Chapter 285 A brand new data node
Under Ye Zhou's remote guidance, the Gonggeer Peak Base finally completed the final deployment, all personnel were in place, and the six-nosed project officially entered the stable operation stage.
What they have to do next is to replicate the prototype of the topological quantum computer one by one according to the drawings and documents.
This project team gathers the strongest forces in the field of quantum computing in China, including not only Chen Ping in the field of topological quantum computing, but also superconducting quantum computing giants. Pan Jianwei, Zhu Xiaobo, and Peng Chengzhi teams who created the 62-bit "Zu Chongzhi". All of these people will be closed in the isolated Kunlun Mountains for more than 6 months in order to complete this technology that will completely change the world with the fastest speed.
This was another extremely urgent task, but they had no choice.
Because the window period is too short. As long as the R&D time can be shortened by one month or even one day, it also means that we can solve it one day in advance. The amount of data that can be obtained within this day can be described as immeasurable.
The pressure on Ye Zhou suddenly increased. He was the only person who had a global understanding of topological quantum computers. Therefore, in almost every step of experiment, he needed to examine and answer the difficulties in theory or practice.
The original regular life was broken again, and the high-intensity work rhythm was restarted. For that certain and extremely bright goal, everyone will do their best.
...........
Thousands of kilometers away from Kunlun Mountain, Xichang Aerospace Launch Base.
There are 7 hours left before the launch window, and the task subsystem inspection has been completed. The low-temperature power commander Yan Wanhong closed the test valve for the last time, checked the leakage rate of all booster combustion pressure measurement check valves, and eliminated all minefields that had been stepped on during the previous launch.
China's aerospace history is a history of exploration of crossing the river by feeling the stones. In this process, we have not made mistakes or experienced major losses. But every time, astronauts have learned more experience from it, and then feed these experiences back to the next launch. This optimization has finally brought the current results.
After all the operations were completed, Yan Wanhong put on a dedicated noise-cancelling headset and began to circle around the rocket. He wanted to judge whether the rocket had air leakage through the sound.
When they were launched by Tiantong-1 satellite before, they had encountered the problem of air leakage in the hydrogen outlet. In order to solve this problem, the launch working group replaced unreliable components overnight, but this replacement led to a series of butterfly effects of the subsequent series of connectors, sockets, and pipelines, which almost led to the missing of the launch window.
However, this time, the largest Long March launch vehicle in my country has been in good condition.
After walking twice, Yan Wanhong picked up the walkie-talkie and reported to the launching command:
"The rocket is in good condition and confirmed to have reached its launch status."
"Received, all on-site inspections before launch are completed, please return to the command center."
"Get it, go back to the command center."
Yan Wanhong left the launch area, and in the sky not far away, the first meteorological balloon had been released.
At this time, the analysis of the thermal attribute characteristics of the atmosphere in the command center is in full swing.
"Each unit reports the latest data, has the atmosphere met the launch window requirements?"
"Meet the transmission window requirements and real-time monitoring is in progress."
"How about the external environment control system?"
"Report, everything is normal, and it is expected to start removing it in 1 hour."
"External subsystem test preparation."
"Received, external subsystem tests are ready, power unit preheating is ready, and on-load component system calibration is ready."
"Prepare to start removing the first-level channel platform."
"Received, the first-level channel platform removal process is ready and the operator is in place."
.........
A series of nervous and orderly commands were issued continuously. Hao Li, the commander in charge of this launch, looked calm. He looked at the various systems that kept popping up on the commander-in-chief's screen to prepare reports and breathed a sigh of relief.
So far, this significant launch has been going well. As long as the final launch preparation process is completed, the rocket will send the core components of the space-based laser anti-missile system it carries into space.
There, the rocket's payload compartment will be connected with the Tiangong Space Station, and a new experimental compartment will be added outside the "Wentian" experimental compartment, named "Sky Survey".
