Chapter 1570 Ignition After a Century!

It's not just the guests sitting in the Heart of Asia.

At the same time, people in almost the entire northern hemisphere in the eighth time zone saw the bright light hanging in the night.

In the suburbs of the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration, Lili stood on the balcony, with her small hands on the window sill, staring at the sky eagerly.

Probably last night, the big brother named Academician Lu sent her a message, saying that if you stand on the windowsill at seven o'clock tonight, you will see very, very beautiful fireworks.

Even though it was almost seven o'clock and there was still no movement in the sky, Lili still believed that that nice big brother would not lie to her.

The time was getting closer and closer, just when she raised her small hands and rubbed her sore eyes, and she began to feel sleepy while waiting, a bright curtain of light suddenly opened in the air.

Looking at the dreamy light, the little girl froze for a moment, then jumped up and down excitedly, and the sleepiness in her heart was instantly swept away.

"Tail, tail, come out and see!"

Hearing the voice from the balcony, Tail in an apron came out of the room, looked at Lili and said softly.

"What's wrong, Lili."

"There, there," blinking innocent big eyes, pointing at the sky with a small white lotus-like hand, the little girl's face was filled with a joyful and excited smile, "Look, look, it's the aurora !"

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

"What a nice view……"

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

But deep down in her heart, she still couldn't help having the idea that this moment would last forever...

...

A small restaurant in the suburbs of Jinling.

Like the vast majority of dormant people, Director Li did not pass the weird festival of Ignition Day. Usually at this time, he would take his fellow dormant fellows to find a place to drink and brag together.

Originally, he planned to call Lu Zhou and Wang Peng this time, but unfortunately, Lu Zhou went to the Heart of Asia as a special guest, and Wang Peng couldn't come because of work. In the end, only The remaining two widowed and lonely old people drank alone, looking very lonely.

After two glasses of wine, Director Li was talking about the grand occasion of controllable fusion ignition. The fellow who was drinking with him suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked up at the light in the sky.

"What is that thing?"

Raising his head unsteadily, Chief Li glanced in that direction, and replied bluntly.

"have no idea."

The fellow sitting opposite the wine table chuckled and said jokingly, "Damn, you old man was the leader of R&D a hundred years ago, why don't you know anything."

"I'm not Little Ding Dong, you can ask that person surnamed Lu." After taking a sip of white wine, Director Li looked up at the sky, smacked his lips, and said suddenly, "Speaking of which, today is the lighting day."

"Yes, what's the matter?"

"That's probably something made by Academician Lu again," Director Li said with a smile and a natural tone, "Auroras appear in the temperate zone, aside from the spectacle that occurs once in ten thousand years, it is not natural under natural circumstances. Likely."

...

While the entire pan-Asian cooperation was in a jubilant festive atmosphere, the second-generation controllable fusion experimental reactor base of East Asia Electric Power, far away on the moon, was busy and tense at this moment.

Ignition has been successful!

Huge energy has also been projected onto the earth's atmosphere through a high-power laser array, and the gas molecules ionized by the laser form a bright aurora at the edge of the atmosphere, and this is the gift of East Asia Power to the people of the world.

However, even though they had accomplished the historic ignition, no one dared to stop what they were doing and stood up to celebrate.

After all, for a mature experimental reactor, ignition is only the threshold, and the next thing is the key.

That is, to maintain the stable operation of the reactor.

Standing in front of the console, Xie Tian stared fixedly at the various data on the holographic screen, standing there motionless like a sculpture, even if the parameters of the reactor were maintained in a stable range, he did not dare to There is no slack.

After all, the plasma running in the reactor has a temperature as high as tens of billions. Let alone search the entire solar system, even if you search another ten or twenty light years outside the solar system, you may not be able to find a flame with such a terrifying temperature.

If it wasn't for being constrained by the magnetic field, compressing this terrifying energy within a fist-sized range, and still allowing it to expand freely, half of the moon might be swallowed up in that mass of boiling energy.

Not to mention Guanghan City next door.

"It seems that the condition of the reactor is not bad." Walking to Xie Tian's side, Jia Siyuan glanced at the various parameters jumping on the holographic panel, and then said, "Go and rest for a while, I will replace you here."

Xie Tian shook his head, not daring to take his eyes off the holographic panel for a moment.

"The experiment will be over for a while, and it's not time for me to rest yet."

It took East Asia Power a whole year to represent the compatriots on the earth and win the trust of the citizens of Guanghan City. If he failed this piece of trust, not only his conscience would feel bad, but also the sense of responsibility in his heart would not let him go.

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

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

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

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

So far, a round of ignition experiments has been completed halfway.

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

The next job is to shut down the reactor.

The work in this department is not a challenge, staring at the parameters on the holographic panel that have all fallen back, Xie Tian ordered decisively.

"Connect the cooling rods to the heat conduction port of the core! Open the core trap and adjust to the standby mode to prepare! Weaken the confinement magnetic field in batches!"

Following a series of orders, the staff sitting in front of the console operated the instruments in an orderly manner, shut down the reactor, and conducted the remaining heat to the ground through the heat conducting rods.

Looking at the temperature indicator that had returned to a safe value, Jia Siyuan, who was standing beside him, had a happy smile on his face.

"It's finally done."

"Yes," Xie Tian also smiled, and said in a relaxed tone, "When we report this good news to Academician Lu, we can celebrate here too!"

After all, this is an epoch-making moment.

From this moment on, human civilization has truly mastered the power of fusion, and has collected the richest treasures in the Earth-Moon system.

Everyone standing here has made history at this moment.

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

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