Chapter 380: Martian Immigration Officially Launched
In the future, if a science and technology company wants to build a huge space fleet mainly composed of "civilization-class" spaceships, the demand for resources is extremely terrifying; just taking the construction of a 50-kilometer-long and 12-kilometer-high "civilization-class" habitation ship as an example, it is conservatively estimated that 120 billion tons of steel will be consumed! What is this concept? You must know that the iron ore resources on the earth are relatively rich, with estimated geological reserves of more than 800 billion tons and proven reserves of more than 400 billion tons! However, with all the steel resources on the earth, only 6 such habitable ships can be built! It can also be seen that the more advanced the technology, the more terrifying the demand for resources!
In order to obtain the resources to build the space fleet, Future Technology has increased its efforts to mine in the solar system!
After mining in the past few years, the valuable asteroids in the asteroid belt have been mined, so Future Technology has targeted satellites such as Europa 1 Io, Ganymede 3, Ganymede, Calisto, Triton 1, and Titania! Don't underestimate these satellites, they are all big guys! The largest Ganymede has a diameter of 5,260 kilometers, which is much larger than Mercury and only more than 1,500 kilometers smaller than the diameter of Mars. www.biquge.info It is worth mentioning that Europa was first discovered between 400 BC and 360 BC (most likely in the summer of 364 BC) by Gander during the Warring States period of our country, more than 2,000 years before Galileo.
In addition to these satellites, Future Technologies is also heavily exploiting the resources of the Kuiper Belt.
The Kuiper Belt , named after the Dutch-American astronomer Gerard Kuiper , is a dense hollow disk-like region of the solar system near the ecliptic plane outside Neptune's orbit (about 30 AU from the Sun) that contains many tiny Xiaoice seals that are remnants of the original solar nebula and the source of short-period comets.
According to the exploration of Future Technology in recent years, there are at least 100,000 stars with a diameter of more than 100 kilometers, and the largest star discovered so far is Pluto. Yes, Pluto appeared in our textbooks for a long time as considered the eighth planet in the solar system, but with further observations, astronomers found that Pluto did not meet the definition of a large planet at all, so in 2006 Pluto was classified as a dwarf planet in the Kuiper Belt and expelled from the large planets!
Now, the entire solar system has become a mining ground for future technology companies, in which countless spaceships shuttle, mining resources, refining them into various raw materials, and carrying out vigorous development and construction.
This best era is also the beginning of an even better era!
All the employees of the future technology company are full of passion and enthusiasm! They are all working towards the same goal, that is: to get out of the solar system!
Future technology companies are developing majesticly, and China's development is also extremely rapid.
You have to admit that intelligent robots are much better than human beings in some aspects, especially in industrial and agricultural production; after the popularization of intelligent robots, the country's productive forces have grown faster than in previous years, and social profits and wealth are increasing sharply, and the same is true for grain! Now, China has helped Africa complete the transformation of the Sahara and other deserts, and as for the 4.1 million square kilometers of land it has obtained, all of it has been used to grow food. Although Mars is not yet suitable for human survival, genetically modified crops and other plants can already survive, and China has reclaimed millions of ordinary kilometers of farmland on Mars in one go for growing food!
Therefore, even if the country's population is now growing by more than 150 million people every year, there is no need to worry about a food crisis! Of course, this is not a waste, but to use this food to accelerate the development of Mars' marine ecology and further improve the environment of Mars. It is worth mentioning that because of the success Chinese of desert transformation, the African Federation now owns several million square kilometers of new arable land and has also purchased a large number of genetically modified crops from Future Technology Corporations, and there are no more cases of people dying of starvation.
China has also made great strides in education. At school, middle school students are holding models of various spaceships, mechas, etc., and constantly arguing with each other, many of which they have made themselves. The various academic terms they mentioned in their discussions, such as antimatter, quantum bubbles, how to implement memory storage, space warps, warp engine ideas...... It will make college students ten years ago feel ashamed. And the state has preferential treatment for students, as long as they study hard, they can reach level 1 contribution, and get genetic evolution fluid for free, now even primary school students have more than 90% of the injection of genetic evolution solution, and the probability of middle school students and college students injecting genetic evolution liquid has reached 100%, which makes China's new generation extremely excellent in physique, and comprehensively crushes foreign countries.
In fact, the outside world does not know that the children of the employees of the future technology company are more excellent, and the children of these employees are all studying in the schools founded by the future technology company, and can get in touch with the advanced knowledge that the outside world does not have, and even the wormhole theory can be learned, and the vision is different。 These outstanding teenagers can continue to replenish fresh blood for future technology companies.
Soon, a year and three months passed, and the unmanned space probe flew out of the Oort cloud, rushed out of the solar system, and flew towards various targets by inertia. (The solar system is centered around the Sun, followed by the eight planets and the asteroid belt in between, all of which are located on the ecliptic plane.) Beyond Neptune is the Kuiper Belt, which includes Pluto, Sedna, and Xena, spanning about 10 times the radius of Neptune's orbit. Beyond the Kuiper Belt is the Inner Oolt Cloud, which spans about 10 times the radius of the Kuiper Belt. Outer Oort Cloud is the outer Oort Cloud, which is also the outermost edge of the solar system, surrounding the entire solar system in the shape of a sphere with a radius of about 1 light year. Flying out of the Oort cloud is really flying out of the solar system. )
In the vast universe, unmanned probes continue to fly forward, and two years have passed, and in April 2030, the earth is boiling again, because Mars is already in line with the healthy living environment of human beings! Of course, it is in line with the healthy living environment of people who have been injected with the improved genetic evolution fluid! Without the injection of the improved genetic evolution fluid, it will not be able to perfectly adapt to the different gravity of the earth and Mars, nor will it be able to resist the cosmic rays that penetrate the Martian atmosphere.
In April 2030, the first volunteers traveled to Mars and lived without spacesuits for two months, undergoing daily check-ups that showed that they were in perfect health and had adapted to the Martian environment.
In June 2030, China officially announced the launch of the Mars immigration program, every Chinese citizen can apply for immigration, after the application is approved, you can take the national spacecraft to Mars for free, after arriving on Mars, everyone can get 10 acres of land permanent property rights, which can be passed on to future generations, and can also get a house that has been built, as well as a variety of daily necessities and production tools, of course, these things are advanced by the state, and they need to be repaid later, only the principal needs to be repaid, no interest. (To be continued.) )
