Chapter 1459 Electromagnetic Pulse Field

The piercing alarm sounded again in the monitoring room.

It means that the launch vehicle for the second launch encountered the same problem again.

"Execute the Domain B scenario."

Wang Minghai was not troubled by the sudden alarm sound, and issued orders very calmly.

With the first failure, he did more preparations for the second launch.

Especially for this kind of loss of contact, several solutions have also been made.

Under Wang Minghai's order, all the staff began to get busy, flashing a series of codes on their computers.

This made Liu Mingyu feel as if he was watching a sci-fi movie.

There are already contingency plans, so everyone seems to be busy, but they are doing it in an orderly manner.

Wang Minghai seemed to be worried that Liu Mingyu was a little impatient waiting on the side, and took the initiative to explain: "Boss, don't worry too much, as long as the hardware is not damaged, there is absolutely no problem this time."

Liu Mingyu asked, "If the hardware is damaged, does it mean that the launch failed again?"

Wang Minghai groaned in his heart, and then smiled: "There will be no hardware damage. Before the launch, we have gone through more than four rounds of inspections to ensure that nothing is wrong before carrying out this launch mission."

"Professor Wang, you are overthinking it, I didn't say that your work was not done well.

Since you just raised a possibility, if the hardware is damaged, does that declare the failure of the mission?

Is there any way to save it? "

Liu Mingyu always felt that those satellites and space stations in space were out of function, and it was very likely that they had encountered an electromagnetic pulse attack.

No, it should be an electromagnetic pulse field.

An electromagnetic pulse field that envelopes the entire outer space of Earth.

This electromagnetic pulse field can continuously release electromagnetic pulse attacks, and any electronic device that enters the area will be destroyed instantly.

According to what happened to the last launch vehicle, Liu Mingyu felt that this possibility was very high.

"As long as it's not the faulty hardware that doesn't involve critical equipment, there's not much of a problem.

We still have backup options to deal with.

But if it involves a breakdown of critical equipment, there is no way to repair it.

The most important method now is to obtain control over the launch vehicle and find out the cause of the failure. "

Wang Minghai explained.

Suddenly, Wang Minghai glanced at the monitor next to him, and said with a serious expression, "Boss, take a rest for a while, I'll deal with things first."

Without waiting for Liu Mingyu to answer, Wang Minghai shouted loudly, "Give up plan b and implement plan c immediately."

"Yes."

Everyone responded in unison, and the staff of the entire monitoring center entered a busy state again.

They are constantly trying to get in touch with the launch vehicle, however, all the interfaces show a status of loss of contact.

Ten minutes passed.

The launch vehicle had already exceeded the designated altitude and flew further away.

The monitoring center is in mourning.

Everyone is downcast, now that they have failed again.

However, there are still some people who did not give up and continued to execute according to the previous exercise plan.

"Boss, I'm sorry, I failed again."

Wang Minghai walked over to Liu Mingyu in dejection, lowered his head, and did not dare to look up at Liu Mingyu at all.

Just now, I boasted to the boss that this launch mission was no problem, but the reality turned out to be very face-saving.

One mistake can be forgiven, but this is the second time the same mistake, he himself dare not forgive himself.

My own years of experience are of no use at all here.

Never encountered a similar situation before.

In fact, Wang Minghai has made several emergency plans, but none of them work, and all the emergency plans have lost their proper role.

Liu Mingyu looked at Wang Minghai, who was downcast, and laughed loudly: "Don't worry, if you fail, you fail.

We need to find the reason for failure now is the most correct course of action.

Instead of being downcast here. "

"Boss, why don't you change people, I feel like I'm no longer up to this task."

Wang Minghai felt that he had fallen behind. The launch of a simple communication satellite failed twice in a row.

For the third launch, Wang Minghai has no hope of success at all.

Liu Mingyu comforted from the side. "Professor Wang, don't think too much, failure is the mother of success, as long as we find the reason for failure, we will definitely succeed.

Let's ask Professor Gao to discuss it together and see if we can find the reason for the failure of the mission. "

an hour later.

