172: Chapter 172 Gravitational Wave Device
Japan has really been having a rough time lately, but truthfully, this is entirely of their own doing.
Since the aerial standoff that day, the aerial formations from both sides have conducted several consecutive aerial expulsions and escort flights over that sea area, sometimes with a frequency of several times a day.
The pilots of Japan's Air Self-Defense Force have become somewhat exhausted because of this.
Constrained by relevant domestic treaties, although the quality of Japan's Air Force is decent, its quantity is nothing to brag about when compared to the two major powers nearby, not to mention those top-tier pilots.
In contrast, on the domestic side, the military is absolutely thrilled. The Naval Aviation units from various theater commands have been taking turns, and there is even an enthusiastic situation where they are fighting over who gets to go on missions.
Adding fuel to the fire, Japan previously followed the United States in relentlessly sanctioning Russia to the north. Although it faithfully fulfilled the principle of being the obedient "number one little lapdog" of Northeast Asia, it also offended the beast of the north.
Russia also knows how to stir the pot; they have been watching the aerial expulsion actions between the two countries from the sidelines the entire time.
Japan suddenly found itself unable to cope, and public opinion within the country grew tense day by day.
The Cabinet is more concerned about public opinion and the economy, believing that this aerial tug-of-war should end quickly, and that they should actively have the Ministry of Commerce discuss relevant matters, rather than completely following the United States' pace.
After all, the two countries have close economic ties.
The military, however, disagrees, believing that stopping now would be equivalent to surrendering.
That would lead to being completely despised by neighboring countries and would be a great humiliation, so they must persist and hold the standoff to the end.
The Japanese Prime Minister's staff tried to appease them back and forth for a long time, but to little effect.
Apart from the Naval Aviation, other military units didn't pay much attention to these matters, nor would they, because they were all busy with their own affairs.
Especially the Heavenly Army; after the selection process ended, they have been training day and night.
Of course, there are exceptions, namely the Air Force. The standoff between the Naval Aviation and Japan has reached the Air Force, and a few hot-headed youths in the Air Force are now green with envy, repeatedly going to their leaders to argue.
Their goal is simple: they also want to find some Japanese aircraft for a round of training.
"Nonsense, are the land environment and the maritime environment the same? Can't they just settle down? If they could fly over both land and sea, then why would we need our Naval Aviation? Haha."
Wang Wei said this seriously after hearing about it, but he was secretly pleased.
Wang Wei was discussing this with several pilots when a base leader waved at him from afar.
Upon seeing this, he hurried over.
"Captain, do you need me for something?"
"Pack your things and report to the Yanjing Weapons Research Institute immediately. There are new equipment simulators there that need you to break them in."
"Equipment simulators? What's that? I'm not going. I have to go continue competing with that Japanese idiot named whatever-Ichiro tomorrow!"
When Wang Wei heard he was being transferred away, he became anxious. For the past few days, whenever he flew into that area, he would call out that Japanese ace pilot by name. The two of them had been going back and forth, "fighting" intensely.
Asking him to pull himself out of it at this time was practically killing him.
"The equipment simulator is for the carrier-based aircraft of the aerospace carrier kunpeng. The first batch of prototypes will be out in a month, and the military has specifically requested the best aviators in the entire armed forces to undergo practical training."
"You only have one month of training time. Once the equipment is ready, it will be immediately put into actual combat. This is the intention of Academician Chu Ge. If you don't want to go, forget it; I believe many people are fighting to go."
The captain made a move to turn and leave, but Wang Wei jumped in front of him, his eyes wide open.
"Academician Chu's new equipment? The aerospace carrier's carrier-based aircraft? Captain, why didn't you say so earlier? I'll go, I must go! I'll go back and prepare right now. I'm leaving! Boss, there is no one in the entire base more suitable than me. See you later!"
Wang Wei ran off as he spoke, looking back with a grin on his face.
"Train well, don't embarrass our Southeast Base... you brat."
The captain scolded with a smile from behind.
...
After finishing some matters regarding the carrier-based aircraft, Chu Ge began to turn his attention to the system blueprints of the Lunar Base. It would take about another month for the aerospace carrier's carrier-based aircraft to be completed, and he couldn't just wait around.
The construction project was progressing steadily, and he felt he should turn his focus to the moon.
That day, he pulled up the data he had previously redeemed. There were several fundamental and crucial systems within the Lunar Base.
The most important one was the Gravity and Gravitational Wave Device, which was the fundamental basis for the entire base's existence.
Therefore, Chu Ge planned to start with this, while others such as the VR virtual environment, life and ecological maintenance systems, and the full set of artificial intelligence systems for the Helium-3 mining factory would follow in order.
Chu Ge skipped directly to the gravity device and began to look at it bit by bit...
A day passed. Chu Ge looked at the sky outside, which had already darkened, stood up, and stretched his arms.
"A whole day has passed, and I've realized that I've looked at nothing; I completely don't understand it. System Big Brother, this gravity device of yours is a bit mysterious. Fortunately, it's now, and they have already gotten used to my neurotic brain."
"If I had reported this Gravity and Gravitational Wave Device to them from the very beginning, I'm afraid, I'm afraid I would have been taken away for dissection and research."
[It's normal. Given the current technological level of your planet, it is indeed very difficult to build a microscopic and macroscopic hybrid gravity device. Technology is accumulated bit by bit. This model is also a part, or rather a prototype, of the black hole spacetime distortion effect.]
"Do you mean that an artificial black hole needs to be based on this and then further evolved?"
[Yes!]
Chu Ge sensed something from System Big Brother's words and hurriedly sat down.
The Lunar Base's gravity and gravitational device is a type of super-gravitational quantum wave device, which involves the microscopic linear velocity of particles and quanta, as well as macroscopic wave effects, with the two being entangled with each other.
