Chapter 329: Transport Spaceship and the Unknown Massive Celestial Body (Part 1)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Tang Rui, returning home, sat on the observation deck in a daze.

Night fell.

The moon rose.

Today happened to be the fifteenth, and the moon was very round.

“Red Lotus, display the lunar geological map,” Tang Rui suddenly said to Red Lotus.

“Okay, master.”

On the holographic projection model, the area of the moon that has been explored now has reached 60%.

The remaining 40% is still being explored by the mechanical dogs.

Red Lotus, find a location with underground water resources and a flat terrain.”

“Master, there are a total of 1.83 million geological environments that meet your requirements. Would you like to conduct a precise screening?”

“Choose the ones with the best scenery, the broadest view, where you can see the Earth, and it would be even better if there are some unique landscapes nearby.”

After listening, Tang Rui thought for a moment and added some conditions. Whoosh!

Red Lotus instantly screened out several locations that met his requirements. This one was not bad.

This place was good.

Tang Rui clicked on several locations, enlarged them to view, and found all of them to be very satisfactory, completely meeting his requirements.

Finally, after selecting for a long time, he chose a location backed by a mountain peak. This place had a wide view in front, directly overlooking the Earth, and the mountain peak at the back was a sheer cliff with a smooth surface.

Building a palace here for a wedding would be quite nice. The cliff at the back could also be used for carving, or engraving a mural, which should have a great effect.  b

“Red Lotus, based on the images in fantasy novels, collect pictures of buildings and artistic works from the internet, and simulate a 3D effect model of the Guanghan Palace, displaying the actual effect after completion.”

“Okay, master.”

In a few seconds, Red Lotus generated hundreds of videos.

Although it lacks creativity.

But the Al drawings and renderings on the internet are very beautiful, and Red Lotus does it even better.

Tang Rui opened the videos, looking at each one.

They all felt good.

After watching too many, he started to experience aesthetic fatigue.

Forget it, let’s wait for Li Shuyao to choose tonight.”

Closing these videos and no longer selecting, he was really dazzled and didn’t know which one to choose.

“Red Lotus, the various equipment for the construction of the lunar base can start to be manufactured, then show the model of the transport spaceship that was not designed last time.”

Compared to choosing architectural designs, he was more skilled at designing spaceships.

This spaceship had already been designed last year.

However, the design was interrupted halfway due to the affairs of the Asu family, and he never got around to finishing it because of more pressing matters.

This time, to build a base on the moon, a transport spaceship is a standard necessity, and he can’t do without it.

But now, Tang Rui’s ideas are different from before.

Previously, he had been thinking of making a transport spaceship with a few thousand tons of cargo, just like the spaceships in games.

But with the construction of the space elevator, he realized that these kinds of spaceships are not very practical, or at least not suitable for civilian use.

This time, the transport cables are specially made flying vehicles.

After all, a transport spaceship can’t fit them.

So the previous design was basically useless, except for keeping the bridge, communication, and energy modules, everything else had to be started over.

Tang Rui raised his hand, dismantled the spaceship model, and directly deleted the external hull structure of the ship.

The keel was kept, the equipment was kept, and the internal structure and cables were all deleted.

The entire transport spaceship was left with only one keel.

Tang Rui grabbed the keel and stretched it, from the original 300 meters long directly to 4.5 kilometers.

Then he thickened the keel and designed it in segmented joints.

Basically, each segment of the keel was 500 meters long.

On each segment, he installed several brackets.

These brackets were for hanging things.

According to his idea, each bracket could hang a bunch of space transport containers.

The standard for the containers was the load standard of the space cargo elevator, basically reaching the thousand-ton level.

When the time came, the space electric thrusters would directly spit out the containers, which could then be hung on the brackets of the transport spaceship’s keel.

No outer shell was needed. After hanging tens of thousands of tons of materials, the transport spaceship could set sail.

This transportation efficiency could completely compress the cost to the level of air transport, only slightly higher than sea transport.

Then, building materials for the lunar base could easily be transported from Earth to the moon.

If it were like what he originally thought.

Just making one transport spaceship.

Goodness.

Just building the equipment for the lunar base would be like ants moving

house, transporting back and forth, exhausting.

After designing the keel, Tang Rui modified the original bridge, placing it at

the front of the transport spaceship.

Then he modified the rear thrusters and installed them at the tail, and the entire transport spaceship was designed.

The internal pipelines and other details were left to Red Lotus for optimization. “Red Lotus, optimize the internal details of this transport spaceship, and at the same time simulate and calculate the structural stress of the spaceship, especially paying attention to the influence of Earth’s gravity and the moon’s gravity on the spaceship.”

“Okay, master, Red Lotus will conduct a comprehensive simulation calculation

of the entire operating spaceship.”

Tang Rui nodded after listening and left the laboratory.

He waited for the evening.

When Li Shuyao returned home, he would show her the Guanghan Palace videos designed by Red Lotus, letting Li Shuyao choose her favorite design. “There will be a reward tonight.”

After watching several videos, Li Shuyao happily came to Tang Rui’s side and whispered in his ear..
