Chapter 473: "Running to the Moon" and "East Wind"


The giant mushroom was grown in China.

In the following months, a total of three were tested.

Two were exploded in the Taklimakan Desert, one was a ground explosion, one was an air explosion, and the last one was conducted in the Zhulong Islands in the Arctic Circle.

Underwater explosion.

The smallest equivalent is 1 million tons, and the largest is 5 million tons.

It's not that it can't be done bigger, it's mainly because it's unnecessary.

There are future quantum computers called "Xiao Fei Fei".

As long as specific data of several equivalents are obtained, the explosion results can be simulated on the computer.

Besides, bigger is not always better for things like mushrooms, and the power must be appropriate.

What President Wen wants is not wasteland, nor does he want to cause terrain rupture and other geological disasters to the new site, otherwise it will be a trap for himself.

Of course, the super giant mushroom will definitely make a few spare ones.

Nowadays, a 3,000-ton tactical atomic bomb in China costs about 150,000 yuan, which is equivalent to five J-5 "Jaeger" fighter jets.

A 100,000-ton strategic atomic bomb costs 900,000 yuan.

The big mushroom hydrogen bomb is too expensive.

This time The average cost of the three test bombs was 5.5 million yuan.

It is expected that after miniaturization, it can be reduced to less than 1 million, and even to 500,000 if it is a tactical grade.

This is only the cost, not including research costs and related peripheral investments.

Since then, relevant Chinese departments have been working on miniaturization and tactical models of hydrogen bombs, as well as related research on third-generation clean nuclear bombs.

The main reason for developing third-generation nuclear weapons is because they are environmentally friendly and easy to use.

Because this kind of thing has no long-term side effects such as pollution, there is almost no radiation residue, and the decay period is very fast, dissipating in a few months at most, so it can be used as a conventional weapon.

There are mushrooms in China now, but this is not the end yet.

Just having bullets is not enough, you also need a gun that can shoot out the bullets.

Only when the guns and bullets are ready can you become a big killer.

With Mr.

Wen's knowledge, it is certainly impossible to miss the "gun".

Before the "bullet" is completed, the "gun" has already been completed.

This "gun" plan has a very romantic and lofty name "Plan to the Moon", and yes, it is a rocket.

At present, the problem of China using aerial bombs and torpedoes as nuclear weapons vehicles has been solved, but both vehicles have great limitations.

Needless to say, torpedoes can only deal with targets in the sea.

Although the range of aerial bombs is larger, bomber penetration has always been a big problem.

Without absolute air superiority, there is no way to ensure that bombers can successfully reach the target.

It's okay for bombers to bully small countries with weak air power.

If the opponent is replaced by a top power, the success rate of air-dropped nuclear bombs will be more mysterious.

No country that can become a top power is vegetarian.

Although Mr.

Wen is very confident in his air force technology, he cannot guarantee that it will be 100% problem-free.

Therefore, the best vehicle for nuclear bombs is rockets.

This is the experience gained by the gangsters of later generations of the original time and space through decades of practice and countless manpower and material resources.

The "Moon Flight Project" specializes in the study of launch vehicles.

The plan is mainly divided into two project teams.

One is the civilian version of the "Chang'e" project team.

They are engaged in orthodox launch vehicles.

The other is the military's "Dongfeng" project team, which is responsible for ballistic missiles.

The "Chang'e" project team is semi-public.

Their banner is: "Let humans conquer space, land on the moon, and reach Mars."

In recent years, some relevant papers have been published internationally, and some experts interested in this have been attracted to come to China.

For example, Robert Goddard from the United States was seduced.

In the history of the original time and space, this man was the earliest rocket engine inventor in the United States and was recognized as the father of modern rocket technology.

He began theoretical research on rocket dynamics in 1909.

Three years later, he ignited a solid-fuel rocket placed in a vacuum glass container, proving that the rocket could work in a vacuum.

However, this guy is very unsuccessful in the United States.

The government does not understand this, and the consortium also thinks that there is something wrong with his brain.

Goddard's research does not get any support, and there is an extreme lack of funds.

It takes several years to accumulate money to fly a rocket. .

And the critical public opinion circles did not let him go.

Reporters from the New York Times mocked him for not even understanding basic high school physics and fantasizing about traveling to the moon.

They gave Goddard the nickname "Moon Man."

The public also expressed doubts and incomprehension about the scientist's work, but this could not shake the tenacious Goddard.

Of course, the history of this plane is no longer the same.

In May 1916, Goddard, who was worrying about research funds, encountered a turning point in his life.

