Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

And no matter how surprised the overseas media and gourd eaters were, the ark standing in the underground laboratory was totally shocked by his own little Egg.

Saying it was a bumblebee might be a little incorrect.

To be precise, what he saw in front of him was a model of a bumblebee. The knocked smooth, smooth aluminum shell emits a bright metallic glow under the incandescent lamps of the laboratory ceiling, and the mechanical construction under the streamlined shell perfectly fits the complex aesthetics.

Although not colored, because the restoration is so high, the impression of the Transformers movie is quite impressive in the ark, but it was recognized at a glance.

Though this large maneuver is almost complete, there is still material left in the lab, and there is no intention for the industrial robot against the wall to stop at all.

The eight robotic arms, like octopus, flexibly flipped over the aluminum alloy plate in their hands, and the "in hand” file and hammer clanked and rubbed on it, and the skilful movement was not known how many times faster than when it first got these new toys.

With an algorithm similar to neural network learning, Ai can quickly apply it to the extreme as long as she adapts to a tool. This application is not confined to the control of plasma alone; it is clear that mechanical processing and automatic assembly are also within its means.

Just...

Ark: “What are you... doing? ”

A moving robotic arm stopped.

The drone floating next to it swayed left and right, like it was crooked.

Soon after, Ark's phone received a message from Em.

[Didn't the owner ask Em what kind of body she wanted? I didn't want to bother the owner, so I did it myself. (* ° ▽ ° *)

Ark: “…”

[Well, isn't Em's new body cool! (๑ • ㅂ •)✧]

[Praise me, hurry up, praise me, I'll take the master for a ride! (≥) ≤ *) o]

Well, the ark admitted it was pretty cool.

But...

What's the use of this?

I didn't want to blow this guy's motivation, but the ark couldn't help but ask, "How are you going to fit yourself in? ”

Eight robotic arms slammed.

After a while, a message popped up on the phone screen.

[Can't you go in? Σ (° △ ° |||) ●]

Ark: “… you can't. ”

Although this model does a good job...

But anyway, robots are not designed to fit in.

Not to mention the lack of motors and servomotors, not even control chips and signal receivers. Didn't this guy ever consider where to put his own program?

This commonsense thing, the ark doesn't even know how to spit.

After a long time, a series of bubbles popped up on the phone, and the robotic arm on the side of the wall threw away the alloy plate in the hand, draining it off the ground.

[…… QAQ]

Looking at the three-letter message, the ark sighed in its heart.

This guy...

Is he retarded?

Even children should be able to distinguish between film and reality.

“Anyway, stop playing and help me work. ”

Not even comfort people, let alone comfort artificial intelligence.

Instead of plunging into the depressed Egg, the ark went straight to the side of wreck number three, reached out and unraveled the plastic cloth on it, and went back to the control terminal of the industrial robot.

With the newly equipped ark, I finally didn't have to hold my pliers and climb in clumsily to take samples.

With this little Egg and the help of these eight industrial robots, he easily completed the demolition of Wreck Three.

In fact, it didn't take much effort to remove it.

Although the material of the enclosure is robust, it is impossible for the designer of this equipment to say that it is welded to an indestructible structure, like the armor of the ship, given the maintenance considerations.

Relatively, engines located behind the ship or in the abdomen are safer sites.

Of course, that's just relative.

The wreckage was neatly and neatly split into three sections, and the canoe's eyebrows twitched vigorously as he looked at the mess inside.

The situation was worse than he had imagined, and that enormous impact not only totally destroyed its parts, but also the internal structure.

For example, the metal catheter whose root is squashed on the inside wall can only be roughly inferred from existing knowledge and brain holes, something similar to a temperature exchanger, or a feed port for a plasma engine.

Connected after the crushed catheter is a special flat cylindrical slot structure.

“Electrodes… Heat exchange… This is the ionization chamber? Is that Hall's thruster? ”

Staring at the image taken through the industrial camera, the canoe, leaning against the chair, touched his chin and fell into contemplation.

Behind this empty slot structure, a vent shaped like a conical bottle is attached.

Backward, the bowl-shaped structure at the very end of the wreckage.

Through an analysis of the internal structure, the ark made bold assumptions.

The engineer who designed the device probably took a rather avant-garde approach to design… or rather a common practice in his civilization.

That is, the ionization chamber was removed individually and the vent from which the plasma was emitted was designed as a hall propulsion unit, integrated behind the ionization chamber.

By heating and applying voltage, the ionization chamber ionizes the propellant that completes the vaporization, which in turn forms a high-temperature plasma while expanding in volume, while being fed into the "hall propulsion unit” connected behind the ionization chamber, that is, a nozzle that is similar in length to a conical bottle.

Through special designs, these hall propulsion units are able to process high-temperature plasma in the ionization chamber more efficiently and eject them outside the engine.

Meanwhile, the midxing device integrated on the tail rectifier loop (which I took the shielding word for) neutralizes the ejected plasma plume to prevent the ejected plasma from being absorbed back into the ionization chamber...

Theoretically, as long as the electrical output is large enough and the plasma emits fast enough, the power of the engine can be increased indefinitely until the critical current, ionization chamber pressure, and temperature of the superconducting magnet are reached.

Depending on the crack direction of those conduits, it can even be inferred that before being “knocked down", the pilot of the spacecraft performed some kind of dangerous avoidance operation, placing the power of the engine under overload and holding it for some time.

Looking at that crushed catheter, the ark was caught in contemplation.

I always feel like the secret behind this system is getting worse and worse...

Identifying the engine's external working parts made the rest of the job easier, and by comparing the images Ai captured, the ark quickly found the engine's "fuel tank” - that is, the location of the storage work.

But then again, where did the electricity come from?

Whatever the design of the Hall thrusters, the thrust provided per kilowatt is not too high, even if this higher civilization has achieved a rather exaggerated magnitude of the rate of ejection of the plasma plume, so that its thrust breaks through μN, mN, and eventually even N magnitude, in order to achieve an acceleration of at least 1G for ships over 100 tons, the electricity required is also a rather frightening number.

At a minimum, the output of electric energy must also reach the magnitude of MW.

Such a huge power consumption is obviously not what ordinary batteries can afford.

At least some lithium-sulfur battery is definitely not working.

Guess the energy storage unit should be not far from the fuel tank of the storage process, looking at the arcuate double layer structure that connects the fuel tank to the temperature exchanger, the ark always feels a little like something, but can't remember where to see it.

Yet at this moment, a crazy and impractical thought suddenly emerged from his head.

Is it…

Nuclear fusion?
