On March 18, Tianming came to the red giant star with a large number of earth supplies. {3.

Han Lei, the head of the Planning Department, found him and said, "Commander, the researchers of the Air Purification Research Institute have developed an atmospheric generator, you can go over and take a look." ”

Air Purification Institute.

The device that was placed in front of Tianming's eyes, which was almost the size of a washing machine, was the so-called "atmosphere generator".

Zhang Chao, director of the Air Purification Department, stood in front of this instrument and introduced to Tianming: "Commander, the atmospheric generator is developed on the basis of the air purifier, and it can be directly put into the purification device of solid purification......

Finally, through the magnetic field constraint and complex structure of the filter device, more than 100 kinds of elemental substances will be stored in the state of micro powder, hundreds of container boxes, these elements, there are gold, silver, copper, iron, sodium, calcium, manganese, cobalt and other dozens of metals, as well as carbon, boron, silicon, hydrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, chlorine and other non-metallic substances, all of which are pure more than 99% pure substances, it can be said that any complex structure of molecules, after entering this device, will be decomposed into the most primitive elemental substances.

In addition, the main function of the atmosphere generator is to convert the nitrogen and oxygen elements in the soil into nitrogen and oxygen, which are the components of the air, increasing the thickness of the atmosphere of the red giant and making it a planet suitable for human life! ”

Tianming said with a slight curiosity: "Let me see how this machine works first." ”

"Okay, Zhang Qi, Li Jia, you guys come over and do me a favor and start the atmosphere generator." Zhang Chao said to the two apprentices beside him.

"Yes."

Two apprentices walked over, one wiggling the buttons on the instrument. One of them brought over a metal box full of soil—the red soil collected from the surface of the Red Giant and now the main ingredient for the atmospheric generator.

After Zhang Qi put the metal box into the feeding port of the atmospheric generator, Li Jia was almost able to control the instrument at this time, so he turned on the power and pressed the button to start working.

Buzz ~~~

The Atmosphere Generator vibrates slightly, and goes into working mode.

Half an hour later, the machine stopped roaring, the work was over, and Zhang Chao began to order people to count the numbers.

"How? How much air is generated. Tianming leaned over and asked.

Zhang Chao held a report in his hand. Reading into the report: "Commander, the content of elements in the crust of the red giant star is very different from that of the earth, and after our investigation, we found that the abundance of elements in the crust of the red giant star is: oxygen 33.5%, silicon 21.2%, iron 8.1%, silver steel 6.7%, black steel 5.6%, aluminum 5.2%. Calcium 5.o%, magnesium 2.3%, potassium 2.2%, sodium 2.1% ...... Hydrogen o.24%. Nitrogen O.2%, phosphorus O.18%, and other elements 1.5%. There are 198 species of elements, including 13 elements that are not found on Earth. There are 6 types of Earth that have elements that are not found here, but overall, the planet is rich. There are elements in the earth's crust that fully meet the needs of the earth's plants to survive here.

Just now, our atmospheric generator purified a total of one kilogram of soil, and obtained 37o grams of oxygen, 1.8 grams of nitrogen, far more oxygen than nitrogen, and a large number of metal and non-metal elemental raw materials, which is not the result we wanted, the nitrogen content is too small. ”

Generally speaking, the oxygen content in the air has a range, when it is about 2o%, it will be more suitable for human survival, and it is not good if it is high or low.

The crust of a red giant contains far more oxygen than nitrogen, and if the atmospheric generator released oxygen and nitrogen from the soil natively, the oxygen content of the red giant's air would rise dramatically.

"We have also thought of a way to do this, Commander," Zhang Chao took Tianming to another square instrument that was also similar to a washing machine and said: "This is a nitrogen extractor that we have made that is only used for extracting nitrogen, this device has a simple structure, less energy consumption, and the efficiency of extracting nitrogen is faster, and the atmospheric generator to be used in the future is still more nitrogen extractor." ”

"But—"

Han Lei, who was standing next to Tianming, frowned and said: "The nitrogen content of the crust of the red giant star is still too little, a few tenths of a percent, relying on the work of the nitrogen extractor to extract nitrogen, at least hundreds of billions of tons of earth materials must be decomposed, and this work may not be completed in 100,000 years, the workload is too great." ”

Zhang Chao, who had always had a smile on his face before, also sighed and said: "Yes, it is too difficult to transform a planet, the amount of work is too huge, and it is simply not enough to have tens of thousands of years." ”

"Teacher, nitrogen is a simple substance that is easy to store in the atmosphere, and the crust of red giants is less abundant, so why not extract it from the atmospheres of other planets? Wouldn't that save a lot of work? At this time, Zhang Qi, Zhang Chao's apprentice, interjected.

Zhang Chao's eyes lit up, and he blurted out, "Other planets, from that planet?" ”

"Blue Mercury, the planet's atmosphere can almost be moved directly to the red giant."

