With the support of a ninth-level civilization, do you want me to believe in electronic gods?

Chapter 157: Forty Thousand Kilometers of Demonic Obstacle

After a short wait, the white light gradually dissipated, and the originally transparent metal shell returned to its original appearance.

"One? What happened just now?"

Looking at this magical sight that he had never seen before, Chen Fan finally couldn't restrain his curiosity: "Why did the metal casing of this computer suddenly become transparent?"

"Normal behavior during particle-level scanning."

Yi gave the answer: "Unlike basic scanning, particle-level scanning has higher power and accuracy. When particles are penetrated by the scanning beam, there will be a reversible change. From a macro perspective, the object becomes transparent. .”

Chen Fan suddenly understood, but then he realized a problem: "Particle-level scanning?"

"Do you still have this function? Why haven't I seen you use it before?"

"In that privilege upgrade document, you didn't just read the weapon information, right?" Yi's voice was a bit strange, "Individual soldier particle level scanning is a function that can only be used by formal investigators."

"As for why I didn't use it before..."

"On the one hand, you don't have enough authority. On the other hand, theoretically, the impact of particle-level scanning on microscopic particles can be reversed. However, considering that there are certain unexpected factors, such ultra-high-power particle-level scanning is usually not possible." It will be used on living organisms and important objects."

"Accident?"

"Unlike the environment in the laboratory, there are various unpredictable interferences from the outside world. The currently recorded sequelae of particle scanning mainly include data loss, cancerous necrosis of carbon-based cells, and damage to the internal structure of some high-precision devices..."

Listening to the series of sequelae reported by Yiyi, Chen Fan smacked his lips lightly.

Yes, technology is a double-edged sword. This is true.

Even as strong as the People's Alliance, it cannot completely eliminate the negative effects of high-end technology.

"The target hard disk data has been successfully recovered."

As he sighed, the electronic synthesized sound sounded again, and Chen Fan's eyes were attracted by the holographic interface in front of him.

This is a log information about a rocket launch experiment, which also contains a lot of subjective records.

……

On January 1711, 1, the first test launch was recorded at the Haian Deep Space Observatory.

What was launched this time was still a deep space observation satellite.

Taking into account what has happened in the past twenty years, we have specially carried out a comprehensive transformation of this rocket - the exterior of the rocket is fully equipped with reactive armor and ballistic steel plates.

To be honest, when we were building this rocket, I thought we were building a heavy tank.

In order to send this heavily loaded rocket into the universe, we spent a lot of time and energy on the rocket's propulsion system.

Even if we significantly reduce the weight of deep space observation satellites and other components, the weight of a complete set of reactive armor and ballistic steel plates is still beyond the capacity of the original propulsion system.

Fortunately, with good luck, we made a key breakthrough in propulsion technology some time ago.

……

Chen Fan stared blankly at the information in the holographic projection.

Reactive armor and ballistic steel plates installed on the outside of the rocket?
The weight reduction measure turned out to be to reduce the weight of other components inside the rocket and the satellite?

What does this new version of the ship mean?
And what does that mean about events that happened in the past twenty years that are mentioned in the diary?
With countless confusions, Chen Fan continued to look at the launch log in front of him.

……

The maturity of propulsion technology gives this rocket named [Hope] hope to take off.

The weather is nice today and it is a good day to launch rockets. All researchers from the Deep Space Observatory came to the control room on the first floor.

Everyone had a faint smile on their face, except Deputy Station Director Liang.

Before the launch, Deputy Station Director Liang came to me and applied to cancel the launch mission.

The reason turned out to be that he dreamed that the launch failed last night? !

Damn it, we have added the most advanced armor device to the outer layer of the rocket, this launch will definitely not fail!

I think Deputy Station Commander Liang is dizzy when he says such words that shake the morale of the military before the rocket is launched!
I severely criticized Deputy Webmaster Liang.

I don’t know why, but Deputy Webmaster Liang didn’t pay attention to my criticism. His expression was dull, as if he had been hit by something, and he murmured some words in a low voice that others could not understand.

Although I sent Deputy Station Director Liang to the medical room, his actions still poured cold water on the atmosphere in the control room.

The night was long and full of dreams, so I did not wait any longer. After completing the last check before launch, I directly issued the launch order for the [Hope].

The moment the countdown reached zero, a brilliant tail flame erupted from the tail of [Hope], and the chemical fuel spurted out successfully launched the heavily armored [Hope] into the sky!
This is a victory for chemical fuels!
The researchers who study the Hall propulsion device should really let those who study the Hall propulsion device see this spectacular scene. This is the charm of chemical fuels!
As time goes by, the height of [Hope] continues to rise, its flight attitude is very stable, and all indicators are quite perfect.

The "Hope" built based on countless failed experiences is just like its name, full of hope!

The launch vehicle separated successfully!

Ten thousand kilometers.

Twenty thousand kilometers!

