difference is the degree of damage.”

Gu Cheng said with a smile: "Not necessarily, what if Shangdu has a huge energy matrix to generate an energy shield that can cover the entire city?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at Gu Cheng in astonishment, and Zhou Huang reminded weakly: "Boss, this is not a science fiction novel. Although the energy shield is a lofty idea, it is not suitable for the current human technology. Level, my Tianqing technology can represent the world's pole, but I can't invent such high-end technology as energy shield."

Everyone is familiar with the idea of ​​energy shields, and don’t even get too familiar with them. Let’s talk about science fiction, sci-fi movies, or sci-fi games. Energy shields are standard technology. Without this technology I'm ashamed to say I'm writing a science fiction novel or a science fiction movie.

However, when Gu Cheng put forward this idea at the seminar, everyone began to argue about the facts, and had a big discussion with each other around this topic.

A professor of physics at the meeting said: "Based on the knowledge system we humans have mastered, there is a method that is theoretically feasible, that is, the Einstein ring or the gravitational lens. Perhaps starting from the gravitational wave, the gravitational force in space Propagate in the form of waves, the speed of this wave is equal to the speed of light, gravitational waves will distort the space, and the light around the black hole is deflected, not because of the bending of light, but because of the effect of gravity on space."

When Gu Cheng heard the word gravitational wave, he immediately thought of a basic scientific research project funded by the company, the space gravitational wave detection project. It has been a long time since I said it, and this plan is still in progress.

Soon, one of the participating scholars shook his head repeatedly and said: "This is too sci-fi, and even more unrealistic. This is not an energy shield, but a force field shield. Einstein devoted the rest of his life to realizing the electromagnetic force and gravitational force." If the unification of electromagnetic force and gravitational force can be realized, a technology such as force field shield may be born.”

The scholars present discussed a lot, and agreed that the energy shield cannot be achieved without the factor of force.

Then they continued to discuss with each other.

A professor said: "This kind of shield should produce a kind of repulsive force. Electromagnetic force and electrostatic force have a repulsive effect. Electromagnetic force is effective for iron, cobalt, nickel and other metals, but the repulsive force of electrostatic force has no restrictions. , so, I think the energy shield should be analyzed from the perspective of electrostatic force."

"The principle of electrostatic repulsion should be known to middle school students. Objects with the same charge have repulsion, so it is necessary to generate the same charge on the outer surface of personnel and equipment. This does not seem to be difficult. Use the ability to separate positive and negative charges, and then separate one One charge is conducted away, leaving only the other charge, thus creating a charged body with only one charge."

Immediately afterwards, another old professor who participated in the meeting questioned: "The problem is that this is only effective for the output of directed energy such as charged particles, but photons are not charged, and there are high-energy protons. The same is true for bullets and missiles. Uncharged, so even if you approach this single-charged body, there will be no repulsion, and there will be charge attraction."

"Another problem is that it is possible to use a wire to complete the effect on the flying object and the charged body, so that the uncharged object like a bullet can be charged with the same kind of charge to generate repulsion, but the problem comes again, how can there be Such wires. There are definitely no wires, but there are rays, α rays, β rays, etc. These rays themselves are electrifying, and they also have the characteristics of ionizing air.”

"That is to say, it is possible to charge the bullet through the ray. As long as the bullet is charged enough, it can generate enough repulsion. Even if it is a photon ray, although it is not charged, quantum mechanics tells us that the photon with zero static mass hits the Electrons with mass are absorbed."

Speaking of this, the professor then added: "But there are many practical problems to be solved, and one of them is almost catastrophic. If the medium is alpha rays, beta rays or other electrical media, the emission source Radioactivity can contaminate an entire city, that's one of them."

"The second is that the electrostatic force is an extremely small force compared to macroscopic objects. To generate sufficient repulsion, sufficient charges need to be generated. Even high-energy gamma photons of microscopic objects also need to generate sufficient charges to absorb them."

"The third is that when one kind of charge is generated, an equal amount of another kind of charge will be generated at the same time. How can the other kind of charge be guided away? It is relatively easy to do on the earth, and the other kind of charge can be guided away by a guide. But the first two problems are almost unsolvable, and other problems may be encountered, let alone, the first problem alone is enough for physicists and engineers to study for most of their lives."

At the end of the discussion, everyone at the meeting stared wide-eyed.

The first solution is harmless to the human body, but it is beyond the current level of human industrial manufacturing, and cannot be realized; while the second solution may not be impossible to achieve with the current level of technology, if the power of the country is used, the problem is that the radiation is harmful to the human body. The hazards are catastrophic.

In the end, everyone looked at Gu Cheng who didn't say a few words.
