Chapter 1382 - ‘Sky Eye’ Space Telescope
Unlike before, the official languages in Singapore were English, Chinese, Malay, and Tamil.
Now, the only official language is Chinese!
Unlike the simplified Chinese characters used in the mainland, Singapore uses traditional Chinese characters, just like Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.
However, simplified and traditional Chinese characters are from the same lineage. Except for a part of the text, they can actually understand them, and there is no big difference.
And from a certain perspective, Singapore, like Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, attaches more importance to traditional culture than the mainland.
Liu Tao met a calligraphy master held an exhibition in Singapore and received strong support from the Singapore government. Many citizens came to the exhibition to appreciate calligraphy.
A glimpse of the leopard can tell Singapore’s importance to traditional culture.
Of course, the importance of traditional culture is being strengthened everywhere.
The strong influence of Chinese culture cannot be overestimated.
The unique tolerance and assimilation ability of Chinese culture is definitely the strongest in the world and the most capable of uniting the hearts of the people.
The more you explore, the more you will find that Chinese culture has infinite power.
When dealing with Chinese culture, we always take the essence and remove the dross and constantly develop Chinese culture, rather than blindly dislike, reject or unchanging absorption.
Keeping pace with the times, this word also applies to Chinese culture.
After staying in Singapore for two days, Liu Tao went to Lanfang and came to Jakarta.
Jakarta, also known as Coconut City, means Coconut City. You can imagine how rich coconuts are here.
Coconuts from the entire Southeast Asian country are exported to China in large quantities.
China consumes 400 billion coconuts a year, while Qiongdao coconut production is about 300 million per year, which is far from meeting the needs of the Chinese market. The rest are imported from various countries in Southeast Asia.
In addition to drinking coconuts, coconuts are also processed into coconut water, coconut hotpot chicken, etc. There are a large number of coconut processing factories invested by Chinese people in Nanyang.
In addition to coconut, there is another fruit that is imported into China in large quantities, that is, durian. China has to eat about 1.5 million tons of durian a year, which is 350 million to 380 million durians, which means that it accounts for almost 91% of the world. durian.
In addition to eating durian raw, durian is also used to make durian pizza, durian ice cream, etc., which is very popular among Chinese consumers.
Of course, mangosteen, jackfruit, rambutan, sakya and other tropical fruits are also exported to China in large quantities.
In addition to being the title of infrastructure madman, China also has the title of "foodie empire". This is not just a saying.
It is China's increasingly strong consumption capacity that drives the development of Nanyang.
With the implementation of integration and the cancellation of tariffs, prices will inevitably fall further and the consumer market will inevitably rise again.
Arriving in Jakarta, Liu Tao continued to keep a low profile and would not appear in the news reports.
In Jakarta, Liu Tao was warmly welcomed, and the top ten chaebols of Lan Fang jointly organized a cocktail party to welcome Liu Tao.
In China, there is no name for chaebol, but in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Nanyang, chaebols are real.
These chaebols have great influence and often monopolize one field or even multiple fields, with amazing energy.
In the past decade, these Chinese wealthy businessmen have grown rapidly, and they have evolved from wealthy businessmen to chaebols.
However, these Chinese chaebols are very different from European and American chaebols, Japanese and Korean chaebols, that is, they are much more restrained and have much more good deeds. However, there are few people who are called rich and unkind or Zhou Bapi.
When I went to Nanyang for on-site inspection, it was already on the eve of May Day when I returned to the capital.
The most important events in the world at present are the Australian, South Asia and West Asia. This is the war that attracts the most attention of the world, and the escalation of the European debt crisis.
In Australia, with the US military personally taking over, it was defined as a rebel armed force by Australia, which suffered heavy losses.
The Americans do not care that these armed forces were supported by the United States, nor do they care that this is in Australia, and directly bombarded with the Air Force first. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a carpet bombing. The bombing targets are not distinguished from military or civil targets. , it's bomb!
In addition, the Americans also used various cannons, including 240mm heavy cannons.
As for street fighting?
The Americans were tired of street fighting and directly destroyed cities and towns through air bombing and cannon bombing.
