The central control cabin is not too big or small, which can accommodate nearly twenty people. It is slightly crowded. Even so, everyone still doesn't feel that it is small.

As a spacecraft, there is only one of the six main cabins here, which is already very large.

The entrance to the control cabin is a platform.

The platform has an obvious mechanical structure. It seems that there is something hidden inside, as well as various indicator lights, about 1.5 meters in diameter, up to the waist, embedded in the ground.Next to it is a console, which can be judged from the button partition and text mark, which is the button that controls which compartment.

The others all found a relatively convenient location and watched Chen Mo walk over curiously.

"This is the energy source of the aircraft."

Chen Mo pressed a button and entered the fingerprint and password information.

In an instant, the bright silver metal cover on the top of the platform spread out like a turbofan, and a transparent glass cylinder with the thickness of a calf slowly rose.

Both ends of the glass column are fixed by a complicated mechanical structure, like the two poles of a battery, filled with a transparent faint blue liquid, and in the middle of the liquid, everyone can see a lavender polyhedral crystal the size of a goose egg. The crystal is thick and thin by a thumb. The tube is fixed, together with both ends, looks like a battery.

And this kind of "battery", there are a total of eight, arranged in a circle in the platform.

"This is the energy battery." Chen Mo said.

There is no need to hide, some things, when aeroplanes and ion engines appear, it's time to be announced.

When the aerospace plane was being developed, he thought about when these technologies would be shown to others.

"impossible."

Several experts lost their voices almost simultaneously.

How many crystals the size of an egg can provide power for such a huge airplane?

impossible.

The existence of this kind of thing is beyond the scope of their current knowledge.

If Chen Mo said it was a small nuclear fusion reactor that provided energy, their response might not be that big.Because Chen Mo has successfully studied controlled nuclear fusion, it is technically feasible to miniaturize the controlled nuclear fusion reactor.

Now Chen Mo told them that this crystal, which is not big enough for a fist, is the energy source for the ion engine.

It sounds too exaggerated, too incredible.

"Academician Chen, isn't this a joke?" Yang Wei obviously didn't believe it.

It's not that he suspects Chen Mo, but that all of this is too unbelievable and completely subverts their perception.

This kind of thing currently only exists in movies, not even in theory.

"It's really a bit magical." Chen Mo didn't care about everyone's questioning eyes: "But it's a fact. These'batteries' are the energy for the aircraft."

"Crazy crazy."

Hearing what Chen Mo said surely, several experts couldn't accept it.

Here today, they refreshed their worldview.Whether it is an ion engine or various other technologies, these are things that shouldn't appear now.

He was wondering whether Chen Mo was talking crazy or he was dreaming.

If there were such energy sources, what would the world be like?Human development will accelerate for decades.

"This is a new element element crystal that has undergone high-energy transformation. It has specificity. Under the catalysis of strong light, it can radiate high-energy beta particles. The radiated particles increase with the increase of light intensity, so it can be used to control Power generation."

new element?

With this explanation, everyone on the court was silent.

The new element means that the current knowledge is an unknown blank for its understanding.

No one thinks that their current periodic table contains all the elements of the universe. The universe is so big and there are too many unknown substances. They may not even recognize one percent of them. It is not uncommon for them to have a special element.

The people on the field are all scientific researchers, and they are very quick to accept new things. Chen Mo's explanation made everyone's excitement a little slow, but they were still full of doubts and disbelief.

"Can this substance replace controlled fusion as an energy source?"

"No."

Chen Mo shook his head.

"As far as the current laws of physical cognition are concerned, energy is conserved. This kind of crystallization is transformed, and the internal atoms are in a critical state of excitation. Under the stimulation of strong light, it can radiate high-energy particles because it absorbs a lot of energy in the transformation. The bright light only serves as a catalyst.

We can imagine this new element as a kind of energy storage material, it just releases the absorbed energy.After the energy is released, it loses its function and becomes a waste battery.

There is also a limitation. The elemental crystals of this element cannot be too large, and the energy they can absorb is also limited. Once the energy is overloaded, it is useless."

Chen Mo briefly introduced the characteristics of this new element to everyone. In order to study these elements, the company's electricity bill was hundreds of millions every month, but Zhao Min saw the data and said he was abnormal when he saw the data.

For these few crystals, he went to Science Island and used the ring of controlled nuclear fusion to generate electricity. The cost was not that terrible.

The experts on the field looked at each other, including the materials experts.Materials experts have been exposed to many magical materials, but this element is beyond the scope of his knowledge.

Although everyone has doubts, they still suspect that Chen Mo is false, but because of Chen Mo's authority, they can only temporarily suppress the doubts in their hearts.Because there are too many things in the technology that Chen Mo is studying, they don't understand, it doesn't mean that Chen Mo doesn't understand either.

The new element is unknown to any of them.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Chen Mo turned his head, closed the platform of the energy battery, and returned to the original appearance.

Without his password and instructions, no one can get the battery in the plane unless the plane is taken apart.

"How do you use beta particles to convert into electricity?"

"This reactor contains a thermoelectric conversion system made of a new material. The new material can absorb beta particles and heat energy and convert it into electrical energy."

Chen Mo patted the control platform.

"Theoretically, it can absorb all high-energy electrons radiated by radioactive elements. But the radiation of radioactive elements is uncontrollable and fixed. The difference is that the high-energy electrons radiated by the elemental crystals of this new element can be controlled by laser catalysis. "

hiss……

It is another content that is not in their knowledge reserve.

This question is over again.

Especially the materials experts, watching Chen Mo at this time is more eager than watching the Miss World champion. If he can, he doesn't mind having a good chat with Chen Mo, he can be a student.

After visiting the aeroplane, a group of people came out of it, still in a trance, and the shock has not faded.

Chen Mo knew everything about them. After a lap, he received too many new information and new technologies, and they were all brand-new knowledge points.

Let alone the value of this aircraft, the new elements of the battery are already priceless.There are also reactors that use high-energy electrons to generate electricity, ion engines, and many unknown technologies and new materials.

The experts on the field feel like they have lived a lifetime in vain.

Any kind of technology is beyond their imagination.

This is not an airplane, but a treasure trove of technology.

The value of all the technologies they studied is less than the value of a technology contained in this aircraft.

Now there is only one last doubt.

Can this plane fly?

If it can fly, it will prove that all the technologies Chen Mo said are true and feasible.

Any one of the technologies inside can cause a 10-magnitude earthquake in the science and technology circle. If all the technologies of this aircraft are exposed, wouldn't it be that Mars hit the earth?

After everyone left the aeroplane, they all looked at Chen Mo together.

They are eager to watch the plane test flight, but they are the team sent to observe. They are guests. Chen Mo says what they will do next, not that they can see what they want.

"Next, get ready for a test flight." Chen Mo said to the Mo Girl beside him.

Today's mission was originally a test flight. This expert team just came to visit. Now the weather outside is good, which is a good time for a test flight.
