Chapter 77 Earth Star Port is online

Starport also has many styles, excluding the native super giant like Tolan Starport: it is messy and many parts are old technology, such as a large number of O'Neal-style cylindrical space stations at the center point, which generate artificial gravity by rotating along the main axis.

But the current artificial gravity field generator is stable and affordable. You can adjust the gravity as much as you like, but it only lacks the simplicity of history.

Earth is a small star port. In the simulation effect hologram, it is dominated by a round-shaped honeycomb space station, with a diameter of 3,000 meters at the upper bottom, a 500 meters at the lower bottom, and a total length of 5,000 meters. In theory, it is fine to stuff 1 million humans.

This is of course incomparable to Tolan's size, which accommodates a population of tens of billions, but it also has complete facilities, including customs centers, gift shops, hotels, etc., and a very distinctive airship hotpot restaurant, floating in the space to play hotpot on some dilapidated airships.

The four sides of the space station are not blocked, but are densely packed with docks like honeycombs, which can accommodate 5,000 small and medium-sized spacecraft. When self-driving tourists come, they can find an empty space to drive in, and they can provide services such as maintenance, supply, etc. The technicians and robots will do these well.

Next to the space station, there is also a row of large and giant docks, and the orientation can be adjusted at any time. Even if the Mickey Advent arrives, it can still be parked into the port.

The arena is on the other side, and you can see clearly from the observation deck on the top floor of Star Harbor. There is a racing track, a battle space, and several laps of spectators that can accommodate millions of spectators. These pipelines are also obstacles for racing competitions. The participating spacecraft will shuttle between the pipelines, which is very exciting.

The audience pipeline is connected to the space station, and the space station is also connected to the space elevator.

The 36,000-kilometer space elevator will hang from the synchronous track to a beach in the Maldives on the ground, where a ground reception station will be built with a teleportation booth, and you can go anywhere from Xinggang as soon as it lands.

"Are the drawings correct? Do you need to modify them?" asked Tolan foreman Mao Zhenfei.

This kind of large project not only uses generation technology, but also has many installation details and adjustments. A little track deviation will cause very terrible consequences.

"No, that's it." Lin Fang made the final decision. Nasenfei, as the governor of Star Port, also made a decision: "Comrade Tolan, work."

"Hey!" Mao Zhenfei shouted, and more than fifty construction ships started to move immediately, first the main space station.

"It's started to build!" The reporters on the photography spacecraft exclaimed, and audiences around the world were also excited. These spacecraft released a batch of frames for building the main body, and released so many miniature flight robots that were difficult to measure. They were busy in space and overlapped the main body at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This busy work has not been completed in an hour.

"Meow..." Mao Dabao yawned and said to Xiaoyu, Wang Xiao and the others: "You guys look at it, I'll take a moment." It jumped to the console and fell asleep.

On the other side of the Shenyun, Lin Fang had been lying on the captain's couch to read comics, Dong Mo Tonggong was reading magazines, and Wei Miao was playing with his mobile phone.

"How long will it take?" asked the exile, the three giants swung the bull's power, and they really regretted it coming up. However, the physicists were staring at them, and Nasenfei was very proud.

Although this is a super miracle, many viewers can't hold on, just like the previous live broadcast of the space station. They were excited at the beginning, but gradually they were hypnotized by the discussion between experts and hosts... Hurry up and dock!

It took another hour before the main space station was built, the artificial gravity field was started, and each dock of the honeycomb lit up.

"Hello, this is the Earth Star Port." The super management agent "Bee Bee" is online.

In the midst of human jubilation, the construction team continued to lay the pipes, and another hour later, the arena was completed.

Nasenfei rushed over with the exile at the first time, shuttled through the spectator pipelines, whistling silently in space. Wei Miao also started the Shenyun to race. Dong Mo Tonggong happily said: "It's true that there is an arena to be satisfied!" Lin Fang nodded: "Isn't it just 1 billion?"

Other spacecraft such as the Cat Group also joined. In addition to former International Space Station astronaut Rigi Andrew, the 500 students were as calm as an old monk.

"We see the completion of Star Port! The miracle of human history, the miracle of earth history!"

"Hello, the pearl of the earth!"

“So beautiful!”

Without giving reporters much time to sigh, the construction team will build a space elevator.

There are many styles of space elevators, some of which are conical structures, with the thickest synchronous tracks and gradually thinner up and down directions. The overall tension of this design will be the same everywhere; some are thick and straight structures, and the Earth bought this type of passenger and cargo channels.

The built space elevator is actually more than 36,000 kilometers because it also needs to have a part of the upper end. The upper end is above the synchronous track. If the movement speed is higher than the track speed, it will escape into space and pull the elevator upwards. However, the part below the synchronous track is falling to the ground, generating downward force, pulling the elevator downwards.

In this way, pulling up one end and pulling down the other end creates internal tension, making the elevator stagnant and suspended there.

"The space elevator is not built on the ground, it does not need a foundation." TV experts gushed, "It will not fall down, nor will it float away. We pray that it is best not to fall horizontally, Oh my God! The circumference of the earth's equator is 40,000 kilometers, and it will grow so much. Imagine! 40,000 kilometers is a big number, and it will take 32.6 hours to walk twice the speed of light. We are still curious, what kind of construction material is it?"

"Captain Zhen Spaceship, what material do you use?" Lin Fang happened to ask.

"It's something called Zhenjin (translation, closest to the earth's context)." Mao Zhenfei replied while directing the construction team to work.

The Toran people first built the arrival site of the elevator on the synchronous track, and then installed the upper and lower ends at the same time.

When the largest construction team lowered the rope and pulled it to the surface from another spacecraft at sub-light speed, the earthlings were shocked, 36,000 kilometers long! This vibrating rope could strangle the earth to death.

After a while, tourists in the Maldives were surprised to see a band-shaped thing hanging down from the sky. The wind could not blow it. It was firm and weirdly fixed there, just hanging to a position five meters above the ground beach, and the gravity could not do anything to it.

"Where is God!?" the TV expert shouted excitedly.

Too many viewers covered their mouths, widened their eyes, and were completely knocked out by incredible emotions.

"Success, success..." On the exile, the physicist jumped and shouted in a mad manner, "Physics is successful!"

"The moon is blessed now." Nasenfei laughed.

"Hey, don't forget who made the tides rise and fall on the earth." Lin Fang said on the Shenyun Ho.

Dong Mo Tonggong shook his head helplessly, "Why am I just spreading you bad people?"

"Birds of birds flock together," Lin Fang said again.

(Wei Miao: Where is my line?)

Then, the construction team began to process the 36,000-kilometer rope. It was simple. They placed a generator box every 1,000 meters, and placed a total of 360 elevators, and then generated an elevator. The same was true for the upper end. Then the synchronous track station was connected to the space station, and the ground reception station on the beach was built.