As for how many civilian deaths will be caused in this process, the US and Australian coalition forces do not care at all.
In other words, in the eyes of the US-Australia coalition, these people are simply not considered human!
Under the offensive of the US-Australia coalition, the specific situation of the war there can only be learned through the press conference of the US-Australia coalition. As for other media reporters, they are not allowed to enter at all.
It is not known how many casualties between the two sides are.
Huaxia can only understand the situation on the battlefield through reconnaissance satellites and reconnaissance drones.
According to this trend, it may not take a few months for the war here to quell.
The turmoil in South Asia once again became a mess, forming multiple fronts, both with outstanding performance and rookies pecking each other.
On the contrary, the Turkish War in West Asia was in a storm. Both sides were evenly matched, and they fought back and forth, which was remarkable.
Türkiye has a bright feeling in the application of modern weapons.
The Kurdish armed forces rely on their terrain advantages to fight defensive counterattacks, and their weapons and equipment are not worse than those of the Turkish army. After all, the Kurdish armed forces are all US weapons, and except for the lack of a navy, the army and the air force are not as good as those of them.
In this kind of mountain war, both sides have really gained benefits from major military observation groups.
However, the Turkish War seemed a bit inadequate compared to the fight between millions of troops on both sides of South Asia.
The European debt crisis is constantly tearing apart Europe, making the rifts among European countries increasingly bigger.
In addition, the most eye-catching thing in the world is the deep-water horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, the United States, which has become one of the most serious offshore oil spills in history.
A U.S. deep-sea drilling ship exploded and sank, causing millions of barrels of oil to spill into the Gulf of Mexico, causing huge damage to marine ecosystems and coastal economies. Cleanups take years and billions of dollars, but their impact on the ecological period remains long-lasting.
This incident has aroused deep concerns around the world about the safety and environmental protection of deep-sea drilling.
This accident also caused Liu Tao, who was in Nanyang at that time, to hold a video work conference, requiring China Petroleum Corporation to do a good job in production safety and take the US Gulf of Mexico oil leakage accident as a lesson for the past.
Back in Beijing, Liu Tao went to the factory area affiliated to Southwest Aerospace Corporation. This factory area is located in the suburbs of Beijing and specializes in the production of aerospace-related equipment.
This time he came here because China's second-generation "Sky Eye" space telescope has been developed and is about to enter the launch.
China's first generation of "Sky Eye" space telescope was launched into space in the 1990s.
That year, the US Space Plan planned to cooperate with the European Space Agency to develop the Hubble telescope, becoming the world's first telescope placed in orbit above the Earth's atmosphere, observing wavelengths from ultraviolet to near-infrared.
This feat caused a sensation in the world. After all, because it is located above the Earth's atmosphere, the space telescope avoids the background light scattered by the atmosphere. It can observe and record astronomical phenomena in more precise and detailed than ground observation stations, and can see and measure the production. The energy process of radiation is of great benefit to studying the universe.
At that time, relevant domestic institutions wanted to cooperate, but were rejected without hesitation.
Therefore, Southwest Aerospace Corporation took the lead in starting the space telescope belonging to China, and developed the first generation of "Sky Eye" space telescope after several years.
The first generation of "Sky Eye" space telescope has made significant contributions to China's research in the universe.
After more than ten years of service and the huge development of technology in the past twenty years, when the 11th Five-Year Plan was formulated, it was decided to develop the second generation of "Sky Eye" space telescope.
The second generation of "Sky Eye" space telescope has undergone a large number of technological upgrades based on the first generation of "Sky Eye" space telescope.
Liu Tao couldn't help but be amazed when he looked at the huge second-generation "Sky Eye" space telescope. Back then, he solved the core technology of the first generation "Sky Eye" space telescope, and the second-generation "Sky Eye" space telescope did not participate. , but the technical team was able to greatly improve the "Sky Eye" space telescope. Behind this result is a group of outstanding scientists emerged, which is an advancement in the field of science and technology in China.
Liu Tao is very supportive of exploring the universe.
Compared to the vast universe, the earth is too small!
Humans are also very small compared to the earth, let alone the vast universe.
