Chapter 1021: Pressurizing the Martian Core

The core of Mars is somewhat different from the Earth's core. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The first is the volume aspect. The radius of the Earth's core is almost 3,500 kilometers, while the radius of the Martian core is only about 1,400 kilometers. In fact, the Earth's core is really larger than the entire Mars......

Secondly, the constituent substances between the two are also different. The Earth's core is mainly composed of heavy metals such as iron and nickel, while the main component of the Martian core is iron sulfide.

The third and most important point is that the earth's core is divided into two layers, the inner layer is a solid iron-nickel core, and the outer layer is a molten iron-nickel flow layer, which can easily maximize the "generator effect". The Martian core, on the other hand, has only one layer, and it is an almost completely solidified iron sulfide core.

Because there is no molten material in the outer layer of the Martian core, it cannot communicate with the Martian mantle, and it is impossible for molten matter with molten iron as the core to flow, and it is impossible to generate a strong electric current. Therefore, the interior of Mars cannot generate a strong magnetic field.

Therefore, if you want to transform Mars, the first thing is to make the Martian core completely "live".

Tang Feng controlled the star core split, using powerful dark energy to start pressurizing the Martian core.

Because the mass is much smaller than that of Earth, the pressure inside Mars is not as strong as it is inside Earth. In order to make the Martian core "live", it is necessary to let the outer layer of the Martian core begin to slowly melt, and finally let the solid Martian core form a double-layer Martian core with a structure similar to the Earth's core.

Under the control of the star core, the huge dark energy is like an invisible hand, passing through the Martian crust and the Martian mantle more than 2,000 kilometers thick, and then transforming into a huge pressure, starting to "massage" the Martian core from all directions and angles.

The dark energy in the universe is omnipresent and inexhaustible. This process of pressurizing the Martian nucleus is extremely energy-intensive. If the star core didn't completely control the dark energy now, Tang Feng would be reluctant to waste such energy.

It is not possible to pressurize a large metal ball with a radius of 1,400 kilometers to melt it in a day or two, even if the star core controls the dark energy. This way of increasing pressure can only be done by a relatively gentle means, and it cannot be increased too violently all at once, otherwise, before the pressure reaches that level, the Martian core will be pinched and exploded......

According to the results given by the base's main control computer, in order for the Martian core to produce a "generator effect", it is necessary to at least make the Martian core about 400 kilometers thick outside it become molten. In this way, there will be enough molten material in the Martian core and the outer layer of the Martian mantle material to produce material exchange.

And for the outer layers of the Martian core to melt, at least a pressure of more than 1.3 million atmospheres is needed! What is the concept of pressure? It is about one square centimeter of area, and it has to bear 1,300 tons of weight, which is converted into square meters, that is, one square meter has to bear 13 million tons.

Under this pressure, even diamonds can become butter-like......

In fact, in the interior of Mars, the pressure itself is also very large, although it has not reached 1.3 million atmospheres, but it is close to 1 million atmospheres. Therefore, the work that Tang Feng needs to do is to add a fire to this foundation, and finally make the already solidified Martian core boil again.

This work will last at least a week, so taking advantage of this opportunity, Tang Feng began to control the star core to start other "supporting" renovation projects.

The first is to continue to increase the concentration of carbon dioxide in the Martian atmosphere.

Although carbon dioxide in the Martian atmosphere occupies an absolutely dominant position (95.3%), the density of the Martian atmosphere is too small, which also leads to the fact that the amount of carbon dioxide in the Martian atmosphere is not very large, coupled with the extreme lack of crustal plate movement on Mars, so it is impossible to produce an effective flow of carbon dioxide, which ultimately leads to the carbon dioxide in the Martian atmosphere Although it occupies an absolutely dominant position, this excellent greenhouse gas cannot insulate the entire Mars.

Because the temperature on the surface of Mars is too low, it has triggered a series of chain reactions, the first of which is that the liquid water and carbon dioxide on Mars are very easy to freeze.

The ice caps at the poles of Mars are not solid water, but dry ice - solidified carbon dioxide.

And in the early days of Mars, the climate and temperature of Mars at that time were still very good, so the carbon dioxide on Mars, like the Earth, was mostly contained in rocks. As a result, the lack of tectonic plate movement on Mars prevents the release of this carbon dioxide, and the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is frozen due to low temperatures, resulting in a serious shortage of carbon dioxide in the entire Martian atmosphere.

To solve this problem is basically impossible for human beings today. But for the star core, it's easy.

Isn't it just the movement of tectonic plates? This is simply commonplace for the star core.

A little bit of the energy of the star core is enough to cause an uproar on Mars, whether it's an earthquake or a volcanic eruption......

Then, nearly 100 million kilometers away on Earth, it was suddenly discovered that the whole of Mars began to boil.

The first is that the famous extinct volcanoes on Mars have begun to erupt.

Like the famous Mount Olympus, the largest volcano in the solar system, even bigger and taller than the Great Tamu Volcano, like the large volcanoes on the Tarsis uplift that landed this time, like the big volcanoes on the other side of Mars, after being silent for billions of years, almost at the same moment, they began to roar again.

The entire interior of Mars seemed to be completely boiling at this moment, and the incalculable volcanic lava material and a large amount of volcanic ash and volcanic gas, at this moment, through the dozens of large volcanoes that were tens of thousands of meters high, began to erupt violently.

The huge impact force of the eruption is not at all something that those craters that have been dead for billions of years can resist, and almost all the volcanoes have been cut in half at the moment of the eruption.

For example, Mount Olympus, the highest mountain in the solar system, which was originally 27 kilometers high, was rapidly descending at a speed visible to the naked eye in the violent eruption, and in less than a day, the highest mountain in the whole solar system became shorter than Mount Everest.

Bright red molten material erupted from the crater and flowed down the steep mountain in all directions, and the hot lava easily heated the surrounding air to an unbelievable temperature, and the rising heat even distorted the vision, and Mars, which was almost a global eruption, became a twisted planet at this moment.

ps: I'm going to go out early tomorrow morning to run errands, so I'll rush out two chapters tonight, so let's send them out first. (To be continued.) )
