793: Chapter 793 Detailed Arrangements to Obstruct

He raised his hand to bring up the holographic projection, and the measured data of the Nuclear Fusion micro-reactor, ecological circulation system, deep space ii docking mechanism, and long-term life support module were displayed one by one.

"The fusion power and closed-loop ecological technology carried by deep space ii can be completely transferred and applied to the space station cabin. The Nuwa System's intelligent measurement and control, as well as fault self-diagnosis capabilities, can also support the space station's dual-mode operation of long-term unmanned and manned stationing."

"With the deep space ii spacecraft as a round-trip transport carrier, the space station's personnel rotation, material supply, and equipment maintenance will no longer be bottleneck problems. Since the basic conditions are all mature, why bother repeating the old path of experimental satellites?"

The data was detailed and the logic was clear; after listening, everyone showed expressions of sudden realization.

Ordinary aerospace teams were constrained by the three major shortcomings of power, ecology, and round-trip transport, so they had to follow the rules. But Xinghai Group held the core technology of Nuclear Fusion and reusable aerospace spacecraft, which truly broke the shackles of traditional aerospace.

The chief engineer of the satellite project looked energized and immediately stated: "CEO Chu is right! With deep space ii as a transport platform, plus the support of mature Nuclear Fusion power and ecological systems, the space station project indeed has the foundation for implementation."

"We will immediately adjust the focus of research and development, split the team, and have part of it continue to advance communication and navigation satellites, while the main force will fully shift to the space station project approval and tackling."

Chu Qianlan nodded slightly, "The space station adopts a modular design, divided into four basic functional cabin sections: core main control, life stationing, material supply, and payload experiment. The overall structure does not pursue bloated scale, but focuses on high integration, long endurance, and expandability."

He paused and further clarified the technical requirements: "All cabins will uniformly use the aerospace composite skin developed by Hanxing Materials, with anti-space radiation and micro-meteorite impact indicators benchmarked against the deep space ii standard."

"The Nuclear Fusion micro-reactor will be the main energy source for the entire station, supplemented by small energy storage modules and solar energy to achieve energy self-sufficiency."

The orbital design expert hurriedly recorded the parameters and asked: "CEO Chu, how should the space station's preset orbital altitude and inclination be defined? Should we plan for subsequent cabin docking expansion interfaces?"

"The orbit is temporarily set at a 420-kilometer near-Earth circular orbit, with an inclination that adapts to the conventional test flight route of deep space ii." Chu Qianlan said with a determined tone, "All cabin sections will reserve standardized interfaces so that in the future, functional cabins can be continuously added according to needs such as scientific research, deep space exploration, and on-orbit production, creating an on-orbit comprehensive platform that can be iterated for a long time."

"Navigation satellites will be networked in two batches. The first batch of 30 will prioritize the completion of near-Earth orbit networking, first ensuring high-precision positioning for spacecraft round-trips, base measurement and control, and near-sea airspace; the second batch will simultaneously plan for medium-high orbit networking, gradually building a full-domain autonomous navigation system."

"Communication satellites will be advanced simultaneously, with geostationary orbit satellites prioritized for deployment to achieve global communication relay with no dead zones, serving not only the civilian market but also ensuring the encrypted communication needs of our aerospace formations and overseas bases."

"The first batch of satellites must complete testing before June of next year, at which time they will be carried by deep space ii into the scheduled orbit."

...

One by one, instructions were clearly implemented, and the heads of each sub-project quickly claimed their tasks. The atmosphere in the conference room turned from initial hesitation to high morale.

Someone stood up and asked: "CEO Chu, after the space station is built, how will the stationed personnel be planned? How many researchers are planned to be stationed on orbit for the long term in the initial stage?"

"The initial on-orbit establishment is 6 people, implementing a two-month rotation system." Chu Qianlan replied, "Stationed personnel will be selected from special training security team members and aerospace research backbones, taking into account multiple capabilities such as equipment operation and maintenance, on-orbit experiments, and cabin inspection."

"In addition, for all on-orbit experimental projects of the space station, the early stage will prioritize docking with top domestic research institutions such as Longke Academy and Shuimu Aerospace Research Institute, opening compliant experimental workstations, and jointly carrying out research in fields such as space materials, microgravity physics, and space astronomy."

"Technology sharing will strictly observe boundaries, and core classified projects will be carried out independently by us."

Everyone nodded. This plan took into account self-use, cooperation, and long-term expansion, and the layout was very comprehensive.

The meeting lasted for nearly three hours, covering project splitting, team allocation, technical nodes, funding allocation, confidentiality levels, and external cooperation rules, all of which were finalized.

After the meeting, each team immediately rushed back to the laboratory and trial production workshop, working overnight to adjust the R&D plan. The entire satellite R&D center instantly entered a state of full-load operation.

...

Thousands of miles away in The White House of the Eagle, the atmosphere was still oppressive.

After the USS Gerald R. Ford was towed back to the domestic port, the maintenance list and damage report piled up on the desk. The hull was extensively damaged, more than half of the carrier-based aircraft were destroyed, and although the nuclear cooling pipeline was sealed in time to avoid a major nuclear leak, the entire aircraft carrier completely lost its combat capability and could not be repaired in the short term.

After major military industrial enterprises came to evaluate, they gave a conclusion: complete repairs would take at least three years, with an estimated cost of over 20 billion US dollars.

Coupled with the series of chain strikes such as the previous rocket attacks, the annihilation of mercenaries, and the emptying of offshore funds, the fear and hatred of the high-level officials of the Eagle towards Xinghai Group and Chu Qianlan reached their peak.

The Secretary of Defense stood in front of the big screen, where real-time satellite images of the Hengxing Aerospace Base of the Dragon Kingdom were scrolling, and said with a gloomy tone: "They are building Nuclear Fusion spacecraft on one hand, and launching space stations and full-domain navigation and communication satellites on the other. The entire interstellar industry chain has already taken shape."

"If we continue to let them develop, in the future, not only will our maritime hegemony be lost, but the space field will also be comprehensively crushed."

The Director of Intelligence Agency rubbed his throbbing temples; the consecutive days of failure had left him physically and mentally exhausted: "Conventional assassinations, armed attacks, public opinion smearing, and planting spies have all failed."

"The opponent's network defense, ground security, and air interception systems are perfected to the extreme. The few weapons we secretly smuggled in cannot gain any advantage in a head-on collision."

"If a head-on approach doesn't work, then change the approach." The President leaned back in his chair, a flash of ruthlessness in his eyes, "Launch the overseas technology infiltration plan."

"We still have many cooperative aerospace institutions and private aerospace companies around the world. We will unite with some forces in the European system and take action from three directions: aerospace standards, international orbital resources, and space frequency bands."

"First, block their overseas orbital applications, and then unite with the old aerospace alliance to refuse to recognize their spacecraft universal interface standards, using rule barriers to drag down their pace."

A business official on the side added: "We can also link with overseas operators to set thresholds in the landing links of StarChat overseas communication and Xinghai Group's satellite signals, exert pressure from the civilian side, cut off part of their overseas revenue, and slow down their R&D capital turnover."
