Chapter 203 (2/2)
After introducing himself and explaining his intention, Wang Bin knew that these people were indeed from the head of a space orbit Telescope Project at a space base in Northwest China and his two deputies.
The name of the project leader is Lei Yifei, and the names of his two deputies are Yang Hongying and Ren Zhengxi.
”Mr. Wang, the purpose of our coming to Tiangong technology this time is precisely for our ongoing project, that is, the high orbit space telescope project.
As we all know, because space telescopes are different from ground-based telescopes, the manufacturing difficulty is definitely much higher than that of ground-based telescopes. At present, few countries in the world can manufacture them. Now, Huaxia can only manufacture small-diameter orbital space telescopes, but can not manufacture large-diameter ones. The most important difficulty lies in the main lens of orbital space telescopes.
Not long ago, because Tianyuan optics under Tiangong technology has made a great breakthrough in ground large aperture astronomical telescopes, it has been able to manufacture the world's largest ground ordinary optical telescope. As the head office of Tianyuan optics, I think you should not be too bad in this regard.
Most importantly, there is still a big gap in the performance of the optical glass produced by your Tiangong technology and the special glass mastered by your Tiangong technology. Therefore, we want to ask President Wang whether your Tiangong technology has the ability to manufacture large aperture optical telescope lenses in space orbit.
Of course, the large caliber I mean here is more than two meters but less than seven meters. After all, once the caliber exceeds seven meters, we can't send it into space. At the same time, in terms of weight, I also hope to try to be as light as possible without affecting the performance of the main lens of the telescope. ”
After listening to Lei Yifei's words, Wang Bin didn't answer immediately. After all, this is the main lens of the orbital space telescope! This is not a simple project. It can be seen from Lei Yifei's visit.
However, although Lei Yifei's space telescope main lens is very difficult in terms of technology, even with their existing capabilities of Tiangong technology, it may not be possible to manufacture it. Maybe Wang Bin must turn to the technology mall. However, in fact, Wang Bin is also very interested in this project, After all, this is to build the world's largest space orbit optical telescope! And it's not a low orbit telescope, but a high orbit telescope.
Thinking of this, he opened his mouth to Lei Yifei and said, ”director Lei, I am still very interested in the main lens project of the orbital space telescope, but you know the difficulty of manufacturing such a main lens, but we Tiangong technology can also try to see if it can succeed, and I can't guarantee it to you now!”
”Mr. Wang! Of course I know the difficulty of manufacturing such lenses. Otherwise, we won't ask Mr. Wang to come to Tiangong technology.
So, Mr. Wang, you Tiangong technology only need to do your best. If you really can't develop such a lens, it's OK! We don't demand it, ”Lei Yifei said.
”That's good! Director Lei, about the research and development of the main lens of the orbital space telescope, we Tiangong technology will try our best! But I think there is still some hope to develop such a lens with the ability of Wengong technology.” Wang Bin also said with a smile.
Later, several people chatted for a while. When Lei Yifei was ready to leave, he said to Wang Bin, ”Mr. Wang, let's make a deal. I'll go back and report it to our leaders and specific R & D funds. In a few days, special personnel should come to discuss with Mr. Wang.
