Raymond Anthony opened a document in his hand, which was sent by Galen Smith just an hour ago.
The preliminary completion of the Zeus plan made Raymond Anthony extremely excited, but the progress of the subsequent plan also made him anxious.
A year has passed since the beginning of Project Zeus.
Although the controllable thermonuclear fusion technology has been mastered and practical devices have been completed, it is still far from enough for Raymond Anthony, because the spacecraft he is most focused on The engine is still on paper.
As a successful businessman and a big figure with strong political influence, Raymond Anthony is no ordinary person.
Although he is not a professional in technology, he also knows that technological research progress cannot be successful overnight.
According to the status of the Zeus plan, if the entire plan formulated by Raymond Anthony proceeds step by step, success is inevitable, not to mention that he has already seen the dawn of success.
There is no problem in theory with the use of controllable thermonuclear fusion technology in spacecraft engines and power, but the problem is that Raymond Anthony no longer has so much time to wait.
This year he has passed 70.
As time goes by, Raymond Anthony clearly feels that his body has been declining day by day in the past few years.
Not long ago, Raymond Anthony, who was used to riding horses and trotting around the farm every day, felt that this sport he had loved since his youth was a little inadequate.
Although he refused to admit it, he knew in his heart that he was getting old.
Although the results of the doctor's examination are all good, according to his most trusted personal doctor, Raymond Anthony is healthier than ordinary people of his age, but no matter how healthy he is, he is still an old man.
The old Raymond knows very well that he There is not much time left.
He doesn't have any more time to wait patiently for that kind of step-by-step success.
Even if the original plan of Project Zeus is followed, by the time a spacecraft that can fully travel through space is built, Raymond Anthony's may have long become a handful of loess buried deep in the ground.
If this is the case, then what is the meaning of everything done?
Raymond Anthony must race against time, so he proposed to modify the Zeus plan, requiring the entire plan to be completed in the shortest time. to achieve the results he desired.
The document in front of him was a report on the revised plan.
According to Galen Smith, after many conversations with Professor Kevin Adams, Kevin Adams came up with an original idea for the new Zeus plan. , perhaps this idea is the only feasible solution at present.
With anticipation, Raymond Anthony opened the document and looked at it carefully.
After reading a few lines, his eyebrows moved slightly involuntarily.
Anyone who knows him well knows this.
This is a sign of Raymond Anthony's interest, which is enough to show that the content of this document has greatly interested him.
At the beginning of the document, Kevin Adams made it clear that it is almost impossible to complete the design of a spacecraft engine with current controllable thermonuclear fusion technology.
To use it as an engine rather than a device, the miniaturization and development of controllable thermonuclear fusion must first be solved.
Safety issues, especially the latter, occur when the spacecraft takes off for launch.
The entire engine device is affected by air pressure, gravity, friction, temperature, vibration and other aspects, without solving these key problems.
Using such an imperfect engine is almost suicidal.
This judgment is equivalent to rejecting the possibility of directly converting the device that has just been tested into a spacecraft engine.
But at the same time, Kevin Adams proposed another idea, which is to avoid the two most uncertain environmental factors during takeoff and landing, and avoid damage and changes to the engine caused by environmental changes, so as to solve the problem from another angle.
This question.
Kevin Adams's plan is more original.
He put forward two paragraphs of suggestions.
The central core part is to first build a spacecraft directly in the earth's low-Earth space orbit in the form of a space station.
This can avoid the environmental impact caused by the direct launch of the spacecraft from the earth.
In addition, when building a spacecraft in space orbit, since space is in a vacuum state, it can also ensure that the entire spacecraft shape structure is not restricted by aerodynamics.
By bypassing the various air resistance and acceleration and gravity problems faced when launching from the ground, a suitable space can also be constructed to maximize the installation of a controllable thermonuclear fusion device inside the spacecraft.
In this way, the controllable thermonuclear fusion device will only need to solve its safety problem in space, and its size will not need to be miniaturized for the time being.
As for the size of the spacecraft, it is not a problem, because when building a spacecraft in space orbit, as long as the material supply is satisfied, you can build it in a large direction, which can also reserve enough storage space for the entire spacecraft.
According to Kevin Adams's idea, the spacecraft can be loaded with at least two or more controllable thermonuclear fusion devices at the same time.
These two sets of devices can not only meet the spacecraft's flight power needs in the universe, but even serve as backup.
Power usage is no problem either.
As for the spacecraft arriving from the earth into space orbit, and the spacecraft landing on other planets after reaching the target, this is not difficult.
Since the spacecraft was built in space orbit from the beginning, it can ensure that enough space is reserved inside the spacecraft, so why can't we use a shuttle to solve the problem in the same way as an aircraft carrier?

Using the large spaceship as the mother ship and the shuttle as a take-off and landing tool can solve the most important problem.
What's more, the huge space inside the mother ship can not only store enough supplies for a long-term peaceful voyage, but also store the traditional energy used by the shuttle.
Combine the two with each other, and that's Kevin Adams' two-part piece of advice.
Looking at this thing, Raymond Anthony's eyes became brighter and brighter.
He seemed to have seen a huge spaceship being gradually built above the earth's orbit.
Its shape was like the sci-fi look in Star Wars, looking majestic.
Below the spaceship, the white space shuttle he was on took off from the ground and entered and exited it smoothly.
When he entered the mothership and closed the hatch, the controllable thermonuclear power engine of the huge spacecraft began to start, and the tail sprayed out blazing flames, and the entire ship The spacecraft accelerated to an extremely high speed in a short period of time, easily escaped the earth's gravity, and headed towards the vast space. s: Here comes the second update.
