It's reasonable for me to have a two-way foil for a second-level civilization, right?

Zero has made a lot of optimizations to the program. Without affecting the performance, the difficulty of controlling Xuannv No. [-] has dropped by a whole level.

"Captain, do you think we can say hello to our friends from the United States when we go to Mars this time?" Hong Fan's voice was full of smiles, "How will they react when they see us?"

Bai Yixuan rolled his eyes angrily, and directly poured cold water on Hong Fan beside him.

"Pull it down!"

"Professor Lu has repeatedly told us not to mess around. This is also the meaning of the chairman of the congress. After all, the United States is not dead yet!"

Hong Fan curled his lips, and a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

But soon, his eyes rolled slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"And what if we just do a couple of laps over their heads?"

Bai Yixuan was slightly taken aback.

this……

"Captain, think about it, how cool would it be if we drove this thing around people's heads twice?!" Hong Fan looked "weird", and "devil's whispers" kept coming out of his mouth.

After pondering for a moment, Bai Yixuan turned on the radio switch: "Call the ground command center, Professor Lu, are you there?"

Soon, Lu Yongchang's response spread to everyone's ears.

Bai Yixuan hesitated for a while, and said Hong Fan's thoughts just now: "Professor, can we go to the top of the American Mars capsule for two laps?"

"We guarantee that there will be no moths!"

"Of course, this is Hong Fan's suggestion." At the end, Bai Yixuan hastily added.

There was a silence on the radio.

A trace of cold sweat broke out on Bai Yixuan's forehead, he turned his head and glared at Hong Fan on the left!

Just as he was about to say something, Lu Yongchang's faint voice came from the radio.

"What are you talking about?"

"Isn't that your normal driving route?"

Chapter 116 Academician and Supreme Science and Technology Award

The three of Bai Yixuan were taken aback for a moment.

The next moment, they understood the meaning of Lu Yongchang's words.

Bai Yixuan suppressed his smile and nodded vigorously: "Professor Lu, what you said is true!"

"Okay, let's not gossip anymore." Lu Yongchang of the command center straightened his expression, "There are still 5 minutes before take-off, get ready!"

"Yes!"

……

"Hello, everyone, there are still 5 minutes before Xuannv [-] takes off."

Bingbing's slightly sweet voice sounded in the live broadcast room: "Just now we got some information about Xuannv-[-] from NASA."

"Xuannv No. 60 has a fuselage length of 80 meters and a payload of [-] tons."

"The longest flight distance is 6.68 AU, and the highest flight speed is 167km/s."

Speaking of this, Bingbing added again: "Although the maximum speed has reached 167km/s, this is the result of sufficient acceleration."

"Considering the acceleration and deceleration time, it will take about fifteen days for Xuannv-[-] to successfully reach the orbit of Mars."

"In addition, with the help of the second-generation Hall thrusters, Xuannv-[-] takes off and lands vertically."

As Bingbing's voice fell, two faint blue flames spewed out from the bottom of Xuannv No. [-] in the live broadcast screen!

Propelled by two Hall thrusters, Xuannv-[-] slowly lifted off.

"Fuck! F*ck!"

"Wife, come out and see God!!"

"Good guy, vertical take-off and landing! This technology... Could it be that Xia Guo stole a UFO??"

Amid the exclamation of the crowd, five faint blue nozzles gradually appeared at the tail of Xuannv No. [-].

The next moment, Xuannv No. [-] dragged a long tail flame and flew straight towards the blue sky!

"Huh?? Why do I feel that the speed of Xuannv No. [-] doesn't seem to be fast?"

"I feel it too. This speed... Doesn't it look much different from an ordinary airliner?"

"The space agency didn't report false data, did it?"

Through the screen on the side, the host Bingbing immediately discovered various voices of doubt in the barrage.

She hurriedly explained: "Because of the shape of the fuselage, the flight speed of Xuannv-[-] in the atmosphere is not fast."

"The maximum speed is only about Mach 0.7, which is not much different from that of ordinary airliners."

……

Xuannv No. [-] middle school.

Boredom was written all over the faces of the three astronauts.

"Captain, I still like Xuannv No. [-]."

Hong Fan leaned on the back of the chair, said with blank eyes: "The speed of this thing is too slow..."

"Mach 0.7...that's slower than my grandma's plane!"

"Pfft! Cough cough!" Xia Wanyi choked on her own saliva and glared at Hong Fan angrily.

"That's what it is..." Seeing Xia Wanyi's reproachful eyes, Hong Fan sneered, scratched his head and said, "At this speed, it will take us a lot of time to get out of the earth, right?"

Facing Hong Fan's complaints, Bai Yixuan twisted his body tightly restrained by the seat belt, and a wry smile flashed across his face.

