Xiao Xuanyu, who spoke eloquently, slid the information display panel of the nuclear fusion rocket to the side of the "trash can", turned to Ren Hong who was listening carefully, and said: "The British have been researching the propulsion of this engine since the 1970s. Technology, the nuclear fusion rocket is one of the main research projects of the Daedalus Project. The key point of the technology is controllable nuclear fusion. If the British realize this key technology, the nuclear fusion rocket has a bright future. [Love ↑ Go △小↓说△网W wW.Ai Qu]”

Saying that, looking at the next thing, said:

"This is an idea proposed by the Germans, called 'Bassad ramjet engine'." Xiao Xuanyu waved his right hand and adjusted a spotlight screen to the best viewing angle for the two of them. He added: "'Bassad ramjet engine' The jet engine' exemplifies the German style of steady technological development step by step, but it is also self-defeating because of this."

"Almost all rockets and new engine technologies including the ones mentioned above face the same basic problem, namely: if you want greater acceleration, you need to carry more fuel, then the problem comes, carrying more fuel means that the vehicle The mass increases, which in turn reduces the acceleration, almost an endless loop."

"'Bassad ramjet engine'?" Ren Hong was taken aback, and some related information immediately appeared in his mind. When he thought of this, he shook his head again and again, and said with a smile: "No wonder the Germans just imagined, the so-called The 'Bassard ramjet engine' is just a joke. This engine technology is too unreliable and completely deviates from the original design purpose. I can make a bold judgment that this thing will only exist in the imagination forever. Those who dare to invest money It's either rich or stupid."

"Indeed!" Xiao Xuanyu laughed, tapped the spotlight screen with his left hand and waved it lightly, and flung it aside, which was equivalent to clicking the engine technology.

In the eyes of the two, the Germans are indeed very funny. The "Bassard ramjet engine" proposed an unreliable solution to solve the problem of the dead cycle.

According to the idea of ​​the Germans, the "Bassard ramjet engine" is also a kind of nuclear fusion rocket, but the way to obtain propulsion does not rely on nuclear fuel, but hydrogen ions in space. Hydrogen ions are drawn into the engine.

But how many hydrogen ions can there be in the almost vacuum space? If such a vision is really to be realized, then the range of the electromagnetic field must reach about thousands of kilometers, which is almost impossible. In order to solve this problem, the Germans proposed an extremely ridiculous method through artificial means, that is, to launch fuel from the earth in advance on the calculated route, and then allow the spacecraft to obtain fuel along the way without the need for a huge electromagnetic field. .

This kind of assumption is estimated to be unreliable even by the original proposer himself.

Not to mention others, no wonder Ren Hong shook his head repeatedly when he heard the 'Bassard ramjet engine', and eliminated them without hesitation.

Xiao Xuanyu paused, and then said: "The following is the Light Sail engine technology. We have already realized it, but the shortcomings are also obvious. Whether it is the Light Sail front-engine propulsion technology or the technologies listed above, there is one thing in common. It is limited to short-distance travel, and the efficiency is low. Let’s talk about our light sail front propulsion engine technology. The longest voyage between Mars and the Earth takes 100 days. According to the traditional propulsion method, the speed is already very fast.”

"However, such speed and efficiency are still not the usual signs of K2-level speed. What about Jupiter, Saturn, and even the Kuiper belt at the edge of the galaxy? How much time will be wasted on the voyage? And After the light sail is deployed, there is a fatal weakness, the front engine makes it impossible for Mars Express to pass through the asteroid belt, which means that it can only move within the asteroid belt."

"Well, I'm listening, you continue to talk." Ren Hong said.

Xiao Xuanyu nodded and continued: "The above engine technology can basically be ignored. I have two other solutions here, such as the 'hyperspace engine'. If the universe has more dimensions, does that mean that the 'hyperspace engine' can be used?" What about the engine's spacecraft traveling through multi-dimensional space at extreme speed?"

Ren Hong shrugged and said, "Hyperspace engine? Under the laws of modern physics, this is almost incomprehensible."

"Indeed, then there are wormholes! But this is a point to be considered for K3-level civilization technology, and it is not in the range of K2-level standard speed." Xiao Xuanyu said, and then called up the last display panel, saying: "All the above mentioned It can be ignored, but perhaps we should pay more attention to this—El Cubir’s engine technology idea!”

"Curvature engine?" Ren Hong looked curiously, thinking in his mind, but he didn't say anything, he wanted to hear the other party's opinion first, and said, "What's your opinion on the curvature engine?"

"El Cubir engine" is the so-called "curvature engine", also known as "warp speed engine".

This technical idea is very famous in the world, thanks to the warp speed engine that appeared in the "Enterprise" in the movie "Star Trek", it can be said to be famous.

Seeing what Ren Hong said, Xiao Xuanyu thought for a while and said, "El Cubir's engine, or the warp speed navigation, uses the loopholes in the laws of physics to break the limit that the speed of light cannot be surpassed to achieve super-light speed."

"However, there are many unavoidable problems in the El Cubir engine. The most important one is the so-called 'strange matter' which is unknown to this day, which is a particle with negative mass and extremely negative pressure. What exactly is 'strange matter'?" Xiao Xuanyu shrugged and asked himself, "Antimatter?"

He added: "I don't know anything except the so-called indispensable 'strange matter'. One of the theories is that the energy required to maintain the 'warp bubble' is theoretically calculated to exceed the total energy of the universe. A large number of radiation sources will be produced, threatening the safety of the crew. Is the more important so-called "singular substance" there? Without this thing, warp speed sailing is needless to say, and signals cannot be transmitted during warp speed sailing, which means that the crew Not being able to control the ship at warp speed is something I don't think even an experienced crew would want to fly."

Xiao Xuanyu said helplessly: "The Elcubier engine technology is the ideal K2-level speed, but it is almost impossible to achieve it."

"Also." Ren Hong stared at the Enterprise, the protagonist of "Star Trek" displayed on the spotlight screen, and said: "One more point is practicality. The energy required to sail at warp speed is even the current output of the entire human society. The sum of energy cannot be achieved, which determines that warp speed navigation is too extravagant. In addition, if the spaceship equipped with the El Cubir engine will be in an awkward situation, the speed of light, how many times the speed of light? Ten times? One hundred times? Not to mention energy consumption, how big is the universe? It would take 1,000 years to travel across the Milky Way at 100 times the speed of light, let alone travel across the galaxy."