The exploration and observation of the universe will continue to promote human understanding of the universe.
The universe and the starry sky are the most suitable for China, because only the universe and starry sky can make China move forward continuously, rather than standing still after reaching a certain level and then entering the vicious circle of historical reincarnation.
In the past twenty years, the Hubble Space Telescope and the "Sky Eye" telescope have spawned four Nobel Prizes in Physics. From this we can see how important it is to the observation and exploration of the universe.
The second generation of "Sky Eye" space telescope will play a more positive role in China's cosmic observation and exploration, and will also promote humans to have more understanding of the universe.
The total weight of the entire second-generation "Sky Eye" space telescope is as high as 25 tons, and it will be sent to orbit with the Long March 5 launch vehicle. Moreover, compared with the first generation of "Sky Eye" space telescope, the second generation of "Sky Eye" space telescope is equipped with ion propellers and can adjust the orbit as needed.
The so-called ion propeller, also known as an ion engine, is to first ionize the gas, then accelerate the charged ions with electric field force and then eject them, and use its reaction force to push rockets, satellites, etc.
Huaxia has been exploring these advanced cutting-edge aerospace technologies.
In terms of progress, it is also very fast and is currently in the first echelon in the world.
Equipped with ion thrusters, you can adjust the orbit in space as needed. Although the current ion thrusters have relatively weak thrusts, they are stable and efficient. It cannot let the spacecraft break away from the surface, but in space, you must know that even a little power can change the spacecraft orbit.
This is why China is constantly applying ion propellers to spacecraft, space probes, satellites, etc.
During the May Day holiday, the whole country is ushering in the May Day holiday.
The second generation of "Sky Eye" space telescope was transported to the Wenchang launch center.
On this day, during the launch time, a large number of tourists and aerospace enthusiasts gathered in Wenchang just to see the launch of the "Sky Eye" space telescope with their own eyes.
This launch uses live broadcast, allowing countless people to witness the launch with their own eyes.
So far, there has been no launch accidents in the Long March 5 launch vehicle, and the success rate of the launch mission has remained 100%.
As the Rocket ignited, the Rocket's engine roared, and the huge thrust pushed the Rocket up.
Even though the launch vehicle has been born for more than half a century, it is still the world's top technology, and there are very few countries and organizations that master the launch vehicle.
Currently, only the United States, Russia, China and the European Space Agency are mastering launch vehicle technology in the world!
The European Space Agency has not yet achieved manned space flight.
The time is short, but it is exciting and blood is thrilling.
When it reaches the predetermined orbit, the "Sky Eye" space telescope is separated and sent back through satellite photos. The huge "Sky Eye" space telescope looks shocking. Such a huge space telescope is the best in human history.
So much so that the live broadcast guest excitedly said that this is the largest space telescope and the most advanced space telescope in human history.
Of course, relevant scientific research institutions are even happier because this second-generation "Sky Eye" space telescope, which costs up to 5 billion yuan, will continuously transmit the captured star maps back to the ground during its designed service life of 20 years. They are all precious materials for studying the universe.
Once necessary, the second generation of "Sky Eye" space telescope will be able to continue to extend its service life by repairing and replacing parts.
European and American colleagues are also watching the launch live broadcast. When they see the huge "Sky Eye" space telescope, they are all envious and jealous.
You should know that the "Hubble" space telescope is designed to serve for 5 years. It has actually been over-term for many years and has experienced several major repairs in the middle. It’s not that they don’t want to update and more advanced space telescopes, but that the funding is not enough to support it.
Whether it is NASA or European Space Agency, although the space funding is high, there are many things to do. In addition, the labor cost is high, the cost is high, and many projects, let alone the current space funding, it is to use the existing ones. It is still not enough to double the space funding.
The European Space Agency's manned space program has been pushed forward again and again, and the United States' plan to return to the moon has also been pushed forward again and again.
As for space telescopes, they naturally cannot be too equipped. They have to be sewn for three years and repaired for three years, and sewn for another three years!
A penny stumps heroes, and Europe and the United States are no exception.
As for Europe and the United States, they have been calling for data sharing and joint participation, and they are naturally rejected. (End of this chapter)
