Chapter 583

The small central control cabin, which holds nearly 20 people, is a little crowded. Even so, people still don't think it's small here.

As a space vehicle, here is only one of the six main compartments, which is already very large.

The control pod entry is a platform.

The platform has obvious mechanical structure. It seems that there is something hidden in it. There are various indicator lights, with a diameter of about one meter and five, as high as waist, embedded in the ground. Next to it is a control panel, which controls which compartment according to the partition and text mark of the button.

Other people found a relatively convenient position and watched Chen Mo walk by curiously.

"This is the power of the plane."

Chen Mo presses a button to enter fingerprint and password information.

For a moment, the bright silver metal cover at the top of the platform spreads like a vortex fan, and a transparent glass column with thin legs rises slowly.

The two ends of the glass column are fixed by a complex mechanical structure, like the two ends of the battery, which are filled with transparent dark blue liquid. In the middle of the liquid, people can see a pale purple polyhedral crystal the size of an egg, which is fixed by a thumb thick and thin conduit, together with the two ends, similar to the battery.

And this kind of "battery", a total of eight, in a circular array in the platform.

"This is the energy battery." Chen Mo said.

There's no need to hide. There are some things that should be announced when the space plane and the ion engine appear.

During the development of the space plane, he thought about the time when these technology exhibitions were in front of other people.

"Impossible."

Several experts lost their voices almost at the same time.

How many goose egg sized crystals can power such a huge plane?

No way.

The existence of this kind of thing is beyond the scope of their current knowledge and cognition.

If Mr. Chen says that small fusion reactors provide energy, their reactions may not be that big. Because Chen Mo has successfully studied the controlled fusion, and it is technically feasible to miniaturize the controlled fusion reactor.

Now Chen Mo tells them that the crystal, which is not big enough to be a fist, is the energy for the ion engine.

It sounds too exaggerated, too incredible.

"Academician Chen, isn't that a joke?" Yang Wei obviously didn't believe it.

It's not that he suspects Chen Mo, it's that it's so incredible and completely subverts their perception.

This kind of thing, at present only exists in the movie, does not even have the theory of reason.

"It's a little magical." Chen Mo didn't care about people's questioning eyes: "but it's true that these" batteries "are the energy of airplanes."

"Crazy, crazy."

It is hard for several experts to accept Chen Mo's determined words.

Here today, they refresh their world view. Whether it's an ion engine or any other technology, it's something that shouldn't be happening now.

He doubted whether Chen Mo was crazy or dreaming.

If there were such energy, what would the world look like? Human development will accelerate for decades.

"This is a kind of new element crystal with high energy transformation. It has specificity. Under the catalysis of strong light, it can radiate high-energy beta particles. The radiated particles increase with the increase of light intensity, so it can be used for controlled power generation."

New elements?

All the people on the stage were silent.

The new element means that the knowledge of it is unknown.

No one thinks that their current periodic table of elements contains all elements of the universe. The universe is so large and there are so many unknown substances that they may not even recognize one percent of them. It is not surprising that there is a special element.

The people on the field are all scientific researchers, and they are quick to accept new things. Chen Mo's explanation slows people's excitement, but it's still full of doubts and disbelief.

"Can this material replace controlled fusion as an energy source?"

"No."

Chen Mo shakes his head.

"In the current law of physical cognition, energy is conserved. The internal atoms of the modified crystal are in the excited critical state. It can radiate high-energy particles under strong light stimulation because it absorbs a lot of energy in transformation, and strong light is only used as catalyst.

We can think of this new element as a kind of energy storage material, which just releases the absorbed energy. When the energy is released, it loses its function and becomes a waste battery.

And there is also a limitation. The volume of the single crystal of this element cannot be too large, and the energy they can absorb is also limited. Once the energy is overloaded, it will be wasted. "

Chen Mo briefly introduces the characteristics of this new element. In order to study these elements, the company's electricity bills are hundreds of millions every month, but Zhao Min sees the data and says he is abnormal.

These crystals, or he went to Science Island, using the star ring of controlled nuclear fusion power generation, the cost is not so terrible.

Experts on the field looked at each other, including the material experts. Material experts have been exposed to many magical materials, but this element is beyond the scope of his cognitive knowledge.Although they had doubts, they still doubted that Chen Mo was false, but because of Chen Mo's authority, they could only temporarily put doubts on their hearts. Because there are so many things in Chen Mo's research technology that they don't understand, which doesn't mean Chen Mo doesn't understand either.

New elements are unknown to any of them.

Chen Mo turns his head and shuts down the energy battery platform to restore its original appearance.

Without his password and instructions, no one would have access to the battery unless the plane was dismantled.

"How do you convert beta particles into electricity?"

"In this reactor, there is a thermoelectric conversion system made of new materials, which can absorb beta particles and heat energy and convert them into electric energy."

Chen Mo took a picture of the control platform.

"In theory, it can absorb high-energy electrons radiated by all radioactive elements. However, the radiation of radioactive elements is uncontrollable and fixed. The difference is that the high-energy electrons radiated by the single crystal of this new element can be controlled by laser catalysis. "

Hiss

Another kind of content they don't have in their knowledge reserve.

The problem is out of line again.

Especially the material expert, at this time, he is more eager to see Chen Mo than the champion of Miss World. If he can, he doesn't mind having a good chat with Chen mo. it's OK to be a student.

During a tour in the sky plane, a group of people came out of it, still in a trance state, and the shock has not faded.

Chen Mo knows all about them. After a circle, he has received too much new information and technology, and they are all new knowledge points.

The value of the plane, let alone the new elements of the battery, is priceless. There are also reactors that use high-energy electronics to generate electricity, ion engines, and many unknown technologies and new materials.

Experts on the field have a feeling of living for half a lifetime.

Any kind of technology they can't imagine in their whole life.

It's not a plane. It's a treasure trove of technology.

The value of all the technologies they study is not as good as the value of one of the technologies contained in the aircraft.

There is only one last doubt left.

Can the plane fly.

If it can fly, it will prove that all the technologies Chen Mo said are true and feasible.

Any technology released inside can cause a magnitude 10 earthquake in the science and technology circle. If all the technology of this plane is exposed, it's not Mars hitting the earth?

After all the people left the plane, they all looked at Chen mo.

They are eager to see the flight test, but they are the team sent to observe. They are guests. What they need to do next is what Chen Mo said, not what they want to see.

"Next, prepare for the test flight." Chen Mo said to Mo nu.

Today's mission was originally a test flight. The expert team just came to visit. Now the weather outside is good, which is a good time for the test flight.