Not to mention Hong Fan, even he thinks this thing is slow!

But as the captain, he still has to do a good job of comforting him.

"calm down."

"When the altitude is high enough and the air is thinner, we can accelerate!"

Hong Fan stared blankly at the clouds in front of him, and sighed deeply.

……

ground command center.

Looking at the series of data sent back by Xuannv No. [-], Lu Yongchang breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense expression on his face also relaxed a lot.

"Yongchang, I have your letter!"

Just as Lu Yongchang was about to turn around and leave the podium, Fang Xu's voice came from the side.

He turned around and looked at the two letters in Fang Xu's hands, with a look of doubt in his eyes.

"My letter?"

As he reached out to take the envelope, he frowned and said to himself, "What year is it, and there are still people sending letters?"

"By the way, have you checked these two letters? Are there any problems?"

Fang Xu said with a strange expression: "Don't worry, if there is something wrong with these two letters, our country of Xia will probably be finished..."

Lu Yongchang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked at the signature on the envelope.

"Xiaguo Academy of Sciences"

"Xiaguo Science and Technology Award Work Office"

Lu Yongchang's eyes moved slightly, and he quickly turned his head to look at the calendar beside him.

2031.9.5

He suddenly realized something.

"Is this the academician selection year?"

Hearing Lu Yongchang's question, Fang Xu smiled and nodded lightly: "Congratulations, in a few days, we should change our name to Academician Lu!"

The corners of Lu Yongchang's mouth raised slightly.

Although he knew that this title was just a dispensable title for him, but as the highest academic title in Xia Kingdom's science and technology, he was still somewhat obsessed with it.

"Why did the results come out so quickly this year?"

Lu Yongchang stretched out his hand to open the letter from the Academy of Sciences, and said, "In the past, didn't it take around November to get the results?"

In his impression, Xia Guo's academicians are co-opted every two years, and each co-election is carried out from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.

Only after layers of screening and evaluation can one stand out from hundreds of candidates and become an academician.

Fang Xu rolled his eyes angrily: "That's for normal people."

"Don't you look at how much you have done this year?"

"If it weren't for some procedures that you have to go through, I guess at the beginning of this year, those old guys from the Academy of Sciences would have appraised you as an academician!"

This is not his nonsense.

As early as the beginning of the year, he heard some rumors.

On the Academy of Sciences side, a special meeting was held for the selection of Lu Yongchang's academician.

At the meeting, a group of review teams had a heated discussion on when to award Lu Yongchang the title of academician.

According to the opinion of the review team, the sooner the title of academician is awarded, the better!

After all, judging from the current achievements, if Lu Yongchang is not an academician, there will not be many people left in the Academy of Sciences who are qualified to be academicians.

However, in order not to break the rules, this time was dragged to September, just more than two months earlier.

"Dear Professor Lu Yongchang, congratulations..."

Looking at the words in the letter, Lu Yongchang smiled a little.

One year after his rebirth, he became an academician of Xia Guo again.

It's a pity that there is no human association yet, otherwise, he might already be the so-called chief scientist.

Thinking of this, Lu Yongchang's eyes showed a bit of emotion.

Why don't you find an opportunity to mention the People's Federation to the Chairman of the Assembly?

After all, Xia Guo's current strength is enough to suppress those countries that like to make small moves!

"Aren't you going to read another letter?"

Fang Xu's voice interrupted Lu Yongchang's thoughts.

"Huh? What is this?" Lu Yongchang was stunned, and opened another letter.

"Xia Kingdom's National Highest Science and Technology Award?!"

Chapter 117 Award Ceremony

"Dear Professor Lv Yongchang, in view of your many breakthroughs in cutting-edge technology and your outstanding contributions to the Xia Kingdom, you have been nominated as a candidate for the Xia Kingdom's highest national science and technology award. The results of the selection will be announced next week. The National Science and Technology Award Conference has been announced, please be sure to participate!"

Looking at the few lines of large characters on the letter paper in his hand, Lu Yongchang took a deep breath.

"This...is the chairman serious?"

Lu Yongchang's eyes were slightly shaken.

This award, he had never even received it in his previous life.

The reason is, of course, very simple.

In his last life, when he was eligible for this award, Xia Guo had already become a part of the People's Federation, so naturally there was no such thing as Xia Guo's highest national science and technology award.

"Seriously, of course."

Fang Xu's voice interrupted Lu Yongchang's thoughts: "Do you think the chairman of the council will joke about this kind of thing?"

"This is the highest award among the five Xia Kingdom National Science and Technology Awards, tsk tsk tsk..."

Fang Xu's voice was full of envy.

No scientific researcher can resist the temptation of this award.