Thirty thousand kilometers! !
Seeing that the Hope was getting closer and closer to the damn 40,000 kilometers, the control room fell into complete silence.

Time passes bit by bit, and the pointer symbolizing altitude is getting closer and closer to the 40,000 kilometers marked in bright red.

Suddenly, the pointer jumped for the last time and successfully touched the 40,000-kilometer mark!

Succeeded?
Seeing that the altitude figures were still rising slowly, there were vague discussions in the control room.

But in the next second.

A piercing alarm sounded suddenly, and several large characters appeared on the screen in front of the control room.

[Signal lost]

……

Seeing this, Chen Fan's expression became solemn.

Obviously, the launch of the rocket named [Hope] has failed.

The reason for the failure was that it hit the so-called 40,000-kilometer mark.

It’s not just Hope. Reading between the lines, it seems that none of the rockets launched in the past two decades have successfully breached the altitude of 40,000 kilometers.

"Geostationary Orbit."

A voice came from the side: "This machine has roughly measured the parameters of this planet before. It is 40,000 kilometers, which is exactly the height of Varela's geostationary orbit."

"Forty thousand kilometers?"

"An integer?" Chen Fan was stunned, "What a coincidence?" "It's indeed a coincidence, but there are many coincidences in the pan-universe. It's just the height of a synchronous orbit, so there's nothing to make a fuss about."

Although he was a little surprised, after hearing what Yi said, Chen Fan no longer paid attention to this issue.

"So, why are these rockets unable to cross the geostationary orbit?" Chen Fan pondered for a moment and asked.

"I don't know." There was a bit of confusion in Yi's voice. "Theoretically speaking, it is not difficult for this civilization to put satellites into synchronous orbit."

……

[Hope] exploded.

Damn it, I just said Deputy Station Director Liang’s name is unlucky!
Liang Ruyuan, Ruyuan, Ruyuan...

This name is clearly destined to fail!
The image data returned by the high-definition camera was played.

Just like the rockets that tried to cross geostationary orbit in the past two decades, [Hope] was hit by some unknown force at the moment it successfully crossed an altitude of 40,000 kilometers.

The reactive armor and ballistic steel plates we installed on it didn't do anything.

In just an instant, a huge hole was torn open on its surface.

We didn't even see the attacker!

Continue to strengthen the shell of the rocket, and one day we can break through the shackles of 40,000 kilometers!
……

1713 9 Month 14 Day.

The second test flight experiment.

failure.

Even though we use the latest materials to make the shell of the rocket, it is still unable to withstand unknown attacks from 40,000 kilometers away.

This time, I was outside the Haian Deep Space Observatory and watched a small fire appear in the dim sky.

I know, [Hope No. 2] also exploded.

Two consecutive failures took a huge toll on researchers' morale.

But research will continue, and the 40,000-kilometer barrier will surely be overcome by us!

……

1719 years.

The third test flight experiment failed.

[Hope 3] still hasn’t broken through 40,000 kilometers.

There was a dispute within the observatory, and some researchers wanted to pursue other breakthrough solutions - such as increasing the speed of rocket flight.

It sounds like a good plan to reduce the load of the rocket as much as possible and break through the 40,000-kilometer barrier as quickly as possible.

Since we can't resist the unknown attack, let's escape from its attack range!

……

1725 years.

The fourth test flight experiment failed.

The extremely lightweight [Hope 4] has the highest flight speed in history.

But...it still hasn't broken through the 40,000-kilometer barrier.

In a flash of fire, it reached the same ending.

Research appears to have entered the barrier.

This failure hit the researchers particularly hard. Deputy Station Director Liang Ruyuan and many researchers chose to leave the Haian Deep Space Observatory.

good! Way to go! !

Next time, next time we will definitely succeed!

I want to see how regretful they will be then!
……

1729 years.

The fifth test flight failed.

The notice from above was sent down.

Cancel the Haian Deep Space Observatory.

Not just the Haian Deep Space Observatory, but all deep space observatories have been banned.

After consuming countless resources, senior leaders have become completely desperate.

They decided to change their perspective——

Since you can't climb to the sky, then set your sights on the ground and underground.

When I learned the news, I sat outside the Haian Deep Space Observatory all night.

Looking at the unchanging stars in the sky, I felt endless sadness in my heart.

Will humans in the future have to dig holes underground to survive like mice? !

……

1730 years.

All the researchers left the Haian Deep Space Observatory, and the superiors even sent people to move all the equipment in the control room.

Not only that, they even wanted to expel me from the Hai'an Deep Space Observatory!

I do not go! !

I am the director of the Haian Deep Space Observatory. The Haian Deep Space Observatory is still there, but I can’t leave!

They said I was crazy.

I know, I'm not crazy.

I just want to see the world beyond this planet!
So what if there are no researchers?
Even if I am the only one left, I will build a rocket that can cross the 40,000-kilometer magic barrier! !
