The project is divided into three phases.

The first phase of the project is the foundation part, and the ground in the enclosed area will be isolated with welded stainless steel. The second phase of the project will mainly carry out the construction of the scaffold, and will use tensile and compressive steel to support a six-grid steel skeleton for the entire hemispherical artificial biosphere. In the third phase, the scaffolds were fitted with double layers of special glass and the outer layers were coated with special paint to match the cooling towers to balance the temperature in the biosphere.

In the future, it will also open up biosphere B, C, D and other series for the Martian environment and other special outer space environments, and develop life support devices that can be used by colonists to live in specific planetary environments.

Since the slightest disturbance could lead to unpredictable consequences for experiments, the biosphere had to be built in a forbidden area away from the life of living creatures, with as much outside interference as possible.

Fortunately, China has a lot of land and resources, and it is easy to find a place like this.

There is no better place to address this artificial biosphere than the desert in the middle of the basin.

After three days of exploring the nearby geological environment, and with the advice of Professor Hu and another geologist, Lu Zhou finally made the decision to choose the site of the Tinder Project Biosphere A near a sparsely vegetated sand dune near a road.

The total investment of the whole project is as high as 1.5 billion RMB, of which 1.3 billion is supported by 41 national longitudinal project funds, and the remaining 200 million is provided by Star Technology. This is a small part of the overall lunar landing project, but its significance is extremely significant.

After dealing with the specific work items of the "Tinder" plan, Lu Zhou, who still had things to deal with when he returned to Jinling, did not stay in the desert for too long, and left the camp the next day in the jeep that came, and returned to Wushi and then took the train back to Jinling.

Coincidentally, almost as soon as he got off the train from Jinling, Lu Zhou received an email from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Academy of Engineering, and Jinda, and learned that his name appeared on the primary list of the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering respectively.

Looking at these three emails, Lu Zhou was also a little crying and laughing for a while.

In his original idea, an academician of the Academy of Sciences was stable, after all, he had always positioned himself as a mathematician, but he didn't expect that the old professors of the Academy of Engineering would also recommend his name.

According to the process of academician selection, after the list is recommended, only the standing committee of each department organizes academicians to review and elect candidates.

The evaluation must adhere to the standards, follow the principles of fairness and objectivity, and conduct a comprehensive and scientific evaluation of the candidates.

There are no major violations of laws and disciplines, academic misconduct, and style problems, and basically there will be no problems in the evaluation process. After the evaluation, the candidates will be voted by secret ballot, and if they receive not less than two-thirds of the votes cast, they will be elected according to the number of votes they have received in accordance with the number of seats to be elected by the Division.

The results of the election are checked and confirmed by the standing committees of each school, which is called a review. After being deliberated and approved by the permanent leading body of the Academician Conference, it shall be notified to all academicians in writing.

Jin Da has not been an academician for many years, and several treasures of the Academy of Physics are already seventy or eighty years old. This time, Lu Zhou's name entered the primary election for the co-optation of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which is undoubtedly a thing worth celebrating for Jin Dae.

However, although it is indeed worth celebrating, Lu Zhou himself did not pay too much attention to the selection of academicians, but just smiled and sent an email to Wang Zengguang of the Nuclear Industry Group, Li Jiangang of the Luyang Institute of Physics, Xiang Huanan of the Institute of Mathematics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and other old academicians to express their gratitude.

There is no need to guess, these must be the few people who recommended themselves to the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Although I don't really care about the results, the recommender still has to thank him, which is both polite and humane.

After doing these things, Lu Zhou turned his attention to the space shuttle.

Although the launch of Xiangrui was a success, there are still many things that need to be improved.

The next launch mission is planned before the Spring Festival, and the time left for him is very tight, and there is no extra time to waste.

However, although Lu Zhou put the matter of academician co-optation in general very freely, many people were very entangled for a while because of his name.

