Roses, tennis, yachts, "Satus-D", "SpaceWind" (slogan: Resonance-Resistance-Renaissance!). A story.
Kors leaned back in his comfortable chair with pleasure.
A spacious, bright, sunny office. On the walls there are photo portraits as well as images of those technical devices that were developed by "The Space Investment Center', - devices, which have become known to the entire scientific community.
There are endless thickets of roses outside the window. There is a pleasant smell of roses in the office.
This morning, for a health, he ran through a beautiful park, did fitness and had a hydro massage session, took the children to school by car.
Thus ... a new sunny working day has begun.
Everything is going well. The technical complex "Satus-D", launched to the Saturn, successfully reached the surface of this planet. The microaerostat "SpaceWind" (with a sail made of nanomaterial) separated from this complex. A video camera mounted on a microaerostat provides a real-time picture of what is happening on the Saturn.
The 'Satus-D' technical complex was developed by their 'Space Investment Center'. Soon the photo of "Satus-D" will take its place on the wall of his office.
'SpaceWind' was designed and manufactured by a small team led by Mon San, a female mathematician. She is from Mankoma (a country in Southeast Asia). The mother of woman-mathematician (also a mathematician), worked for some time at "The Deep Space Foundation', located in a neighboring city. Then the mother of this woman returned to her native Mankoma.
In the recent past, there was another personnel shake-up in the tops; he, Kors, was far away - in the ocean - at that time; an application for financing was being prepared; the support of the party elite was needed; and Mon San joined their 'Space Investment Center'.
The application for funding received the necessary support from the party elite and has successfully passed through all authorities.
Mon San was assigned a separate task, little related to the main plan: to create a "SpaceWind" microaerostat with a sail made of nanomaterials. By itself, this microaerostat is almost unrelated to the concept of their work on launching 'Satuses' ("Satus-A", "Satus-B", "Satus-C" ... ).
Mon San isn't doing any morning running, have no fitness, no hydro massage... Is she feeling the pleasant smell of the blooming, beautiful roses?
Mon San was working 24 hours a day, seven days a week. In the premises where 'SpaceWind' was designed and manufactured, she installed webcams that transmitted images of Mon San (and her small team) around the clock.
Such simple actions has attracted widespread attention to Mon San and 'SpaceWind'.
The probability that the 'SpaceWind', designed and manufactured by a person without sufficient technical experience, would demonstrate operability and efficiency on Saturn was zero. Nevertheless, it was decided to deliver 'SpaceWind' to Saturn together with 'Satus-D'.
"SpaceWind" rose above the surface of Saturn and began transmitting a live video.
This attracted even a wider public interest both in Mon San and in 'SpaceWind'.
One of the authors posting his work on the Internet, a fan of talking about Konstantin Tsiolkovsky and Sergei Korolev, began to write regularly about 'SpaceWind'. In one of his materials, he formulated the slogan "Resonance-Resistance-Renaissance!".
In fact, it was their slogan, prepared by their 'Space Investment Center', and placed in encrypted form on the surface (on the skin) of the 'Satus-D' in the form of a pixel image (drawing).
Kors phoned Middy:
"- Middy! Hi! How are things going?'
'- Check out our website!'
Kors opened the required website. Everything is right. A guy from North Africa (he now lives in France) informed his father (who now lives in Brazil) that he (son) had deciphered the pixel pattern placed on the surface (on the skin) of the "Satus-D".
Well done, boy! Many people didn't even know about the existence of such a drawing (before the discovery of the attentive guy from North Africa, now - from France), moreover, no one knew how this drawing could be deciphered. And the guy turned out to be smart, brainy.
Naturally, this smart guy's internet-correspondence (with his father) immediately got into the media space. Everyone found out about the encrypted slogan!
Helly took a photo of the interior of the 'Space Investment Center' with smiling faces of employees against the background of the slogan "Resonance-Resistance-Renaissance!"
That's all right. Those who like to talk about Konstantin Tsiolkovsky and Sergei Korolev can continue to express their thoughts in the open public information space.
Kors took the phone again.
"- Imis? ... We have a helpful employee - a female mathematician - from Mankoma - at our Center. I would hate to lose this valuable employee. How long will the residence permit (issued to her) be valid? ... Three more years? And then? Will she have to return to Mankoma and to ask a re-issue her residence permit? ... It's a pity! We have to take care of her! ... Yes, there are many bureaucratic difficulties. ... But now a lot is improving, a lot will being better!"
Helly came into Kors' office.
'- Hello, boss!'
'- Hi, Helly!..'
'- ... Helly, bring me a package of documents in twenty minutes on the creation of a scientific research group (as part of our Center) on the topic: "Principles of designing and manufacturing a spacecraft engine for the space flight with a superheavy load." As a sample, take a standard package of documents on the creation of scientific research groups. The head of the group -you is. I'll sign - now - these papers. Some later you will hang up the plate and will prepare the first report. In two weeks, Mon San will be appointed the head of this group, and you will become her deputy. If she will set up a webcam and will work 24 hours a day (without breaks, without days off, without vacations), don't stop her. However, nobody can infringe or violate your personal labor rights. Be ready for internships at our leading universities and research centers, and for trips to our research partner countries. It's all. I'll see you in twenty minutes."
Kors took a deep breath of air filled with the smell of roses.
In half an hour he will go to a club to play lawn tennis.
Tomorrow, on his own yacht, he will go for a week - he needs a vacation - a voyage to Jamaica is planned.
During the sailing, on a deck, at the helm, under the splashes of sea, he will think about the 'Satus-E' project and about everything that is required for the implementation of this project.
