Code name, Nantianmen!

As soon as the name of the "Space City" attached to the space elevator came out, it immediately caused an uproar!

Another oriental name!

Considering that Master Yi himself has a very close relationship with Umbrella and is an extremely key figure, plus the cooperation between a large country and Umbrella, it is normal for such a name to appear.

After all, there are Western names like "Tracer" and "Sweeper" in front of it, and so is Umbrella itself, so there is no other doubt.

And when various science popularizations and explanations about Nantianmen appeared, it was discovered that the arrangement of the name was quite in place!

gate to heaven

indeed so!

From now on, the space elevator will be the bridgehead for space exploration!

The construction speed of the first phase of the space elevator's synchronous orbit was completely beyond expectations.

Although it has been shown from all aspects that when the gravity-free environment is relatively static, the splicing is very fast as long as it is delivered in place.

The mass projector does not live up to expectations, and Umbrella's own module storage is sufficient.

but……

The most powerful orbital building in the history of human aviation was completed in such a short period of time, which still makes many people feel like they are dreaming.

"Nantianmen... is really a bunker!"

"Twenty thousand satellites were an exaggeration enough at the beginning, but this time this thing makes people feel like they have traveled through time."

"You remind me of Shuma. When Umbrella was founded, he was injured and fell into a coma. When he woke up, the style of the world changed suddenly, including holograms, VR, space, zombies, and the abyss. Then he began to doubt life."

"Haha, but he is lucky. He has a wife who loves him and has started receiving treatment. He has also registered a new account in "Star World". Even if his skill level has not kept up, he is still an absolute ace.

In the video of that fleet battle, he transformed into a Gundam and rushed into the fleet, killing seven in and seven out."

"Good guy, after you reminded me like this, I remembered that "Star World" is not a purely competitive game..."

"I'm thinking about when I can start grabbing travel quotas. I don't want to settle down."

"Wait until the connection is completed..."

"..."

Amidst the many sounds, Umbrella's space elevator 'pendulum' was still moving steadily towards the earth, and the 'rope' pulled out from behind continued to lengthen.

At the same time, Umbrella's official website also switched to a live broadcast view of the "pendulum" descending, and began to introduce the connection materials in detail.

"The new carbon fiber material we have developed is a perfect material that is currently combined with magic. All parameters are almost perfect, and even if there is damage, it can be repaired directly with repair fluid."

On one side is the perspective of the pendulum, and on the other side are the structural diagram and repair diagram of the connecting cable.

"After the connection is completed, the middle one of the five connecting cables will be continuously arranged with some maintenance robots to perform patrols and maintenance. At the same time, it will ensure that the connecting cable does not suffer other accidental damage. If one of the cables breaks, it can be safely repaired.

Let the maintenance orbit robot pull up another one."

Then there is the conceptual diagram of the connection between Penglai and Nantianmen.

"The other four connecting cables will become the support for the two space elevators, while transporting materials and tools back and forth."

In the concept map, the structural diagram of two large "transportation freight elevators" also appears.

The connecting cables pass through the middle of the cargo box. The cargo box climbs directly on the straight high-strength cables, and each cargo elevator relies on two connecting cables to complete the foundation fixation.

In addition to fixing the connecting cables that pass through the freight elevator, eight ropes are pulled out from the cargo box and connected to the two connecting cables like the suspension bridge to ensure the stability of the freight elevator.

It consumes pure electric energy and can also control the output power and lifting speed.

When the specifications and concept drawings of the elevator cargo box appeared, many people who had been staring at it exclaimed.

“So big”

""

"Damn it, the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier is only over 300 meters long and less than 100 meters wide."

"If you calculate three meters per floor, then the meter must be as high as the floor!"

"Every time I run a 100-meter track, I feel like I'm going to kill someone."

"I took a look at the starship plan parameters of SX Company. The starship is about one meter high and nine meters in diameter. If it is placed diagonally, it can be put directly in without dismantling it, and it can also be stacked."

