Super technology leader

Meriken, Space Agency Roundtable Conference Hall.

It has been raining outside, and the atmosphere in the conference hall is not harmonious.

In other words, waiting for news.

Understanding Wang was called out of the bed in the middle of the night, saying that he was asked to watch some space launch or Tianxia's space launch.

He is busy day by day, so there is no time to take care of this. This should be the responsibility of the space agency.

If he, the president, pays attention to this every day, wouldn't he become the director of the space agency?

Then what is the real director of the space agency doing?

But today's matter really cannot be decided by a director of the space agency, because the director himself has been watched by people from the Ministry of Defense.

"Has the news come out?" an army general asked.

"It's coming, it's coming." Jim wiped his sweat.

As the director of the space agency, although he understands Wang’s side, he has been completing tasks and wants to bring everyone in the space agency to understand Wang’s side, but as the director, he is also competent and he is very interested. The space agency has a lot of funds.

As the director of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, he certainly paid attention to the live broadcast of the first flight of "Dart X", even if the synchronization time of Meriken was in the middle of the night.

But what he didn't expect was that when a group of aerospace scientists and engineers were staring at the technical details of data research, a group of military police surrounded this place, and then several generals came to represent the Ministry of Defense.

Come up and ask: "Tianxia's space fighters have all entered space orbit, why don't you give early warning?!"

A group of scientists, including Jim: "???"

The generals of the Ministry of National Defense didn't let them think too much, and immediately took control of a command hall, and then led several administrative and technical personnel from the NASA into the round table conference hall.

Seeing the bewildered faces of the scientists, Admiral John of the Space Army thought that they did not know the information launched by "Dart X", so he said in a tone that hates iron and steel, "As the staff of the space agency, you The information is less sensitive, Dave, show them the video."

"Yes!"

The young officer in military uniform ran to the front with his laptop, connected to the main computer in the office, and uploaded the video.

Originally, the aerospace scientists and engineers, as well as Jim, saw these people so nervous, they also became nervous, and they really thought they had missed some key space information.

At first glance, isn’t this the test flight video of "Dart X"?

It's still an edited version.

They couldn't even watch the live broadcast.

Just what did those generals just say?

Tianxia's space fighter?!

Don't be funny, it's just a spacecraft!

Although the technology is advanced, the whole body is the characteristic of spacecraft-the inability to make too random maneuvers in the sky and space, which consumes too much fuel.

As scientific researchers, they feel that they have an obligation to do some popular science for these big soldiers.

Several people wanted to say, but a thief with a relatively older grade quickly said: "My Excellency Generals, please let me clarify, this is not a space fighter, this is just a manned spacecraft..."

As a result, before he finished speaking, General John interrupted him and said, "Well, we are soldiers. We know what a weapon is better than you, and what has not yet become a weapon."

"Our X-37B can be an'orbital bomber.' This aircraft can naturally. Both aircraft have a load capacity of two tons. What X-37B can hold can also be loaded, including laser weapons. , Missiles, bombs."

"However, your Excellency, according to the design of'Dart X', it does not have the ability to maintain deterrence for a long time in orbit. The amount of electricity it stores is only enough for a few hours..."

The scientists wanted to explain something, but the generals didn't listen.

John waved his hand and said sternly: "Well, we are not here to listen to your scientific principles. What we want is whether you can prove that the maintenance is as simple as an airplane and can enter space anytime and anywhere. Really? Or is it another funny strategic hoax?"

"If it's true, find it for me!"

Scientists simply can't hold back soldiers, not to mention that the other party is still a general with soldiers, so they can only look for it.

So there was the previous scene.

These generals don't know what the data is, but as long as they know that there is a space plane that may be carrying a bomb floating above their heads, they will keep urging.

Even if "Dart X" has no hidden position at all, and even actively reports its position to all directions, it can't hold the generals from reminding them every few seconds.

Obviously for a few minutes, the generals felt as if they could not complete the task for several days.

"Found it," a scientist suddenly received the message and waved to the generals: "It is now on a 378 kilometers perigee and 402 kilometers apogee. The exact location... is passing over Meriken. "

"Boom—"

Admiral John's face was distorted when he heard the words, and he hit the conference table with a punch, "Shame, this is the shame of our Space Army!"

"If we also have..."

Before he finished his temper, the big screen in the conference room lit up, and the big head of Wang Wang appeared inside.

Being dragged up in the middle of the night, everyone else has dark circles under his eyes, but he has rare white circles under his eyes.

He was wearing pajamas, looking tired, frowning in a bad tone and asking: "What the hell is going on? Why did someone tell me that Tianxia's space fighter flew into space?"

Seeing this scene, no one else has reflected yet, John's furious expression immediately turned into frustration, and his attitude was very sincere to admit his mistake.

"Mr. President, this is my fault. If the Space Army also has space fighters and command of the space center, Tianxia's space fighters will not fly in Meriken's space."

When he said these words, John's face flushed, his face was full of regret, even his eyes were bloodshot, and there were tears overflowing, as if he was saying that he was extremely incompetent.

Understand that Wang felt completely energetic when he heard this, and he asked John loudly, "What did you say? Tianxia's space fighter is above us?"

"Yes, sir," John first admitted, and then explained: "But scientists say it is only carrying people, and there is basically no danger."

"Needless to say, no one knows spacecraft better than me. You can load people and bombs. That's a space fighter!"

Understanding Wang got excited, and he couldn't sleep at the thought of such a thing dangling over his head.

Then he mumbled a few words in a low voice. No one heard what he said, but he shouted: "Meeting, meeting, calling everyone up, meeting!"

"This can't go on, we must come up with a counterattack strategy!"

Knowing Wang's final word, he used the presidential privilege once, and the secret service personnel outside quickly moved. As long as the members of Congress in Washington, DC, all screamed, they were picked up by the black car and rushed towards Congress.

It's not that he made a fuss, but he is determined to go to the sun, he really understands space.

The domestic X-37B is called the "Orbital Bomber". It is actually a mini space shuttle. It is no different from the "Dream Chaser" mini space shuttle that has been carrying cargo before and has always wanted to manned.

At the beginning, they seemed quite advanced, but compared with "Dart X", it was rubbish.

The two models of mini-space shuttles are no different from what they say, in fact, they are no different from the general rocket launch, the same trouble, but the "Dart X" is different. It was pulled out from the hangar that day, immediately filled with fuel, and then directly from the runway. Take off, which is many times easier than they don’t know.

If it can come back safely, and can take off again for a little overhaul, without requiring it to complete the inspection and fuel replenishment within an hour, it will take off after a day, that would be quite scary.

Moreover, the place where it was designed and manufactured-Star Pilot Company, must find a way to sanction it and not let it continue to develop like that.
