As soon as the phone was connected, Kerrwin's voice came from the other end of the line. In his voice www.biquge.info Jiang Chen could clearly hear a hint of excitement, thinking that it should be a good thing.

"The list has been decided, do you want to take a look?"

"What list?"

"The first colonists, or pioneers, to go to Mars to open up the wilderness. The equipment needed to colonize Mars was already in place last month, and the list of colonists was finalized at the end of this month. In a few days, the equipment and people will be transported to Star Ring City, and I guess you will be interested, why don't you come and visit?" Kirwin said with a smile.

"Wait for me at the experimental base, I'll be here in a moment. ”

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chen immediately got up from his chair and walked towards the door of the office.

However, as soon as he reached the door, the office door opened on its own.

I saw the beautiful secretary in professional attire holding coffee, and smiled sweetly when she saw him.

"Chairman, your coffee. ”

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he had just ordered a cup of coffee.

Looking at the white mist floating above the cup, it didn't look like it could be drunk in one gulp, Jiang Chen was silent for two seconds, and finally said embarrassedly.

"Well, you drank it for me. ”

……

Located in the northern part of Anjia Island, which is the aerospace training base, it has almost become the aerospace scientific research base of the new country and even the world, where there are aerospace technical talents from all over the world, astronauts who receive professional training, and aerospace volunteers who simply look forward to the depth of the starry sea.

The Mars Colony Experiment Base is also located here, but given the secrecy of the project, this scientific research center covering an area of nearly 100 acres seems deserted. It's closed to the public and tourists, and it's not open to interviews, and it's guarded by Warring Trade soldiers, like a military base.

A Rourka sedan stopped at the gate of the checkpoint, and after the soldiers identified the visitors, they respectfully stood up and saluted, gesturing to the checkpoint.

Entering the experimental base, Jiang Chen, under the leadership of Kerrwin's secretary, came to the experimental base.

Standing at the door of the test site, Kirwin looked at his watch, apparently having been waiting for a long time. As soon as they met, this guy greeted Jiang Chen warmly and gave Jiang Chen a bear hug, then stuffed the list into his hand, turned around and took the lead in the direction of the test site.

Although the lunar colony base has not yet been built, and the electric rays that have traveled tens of millions of kilometers have not yet returned, this does not prevent the warp trade from spreading seeds in further directions. The most important thing is that the ecological circulation system of the lunar colony base has provided a theoretical basis for the construction of the Mars colony base. Although the Ring Trade does not yet have a spacecraft that can travel between the Earth-Moon system and Mars, it is still possible to send a small number of people to Mars to build a colony outpost first.

It's certain to burn money, but after making so much money, isn't it just for burning?

At least Jiang Chen thinks that when the funds are rich, it makes much more sense to burn the money in the sky than to burn it elsewhere.

"Zhang Cheng, male, 27 years old. Profession: High school teacher. ”

"Chen Huaiyu, female, 28 years old. Occupation: Surgeon. ”

Duncan Farmiga, male, 31 years old. Occupation: Aerospace technical engineer, expert in astrophysics. ”

Christina Michelle, female, 27 years old. Profession: Painter ......"

“……”

Twenty people from different countries were selected from the list of 10,000 volunteers to be the pioneers of Mars and establish outposts for outer space colonization.

"Interesting, and soccer players? Is there a soccer field on Mars?"

While flipping through the personal information of the colonists on the list, Jiang Chen followed behind Kirwyn and visited the equipment displayed in the experimental base. In the past, the colonists would have trained here, but now they are enjoying their last vacation on Earth and saying goodbye to their family and friends on Earth.

"In order to understand the adaptability of people from different professions in the Martian environment and the psychological pressure, we will consider sending people from non-related professions when selecting colonists, and these are experiments...... Well, it's part of the colonization plan. Looking at this side, this is the colony unit, that is, the center of the future Martian colony, and the center of the ecological cycle device of the entire colony. It's weird, isn't it?" said Kirwin, grinning, revealing a mouth full of white teeth.

"It's like a sewage treatment plant. Looking at the rows of pipelines that were juxtaposed on the surface, as well as the main structure of the six-grid round egg, Jiang Chen looked at it with interest.

"Okay...... Your point of view is unique. Let's move on, and here are the small nuclear fusion generators. The Martian atmosphere is thin and there is no magnetic field to protect it, and although the helium-3 content in the soil is not as abundant as that of the moon, helium-3-rich areas can still be found. The only trouble is deuterium, which can only be sent from Earth. It seems that we must quickly find a way to solve the problem of third-generation nuclear fusion, and if fusion energy consumes only helium-3, the burden on the lunar colony will be much lighter. ”

"Research takes time, but I don't think it will take too long. Jiang Chen said helplessly.

Now the third generation of nuclear fusion is the main research project of Camp 27 on the end of the world, but so far not much progress has been made. Only scientific research is such a thing, he can't arrange a fixed schedule to come out, maybe tomorrow when he wakes up in the apocalyptic world, the research has made a breakthrough, or maybe this project is like the original warp engine, there is no movement for half a day.

Kerrwin shrugged his shoulders and continued to walk down, introducing Jiang Chen to the small prismatic house.

"This is the colonizer living unit, which is divided into four compartments for four families, connected to each other by pipes, and eventually to the colonial unit. ”

"This is?" Jiang Chen turned his gaze to the back of the living unit, which was a device shaped like an aquarium fish tank, and through the translucent outer wall, you could see thin round tubes side by side, and the round tubes were covered with thick moss, and the whole was soaked in the culture medium.

"This is the fungal culture room. A proud smile crossed Kirwin's face.

"Growing mushrooms?"

"Not really. Kirwin smiled, stepped forward and patted the giant mossy fish tank, and continued, "There are special strains that can survive in high carbon dioxide concentrations and low gravity environments, fixing carbon dioxide in the air into organic matter through photosynthesis, and producing oxygen at the same time. This thing can be used with an organic converter, and I have drunk the nutritional mixture produced by it, and the taste is okay. ”

"Drink a few more days and you'll want to throw up. After teasing Kerrwin, Jiang Chen looked at the device with interest, but at this moment, a doubt came to his mind, "I remember that photosynthesis consumes a lot of water, is there ice on Mars?"

"There's liquid water, but it's very thin, mostly soaked in the soil, and it's very salin, like brine. Luckily, we have the means to turn them into pure water. Through the analysis of rock erosion patterns and topography, we will select the landing site in the lacustrine sedimentary environment. Then we have to talk about this equipment," Kerwin walked over to a standing cylindrical cylinder and patted the silver-white barrel, "Centrifugal pumps, this thing is not very technical, but it definitely works on Mars."
