Chapter 364: The Battle of Lunar Resources

Qian Yifan was very excited to hear such good news, but Qian Yifan also understood that this was Du Ruolan's high trust in her. In fact, Qian Yifan once showed an extraordinary insight and special endurance. In the process of capturing Red Shadow, she played a central leadership role. Although Jiang Yaqing's sacrifice made Qian Yifan painful and sad for a long time, she was more contemplative and reflective on her own mistakes and too cautious, and did not have Liu Yiyi's calm and decisive personality. In order to do a better job, Qian Yifan did a lot of investigative work. Through the Internet, Qian Yifan has learned about Professor Na Linwan's thoughts and dreams.

She remembered that Narin Bay had told them about the idea of a time train. At the time they just felt like a fantasy. Unexpectedly, now, Professor Na Linwan put it on the agenda of the first research. The most difficult problem to solve in the development and construction of the space ark and the construction of the time train is the problem of what kind of energy to use. Realistic energy sources, including coal, oil, natural gas, solar energy, etc., the most promising of which is solar energy. However, storing and converting solar energy is a big challenge. As a result, scientists turned their attention to atomic energy, that is, nuclear energy. Scientists use the fission of atoms to obtain energy.

We all know that heavy nuclei such as uranium-235 and plutonium-239 usually fission into two medium-mass nuclei after neutron bombardment, while releasing 2-3 neutrons and 200 megaelectron volts of energy. Here it is necessary to explain the structure of matter. Some substances are made up of molecules, which in turn are made up of atoms. Some substances are directly composed of atoms. But an atom must be made up of a nucleus and electrons. The nucleus, in turn, is made up of protons and neutrons. Some of the neutrons released in fission are lost in the fission system, while some continue to undergo heavy nuclear fission reactions. Of course, it is the neutrons that continue to bombard the nuclei of heavy atoms. As long as the number of neutrons split in each fission is more than one on average, that is, the neutron appreciation coefficient is greater than 1, then nuclear fission can continue, and after one reaction after another, the total number of neutrons from fission increases exponentially, and the energy produced also increases dramatically. If left unchecked, eventually, the fission system will become a violent chain fission reaction.

It should also be noted that Qian Yifan also learned that in this kind of heavy nuclear fission reaction, the reactor system will continuously release huge amounts of energy, which can be used to convert it into different other energies. Such as mechanical energy, electrical energy, thermal energy, and so on. If nuclear energy is used for power energy, it can achieve a role that cannot be replaced by coal, oil, natural gas and other energy sources.

Qian Yifan also learned that not only can the nucleus produce huge energy in fission, but also the nucleus can also release huge energy in the reaction of fusion. This type of substance is like hydrogen. The isotopes of hydrogen are light nuclei such as deuterium and tritium, which can carry out fusion reactions. At the same time as the fusion reaction of the light nucleus, a huge amount of energy is released. A fusion reaction is a reaction in which the nuclei of charged atoms are polymerized. The nuclei participating in the reaction must have enough kinetic energy to overcome the electrostatic repulsion and move closer to each other, and the fusion reaction is possible. Increasing the temperature of matter is an important way to increase the kinetic energy of a large number of atomic nuclei. A fusion reaction is a thermonuclear reaction. Thermonuclear reaction is the heating of fusion nuclear material to more than tens of millions of degrees Celsius to cause nuclear fusion reaction.

According to Professor Nalinwan's analysis, the nuclear power of alien spacecraft such as spacecraft and saucer ships uses nuclear fission reactions or nuclear fusion reactions to provide power. It is precisely the metal left and metal right that are not found on the earth that are a kind of ultra-efficient nuclear material. Narinwan estimates that one of the two substances, the left and the right, must be a nuclear fission reaction, and the other is a nuclear fusion reaction. It is like the right and left hands of man, which are both relative and opposite; It is not only symmetrical, but also oppositional and repulsive. Narinwan said that these are two strange and miraculous substances discovered by aliens. If the earthlings master this technology and can mine huge metal left and right ores, it will definitely be a nuclear industrial revolution.

From the simple Stone Age to the Neolithic Age, it was a handicraft revolution; Later, human beings invented machines and entered the era of mechanical industrial revolution; Later, human beings invented electricity and entered the industrial revolution in the electricity age; At the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, mankind entered the era of electricity and networking, and realized the industrial revolution of wireless networks. The continued development of mankind is to develop the resources of the universe to serve mankind, and mankind will inevitably enter the new energy industrial revolution, that is, the nuclear energy industrial revolution. Nuclear energy is indispensable for use in industry, commerce, agriculture, national defense, and space development.

Therefore, the competition for and possession of huge nuclear energy resources has become a new pattern of world competition. Earth's resources are, after all, limited. All countries on Earth are looking into space. And space is endless, only the Moon is the closest satellite planet to Earth. The future Star Wars is not a devastating nuclear weapons show-off war, but a high-tech development of lunar resources, a plundering war of resources.

Whether it is a lunar exploration project or a lunar spacecraft; Whether it is a space station or a moon base, it is all about exploring new energy sources and living space. Qian Yifan felt more and more that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. Today, the moon is not only inhabited by a large community of aliens, but also by some earthlings. Earthlings all came to the moon with a special mission. They are to conduct scientific expeditions, scientific research, scientific experiments, and scientific construction on the moon.

The mysterious Blue Nation from the planet West Beta turns out to be hiding a huge secret on the moon, but no one knows what this secret is. The Blood Wolves from Golden Wolf, the Cloud Nation from Vega in Andromeda, and the descendants of people from a country on Earth have established a powerful Wahe Nation, all of which live on the moon or temporarily reside on the moon with different missions. The background is complex and the relationships are complex. Qian Yifan thought that what the captain Liu Yiyi said was right, competition and competition are indispensable, and they cannot be avoided. Her foresight and approach are more correct, that is, to understand them thoroughly, to investigate their intricate relationships and ulterior motives.

Now the captain doesn't know where to get lost. She said that she was looking for Waheguo, did she find it? If so, then why did you lose contact with the Savage Mountain base? If they didn't find the Wahe Kingdom, then where did they go? Why don't you get in touch too? The last thing Qian Yifan wants is to let the captains don't have an accident!

Hey, Vice Captain, there's a suspicious object moving below! Na Feifei immediately reminded Qian Yifan: It seems to be a running animal.
