Magi Craft Meister

On the morning of May 5, Jen woke up at his house in Penglai.

It is a quiet morning when the birds can only be heard.

Elsa is a village of Kaina with her real mother, Meine. Jen was the only human being on Penglai right now.

"Oh, well slept"

Father, are you awake?

Reiko, who sensed that Jen had awakened, opened her eyes and showed herself.

"Oh, I'm so tired."

"That's good."

"I'm going to start working on the ship today."

"Yes."

During the first month or so Jen was visiting a country of different ethnicities, he was conducting spacecraft prototyping and operational testing at the initiative of Lao Jun.

Today is the day to hear the report.

When Jen finished eating the breakfast Reiko had made for her, she headed to the institute.

In the vestibule, a 10-metre diameter spacecraft was placed.

"I saw it yesterday, but don't feel big about this"

It is an almost spherical spaceship. The passengers are the same size as Little Craftsman (Smith). It is a mini size golem with a height of 40 cm, in the 'Astro' series.

Because of the size of a quarter of Jen, we were able to save time and materials when prototyping.

"Dear Master (My Lord), let me now briefly explain how it has been so far"

"Oh, I asked for it"

In the command room of the Penglai Island Institute, Jen is carefully briefed by Mr. Lao.

"At first, it was a sixteenth size, so it was prototyped in a size for mini craftsmen (Smith)."

The mini craftsman (Smith) is 10 cm tall.

'The spacecraft, 2.5 metres in diameter, could be built in two days, albeit in its first attempt. We used it to do a lot of tests.'

It took Jen four days to build up the know-how for the spherical spacecraft he advocated, he said.

"It's the best way to stay stable."

"Hmm? What do you mean?

'Yes. If it's a space of gravity, the straight direction of lead is uniquely determined, so the horizontal plane is also determined by itself. But when it comes to space...'

"Oh well. You don't work enough gravity to make it a standard."

'You're right. Nevertheless, the prototype spacecraft operates only within the gravitational zone of Ars'

I performed the data obtained from it and washed out the problem.

Without a reference point, it becomes difficult to stop when starting a rotating motion.

He was Jen, who once remembers his failure to launch the geostationary satellite Satellite.

'This seems particularly important when operating multiple spacecraft'

"Oh, sure."

It is the sharing of reference points that is problematic when acting as a fleet.

The direction of travel can be determined, but if the reference plane is cluttered for each spacecraft, the orientation is not aligned.

Assuming there is an instruction from the flagship to "change course to thirty degrees up".

Of course, it is also a matter of navigation, so you should decide on the object to be used as a reference, but it is still not preferable for each spacecraft to have a different 'direction'.

'The first reference plane will be based on the planet Ars' public orbital plane '

In the absence of any particular instruction, the plane parallel to the circle (precisely the ellipse) in which Ars rotates is taken as the reference.

"Secondly, if you act on the fleet, it will be based on the direction of the flagship."

"I guess that will happen."

When it comes to steering, the flagship will be rolling to the left of all ships.

'In this way, we needed to set a lot of new standards for action in three dimensions'

"I see. You'll see."

'It's a space lacking in what serves as a reference, but because we set the standard in this way, navigation has become easier. Nevertheless, it is still only within this selan solar system,'

"No, that's good. I'm not going outside the solar system all of a sudden."

'I'm afraid so. So, as the next stage, it's a question of launch and landing'

It means shaking off gravity and entering space, and re-entering the atmosphere.

'Satellite 001', and data when 'Falcon 1' re-entered the atmosphere, were helpful in this regard.

"Of course, it is possible to use the Force Generator. But in addition, we wanted to be able to operate as efficiently as possible. '

"Oh, I think that's right"

For entering space, Jen has been cautious since the failure of 'Satellite 001'.

"For postural control, we also have a horizontal instrument that utilizes Ars geomagnetism. Near Ars is valid enough '

Inheriting Jen's prudence, Old Man also took double triple safety precautions.

"All passenger conversations use built-in Magnetic Communicator (Manacam)."

Even in a vacuum, there's nothing wrong with that.

"As a precaution during re-entry of the atmosphere, we have equipped ourselves with a dedicated" Wind Avoidance Junction Generator "and" Super Powerful Physical Barrier Generator (Barrier Projector) ".

Wind avoidance junctions are so far unable to reverse air molecules at speeds faster than Mach 3.

The physical barrier generator (barrier projector) protects the hull from overheating by insulated compressed air. At the same time, air collisions are mitigated by wind avoidance junctions.

"The 2.5-meter prototype spacecraft with these was a great success,"

"Oh well!

"The first time we just went through the stratosphere and landed again, but there was no problem at all. The second time we circled Ars at geostationary satellite altitude. This was also a great success. '

"That's good news."

"I took this and started building a quarter-sized prototype. In parallel, we also proceeded to retrieve data on vessel 1, confirming limit values such as maximum speed tests and acceleration tests. '

The maximum velocity was approximately 300 km/s and the maximum acceleration was 20 Gs.

"That's amazing for a prototype...... well done"

"Thank you, Master (My Road)"

"So, that's the one with that quarter size in the front yard, huh?

"Yes, it is."

And you report the test results. [M]

"Power performance, kinematic performance is fine,. But there was one problem during the test flight. '

"What's that?

"It was outside the stationary orbit, but space dust, is that it? It collided with a very small float, and the outer shell was scratched. '

"I see..."

Even though it's space, it's not a complete vacuum.

Even tiny meteorites and tiny cosmic dust can be lethal to a flying spacecraft at superfast speeds.

"Barriers would be essential in the universe."

"Yes, that's already"

Agreed, old man.

"But as it stands, we lack strength."

"Right..."

Speaking of speeds of 300 kilometres per second, on the ground, it exceeds Mach 880.

Even the highest output of Reiko's special weapon, Magicanon, is Mach 80. If they crash at more than ten times that speed, they will be highly destructive, even if they are tiny cosmic dust.

"Hmmm......"

Jen thinks a lot about how to increase the strength of the barrier.

The simplest part is layering. A barrier generator (barrier projector) is twice as strong as a barrier generator. A barrier generator is three times as strong as a barrier generator.

But not very smart.

"To be more efficient..."

I think about it, Jenn. But that face looks happy. It's the face that I can't help but enjoy thinking about something new.

And Jen comes up with one idea.

"That's right! … it's the same configuration as avoiding the wind, why don't we put up a line of material avoidance"

'I see, in principle, that's possible'

Because the wind avoidance junction moves air molecules, Jen thought that we should make the subject a bigger object.

But Jen comes up with an even more outrageous idea.

"... wait, huh? If you want to move an object... there's a portal."
