Chapter 903 Future Frontier Plan

during the following days,

Xu Mang has been by Xiaoman's side all the time. Although he went to visit the Forbidden City, he did not buy a Mercedes-Benz. Firstly, the Mercedes-Benz G63 is out of stock, and secondly, the price of this car has to be increased... For Xu Mang, this car is not a good car. It is not a 6X6 layout either, the G63 alone is useless at all.

after,

Xu Mang went to the space agency alone, and Secretary Tian received him. Although he didn't know what happened, seeing Secretary Tian's serious expression, Xu Mang knew that it might be a big deal. Could it be... White cat The Mars rover is going to the sky next month?

"Secretary Tian?"

"What's going on?"

"This is in a hurry...Is it because the White Cat Mars rover is going to go to the sky?" Xu Mang asked curiously, "So you are all ready? Not so soon...Didn't you say it was delayed?"

"no!"

"I came to you to discuss a plan. Recently, many people feel that the time is ripe." Secretary Tian said: "The Jupiter exploration plan was proposed four years ago. The morphology and thickness of the ice layer on the surface of Europa, and the structure of the solar wind between Venus, Earth, and Jupiter."

"At the same time, research on the extraterrestrial living state and evolution characteristics of life on Earth, micro-telemetry and remote biological experiments during the exploration of the Jupiter system, observe and study the life state, adaptive response and change process of life on Earth in different space segments."

words fall,

Secretary Tian continued: "Of course this is one of the plans, and there are many similar plans. We came to you to discuss the feasibility of a package plan."

"ah?"

"Detected Jupiter?" Xu Mang was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing: "Actually, it's not expensive... The total cost of the Juno Jupiter probe in the United States is only 1.1 billion U.S. dollars, and the probe is made by Lockheed Martin. Manufacturing, Jupiter is very important to the earth, and relative research should be carried out.”

"After all, we are a big aerospace country, and we can show our due strength in space exploration. The thrust of the rocket is not a problem, as long as the calculation is accurate... Using the gravitational slingshot method, the gravity field of the planet is used to accelerate the space exploration ship, and it will Throw it to the next target." Xu Mang said with a smile.

"right!"

"Our scientists think so too.

"Secretary Tian said: "Academician Xu, you are indeed an expert!" "

"necessary!"

"After all, one of my fields is astrophysics." Xu Mang said, "What's the problem now? Calculate the gravitational slingshot? I can do this...but...the detection of Jupiter requires a time and the cooperation of Mars. ..”

Secretary Tian shook his head and said seriously: "This aspect has already been calculated, and it is more important for us to find you..."

moment,

Xu Mang came to a meeting room, saw a group of people already sitting in it, and couldn't help but froze. The scene...was a bit grand, although I didn't know what it was, but seeing this ostentation, I'm afraid it would be terrible. !

"Academician Xu!"

"Come here...you are here." Seeing Xu Mang, Director Zhang hurriedly waved to him and said, "The location has been arranged for you."

Xu Mang glanced at the row of seats in front of him. As expected, they were all at the academician level. Then he reluctantly walked to his seat. In the corner of the stage.

soon,

This meeting begins,

Xu Mang glanced at everyone in the audience, basically they didn't know each other, but the people on the stage were all old faces...

"Before the meeting starts, I would like to add a few words. In principle, this meeting is our internal discussion, but Academician Xu Mang has cooperated with us many times before. Without him, many projects would not be completed, so this time Call him in."

"Academician Xu Mang can be regarded as half of the staff of our space agency." Zhang Ju said seriously: "Anyone who has an opinion can raise it now, and I will explain it to you on the spot."

"No?"

"Then it will begin!"

For everyone present, they naturally knew that this was just a polite remark. Who would dare to expel Academician Xu Mang? Unless he's gone crazy, or drank some fake wine last night.

"According to the spirit of our superiors, we will implement a comprehensive plan in the future. This plan is called the 'Future Frontier Project'. The first step is to launch a Jupiter probe to detect the composition, gravity field and magnetic field of Jupiter. It is estimated that it will cost about ten years. Three hundred million dollars."

"The second step of the plan is to launch a Venus probe to collect data on the atmosphere and surface of Venus to understand why Venus is similar in size to the Earth and is a close neighbor, but it is so different. The estimated cost is about 700 million U.S. dollars."

"The third step of the plan is to launch and transport landing craft to the south pole of the moon to collect rock samples to further understand the evolution of the earth and the moon..." Zhang Ju continued: "The fourth step is the most important part of the 'Future Frontier Project'. We Will land on a near-Earth asteroid, collect samples and return to Earth."

