He-3 Nuclear Bomb
Chapter 39:He-3 Nuclear Bomb
At 3:36 p.m., in the crater of Ekri, a light that had never appeared in ancient times suddenly shone.
Only the huge dark purple plume rose to 20,000 meters in a second, and continued to rise, and the dazzling light illuminated the whole earth!
The huge fireball with a diameter of almost five kilometers rolled and rose, while it changed from dark purple to orange, and the sphere expanded sharply, as if a natural great force that had been bound for hundreds of millions of years was suddenly released!
The moon has no atmosphere, gravity is small, and the scene of a nuclear explosion is completely different from that of the Earth.
Because its surface is a vacuum environment, it is impossible to transmit shock waves, so the killing range is much smaller, but the dust that rises up in the sky instantly gains strong kinetic energy, constantly spreading outward, and some even break free of the moon's gravity and fly directly to space.
Scientists are busy in an instant, satellites are constantly collecting data, and various scientific instruments have begun to mobilize, and there are even slight tremors under the feet.However, this shock has been very weak to the base.
Through the moon's satellite map, you can see that the extremely powerful light radiation in the vacuum almost no obstacle, in an instant, the extremely high temperature instantly turned the dust into plasma.
The electromagnetic pulse was almost simultaneously scattered around, and the entire screen was shaking.
“This is ... the satellite is subjected to electromagnetic pulses, overloaded.”A scientist stopped his movements and explained to himself.When the satellite is designed, it has anti-solar wind functions and will automatically turn off when subjected to a large number of electromagnetic pulses to avoid damage.
“Start the backup device!”
“Return data collected by the rover!”
This little trouble is obviously difficult to fail people, one after another data collection, recorded in the archives.
Ding Yidong's eyebrows began to roll, and his face was obviously rosy.
Although the nuclear bomb exploded, it was not necessarily successful, and only after data analysis, the test was in line with the level of one million equivalents, which was called a real success.
"Congratulations, Professor Ding."
“Congratulations!Celebrating in advance!”
“Thank you, thank you all!”
Although the final result has not yet come out, everyone has begun to congratulate Ding Yidong in advance.These scientists are very sensitive to data, and although they have not yet been analyzed by computer, they can basically be said to be ten.An atmosphere of joy floated in the air.
“All right, comrades!”Yu Yifeng was also slightly excited, he coughed and said, “First of all, we want to thank Professor Ding Yidong for his dedication over the years.”The technologies he invented played a vital role in this experiment, and we would like to express our sincere gratitude to him.”
The applause below was thunderous, and many people had seen Ding Yidong's paper, which was indeed very level.This is true talent, not nonsense, such people are always worthy of respect.
“When you go back, analyze the data.Then consider the possibility of replacing the hydrogen bomb with a helium-3 nuclear bomb.At eight o'clock tonight, we have another meeting."
Although it was eight o'clock in the evening, the time was relatively late, but no one had any complaints, everyone was used to it.In other words, everyone is very energetic in the face of new things, and they rush back to analyze the data.
...
The eight-point meeting began on time, and a debate about helium-3 began, coming not only to the scientists, but also to a large number of engineers, which was arguably a more important meeting.
The theme of the meeting was two, first, to explore the possibility of replacing the hydrogen bomb with helium-3; and second, to discuss the "One Billion-ton Nuclear Bomb Promotion Plan" by Professor Ding Yidong.
“Good evening, comrades.”
Yu Yifeng stood in front of the meeting, and he was very accustomed to this scene.“This afternoon’s helium-3 nuclear test is known to everyone.Now let me tell you the final result: our scientists have calculated that the nuclear bomb in this test was finally released.
“The energy of the 1.016 million tons of tnt explosion is basically in line with the expected.”
“This experiment is a complete success!”
The people below began to applaud warmly and stopped for a long time.
“Well, then proceed to the first theme of today's meeting: to explore the possibility of replacing the hydrogen bomb with helium-3.”
“First of all, I explain why we are doing this, because our energy shortage has led to serious delays in some engineering projects.”
"In more than three months, we have only produced less than 4 million tons of steel, 500,000 tons of copper, titanium, aluminum and other non-ferrous metals less, seriously not meeting expectations."The main reason is the lack of energy.”
Yifeng listed a series of tables on the screen, which listed the progress of various projects of the base in the past three months, including metal smelting, internal facilities construction, engine construction, mining volume and so on.
The people here are all responsible for all walks of life, familiar with their own projects, but they are not very clear about the others.Their numbers have an intuitive view, to be honest, the data given by Yi Feng is generally much worse than expected.
The atmosphere in the venue was immediately quiet, and some of the whisperings were gone.
This has poured cold water on the hearts of many people, just yesterday opened the party, many people are still immersed in that crazy ambition.After returning to reality, the cold data gave them a stick.
Only 56% of the projects are up to standard, and 44% of the projects are lagging behind!This is a lot worse than they thought.Most of the people here know the truth about the imminent destruction of the moon, and whether the progress is good or bad, humans must leave the moon!
The project is not completed and leaves, the consequences can be imagined.
Those who lagged behind the project leaders bowed their heads in shame, and there was some grievances in their hearts.They have really done their best.
“I say here, it is not a human problem, but an energy problem.”Yu Yifeng timely relief: "Our previous calculations are still too optimistic, there are some deviations, no matter how to save, energy is still not enough!"
“So I’m here to give a solution ... that is to cut down the hydrogen bomb project, replace it with a more energy-efficient helium-3 nuclear bomb, and use the energy for production!”He also gave some data, the hydrogen bomb plan to consume a total of about 30% of the energy of the entire base, if this part is all saved ...
The plan sounded good, and the people below began to talk about it.
However, in order for them to suddenly overturn the original plan and change it to a new one, in fact, many people are not very acceptable, or need time to digest.People are a kind of creature that does not like to be workaround, even if the new scheme is better and better, but people will still feel awkward or feel risky in the middle of the day.
“Mr. Yu Yifeng, do you say that the helium-3 nuclear bomb is reliable?”We only tested this weapon once!”An engineer asked.
“Your concerns are not unreasonable.This question should be explained by Professor Ding Yidong.”Yuefeng Road.
Ding Yidong took the stage and took out the speech that had already been prepared and cooperated with the slide speech.He has been preparing for a long time, trying to convert the esoteric content into something that everyone can understand.
The main content highlights two points: First, he has been studying for more than ten years, the core content has been explored very thoroughly, and second, mainstream scientists agree with his plan.
How to explain the technology, it is better to promote their own authority.The art has a specialization, anyway, most people do not understand, more than directly said "I am the authority, you must believe me!"
His approach looks good, and many people’s emotions are starting to stabilize and seem a little receptive.Looking at the mainstream scientific authority, it is also more acceptable to accept this program.
Then, Ding Yidong introduced the final topic of "1 billion tons of helium-3 nuclear bomb promotion plan"!
"I'm going to give you a new plan here, it's better to build a billion-ton helium-3 nuclear bomb and bomb it.Time-saving, labor-saving, efficient and fast!”
It was like a bombshell falling into the crowd!
