Chapter 789: Mysterious Project
According to Robert's preliminary calculations, as long as this space elevator can continue to work, it will be enough to allow hundreds of millions of humans to reach the moon.
It seems that even if that alien civilization continues to covet Blue Planet, Blue Planet has enough ways to deal with it.
Not long ago, Blue Star captured most of the super-quanta entering the solar system through a beautiful battle, which directly thwarted the alien civilization's plan to monitor Blue Star.
Based on the estimated speed of this alien civilization's space fleet, even if they really continue to send fleets here, it will be decades later.
In other words, as long as no other accidents occur, the Blue Planet will not face the danger of invasion by alien civilizations for at least a few decades.
Although a few decades of time is not worth mentioning at all in the long river of the universe.
However, for the Blue Star civilization, which has been developing extremely rapidly in recent years, a few decades are enough for it to achieve a subversive breakthrough.
…
After the construction of the Blue Planet-Moon Space Elevator Project started, Xu You, Lin Shi and others went to the site to inspect the project on site.
Taking many conditions into consideration, the construction site of the space elevator was chosen to be somewhere in Shenzhou. This will make it easier for Shenzhou to transport supplies to the moon, and will also make it easier for people in Shenzhou to travel to the moon in the future.
After inspecting the construction site for a period of time, Xu You confirmed that the preliminary construction work of the space elevator was completely as expected, and returned to Jijing University with peace of mind.
From now on, the construction work will be managed by a dedicated person 24 hours a day. Unless something extremely unexpected happens, Xu You does not need to pay attention to the project in real time.
Of course, at each milestone, Xu You will still carefully evaluate the progress of the project and determine whether some fine-tuning is needed afterwards.
"Teacher, the Blue Planet-Moon space elevator project is finally progressing smoothly. We have solved another major problem."
"Well, from the current perspective, this project will most likely be completed successfully. However, this is only one of our many tasks. After this, we still have a lot of other work to do."
"I know, teacher. We must never let our guard down until our civilization surpasses that alien civilization. By the way, teacher, which project should we focus on next?"
Xu You was about to answer when he suddenly received a call.
"Okay, I got it, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Shi did not ask Xu You what was going on, because if Xu You didn't say it on his own initiative, Lin Shi would definitely not be able to ask.
But this time, Xu You took the initiative to say to Lin Shi:
"Lin Shi, get ready, we're going on a business trip for a while."
Hearing Xu You's words, Lin Shi was also very surprised and asked curiously:
"Teacher, what happened?"
"Don't ask so many questions for now, but you must go. You will know when the time comes."
Seeing Xu You say this, Lin Shi didn't ask any more questions and prepared the things needed for the trip.
Both of them prepared very quickly. An hour later, Xu You and Lin Shi boarded the plane to their destination.
Before leaving, Xu You only told Lu Zhiyao and Cui Ying that he would be on a business trip for a while, but he did not specify what he was going to do.
Lu Zhiyao knew that Xu You must have gone to some important project team again. She just told Xu You to be careful and didn't say much.
A few hours later, the plane landed on an island.
This island is an artificial island built by Shenzhou. It is not even marked on the map, and most people don’t know of its existence.
After getting off the plane, Lin Shi felt very unfamiliar with this place and said to Xu You:
"Teacher, what island is this? How come I didn't know there was such a place?"
The area of this island is not small, so it should not be an island that Lin Shi doesn’t know about.
"It's an artificial island, not marked on the map. Some things are not convenient for everyone to know until the time comes to know it."
"So now it's time for me to know." Lin Shi said with a smile.
"Yes, you can make as many guesses as you like until you finally see it."
In fact, at this time, Xu You could already tell Lin Shi which project this was.
However, in order to maintain a certain sense of mystery, Xu You did not directly tell Lin Shi what it was.
"Teacher, could this be... a more powerful weapon for us to use against alien civilizations?"
Xu You smiled when he heard this, with an expression of noncommittal.
The two followed the staff's instructions and soon arrived in front of a huge building.
This building is not very tall, but it covers a very large area, about as large as ten football fields.
"Academician Xu, Professor Lin, please come in."
"OK, thanks."
Under the guidance of the staff, the two entered the building.
As soon as they came in, Xu You and Lin Shi noticed that this building was actually quite interesting.
Logically speaking, a building that covers such a large area but is so low in height gives people the feeling that it is a construction site that has not yet started.
But in fact, the interior of the building is not just the above-ground part, there is also a very open space underground.
"This is... a helical carrier?!"
When the huge monster appeared in front of Xu You and Lin Shi, Lin Shi couldn't help but widen his eyes and felt very incredible about the scene before him.
"The Kunpeng aerospace mothership is a project we have been quietly carrying out a few years ago. Just today, the Kunpeng was officially completed and is about to enter the testing phase," said Xu You.
For this project designed by Xu You himself, Xu You is very familiar with Kunpeng.
Even so, Xu You found it hard to imagine that one day in the future he would be able to see this project successfully completed.
"Oh my god, is this the Kunpeng? It's even more spectacular than I imagined!"
From many perspectives, aerospace carriers and aircraft carriers have some similarities, but they operate in different areas.
But in comparison, the vastness of the Kunpeng aerospace carrier is far greater than that of an aircraft carrier.
Lin Shi still remembers the shock he felt when he first stood on an aircraft carrier and faced this huge equipment.
But today, the shock Lin Shi felt was much greater than before.
