Chapter 497: Flying Out of Earth

On the 25th, after playing in the Dinosaur Park for two days, Ye Quan's family directly took the "Aurora" spaceship, rushed out of the constraints of the earth, and came to space.

The spaceship first circled the earth, allowing Ye Quan and the others to overlook the magnificent scenery of the earth through the huge transparent porthole in the command hall.

Ye Ni also wanted to find out where the location of Taoyuan Village was, but unfortunately, from space, the earth was not much bigger than a basin, and there were clouds and mist in some places, and with the ability of the naked eye, even the Great Wall in the "legend" could not be seen.

After the "Aurora" spacecraft docked with the space station, Ye Quan and others entered the space station for a visit.

As soon as they entered, everyone floated, because the 'Aurora' spaceship, as a fifth-level civilization spaceship, has an artificial gravity system.

Not to mention Ye Ting and Ye Ni sisters, even Ye Mingchang and Cao Shuyun also felt a burst of novelty, stretching their hands and feet comfortably in the air, thinking that it is no wonder that those rich people are willing to take out hundreds of millions of money for a trip to space.

Ye Ni floated in the air and paddled around on all fours like a swimmer, found a place to borrow strength, pushed hard, and slid forward like a fish to make her laugh.

After playing for a long time, Ye Ni said: "Brother, it's so fun here, when I go back Yaoyao, they will definitely envy me, if only they could come." ”

Ye Quan said with a smile: "Then after the New Year, you will come over to play again, and then call your friends." ”

Flowey, Ugly and Handsome Little Guy followed them to space this time, and for the first time they discovered that they could fly in the air without flapping their wings.

Under Ye Quan's unremitting cultivation, the three birds are now fourth-order spirit birds, with extremely high IQ, gathering together to chirp, sometimes the head of the bull is not the horse's mouth, and sometimes they can also have something to say. Simply communicate with each other like people.

If someone saw this, they would surely exclaim, "I saw a youkai!" ”

Ye Quan has even been to the major planets of the solar system, so he is naturally not surprised by weightlessness, and after floating for a while, he used his telekinesis to simulate the state of gravity around him, allowing himself to regain his free movement.

As a matter of fact. The experience of weightlessness is also novel at the beginning, no one wants to be in a state of weightlessness for a long time, not to mention all kinds of inconveniences in life, and it will also have a serious health threat to the human body.

This is also the reason why the future "Eastern Star" space city will use a circular rotation method to generate gravity.

As early as the first time he entered space, Ye Quan found that because there was no obstruction from the gravitational field and magnetic field, the search range of telekinesis would expand by tens or even hundreds of times in the universe, and the attack power would also increase by nearly ten times.

Mental power on Earth is influenced by many factors. To a certain extent, it is bound.

In space, with the strength of the "Sky Wolf" light armor, Ye Quan even had the confidence to challenge a fifth-level civilization space warship.

However, Han Yueying's spiritual power is not of much use in space, but the environment and novel experience that are completely different from the earth also give her great inspiration in perception.

The key to psychic abilities is to break through the limitations of the self, and the world is as big as the mind.

Ye Ting also discovered this, if on the ground. She's a C-class ability, so it's in space. Definitely has B-level strength.

She tried to use her telekinesis to move herself around, like an invisible giant hand that allowed her to make any movement in the air, like a fish in water.

In space, everything loses the restraint of gravity, so it doesn't matter if you eat or drink, wash your face and brush your teeth, or move and sleep. It's all different from the ground, which is very interesting for first-time attempts.

The living conditions on board the Aurora spacecraft are comparable to those of a five-star hotel, but with an artificial gravity system on it.

To experience sleeping in a weightless environment, Christmas Night. Ye Quan and the others stayed in the space station for one night, and the next day they set off for the moon, which is 380,000 kilometers away from the earth.

The gravity of the moon is only one-sixth of that of the earth, and ordinary people can jump out of ten meters when they come here, which is simply the best portrayal of light work, compared to the weightless environment of space, this is a different and novel experience.

