Chapter 445: Venus Transformation Preliminary Results
In the 153rd year of the New Tang Dynasty, on the 21st day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, it took three and a half years for the New Tang Empire to finally build a super giant visor that could block Venus, and this giant visor could be moved by control.
This giant visor was named the shield by NTVOd, and the completion of the shield not only allowed Venus to remain exposed to the sun for 24 hours, but also allowed Venus to cool down quickly.
At the same time, the shield has also become the largest energy production center of the New Tang Empire, and even mankind at present.
Because the total area of the shield is about one-fiftieth of the surface area of Venus, what is this concept, the surface area of Venus is as high as 6.9 billion square kilometers (15 times larger), then one-fiftieth of it is 13.8 million square kilometers.
In the case of the large-scale photovoltaic base built by the New Tang Empire, a base is only 100 square kilometers, which means that one shield is equivalent to 1.38 million large-scale photovoltaic bases, which is terrifying.
In the eyes of the outside world, this is definitely a large-scale project in human history second only to the Pangu factory.
In fact, if it is really like a photovoltaic base on Aqua Blue, then it is impossible to build it in such a short time, and the shield here adopts a new type of stellar technology, which greatly reduces the difficulty.
That's why it can be built in such a short period of time, and its solar energy conversion rate is higher, it can already do 93, plus the shield receives sunlight twenty-four hours a day, so the power produced by the shield of the same area is nearly three times that of Aqua Blue.
This means that the shield is capable of providing approximately 2 to 21 trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity per year, which is more than the total amount of electricity currently produced by humans.
The shield has a wireless power transmitter that will provide the electricity it generates every year to the world's ships or the colony bases or space factories of the planets.
Even if the temperature of Venus drops down in the future and is transformed, the shield is not useless, it will fly to the sun, find a suitable position, become a satellite of the sun, and serve mankind for at least eighty years, if it can be maintained regularly, it can even serve mankind for one hundred and fifty years, or even longer.
The imperial study of Daming Palace.
As the saying goes, the big things discussed at the conference, and the big things decided by the small meeting, and most of the big things in the New Tang Empire were decided in the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, the shield has been officially operational, a year, no, it won't take a year, we humans will not be short of energy, and there will even be a surplus of energy, the minister wants to ask Your Majesty, is it possible to further reduce the price of electricity?" Zhang Xian, as the head of the cabinet, has many things to care about.
"There is no need, the empire's current electricity price standard is already very low, 01 Tang Yuan, for the people of the empire, there is no pressure at all, as for other countries, reducing the price of electricity, isn't it equivalent to reducing our profits? Li Quan said.
"Returning to Your Majesty, as far as the minister knows, in addition to the empire, the traditional way of producing electricity in other countries in the world still accounts for more than 40, which will not only pollute the environment of the water blue star, but also is extremely inefficient, so the minister suggested that by reducing the price of electricity in these places, they can be forced to give up the traditional way of producing electricity, which is not only environmentally friendly, but also in general, the profit of the empire is increased. Zhang Xian explained.
Li Quan calmly thought about the possibility of Zhang Xian's words.
Forget it, just take it as a way to protect Shui Lanxing and suffer a little loss for yourself.
"Elder Ge's suggestion is good, I agreed, but it can't be reduced too much, it can be a little lower than the local electricity price, and people may not accept our kindness, if you don't accept it, forget it, they will always have a day when their resources run out." Li Quan said.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister knows what to do. Zhang Xian nodded.
The current environment of Aqua Blue Star is getting better day by day, the ocean has been polluted in the past, garbage is floating everywhere, and landfills in various countries have become more and more serious.
However, as early as ten years ago, Nuvoton launched a new type of garbage degradation pool, and in ten years, most of the garbage has been recycled.
Many countries have even dug up their own landfill garbage again for recycling.
Now the water blue star, the sky is bluer, the water is clearer, and all this is the efforts of the New Tang Empire.
"Shen Congwen, what's the situation on Venus now?" Li Quan said to Shen Congwen, the secretary of the Ministry of Aerospace next to him.
"Back to Your Majesty, the role of the shield is very obvious, it has only been less than half a month, and now Venus has begun to rain, from the initial rain that evaporated when it fell to the surface, and now it can basically fall to the surface before it will evaporate. ”
"And according to our latest probe, the pressure on the surface of Venus has dropped by about half, and there is still about 40 atmospheres, because the rain falls on the surface and then evaporates, absorbing the temperature of the surface, and the current temperature of Venus is also falling rapidly, from the original 500 degrees, has dropped to about 360 degrees, and the concentration pressure of the atmosphere is slowly decreasing, overall the effect is very good, in line with expectations. Shen Congwen reported happily.
Li Quan nodded, his face full of smiles.
Venus has now been equivalent to half a month without the sun, if it happened in the water blue star, I am afraid that everything would have withered long ago, and there would be ice and snow everywhere, but Venus was like hell on earth because of the previous environment, which was too bad, and now it is negative and positive.
On the bright side.
It's not that with a shield, you can completely transform Venus, this is only the first step, the previous Venus, can't set foot at all, what they need to do is to let Venus be able to let humans set foot first, and then carry out the later environmental transformation, so that it can be suitable for human survival.
"By the way, haven't we been throwing comets and rock garbage into Venus, how is the change in the mass and diameter of Venus now?" Li Quan said again.
Shen Congwen replied, "Your Majesty, the surface before Venus is relatively flat, and we have put rocks and planets according to a certain position, and we have created a mountain plain that is higher than the surface of Venus and has an altitude of about 500 meters, with an area of about 850,000 square kilometers, and will continue to expand the area later." ”
"We are still in some of the original mountains of Venus, and by throwing asteroids down Venus to partially modify, we now have about 30 million square kilometers of an area higher than 500 meters. ”
Kindness.
Li Quan was very satisfied with this, because Venus and Aqua Blue were still a little different, and the New Tang Empire's transformation of it was relatively modest, without changing its crust and so on, so there would be no tectonic plate movement.
Then the surface condition of Venus will still be the same, in this case, after the rain falls, Venus will become a complete ocean world, and it is not a good thing that there is too much water.
Although life can be nurtured through the ocean, there is no need for human beings to exist, so they have a mountain-like existence that is higher than 500 meters.
But these mountains, which are high mountains now, will be plains in the future, and the surface of the earth will be the bottom of the oceans in the future.
Moreover, the ocean of Venus is destined to be larger than the water blue star, and the land of human beings needs to be slowly transformed.
