Chapter 200
After Li Qi explained the operation principle of the space elevator completely, everyone in the venue stood up.
“Wow, wow–”
The applause lasted.
This is an extremely bold breakthrough!
This is a great milestone conjecture in the history of science and the history of United Aerospace.
And Li Qi looked at the applause of the people below, with a strange feeling in his heart.
The model and idea of the space elevator were actually proposed in the 20th century in the previous life. It was the pioneer of Russian rocket science Tsiolkovsky who first proposed it. Then in 1970, it was perfected by the old American scientist Rom Pearson.
Then for decades, scientists all over the world are constantly improving this theory.
He is by no means a fantasy.
It is definitely not an unrealistic idea.
Although when Tsiolkovsky proposed it, he encountered ridicule and ridicule from scientists around the world, saying that he did not understand science at all. But with the continuous improvement of later people, everyone found the feasibility of this project, it is really feasible!
And all of this… even companies have started to do it!
This is by no means a fantasy, nor is it a fantasy.
Li Qi looked at the applause of the people below, and said in his heart that when Tsiolkovsky proposed it, the whole world was laughing at him 780.
Now, I put forward this theory again. But I will make this matter more than just a theory!
Su Mingyu looked at Li Qi admiringly and asked:
“President Li, what is your plan? When will it be implemented?”
Li Qi pondered: “The implementation will begin in two days.”
“Why is it two days later?”
What Su Mingyu wants to ask is, why is it two days later, why not a few months later? Because the theoretical foundation is not perfect…
But Li Qi replied: “Because I need to spend two days to coordinate the rocket department, the aerospace department, and the cooperation and support of various departments. This is the only thing that I can do. of.”
Everyone was surprised.
It turned out that the two days were to coordinate the relevant departments!
This means that if the relevant departments cooperate quickly, you can even start work right away?
Su Mingyu was shocked:
“Mr. Li. Do you mean that you can start the implementation right away? But the theory and drawings are still not perfect.”
Li Qi said: “I have completed all the theory and basic ideas. The drawings, after I have determined the location, I will just draw a picture.”
Su Mingyu was shocked: “This is too sloppy, right? President Li, it’s too sloppy for such a large project…”
Li Qi shook his head: “No, under the premise that the theory is feasible, all we need is to overcome the technical difficulties during implementation.”
At this time, a scientist yelled: “But what we have just discussed is the theory of space elevators. In theory, it is feasible, but in practice? Actually… this space elevator, how does the first step of this space elevator be implemented? ? We only discussed the operating principle of the space elevator, but we have no idea how to do this first step.”
Everyone suddenly woke up.
“Yes.”
“Just talking about ten thousand meters of steel cables, although it will not consume so much material. But the question is, how do you transport your ten thousand kilometers of steel cables?”
“Such a long cable, definitely can’t go down from the ground to the sky. It should be let down from the sky.”
“But the question is, how can such a long cable reach the sky?”
“The weight of ten thousand kilometers of steel cable has reached at least millions of tons. Millions of tons, how can this be sent into space?”
|”Do we need to build a launch vehicle that can withstand millions of tons of weight first? Ha ha.”
“This… isn’t this topic going back to that question? We just don’t have that advanced rocket technology. It can’t be circumvented, it can’t be circumvented.”
“If we have the ability to transport steel cables into space, it will be our space station that day.”
Everyone was speechless for a while.
After co-authoring and discussing for a long time, the topic has returned to the original point?
After discussing for a long time and enjoying the feasibility of the space elevator for a long time, in the end, it is back to the original point?
Everyone knows that space elevators are feasible. The problem is, this first step can’t be taken…
Su Mingyu had a headache: “Mr. Li, how to solve this problem? I believe that you must have a solution to this matter before you come up with it. However, the operation of this space elevator is not difficult. The problem is… how do you do? Send this Tongtiansuo up there?”
“Mr. Li, can you solve this problem?”
“Mr. Li, speak up.”
“There are many barriers in this space elevator. Can we break it?”
Li Qi smiled and looked at everyone:
“This barrier is big, but it can be broken! I need time.”
Everyone: “…”
needs time?
What this said.
Give me a hundred years, so can I!
But the question is, aren’t we just fighting for the four-year window period? Everyone needs time.
After working for a long time, came up with a tasteless idea?
Li Qi looked at everyone’s expressions and knew that they had misunderstood what he meant, and said quickly:
“No, no, I just said that it takes time, not that it takes time to think about how to get this elevator up.”
“Then you just…”
Li Qi said solemnly: “I’m just thinking about what materials we should use. I was distracted for a while. Sorry, I was thinking about material selection. So I need some time.”
Everyone was shocked!
The selection of materials is not very difficult.
The material of a steel cable through the sky, even if it is a rare alloy, China can still get it.
But what everyone is surprised is that he really has a way?
Su Mingyu especially looked at Li Qi with infinite surprise:
“Mr. Li, you, you… You mean, do we have a way to transport ten thousand kilometers of steel cables? Is this really possible?”
Li Qi nodded: “Yes, this is inevitable.”
Su Mingyu took a deep breath: “Ten thousand kilometers of steel cables, that’s at least millions of tons. How can it be carried? How much thrust and strength rockets can carry such a thing up? Is it, flying a kite?”
“The method of flying a kite is also not good. If a steel cable is hung on the base of the rocket, it will not fly at all.”
Li Qi shook his head:
“We still need a rocket as the first step…”
Seeing everyone’s expressions, Li Qi quickly said again: “But this rocket doesn’t need much carrying capacity. I think the Long March 5 will do. It’s enough. It really doesn’t work. Other series of rockets are also OK. These are not problems.”
“Then what method are we going to use?”
Li Qi smiled and said: “Using geophysics!”
While speaking, Li Qi said solemnly:
“Unlimited Matryoshka!”.
