Chapter 1254: Chapter 604 Zhao Yi: The Space Cover is a Black Hole!_2

"The most challenging part is still the propulsion because the thruster needs to return to the ground, which requires reserving a portion of energy."

"The space station orbits the Earth at a speed of twenty-eight thousand kilometers per hour, and it takes a day for the thruster to return to Earth. The plan is for it to orbit the Earth seven times to slow down sufficiently to approach the ground."

"Because of the composition of the air, the material strength of the thruster’s outer skin presents a significant challenge."

"Previously, we planned to keep the core and replace the exterior devices after the thruster completed its mission. Now, we are considering using a new type of high-strength compressed material to construct the outer skin." ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

The person in charge introduced many things, but the only thing he didn’t introduce was the principle behind the arrangement of high-energy beams, in fact, he didn’t understand it at all.

The arrangement of internal high-energy beams was designed by the antigravity experimental group and theoretical group. Even the experts at the Aerospace Bureau couldn’t understand the principle.

When asked about it, the person in charge looked at Zhao Yi with a wry smile.

Zhao Yi inquired about the power and energy consumption of the high-energy beams, then directly pointed out several issues with the installation position and angles of the high-energy beam equipment.

Although the entire device didn’t have any major problems, by changing the position and angles of several high-energy beams, energy consumption could be effectively reduced.

"After these modifications, the power consumption can be reduced by about ten percent. You can find out the specific data by conducting an experiment."

The members of the Aerospace Bureau’s antigravity thruster team were instantly filled with gratitude.

Even though only a few positions and angles of the high-energy beams were changed, it directly resulted in a ten percent reduction in energy consumption, which was an absolutely incredible achievement.

The biggest issue with antigravity thrusters is energy consumption.

In fact, the antigravity thruster brought to the space station didn’t need to be so large; the space station occupies only the upper half, while the other half below houses the fuel tanks.

For an antigravity thruster to perform a single mission, the peak requirement is fuel, and the amount of fuel consumed can even exceed that of a rocket thruster.

Of course, the advantage is that the antigravity thruster can carry a weight far greater than a standard rocket thruster. Moreover, standard rocket thrusters cannot be recovered. A single mission costs at least tens of millions at the lowest.

The antigravity thruster merely consumes fuel, which makes its cost significantly lower.

Reducing energy consumption not only brings down the cost of the mission but, more importantly, allows for a smaller thruster to be built, equating to a significant technical advancement."

After returning to the capital, Zhao Yi attended several meetings, including one with the Aerospace Bureau.

The Aerospace Bureau set the launch date for the space station to be three months later at the end of the year, and it was confirmed in the meeting that the space station would have a connecting port for the Z-wave Generator, with expectations to install the Z-wave Generator on the space station within six months.

At the same time.

The international public opinion continued to discuss the spatial shield. The spatial shield had become a long-term hotspot topic, and news about its development was disclosed one after another.

An interesting piece of news was that one of the world’s top billionaires wanted to spend a billion dollars to have the Institute of Mechanics install the latest spatial shield device underground in his villa estate, as he prepared to build the villa above it.

"If a nuclear war were to happen one day and nuclear weapons were to hit the city I’m in, I could activate the spatial shield immediately. Perhaps it would protect me, my family, and friends from direct impact."

"This is very important!"

"The spatial shield can effectively isolate energy, and I believe it will be the best defense weapon. Although the duration is relatively short, it should be sufficient."

The Institute of Mechanics’ research on the spatial shield is indeed very advanced; they have already been able to maintain a spatial shield for up to fifteen minutes, requiring approximately half an hour to activate.

During the entire process, a lot of energy is consumed, but for a top billionaire, this is hardly an issue.

However, this top billionaire’s imagination might be a bit too rich.

Research on the spatial shield is considered the cutting edge and is not yet likely to become available for civilian use. Also, many people still oppose research on the spatial shield, not to mention seeing a spatial shield device installed in the vicinity.

Whether from a legal perspective or other aspects, even if the Institute of Mechanics wished to earn this money, installing it would be virtually impossible.

Of course.

This matter may also be a form of hype.

But without a doubt, the research of the Institute of Mechanics on the spatial shield is now considered the second best in the world.

At this time, a paper by Zhao Yi once again detonated public opinion—

"Analysis of Space Cover and Black Hole."

Zhao Yi published the paper in "Yanhua University School Newspaper" in Chinese, which was almost like a ’regular disclosure of research progress.’

He worked on theoretical research and wouldn’t discuss technical problems.

"Analysis of Space Cover and Black Hole" discussed the shape and properties of the spatial shield as they could be references for studying black holes.

This was a speculative paper.

"I think there are many similarities between the spatial shield and black holes, and the spatial shield can be seen as a black hole without energy."

"It doesn’t possess strong gravitational pull, but it can isolate energy and absorb light; light cannot escape the spatial shield."

"The shape and properties of the spatial shield are very similar to those of a black hole."

"If we view the spatial shield as a black hole without energy, we can study black holes based on the exterior performance of the spatial shield."
