Chapter 220: Satellite Changes Orbit, Seizing the Orbit
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Tang Rui was unaware of the situation.
The official website of Crimson also offered no information.
However, the issue was that Sudan had conducted a press conference addressing this matter, leading to its coverage by domestic media.
No further comment was necessary.
This news reignited fervor among netizens.
In other countries, this would hardly be news, given American ownership of numerous military contractor firms.
Yet, this was a rarity in China.
Subsequently, a multitude of netizens flooded Crimson’s website, inquiring about temporary employment opportunities.
The Chinese internet community was abuzz with activity.
Meanwhile, the Americans received the news with a degree of dismay.
Incredible.
They had grasped this tactic.
Nevertheless, it was inconsequential. Their extensive experience over many
years left them undaunted.
They even saw this as an opportunity to instruct Crimson.
Time flew swiftly.
Hours passed.
Red Lotus had completed the satellite construction.
Typically, satellite manufacturing was never so rapid, but Tang Rui s requirements for these three satellites were not particularly stringent.
After all, he planned to enhance them using the system later.
Thus, he requested Red Lotus to prioritize speed without any additional specifications.
Upon arriving at the assembly workshop, Tang Rui observed three rectangular satellites with solar sails extended on either side.
They appeared as ordinary satellites, lacking distinctive features.
[Item: High Orbit Communication Satellite]
[Experience: 0/800]
[Origin: 1646.48]
Tang Rui, examining the system panel, proceeded to enhance the satellite, not
just once.
A soft golden light shimmered.
The satellite’s enhancement was complete.
The rectangular satellite had transformed into an oval shape, with altered surface materials and no solar sails.
Tang Rui, indifferent to the satellite’s appearance, checked the system panel again.
[Item: Neutrino High-Orbit Detection Communication Satellite]
[Experience: 0/50000]
[Enhancement: Neutrino Information Capture Radars]
[Attributes: Scanning accuracy increased by 180%, scanning range by 160%, information transmission efficiency by 120%, data analysis capability by
100%]
[Origin: 1322.48]
Tang Rui, satisfied with the system panel data, nodded.
Enhancing this satellite had cost over 300 origin points.
Yet, the outcome was highly effective.
The neutrino information capture radar was top-notch, comparable to the
light quantum information capture system.
However, their applications differed.
The former gathered extensive light quantum information but lacked x-ray vision capabilities.
The latter excelled in high-precision penetration and scanning. Within its range, no information could evade neutrino penetration, but beyond it, concealment was possible.
“Red Lotus, secure the designs and data in a high-security database, inaccessible to anyone but me,” instructed Tang Rui.
“Understood, Master. The information is safely stored and will remain confidential,” Red Lotus confirmed, nodding.
After data storage, Tang Rui moved on to enhancing the second satellite, focusing on its communication system.
The existing system was prone to interference.
Even Red Lotus couldn’t surpass the hardware’s limitations, a manageable issue in peace but potentially disastrous during war.
Thus, enhancing the communication equipment’s performance was crucial.
Over 300 origin points were invested.
The satellite, enveloped in a faint golden light, was enhanced.
Post-enhancement, the satellite’s shape had shifted from oval to a longer cylinder.
The presence of solar sails, however, was not visible.
The prior special enhancements, including energy enhancements, rendered solar sails obsolete.
[Item: Quantum Information Tunnel Communication Satellite]
[Experience: 0/60000]
[Enhancement: Quantum Information Tunnel Communication System] [Attributes: Communication data bandwidth increased by 180%, confidentiality by 160%, distance by 120%, quality by 100%]
[Origin Points: 973-46]
Tang Rui, reviewing the system panel data, nodded in approval. The satellite’s performance met his requirements.
It even exceeded them, in a manner of speaking.
This was unsurprising, as communication technology would never become obsolete, even if such high-end technology was not needed for communication within a planet.
The satellite, coupled with Red Lotus’s quantum supercomputer, would experience no delays.
However, in the future, as humanity ventured into the stars, this kind of delay-free communication technology would still be needed.
No delay simply meant that there’d be no delay in the information transmission process; the specific response speed would depend on the computing speed of the host system.
However, with this satellite equipped with the Red Lotus quantum supercomputer, there will definitely be no delay whatsoever. Having addressed two satellites, Tang Rui turned to the third.
After looking at it for a good while though, he refrained from enhancing it.
It was because it wasn’t even needed in the first place.
With one satellite each for communication and scanning, a third was
unnecessary.
He contemplated briefly, then instructed Red Lotus, “Store the design and data at the same security level. Return this satellite to the warehouse and retrieve the laser-armed satellite.”
“Right away, Master,” Red Lotus complied, initiating the task.
“Also, refuel the White Emperor and prepare it for the runway,” Tang Rui added before departing.
“Yes, Master.”
Returning home, Tang Rui found Li Shuyao watching a drama on the sofa.
“Have you finished?” she asked.
“Not yet. There’s more work ahead,” he replied.
“When will you be done?”
“By 11,” Tang Rui estimated, glancing at the time.
“Okay, I’ll wait,” she said.
“Yes.”
Tang Rui returned to his room, donned the anti-G suit, and headed back to the lab to suit up in battle armor.
Meanwhile, Red Lotus had prepared a satellite, securing it on the White Emperor’s back.
Tang Rui boarded the White Emperor, notified the space agency, and took off.
Flying out of the Karman line, he arrived in outer space.
The White Emperor began to accelerate.
This time, its orbit was quite high, a full 36,000 kilometers.
If it weren’t for being in outer space, the White Emperor’s fuel might not have been enough for even one round trip.
The space shuttle was indeed necessary.
Having the White Emperor carry a box back and forth to transport satellites every day wasn’t ideal.
Half an hour later, the White Emperor finally reached the geosynchronous orbit at 36,000 kilometers. This corridor was very special, as there was only one.
Because the satellites in this orbit traveled around the Earth at the same speed as the Earth’s rotation.
So, when a satellite was placed in this orbit, it appeared fixed in the sky, not moving around everywhere.
■Master, a communication satellite is changing its orbit, trying to take over the orbit above Sudan.’
This was the message Tang Rui received from Red Lotus, just as he was about to return after deploying the communication satellite..”
