The equipment and materials Tang Rui had provided for the teams were all salvaged from devices he had previously upgraded.
Initially, there was no manpower available.
The item sat there, untouched.
Now that there were so many tools at hand, of course, he couldn't let them go to waste. So, he started the process of reverse engineering.
Reverse engineering in materials science was particularly challenging due to the complexity of the field. In other disciplines, it was not as difficult.
Take, for example, the Hall-effect thruster with a ten-kilogram thrust.
This piece of technology was considered cutting-edge.
After all, ion thrusters that had been developed so far weighed at the gram level, at most, not even reaching a kilogram.
Yet, this device was quite simple to reverse engineer.
Perhaps through this reverse engineering process, a few significant physics theories could be uncovered.
