Chapter 555: The Blazing Dawn
The whole year of 1979,
The experiments carried out by the Qiusuo Research Institute's third-generation fusion project research team show a trend of continued narrowing in the technical route.
However, the frequency of experiments conducted by the project research team has not decreased, but has increased further.
Relying on the lunar industrial center, multiple experiments are often carried out simultaneously regardless of cost.
It can be regarded as creating an unprecedented spectacle in research and experiments since human civilization entered the era of science and technology.
At the same time, the fog shrouding heavy nuclear fusion technology is gradually becoming clearer.
After the research on the ignition problem mainly focused on the remaining technical routes,
The research on this within the Qiusuo Research Institute has begun to enter a new, forward-circulating process.
Basically, it is to conduct a round of experiments, then collect the experimental data, and finally summarize it here at Mo Dao.
Then, under the auspices of Mo Dao, the experimental plan was modified and the next round of attempts was carried out.
For the research teams and researchers involved, they can basically feel clearly that
Mo Yuan, who has always been in control of the overall situation in the research process of third-generation fusion technology, seems to have a clearer understanding of heavy nuclear fusion technology.
And this clearer understanding has begun to guide the direction of the entire experimental research.
The research on the entire project has therefore entered the state that the research teams and researchers of the entire Qiusuo Research Institute are most familiar with.
That is to say, Mo Yuan guides the direction of research, and the entire Qiusuo Research Institute's relevant research team, under the guidance of Mo Yuan, continues to attack the city and move forward.
Even though the research on heavy nuclear fusion is much more difficult than usual this time,
But after entering this familiar mode,
Throughout the Qiusuo Research Institute, the confidence of the researchers seemed to have suddenly increased a lot.
Under the leadership of Chief Mo, they seemed to have never really been trapped by a problem.
…
To a certain extent, the feelings of the researchers at Qiusuo Research Institute are actually right.
Regarding the research on heavy nuclear fusion, Mo Dao has indeed gradually developed a research direction.
A large number of experiments lasting several years produced a large amount of data,
For others, the value may not be that great,
For Mo Dao, picking and choosing among various data gradually sketched out some outlines of the expected third-generation controllable nuclear fusion technology.
If the technical route leading to the third generation of controllable nuclear fusion technology is a trail,
The data obtained from the continuous experiments at this moment are probably the weeds beside this trail.
Maybe it has nothing to do with the technical route, but it allows Mo Dao to more clearly identify the location of that technical route.
This entire experimental research process,
It's a bit simple and crude, as if the arrogant and saturated firepower forcibly covers every corner of this question.
But it doesn't matter,
Just like in Kerner's life, Mo Dao never hesitated to pour out firepower.
…
Under the auspices of Mo Dao, this repeated experiment and research process,
It lasted from 1979 to the middle of 1980.
now,
Twenty-one years have passed since Mo Dao last woke up from hibernation.
Sixty-seven years have passed since Mo Dao's comeback in this life began.
The first time I set my life goal to achieve a light-year voyage and reach Proxima Centauri,
More than one or two lifetimes have passed.
At this moment, his physical age in this life has reached fifty-seven years old.
Even though this life is also due to breakthroughs in life science and technology, technology is better than the previous life in ensuring the quality of life before people reach the limit of life span.
But at this time, Mo Dao was still considered to be in the later stages of middle age.
And finally,
In this year,
Mo Dao saw a glimmer of hope for a true voyage.
In another large-scale test at the space test site in the middle of that year,
A large hill-like structure built with the help of Sui Gu was severely damaged.
But...this experiment was successful.
They achieved the occurrence of heavy nuclear fusion for the first time.
More than two billion degrees of light shined briefly in the space test site,
Although the entire process of heavy nuclear fusion only lasted less than two seconds.
Although previous research only focused on ignition, fusion could not be sustained.
Although the Qiusuo Research Institute directly ignored the constraints of heavy nuclear fusion during this test,
This expensive experimental device has effectively become a disposable item.
The terrifying temperature after the fusion occurred directly penetrated the experimental device itself, producing results similar to a furnace accident.
If it weren't for the fact that the harsh conditions for heavy nuclear fusion to occur are difficult to maintain,
After the device is damaged, heavy nuclear fusion naturally stops.
Maybe this experimental process is more like building an amazingly powerful nuclear bomb.
But none of these things will affect it.
At this moment, under the leadership of Mo Dao, Qiusuo Research Institute has achieved another great achievement.
The significance of this experiment,
It is probably equivalent to the first controllable nuclear fusion experimental device to the controllable nuclear fusion technology itself.
Perhaps there is still some distance between experiments.
But I have already started on this path.
When the third generation of controllable nuclear fusion technology is counted in the future, that is, the birth history of heavy nuclear fusion,
Everything will start from this moment!
certainly,
For Qiusuo Research Institute,
After achieving brief heavy nuclear fusion,
Although there are still many difficult problems in subsequent maintenance and restraint,
But it seems that it is not that difficult anymore. In terms of maintaining and constraining controllable nuclear fusion... he has been led by Mo Dao and has completed two generations of controllable nuclear fusion technology research institutes, and has rich experience.
also,
Although this experiment was short-lived, and although the experimental device was declared scrapped after one use,
But in addition to the success of the experiment itself, a large amount of data about this experiment was also returned.
Based on this data,
Modao will tailor a turbulence model for the construction of heavy nuclear fusion reactors.
When you've used up your brute force, try your skill again.
lunar base,
Mo Dao looked at the short experimental pictures sent back from the testing site.
It's rare and a bit dazed,
Then,
In the experimental command hall of the lunar base, a large number of researchers smiled excitedly and smiled.
…
"Today, the third-generation controllable nuclear fusion technology research team of Hualian Qiusuo Research Institute, under the leadership of Chief Engineer Mo, completed the first heavy nuclear fusion test,"
"...Research on third-generation controllable nuclear fusion technology has entered a new stage."
"... From the first generation of controllable nuclear fusion technology to the second generation of controllable nuclear fusion technology, the world has undergone earth-shaking changes. What will the third generation of controllable nuclear fusion technology bring to us?"
"The birth of the third generation of controllable nuclear fusion technology may mark the next era after we enter the intelligent era!"
outside world,
Because of the success of this heavy nuclear fusion test, it seems very lively.
Although heavy nuclear fusion technology has not been realized,
But the media and many people are already thinking about the future.
Having experienced the dramatic changes brought about by two generations of controllable nuclear fusion technology,
People have no doubt that another breakthrough in controllable nuclear fusion can bring about new and huge changes.
And in the bustle of the outside world,
Qiusuo Research Institute, Mo Dao led a group of researchers from the relevant research team,
Follow-up research on third-generation fusion technology continues,
As fast as possible, we walked through the journey from the first realization of heavy nuclear fusion experiments to heavy nuclear fusion commercial reactors.
Although this process may be much more difficult than the initial realization of controllable nuclear fusion,
But at this moment, there are also many conditions that did not exist at that time.
Developed productivity, developed computing power, strong artificial intelligence, and a larger team of researchers.
In the second half of 1980, in order to collect data,
Qiusuo Research Institute successively manufactured several experimental devices and conducted similar tests at the proving ground.
Then, in 1981, 1982...
