At this moment, the way Li Qingsong transported water into space was roughly the same as the transportation of other goods. A semi-circular cable car went up on one side of the space elevator and down on the other side. As for where the water comes from, that's also simple. Many space elevators are built on islands and directly connected to the sea, with sea water flowing in continuously. Those that are not near the sea are built near rivers and have convenient access to water. Thus, with a total of 1,000 space elevators, powered by 1,000 corresponding large-capacity nuclear power plants, the first batch of cable cars were filled with water at the same time. The total internal volume of these cable cars is approximately 2,400 cubic meters. Therefore, one cable car can run 2,400 tons of water at a time. After technical optimization, Li Qingsong can now send out a trip every minute. So, that's 60 trips per hour, and 144,000 tons of water can be transported! At this moment, a total of 1,000 cable cars are distributed at the bottom of 1,000 space elevators, ready to depart. send! In an instant, amidst the dull high-frequency noise, the heavy cable car loaded with sea water, river water, or lake water rushed out from the ground base at a powerful acceleration of up to tens of meters per square second.
In just a few seconds, they created a huge sonic boom, and their speed directly exceeded the speed of sound. But this is just a starting point. The speed of sound alone is not enough. Because the total length of this space elevator is about 50,000 kilometers. Even if it flies at the speed of sound, it will take about 41 hours to fly from one end to the other. Too slow. They will reach a speed of about six times the speed of sound, or two kilometers per second, so, including the time for acceleration and deceleration, it will only take them about seven hours to reach the end of the space elevator. One minute later, the 1,000 cable cars had traveled a distance of 100 kilometers and arrived at the approximate location of the Karman Line. The Karman line is the traditional boundary between the Earth's atmosphere and outer space. Once they cross this line, the cables will be in space. At this moment, the second batch of 1,000 cable cars departed simultaneously. After one minute of flight, they crossed the Karman line and continued to head for deeper space, followed by the third batch, the fourth batch... 1,000 space elevators built on the Earth's equator are like 1,000 giant pillars. Every minute, there are 1,000 sonic booms all over the Earth, like rolling thunder. A large amount of water rolled in and out. In this huge movement that seemed like the earth was turning upside down, countless animals and plants were affected and died. But Li Qingsong couldn't take care of them for the time being. Anyway, I have already collected the genes and embryos of all animals. Even if they are extinct now, the worst that can happen is that I can breed them again after the earth's environment is restored in the future. Everything is based on the war at this moment. If you lose the war, you will lose everything you have. If you win the war, what you lost will come back! At the end of the space elevator, after waiting for several hours, the first batch of cable cars finally arrived. There were thousands of stars twinkling in the distant space. Li Qingsong didn't know which of them were real stars and which were spy satellites of the Bluetuk people, and he didn't bother to care.
It can't be cleaned up anyway, and there's no way to keep it secret, so I might as well just let them see it. Just like the spy satellites they have deployed around Venus, the Blue Turks are too lazy to care about them. The first batch of cable cars arrived at the terminal processing workshop. The linear velocity at the end of the space elevator has exceeded the Earth's orbital speed at this location, so the centrifugal force is dominant here. It creates an effect similar to gravity, but in the opposite direction from Earth. Under the influence of gravity, the water from the first cable car flowed out of the hole and remained in a huge spherical plastic container. This was specially made by Li Qingsong to bind the water in space and prevent it from dispersing due to the vacuum environment, causing unnecessary losses. A plastic container filled with water has a radius of about meters, which can just hold about 2,400 cubic meters of water for a cable car. The filling was completed, the plastic container was sealed, and the cable car returned directly to the surface along the downward channel. Then the second cable car, the third, the fourth... These huge water balls were not released for the time being, but were temporarily transferred to a huge movable warehouse, continuing to wait for the right opportunity. The Earth rotates once every 24 hours, and the end of the space elevator also rotates once every 24 hours. When the end rotated to the point closest to the orbit of Venus, the huge cargo hold loaded with huge water balls was thrown directly into the orbit closest to Venus without any acceleration and began to fly at a speed of about 12 kilometers per second. These cargo holds are not proper spacecraft at all. Apart from a huge cargo hold, it only has some thrusters and is very simple. But these thrusters are enough to correct the cargo ship's trajectory and allow it to actually fly to Venus. Of course, the cargo hold will not actually fly to Venus. After completing the orbit correction, the cargo hold's hatch opened and began to slow down. Then, the huge water balls rolled out like a dump truck dumping cargo, and rolled towards Venus. The cargo spacecraft then returned and continued to wait for the next batch of water balls. This cycle repeats for 1,000 space elevators. In just one day, million water balls with a radius of meters and a mass of 2,400 tons each appeared in the orbit from the Earth to Venus. Their containers are transparent, so the heat from the sun instantly heats the water inside, generating a large amount of water vapor, which immediately swells the containers. With enough pressure inside, the water remains in liquid form instead of spreading out directly and turning into a molecular cloud. On the second day, the number of water balls flying in space became million, and then more and more. Countless water balls are like shining pearls. They are roughly evenly distributed on this waterway, like a dazzling road paved with pearls, or like a real river in the sky, spreading from the Earth to Venus. Depending on the relative positions of Venus and the Earth, they need to fly for a minimum of 37 days and a maximum of 200 days to reach Venus, and then merge with Venus to bring sufficient water to the extremely dry atmosphere of Venus. Not long after the delivery began, Li Qingsong saw the Bluetokes respond.
Under the attack of countless electromagnetic cannon projectiles and laser beams, huge pearls shattered one after another, and the water inside immediately flowed out. The Blue Tooks' interception is coming.
