Chapter 585 Northwest Research

A total of 18 members of the FASTER project team signed a non-disclosure agreement. Under the leadership of Shen Qi, they joined the "Spot Project", mainly researching the C plan of the reflective satellite fluid planar film.

The reason why the non-disclosure agreement was signed is because the "Spot Project" is still in the confidential stage.

However, absolute secrecy is difficult to achieve, after all, there are satellites of other countries in the sky.

Not long ago, the United States CNN reported on a TV program that "China has built a 50 million-kilowatt reflective satellite solar power station":

"Satellite pictures show that more than 100 square kilometers of microcrystalline silicon thin-film battery packs have been established in Northwest China, and supporting facilities for maintaining microcrystalline silicon thin-film battery packs are spread throughout Northwest China. Chinese scientists and engineers involved in this project There are more than 100,000 people, construction personnel and soldiers. This is just ground engineering.”

"The core part of this plan is located in geosynchronous orbit, and China is expected to launch more than 100 special satellites to reflect sunlight."

"These satellites and the advanced equipment they carry will precisely focus the sunlight on the microcrystalline silicon thin-film battery pack on the ground with an efficiency hundreds of times that of natural light intensity, so as to realize efficient and controllable solar power generation."

"A solar power plant with an installed capacity of 50 million kilowatts used to be an unimaginable crazy plan, but now, China is implementing this plan step by step."

"We all know that it is not original to China to generate electricity on the ground by reflecting sunlight through satellites."

"The U.S. Department of Energy had a similar idea twenty-five years ago, and they are the real originals."

"Just because of financial problems, the idea of ​​the US Energy Administration has not entered the engineering development stage until today."

...

CNN's ability to become one of the world's top 500 companies stems from their professionalism and efficiency.

It can be said that CNN's report on the "Spotlight Project" is relatively objective.

So how did CNN get these objective evidence?

First, CNN has a large number of satellites in geosynchronous orbit, not just communication satellites.

Secondly, CNN mentioned that the concept of the "Spot of Light Project" was originally conceived by the US Department of Energy and American scientists.

Through satellite observation and reasonable guesses by American experts, CNN gave China's "installed capacity of 50 million kilowatts", "more than 100 square kilometers of microcrystalline silicon thin-film battery packs", "more than 100,000 builders", "more than 100 reflector satellites" and other important data.

Sure enough, it is professional enough, and the conjectures of CNN and American scientists are still reliable.

After Shen Qi saw the CNN report, he didn't appear too nervous.

The Americans can infer macro data such as "50 million kilowatts", "100,000", and "100", which is within Shen Qi's expectation.

This is by no means a traitor within the party, but that the Americans have this strength.

After all, it was the Americans who first proposed the idea of ​​"reflecting satellites to focus sunlight to generate electricity on the ground". It is not difficult for them to deduce some macroscopic features of the "Spot of Light Project" from the data taken by satellites.

If the specific technical data of the "Spotlight Project" is in the hands of foreign groups, it means that there are traitors within the party.

Fortunately, this did not happen, nor will it be allowed to happen.

After being reported by CNN, the "Spotlight Project" has become semi-public in the international arena.

The attitude of the state and Shen Qi is that the foreign media should report as they like. We are building livelihood projects on our own land. Does this not violate international law?

Yes, that's right, the original creator of the grand concept of "focusing sunlight on the ground to generate electricity by reflecting satellites and asking the sun for inexhaustible, efficient and environmentally friendly new energy" is an American.

We must pay our utmost respect to the original conceptionists, Professor Sam Ransard of Caltech and Mr. Isaac Karanovic, Senior Technical Advisor to NASA.

However, it is only a conceptual idea on paper and cannot solve the actual problems of people's livelihood.

More than 13,000 technical patents related to this grand concept are all in the hands of the Chinese government.

Empty talk harms the country, but hard work rejuvenates the country.

It took the real Chinese nearly twenty years to turn a theoretical concept that was too crazy to be unrealistic into a huge project that can be seen and touched.

Shen Qi has been the executive chief scientist of the "Spot of Light Project" for some time. He has been staying in the capital and has not been to the Northwest Ground Base yet.

Picking an auspicious day, Shen Qi arrived at Dunhuang Airport by special plane, accompanied by Chief Engineer You Junfeng and Chief Logistics Officer Zhao Mingze. Shen Qi's driver and bodyguard, Second Lieutenant Wu Jianjun, went together.

The general headquarters of the "Spot Project" was established in the capital, and the command post of the Northwest Base was established in Dunhuang.

From the moment he got off the plane, Shen Qi felt a solemn fighting atmosphere.

The person who received Shen Qi and his party was not the leaders of the Dunhuang administrative department or the science and technology department, but Colonel Cheng, a military officer from the Western Theater Command.

The appearance of Colonel Cheng confirmed CNN's speculation that indeed some Chinese soldiers participated in the "Spot of Light Project".

After Wu Jianjun saw Senior Colonel Cheng, he immediately saluted a standard military salute.

Soldiers should take the initiative to salute senior officers, leaders of the party and the country, or party and government officials whose positions are higher than their own. Soldiers interact with ordinary people, and shaking hands is enough.

Colonel Cheng responded to Wu Jianjun with a military salute, while he, Shen Qi, Chief Engineer You, and Director Zhao used a handshake salute.

"Chief Engineer You, Director Zhao, we meet again. Academician Shen, you are very welcome to come to the Northwest Base to guide the work. Please get in the car." Colonel Cheng carried out the reception work concisely.

A convoy with a special license plate left Dunhuang Airport, and military helicopters hovered above the convoy.

Among them, there were six people sitting in a seven-seater military vehicle. The driver was Senior Colonel Cheng, Wu Jianjun was the co-pilot, Shen Qi and Senior Colonel Cheng sat in the second row, Director Zhao and Chief Engineer You sat in the third row.

"This time I came to the Northwest for research, Senior Colonel Cheng took the trouble." On behalf of the capital research team, Shen Qi first thanked Senior Colonel Cheng for his thoughtful arrangements.

"Academician Shen is a national hero in the field of scientific research. It is my duty to serve you and the capital command headquarters." Colonel Cheng said politely.

The main responsibilities of Colonel Cheng and the troops under his leadership in the "Spot of Light Project" are: 1. Guard the ground facilities, technical experts, and operators of the "Spot of Light Project". The safety of national property, technical experts, and the people. 2. Assist the technical engineering team to complete the construction of the ground facilities of the "Spot Project".

To completely destroy the ground facilities of the "Spot Project" and eliminate the technicians and construction personnel of the "Spot Project", at least one elite division's armed force is required.

This kind of large-scale armed attack is almost impossible to happen in China today.

No enemy dares to do this and it will surely lead to a world war.

The construction of such a huge project as the "Spot of Light Project", regardless of whether the enemy has the courage to attack us, our country's military defense is essential. This is also the reason why Colonel Cheng appeared here.

Shen Qi's mood was a bit complicated. First of all, he felt a complete sense of security. Second, he felt a greater responsibility on his shoulders. The country has invested an astronomical amount of human, material and financial resources in the "Spot of Light Project". This grand project can only succeed and not fail.