"Fuck!"

"This is the carrying capacity..."

"Even the mass projector is my younger brother..."

"I didn't feel it in the picture, but I didn't expect it to be such a wide distance."

"..."

As you can see from the concept drawing, the pendulum will eventually be completely connected to the platform with the core of the penglai 'in' shape with the connecting line!

Utilizes space to the extreme.

Then there were popular science anchors.

"Actually, you have paid less attention to one thing, which is that another advantage of the space elevator compared to the mass projector is that it can also carry people, and it can carry some more sophisticated equipment to space by adjusting the acceleration.

"The resistance of the air is that the faster the speed, the greater the resistance, so the mass projector itself wastes a lot of energy. When Umbrella has enough energy output to support the launch of the mass projector, the operation of the space elevator is naturally no problem.

In terms of frequency, I'm afraid it can continue to maintain the transport state. Relatively speaking, the need for power to climb the track is much lower than that of the mass projector.

"However, it should be noted that the center of Nantianmen itself must be stable near the synchronous orbit. If the mass of the transported goods is too heavy, the speed will also be reduced, and Nantianmen itself may also need to be adjusted to move upward..."

Various sounds, various exclamations.

Obviously the 'pendulum' has just reached the edge of the atmosphere, but many people have already begun to imagine the future online.

"But is it safe to put the track here? Will a plane accidentally hit it?"

"No civil aviation passes here, and didn't Umbrella say that there will be maintenance robots on the middle one, and it may also carry a weapons system, which is above Peng Lai's head..."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "But satellites can't help it. Because the height and calculation formula of the synchronous orbit are relatively stationary relative to the ground base, satellites in low-Earth orbit are in order to ensure that they do not fall.

Come down and circle the earth more than ten times every day."

"Yes, despite the fact that Nantianmen itself is relatively stationary, and the modules seemed to be motionless during construction, they also have a speed of kilometers per second and are synchronized with the earth's rotation. Low-Earth orbit satellites usually have kilometers per second.

"

"If there was a collision, the speed and destruction would be simply terrifying."

"..."

When the topic turned to track safety, many people calmed down.

In fact, this topic has been mentioned in the past few days, but it was not 'released' at that time, but now it is before our eyes.

However, Umbrella’s official website also responded accordingly at this time.

"Currently, our company owns the largest number of low-Earth orbit satellites. After our long-term calculations, we have found that there are currently no satellite orbits operating at the connection location. In fact, the spatial location of low-Earth orbit is quite vast. Our company's elevator track is inconspicuous.

The probability is extremely low..."

At this time, a group of people in a satellite control tower also saw Umbrella's announcement.

Many people also had subtle smiles on their faces.

"Yes, the probability of collision is extremely low."

"But after special calculations, an uncontrolled scrapped satellite accidentally collided with it. We can't be blamed for that."

“Everyone has the right to use the space environment!”

"The technical difficulty of making the satellite hit the connecting cable is still very high."

"Thanks to their communication technology between satellites, the probability has increased a lot."

"let's start……"

With the control of this satellite console and after rigorous calculations, several satellites in space that are about to be scrapped slightly changed their orbits and began to adjust continuously!

Collision is difficult, but it doesn't matter. A satellite can make more than ten rounds every day, and each round is adjusted according to the error. Sooner or later, it will be able to collide...

Chapter 668

Umbrella has 20,000 satellites in the sky, and its monitoring capabilities are naturally strong enough.

It may not be possible to find out immediately in the short term.

But when the first satellite quickly passed through the orbital area and passed more than 30 kilometers away, it immediately captured the trace.

Then Umbrella officially issued another announcement

"It was previously discovered that two beautiful weather satellites and a mineral satellite have deviated from the orbit and passed the orbital area at the closest distance of kilometers. Is this an intentional act on your part?"

Directly slap her in the pretty face!

This caused the public opinion that had been at the forefront to explode instantly.

“I just said there might be a problem before, but it happened right away.”

"No, this is beautiful on purpose."