"How? That's billions of tons of matter. ”

"Don't be lucky, isn't the commander able to establish a space gate, just open the space gate and put an extractor at the mouth of the space passage on the red giant star."

"Feasible! Totally doable! Zhang Chao became excited, and even praised his apprentice for being smart.

Tianming was actually thinking about this with half-squinted eyes, but he still shook his head and said: "It's no problem to pump air from other planets, but you can't pump it from Blue Mercury, if the air from Blue Mercury is drained and cause an ecological disaster, then the gain will outweigh the loss." ”

Han Lei also said: "The commander is right, Blue Mercury is close to the position of the star, the light is very strong, that thickness of the atmosphere, just enough to absorb the conditions of excess light, if the atmosphere of Blue Mercury is partially extracted, the thickness of the atmosphere will become thinner, which may lead to a rise in temperature and extinction of life." ”

"Then find other planets, find the kind of planets with thicker atmospheres and higher nitrogen content, and extract nitrogen from there!"

Han Lei thought about it for a while, he remembered that astronomer Wen Jichu told him that about 200 million kilometers away from the orbit of the red giant, there is a golden planet, which is extremely huge, about a hundred times the size of the red giant, a bit like Jupiter in the solar system of the earth plane, extremely bright in the sky, and when it is closer to the red giant, it looks even comparable to the moon on the earth.

At the same time, the probe has detected that the atmosphere of the Golden Planet is very thick, and the atmospheric pressure of the star surface is about 13o times that of the Earth, and the pressure is almost equal to the depth of 13oo meters in the seawater.

Astronomers also found that the main component of the atmosphere of the Golden Planet is carbon dioxide, but the content of nitrogen is also very high, conservatively estimated, it should be around 3o%, if the nitrogen on the Golden Planet is brought to the red giant, this is a good way.

Tianming ordered someone to call Wen Jichu over and asked, "Professor Wen, if we go to the Golden Giant Star Table, build a space gate, and then pump the atmosphere of the Golden Giant Star to the Red Giant Star, can we solve the problem of the lack of nitrogen in the Red Giant?" ”

Wen Jichu nodded: "Yes, surely!" It's just that we don't know what the specific content of nitrogen in the atmosphere of that planet is, if it is not less than 2o%, it has great use value, and it can completely extract the atmosphere over there! ”

Tianming nodded and said: "In this case, Professor Wen, you go and select a group of experts to come out, I will take a group of people to investigate where the Golden Giant Star is, without further ado, let them prepare and prepare, and I will take people to that planet tomorrow." ”

"Yes! Commander. Wen Jichu said excitedly.

After spending so much time on the red giant, I haven't been to any other planet except for the occasional trip to Blue Mercury for a few days, and I didn't expect to have the opportunity to go to a new planet now, which is undoubtedly an extremely exciting thing for an astronomer who can only see from the ground and can't go.

The means of transportation to the Venus is still a small interstellar spaceship "Starlight" built a long time ago, this spaceship Tianming occasionally drives a short space trip, but basically only around the perimeter, and now it has to make a long-distance trip of more than 200 million kilometers in a straight line, Tianming is actually a little excited in his heart.

In addition, the interstellar battleship that is still in the dock and is in the construction stage, the main construction work has been completed, and some time ago Tianming also helped build two nuclear fusion reactors with an electric power of 3o-5o million megawatts, and it stands to reason that it will be able to test flight soon, but this interstellar battleship with a tonnage of 450,000 tons is still too complicated, and it is impossible to fly into space and become a real interstellar battleship without functional debugging on the ground for more than half a year.

Back to the small space.

During the meal, Tianming told Sù's family that tomorrow he was going to drive a starship to a new planet, and I don't know if anyone wants to go and see it, and if there is, he can take him with him.

"A new planet? Where is it? Is there life on it? Li Yuhan asked curiously.

"It's also in this plane, I call it a gold giant, about 200 million kilometers away from the red giant, it's a barren planet, I don't know if there is life on it, I guess there isn't."

"Golden giant, I'm going, I want to go to that place to play, I want to take a spaceship!" Cheng Dong said excitedly.

"Aren't you going to play a game? It's a gang war in two days, and you still have time to go to other planets? Song Xueyao said.

"That's right, if I go away from the gang war, it is estimated that Ling Zhan will lose very badly, and I can't go." Cheng Dong turned his head to Tianming and said, "Brother Ming, forget it, I still won't go." ”

"Husband, the small space is too boring, I want to go to that planet with you to play." Meng Xinyi said.

"I'm going too!"

"I want it too!"

In the end, among the family members, in addition to Cheng Dong and Song Xueyao, who want to play games at home, there are a few who want to stay at home and take care of the children, Meng Xinyi, Lan Luo, Tianlin, Xiaojuan, Li Yuhan plus grandparents, a total of seven people, packed up their things, and decided to go to the Golden Superstar to play with Tianming for a few days.