He received an invitation from China.

The visitor didn't say much, but just showed him some information and photos about Chinese rockets.

Goddard was shocked by the information.

He never thought that China's rocket technology was so mature, and there were many more.

It was something he had never thought of before.

Then someone came and invited him to work at China's Rocket Research Institute and guaranteed his research funding.

What else is there to say?

Robert Goddard ran away to China with his wife and children without saying a word.

This incident has also become a joke for some American media.

They claim that the Chinese have read too much ancient mythology, so they were fooled by Goddard's sleep talk and even landed on the moon, just like a bird.

Some media claimed that Goddard finally deceived a wealthy businessman who was willing to pay, and he was really lucky.

After Goddard arrived in China, Wen Desi offered him very generous terms, but there was a clause in the contract: "After Mr.

Goddard has worked in China for three years, he must decide whether to renounce his American citizenship and become a Chinese citizen.

If so, the employment will be renewed, otherwise the employment will be terminated.

"Of course, this is just a formality.

Once these people arrive in China, they should not run away.

Mr.

Wen has many ways to make them stay.

Wen Desi has always regarded views such as "scientific internationalization" as bullshit.

If a large amount of money and time are invested in these foreign experts, and they go back at that time, the losses will be huge.

Not to mention, they will definitely know more or less secrets from their work in China that Mr.

Wen does not want to reveal.

Goddard basically didn't think much about it.

He thought it would be okay to work in China for three years first, and then decide whether to stay and see.

As a result, he lived a comfortable life within three years.

With sufficient funds, he continued to conduct tests and launched an average of one rocket per season.

He launched a total of 12 rockets, each one bigger than the other, flying higher one by one, and even from China has learned various new rocket concepts here, such as multi-stage rockets, which he himself proposed in 1929, and concepts such as bundled engines.

After working in China for three years, he learned about China's "Moon Flight Plan" and felt extremely excited.

This coincided with his childhood dream of "flying to space."

After further discussions with some foreign colleagues, he believed that there would be no better development after returning to the United States.

At the same time, three years of personal experience made him believe that China's research environment is no worse than that of the United States, or even better.

The government supports it, and no media will laugh at it.

He felt the kindness of the crowd rather than the arrogance of the media.

So he and his wife and children signed to become Chinese nationals and stayed in China to take root.

After becoming a Chinese national, Goddard also gave himself a Chinese name, with the surname Gao, Dade, and Bert.

He joined the Scientific Socialist Party of China the year before last and became an honorable party member.

Of course, Comrade Gao Dade is conducting purely scientific space rocket research, that is, the "Chang'e" project team.

He will not touch military rockets.

Their only mission is to study how to launch rockets into space, and if possible, send people into space, or even to the moon.

However, even the scientific space rocket program also has great military applications, but Gao Dade does not know it yet.

There are many foreign experts in a similar situation to Comrade Gao Dade.

All foreign experts that China considers valuable have chosen to become Chinese nationals and become glorious Chinese citizens.

For example, Tesla took the initiative to apply for Chinese citizenship even three years ago.

Of course, in addition to generous treatment and working environment, there are also various unknowing and subtle brainwashing methods.

Biochips are not only used on criminals and those "unstable factors".

Without relying solely on external factors, the success rate would not be as high as it is now.

On July 16, 1916, China launched the first artificial earth satellite "Taibai 1", which was a low-orbit military reconnaissance satellite operating in a low-Earth orbit of 180 kilometers.

In the following years, dozens of satellites were launched one after another, from a few military reconnaissance satellites and scientific exploration satellites to later return test satellites, meteorological satellites, communication satellites, etc.

By last year, China’s latest launch vehicle, Shenglong 1, could reach synchronous orbit.

On March 7 this year, China launched its first geosynchronous satellite, which is a synchronous communication satellite weighing 3 tons. .

Within the next month, two more identical geostationary communications satellites were launched.

The three satellites are all located in a synchronous orbit of 36,000 kilometers, evenly distributed 120° apart.

After they are debugged and connected to the Internet, the straight-line radio waves of the satellites will be able to cover most of the inhabited areas of the world, except for the two poles.

By May 1, China's global communications network was officially established.

On May 12 this year, people from the "Chang'e" project team even launched a test spacecraft.

But there was no one sitting inside, but a little monkey, a specialty of Mount Emei.

After the little monkey returned safely, the "Chang'e" project team was overjoyed, and they were excitedly preparing to carry out the first manned space mission in December this year.

