Cao Chuan sent the drawings to the spacecraft team.
After seeing the drawings, the employees of the spacecraft team read it carefully and wanted to understand the design concept.
On the other hand, the second-generation spacecraft entered the research and development stage.
The research and development stage is not yet the mass production stage.
Even so, the cost is still staggering.
According to the estimate given by Cao Chuan, Dongyinhe's current gd can support up to four Changyang-class ships or half a Yuanyang-class ship.
This is still the second year of the development of Jupiter.
The initial investment has just been recovered through the established asteroid belt trade route, with the help of seafood and energy exports.
As for the "enfeoffment" matter, due to internal conflicts, Cao Chuan did not If you dare to make too big a fuss, you won't gain much in return.
Their economy is still in a period of savings.
Logically speaking, they should not invest so much energy in completing the second-generation spaceship.
As a space-based force, coupled with the great efforts of all employees, or to be precise, the full-time employees Support, the two prototype ships are under construction with difficulty.
Half a year later, in April 2033, the first Changyang-class spacecraft was completed.
Cao Chuan took the employees of the combat department and several company ministers into the majestic ship like a city fortress, and entered the captain's cabin through the long corridor. .
Bai Lian had just become familiar with the operation of the spaceship and showed everyone the controls of the new spacecraft.
The three major departments including the trade department, exploration department, and combat department watched eagerly, wondering when they would be able to get their second generation. spaceship.
According to estimates from the trade department, after the second-generation spacecraft becomes popular, the transportation cost of space will plummet by 50%.
The load of one of their spaceships is equivalent to the load of 10 ordinary large spaceships, which means that East Galaxy Company can easily rely on trade.
Use technology to crush the enemy and quickly annex the sphere of influence of gsag and others.
As for the exploration department, their plans are relatively simple.
First, after getting the spacecraft, they have to go to Uranus, Neptune, the Kuiper Belt and even Pluto to explore, each time for half a year, because the design speed of the Changyang class reaches 120,000 kilometers per second, and the journey is actually Very short-lived, They could happily spend months conducting in-depth investigations, launching large numbers of satellites, even setting up multiple temporary camps, and even traveling to affiliated satellites of these planets.
What makes them tangled is what to do with the Oort Cloud later, which is a little far away.
Even if they can accept the journey that lasts for several years or more than ten years, and even have the support of human freezing technology, it will be troublesome no matter how they look at it. matter.
Why is the Oort Cloud so far away?
They thought depressingly that the distance from the Earth to Pluto is only 35 astronomical units, but the shortest distance from the Earth to the Oort Cloud is 50,000 astronomical units.
Of course, Cao Chuan has considered these issues.
It is indeed a troublesome thing.
The problem, however, is that it is a step they must take on the road to conquering the stars and the sea.
"Mr.
Consultant, the construction of the Yuanyang class will take a lot of time, so let us first experience the speed and convenience of traveling to Pluto," the leader of the spacecraft team responsible for supervising the construction, Shimazu, introduced warmly.
The spacecraft is launched.
Since there are still old prototype ships and prototype ships 2 on the Jupiter Atmosphere Laboratory, there is no need to worry about the research work not being able to continue.
Besides, how can we prove that the spacecraft technology is mature without actual navigation?
Even if their physical fitness is strengthened, the acceleration limit that humans can withstand has not changed much.
It still remains at 10g.
The acceleration lasts for nearly 20 hours before the speed is increased to 6,000 kilometers per second.
"Everyone, at this speed, the navigation of the spacecraft is already quite stable," Team Leader Shimazu boasted proudly.
"Think about it, this initial speed alone is 6 times that of Queen Nana, and it only takes half a month to go to Pluto. time."
"I remember that the Changyang-class's ultimate speed is 120,000 kilometers per second.
Why not increase the speed to the limit?"
Qiao Yunhe asked curiously.
"This is for safety reasons.
If something happens to the spacecraft, it will take several months for other spacecraft to come to the rescue.
I think maintaining a speed of 6,000 kilometers per second is enough."
"Yeah."

The calm Wang Xian accepted his explanation and wandered around the spaceship.
Qiao Yunhe was dissatisfied and wanted to experience what it would be like to go to Pluto in the next week.
However, when he saw a group of people around him looking at him as if he were in danger, only Xiao Guanhai looked at him with encouraging eyes, so he gave up. .
Team Leader Shimazu breathed a sigh of relief: "Now, there is still half a month until our destination of Pluto.
You can move around freely."
After saying that, the remaining employees dispersed, leaving Team Leader Shimazu to go to In front of Cao Chuan, "Mr.
Consultant, are you satisfied with the new spaceship?"
Cao Chuan praised, "The new spacecraft looks very successful, but the project is not over yet.
I would like to trouble you to do your best to complete the construction of the prototype of the second Yuanyang-class spacecraft.
Only then can we put it into mass production and design more improved models." ” "The spaceship team of the research department is guaranteed to complete the mission," Team Leader Shimazu assured, patting his chest.
The reason why he was confident was that almost 50% of the remaining strong bones had been eliminated.
So far, the completion degree of the Changyang-class spacecraft they took has exceeded 80%.
In addition, You can achieve your goal with just a little effort.
"Very well, the board of directors will see your outstanding performance.
Do you have any other requests?
Please don't worry.
I will consider them."
Leader Shimazu thought about it.
Assuming that his spaceship team has conquered the second-generation spacecraft, the next project will undoubtedly be the research on reactor miniaturization.
It will be done together with the basic science team.
By then, the moon-class spacecraft will be equipped with fusion The energy reactor will generate another series of solar-class spacecraft, so there is no need to ask Mr.
Advisor for help.
What else is there?
Team leader Shimazu is a typical mad scientist.
He does not consider personal interests at all, and is more eager for unknown knowledge.
"Mr.
Consultant, what do you think the third generation spaceship should look like?"
"Third generation" Cao Chuan was stunned.
In fact, he had no rules in his mind to simulate it.
At most, it was just nonsense.
"The third generation spacecraft is not a field that we should touch.
It includes fully mature molecular materials.
It is completely Solving the acceleration problem, light-year-level detection technology, and reaching the 1-kilometer spacecraft scale are the most important.
I think you should have seen the most difficult step in space navigation so far. " "Is it a problem of crossing between stars?"
Team leader Shimazu asked softly after realizing what Caochuan was talking about.
"Yes, the distance between star systems is usually between 05 and 10 light-years.
At the speed of the second-generation spacecraft, it can be said to be very easy to cross the planet.
If you want to cross the star, you still have to calculate it in years.
Therefore, if we talk about the third-generation spacecraft, The advent of the spaceship is bound to completely solve this problem.”
"There are several solutions.
The first one is to continue to increase the speed, and increase the speed of the spacecraft to sublight speed, which is 100,000 to 250,000 kilometers per second; the other is to try to find the Einstein Rosen Bridge.
Of course, the entire galaxy exists I’m afraid this kind of space structure will not exceed 3 digits, and it may not be near us; there is another way, I’m afraid we have to go in the direction of basic physics and try to find the transition technology.”
Caochuan was talking nonsense, but from the sound of Team Leader Shimazu, this simply set out their work goals for the next 100 years.
If they follow this path, they can achieve their final goal