Gao Honglin rushed over from the underground manufacturing factory with many technicians.

In the conference room next to the launch monitoring center, Wang Minghai, as the host, began to introduce the reasons for the failure of the two launches.

Wang Minghai said: "Dear colleagues, the above is the process of the failure of the two missions. Please help us to see what went wrong?"

Liu Mingyu said: "Before the discussion, I will give my opinion first.

As we discussed before why those satellites, space stations, etc. in space lose contact.

A possibility has been proposed before, that is, the sky is likely to encounter an electromagnetic pulse attack, which will cause all the electronic equipment above to fail.

The reason for the failure of the two launch vehicles is likely to have encountered electromagnetic pulse attacks, which caused damage to the equipment on the launch vehicles, resulting in the inability of the store to contact the launch vehicles. "

Gao Honglin questioned, "If those satellites in the sky have been attacked by electromagnetic pulses, it is indeed possible.

However, according to Professor Wang's description of the two loss of contact with the launch vehicle, the height of the loss of contact is very uniform.

It's always impossible. In space, there are people or creatures that are specifically staring at things launched from the earth, right?

Then, at the specified height, the electromagnetic pulse strike was carried out at the right time.

As we all know, EMP attacks generate strong electromagnetic pulses to damage electronic equipment.

The energy released is instantaneous, the duration is very short, and it is impossible to maintain the electromagnetic pulse state for a long time.

To take a step back, if there is such a weapon, the energy consumed is very huge.

I don't know if there are other places, but in terms of the current technology of the earth, it has not reached this level. "

Wang Minghai said: "I personally stand on Professor Gao's side, and I also considered electromagnetic pulse attacks during the second launch, and made a certain degree of protection.

But in the end, the connection was still lost.

The reason for the failure should be that something else happened, it's just that we haven't found the real reason for the failure. "

In the face of the doubts of the two, Liu Mingyu did not feel uncomfortable, and he was able to ask questions, indicating that everyone was sincerely looking for the reason for the failure.

Liu Mingyu laughed softly: "Professor Gao, Professor Wang, I have no problem with your two opinions.

If it is only in terms of the technology of the earth, it is indeed as the two professors said.

Electromagnetic pulse weapons, when attacking enemy equipment, release high-power, high-energy electromagnetic pulses in an instant.

Usually a one-time hit.

There is absolutely no problem in this regard.

You joined the Xingchen Group later, maybe some things are not clear.

We have encountered persistent electromagnetic pulses.

Any electronic device that enters the area will be destroyed instantly.

This feeling is like an electromagnetic pulse field, which can continuously carry out the work of destruction.

At that time, the electromagnetic pulse field encountered was relatively small, only about tens of thousands of square meters.

But it's somewhat similar to what's happening with launch vehicles today.

It's just that the area of ​​action is much larger. "

"There is such a thing? I have never encountered it. If it wasn't for the boss, I would not believe it."

After listening to the two, they were amazed again and again. If it wasn't for Liu Mingyu, they would never believe that such a thing happened.

This is so contrary to the science they have been taught.

But since the zombie virus came to the world, everything has changed.

There seems to be nothing incomprehensible about the presence of such electromagnetic pulse fields.

Liu Mingyu asked, "Apart from this possibility, do you think there are other possibilities?"

Gao Honglin raised his hands to vote: "I think the possibility that the boss said is still relatively high.

Although until now, I still don't know how the other party attacked the electromagnetic pulse and controlled it in the outer space area of ​​the earth.

If there is such an electromagnetic pulse field that covers the entire earth, then it makes sense.

But now, this only happens when you reach a certain height.

And we on the ground don't matter.

This ability is really unimaginable. "

Wang Minghai swept away the previous haze and said with a loud laugh: "Then the third time we launch a carrier rocket, we will manufacture it according to the continuous attack of the electromagnetic pulse field.

I can't believe it. Launching a communications satellite can still stumped me. "

Liu Mingyu said loudly: "Yes, that is to have such confidence.

