C1157 Communication Satellites Are Going to be Launched
Not everyone knew how to fight, and they all had outstanding insight. From this point of view, as a veteran industrialized country, Cattle Country had a very deep foundation.
Cattle Country had a perfect war system. Once the war started, the people would immediately react. They knew what the various departments were going to do.
Just the mobilization of war had allowed them to learn a lot of knowledge.
After sending away the ambassador from the Silver Country, Qin Guan received the news and came to Navy Commander's division.
General Ye saw Qin Guan and said, "The people from Silver Country are looking for you to protest? It's best if we kick the ball to your side."
Hearing General Ye's words, Qin Guan smiled and said, "It's a small matter, General. What's the matter this time?"
"It's like this. Our experiment satellite No. 2 Dongfang Hong has decided to launch into the sky in the near future." General Ye said.
Hearing this, Qin Guan's face immediately lit up. "So fast?"
Communication satellites were the hardest of all satellites.
Ordinary satellites only needed to leave the atmosphere to reach a height of a few hundred thousand kilometers. If they flew in Outer Space, they would fall in a year and a half.
As for communication satellites, if they wanted to carry out the task of communication, the first thing they needed to do was to maintain stability. In Outer Space, the relative position of the Earth would not change. In other words, they needed to operate at the same time as the Earth.
As long as they had attended high school, this data could be calculated. 36,000 kilometers, that was the height from the Earth!
The height of synchronous satellites in space was quite high, almost equivalent to a tenth of the distance between Earth and the Moon!
It was very difficult to launch a satellite to such a height. At the same time, it was even more difficult to maintain this orbit. It required the hard work of domestic scientists, as well as an advanced level of control.
A miss of a millimeter could be described as a thousand miles. This could not be more apt to describe it.
For a long time, the computing technology in the country had been lagging behind. The base that was responsible for the satellite control mission, the computing tool that had been used for a long time, was a "obsolete" 320 computer!
This type of computer that was allocated to the control center in 1969 was a crystal tube computer developed by Han Country itself. This kind of computer only had a computing speed of 220,000 times per second. It was unreliable. It was obvious that it was lacking in many aspects.
For more than ten years, this kind of 320 computer that people called "old" had always been the main character of the control center. It had also completed 15 orbital entry and 15 satellite recycling missions in Han Country, as well as the high-difficulty measurement and control of foreign satellites that had gone out of control.
Especially when the first returning satellite in Han Country was recycled in 1975. As the satellite was launched into the sky for three days and three nights, the 320 computers had to ensure that there were no malfunctions for three days and three nights in a row.
However, because the 320 computers were born in the chaotic era, the quality of the technology was not strictly monitored. In addition, many of the components were aging, so there was an average malfunction every 30 minutes!
Faced with such a serious problem, the crew of the control center decided to act on their own. The innovation and modification eliminated one problem after another. Solving one problem after another, causing the 320 computer to malfunction from its original average of half an hour. It turned into a computer that could operate without malfunction for dozens of hours, or even hundreds of hours. Finally, it successfully completed the satellite recycling and the control and computing task of "One Arrow Three Star."
After the mission to launch the synchronous communication satellites was issued, the 320 computers were in trouble again. Because the launch and setting of the communication satellite was a rather complicated system project. To measure and control such a satellite, the computer had higher requirements.
In the launch, the computer would not only provide guidance data and information exchange to the various monitoring stations and Surveying Vessel that extended for thousands of kilometers. Using the generated control instructions to perform a series of remote control on the satellite, but also to calculate the orbit of the satellite. It had to choose the best time to light up the engine from a far distance, as well as quickly process all kinds of remote data.
The 320 computers were simply unable to calculate and process the data and information related to the communication satellite. Under such circumstances, the technical staff once again came up with a new plan, the four-machine parallel, to combine the two 320 computers and the two 717 computers.
According to this plan, the software experts wrote down a new communication software. The hardware expert redesigned the parallel computer, installed and debuted it, and then made modifications to the internal storage. It doubled the capacity of the computer. Just like that, the old 320 computers once again shouldered the burden of the control center during the mission of launching the 'Red East No. 2' satellite. It successfully completed the mission.
And now, the era had changed. The Han Chip Technology Company had long produced an advanced computer system. The control center was no longer worried about the control system. The progress on the Electronic System... It had also improved the satellite technology in the country by a large margin. Now, it had completed the research and development of the East Red Satellite No. 2. They were ready to launch into the sky at any time!
However, this launch was a matter of the aerospace system. What did it have to do with the navy?
Qin Guan knew in his heart that this was a stone bird with many birds.
Indeed, General Ye continued, "The launch of the synchronous communication satellite is extraordinary, so it must be monitored globally. Therefore, our sea Surveying Vessel must also be deployed around the world, especially... One must be deployed in Daxi Ocean because the current situation in Daxi Ocean is extraordinary. Therefore, we plan to send No. 111 missile destroyer to protect it. At the same time, there is also an ocean supply ship and three ships. Let's go to Daxi Ocean together. "
Hearing this, Qin Guan became excited, "Can I participate?"
Qin Guan had already guessed it.2
That's right, the communication satellite would be launched soon. That was why they had to send out the Surveying Vessel in advance. At the same time, there were also warships with escort. There was also a supply ship. This team was huge enough. After all, the last voyage measurement was to salvage equipment cabins. One had to be wary of the navy of other countries.
And now, what was there to be afraid of?
It was just aerospace control. They didn't need to salvage anything. One space Surveying Vessel was enough. There was no need to use a destroyer, especially No.111.
This destroyer was one of the four new King Kong ships. After more than a year of operation, the sailors had mastered the control of this destroyer. Now, they were going to train their soldiers.
At the same time, it was also to observe this war from a distance. After all, this was a rare opportunity!
Relying on the advanced radar equipment on No.111, everyone wanted to see how the other party fought the war. At the same time, they had to stay further away to prevent accidental injuries.
The navy had been waiting for a long time. After World War II ended, they had almost never seen a naval battle before. This was a good opportunity.
