Not just guests sitting in the heart of Asia.

At the same time, almost all people in the Eastern Eight Time Zone in the northern hemisphere saw the bright light hanging in the night.

On the outskirts of the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration, Lili stood on the balcony, drew her hands on the windowsill, and stared at the sky with eyes.

Probably last night, the elder brother named Academician Lu sent her a message saying that if she stood on the windowsill at seven o'clock tonight, she would see very, very beautiful fireworks.

Although it was almost seven o'clock and there was still no movement in the sky, Lili still believed that the big brother who was so good would not lie to himself.

Time was getting closer, just when she raised her little hand and rubbed her sour eyes, and when she was a little sleepy at first, a bright light curtain opened in the air.

Looking at the dream-like light, the little girl froze slightly, then jumped up in excitement, and the sleepiness in her heart was swept away instantly.

"Tail, tail, come out and see!"

Hearing the sound coming from the balcony, the tail of the apron came out of the room and looked at Lili softly.

"What's wrong, Lili."

"There and there," blinking innocent big eyes, a small white-like hand dangling at the sky, the girl's face was filled with joy and excitement, "Look, look, it's Aurora ! "

Looking up at the colorful curtain of light in the sky, the tail was slightly stunned, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

"What a nice view……"

Although she can't understand perfectly, what kind of existence is beauty.

But deep in her heart, she still couldn't help but have the idea of ​​wishing this moment to be eternal ...

...

A small restaurant in the suburbs of Jinling.

Like most dormants, Director Li is no stranger to the weird holiday. At this time, he always took the "hometown" who was also a dormant, and found a place to drink and brag together.

Originally, he planned to call Luzhou and Wang Peng this time, but unfortunately Lu Zhou went to Asia Heart as a special guest. Wang Peng couldn't come because of work. In the end, this wine table was only The two lonely old men left drinking alone, looking lonely.

With two glasses of wine under his stomach, Director Li was talking about the grand occasion of controllable fusion ignition, and the fellow sitting with him drinking, suddenly narrowed his eyes and raised his head, looking at the light in the sky.

"What is that thing?"

Raising his head slowly, Director Li took a glance in that direction and replied straightforwardly.

"do not know."

The old man sitting opposite the wine table laughed and laughed and said, "Fuck, you old man was a leader in R & D until a hundred years ago. I asked you what you didn't know."

"I'm not Tinker Bell, you ask the person named Lu," took a sip of liquor, Director Li looked up at the sky, smashed his lips, and suddenly said, "Speaking of today is the day of fire."

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Most of them are made by Academician Lu," Director Li said with a grin, and took it for granted. "Aurora appears in temperate zones, aside from the once-in-a-lifetime spectacle, naturally it is always not Most likely. "

...

At a time when the entire Pan-Asian cooperation was in a jubilant festive atmosphere, the second-generation controllable fusion experimental reactor base of East Asia Power, far from the moon, was busy and tense at this moment.

Ignition has succeeded!

Huge energy has also been projected into the earth's atmosphere through high-power laser arrays. Gas molecules ionized by the laser have formed a bright aurora at the edges of the atmosphere, and this is the gift of East Asia Power to the people of the world.

However, although they have completed the historic ignition, no one dares to stop at the workstation at hand to celebrate.

After all, for a mature experimental reactor, ignition is only the threshold, and later things are the key.

That is, stable operation of the reactor is maintained.

Standing in front of the console, Xie Tian's eyes stared at the data on the holographic screen, standing still like a sculpture, even though the parameters of the reactor were maintained in a stable interval, he was afraid to There is a slight slack.

After all, the plasma running at a temperature of up to 10 billion, not to mention searching the entire solar system, or even looking for another 20 or 20 light years outside the solar system, may not be able to find a flame with such a terrible temperature.

If it were not under the restraint of a magnetic field, this terrifying energy would be compressed within the size of a fist, and it would still be free to expand, I am afraid that half of the moon will be engulfed in the boiling energy.

Not to mention the Guanghan city next door.

"It seems that the reactor is in a good condition," Jia Siyuan walked beside Xie Tian, ​​glanced at the parameters of the beating on the holographic panel, and then said, "You can take a rest and change it here for me."

Xie Tian shook his head, and did not dare to leave the holographic panel for a moment.

"The experiment is a while away and it's not time for me to rest."

It took East Asia Electric Power a full year to represent its fellow citizens on the planet and win the trust of the citizens of Guanghan City. If he fails this trust, not only will his conscience be unsatisfactory, but the sense of responsibility in his heart will not let him go.

Probably guessing what this old friend was thinking, Jia Siyuan stopped persuading and just stood here with him.

At this moment, the staff member sitting in front of the console not far away said suddenly.

"The proportion of fuel in the reaction chamber has dropped to 13.7%. Do you open the gate and continue to import fuel?"

The moment he heard this sentence, the tight expression on Xie Tian's face suddenly relaxed, and a hanging heart finally relaxed.

So far, a round of ignition experiments is considered to be half completed.

When the fuel in the reaction chamber drops to 10%, the core temperature will gradually drop to a safe value, and the fusion reaction will naturally stop.

The next task is to shut down the reactor.

The work of this department is not a challenge, keeping an eye on the parameters on the holographic panel, Xie Tian decisively ordered.

"Connect the heat sink to the core heat conduction port! Open the core trap and set it to standby mode to prepare! Weaken the restraint magnetic field in batches!"

With a series of orders issued, the staff sitting in front of the console operated the instrument in an orderly manner, shut down the reactor, and conducted the remaining heat to the ground through the thermal rod.

Looking at the temperature indicator that has returned to the safe value, Jia Siyuan standing next to him, stretched a pleasant smile on his face.

"It's finally done."

"Yeah," Xie Tian followed with a smile, and said easily, "When we report this good news to Academician Lu, we can celebrate well here!"

After all, this is a landmark moment.

From this moment on, human civilization is truly in control of the power of fusion, and the most abundant treasures in the Earth-Moon system are contained in it.

Everyone standing here made history at this moment.

Even if not everyone's name is remembered by history, this does not prevent them from being proud and proud of their achievements.

Not to mention, today is an extraordinary festival in itself ...
