Chapter 245: The Homeland Project

This fishpond on Mars, Wei Ming plans to contract it all.

No one can oppose it.

And considering that he was very easy, he found a lot of water under Mars.

The most conservative estimate is that there is nothing wrong with immigrating 1 million people in the future.

Then you can build several colonies on the surface of Mars that resemble black hole towns, with a giant tower in the middle, and then use the tower as a support to build a hemispherical closed ecosphere, so that the environment in the ecosphere is suitable for human habitation, and agriculture can be developed to achieve self-sufficiency.

Then use these colonial cities as a base to vigorously exploit the mineral resources on Mars and collect more water.

Furthermore!

The asteroid belt, which has more than 500,000 meteorite resources, is between the orbit of Mars and Jupiter, and is closer to Mars, even less than 50 million kilometers at the nearest point.

The so-called building near the water gets the moon first, and Mars is the base, which can more easily mine meteorites in the asteroid belt.

If the mining of meteorite resources is not enough.

Yes!

A little further on, Jupiter, 2 to 3 astronomical units (AU) away from the asteroid belt, is the largest planet in the solar system and the most resource-rich.

Jupiter has a mass of one-thousandth the mass of the Sun and accounts for about 70% of the mass of all the planets in the solar system.

The main component is hydrogen, which accounts for 75% of its total mass.

In addition, there are a large number of moons around Jupiter, and there are eight with a diameter of more than 100 kilometers, of which Europa, Europa, Ganymede, and Ganymede are all more than 3,000 kilometers in diameter, which is almost comparable to the moon and Mars.

Europa is recognized by scientists as "the most promising place in the solar system for life" except for blue stars, because Europa has a layer of ice sheet up to 100 kilometers thick on its surface, in addition to the clayey minerals that can breed new life.

Beneath the ice sheet is an underground ocean that covers the whole world, 96 kilometers deeper than the deepest ocean of Blue Star, and contains a huge amount of liquid water resources.

Europa's atmosphere is rich in oxygen, which is not biologically formed, most likely due to the impact of charged particles in sunlight on Europa's icy surface, producing water vapor, which is then split into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen detached, leaving behind oxygen.

Scientists have shown that Europa's ocean is absorbing a lot of oxygen, much more than previous simulations had predicted. Scientists believe that this oxygen is enough to support multiple life forms, and theoretically there should be at least 3 million tons of fish-like organisms in Europa's oceans.

Therefore, as long as the resources on Jupiter and its moons are developed, at least more than 100 times the living space for human beings can be opened up, and there is no problem in meeting the resource needs of trillions of people.

It's entirely possible to build a huge new home around Jupiter.

Therefore, the direction and route of development are clear and clear.

Take Mars first.

Mars is then used as a springboard to develop minerals in the asteroid belt.

If you still don't feel like it's enough, take Jupiter and its surrounding moons to build a huge human home.

It can be called "Three Steps of Interstellar Colonization in the Solar System"

If all of them are realized, there will be no problem in increasing the number of resources that human beings can enjoy by a hundredfold.

If Wei Ming's black hole group occupies the extremely important key node of Mars in advance, although it will not affect the final realization of "Three Steps", the one who benefits the most must be the black hole group.

……

Black Hole Cosmos Development Corporation.

High-level strategy meeting.

Wei Ming put forward his idea and said: "Is it possible that in the next ten years, we will open up about 10 colonies on Mars, build 10 colony cities, immigrate about 1 million high-quality people, establish a basic self-sufficient industrial system, realize our company's absolute control of Mars, and build a private home that belongs to us without any questioning?" ”

Ten years, millions of people?

Everyone present looked at each other, trying their best to digest this information.

Wu Chenwu looked embarrassed, the big boss was putting satellites again, he had to say: "Mr. Wei, our air-space shuttle 'Pioneer' is estimated to make its first flight by the end of this year, and through the electromagnetic catapult orbit, it can send up to 10 tons of materials to space at a time." ”

"The number of launches of the Pioneer should reach 100 next year and 1,000 the year after...... In five years, it should be able to reach about 10,000 launches per year. ”

"But even if it is launched 10,000 times, it will not only transport 100,000 tons of materials in space."

"You said that one million people will be sent to Mars within ten years, we assume that every time one person is sent to Mars, about 100 tons of various materials need to be consumed, and one million people is 100 million tons, and this is only the material resources to reach Mars, and the consumption on the road is not included, if it is also counted, even if it is N5 total nitrogen fuel, it must need more than one billion tons, so ......"

Wei Ming's idea is not realistic at all, and it is more than 10,000 times worse.

"Unless you wait for controlled nuclear fusion to be realized, use a large colonial spaceship, transport millions of tons of materials at one time, carry tens of thousands of people, and make a few more trips, Mr. Wei, your idea can be realized, but I personally think that this will have to wait at least until after 2050."

Chief Engineer Long Tianhao said...... Long Tianhao is a top engineer who has perfectly executed a number of space programs, such as the famous "Beidou-3 Satellite" and "Chang'e Lunar Exploration", all of which are served by him as the first deputy chief engineer, and he is only 58 years old this year.

He jumped from the space group to the Black Hole Space Development Company in June this year (his job change caused a shock within the space group, which is not listed here), and is still in the investigation period, many insider information is not clear, and the cognitive system is still relatively old.

"What if I solve the material problem for you?"

Wei Ming opened his mouth and said: "100 million tons of supplies is not too much, there is water in those places on Mars, I can also provide a few detailed coordinates...... If I help solve all these problems, can you train 1 million qualified and high-quality talents to meet the needs of immigrants, and then send them to Mars in spacecraft? ”

Wei Ming's meaning is very clear and clear.

It's similar to the so-called chicken game, they provide personnel, just land with a parachute, Wei Ming provides all the supplies and equipment, and prepares enough 'supply boxes'.

"No problem at all, Mr. Wei!"

Wu Chenwu's eyes lit up, and he immediately said: "There are five or six million undergraduate graduates in Huaguo every year, and we will recruit one or two million to come over and train them well for three or five years, and one million high-quality immigrants will not be a problem at all...... Huaguo lacks everything, but there is no shortage of high-quality talents, so don't worry about Mr. Wei. ”

"If you don't think about returning, if you just send people over one way, it's no problem to send one million in ten years." Another expert said.

"That's good!"

Wei Ming clapped his head and said: "It's decided, I will solve the materials, you will solve the personnel, and the Black Hole Group's "Mars Home Plan" will be launched!" ”

"Yes!"

Long Tianhao followed everyone and said.

However, he still felt that this plan was too hasty, and even child's play.

First of all, I don't know how 100 million tons of materials were transported to Mars, but no one questioned the experts present; It is a good way to train millions of college graduates, but all one-way immigrants go to Mars, not to mention whether those college students are willing to immigrate, in case the safety redundancy design is insufficient, something happens, and a large number of landing into boxes?

Isn't this a joke on human life?

Seeing that he was a little resistant, and questioned and criticized him many times in private, Wu Chenwu talked to him once, and said some inside stories in his ear, and the doubts in his heart were suddenly dissipated, and some were just looking forward to it...... Of course, that's an afterthought.
