The Start Of Technology Live Broadcast To Build Rockets

Chapter 22 – Team established

Du Xingyu used the fastest speed to form his own team, mostly experienced rocket engineers from the Rocket Research Institute.

As for nuclear power research, experts from the Nuclear Power Research and Design Institute and the Institute of Atomic Energy are needed to cooperate.

In just two weeks, the nuclear-powered rocket research project team was assembled.

The person in charge, He Jingcheng. Chief Design Engineer, Du Xingyu.

Then it was Xia Ping’s old colleague, the successful recovery of the Long March 5 Yaosi rocket, which made everyone more trusting in Du Xingyu.

It is worth mentioning that there is an intern in the team, Du Xingyu’s classmate, Xu Lianqiu.

Just like in the dream, Xu Lianqiu also joined the space agency as she wished. She voluntarily applied to join Du Xingyu’s research team, so she became an intern in the research and development team.

In addition, the core members include Tang Junwen, a nuclear power expert from China Nuclear Power Research and Design Institute, and Zhou Ziang, an atomic energy expert from China Institute of Atomic Energy. These two are academicians of the National Academy of Engineering and the National Academy of Sciences!

“Everyone, we all know each other.” He Jingcheng said at the core team meeting, “The next work requires everyone to work together and complete it together. The problem before us is a brand new one that has not been developed in the world. Rockets! There must be many difficulties, I hope everyone can work hard to overcome them!”

“Let us say a few words about our chief design engineer, Du Xingyu.”

Du Xingyu stood up and said to everyone: “Everyone, many of you are my predecessors. I am ashamed to be appointed as the chief engineer. But since I have taken up the post, I have to shoulder this burden.”

“I won’t say more nonsense, let me talk about the R&D focus of this project.”

Du Xingyu had already made simulations on the technology simulator. He invested half a million energy points and obtained some important information.

“We already have experience with rocket bodies and the like. I believe that the rocket team should have no problem developing the main body of the rocket. The most important research and development task is the nuclear-powered propulsion!”

“In nuclear pulse rockets, nuclear power rockets, nuclear ram rockets and other programs, nuclear thermal rockets are no different from our current best choice.”

“How to design a safe and efficient nuclear power thruster, what elements to use as nuclear fuel… Nuclear radiation protection design, exhaust pollution, reactor control, efficient heat exchanger design, emergency nuclear pollution treatment…”

Du Xingyu listed the key points one by one and discussed with everyone.

This meeting has been held for three days!

In addition to eating and sleeping, everyone studied and discussed in the conference room, how to solve problems, assign tasks, what possible problems… and complete design plans, and so on.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Three days later, nuclear power expert Tang Junwen said with emotion to atomic energy expert Zhou Ziang: “Before I came, I still had doubts about this young Du. The communication with him over the past three days has really refreshed me. This young man has real talents and practical skills of!”

“Yeah!” Zhou Ziang was very convinced. He said: “I thought that the plan would take at least three months or six months to come out. Who knew that the basic framework would be available in three days!”

“It feels like this kid feels like Ming Jing. The questions we thought of, he thought of, and he thought of what we didn’t, he also thought of it! What a genius!”

Not only them, but other people on the team also admired Du Xingyu’s insights and began to double their confidence in nuclear-powered rockets.

In Du Xingyu’s chief engineer’s office, he is planning a follow-up research and development plan for nuclear-powered rockets.

“Five months, preferably within five months, test-fire a nuclear-powered rocket.” Du Xingyu was very anxious. The asteroid that destroyed mankind in his dream, like the sword of Dakmus, has been hanging on his Overhead.

“The rocket body is not a problem, the most difficult is the nuclear-powered rocket thruster and nuclear radiation protection and safety…”

Du Xingyu turned on the science and technology simulator, and it showed: 23% of the research progress of “Nuclear Thermal Power Rocket”.

Under the research drawings, there are parts design. Now Du Xingyu has lit the main structure of the rocket, but it is still gray and white on the nuclear thermal thruster.

“The current energy point is 1.89 million.”

“Put in 10 energy points for scientific and technological simulation! Specify nuclear radiation protection materials.” Du Xingyu took the energy points earned from the last live broadcast and news interviews and started the scientific and technological simulation.

In his mind, a piece of void space appeared, and the light spots were combined to form a high-tech laboratory, and there were figures that resembled him, in which various experiments and attempts were being done.

In the process of simulating technology, the technology simulator is based on Du Xingyu’s own experiments. Those information and processes will be imprinted in his mind.

This is also the reason why Du Xingyu can convince those experts and scholars. In the past few months, he has grown too much, and the knowledge in his mind is not inferior to any top scholar!

“The test failed.” Du Xingyu’s first attempt failed.

Nuclear radiation shields are absolutely necessary to build nuclear power generators in rockets, otherwise they would not dare to install them even if they have nuclear power engines. Nuclear radiation will affect the internal electronic structure of the rocket, as well as the transported satellites, and even the astronauts!

“Put in 100,000 points of energy and start the second experiment.” Du Xingyu continued to invest in the experiment, tirelessly, and tried repeatedly.

Time passed quickly, and it was two months in a flash.

During this period of time, the heat of the previous rocket recovery has long disappeared without a trace, and the people are still paying attention to celebrity scandals and entertainment variety shows.

However, in the scientific and technological circles, more attention has been paid to aerospace companies and aerospace scientific research.

The US Space Agency announced that it would establish cooperation with US Space Exploration Technology, Boeing, American Airlines and other companies. As soon as the news was announced, the space exploration technology company’s stock price soared, and its market value soared to more than 200 billion US dollars!

In other countries, some aerospace companies, engines, and aerospace materials companies have also welcomed the capital market and countries.

The World Space Race officially kicked off, and those rocket research, engine research, and spacecraft research and development plans that were put on hold were put on the motion again.

The news that China Space Administration is developing nuclear-powered rockets has not disclosed it, and it is still a confidential project.

…

China, Qiantang. Dong Jiangbo, the founder of Xingyao Space Technology, came here, visited one of his intended investors, and founded Teacher Ma of Alibaba.

These days, many foreign capitals wanted to invest in Xingyao, but Dong Jiangbo refused.

He knows very well that Starlight Capital can only be a Huaxia Enterprise, and it is best to accept investment from Huaxia Enterprise. There is indeed a lot of investment, but there is no one willing to spend 10 billion.