Just when Lu Zhou returned to Jinling and held a meeting with the designers of the Xiangrui, Academician Wang Shicheng, director of the Department of Mathematical Physics who was responsible for the recent election of academicians, came to the door in the office of the Work Bureau of the Academic Division of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Stopping the pen in his hand, Director Qian of the Faculty Work Bureau, who was sitting behind the desk, asked the secretary to pour a cup of tea for Academician Wang, and said with a smile.

"Why did you suddenly come to me today?"

Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, Wang Shicheng sighed and said.

"What else could it be for?"

"Let me guess," Director Qian smiled and asked, "Is it for Lu Zhou?" ”

Wang Shicheng didn't answer, put the teacup on the table, and said simply.

"It's not easy to handle."

Every time I go to the year of the co-optation of academicians, the most troublesome thing is the standing committees of each department.

The domestic academic community is relatively closed and has its own system. For most locally trained scholars, it is quite difficult to obtain a high rank in the international rank, and the title of academician can be said to be the ultimate goal of more than 99% of scholars in the domestic academic community.

As long as you get the title of academician, it means that you will gain both power and status, and you can basically go sideways no matter which university or research institution you are in.

Therefore, at this time, for the sake of the only few places, the departments and departments almost have to break their heads.

Don't talk about turning against each other, it's even more common to tear up and expose shortcomings.

But......

The situation on Lu Zhou's side is a little different from the others.

Probably because they knew that they couldn't tear it up, or because there was no short time to reveal, all the candidates tacitly put this guy aside and didn't care. It stands to reason that this is a good thing, and in the end, it will go through the motions, everyone will vote, and the title will be awarded to him, and there will be no controversy anyway.

However, the trouble is that this big guy is too awesome, and his name has entered the primary list of the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering at the same time.

Needless to say, the chief designer of the controllable fusion project, the selection of the Faculty of Energy and Mining Engineering is basically a sure thing, and it is not surprising that you can enter the department in two or three years. Xi Tuan, to say the least, is also a department director or secretary general of the committee.

If there is an accident, not to mention that half of the nuclear power people in China will not agree, I am afraid that the Elders' House will not be able to pass that level.

Then the question arises, on the premise that the Academy of Engineering will definitely give him the title of academician, is it still necessary for the Academy of Sciences to give it?

It is not uncommon for scholars to serve as academicians of both academies at the same time, but two titles of academicians are awarded in the same year......

This is also an exaggeration.

Many professors with very old qualifications are still in line, and there are many people who have made major research achievements, and it is difficult not to think about it when it comes to winning the titles of two academicians at once.

Looking at Director Qian sitting behind the desk, Wang Shicheng paused for a moment before continuing to speak: "I heard that someone from the Engineering Academy also recommended his name, and I wondered if I should press his application first and stagger it with the Engineering Academy. ”

"Oh," Director Qian smiled and asked, "Then you can help me think about it, which of your young talents in Yan University is more suitable than Professor Lu?" ”

Wang Shicheng stopped talking.

This is the second headache for him.

Postponing him for one term is a good choice......

But the light of the Nobel Prize and the Fields Medal is too dazzling, and coupled with the weight of the Lingyun Medal, it is not appropriate to brush him down. After all, let alone domestic, even if you look at the entire international community, you can't find a scholar whose light is more dazzling than him.

"I wondered if it was the right choice, so I came to talk to you. If you think it's more appropriate, then do it. Unable to think of a solution, Wang Shicheng decisively kicked the ball to Director Qian.

Director Qian shook his head: "I think you think this question is too complicated. ”

Wang Shicheng: "Complicated? ”

"That's right," Director Qian nodded, and continued, "The title of academician is not important to him at all, his opinions can already influence high-level decision-making, and the support he can get from the national level is not something that ordinary academicians can earn." Even if there is one more title of academician, it will be the icing on the cake for him at best. ”

The cloudy pupils flickered slightly, and Wang Shicheng pretended to ask casually, "What do you mean...... It doesn't hurt to push it back. ”

Director Qian: "No, I mean...... It doesn't matter to him whether he is elected or not, but it is important to us. ”

Wang Shicheng: "......"
