    "I have been herding sheep for you for a few days. You have rested when you need to, and you have taken a break when you need to pick up girls. You have solved the problem of the lower body. Now you have to solve the problem of the upper body" Budi has a different relationship with everyone.  , there is no need to hide it like Colonel Zheng, it says whatever it wants, but its words always make the brothers roll their eyes.

    There are many documents, but the classification is very detailed, but most of the information revolves around one core that is eye-catching: the Ka-type powered assault ship!

    The click-type powered assault ship has been introduced before, and it is Budi¡¯s most beloved collectible, the Beauty. Its characteristic is that it is fast in power, simple to produce, and powerful, but its shortcomings are also quite obvious: energy consumption and super high cost!  However, when Duan Guoyu made the decision to launch imitation, he did not pay much attention to the issue of energy consumption costs, because for men in black like himself and the entire Blue Star, the first thing to solve now is the issue of whether or not, which is like dog-skin plaster.  It's ugly, doesn't work, and smells bad, but when there is no other better plaster to use, this one that can pull out pus is a good medicine!

    There are not many insurmountable technical obstacles to imitating the production of snap-type power reactors, and it is not impossible to achieve it based on Blue Star's technological level. Only the production intensity of parts needs to be strictly controlled. For this technology  Everyone is still confident about the finished product with lower requirements.  As for the large amount of fuel it uses, given the non-picky appetite of the Ka-type power reactor, many fuels can be used. If the flower growers can be brought in, and a country is used as the fuel processing background, it will naturally be better.  It couldn't be better, so Duan Guoyu and the flower growers have a new cooperation agreement, which is a new cooperation project in fuel processing and production.

    Flower growers are interested in any advanced technology and have special preferences.  Naturally, they will not let go of such a technical project, of course based on their ideas.  Not only fuel, they also hope to obtain a complete set of production technology including engines and assault ships.  However, the brothers will not hand over the most critical power reactor technology to flower growers.  At least leave it to the other party when your family and your own safety are not guaranteed.  The biggest card everyone has now is that they can leave Blue Star at any time and threaten the entire Blue Star. And if the opponent has enough spaceships to no longer be threatened by this Unless a few people have no use value, they must  Otherwise, the fate of the brothers will be tragic.

    Flower growers also understand this truth, so they do not dare to aggressively ask others to come up with the core power production technology. They just adopt such a cooperative method to close the relationship with everyone while absorbing and digesting the acquired technology.  Technology Applications.  Compared with several previous large projects, this fuel production technology does not have much technical content, but Budi took into account the actual situation and characteristics of Blue Star.  We did not choose high-energy fuel technologies that were too sophisticated and inconsistent with Blue Star's overall processing capabilities. We did not consider ion particle reactor technology, which simply required a material withstand capacity of over 50,000 degrees. It was not Blue Star's current technology.  It can be done.  Moreover, it is also necessary to consider whether the resources on Blue Star are rich and easy to mine and purify. Therefore, in the end, the fuel Budi gave was a special fuel processed from seawater, which is the most abundant substance on Blue Star.

    As we all know, the ocean occupies two-thirds of the entire Blue Star. At the same time, its individual reserves are the largest amount of material on the Blue Star except for soil and rocks. For humans, the amount of seawater available is almost unlimited.  At the same time, seawater is a veritable liquid mineral deposit, with an average of 35.7 million tons of minerals per cubic kilometer of seawater.  Of the more than 100 known elements in the world, 80% can be found in seawater.

    Seawater is a very complex multi-component aqueous solution.  Various elements in seawater exist in certain physical and chemical forms.  The existence form of copper in seawater is relatively complex, and most of it exists in the form of organic complexes.  Only a small part of the free ions exist in the form of divalent positive ions, and most of them appear in the form of negative ion complexes.  So free copper ions make up only a small fraction of the total dissolved copper.  Sodium is extremely abundant in seawater, but its chemical behavior is very simple.  It exists almost entirely in the form of na+ ions.  The dissolved organic matter in seawater is very complex. It is mainly a substance called "marine humus". Its properties are similar to the humic acid and sensitive acid generated by the decomposition of vegetation in the soil.  The molecular structure of marine humus has not been fully determined.  However, it can form strong complexes with metals.

    It is precisely because of these characteristics and the almost inexhaustible characteristics that choosing seawater as the main object of fuel extraction is more in line with the current technical characteristics and consumption.  Technically.  Humans have also been conducting research and efforts on how to desalinate seawater and extract various rich mineral deposits in seawater, and have also received certain results.  However, because the technology is not yet mature, the input and output ratios are too large to be put into actual production.  Therefore, more applications can only be limited to a small number of laboratories.

