Chapter 344

"Sir, I'm here mainly for controllable nuclear fusion!"

"Controlled nuclear fusion?" Su Chen raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "isn't the research on controlled nuclear fusion successful? Isn't it going to be ignited? Is there any problem?"

The so-called nuclear fusion, in fact, in a sense, is equivalent to an artificial sun. But the artificial sun is man-made and controllable.

Compared with nuclear fission, neutrons will not be produced in the process of nuclear fusion reaction, that is, nuclear waste with radiation will not be produced. It is an extremely clean new energy.

Once the research on nuclear fusion is successful, the pollution on the earth will be rapidly reduced to less than half, and all energy related industries will usher in new changes.

More importantly, the power provided by nuclear fusion is stronger and more lasting than that provided by ordinary power stations.

In other words, with controllable nuclear fusion, human beings can make electrically propelled rockets and even electrically propelled space shuttles and spacecraft!

At that time, the earth will enter a new era of science and technology at an extremely fast speed. At that time, aerospace will not be just a dream.

And the beginning of all this comes from controllable nuclear fusion.

So in any case, controllable nuclear fusion can not be lost.

Originally, the senior management still had doubts about whether Jiangnan laboratory could develop controllable nuclear fusion, because according to normal development, it will take at least 50 years for mankind to invent controllable nuclear fusion. Now many means are extremely immature.

The so-called controlled nuclear fusion is just a concept.

But no one expected that only a few months later, the controllable nuclear fusion reactor at Jiangnan laboratory would be ignited.

Hearing the news, the whole high-rise was shocked.

The main reason is that the news is amazing.

To this end, the top leaders directly went to Su's house to find Su Chen for confirmation.

After confirming with Lengmo, Su Chen also gave a positive answer.

So far, the whole senior leaders were completely shocked.

If this project is successful, China will completely overtake at the corner, stand at the peak of the new era again, completely get rid of the negative impact of the previous three industrial revolutions, and directly let China stand at the bridgehead of the fourth industrial revolution.

More than that, the so-called fourth industrial revolution is an industrial revolution with artificial intelligence, new material technology, molecular engineering, graphene, virtual reality, quantum information technology, controllable nuclear fusion, clean energy and biotechnology as the technological breakthrough.

These will also be the key projects of Jiangnan laboratory. Even completed the project declaration.

Before that, the senior leaders did not pay much attention to Jiangnan laboratory, and even thought that Jiangnan laboratory was a group of experimental lunatics who liked to impress the public.

After all, there is no laboratory in the world like Jiangnan laboratory. All the applied engineering projects are key projects of the fourth industrial revolution. It sounds like a joke.

Until the news that controlled nuclear fusion was about to ignite came from Jiangnan laboratory.

It can be said that this ignition is of great significance to Jiangnan laboratory. It is of even greater significance to China.

Once the ignition is successful, the benefits are self-evident. Once it fails, the consequences are also very serious.

But because of Su Chen's character and status accumulated in the past, the senior management decided to maintain full trust in Su Chen.

This time, the senior management not only sent big leaders, but also let CCTV follow up the whole process. If possible, they will even consider global live broadcasting!

It can be said that this ignition ceremony may be a world-class carnival. No problem is allowed.

However, Lengmo suddenly finds Su Chen on this issue, which makes Su Chen feel a little uneasy for a moment.

Fortunately, cold ink as a robot is still very reliable.

"Don't worry, sir. Controlled nuclear fusion itself has no problem. I promise that the ignition ceremony will be foolproof and will definitely succeed!"

Su Chen was greatly relieved.

Fortunately, his character was preserved.

"Then why did you come to me?"

"Yes, sir, because the controllable nuclear fusion technology you gave me is an extremely advanced technology. According to the current classification standard, our controllable nuclear fusion reactor should belong to the third generation reactor. It is far beyond the research technology of other countries in the world."

"Is that a good thing?"

Su Chen was not surprised. After all, it was produced by the system. Niu B point is very normal.

"But the problem is that the materials used in the third generation reactor are deuterium and helium 3. Among them, deuterium does not need to worry, because deuterium is very abundant in the earth's seawater, up to 40 trillion tons. If all of it is used in fusion reaction, the energy released will be enough for human use for tens of billions of years.

However, helium 3, another reaction material, is extremely rare on earth. It is said that the reserves of helium 3 on the whole earth are only hundreds of kilograms. If the reactor can supply the global nuclear fusion reaction, it needs at least 100 tons of helium 3 every year! "

Su Chen's heart jumped when she heard these data.

My mom!

Is there too much difference between hundreds of kilograms and 100 tons?

Doesn't this mean that the so-called nuclear fusion reactor is equivalent to throwing a mobile phone into ancient times. The other party can only use it to light up and listen to a song, and then there is no electricity before they have fun.

In ancient times, a mobile phone without power was equivalent to scrapping!

How can NIMA play?

"The whole earth has no helium 3?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, there must not be much helium 3. In fact, helium 3 mainly comes from the sun. In the interior of the sun, there is a process of fusion from hydrogen to helium. One step of the reaction is the fusion of a protium nucleus and a deuteron, which is combined into helium-3.

This reaction is mainly carried out in a very small core region of the star. Most helium-3 will continue to fuse into stable helium-4. Only a small part of helium-3 elements will leave the reaction region and reach the solar surface, which will be blown around by the solar wind.

Because the earth has a thick atmosphere and geomagnetic field, helium-3 elements are blocked out and can not reach the ground at all, so helium-3 resources on the earth are very scarce. "

"Where is helium 3?" asked Su Chen.

"The moon! The moon has no magnetic field and atmosphere, and the helium-3 element in the solar wind will reach the lunar surface and be evenly distributed in the lunar soil; moreover, according to the Research Institute of earth scientists, the moon contains at least 1 million tons of helium-3 resources, which is enough for the earth to use for 10000 years!"

Su Chen is speechless.

Moon? What's the use of the moon?

Don't say ten thousand years, ten thousand years is too long. Now even day and night on the earth are confusing!

Su Chen has a blue pain in his skull.

"How can you say such a big thing?"

Lengmo's face was embarrassed. "Sir, because you provide experimental materials for controlled nuclear fusion, there are not many helium 3 resources in it, so I haven't paid attention to it, and I don't know much about the earth. I didn't discover this problem until an earth scientist assistant asked me about it yesterday!"

Su Chen shook her head, OK! Is this a defect of the robot?

Su Chen shook her head.

What now? Without helium 3, controlled nuclear fusion is a joke. Then a series of consequences will be very troublesome.

Although Su Chen doesn't worry about what these consequences will do to him, she has a headache just thinking of those troublesome things!

Resources! resources!

However, suddenly Su Chen's eyes lit up and slapped his forehead!

I'm stupid! How did you forget it?
