Chapter 192 Super Large Aperture Optical Telescope

Of course, the situation here has also attracted a higher level of official attention, and he immediately investigated his Tianyuan Optics, and finally found that this company is not simple.

They discovered that this Tianyuan Optics is actually a subsidiary of Tiangong Technology, and the colorless optical glass produced by Tianyuan Optics is naturally a modified version of the special glass produced by Wang Bin and his Tiangong Technology.

Therefore, the superiors did not hinder the cooperation between Tianyuan Optics and local authorities to build the world’s largest optical telescope. They even dispatched a professional team and allocated a special amount of money to support it.

After all, this is different from the construction of high-rise buildings, etc., the Face project, this is truly world-class technology equipment! It is definitely the pinnacle of science and technology in the world’s astronomical instruments and equipment.

Naturally, the superiors are also very supportive. At the same time, the superiors are also watching. If this telescope can be built, then other parts of the country will definitely have to build more or even larger optical astronomical telescopes, as long as there are more and larger astronomical telescopes. The telescope, the national astronomy universe, can have greater development.

At the same time, just after Tianyuan Optics announced this matter, a meeting was being held at a space center in the far northwest.

The main content of this conference is also closely related to their Tianyuan Optics, or Tiangong Technology.

That is, in the past two years, the space center also wants to build a large space astronomical telescope, just like the Hubble-like telescope of the bald eagle.

However, the aerospace center or domestically, there is no problem in other aspects, but only in the main lens of the telescope, it is stuck tightly, and there is no way at all. After all, things like this, foreign manufacturers China’s blockade is very strict. Even smaller lenses will not be sold to China, let alone larger ones.

The most important thing is that the space center’s ambitions are also very large. If there was no one before, let’s do the best if you want to do it now.

Therefore, according to their preliminary assumptions, the main lens of the space-orbiting telescope they want to manufacture must be at least three meters in diameter, and the main lens of this caliber, not to mention China, does not even have a bald eagle.

Therefore, although they have been working hard to solve this problem in the past two years, there has been no breakthrough. To manufacture such telescope lenses, not only ultra-high-precision equipment is used, but also in terms of optical glass. Not ordinary optical glass can do the job.

Now, Tianyuan Optics, a subsidiary of Tiangong Technology, can manufacture optical telescopes with an exit diameter of 78.6 meters, so it must be no problem for them to make the main lens of the space-orbiting astronomical telescope they need!

As for why it is Tiangong Technology and not Tianyuan Optics, which is a subsidiary of Tiangong Technology, the question is simple. The colorless optical glass of Tiangong Optics is already very advanced.

However, Tiangong Technology still has more advanced special glass in its hands. At the same time, Tiangong Technology also has various high-precision processing equipment that Tianyuan Optics does not have. These equipment are essential equipment for manufacturing orbital space telescopes.

Therefore, on the second day when Tianyuan Optics announced the matter, a group of people from far northwest rushed up and the plane flew toward Tiangong Technology.

Of course, Wang Bin didn’t know all of this, even if it was the situation of Tianyuan Optics under their Tiangong Technology, he knew a little bit.

At the same time, he also knows that Tianyuan Optics was developing the project of super large-aperture astronomical telescopes, but he is not very clear about the specific process. After all, in his opinion, even if Tianyuan Optics has the optical glass technology provided by Tiangong Technology, but he wants It’s impossible to develop an astronomical telescope with a large aperture in a few years.

But unexpectedly, their research and development process far exceeded Wang Bin’s expectations. It only took a few months to complete the research and development and manufacturing, which definitely gave Wang Bin a huge surprise.

However, on the second day when Tianyuan Optics announced that it would build a world-class super-large-aperture telescope with local officials, many international optical lens manufacturers announced at almost the same time that they would eliminate China’s restrictions on large-aperture optical telescopes. At the same time, various astronomical R&D institutions in China and local officials are also welcome to cooperate.

However, what embarrassed them was that, except for one or two R&D institutions, none of the others had expressed their intention to cooperate in the first time. Even if these astronomical R&D institutions contacted them, the telescopes they ordered did not have the same caliber. It is only one or two meters large, and the price offered is also very low, even only half of the normal price.

For such a price, how could those foreign lens manufacturers agree to it? After all, they are not Tianyuan Optics. The price of the telescope lens they manufacture is very high. Even when they are sold to their own country, the price is also It’s not cheap, let alone sold to China.

In addition, they also announced the lifting of the ban on some other countries, such as a large country in the north.

Now that China has manufactured the main lens of large-aperture telescopes, the characteristics of China’s manufacturers will certainly not only satisfy their domestic market, but will certainly look to the international market.

There are only a few countries in the world capable of building large-aperture telescopes.

Therefore, they naturally want to quickly seize the market, and even if they do not lift the ban, it is naturally very easy to import such lenses from China due to the relationship between a certain northern country and China.

Therefore, once China is manufactured, their ban is equivalent to nothing.

For this series of actions of foreign astronomical telescopes and lens manufacturers, Tiangong Technology’s Tianyuan Optics does not care, but continues to steadily promote the cooperation between them and local officials, and began to prepare to build this 78.6-meter caliber on the top of Cangshan Mountain. After the completion, the big guy with a total weight of more than eight thousand tons.

Of course, Tianyuan Optics has made breakthroughs in lenses such as the primary and secondary lenses of astronomical telescopes. In fact, their research and development work on other lenses has also entered a new stage during this time.

After all, if there is no breakthrough in these aspects, they will definitely not be able to manufacture the main lens of the telescope with such a large outlet.

Therefore, the world’s major optical glass giants at this time have already felt the real threat of Tianyuan Optics to them, but there is no good way for Tianyuan Optics. After all, Tianyuan Optics is different from the previous bearing steel.

Tianyuan Optics, even before it was acquired by Wang Bin, had a large share in the domestic optical glass market.

Even internationally, many manufacturers buy their optical glass. Although their share in the world is very small, it is undeniable that the optical glass manufactured by their company before is indeed good.

In addition, after being acquired by Wang Bin, using the technology provided by Wang Bin, the optical glass manufactured by Tianyuan Optics has a high quality Ascension, and its market share is also increasing rapidly, especially in the high-end domestic market. As for the optical glass market, with the efforts of Tianyuan Optics during this period, it now accounts for almost 80% of the market.

After all, before this lens, foreign countries are strictly prohibited from entering China. In addition, Tianyuan Optics has produced high-end glass silently, and has not carried out any publicity, so when someone finds it out, Tianyuan Optics has almost occupied more than 80% of the domestic high-end optical glass.

Thanks to the solid domestic test drive as the backing, Tianyuan Optics is not afraid of foreign manufacturers doing things at all.