It is said that the moon suit used by "Apollo" in the last century weighed more than 100 kilograms on Earth, and there were dozens of kilograms on the moon, wearing a bulky spacesuit, it was inconvenient for astronauts to even walk.

The spacesuit that Ye Quan asked his family to wear was specially made from the fourth-level civilization universal base in space, weighing about the same as a fur coat, and there was a layer of energy cover on the surface, which could eliminate dry lunar dust, and the oxygen supply time was also several days.

Ye Ni was wearing a sealed custom spacesuit, like a chubby wallaby, and after bouncing for a while, she finally got tired and said, "Why is it so strange on the moon, it's not beautiful at all, there is no big laurel tree, and there is no fairy sister and little white rabbit." ”

Ye Quan laughed and said, "When the Guanghan Palace is built next year, there will be a big laurel tree, and there will also be a fairy sister and a little white rabbit." ”

On the Moon, one day and night is equal to one month on Earth, and more than ten days are daytime and more than ten days are night.

I have to say that the moon is really desolate, not to mention any beautiful scenery, after seeing it for a long time, it seems to be the same.

Ye Quan and the others stayed for three or four hours, and then took off in a spaceship, passing through Mars on the way, and finally came to the secret mining base in the asteroid belt of the solar system.

The asteroid belt, which sits between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, is estimated to number as many as 500,000 asteroids, and the largest dwarf planet, Ceres, is more than 950 kilometers in diameter.

The reason why so many asteroids can be condensed in the asteroid belt is because the gravitational pull of the Sun and Jupiter plays a huge role.

It's a lot more fun than the moon, with all kinds of asteroids.

The earth's mineral resources are limited, and rare mineral resources are non-renewable.

The shortage of rare and precious metals has led to global inflation, the over-exploitation of resources has damaged the natural environment, and the competition for resources has caused the fuse of war.

The asteroid belt is the most promising area for human beings to exploit and utilize in the future.

There are about 1 million asteroids in the solar system that are rich in various metals. Including gold, platinum, gold, nickel and other rare and precious metal deposits.

Asteroid 16, for example, contains about 30 times more metal than all the metals mined in human history, with an estimated value of $70 trillion.

In addition, unlike the Earth, a living planet with an atmosphere, the mineral metals of asteroids are elemental metals and do not oxidize.

There are often such plots in martial arts novels, using a piece of meteoric iron from the sky, and then creating a peerless sword, which makes scientific sense.

Judging from the various iron meteorites we have found, they are basically high-purity iron blocks, which can be forged into sharp swords without any smelting.

There are also some natural gold meteorites, which are also high-purity gold.

Some space asteroids are themselves high-purity lumps of iron that can be transported to Earth and used directly.

Or, like Eros, a small golden star entirely.

The asteroid is 33 kilometers long and 13 kilometers wide, rich in gold, which is more than the amount of gold ever mined on Earth.

According to scientific research, gold on Earth fell 3.9 billion years ago, and that is only a small fraction of the gold in the asteroid belt.

An even more astonishing discovery was the star K Cancer, which studies have shown that the surface of the planet alone is rich in 100 billion tons of gold.

However, compared to Eros, K Cancer is out of reach because it is located 2,500 light-years from Earth.

In the universe, there are other metal elements that are rarer and more precious.

As for the gold in the solar system, Ye Quan didn't plan to mine much, after all, if there was more gold, it would be worthless, and Ye Quan could only store it secretly after mining, and it was impossible to put it into the market in large quantities.

It is estimated that the total value of rare metal mineral resources in the asteroid belt is about 10 trillion US dollars.

The world has a population of 7.4 billion, and each person can share more than $100 billion equally.

That is, in the asteroid zone, every person on Earth has $100 billion of wealth there.

With these mineral resources, it can fully meet the needs of human social development in the future.

Without Ye Quan's promotion, after the human race enters the third-level civilization, only by making use of the mineral resources of the entire solar system can the foundation be laid and hope to be promoted to the fourth-level civilization. (To be continued......)
