Is it possible to make this "Oasis II" inflatable inflatable space experiment module dock with our space station during orbital operation? Zou Huanyi, who has been looking at the model of the "Oasis II" inflatable space experiment cabin, proposed such an idea.

Hearing this idea, everyone froze for a moment, and then began to discuss. But while discussing, everyone's eyes were also on Qin Xinghe.

Everyone knows that the biggest problem with this kind of thinking is still in the aerospace department. As for Wu Hao and the others, if there is such a good opportunity, they will definitely not refuse it.

For Wu Hao, the docking with the space station is what they have always hoped for, but there has been no response from the aerospace authority, which also makes this plan sink into the sea.

Originally, he had given up hope, but Zou Huanyi brought it up again.

Hearing Zou Huanyi suddenly put forward such an idea, and feeling the eyes of everyone. Qin Xinghe smiled wryly, then shook his head.

"Any spacecraft docking in orbit has risks, not to mention the experimental 'Oasis II' inflatable inflatable space experiment module, which uses many new technologies, including docking. Whether it will affect or even bring danger to our space station in the future, none of us know now.

Regarding this idea, Xiao Wu and the others have actually applied to us several times, but at present the bureau has quite different opinions on this idea, and it is difficult to establish a unified consensus at present.

I think it's better to let Xiao Wu and the others do it themselves first, and it won't be too late to start when the technology is really mature. "

Although Qin Xinghe said so, everyone knew the implication in his words, which was obviously a tactful refusal. Although what Qin Xinghe said had some truth, everyone still felt sorry for the premature death of such a good idea.

Zou Huanyi sighed and didn't say anything more. This idea was originally a brainstorm. Since the two parties have been in contact before and have come to a conclusion, then he should not insist on it. Especially in front of so many people, if you speak out again, you will be too incapable of being a human being.

In fact, it doesn't matter, there will be more opportunities for cooperation in the future. Besides, the effect of docking with our manned spacecraft is the same. Wu Hao helped Qin Xinghe with a smile, then changed the subject and said, "Everyone, this way please, the one shown here is a deep space probe designed by ourselves."

Oh, after hearing Wu Hao's introduction, everyone gathered around the platform, looking at the strange model of the deep space probe hanging above the platform.

This deep space probe model has a rather peculiar shape. It is different from the sun edge deep space probe released by our country earlier, and the umbrella shape of those boundary probes in film and television dramas.

The deep-space detector suspended in mid-air above the booth also came out of two parts, connected by a long truss support rod in the middle.

At the front end of the truss, it is mainly its energy system, navigation control system, and various detection equipment and instruments.

The first is the energy system, which is the most important part of the deep space probe. Because the flight distance is relatively long, the sunlight it receives is relatively weak, so the efficiency of solar panels alone must be somewhat low. At present, most of the deep space probes that have been launched in the world are driven by nuclear batteries. Generate electricity.

One advantage of this kind of nuclear battery is that it is relatively stable and has a relatively long working time. The disadvantages are that the technology is difficult, the cost is high, and there is radiation. But in the universe, this little radiation is nothing. As for the high cost, such a large project, this little cost is nothing. It is the technology in this area that is really stuck in the prosecution of countries. At present, the cutting-edge technology in this area is mastered by Laomi, and it is strictly blocked and controlled. Although our country has also conquered this technology, it just started late, and there must be a certain gap compared with Lao Mi.

Although Wu Hao and the others are also equipped with an isotope temperature difference battery on the "Wangshu" intelligent lunar surface inspection vehicle, the main technology comes from the scientific research institutes in the aerospace system, although Wu Hao and the others have improved the original technology . However, the performance improvement brought about by such improvements is still relatively limited.

The main function of the isotope thermoelectric battery on the "Wangshu" intelligent lunar surface inspection vehicle is not directly used to start and supply the operation of the entire vehicle, but to serve as a backup power supply and emergency power supply. In addition, the phenomenon of continuous heating of radioisotope batteries can also be used to keep the instruments and equipment on the "Wangshu" intelligent lunar surface inspection rover warm during the long moon night.

Therefore, it is still a little difficult to directly drive such a deep space probe according to their current technology.

But in the face of the complex cosmic environment, a stable and long-term power supply system is necessary, and the isotope thermoelectric battery is the best choice. Therefore, at the top of this deep space probe, two isotope thermoelectric batteries are designed and installed.

The function of the isotope thermoelectric battery on the intelligent lunar surface inspection rover of "Wangshu" is the same. The main function of these two thermoelectric batteries is to provide long-term stable power output to ensure that after the main power supply system fails, the detector It can also rely on these two isotope thermoelectric batteries to maintain normal operation.

In order to make up for the insufficient performance of the two isotope thermoelectric batteries, the researchers equipped the deep space probe with a huge solar sail.

The technology of solar sails is actually not new, because this technology was proposed as early as the 1970s.

As the name suggests, the solar sail has the same principle as the sail of a sailboat, which is to use the sun to power the solar sail, and then propel the entire probe to fly forward.

Of course, here is the use of light pressure generated by sunlight. It's just that the spacecraft cannot take off from the ground because the light pressure generated by sunlight has very little thrust on the spacecraft and the existence of air resistance.

But in space where there is no air resistance, this small thrust can still provide an acceleration of about 10e-5 to 10e-3g for a solar sail with sufficient sail area.

The solar sail designed by the researchers for their deep space probe is very huge, reaching nearly 800 square meters when fully unfolded, which is considered a colossus in space. What kind of concept is this? After unfolding, it is equivalent to the size of two basketball courts.
