In the blink of an eye, it has been a year and a half since the "Earth Era" arrived in this planetary system.

Every day, a large amount of data and reports are aggregated to a central control center. Whenever he sees these data, Zhang Yuan always has a strong sense of accomplishment in his heart.

The underground city is getting bigger and bigger, and the usable area has exceeded 5 million square meters, and various functional blocks have also been dug up, and after a while, more people will be able to live. Various ventilation systems and material circulation systems are being installed in an orderly manner.

Just a few days ago, the first dairy goats hatched by artificial womb technology were born in this world. This dairy goat is able to reach lactation within 7-9 months and produce a certain amount of goat's milk.

Goat's milk can not only be used as a staple food for newborn babies, but also improve the quality of people's food.

Therefore, the first batch of about 100 artificially incubated babies was officially launched today, and it is expected that these fertilized eggs will complete hatching in 10 months and become real human babies.

More childbirth-related equipment is still being produced overtime......

Of course, this batch of babies has not been modified using genetic technology, and uses sperm and eggs brought from distant Earth, which does not challenge too many ethics.

The change in thinking is gradual, and for now, it's good enough to be able to get people to accept the hatching of an artificial womb, and it can't change more for the time being. There are still some conservatives who have launched a public opinion offensive on the Internet, but in the face of real facts, they can't make too big waves.

"Artificial womb, it's really a good technology!" Zhang Yuan sighed very excitedly, while thinking in his heart about how to make better use of this technology.

Not only cows, sheep, and human babies, but also means that humans can hatch more and more species, improve the ecological environment of the living area, and by the way, improve the food ......

"By the way, improving food can greatly improve the satisfaction of the people, and the cost is not very large."

"Pigs first, or chickens and ducks first? In the current environment...... It's best to be able to lay eggs," Zhang Yuanzheng thought secretly.

At present, the most pure and natural food is mealworms, which save time and effort to raise, and will not cause too much biological pollution. After deep-frying, it tastes quite good just like chicken! But the light bugs still can't meet the needs of the people.

Thinking so, Zhang Yuan sent a feeding suggestion to the Ministry of Agriculture. Anyway, it's just a suggestion, and whether to adopt it or not is a matter for their Ministry of Agriculture.

Next report, a study on extraterrestrial technology......

At present, people have two "Gaia civilization" technologies in their hands, the first is high-dimensional fragments, and the second is consciousness upload instruments.

The research on these two things is progressing very slowly, because the technological generation gap between humans and Gaia civilization is really a bit large.

For example, the instrument that uploaded consciousness, so far, humans have only known that it is most likely a biological computer. Yes, a biological computer, but it is not known what its energy system is, and it is certainly not chemical energy anyway, nor is it nuclear energy.

Its energy system is a small round metal ball, but it will emit heat steadily, like a perpetual motion machine, and after so many years, there is no sign of weakening at all.

Some people speculate that it is vacuum zero-point energy, while others say that it is an energy substance in a high-dimensional space...... It's just all sorts of whimsical ideas.

Because the stakes are so high, scientists don't dare to disassemble this machine indiscriminately, so they can only crack and study it slowly.

As for the high-dimensional fragment, there is no clue, people only know how it is activated, which can be opened briefly, but they do not know how it is formed.

Anyway, the whole society is in ruins, and all the scientists are busy. With a busy day, many people can't remember it at all. Only a few experts are still bothering to study it, so as long as they don't mess around, they can go anyway......

Next report, on the satellite exploration of Gliese-581.

When he saw this report, Zhang Yuan's brows furrowed slightly.

Through the remote sensing system of satellites, people have found some very strange underground caves, which may be caused by the erosion of water currents, or it may be caused by other causes, such as glacial movements, typhoons, etc. A large number of creatures operate in underground caves, and more than a thousand different animal species have been discovered so far.

Of course, satellites are just satellites, and no matter how good they are, there is no way to penetrate the thick layers of rock and soil and discover what is hidden underneath, and there may be many underground caves of this kind......

What worries Zhang Yuan is that the satellite seems to have found some specious traces of industrial mining!

Such traces are plausible, for example, some areas of open-pit iron ore appear to have been mined, and some areas resemble the foundations of a house, but they may have been inadvertently formed in their natural state.

After all, the wind is so strong in this place, it is not impossible to blow the stones away......

Biologist and biomimilogist Ichiro Yamamoto wrote in the report: "Because the surface of this planet is often covered with typhoons and clouds, the effect of satellite detection is not very good. ”

"Compared with the organisms on Earth, we find that the life on the planet is generally smaller, and the longest animal is no more than 1.5 meters long and no more than 30 kilograms in mass. Probably because of the low oxygen content, anaerobic respiration ......"

"According to our current theory, anaerobic respiration provides so little energy that it cannot even support the survival of complex life. The mass of 30 kilograms has far exceeded our expectations, and there must be more complex biological mechanisms in it...... Understanding its biological mechanisms will replenish the missing parts of the protein's language. ”

When he saw this series of information, Zhang Yuan knew that Yamamoto, this guy, wanted to go to another planet for a field trip again.

But it is clear that this is not possible.

First, human beings are temporarily unable to resist this kind of typhoon weather; Second, there is no need to waste manpower doing this at the moment. The planet is here, and it is impossible to run away, so it will be more appropriate to wait for ten or twenty years for human development to become stronger and then conduct scientific expeditions.

"Human civilization is very poor, really poor......"

Immediately, Zhang Yuan made a phone call and told Yamamoto not to always think about this kind of unrealistic question, and not to always bewitch young scholars, although scientific research is very important, but you can't pay the price of your own life, right?

"Yes...... I see! ”

Yamamoto's reply is simply scary, and if it was a face-to-face conversation, he might have made a nodding motion. Some cultures in the Earth Age are still influencing his thoughts, but Zhang Yuan misses the young man who worried about inspiration together in the Star Library......

At this time, I suddenly received another urgent call, and I looked at it, it was Captain Zhao calling.

"Lao Zhang, where are you?" The voice was serious, with a faint sense of urgency.

Zhang Yuan replied, "I'm in the office...... There are still some issues to be dealt with. ”

Zhao Qingfeng said urgently: "Don't worry about it for now, hurry up and come to the captain's room!" ”

"Quick!"