    ? ?But now, fortunately, Budi, a technology bug that defies the odds, exists. In order to be able to go home early, he no longer cares about the regulations of interstellar observers. The seawater extraction fuel technology it provides is the best that Blue Star humans have at present.  The biggest advantage of mastering a new and improved version of relatively mature technology is that the technical threshold is relatively low, and it is easy to put into production quickly and mass-produce, and it can also have the advantages of desalination and purification of seawater.  The only drawback is that it consumes too much electricity. The electricity consumed by a factory that produces 100 tons of fuel per day can supply half of the electricity consumption of Magic City. This shows how terrible the consumption of electricity is.  However, due to the excessive power consumption, Budi also presented a new nuclear energy technology. This technology can be said to solve the two biggest problems in the current application of controlled nuclear energy, safety and efficiency!

    This nuclear power plant is something that humans both love and fear. I love it because its input-output ratio is really attractive. A small amount of low-concentration nuclear raw materials for civilian use can generate long-lasting and stable energy for conversion. This is for the increasingly depleted energy.  It is an excellent future direction of lightweight energy use for mankind.  But what scares humans is that the current application of nuclear energy causes too much pollution and danger. The radioactive hazards caused by the two nuclear power plant accidents in human history have not been eliminated yet, which forces humans to be more careful.  Use with caution.

    And the technology Budi gave is actually the most practical version of controlled nuclear fusion technology.  Compared with nuclear fission, the biggest feature of nuclear fusion is safety, but it is compared with the nuclear fusion technology currently mastered by mankind.  Its threshold is much lower, on the premise of lowering technical requirements and sufficient energy release.  It will not be unable to be affected and turn into a big mushroom to cause primary damage, nor will it cause secondary radiation pollution to the environment and cause long-term fatal damage. This is extremely tempting to humans.

    However, in order to give priority to the flower growers and the personal safety of the brothers, in this technical cooperation, the core facilities of the nuclear fusion reactor are in the hands of the brothers, just like the snap-type power reactor, and the flower growers are responsible for the construction of peripheral facilities  , This not only speeds up the production speed, but also ensures that the brothers avoid the fate of being unloaded and killed.

    After solving the technical problems of power reaction equipment and fuel production, the flower growers are responsible for extracting a large amount of fuel along the coast, and they also have to take advantage of their own convenience of having many large shipyards.  The spacecraft hull is produced based on the design drawings given by Budi.  This job is a large one. With the technical level of the brothers, it is possible to produce a spaceship the size of a minibus or even a bus. But if you want to produce a spacecraft over a hundred meters long this  This kind of work has far exceeded the workload of a few people. If one steel plate is really assembled and connected with one weld, even with the assistance of the automatic machinery and exoskeleton armor in the base, just one splicing work is enough to complete the work of four people.  I no longer need to think about missions

    Of course, the hull of this spaceship has also been shrunk and simplified. It uses the relatively mature technology of mankind and combines the joint technical effects produced by the steel project cooperation with flower growers some time ago.  Five types of spaceships are custom-designed.

    The first type of spacecraft is the smallest, with a maximum take-off total mass of 500 tons (including load capacity). Although this type of spacecraft has a length of six to seventy meters, it is better to say that it is a spaceship than a space speedboat.  Its function is to take advantage of its smaller size to quickly take off and quickly reach short-distance destinations.  The maximum cargo weight is only less than 100 tons, and it does not have the ability to sail long distances.  Budi named them ant-class, which means ant-like carrying capacity.  However, the word ant also represents a certain meaning, that is, it can produce quickly and in large quantities.  As long as the cockpit and working compartment are sealed and welded to a high level without causing leakage accidents, ordinary private shipyards or machinery manufacturing plants can process and produce this simple hull.

    The second type of spacecraft is named the Earth-like class.  Judging from the name level, we know that this spacecraft has a strong carrying capacity. The total mass of the ship exceeds 100,000 tons, and the length of the huge hull exceeds 260 meters.  Although this kind of spacecraft is huge, its speed is definitely as slow as an elephant, and its carrying capacity is not high, with a maximum load level of just over 10,000.  The biggest reason for this somewhat unusual large hull with small carrying capacity is that this kind of spacecraft does not use click-type power direct injection to generate reaction for lift-off or landing like the Ant-class. Its biggest feature is the use of anti-gravity technology.  To levitate the spacecraft, otherwise the thrust required for a 100,000-ton spacecraft to lift off simply by jetting would be astronomical.  And precisely because of this, more than half of the space on the spacecraft is equipped with giant anti-gravity equipment. This set of giant anti-gravity equipment, which Budi said is the most basic and lowest threshold, can only produce a gravity levitation of one hundred thousand tons.  Strength.

    Unlike the previous core technologies that are in the hands of brothers, this technology is directlyIt was handed over to flower growers. It¡¯s not that the brothers don¡¯t want to master this core technology to make money. The key is that this thing is too big and involves too many fields. It can be controlled by just a few people or a few small factories.  It is difficult to produce this thing, and there is not much room for upgrading this type of anti-gravity equipment, so everyone directly hands over this technology to flower growers.

