Great Power Technology: Domination Of The World Starts With Chips

Of course, if superconducting laser weapons become popular in the future, then laser anti-missile is not impossible.

At that time, other people's intercontinental nuclear missiles will be directly blasted into slag by the laser anti-missile satellite as soon as they enter the orbit at a height of several hundred kilometers, and then explode, and the explosion of a nuclear bomb at a height of several hundred kilometers will not affect the ground .

Moreover, the nuclear warheads of various countries are basically hydrogen bombs, and hydrogen bombs are a kind of clean nuclear bombs, because they are based on fusion rather than fission, so even if they explode, they will not cause much harm.

Therefore, this is also a technology that Huaguo is secretly developing.

Of course, instead of saying it is secretly, it is better to say that everyone knows that you are doing research in secret, and you also know that everyone knows that you are doing research in secret.

In fact, countries including the United States are also researching it. After all, as long as there is a room temperature superconductor, this thing can be researched.

Of course, they obtained room-temperature superconductors through some illegal channels, and the destination of room-temperature superconductors was strictly regulated by Zhiqi Company, so this also made Zhiqi Company a lot of money.

However, if these normal-temperature superconductors are quenched, that is, after losing their superconducting properties, Zhiqi Company will naturally not help to repair them.

...

The test flight mission of the aerospace plane will begin soon, and the experts who were invited to the scene have also come to the ground control center.

Three labor force (x) pilots called by Ye Cheng entered the cabin, and the ground command center also began to report various indicators.

"Altitude...wind direction...no planes in the sky..."

"Certified to take off."

With this sound, inside the aerospace plane, the three laborers just sat on their seats, fastened with seat belts, and wore oxygen masks, and did nothing else.

But all the buttons on the control console before takeoff were automatically pressed, until finally, the throttle lever was automatically pulled up.

The next moment, the tail engine of the Dragon God spacecraft suddenly "hummed", and then, the huge body began to move forward.

And the moving speed is getting faster and faster, and it didn't take long to be accelerated to the take-off speed, which is almost 280 kilometers per hour.

At this time, the lift brought by the air to the Dragon God was enough to take off, and then the joystick was automatically pulled up again, and the huge fuselage suddenly rose into the sky, and rushed straight to a higher place.

Obviously its journey is not a small stratosphere, but a sea of ​​stars...

But that's not the point.

The key point is whether it can fly to the warm layer smoothly, and realize the switch from aviation mode to spaceflight mode.

Of course, just talking about the ability of this thing to fly into the sky has already proved another point, Zhiqi Company already has the ability to build airplanes.

After considering it, it is an aerospace aircraft, which is even more terrifying, because this is something that aircraft manufacturers such as Airbus and Boeing cannot produce.

And in the foreseeable future, aerospace aircraft will inevitably become a mainstream. Unlike rockets, even if there is a first-level rocket recovery technology, there will be second-level recovery, and third-level recovery?

Rockets always have wear and tear, and once an aerospace plane succeeds, it only consumes fuel.

But how much is the fuel worth? The cost of launching a rocket is hundreds of millions, but the fuel only accounts for a few million of it.

What's more, the aerospace plane consumes aviation fuel during the take-off phase, not aerospace fuel, and the fuel consumption during the rocket's take-off phase is the largest.

And the aerospace plane avoids this part.

Then one can imagine how low the cost of a single operation of an aerospace plane is.

For example, SpaceX’s Falcon 9 costs about 40 million U.S. dollars for a single launch. Of course, this includes the cost of the first-stage rocket, and the cost of the first-stage rocket is about 70%, and even if one The cost of a single-stage rocket is still more than 10 million U.S. dollars for a single launch.

And what about aerospace planes?

Just like civil aviation.

Fuel costs, and maintenance costs.

These two estimates are less than two million.

Then when the time comes, the entire large aerospace plane with 100 people will be advertised. Passengers who want to see the universe can get on the plane by paying 100,000 yuan. By the way, they will receive a mission to deliver supplies to the space station, or send satellites, etc. , I am afraid that this sum can earn hundreds of millions. The reason why SpaceX makes money is inseparable from this technology.

Thinking about it this way, the surrounding experts didn't know what to say.

How the hell can Zhiqi Company make money!

...

"Dragon God has entered the stratosphere and is continuing to rise. The current altitude has exceeded 20,000 meters."

"...It has broken through 25,000 meters."

...

"Up to 60,000 meters."

"The current air density cannot continue to provide sufficient lift, and the speed of the Dragon God has begun to decrease, and it is now switched to spaceflight mode."

At an altitude of 60,000 meters, that is, in the sky of 60 kilometers.

The engine of the Dragon God spacecraft stopped running gradually, and then the sound of rotation sounded from inside the engine. After about ten seconds passed, a more violent flame was suddenly ejected from it, driving the Dragon God directly to the ground. The dark blue and black sky.

"Successful switching of aerospace mode."

The ground command center received a response, and cheers erupted immediately.
