Chapter 405 Space-based engineering
The vacation is over, and the family returned to California.
Life goes on, An Feng is very concerned about a flu epidemic in Asia recently. Based on Hal's reminder, he asked the research center to pay attention to this aspect, and in the name of the Elizabeth Foundation, he provided free assistance for the development of virus vaccines. But in hindsight it was a false alarm and it was just the common flu.
An Feng's research center has overcome cancer and AIDS, but for the ever-changing influenza virus, there has been no one-and-done solution, only to slow down the symptoms. This is also the only place where he is not sure. If there is an accident, it may happen from here.
Of course, Hal reminded him that there were other potentials as well.
Potentially, he is helpless. How to find the opponent if he hides? This time, however, the medical organization established by the Elizabeth Foundation performed well in the flu. In order to improve operational efficiency, the foundation invested in the establishment of many institutions, and the medical organization is relatively large.
Influenza is only a small problem. Due to the strong support of the Elizabeth Foundation, several countries in Asia have sent thanks, specifically mentioning Joanna. Because everyone knows that the foundation was established by her and her husband, and over the years, she has donated more than tens of billions of dollars in assets in her name.
The foundation’s investment in medicine has a large proportion, helping to overcome more than a dozen difficult and difficult diseases, and it is also unique in terms of children and women’s equality. Right here in China, the Foundation has funded more than two hundred Hope Primary Schools. Because of these acts of kindness, the society thinks highly of her.
Quite a few people want to know the real life of this English noblewoman, but there is very little information. They only know that she is dedicated to charity, but after all, she is a rich man. Her life is different from ordinary people. There are a lot of bodyguards when she goes out, and the information of her children is private. Private life is rumored to be very luxurious.
Simply put, she doesn't care what the outside world thinks, and only does what she wants.
Because of this temperament, many people love her for being straightforward.
But in real life, a great philanthropist is just like an ordinary housewife. She loves her children, cares about her husband’s attitude, occasionally quarrels over minor issues, and worries about her age... Her life is ordinary most of the time , is also very warm.
…
On an ordinary day in April, An Feng was sitting on the grass with a boxing baffle on his arm. His daughter Alice was also in sports attire, with boxing gloves in both hands, and was playing boxing with her father. It's just that the little girl's strength is very weak, and An Feng didn't expect her to become a female boxer.
"Pay attention to the lower body, keep your center of gravity steady." An Feng reminded him, he was sitting on the ground very easily, with sunglasses stuck on his nose, and his bare upper body was full of strong muscles. Alice occasionally punched it by mistake, and he felt nothing. No, but the little girl's fists were weak.
"No way." Alice panted with a small mouth.
"Three minutes ago, it was you who said it was fun, and insisted on pestering Dad to accompany you all afternoon." An Feng said, "When your hands are tired, change your legs and kick them sideways!"
Alice stepped back, turned her body sideways to An Feng, and kicked An Feng neatly.
"Not bad! But don't raise your legs too high." An Feng reminded, "Go on!"
Alice placed both fists in front of her chest, and kicked An Feng again at the baffle in front of An Feng's arm. Although An Feng didn't ask her to practice this, her speed was not bad. Running, swimming, jumping rope with my mother...she is very healthy.
After practicing leg skills for a while, when he was tired and changed hands, An Feng felt that he was almost done. Children exercise moderately, mainly for leisure. Excessive damage is very serious, so when the little girl hit her with a fist, he cooperated and fell down. On the ground, he said in his mouth: "Dad fell to the ground! Surrender!"
"Yeah!" The little girl raised her hands and cheered, and ran around her father, "I won!"
An Feng was lying on the lawn, smiling at the cheering Alice. The little girl was very lively, and she also liked to play this kind of sports that focused on boys. She just hoped that she would not become a female man in the future... Shaking her head to get rid of this thought ,how is this possible! She will be Bai Fumei in the future.
"Mom, I won!" Alice said to her mother who came out of the gym, her little fist was dancing, "Dad was knocked down by me just now."
"It's amazing!" Joanna touched her head, "Mom, please take off the gloves for you."
"No, I want to keep playing!" Alice ran away.
Joanna came to him and sat down. She was wearing a sports vest with an exposed navel and a pair of cotton pants. Her figure looked as hot as when she was young, and her age even made her more attractive. There are no other secrets to the development of hot moms. Pay attention to diet and exercise, and there is nothing good in the world.
"Do you think your daughter is a little too lively?" An Feng turned to look at her.
"No?" Joanna said, "I was similar to her when I was young, very active, but depending on the occasion, Alice is very qualified now."
"I'm relieved when you say that." An Feng said.
The little girl ran out to play for a while, and came back in her younger brother's electric toy car when she was tired. This is specially customized by Anfeng. It has a steering system, accelerator and brakes. Since it is a children's toy, the speed is not fast, but the battery is very strong, there are multiple modes, and parents can also control it remotely.
