Chapter 740: Space Folding Experiment
"Space folding experiment, the 109th application experiment begins, the 10-minute countdown, the "Apocalypse" spacecraft that asked all personnel to evacuate immediately...9 minutes...8 minutes..."
The huge cave library slowly unfolded, and a streamlined spacecraft slowly drew out the gate of the cave library. Around the straight runway, countless engineering vehicles and support equipment, evacuated from their original locations, as if they were scattered around.
With the huge launch command center, the pictures inside the spacecraft are divided into more than 100 independent units. Within these units, all pre-set procedures and steps are activated and operated from sleep one by one.
"…The central control room of the spacecraft is activated and started working, and all monitoring data is normal."
“…The nuclear fusion reactor begins to preheat, and the rocket booster is ready to ignite!”
"…The fully automatic intelligent robots are in their place, and the simulated life support system starts to work."
"…R zone, environmental simulation unit, gravity sensing and control unit, No. 1098, loop abnormality, loop abnormality, energy overflow signs, energy overflow signs!"
"…The experiment continues, the power supply of the magic array is reduced by 10%..."
"... Troubleshooting, troubleshooting, No. 1098, data is returned to the range of normal reading tables, and all other data is normal."
"Records that the inscribed materials of the magic array are not up to date. I suspect that the purification of the fine gold is insufficient. I informed the project command center and instructed the relevant responsible persons to make rectifications immediately."
“…”
"The last minute countdown, the nuclear fusion reactor is preheated, the rocket booster is ready to ignite, and the space folding laboratory is pre-started!"
“…”
"Countdown to the last ten seconds, 9, 8, 7, 6... Ignite!"
Four huge howling sounds connected together appeared. At the stern of the spaceship, four arranged flame vents spewed backwards at the same time. The flames completed the color change in a very short time. When the color of the flames turned into blazing white, the huge spaceship moved, and on the straight runway of several kilometers, it became faster and faster.
A minute later, the spacecraft that had glided for 1.2 kilometers soared into the air. The huge hull carried extremely abundant kinetic energy and initially overcome the influence of gravity. In a very short time, it reached the first cosmic speed and soared to a height of tens of thousands of meters.
The movement of the spacecraft taking off even caused a very short local air pressure change. After the spacecraft left the base and ran to it, a strong wind swept the ground. However, the command center hidden underground remained unmoved. At this time, it had reached the second important environment of the experiment.
Due to the huge volume and mass of the spacecraft, the materials that make up the spacecraft have not been met so far. When the spacecraft initially overcomes the earth's gravity, the huge energy output of the nuclear fusion reactor may cause the spacecraft's own material to be overloaded and collapsed.
Just like a wood-made aircraft fuselage is equipped with a powerful rocket engine, so before the spacecraft reaches near the ground, the utilization of the nuclear fusion reactor is not worth the effort. Therefore, the power of the spacecraft to take off is still powered by optimized and modified rocket power.
"18 kilometers...19 kilometers...20 kilometers...the spacecraft enters the predetermined position, the rocket booster leaves, the nuclear fusion reactor starts, the power is 20%, 30%, 40%, power docking, 10, 9, 8, 7...the output is successful, the second cosmic speed..."
A brief cheer sounded for a few seconds, and the experimental command center fell into a tense surveillance and waiting again. Various timely monitoring data of the spacecraft came one after another, and more than ten minutes later...
"...The output power of the nuclear fusion reactor is 60%, the power is locked, all the data of the power unit is normal, and it begins to leave the satellite orbit, enter space, the route is normal, the speed is normal, and the space folding laboratory is opened!"
"...The monitoring screen is transferred to the space folding laboratory, the main control computer of the spacecraft takes over the experimental steps, and begins to closely monitor the data of the spacecraft, and starts to monitor and store all data indicators of the life support system... Ten seconds countdown, 10, 9, 8, 7...The experiment is started!"
"...Ship position, X:EY201, Y:DA022, Z:CV76, Spacecraft position assigned value: A. Target folding position: X:E109, Y:D011, Z:C217, Target folding position assigned value: B, Magic array matrix unit is normal, planarization begins..."
The most critical step is here. In the experimental control room, thousands of people were silent. On countless large screens, various timely pictures, animation displays, charts, data, etc. Some were flowing down like waterfalls, and some were like the world in a kaleidoscope. The pictures were fragmented, colorful, and the tense and high-pressure atmosphere allowed everyone to hear their heartbeat. Within the ten seconds of waiting, everyone lived like years, for fear of seeing an explosion spark again, and for fear of hearing the beeping of the alarm again.
True interstellar navigation must solve the huge bottleneck of speed. In the vast universe, even if the theoretical limit of speed is reached - the speed of light, it cannot support the arrival of the real interstellar era. Only space jumps, wormhole tunnels and space folding. This technology that was previously only existed in science fiction can allow humans on Earth to step out of the solar system and enter the infinitely broad interstellar journey.
Under normal circumstances, the scientific and technological level of contemporary earth is far from reaching any of the above three technologies. However, the originally extremely far, slim and difficult climbing path has now appeared. On this turning path, the threshold for space technology is far lower than that of the earth's technology.
In war, in the face of the crisis of life and death, and in the threat of civilization being overthrown and destroyed, huge resource investment, and the united and gathering the highest wisdom and the greatest resources can only carry out practical experiments on space folding in such a short time.
"AB point planarization is successful, planarization space is formed, folding reaction, nuclear fusion reactor power is fully opened, 70%, 80%, 90%, locking, locking, energy supply exceeds, energy supply exceeds, loop overload 500%, warning, warning..."
"Shut down the nuclear fusion reactor, immediately, immediately!"
"The spacecraft central control computer has turned off the excess energy supply, time before 5 seconds!"
"What about the latest data, the latest data? Why is there a signal delay? Why is the quantum communication unit not started?"
"The spacecraft signal is lost..."
"Damn it!!"
Everyone was depressed and the experiment failed again. This was the closest success. After the goddess of luck showed a smile, she became stingy again. Just as everyone was separated from the state of the experiment and was about to analyze the reasons for the failure of this experiment, a weak voice prompted: "Report, report, no monitoring of the explosion of the spacecraft reactor, no energy..."
Everyone was stunned. Without waiting for them to react, an ecstatic voice shouted, "The signal of the spacecraft was found again and appeared at point B. The experiment was successful. The spacecraft spanned a distance of 450,000 kilometers in 0.1 second, and appeared in..."