Failure is not terrible, brave, not afraid of difficulties!

The third time doesn't work, just the fourth time, the fifth time.

I believe that one day we will be able to launch a communication satellite. "

During the following meeting, everyone had a heated discussion on the materials for building new launch vehicles and communication satellites.

Although the possible reasons for the failure are known, it is quite difficult to create a device that can withstand the continuous attack of electromagnetic pulses.

There are mainly several methods to protect against electromagnetic pulse attacks.

First, shield.

When the carrier on which the electronic information equipment is installed is constructed as an electromagnetic shielding body, the electromagnetic pulse energy is greatly weakened when it is transmitted from the shielding body to the electronic information equipment.

However, this method is more useful for stationary orbit equipment, and does not have much effect on launch vehicles and communication satellites.

Because they also need to control communication satellites and launch vehicles.

The second is filtering.

Various filters are added on the path of the electromagnetic pulse entering the electronic information equipment to allow only the signals of the working frequency band of the electronic information equipment to pass through, thereby suppressing the electromagnetic pulse interference of other frequencies.

This method is relatively feasible for this launch vehicle.

Only the specified band is reserved, and other bands are directly filtered out.

In addition, there are grounding methods, using electronic devices and optical cables with strong electromagnetic pulse resistance, and using millimeter-wave electronic information equipment and optoelectronic equipment.

In fact, there are still many ways to protect against EMP attacks.

In this world, electronic devices are everywhere.

There is still a strong sense of protection against the devastating blow of electromagnetic pulse attack.

However, the difficulty this time is that the electromagnetic pulse attack is a continuous attack, instead of attacking once and then stopping after two attacks.

If communication satellites need to continue to work, they will inevitably encounter continuous electromagnetic pulse attacks in space.

To make communication satellites work properly, I am afraid that we need to find manufacturing materials that can continuously resist electromagnetic pulse attacks.

Materials that resist EMP attacks are easy to find.

However, materials that can continuously resist electromagnetic pulse attacks and materials that ensure the normal operation of their own equipment are quite difficult to find.

Everyone sifted through the materials in their minds, but did not find any materials that fit the current situation.

As a last resort, I can only hand over this arduous task to the people in the research institute, hoping that they can develop this material.

The original long-distance communication plan was temporarily shelved.

For Wang Minghai's technology, Liu Mingyu has seen it.

The two failed launch vehicles did not affect Wang Minghai as a technology leader on artificial satellites.

Because before this, no one has encountered an electromagnetic pulse field that can continuously release electromagnetic pulse attacks.

Moreover, Wang Minghai's specialty is mainly in the manufacture of artificial satellites, rather than in the search for materials.

Long-distance communication, this plan is very critical.

It plays a very important role in Liu Mingyu's external expansion and exploration.

It is probably very difficult to research this kind of material by simply relying on the people in the research institute.

Time to add bricks and mortar to them.

Liu Mingyu opened the technology tree and found an artificial satellite.

Sure enough, as he thought, in the manufacturing technology of artificial satellites, there is a technology on how to manufacture materials that resist electromagnetic pulse attacks.

Liu Mingyu took a look and found that it would cost 1.6 million points to light up this technology.

Good guy, this is a technique that Liu Mingyu has ever encountered that requires the most points.

That is to say, this technology is divided into five levels in the system's classification.

It is the highest level of technology that Liu Mingyu has ever seen.

Isn't it just 1.6 million points, I have a lot.

Change.

Liu Mingyu directly chooses the passive learning type.

With such a difficult technique, Liu Mingyu didn't want to spend more time in order to save the 800,000 points.

Some simple basic techniques, it doesn't matter if you choose the whole set of materials.

However, for some difficult technologies, the best way is to spend points to let them passively learn and directly master related technologies.

The technology mastered by this method is simply so hard to forget that they want to forget.

Liu Mingyu not only lit up the material technology to resist electromagnetic pulse attack, but also lit up the related technology of communication satellite.

Liu Mingyu spent a total of 3 million points to directly fill up the technology of communication satellites.
