Chapter 557: Chapter 558 Nuclear Pulse Engine

Two years passed in a hurry, and the space construction project was fast-wieled. A large number of Carter people boarded the transport ship and rushed to the asteroid belt thousands of miles from Soli.

Melun, who was directing the deployment of resources, suddenly received a message from an engineering ship manager.

"Mr. Mellon, the current construction plan is going very smoothly. There are a total of 1 million large engineering ships that have been completed. When will our first space warship be built?"

"Some key factors have not been solved yet. Wait a while."

"Mr. Myron, we are running out of time. Amoeba has only given us dozens of public rerouds. If we don\'t start building warships now, I\'m afraid it will be too late."

The captain of the engineering ship affirmed his anxiety. This is not only him personally. He is just a representative, representing the Carter people of the whole engineering ship, and one million other engineering ships. They have been waiting for Melun\'s order to give orders. They have seen the time passing by, but they have not received the construction task for a long time. No To avoid anxiety.

"Then you should design and manufacture the keel of the warship first. Remember, it can only be the keel. Don\'t think too much, so that it will take time to modify the shaped warship."

Mellon stressed that the design layout of the battleship keel can only be started, and the captain of the engineering ship is a little unclear.

"At that time?"

"The technical team led by Dopps is working hard to develop a nuclear pulse engine and new weapons that can be used in space combat." Mellon explained.

The nuclear pulse engine, which used to exist only in the concept of science fiction, was to be made. The captain of the engineering ship almost thought he had heard it wrong, but he also realized that the intention of Melan was to wait. Relying on chemical propulsion to fight space war was to die. Bi Chong would be the dead hole of the chemical propulsion warship, so he needed a nuclear propulsion engine.

Good psychological quality made the captain of the engineering ship quickly accept the reality and ask questions.

"How long do we have to wait?"

Mellon shook his head. "It won\'t take long. Soon."

At this time, on the other side of Sori, in a scientific research institute, a group of scientists were quarreling. The whole conference room was table and paper all over the ground, with various messy formulas written on it, and on the wall and door were also various formulas.

The air in the room is very turbid. Except for excretion, these people have never left the room at all. The boxed lunches piled up in a corner of the room are a good proof.

Everyone can\'t hide their fatigue, but their eyes are still so brilliant.

"Once again, we need to use nuclear energy as the driving force of warships and rely on chemistry to advance the space campaign. That\'s looking for death!"

"But what should we do? As mentioned last time, it has proved impossible to rely on the continuous blasting of small nuclear bomb as the driving force. The utilization rate of nuclear energy is very low. Most of the explosive energy of the nuclear bomb is not projected on the hull and converted into power. At the same time, a large amount of waste heat will accumulate on the buffer plate, and the continuous blasting propulsion without cooling is not possible. It\'s enough to withstand such a high temperature.

"Then we can inject nuclear energy into other substances in another way and use other substances to efficiently convert nuclear energy into kinetic energy."

"How to bet?"

"We can try to use nuclear energy to heat the material to the plasma state, then use an electric field to constrain the plasma, and finally rely on the electric field to emit the ions in the plasma. In this way, after calculation, assuming that the load mass is 4,000 tons, the speed of the spacecraft can be increased to one-eighth of the speed of light."

Everyone focused their thoughts on him because of the idea of this academic member.

At this time, some people raised questions.

"But what about the temperature? The temperature of the plasma must be extremely high, which will require a large number of cooling agents.

"There is no need for a lot of cooling agents. The vacuum environment of the universe itself is a natural insulation layer. If the plasma wants to transfer heat energy to the inner wall of the reaction chamber, it needs to have material contact with the inner wall, but in the state of strong electric field control,

This is impossible." The proposer of the plan explained.But the questioner still feels inappropriate.

"However, the scattered ions will still bring out heat, and there is still heat accumulation on the inner wall. Although the heating speed will not be very fast, it does not mean that there is none."

"Yes, so I don\'t deny that there is still a need for cooling agent. I think only a small amount is enough. We can set up another project to discuss the cooling problem. The most urgent thing is to solve the nuclear space engine."

The final choice of the plan was handed over to the Carter civilization and scientific community, who was selected as the commander-in-chief Dopps at the same time.

Dopps pondered for a while and slowly said, "It\'s an interesting plan, but the question is... What\'s the matter?"

Before he finished speaking, someone rushed in from outside the room. He leaned against the door breathlessly and held a folded paper in his hand. He looked tired, but his eyes did not look tired at all, but just excited.

"Wow...w, it\'s blown up, it\'s blown up!" The man shouted excitedly.

"What blew up?"

Other academic members in the room looked strangely at the excited man at the door.

"Hydromide bomb! Mr. Dopps, your nuclear fusion theory has been confirmed!"

The man quickly went to Dorpes and handed out the fold of paper in his hand. Dopps, who took over the paper, scanned the data on the paper seriously and got a disk sandwiched in it from the paper.

Fortunately, there is a projector in the room, and the images in the disk are projected, releasing a very strong and dazzling light from the slightly curved horizon. Behind the light is a huge shock wave and mushroom cloud, which is above the atomic bomb recognized by the academic members.

That\'s a hydrogen bomb, and this hydrogen bomb represents more than just power, which means that nuclear fusion is a feasible theory!

There was silence in the room for a while before Dopps broke the silence.

"How about the output of deium?"

"The denoium reserves in the Soli ocean are extremely rich, accounting for one-eighth of the total ocean mass. A large amount of demium can be extracted by simple centrifugation." The person who came to report answered truthfully.

"I know. Thank you for your hard work."

After the reporter left, he just proposed to use ions as a media academic member to speak.

"Mr. Dopps, may I ask the question you just mentioned..."

Dopps stopped the other party\'s words. He smiled and anyone could see how happy he was at this moment.

"No, it\'s not a problem anymore. Just now, the problem I want to talk about has been solved."

"Gentleb, nuclear fission is not suitable as the main energy source of nuclear energy engines. The scarcity of reactants and the harsh energy release conditions, I decided to add nuclear fusion to the design." Dopps solemnly announced.