"This move helps humans understand the origin of life in the solar system, and the total cost of the final step of the 'Future Frontier Project' is three billion US dollars, and there is only one chance."

Xu Mang:? ? ?

What?

The previous plans are easy to understand and there is no difficulty, but it is a bit difficult to land on a near-Earth asteroid!

In the event of a slight loophole, it will be a devastating disaster...Not only will it be sprayed to death by domestic trolls, but also...It will also be ridiculed by foreign psychopaths. This plan...is too bold and too advanced up...

"We discussed it."

"The chief person in charge of the near-Earth asteroid landing project...Academician Xu Mang!" Zhang Ju turned to look at Xu Mang, and asked seriously, "Academician Xu Mang...this is the decision from above."

Xu Mang: (￣△￣;)

Fuck!

It's cold!

I'm afraid this is going to heaven.

At this time,

The damned system is resurrected and given a desperate mission.

[Trigger task: 1999RQ36]

[Description: Complete the detection of the 1999RQ36 asteroid (this asteroid will collide with the earth in 2182, please strive for the chance to survive for your descendants)]

[Reward: Upgrade Card*500]

[Limit: 100 years]

time is one hundred years,

Reward 500 upgrade cards!

at the same time,

Many people at the scene broke out in shock for Xu Mang. It's hard to be the person responsible. If there is any slight mistake in the project of more than 20 billion yuan, it will be charged with historical crimes. It can be said that it is a very thankless task. project.

certainly...

If it succeeds, then Xu Mang will once again become a superstar in the eyes of everyone. He is only in his twenties, and he has served as the person in charge of this kind of project, and at the same time, he succeeded... This is an inspiration to many people. , indicating that success has little to do with age.

But would Academician Xu Mang accept such a high-risk project?

Shouldn't it?

"I obey the arrangement of my superior!" Xu Mang nodded and said seriously.

"..."

"..."

"..."

This... this looks like he is very happy,

What's the situation?

Not worried about accidents at all? If there is any problem with this, jumping into the Yellow River will not clean it up.

After the meeting was dissolved,

Xu Mang was stopped by Zhang Ju, and then came to his office. Secretary Tian was also present, and the three of them communicated on the spot about the details of the 'Future Frontier Plan'.

"latest news!"

"NASA plans to launch another moon landing plan." Zhang Ju handed Xu Mang a document and said seriously, "Look at it...and then talk about your impressions."

took the file,

Xu Mang took a closer look and got a general idea of ​​the situation. It was almost the same as before, but there was a space station above the lunar orbit. After arriving at the space station, he entered the lunar lander, and then reached the moon. After completing the mission of surveying the moon, he returned to the lunar space station and used the moon's gravity. The slingshot effect returns to Earth.

This set of plans is perfect. After all, the United States is no longer the United States during the Cold War. Without the Saturn 5 launch vehicle, this is the only way to do it, but this method can be used as a reference.

"very nice!"

"America's plan to return to the moon, I've heard people talk about it before, but...can Congress agree?" Xu Mang asked curiously: "They don't have any money now, this plan feels...It's against us Race to the Moon."

"right!"

"It is indeed competing with us!" Zhang Ju said: "I don't know if this plan will be suspended for the time being. In many cases, NASA is using us to cheat money from Congress. The space race is about to begin."

"oh..."

"What should I do now?" Xu Mang asked.

"It's nothing, I just hope you can withstand the pressure in the future, whether it comes from home or abroad." Zhang Ju said: "Don't be affected by some discordant voices."

words fall,

Zhang Ju showed a helpless smile, and said to Xu Mang, "Your temper is very stubborn, and it's easy to go to a dead end. Is your wife also like this? Can she bear your bad temper?"

Speaking of Xiaoman,

Xu Mang's heart was chilling, and he said with a sad face: "My wife...don't mention it, she is even more stubborn than me. Although she is very beautiful and very good at making money, but...this temper. ..it just stinks."

"Zhang Bureau?"

"Do you know my wife's uncle?"

"It's XX Yang!" Xu Mang said cautiously, "I'll see you when I have time... Help me with a word to make Xiaoman calm down. I can't take it anymore."

"..."

"..."

what's the situation?

This resentment is not ordinary!

Zhang Ju coughed lightly, and said helplessly: "This is your own family matter, so I...don't participate."

"correct!"

"I want you to take a temporary position at the space agency. I don't know what you think?" Director Zhang asked, "After all, you are the chief person in charge of the most important stage of the 'Future Frontier Project'. If an outsider is in charge of this project, I'm afraid Others will gossip."

"Although you are well-known in China, you have offended many people because of the large-scale collider project." Director Zhang said, "You should know."

"Um!"

"No question!"
