Chapter 936: How to Transform the Martian Atmosphere?
Although the success was tuned by the star core. After a play, Tang Feng didn't feel angry, on the contrary, Tang Feng was looking forward to the ability of the star core more and more.
As Tang Feng continued to adjust his goals, by now, upgrading the star core and leading the earthlings to extraterrestrial immigration have almost become Tang Feng's two parallel goals in the near future.
In fact, these two goals are also mutually reinforcing. If earthlings want to carry out extraterrestrial immigration, they cannot do without the improvement of the level of the star core. Because according to Tang Feng's estimation, after the star core is upgraded to level five, it has the ability to control the earth's ecosphere and adjust the climate change on the earth at will. And if the star core really becomes a sixth-level star core, will the star core have the ability to transform the climate and environment of a planet?
In Tang Feng's opinion, there was a great possibility that the magical star core would be able to do this. And if this hypothesis comes true, then human migration to extraterrestrial events will no longer be a matter of paper.
As early as 2010, the famous physicist Stephen Hawking once made a statement, that is, if human beings continue to develop at the current rate of development, then after 200 years, the earth will be overwhelmed by the weight of human beings, and it is very likely that it will eventually lead to a mass extinction event and remove human beings from the earth! Therefore, in 2010, Hawking has called on human beings to carry out extraterrestrial migration as soon as possible and plan in advance for the survival of mankind.
This may be a bit alarmist, but if you really think about it, it's a real possibility. Not to mention anything else, according to the current speed of human development, in 200 years, human beings are really very likely to fight because of the problem of resources, if they really grow mushrooms to play with each other, let alone one earth, even ten earths, it is not enough for these mushrooms. Wasted.
But extraterrestrial immigration, in terms of current human technology, is really a little impossible. Maybe it's okay to carry out small-scale migration, send ten or twenty people to other planets, with the current human technology, it is not difficult to do it, but if it is large-scale migration, it can only be hehe.
But if you want to ensure that the human species does not become extinct, the minimum number of extraterrestrial immigrants in advance cannot be lower than the red line of 14,000 people, otherwise it will send a few people to the alien planet, which will not help saving the entire human race.
But if you want to send 14,000 people to alien planets, this is simply a fantasy now. Not to mention the problem of transportation, the survival of so many people on an alien planet alone is a huge problem.
You know, alien planets are not like Earth, where humans can live freely. In fact, so far, human beings have really not found a planet that is exactly the same as the earth. Although as early as 2015, NASA used the Kepler telescope to find a planet with 98% resemblance to the Earth in the constellation Cygnus, 1,400 light-years away from the Earth, is this planet called "Earth 2.0" really suitable for human habitation?
In fact, even NASA experts who discovered the planet "Earth 2.0" are not sure about this matter. After all, even Venus, which is 40 million kilometers away from the Earth, has not yet been figured out by earthlings, so how can they figure out the situation of "Earth 2.0" 1,400 light-years away? What's more, with the current technology of human beings, how can they reach the "Earth 2.0" across a distance of 1,400 light years?
As a higher life, human beings need to meet extremely harsh conditions for survival, and life from scratch, from a fertilized egg to a mature life form requires a long process, which requires that the external conditions of the living planet must be safe and stable, such as continuous light, continuous liquid water, and continuous atmosphere.
In addition, the distance between the living planet and the sun should be moderate, for example, Venus and Mercury are too close to the sun, and no life can stand the heat; And Pluto and Neptune are far away from the sun, and it is estimated that even the Saint Seiya Binghe can't stand the cold; Some deeper requirements, such as the rotation and revolution cycles, the atmosphere, etc., are also necessary conditions for the existence of life.
Combining these conditions, the planet most likely to have the same life as the Earth is Mars, which is at a moderate distance from the Sun, has an autobiographical period of 24.6 hours, is almost the same as the Earth, and has a mass closer to the Earth.
But Mars' inability to recycle carbon dioxide into its atmosphere prevents it from producing the greenhouse effect, and its elliptical orbit with a temperature difference of 160 degrees Celsius between perihelion and aphelion has had a devastating effect on Mars' climate
But this planet is currently the only option for human beings to be most likely to carry out extraterrestrial immigration in a short period of time, so what should humans do?
If you want to really migrate these two planets, you must first transform the planet and transform the biosphere on this planet into a habitable state for humans, otherwise, humans will not be able to carry out large-scale migration.
But if you want to modify Mars, it is not something that can be done by human beings with current technology. So, speaking of which, if human beings want to carry out large-scale Martian migration in a short period of time, it is hehe
But with the advent of the star core, the situation has taken a turn for the better.
If the star core can control Mars as completely as it does the Earth, then there is a great possibility that Mars will be transformed.
First of all, the biggest problem on Mars right now is the atmosphere. Because Mars's own gravitational pull is small, the atmosphere is thin, and the carbon dioxide in it cannot be effectively circulated, which leads to the "greenhouse effect" of Mars is almost none, making the temperature on the surface of Mars very low, so if you want to transform Mars, you must first transform the Martian atmosphere.
Several methods have been proposed to modify the Martian atmosphere, including throwing large-yield mushroom bombs at the poles of Mars to melt the poles of Mars, thereby releasing a large amount of carbon dioxide frozen at the poles of Mars and increasing the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere;
Another way is to build a giant mirror that hovers behind Mars and reflects the sun's rays to Mars, thereby increasing the temperature of the Martian surface. Then there is the throwing of asteroids on Mars, and the most effective way is to push an asteroid weighing more than 100 billion tons to bomb the surface of Mars directly
Another way is to cover the poles of Mars with black soil, which is no different from throwing mushroom bombs at the poles of Mars
Of course, there are also proposals to use microorganisms to modify the surface of Mars to affect the Martian atmosphere. What's even more unreliable is that it is going to have a large-scale industrial revolution on Mars, using a large amount of carbon dioxide produced by the industrial revolution! Your sister, don't you want to think about it, how can you have an industrial revolution on the environment of Mars?
Anyway, if you want to modify the Martian atmosphere, you must first find a way to increase the carbon dioxide concentration in the Martian atmosphere.
In fact, there is some truth to the methods proposed above, but if you want to increase the carbon dioxide concentration in the Martian atmosphere, these methods are not necessarily the only ones, and there is a more effective way, which is a large-scale volcanic eruption (to be continued). )
