Gas Giant Development
Chapter 439:Gas Giant Development
After the annihilation of 1 gram of antimatter, the energy generated is equivalent to 43,000 tons of tnt, which is comparable to that of an ordinary atomic bomb and can easily level a small city.
Yes, only 1 gram.
And this thing can be more dangerous than a nuclear bomb, as long as the loss of magnetic constraints, immediately will come into contact with the outside of the positive material, resulting in a huge explosion.
Perhaps one day, a storage device loaded with a large number of antimatter, after the aging failed, the entire Noah's inside the moment exploded a thin rot, the new human inexplicably died like this.
“Well, that’s how the earth could be destroyed...we have to be careful!”Yu Yifeng laughed bitterly.
Professor Ding Yidong shook his head and said, "Don't worry too much, at the beginning we have no experience, and we can't create too much antimatter."Moreover, we can use a multi-layered magnetic confinement strategy, even if a device is broken, there is a spare... our Noah is above the gravityless, very suitable for the storage of this material...”
“New storage devices are also under development...”
In any case, human beings cannot be choked and antimatter production is still to be made.
In the conversation, the experimental collection spacecraft has gradually moved closer to the gaseous planet.The secondary ion engine in front starts and ejects a powerful blue ion jet for reverse deceleration.
“The hull is operating normally and is slowing down, with a current speed of 14.3 km/s, a small amount of hydrogen in space has been detected, and the radiation has increased significantly, and it is close to the top of the planet's atmosphere.”
Constantly passing information, the control room also constantly issues various feedback instructions.
"In ten minutes, the spacecraft will be officially captured by the gravity of the 'Dongfu 5' and is lowering its orbit...
“The countdown to sixty seconds begins, sixty-nine, fifty-eight—”
“Get to the scheduled track.”
“...the air pressure is 0.0053 standard atmosphere, and the gas collection work begins!”
As can be seen from the screen, four large sail-like structures are unfolding on the left and right sides of the ship, which are absorbing air inside.
These are gas-collecting sails, and the air compression device inside the spacecraft is activated to absorb large amounts of hydrogen as well as helium.Under this thin air, it takes about seven days to complete a collection.
Here are very safe boundaries, the air is thin and smooth, there is no turbulence, and there is no lightning.
Typically, the collection of spacecraft will only collect fuel at this altitude, but it will take a little longer.After collecting the fuel, a little acceleration can break free from the star's gravity, very simple, and there is not much danger.
However, this experiment is to measure the specific performance of the spacecraft, and must also go down specifically, at least close to the surface of the edge of the fou 5.
People use 10 times the atmospheric pressure of the earth as the atmospheric base of the "ruin 5", that is, the obvious dividing line between the gaseous planet and the space of the universe.
From this point of view of the spacecraft, the cyclonic storm on the gas giant planet is as clear as an oil painting.They move and roar on the surface of the planet, devouring and separating from each other, like a monstrous and huge monster.
These cyclonic storms are bigger than the Earth and smaller than the moon, and there is no doubt about their great power.If the spacecraft is really thrown into the atmosphere, it is estimated that ... it will not fly out.
Ten times the atmospheric pressure, hypervelocity storms, giant lightning, and high gravity, these unfavorable factors can immediately involve the spacecraft.
Seeing the scene of this great shore, Yu Yifeng also held the excitement in his heart and issued an order: "Continue to descend the orbital height!"
The ship continued to slow down and decline, and the surrounding air flow was getting stronger and stronger.
The air pressure...
The two air pressure...
Three air pressure...
As the airflow intensified, the temperature on the surface of the spacecraft began to rise, and the entire screen had already experienced sharp shaking.Four gas-collecting sails had to be recovered, and these things had a serious impact on the spacecraft’s flight.
"Well... if it's a research vessel, you should add some flow-line wings, and now the air resistance of this ship in this shape is really a little bit big."But in general it will not go down to such a place.”Professor Ding Yidong muttered to himself.
It is clear that the long lightnings are raging in the clouds below, they cut through the sky, and any one piece is more than a hundred times the size of the earth, releasing unparalleled energy.
The infinite power of nature can only be used, and it is impossible to spend a lot of effort to confront it, otherwise it is the behavior of fools.
A group of crazy scientists even excitedly discussed whether they could directly drop a superconducting wire into the concentration area of lightning and absorb the electricity inside.
“Why not?This is an off-the-shelf electrical energy ah, ultra-high voltage, used as an antimatter energy can not be better, what nuclear fusion is still used?I think it’s feasible!”An expert was full of excitement, obviously very satisfied with his whimsy.
A group of scientists is also discussing whether a probe can be sent into the interior of a gas giant to see what its core looks like.
"...the detector has to travel through more than 50,000 degrees of high temperature, which is hotter than the surface of the star, which is a little difficult."And a very high pressure.”
“...there should be a magma core inside, and the surface may see endless liquid metallic hydrogen, liquid helium, similar to the ocean.”But the temperature of this ocean is tens of thousands of degrees!”
Yu Yi Feng secretly wiped the cold sweat, but he was also a little curious.
Let them do it... just a little bit of supplies, and then really take any photos, you can open your eyes.
Perhaps, because of this relaxed and generous scientific research environment, the science and technology of the new human civilization will explode, and people will not be bound by their inherent ideas and do the scientific research projects they want to know.
At this time, the spacecraft has dropped to four atmospheric pressure areas, some exposed devices have been slightly altered, the internal artificial intelligence issued a large number of alarms, has dare not go down.
A staff member was asking Yi Feng whether he would still have to force orders to continue to decline.
"Sergeant, the limit should be about six atmospheres, and then go on, the spacecraft power system may not be enough, encounter high-speed cyclone may be involved, it is difficult to break free."
Yu Feng thought about it and shook his head.
Or forget it, although the new human civilization is big, it does not want to lose a ship in vain.
Moreover, the volume of this ship is relatively large, and now some goods are loaded, and the power of the explosion is certainly not strong.
After all, it is just a gas collection device, not the kind of skin-thick professional research spacecraft, this time the action, has fully proved its stability, can be qualified for fuel collection tasks.
Deep into the atmosphere, the rate of collecting fuel is indeed much faster.When the spacecraft broke out again, it took more than two hours to break free from the cyclone, and it was loaded with nearly 30,000 tons of nuclear fuel.
Seeing the ship break free and steadily entering the calm area again, all the staff sitting in the room made a small cheer.
Even Yi Feng is also a long breath: "Just collect fuel at this height."After returning, check the specific parameters of this experiment to see if there are any places that can be adjusted ... and then report the specific data to the Ministry of Industry.If there's nothing wrong with it, it can be mass-produced."
In this way, with the collection of spacecraft, the development of the entire gaseous planet was successfully implemented.
The entire development project is estimated to take one to two years to complete successfully, and there are still a large number of supporting facilities to be done.
“Basically, all the plans are going on ... the momentum is very good.”
This matter was solved, and Yi Feng was full of joy at the time, because it meant that there were resources to enter the account, and it was a lot of energy!
Both hydrogen and helium are important industrial raw materials.Helium needless to say, hydrogen can be used to reduce carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, to produce organic matter.
This kind of scrooge feeling is really good.
“Industry, military, or other hairways, are thriving...” He was walking and thinking carefully about what else could be replenished.
After returning to his office, he found a report on his computer desk.
"There are calls among the people who want to travel to the stars?"They are learning the indigenous languages.”
"There is such a beautiful planet, want to experience the star scenery, it is very normal..."
“I’m concerned about the progress of the team.”
