Chapter 189 Rapid Iteration
In the Grand Canyon of Jade Star, next to the base, at this moment, the giant electromagnetic accelerator that Han Yang had built with more than 100,000 robots under his command had been dismantled by Han Yang and completely disappeared.
It had only existed for less than three months.
The reason was very simple. It had completed its historical mission, helped Han Yang complete the initial engineering and feasibility studies, and verified the technology developed by Han Yang some time ago.
On its basis, Han Yang developed more advanced technology, and it had to withdraw.
Such a big guy, even for the Itar people, would probably take tens of thousands of engineers and one or two years to complete, and it would require at least tens of billions of huge funds.
The manpower and material resources consumed in all these ways are not a small amount. After it is built, it is necessary to squeeze out the last bit of its value, and it will not be dismantled until it is really unusable.
It was dismantled less than three months after it was built? I have never seen such a waste.
It's not just this electromagnetic accelerator device. Next to it, the nuclear fusion power station is like this, as well as large foundries, mines, metallurgical plants, chemical plants, wafer factories, chip factories, etc.
After the technological innovation, Han Yang will immediately roll it out and use it throughout the base. It will not be like a normal industrial society. It will take several years or even more than ten years for a new technology to be developed and truly applied on a large scale.
In a normal industrial society, it also costs money to innovate a technology. Personnel need to be retrained, equipment needs to be replaced in large quantities, and even the factory buildings may need to be demolished and rebuilt.
This obviously hinders the development of technology to a certain extent, but there is no way to do it. However, for Han Yang, there is no obstacle at all.
With enough computing power invested, hundreds of thousands or millions of robots and more intelligent equipment, what kind of project can't be completed?
In Han Yang's concept, there is no word "cost" at all.
Cost? What is cost? I don't care how much it costs. If it is useless, I will dismantle it immediately and build a new one. Everything is based on the fastest promotion of technological development as the first priority.
At this moment, adhering to this concept, not long after the old large electromagnetic accelerator was dismantled, a brand new electromagnetic accelerator appeared on the old site.
Compared with the previous generation, its size is much smaller.
It is only more than 200 meters long and only 5 meters in diameter. Not only that, its energy consumption is also greatly reduced.
But its performance has made a breakthrough compared with the previous generation.
The previous generation of electromagnetic accelerators can only accelerate a 1 kg iron ball to a speed of 10 kilometers per second at full power.
At this moment, with a smaller size and lower energy consumption, this electromagnetic accelerator can accelerate it to 26 kilometers per second.
With faster speed, kinetic energy will increase, and the power will naturally increase.
"Not enough, still not enough."
Han Yang is still relatively satisfied with the progress at this moment, but it does not mean that he will stop the pace of technological innovation.
After accumulating a certain amount of technical parameters and data and developing newer technologies, another place, the third generation electromagnetic accelerator immediately began to be built, and at the same time, this second generation electromagnetic accelerator immediately began to be dismantled.
Generation after generation of electromagnetic accelerators are constantly built and dismantled, dismantled and rebuilt, and its various technical indicators are rising rapidly like a rocket.
This is the development speed when Han Yang goes all out to promote a single technology.
Yes, at the Yushenxing base at this moment, the technology that Han Yang values most is the electromagnetic gun technology. The reason is also very simple. The electromagnetic gun technology is not only a technology that can achieve a huge breakthrough in the short term and achieve real practical application, but also important enough.
Compared with the electromagnetic gun technology, the rest, such as nuclear fusion technology, ion propulsion technology, spacecraft manufacturing technology, communication technology, chip technology, etc., all require a long time of slow and continuous research and development iteration.
In addition, the rebels should have their own private spacecraft at this moment, and have mastered certain spacecraft modification technology. At that time, as long as they find a way to "smuggle" the electromagnetic gun parts into the solar system and hand them over to the rebels, they can immediately install the electromagnetic gun on the private spacecraft and immediately have combat effectiveness.
Quick results and good effects. Han Yang will of course go all out to promote the development of electromagnetic gun technology.
For this reason, Han Yang has almost no restrictions on the research field of electromagnetic guns. Within the scope of capabilities, he supplies as many robots as needed and as much computing power as needed.
Time slipped away quietly under this situation, and two years passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, the latest model of electromagnetic gun was finally developed successfully.
This electromagnetic gun is only five meters long and 40 centimeters in diameter. Compared with its predecessors, it is undoubtedly small.
Han Yang built a total of ten of this first batch of new electromagnetic guns.
At this moment, these ten new electromagnetic guns were pulled to the shooting range.
The shooting range is a bend in the Grand Canyon of Yushen Star. There is a small hill with a height of more than 20 meters and a thickness of more than 60 meters.
The extremely low temperature on Yushen Star makes this hill, which is mainly composed of water ice and rocks, extremely hard. Under normal circumstances, even if the crusher in the Yushen Star base is turned on at full power, it may not be able to break it.
For this kind of thing, Han Yang usually takes the approach of heating + crushing + blasting.
At this moment, ten seemingly thin and small electromagnetic cannons are aimed at it.
The electricity from the nuclear fusion power station surged, and in an instant, these ten electromagnetic cannons entered the state of waiting to fire.
The special projectiles were filled into the launch room, and with Han Yang's order, the powerful electricity was immediately converted into kinetic energy. In the acceleration channel of just a few meters, the speed of the projectile was accelerated from static to 200 kilometers per second, and then it was fired.
After the first projectile was fired, the second projectile was also fired the next second.
It fired a single projectile with a mass of 1.2 grams at a speed of one per second.
This speed does not seem fast, but there are a total of 10 such electromagnetic cannons.
10 electromagnetic cannons, ten projectiles per second.
So the next moment, this small hill was tested like a storm.
The ground was shaking slightly, and on the hill, hard gravel and broken ice were flying everywhere, and even a lot of dust and water vapor were rising up, like a layer of fog, completely covering the hill.
At this moment, the hill was completely invisible. But the shooting did not stop.