This experimental cabin will carry the command of the entire space-based anti-missile system in the future, echoing the core warhead of the Jiuquan launch, and jointly form a complete space-based anti-missile system.
Hu Xuewen, the commander-in-chief of the power system, saw his expression and asked curiously:
"Master, aren't you nervous?"
Hao Li smiled and replied:
"It's definitely nervous. In fact, it's not just this time. Every time the Rockets want to go to heaven, I'll be nervous. However, when you have achieved this position, you must learn to control your emotions."
"You can be nervous, but you must not affect your judgment because of nervousness---- Speaking of this, I will test you by the way. Now is 5 hours before the launch. What is the preparation process we are entering now?"
Hu Xuewen glanced at the commander-in-chief screen and replied:
"What I am doing now is calibration of the inertial navigation fault-tolerant unit - Master, why did this step start so quickly? I remember that it was only after 3 hours of calibration."
"Very good, you've learned to ask yourself questions, and that's what I was going to test you. The answer is, because it's a calibration."
"We are going to dock the experimental cabin this time, both the transmission and docking accuracy are higher than before, so from now on, we have to do three calibrations in total, this is the first time."
"After the calibration is completed, there will be calibration of the auxiliary positioning system and auxiliary power system testing. All the steps are done without any problem, so that the final evaluation of 'emission' or 'no launch' can be evaluated."
"Most of this decision is made automatically by the system, but even if the system evaluation is not a problem, Commander 01 is also the final decision-making person. The responsibility is heavy and the pressure is also great."
"I will bear this pressure now, and in a few years, you will bear it, so from now on, you will have to practice."
"It's not just about practicing skills, but also about practicing psychology."
After hearing Hao Li's words, Hu Xuewen nodded solemnly.
"Okay, let's not talk anymore. The aviation cabin channel platform will be removed immediately. You go over and watch the progress. That's your old position in your business. As long as you find any problems, report them to me immediately."
"clear!"
.........
The launch countdown is 3 hours, the secondary calibration of inertial navigation is over, and the navigation test begins.
The countdown is 2 hours and 30 minutes, and the c-band signal transmitter is started.
The countdown was 1 hour and 45 minutes, the launch pad safety inspection was completed, and the aircraft stability system was retracted.
The countdown is 40 minutes, and the flight termination system is activated.
The countdown was 4 minutes, the solid rocket ignition engine was started, the aviation cooling fan power was terminated, and the onboard data recording system began to operate.
The countdown is 20 seconds, and the vector control universal joint test of the solid rocket engine is completed.
The countdown is 15 seconds, the valve of the mobile launch platform is opened, and the water flow begins to flush the entire platform.
Hao Li took a deep breath, picked up the microphone, and spoke:
"The launch countdown begins."
“10,9,8,7……”
"3,2,1. Ignite! Take off!"
In the distance, the Long March launch vehicle engine ignited a slam, and a majestic flame gushed out from the tail of the engine. The rocket began to slowly take off at a slow and stable speed!
"Xichang, the program turns."
"Xichang, optical tracking is normal."
"Qingshan, the telemetry signal is normal, and the radar tracking is normal."
"Dongfeng, optical, USB, radar tracking is normal, telemetry signal is normal."
......
Everyone was nervously paying attention to the rocket's flight status, and continuous passwords were sent out one after another, and video signals were sent back to the latest screen outside the rocket, booster separation, fairing disconnection, and secondary host shutdown...
Everything is going step by step.
20 minutes after launch, the payload chamber entered the predetermined orbit, the ship and arrows separated, the solar windsurfing plate unfolded, the space station astronauts sent back the tracking signal, and were about to enter the preparations before docking.
4 hours after launch, the load compartment approaches the space station and enters the deceleration process.
Six hours after launch, the rendezvous and docking was completed, the astronauts entered the "Sky Survey" experimental cabin, and the space-based laser anti-guidance command system was officially started.
At this moment, a brand new data node lit up on the data link screen of all ships in the sea fleet.
Chapter completed!
