Chapter 1273: Chapter 611 The Space Shuttle Experiment Was Announced!_3
This is also true.
Domestic core research and development are focused on large-scale projects, including the Aviation Group’s R&D, anti-gravity technology, Z-wave technology, Space Link Technology, controllable nuclear fusion technology, and so on.
These projects are all very high-end, but when it comes to R&D for small-scale projects, both in terms of the number of personnel involved and the funds allocated, are relatively ’pitiable.’
It’s like developing computer technology independently, only to develop the underlying operating systems, it’s certainly not sufficient. To truly popularize computer technology, many applications need to be developed.
However, core technologies such as anti-gravity technology and Space Link Technology are not shared domestically, and some key projects are still classified. Other organizations and private enterprises simply cannot develop complementary technologies.
Therefore, there is a lack of supporting technologies in the development of space exploration technologies.
The establishment of Yixing Company has somewhat compensated for these deficiencies, ideally allowing small space shuttles to support future spacecraft in realizing more functions and accomplishing more tasks under the support of core technologies.
For example, planetary exploration.
Large spacecraft conducting planetary exploration definitely cannot land directly on planets. They require functional space shuttles for assistance, whether for transporting materials or personnel; small space shuttles are needed to achieve this.
This completes the technological and functional supplementation.
During his discussion with the senior leadership, Zhao Yi successfully completed the mission with the anti-gravity thruster, detaching from the space station.
At that moment, something strange happened.
Normally, once the space station begins a super experiment, the task of the anti-gravity thruster is already completed, and it could return to Earth normally. The focus should definitely be on the space station. Instead, research remained fixated on the anti-gravity thruster, which continued to orbit Earth as usual.
To the confusion of many, the anti-gravity thruster suddenly made a move.
On the platform of the anti-gravity thruster, a small space shuttle appeared, which took off on its own, separating from the anti-gravity thruster.
Afterward, the focus stayed continuously on the small space shuttle.
This small space shuttle, very similar in appearance to a UFO, was clearly structured as an anti-gravity device.
"What is this for?"
"Did they just release an anti-gravity flier?"
"This flier seems to be continuing to orbit Earth, but its trajectory is different from the anti-gravity thruster’s."
The small space shuttle was very fast. During its flight, it even accelerated, and after around half an hour, it had already orbited Earth once.
After orbiting Earth twice, the small space shuttle approached the space station again. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Just as everyone was puzzled by the small space shuttle’s approach to the space station, the host of the live TV program finally received the script for the super experiment.
The script was directly handed to the host, who glanced at it, then suddenly stopped, his mouth hanging open for quite some time without saying a word.
This could be described as a commentary blunder.
The person in charge of the live program crew, immediately dissatisfied, signalled with their eyes while shouting into the earpiece, "Speak up! What are you doing?"
"Oh, oh~~"
The host took a deep breath, then with a complicated tone, said, "We’ve finally received the information on the super experiment, and its name is—"
"Space Shuttle Experiment!"
"The main content of the experiment is for the small anti-gravity space shuttle to perform a space shuttle maneuver. It will—in just ten seconds—"
"Arrive at the moon!"
