Chapter 482: Hesitation and Confusion
Once again, it took seventeen years to break free from the shrinkage effect, and at first they came to the end of this journey of tens of light-years, a vast star system of blue dwarfs and twenty planets.
"Wow, it's so rich, so much matter, it's the first time I've seen so many planets in a star system."
As soon as they arrived, some collectors used their own high-power radar to detect the environment in the star system, and they couldn't help but sigh like this.
"Don't be too happy, if the environment is very bad, we can only develop from the outermost meteorite belt first."
"Even if the planets are bad, don't there be moons? The existence of so many planets shows that the mass of this star system is very rich, and there must be moons in a certain orbit among the more than 20 planets. ”
"But there is also the possibility that there is no satellite, to put it bluntly, it is still a matter of probability, first confirm the following situation and then sigh, otherwise there will be a gap in mood."
The gatherers communicated with each other, rapidly approaching the star system, their speed was one-fifth of the speed of light, although it was free from the influence of the star rainbow effect, but the speed was not slow, at least if this speed was in the Milky Way, it could easily get rid of the gravitational pull of the Milky Way and move between rivers.
Radar waves are emitted from the collector over and over again to accurately grasp the distance and relative position of the meteorite belt at the edge of the star system, and at the same time export the hydrogen gas mass to the front, gradually slowing down in the release of high-energy gamma rays.
After some time, they first entered the blue dwarf star system, and at the same time they detected detailed data on the planets, they also determined the number of moons in the star system.
"Isn't it? Is it really so little? There are only three moons in the entire star system."
"There are many planets, and there is gravity between them, and this complex gravitational environment may be the reason for the scarcity of satellites."
"Maybe"
"Fortunately, there are some Earth-like planets in the normal temperate zone, and it seems that there is abundant liquid water on the surface, which is very suitable for our development."
After planning the development of this star system in the channel, the collectors decided to split up in order to speed up the development of the resource.
"The blue dwarf star of this star system is also a large-scale individual in the star, with high energy and strong radiation, remember to monitor your body temperature when you start work, and don't let your body overheat, which is very dangerous."
"That's all you need to pay attention to, let's get started!"
At the beginning, I reminded the individuals of my clan of some precautions and ended the conversation, and the collectors answered in unison.
"Good!"
Energetic gatherers drive antimatter propulsion with little power toward moons and terrestrial planets, which are the best planets to start with.
Because of the distance, the collectors heading for the satellite were the first to reach their destination, and the collectors who have already been updated do not need to take the risk of landing on the satellite like the original colonized star system, nor do they need to adjust their orbit and repeatedly use the gravitational slingshot.
After determining that the satellite has no atmosphere, the collector drops a tentacle growing from the side of the body to the surface of the satellite.
If the tentacles are not long enough, then the distance between them and the satellite is shortened, and if there is no atmosphere, there is no need to consider friction, and the rest is only to see if the velocity can form enough centrifugal force to resist the gravitational pull of the satellite.
After the tentacles come into contact with the surface, the collector will also be able to know the elemental composition of the satellite surface, and the proportion of the elemental composition can be roughly calculated in a circle, which is more accurate and reliable than any complex means such as remote observation and derivation of mathematical models, after all, this is direct contact with the real thing.
"There's a lot of dry ice and methane, and it seems that this satellite is extremely carbon-rich, but it's a pity that the water element content is very small, not even one percent."
The collectors disliked the satellite, water is one of the dominant elements in amoeba technology, and technology is built on cells, and a large part of cells need water to be composed.
Sarcomas break away from sublight-speed organisms and fall to the cold surface of the satellite, where they bounce back dozens of times before they settle on a mixture of solid methane ice and dry ice.
Just like what the Gatherers did on other colony moons, they first stabilized a stronghold in a cryogenic environment, and then expanded according to this stronghold, gradually gaining control over the satellites, and mining a large amount of material.
Of course, the absence of water is a difficult problem, because the multiplication of cells does not come out of nothing, they need water, even ice.
Just when the collector was considering whether to use liquid methane to temporarily replace the role of liquid water, it captured a group of entities in its own bioradar that were approaching the satellite at high speed to its current orbit, these entities were pieces of ice, and after the collector shared the data with other members of the same family, the other individuals of the same family judged that the development of the satellite needed water elements according to the distribution of elemental resources, so they launched these ice cubes early.
After intercepting the ice, the ice is successfully extradited to the surface of the satellite, followed by a wanton expansion of the number to wrap the entire satellite.
At the same time, the Gatherers have set up cannon arrays to shoot large amounts of dense carbon at planets on other planets that require carbon for their satellite.
The relay movement between planets intensifies in this synergy, and over time, the satellites will be gradually dismantled in this situation.
The development and construction of the star system is in full swing.
However, it cannot be said that all of them are like this, there is such a planet of gatherers, who are entangled in the fact that they want to dismantle the terrestrial planet they are on and join the development and construction of the groups in the star system, but they do not want to carry out destructive mining.
"What are you hesitating about? Do you know how much your hesitation has slowed down the progress of the race? ”
Eventually, a urging radio was sent to the Gatherers on the terrestrial planet, asking them to understand the reason for the slowdown.
"It's a complicated situation, we don't know how to explain it, and we've found something on the surface of this terrestrial planet."
The gatherer on the other end of the urging was ambiguously replying that he had found something.
This is the first time it has encountered such a situation, and it can't help but be curious, what is the discovery that makes its people have such a reaction?
"What did you find?"
"A complete ecosystem is a huge ecosystem that is completely naturally formed, and we believe that the value of this to the community is not limited to the material level, so we are hesitating."
"Okay, then I'll go see you for myself." Initial answer.