    Although the Earth-class carrier spacecraft has a load capacity of just over 10,000 tons, it is already of epoch-making significance for humans. The load capacity of 10,000 tons is enough for humans to carry out entry-level interstellar transportation and journeys, but it  The biggest role is not to carry out special long-distance navigation, because its design concept and purpose is to carry ore, personnel, materials and equipment to and from the space station and the surface of the planet. Interstellar navigation is a special shuttle vehicle sent from the space station.  Completed.

    The third type of spaceship is said to be a spaceship but it is actually an interstellar space station.  Budi is based on the current level of science and technology of mankind.  Considering that anti-gravity technology is still relatively advanced and difficult for humans to master quickly, an Earth-class spacecraft was designed to carry media to and from the planet's surface and the universe.  It also gives the interstellar space station more functions.  After the Earth-class spacecraft transports a large amount of materials, mineral deposits, personnel and equipment to space, humans can directly conduct large-scale transfers on the space station.  Due to the gravity-free nature of the universe, the carrying capacity of its cargo spacecraft can be infinitely improved. In theory, as long as there is sufficient propulsion, a planet can be transported as cargo over a long distance.

    Therefore, in addition to the role of cargo transfer and warehousing, the interstellar space station also has a function of becoming a transfer terminal. For example, after two large space stations are established in the outer orbits of Mars and Blue Star, the Earth-class spacecraft will continuously transport cargo to the space station.  , and then load it into a larger spaceship parked at the space station, and these specialized spaceships complete the long-distance flight between the universe and transport it to the next space station.  From there, it will be transported back to the planet's surface by the planet's elephant-class spacecraft.  Such a process may seem cumbersome, but the biggest benefit is to maximize the use of carrying capacity and reduce flight time costs.

    Therefore, this kind of interstellar space station is quite large. The diameter of the smallest interstellar space station can reach more than five thousand meters. In addition to having a long trestle similar to a dock, the interstellar space station also needs to have spacecraft assembly, production and maintenance capabilities to facilitate travel between various places.  The spacecraft is maintained and repaired here.

    The seemingly complicated transportation method is actually a technical problem. Before anti-gravity technology is fully digested and miniaturized by humans, such transportation must be maintained for a long time.

    Since there is no need to travel to and from the earth's surface and no anti-gravity equipment is required, the fourth type of flying elephant-class spacecraft specially used for flying between spaces can free up a lot of space to load various materials and personnel.  From the name, this flying elephant can be seen that it is a spacecraft specially used for space flight. However, it does not have as many restrictions as the ground elephant class in terms of size. It can be adjusted according to different needs of flight speed and cargo loading.  Those who want to fly faster will naturally have more thrust equipment and bigger ones, while those who don't need to fly slowly and can fly slowly will need smaller thrust equipment and less.

    However, strictly speaking, this fourth type of spacecraft cannot be simply classified as a flying elephant class.  The technical drawings given by Budi are a cylinder-like modular combination technology. After humans gradually understand this technology, they can infinitely expand the size of the spacecraft to accommodate more than 100,000 people.  It is not impossible for a foreign fortress with a volume of more than hundreds of kilometers to enter the era of planetary colonization.  But according to Budi's estimation, when humans can complete the construction and production of such a giant spacecraft.  It would be extremely difficult to achieve without three or forty years of hard work, and by then the brothers will no longer be threatened by various governments that may still exist

    The first four types of spaceships each have their own uses.  However, judging from the direction and purpose of use, these spacecraft are mainly used for production and construction, personnel and material transportation, and are classified as civilian spacecraft.  And the biggest difference between this fifth type of spaceship and the other types of spaceships is its use. Its greatest use is not for cargo, but as a battleship for combat!

    In human scientific and technological civilization, the vast majority of scientific and technological research is first applied in the military field. Although the two human world wars and the subsequent Cold War consumed a lot of manpower and material resources, they promoted the rapid advancement of human science and technology.  , at this point, Budi said that this is true no matter which interstellar civilization race it is.  Now that humans have been given the steps to enter interstellar and offshore exploration, there is no point in hiding it anymore.

    However, compared with civilian spacecraft, the production of this warship is naturally much more difficult than civilian spacecraft. Not only does the hull strength have to withstand various tests, but also the battle damage in future interstellar wars must be taken into consideration.  , so redundant equipment and multi-loop equipment account forIt occupies most of the available space in the hull.  Just like a human warship, it doesn't matter if a cabin is damaged, but the key is to be able to close the cabin in time, and personnel, equipment and materials can be quickly passed through and transferred through other channels, while trying not to affect the combat capability of the entire warship.

    And considering the current actual technological level of Blue Star humans, Budi also has to consider what kind of weapons and equipment to install on these battleships. This is too advanced energy weapon that humans know how to use but cannot produce. In terms of defense, what kind of energy  Barrier-type click-type power is not suitable for such energy conversion output, so Budis thought about it and finally decided to give humans all the imitation drawings of click-type powered assault ships!  !
