The copy of the Apollo Program Training Camp was in 1969. If the blonde hadn't lie, he was fourteen years ago when the Apollo Program began.

If Zhang Heng remembers correctly, even the Nasa had not been formed at this time, but its predecessor, the National Aviation Advisory Committee (NACA), was established in 1915. In fact, he followed the blonde beauty to the laboratory. After meeting other interns and laboratory directors, Zhang Heng finally understood what the Lewis Flying Operations Laboratory was.

It is the third laboratory under Naca. It was originally named the Aircraft Engine Research Laboratory. It was established to solve the backward situation in the United States in engine manufacturing. In 1939, World War II broke out. Europe's liquid-cooled engines had speed and high advantages in combat compared to the United States' air-cooled engines. Some people with insight realized that the United States had a shortage of national-level engine research facilities, so they promoted Congress in 1940 to approve the proposal to build an engine research center near the Cleveland, Ohio airport.

The Aircraft Engine Research Laboratory was established in this context. It was renamed Lewis Flight Operations Laboratory in 1948 to commemorate the deceased director of the Naca Aviation Research Department, George W. Lewis, but its more well-known name is actually the Glen Research Center (renamed again in 1999), which is an important research institution for Nasa, specializing in the research of aerospace engines.

Although the transitional copy was forced to be opened by the system to deal with the bug caused by Zhang Heng, it did not completely deviate from the main copy of the Apollo Program Training Camp. Instead, he was given the identity of a graduate student in MIT and threw him into the Lewis Flying Operations Laboratory fourteen years ago. If nothing unexpected happens, he will return to the copy of the Apollo Program Training Camp after the suspension is over.

As for the result, of course, this is not stopped directly. He can solve the competitor in a static world, which is equivalent to passing the level in advance. However, judging from the previous prompt sound, because it cannot be determined whether he cheated, the system also compensated him with certain compensation while protecting other players.

Lewis Flying Force Laboratory is an important laboratory under Naca. The people working in it were all top scientists and engineers in the United States at that time. After Naca was disbanded, the focus of these experts also turned to aviation technology. Although Zhang Heng could not directly learn future aviation knowledge here, he could supplement the knowledge of physics, engineering and aerodynamics in advance.

Moreover, Lewis Flying Force Laboratory is right next to the airport in Cleveland, Ohio. Although he could not complete the main mission of looking at the earth from another angle in advance, if he was lucky, he could at least drive the plane to travel twice in the sky. The T-38 trainer for Apollo program training had not been developed at this time, but the predecessor, T-33, was introduced to flight training in the early 1950s.

The jet that Zhang Heng saw on the runway before was t-33.

However, before that, he had to solve a problem. The system gave him the identity of a graduate student at MIT, and soon Zhang Heng learned why Lewis Flying Operations Laboratory recruited a group of graduate students for internships, because Naca launched a hypersonic research engine program.

The x-15, directly uses a rocket-powered engine, with a maximum speed of Mach 6.72, close to six times the speed of sound, and a maximum flight altitude of 107.8 kilometers. It directly breaks out of the Carmen line and enters space. It is still the fastest manned aircraft for humans until the 21st century.

The R&D plan was officially launched, and Lewis Flying Operations Laboratory also participated in it. Zhang Heng and other MIT graduate students were recruited to assist laboratory engineers and scientists in conducting related research. However, the problem is that Zhang Heng, a master's degree, was paid by the system for phone bills. He hoped to learn relevant knowledge in the laboratory, but once he exposed that he had no foundation, the greater possibility was that he would be sent back to school directly.

And even if the situation develops in the best direction, he can still stay in the laboratory. With such heavy scientific research tasks, who would be willing to make up for him from scratch?

Before Zhang Heng could think of a countermeasure, the blonde beauty in charge of the manpower had already begun to assign this group of intern graduate students to the engineers in the laboratory. Of course, if the engineer had someone he wanted, he could also directly call him. Two of them should have had contact with some of the graduate students and directly picked out the person he wanted.

However, most people just told the blonde beauty about their needs and were waiting for manpower distribution, but Zhang Heng did not expect to see the face of a yellow man in it.

You should know that it is not later generations. In the United States in the 1950s, especially among top scientific research institutions, there are not many Asians, let alone judging from the other party's appearance, it is very likely that they are Chinese.

Therefore, Zhang Heng tried to ask the other party in Chinese, and there was a look of surprise on the latter's face, and he obviously understood Zhang Heng's question. However, Zhang Heng's current appearance has been systematically corrected, and the characteristics of Europeans and Americans are more obvious, so the Chinese engineer was a little surprised.

Zhang Heng had to speak again, "Hello, can I be your assistant?"

"What professional are you? I am doing research on impeller mechanical flow theory. I wonder if you are interested?"

"Economics, sophomore." Zhang Heng was ashamed that he could not hide such things. Instead of saying it after being assigned a task, it would be better to confess it now.

"……………” The other party was obviously shocked by this answer. He couldn't speak for a long time. He was not sure if this was American humor or invisible discrimination. After all, he has not been discriminated against for so many years in the United States.

"Sorry, I need to stay in the lab for some reasons, and I hope to learn some engineering knowledge if possible. If you really find it troublesome, I can also try my luck with someone else."

Because the above conversation was conducted in Chinese, and other people except the two did not understand, Zhang Heng was not worried about not listening to other people, and he was not too worried that the other party would tell others about his details, because Chinese people abroad basically have the attitude of being less than more.

However, if the other party refuses him, it will not be easy for him to keep slapping in the laboratory.

Fortunately, I don’t know if Zhang Heng’s fluent Chinese touched the other party, which made the other party feel a sense of intimacy in a distant foreign country. After hesitating for a moment, the man spoke again, with only one simple word, “Okay.”

Then he walked to the blonde beauty and asked Zhang Heng, plus another MIT female student assigned to him, who were his two assistants.

After the matter came to an end, he returned to the laboratory and stretched out a hand to Zhang Heng, "I don't seem to have introduced myself yet, Wu Zhonghua, Chinese."

"Zhang Heng." Zhang Heng also reported his real name, paused, and then added, "Chinese."

Note: Wu Zhonghua, Qian Xuesen from the Chinese aviation industry, graduated from MIT with a Ph.D. He worked in the Lewis Flying Operations Laboratory and founded the internationally recognized general theory of ternary flow of impeller machinery. He is a world-class scientist. Like many older generation scientists in that era, he gave up his high salary abroad and then took his wife to return from Europe to the name of traveling. Both the couple are the founders of China's aviation industry. However, at this time point in the real world, he has actually returned to China. He still writes about him. In addition to the plot needs, he also has a little selfishness. I hope more people can know these older generation scientists. In addition, the transition script is not the focus and will end soon. The focus is on the Apollo plan. (It makes an exception and it requires everyone to spend a few cents more. I hope that friends who read pirated copies can also see it.)
