His behavior was a hundred times more sincere than Bill Gates’ so-called naked donation, commonly known as a foolish spender.
But he did it anyway, and for sixty years.
Having re-established a good foundation in the field of Applied Physics, Rainer, who had finally liberated himself from his influence, once again gave up everything and joined him.
This time, Harrison Clark didn’t send Rainer away but let him stay as his official research assistant.
Yes, this time Harrison Clark not only invested money but also people, plunging into the laboratory himself and leading the development of the power engine.
Although he seemed to have never received systematic learning and his ideas were often very whimsical, the directions he pointed out were basically correct.
Even if his steps were often too big, and the researchers under his command could not possibly reach the endpoint he required, they still left many useful results along the way.
Under Harrison Clark’s unrestricted investment, the aerospace industry caught up and quickly overtook the energy, computer, new materials, and internet industries, eventually leaving them far behind.
In those sixty years, Harrison Clark launched Elite Army 001 and 002 in 2060, the year he married Carrie Thomas. These two spacecraft followed Voyager 1 and 2 directly into space.
Four years later, Elite Army 001 and 002 flew out of Pluto’s orbit and entered deep space, gradually disappearing without a trace.
Although part of the previous investment was still appreciating, Harrison Clark’s personal assets shrank from 240 billion to 170 billion.
In 2071, Harrison Clark launched Elite Army 003 and 004, which had more powerful energy, greater storage capacity, and stronger signal transmission capabilities. Six years later, Elite Army 003 and 004 still followed their predecessors. Harrison Clark’s personal assets shrank to 110 billion.
His crazy firework-setting behavior began to be ridiculed by the world.
However, it wasn’t entirely useless. After all, with the development of cutting-edge technology in the aerospace industry, many ancillary products gradually entered ordinary people’s homes, becoming practical technologies that improved social productivity and ordinary people’s quality of life.
But people’s hearts would change, and even the supportive aerospace industry of various countries gradually wanted to back out, feeling that his fireworks display was too meaningless.
If it were the previous timeline, Harrison Clark might have been abandoned again. Fortunately, this time his achievements were too high and his personal prestige was too strong. After ensuring that he would no longer set off meaningless fireworks, Harrison Clark barely regained control of the situation.
Everyone thought he had settled down completely, but they didn’t expect that he had been working on a big plan.
2103.
After bidding farewell to Carrie Thomas, who had been with him for 82 years, Harrison Clark launched the Elite Army 005, which consumed all of his remaining personal assets.
This was the largest spaceship in human history, equipped with the latest solar wind and cosmic radiation harvesting system, retractable solar panels, a newly developed medium-sized nuclear fusion reactor, an engine that could expel supermassive particles, a small-scale ecological system that could provide enough food for 100 people, various multi-functional intelligent auxiliary robots, amplified radio signal transmitter and so on.
The Elite Army 005 was so well prepared and still received support from countries around the world because, according to the plan, the spacecraft would fly straight to Proxima Centauri four light-years away, carrying an orangutan, a dog, a turtle, insects and various types of plants.
Theoretically, it would run out of energy in 150 years, then begin gliding through space and reach Proxima Centauri b in 600 years.
Of course, these animals wouldn’t survive until the day Elite Army 005 arrived at Proxima Centauri. People just wanted to know whether the isolation layer of Elite Army 005 could block the unknown cosmic radiation in the deep space environment and how long the spacecraft could fly reliably, built with the wisdom of contemporary mankind.
The ultimate standard for determining reliability would be when all the animals and plants on board died unexpectedly.
Such research was indeed meaningful, allowing humans to know how far they could go in deep space and guiding future actions to explore the universe further.
But three days after the launch of Voyager No. 5, when the spacecraft was about to skim past Mars’ orbit, people noticed a problem. Master Harrison Clark was missing.
Later, they realized that the “orangutan” who had been eating and sleeping in the ecological system for three days took off its disguise mask and revealed a face that looked like a 60 or 70-year-old man, not a centenarian.
He blinked his eyes triumphantly, then easily regained control of Voyager N0.5, adjusted the orbit direction, and Elite Army 005 chased after Voyager 2 again.
“Everyone, I’m leaving. Don’t miss me.”
Harrison Clark himself became both amused and distressed when he watched this video a thousand years later.
I am a real show-off!
Harrison Clark felt that his behavior had been a bit out of control since his “departure.”
No, completely out of control!
Before leaving, he had planned well, took care of almost everything he needed to, and was ready to shift his focus to aviation and aerospace. Then, he could enjoy life peacefully, showing off quietly while watching others work hard for his money.
The main implementation of the plan was basically without a problem, but he was the one who lost control.
Where was his promised relaxing and peaceful life?
He personally participated in the advancement of every project..
