There is also a reason why they are so nervous. During this process, the "Mars satellite" space station assembly may crash out of control in the atmosphere of Mars at any time!
Because its tonnage and speed are really unprecedented for human beings to follow, the whole process depends on the cooperation of these astronauts and the powerful artificial intelligence control system on the space station.
Because of the signal delay, the earth's control center certainly can't directly operate the space station at such a long distance in real time. How can they not be nervous in this situation?
The experts who watched the whole deceleration process through live cameras were almost all frowning.
Even if they are competitors, those who engage in technology are relatively pure. Most of them still don't want to see accidents in such an important task. In this case, tension is inevitable.
They know how hard it is to do this by using Mars to decelerate. So after seeing that the space station combination has really successfully entered the orbit of Mars, even if they are confused, it can't prevent them from paying homage to this success.
But at this time, they finally understood why the infinite gravitation group was so generous that they could watch the Mars landing mission through live cameras.
"So you mean that even if you can see how they do it now, you can't solve the technical problem?" After hearing the report from the chief expert of the space agency, an official of the United States rolled his eyes and asked.
They all put down their business and came here to watch the live broadcast with them, so as to see if they could see some useful technologies from it!
Now the experts here actually tell them that even if they can understand what the relevant technology used by the infinite gravitation group is, they can't do it. It's hard to imagine how hard he is to accept it!
"Yes! We all understand the technology they use in theory, but there is so much work to be done to transform theory into reality!
Of course, we don't mean that we can't do such a technology, but the problem is that we need at least many years to tackle the corresponding technology, and we need unlimited funding for scientific research.
So now my answer is that even if we know the principle of this technology for a while, we can't operate like the infinite gravitation group! " The chief expert of the old US space agency spread his hands.
After hearing his explanation, the government representatives sent by the old US government couldn't help looking at other experts in the conference room to see if they had any different opinions. But obviously, the result was very disappointing to them, and a large number of experts also supported their own views.
They can't lie at this time. It's not when they do research funding application reports on Capitol Hill, and they can draw big cakes. What we see today should be truthful. Otherwise, if the government misjudges, they will be guilty.
"We in the United States of America are also a space power, how can we be reduced to even a private company! This is a disgrace Another US government representative couldn't help but curse.
"Do we have nothing to do with it?" The government representative who asked the question did not pay attention to the complaint of his peers and asked helplessly after a twitch.
This question made the experts in the conference room look very ugly, because this question is really heart-catching. Of course, they know how far the technical level gap between them and the infinite gravity group is.
"If we want to reach the technology level of the space station that we just saw from the infinite gravitation group, we can only work hard under the support of sufficient R & D funds as I said just now. Otherwise, according to our current funding and treatment, it is very difficult for us to make a breakthrough in a short time!
What's more, as all of you here know, the space station combination technology of the infinite gravitation group that we are seeing now will soon be eliminated by the infinite gravity group, because it is obviously more in line with their company's future plans to colonize Mars by using spacecraft to travel between earth and Mars.
So if the government wants to overtake on a curve, it will give us more research funds to the space agency. With money, we can recruit more experts and let relevant companies cooperate with us in the research of related technologies! "
The chief expert can only turn the core of the problem back to the funding, otherwise what can he say? In this money oriented country, it's useless to say nothing without money. In fact, he is pessimistic about whether the United States of America can catch up with the technical level of the infinite gravitation group.
Because even if they have enough funds to start the related technology research, will infinite gravitation group wait for them in the same place? Obviously that's impossible. It's very difficult to catch up with their current technology.They don't have a national system in the United States, and their space agency can't study and solve any technology on their own like the infinite gravitation group. They just put forward design standards and requirements for many related technologies, and then let relevant companies do it by themselves.
The interests involved are enough to make companies haggle with each other, and their R & D expenditure may be at least four times that of infinite gravity group. He doesn't know whether his government can allocate large-scale funds to himself all the time. It's useless to think too much about it.
When he heard him bring up this topic again, the representatives of the old US government shut up. They couldn't even do the technology that was going to be phased out, and there was no ceiling on the funding. Even if they agreed, the taxpayers would not be able to pass it.
A country can't afford a company. If it gives too much money, it's hard for taxpayers to believe that their money is spent on scientific research.
Not only are they seriously discussing the technical level of the infinite gravitation group, but also the space agencies of other countries and some space companies are also having a heated discussion. However, it is similar to the scene in the conference room of the old US space agency. Everyone is desperate about the technical gap between the infinite gravitation group and the unlimited gravity group.