Smart watches or mobile phones have such APPs, and the remote control is mostly used on one or two-year-old children. At this time, the electric car can only slow down and brake, and cannot accelerate too much. People like Alice who are over five years old can drive freely, with no problem in accelerating and decelerating, and their safety is guaranteed.
But Fred, who is a little over one year old, is very skillful in handling and will stop beside his parents.
"The carrier is in place, the rocket is ready to launch!" Alice said, jumping out of the car, "Dad help me untie it, Dad, I want to see the rocket!"
"Didn't you watch it last time?" An Feng helped her untie the children's boxing gloves.
"I still want to watch it." Alice jumped up, "Didn't you say there will be a launch in April?"
"You have a good memory for these things, but this time you can only watch the live broadcast." An Feng put down the boxing gloves, and then untied the bandages wrapped around her hands.
"That's okay." Alice rubbed her little hands, "Dad, my hands are red."
"It will be fine soon." An Feng said.
"Mom, are you going to see it?" Alice thought jumping to pick up the one just now.
Joanna smiled: "Don't worry, Mom won't go secretly without telling you."
"Oh." Alice nodded disappointedly.
…
Starry Space Exploration Company prepares for a commercial space trip every four months, but not every time they can get enough people, but their commercial rocket launch plan can start after application. For now, they are partners of the U.S. government and some big corporations.
The U.S. government is of course looking for convenience and cheapness. In the past, NASA’s rocket launches cost more than 100 million U.S. dollars, and the heavy ones were even higher. But Starry Sky Exploration has mature technology, they can be compressed to about 50 million US dollars, with a carrying capacity of about 50 tons, and can be sent to the International Space Station.
Such a low cost is enough for NASA to favor them, and signed a billion-dollar space cargo agreement to transport astronauts or cargo to the US space station through the rockets of Starspace Exploration Company. The contract has been completed five times, and the fourth one has been successfully completed. Second-rate.
The American technology giant GP has also signed a contract worth 2.5 billion US dollars to send their commercial satellites into orbit, which is a typical one-shot multi-star. Due to the development of the machine industry, satellites entering orbit can be controlled by the ground precisely. The graphene solar panels equipped with them have a photoelectric conversion rate of 60%, which is more than twice that of the previous silicon technology, which is enough to maintain the operation of robots.
In short, GP's satellite integrates top graphene technology, robot technology, industrial technology and quantum communication technology. As a communication satellite, it is not the traditional electromagnetic wave communication, but the transmission of quantum information. The degree of confidentiality is so high that it is almost impossible was deciphered.
Quantum information is very stable, the delay rate is extremely low, and the speed is fast. According to An Feng's prediction, after the quantum satellite system is established and perfected, the network cables of private companies can be cut off in the future, and all overhead satellites are used. High confidentiality and high speed are for everyone. Enterprises are born.
One day in April, the rocket of Starry Space Exploration Company launched again.
The launch base is located in southwestern Nevada, an empty no-man's land. An Feng was watching the scene in real time through video communication, and Alice was watching from the side. After a while, Joanna brought Fred over, and everyone was still interested in the rocket launch.
This time it is a three-star launch, completing the mission of GP's quantum satellite.
"It's counting down." Alice said.
The rocket is ready on the launch pad, and the surrounding personnel have been evacuated. Since the process has been very proficient after more than a dozen launches before, and the launch technology is not what it used to be, many tasks can be completed by robots. Even detailed inspections are performed by flying robots. .
After the countdown was over, the Deep Space II carrier rocket was ignited, and the surrounding area was filled with smoke, and the rocket slowly lifted off. It was also different from the previous unmanned launches of humans. Although it was unmanned, there were robots inside. Details It can still be done by radio waves.
The launch process was extremely smooth, the speed of the rocket was getting faster and faster, and finally disappeared into the sky, followed by An Feng to switch the screen, through the connection of the quantum satellite above the head, the rocket received it, and then transmitted it back to the satellite, so that the ground command obtained the internal image of the spacecraft, An Feng Also watched in real time here.
"Success!" Alice applauded, and for some reason, she actually watched this somewhat tedious process with relish.
GP company launches communication satellites, on the surface, it aims to be on par with Google and strive to become a giant company, but in fact it is mainly An Feng's personal needs. He wants to complete the first step of the space-based system: communication; complete the second step simultaneously: monitor. Everyone thought it was a communications satellite, but they were only half right.
The camouflaged robot is launched together with the satellite. After entering the orbit, Hal can take over the robot, let it connect with the satellite, and unfold its body to become a standard monitoring system, which is commonly known as a high-resolution camera, which can photograph the earth. You can also turn to the stars.
The purpose of shooting the earth is self-evident, and the starry sky, as a space-based space infrared monitoring system, mainly scans objects close to the earth, and intercontinental missiles flying out of the atmosphere can also be monitored. It could also monitor spacecraft if it's still operational a hundred years from now.
There is no doubt that these are the main goals of space-based engineering.