In the Rocket Research Institute, a group of experts were discussing manned spaceflight.

"This is an epoch-making thing.

It is the first step for mankind to conquer space.

Why does Mr.

Wen disagree?"

Comrade Gao Dade said excitedly.

He is now the deputy leader of the "Chang'e" project team.

Team leader Yao Chang also had a look of regret, spreading his hands and said: "Mr.

Wen doesn't disagree, he means that the technology of spacecraft is not mature yet, and it is too dangerous to use people to conduct experiments now.

He said, wait for our rocket Only when the technology and spacecraft technology are more mature can we consider conducting manned experiments.”

"Indeed, we have just put a monkey up now, and the data collection is not complete yet.

Mr.

Wen's consideration is also right."

Another expert nodded and said: "We'd better do a few more experiments to achieve Only when everything is absolutely certain can we consider officially launching manned spaceflight.”

Comrade Gao Dade was still unwilling to give up and said: "But, team leader, our Shenglong 1 can already send a 12-ton payload to low orbit.

There is no problem in getting a spacecraft to go up there."

Yao Chang shook his head and said: "President Wen said, our moon flight plan is a very large project that involves all aspects.

Going to space and the moon is not just about designing and launching rockets, but also needs to consider many aspects.

For example, how to fly in space and Navigation, how to rendezvous spaceships, how to remotely control ultra-long-distance spaceships, how humans survive in a vacuum environment, how to move around in weightlessness, methods of lunar exploration, and other issues."

"Well, these really should be solved first."

Gao Dade was convinced.

These problems are the key.

However, these things are only part of the reasons, and Mr.

Wen has more to consider.

Manned aviation is great, and its research will be of great use in the future, but there is no economic benefit in the short term.

Therefore, it must be carried out, but the current focus of the space industry should be on the design and launch of satellites.

In addition, Mr.

Wen had mature aerospace data in his hands.

He had never thought of starting from a small spaceship and then proceeding to hand-made tests one by one.

What he prepared was to get it right in one step and build a large spacecraft with complete design from the very beginning.

Lanzhou, 3303 Ballistic Missile Research Institute, "Dongfeng" project team.

While the experts of the "Chang'e" project team were still regretting the delay of manned spaceflight, the people of the "Dongfeng" project team were celebrating their victory.

"Mr.

Wen, all tests of Dongfeng III have been completed.

As of last month, 15 launch experiments have been carried out, all of which were successful.

After discussion, our project team believes that it can be finalized and produced."

Director Wen Kaixiang came over.

Wen Desi Hui reported on the inspection.

"What is the range and payload and what is the accuracy?"

Wen Desi asked.

Wen Kai replied: "The maximum range is 5,500 kilometers.

It can carry a 2,500 kilogram warhead or three sub-missile warheads with a hit accuracy of 1,000 meters.

According to the data provided by nuclear weapons, a 2,500 kilogram payload can carry a 3,005-million-ton warhead."

Thermonuclear warhead, or three thermonuclear warheads of less than 500,000 tons.” "5500 kilometers."

Wen Desi nodded and did not speak immediately.

Instead, he looked at the globe next to him.

Xin Jie, the chief of general staff who accompanied him, immediately understood what he meant and said from the side: "Mr.

Wen, 5,500 kilometers is enough.

If we launch from the Zhulong Islands, the New Siberian Islands or the Ice and Fire Peninsula, the Kamchatka Peninsula, we can cover If it is launched next to the Caspian Sea, it can cover most of the continental United States."

"Well, then it can be finalized," Wen Desi said to the experts with a smile.

"Oh" everyone cheered immediately.

When everyone calmed down, Wen Desi continued: "But the Dongfeng Type 3 is just the beginning, it is not enough.

I hope you will continue your efforts and research missiles that can hit farther, have a larger payload, and have higher accuracy."

"Yes, Mr.

Wen, our next step is to prepare to study the Dongfeng Type 4 with a range of 8,000 kilometers."

Compared with the "Chang'e" project team, the "Dongfeng" project team is making faster progress.

After all, their stuff is much simpler.

So far, two missiles have been officially finalized, mass produced and installed in the army.

That is, Dongfeng Type 1 and Type 2.

Dongfeng Type 1 is a process ballistic missile with a maximum range of 800 kilometers and can carry a 1,500 kilogram warhead.

Dongfeng II is a medium-range ballistic missile with a maximum range of 2,700 kilometers and can carry a 2,000 kilogram warhead.

Both missiles can already be used as carriers of nuclear bombs
