The outside of Area 11 of the new base has been named Area 20.
In fact, this so-called Area 20 is used as a launch area.
After the Pioneer spacecraft and the huge Long March 7-A carrier rocket are completed, it is impossible to transport them to the Jiuquan launch base for launch, because not to mention China, not even the entire world can transport such a huge and heavy rocket. transport.
It is for this reason that when the new base was built, a space was reserved outside Area 11 for building launch devices.
Now, the entire launcher has begun to take shape.
The tall launcher is like a huge building.
Inside the closed launcher, the main body of the Long March 7-A launch vehicle and the Pioneer spacecraft are about to be completed.
At present, there are basically two methods for countries to launch rockets and manned spacecrafts.
One is the former Soviet Union, which is now Russia's horizontal movement and re-erector technology.
Russia has many years of experience in this technology, and it is currently only a few countries in the world that can do it.
Do it in horizontal transport and then safely erect the country.
The second method is the typical three-vertical model in the United States.
The rocket is assembled vertically in the launch site to prevent the impact of external environmental risks, such as hurricanes, and internal assembly requirements, such as cleanliness, constant temperature and humidity, etc. , and even specially built an assembly building.
After the assembly is completed, a unique crawler transport vehicle is purchased, and the assembled behemoth is carefully moved to the launch pad.
China has always followed the path of the former Soviet Union and was greatly influenced by the former Soviet Union in aerospace technology.
Therefore, for a long time, it basically adopted the former Soviet Union, including the current Russian technology of moving horizontally and then erecting after assembly.
However, this technology has extremely high safety requirements, and the rocket is damaged during movement and erection.
There are also restrictions on the length and weight of the spacecraft.
Once the limit is exceeded, this technology will be useless.
To adopt American technology, the cutting-edge technology requirements are too high, and the hardware limitations of the assembly building are also extremely stringent.
In addition, China does not have tools like American crawler transport vehicles.
More importantly, the Pioneer spacecraft, including its auxiliary power Long March 7A carrier rocket, is the longest, largest and heaviest in China's history in terms of length, diameter and weight.
Considering these reasons, Su Yichen and others repeatedly discussed various plans, and finally chose a compromise plan, which was to directly move the American three-vertical model to the launcher for construction, thereby combining the assembly building and the launcher into one First, although this will cause a waste of resources, it is the most direct from a practical point of view.
CASC lives up to its reputation.
Under the leadership of Ju Zhi, the main body of the Pioneer was smoothly assembled in the launcher assembly building.
More than 90 days later, the entire main body was assembled, and the connection between the Long March 7-A launch vehicle and the main body was also completed.
The next step is The construction of various facilities inside the Pioneer includes controllable thermonuclear fusion power engines, ecosystem installation, defense system installation, and even spacecraft control systems, etc.
"Good guy.
What a big guy."
When they learned that the main body was completed, Mr.
Tian and others came to the base from the capital to see the progress.
Accompanied by Su Yichen, they entered the enclosed launcher assembly building, stood on the ground, and looked up at the entire building with nearly 55 floors and a height of about 250 meters, as well as the completed 197-meter main body of the Pioneer.
The structure couldn't help but sigh.
"He is indeed a big guy.
Let me tell you, Lao Tian, how does Xiao Su compare with those little toothpicks you made back then?"
Lin Dong also came this time.
After several years of training, and having quit front-line work, his body Recovering well.
I usually practice calligraphy, learn painting, and sometimes do Tai Chi and so on.
My spirit is much stronger than before.
If you don't know that he still has heart problems, just from the appearance, he is almost healthier than the elderly of the same age.
Over the years, although he has launched front-line work, Lin Dong is still a consultant of the 781 Center.
As one of the founders of the 781 Center, Lin Dong also knows something about the subsequent Alpha Project, and he often takes the time to visit the 781 Center. , chat with Mr.
Tian, and learn about Su Yichen's work progress.
"Do you, an old guy, know how to speak metaphorically like you?"
Over the years, Lin Dong and Tian Lao have had a lot of contact.

What’s more, Lin Dong has always lived in the 781 Center.
The two families are still neighbors.
In addition to understanding the work situation, Lin Dong will also play a few games of chess with Tian Lao.
It seems that Mr.
Tian has no other hobbies, but he is very addicted to playing chess.
Unfortunately, he is a bad chess player.
He almost loses nine out of ten times when playing chess with Lin Dong.
Hearing Lin Dong's joke, Mr.
Tian raised his eyebrows and asked unhappily, but then he couldn't help laughing.
Lin Dong's words were not wrong.
They were in line with the Pioneer spacecraft in front of them.
For example, the satellite launches he carried out back then were basically little guys with a height of more than ten meters.
Compared with the two, aren't they just like small toothpicks?
Although the main structure of the Pioneer is completed, there is still a lot of work to do next, including the assembly of ancillary facilities and complex internal work, etc.
People are coming and going throughout the site, and various equipment is being transported up and down.
In order to avoid accidents, Su Yichen only accompanied Mr.
Tian He and Lin Dong walked around below.
After taking a quick look at the progress, Tian Lao and Lin Dong, who were still unfinished, came to his office accompanied by Su Yichen.
They sat down separately and asked with interest about the follow-up work of the entire plan.
Su Yichen had already prepared for this.
He gave a detailed report to the two of them, and after he finished speaking, he also put forward several conditions to them.
There was no problem with the previous report, but the subsequent conditions made Mr.
Tian and Lin Dong stunned.
As the two looked at each other, Mr.
Tian spoke first: "Why do you want to move artificial intelligence from the base to the Pioneer?"
Su Yichen smiled bitterly and said: "As for the use of artificial intelligence, I think you also know that the only thing that can really be called artificial intelligence is the intelligent Su Li created by Luo Yan.
From the 863 base to the new base, Su Li is the core Intelligent use has always been running well, and there has never been any problem.
As the first spacecraft with controllable thermonuclear fusion power, no one can guarantee that Pioneer will encounter any problems during space flight, let alone controllable thermonuclear fusion. application, Using it on a spacecraft and using it as a device on the ground are completely different concepts.
The technical theory is one thing, and the practice is another.
Without a reliable, powerful and fully autonomous core intelligence as an aid, it is very difficult to It is difficult to completely guarantee the safety of the spacecraft in space.
More importantly, what is the destination of the Pioneer?
After arriving at the destination, with the help of Su Li, will this also add more information to our control of the Pluto base?
Very confident." s: The third update is coming today.
