Chapter 402, Genetic Primority
Jupiter, Callisto.
A small spaceship, an unmanned spaceship, is slowly approaching the massive planet, ready to travel to Callisto to collect samples.
According to various detection instruments, Ganymede is composed of 40% ice and 60% rock, and its indication is that it is a crater, which is very ancient, and according to scientific speculation, these craters on the surface of Ganymede may be 4 billion years old, which is very important for the study of the origin and evolution of the solar system.
The unmanned spacecraft landed very slowly on top of Ganymede, and as the hatch opened, engineering vehicles continued to drive out, and then began to knock on Ganymede like a curious baby, collecting samples one by one.
Scientists are getting busier on the Kwafu spacecraft, and samples collected from Jupiter's moons are constantly converging, and scientists need to test and analyze these samples in order to find what they want.
There was also a spaceship on Ganymede that slowly descended, and on this spaceship, Liu Daoming and Li Jing looked a little excited.
As scientists who study biology, this time around the solar system scientific expedition, they have gained a lot, and they have discovered extraterrestrial life on Mars, and people have not yet returned to the earth, so the Nobel Prize committee decided to award the Nobel Prize in biology or medicine to the two again to reward the two for discovering extraterrestrial life on Mars for the first time.
Ganymede, like Ganymede, also contains a lot of water, and the proportion of water on Ganymede is even larger, and it can almost be said to be a Mercury.
Liu Daoming and Li Jingxuan also concluded that there must be life on Calmede, so they couldn't wait to land on Callisto, preparing to collect samples to find life on Callisto.
The spacecraft landed smoothly on the callisto sign, and soon, the hatch slowly opened, and the two men each drove out in a construction vehicle.
"The surface of Ganymede is full of interstellar dust accumulated over a long period of time, and if you scrape it open, you can see the ice."
Liu Daoming drove the engineering truck to work, and the first step was to scrape away the thick layer of dust on the surface of Callisto.
With the movement of the engineering vehicle, a thick layer of dust was scraped away, revealing a thick layer of ice that shimmered coldly.
The ice on Callisto has existed for a very long time, all of which were formed hundreds of millions of years ago, and the so-called thousand-year-old ice and 10,000-year-old cold iron on the earth are simply insignificant compared to the ice here.
"Hmph~"
With the rapid drilling of mechanical drilling, the ice chips are constantly flying.
"The ice was so thick that we didn't even drill through it."
Soon, Li Jingxuan couldn't help but be discouraged, there was too much water on Ganymede, and the ice on the surface was too thick, although the machinery they controlled was very advanced, it was still far from being able to penetrate this ice.
"It seems that there is no choice but to use the guide rail on the Kwafu spaceship, use the guide rail to run out of a hole, and then take a private anti-gravity vehicle to go down."
Liu Daoming soon stopped drilling holes, the ice is too thick, and these ice have been condensed for hundreds of millions of years, and the pressure between each other squeezes each other, these ice are very strong and extremely hard.
Soon the two of them returned to space in the spaceship again, and contacted the 'Kuafu' spaceship, so that the Kuafu spaceship could use the guide rail to blast away the hard ice.
"Rail Run Preparation~"
"3, 2, 1 launch~"
Soon, there was a burst of light on the side of the 'Kuafu' spaceship, and a red projectile shot out from the 'Kuafu' spaceship.
The red projectile was like a red ray, and it was very fast in an instant, and it disappeared from view in the blink of an eye, and it bombarded straight at Ganymede.
The principle of rail running is very simple, according to Einstein's mass-energy formula, the faster the object, the more energy it carries, according to this principle.
Scientists have found a way to accelerate the hard projectile, and when the speed reaches a certain level, the projectile will have unparalleled terrifying power.
The red projectile was like a ray, and soon cooled down because the temperature in the void was too low, and finally disappeared into the dark void.
But it didn't take long for a place on Ganymede, which had been very quiet to run quietly in the void, suddenly seemed to be struck by some invisible powerful force.
"Boom~"
Where Ganymede was attacked by the guide rail surface, the terrifying power carried by the guide rail ran was instantly released, and in an instant, countless ice cubes flew up, and cracks like spider webs appeared on the thick ice formed over hundreds of millions of years, extending in all directions.
In the core area, the thick layer of ice was directly pierced by this terrifying force, revealing a huge hole, which was several kilometers in diameter and bottomless, as if a terrifying dark monster was about to devour everything that entered it.
"Send a small unmanned anti-gravity aircraft over first~"
Liu Daoming saw the huge hole on Ganymede, and he didn't rush down.
Soon, a small, private, anti-gravity vehicle, the size of a car, was rapidly descending towards Ganymede, and continued to move towards the depths of the ice along the hole that had been blasted out of the rails.
"The depth is already more than 50 kilometers, and the hole is getting smaller and smaller, and I don't know if the rail cannon has completely penetrated the ice?"
Through virtual technology, Li Jingxuan remotely controlled this small private anti-gravity aircraft and continued to descend towards the depths of the hole.
The total amount of water contained in Callisto is too much, and its ice is so thick that it is hundreds of kilometers thick, and it is not easy to penetrate such a thick layer of ice.
Soon, the aircraft descended to the deepest depth, and the hole here was already small, and it was difficult for small aircraft to pass through, but fortunately, the rail run really broke through the thick ice.
"Sneer~"
The laser cutter on the small aircraft began to work, cutting through the ice at the entrance of the hole, and constantly expanding the gap so that it could be better detected later.
Soon, a small underwater probe was launched into the water and began to probe even deeper.
"The temperature has risen to about 2 degrees, the specific heat capacity of water is the highest, and where there is water, the temperature difference is relatively small."
"But it's too dark, and the strong light can't see too far in such a dark environment."
Liu Daoming remotely controlled the underwater probe, and at the same time paid close attention to the data transmitted by the probe, on the other hand, a small private anti-gravity vehicle also began to collect ice and water here, and transported the collected samples back to the spacecraft in space.
"Haha, there is indeed life on Ganymede, and amino acids have been found in this surface water."
Li Jingxuan was also not idle, and immediately began to test the collected samples, and soon laughed happily, because just the water taken from the top layer immediately found amino acids, which means that there is life on Ganymede.
Over time, more and more samples were obtained, and significant discoveries were soon made.
"What the hell is this?"
"There are so many microbiota surrounding it, the core of this callisto is completely extinguished, and it stands to reason that there can be an active volcano like Mars."
"Could it be that life on Ganymede is born from this kind of thing?"
Liu Daoming looked at the things under the microscope, this kind of thing that has never been found before, it looks a bit like a protein, but it is not a protein.
Around this unknown substance, a large number of microbiota have survived, and even evolved into a large microbial ecosystem.
"Genetic primitive?"
The news quickly spread back to the earth, and when Qin Yi saw this thing, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, and it was a little hard to believe that this thing would appear on Ganymede.
