Chapter 271: Explore the Mysterious Zone

The scientists were surprised by Huang Ke's choice, even if they were divided into two factions, everyone had a tacit understanding to avoid the deepest mysterious area.

On the neutrino radar map, this mysterious place is completely pitch black, and nothing can be seen.

This means that when the neutrino passes through this place, it is disturbed by certain conditions, so that the instrument cannot observe the state of the neutrino.

In other mysterious places, scientists can deduce the general direction of this anomaly.

Only in the mysterious area in the deepest part of the Mariana Trench, they have no understanding of what caused this to happen.

What's more, he's buried deep and it's not too easy to explore this place at all.

The Mariana Trench is located at a depth of 11,000 meters, three kilometers below the seabed.

This is equivalent to a deep-sea submarine having to withstand 1,100 times the atmospheric pressure and dig three kilometers of passage on the seabed.

Even digging three kilometers down on land is a huge undertaking.

That's digging three kilometers down, instead of laying three kilometers of road, and it's not at all an order of magnitude difficult.

The excavation was indeed at a depth of 11,000 meters, and the deep-sea submarine was digging a channel on the seabed, which would definitely cause seawater inflow.

For every 10 meters of seawater, it generates an atmospheric pressure, which was 1,100 times the atmospheric pressure, but now it is directly strengthened to 1,400 times.

With 300 times more atmospheric pressure, there is no need for a deep-sea submarine to move in it, and only with the extra 300 times the atmospheric pressure, the deep-sea submarine can be crushed to pieces.

Some scientists objected: "This mysterious area is too difficult to explore, and the design limit of the deep-sea submarine is only 12,000 meters."

Counting the sea bottom and the passages that need to be excavated, it is more than 14,000 meters and cannot be dived by deep-sea submarines. ”

Huang Ke said confidently: "We can't be overwhelmed by difficulties, we are a water research city, not a metal mining city."

Explore this mysterious area and collect information about the deep seabed along the way.

By exploring the unknown, we can achieve more.

We are scientists, not a bunch of miners. ”

Huang Ke saw the disdainful and helpless eyes of the scientists, and he knew that he could only convince them to really explore the mysterious area of the Mariana Trench.

"I also considered the issue of the increase in pressure on the seabed after digging into the seabed, and found that we were still successful.

I solved this problem by two aspects, the first is to strengthen the deep-sea submarine at any cost, thicken the shell of the deep-sea submarine, and forge the shell with a one-piece method, instead of the previous splicing scheme.

Because the material has not changed, it does not enhance the depth of the bathystrophore, but it can enhance the time that the bathystrophic submarine stays in the Mariana Trench.

The second method is even more critical, we can excavate a 500-meter-deep channel in advance.

From the materials used to build the bathyscapys, a large metal channel is made.

The passage is equipped with a multi-section gate, which allows the deep-sea submarine to pass through step by step and prevent seawater from entering the passage.

After the metal channel is made, it is placed in the excavated submarine channel to prevent the sea water from seeping.

Hydrogel material is sprinkled around the metal channel, allowing the hydrogel to directly cover the excavation site, and the hydrogel can stop the flow of surrounding seawater, which can also slow down the rate of seawater infiltration.

We just want to explore this location, it will only take a short time, and it will not be a permanent passage.

Through these measures, we can achieve our goals. ”

After Huang Ke finished talking about his opinion, the scientists thought carefully and also believed that this opinion had a certain degree of feasibility.

"Since Director Huang Ke wants to explore the mysterious area of the Mariana Trench, let's try it first, and if it is not feasible, let the deep-sea submarine collect other resources."

The management of the Aquatic Research City reached an agreement, and the factory began to process specially made deep-sea submarines.

This deep-sea submarine manipulator has been improved to better match the conditions on the seabed of the Mariana Trench.

One of the bathyscapheses also has a device like a shield machine cutterhead at the front of the nose for digging channels under the seabed.

The deep-sea submarine is more than 50 meters long, and he can dig a 40-meter-long channel on his own, exit the channel, spit out dirt and gravel, and then dig into the channel.

The plant soon completed the task of producing deep-sea submarines according to special requirements.

Five deep-sea submarines towed a 500-metre-long metal pipeline to the bottom of the Mariana Trench.

As they descended to the bottom of the ocean, they also turned on the sensors they carried to collect hydrological conditions near the Mariana Trench.

During the deep-sea submarine diving, I also saw many small fish swimming in the shallow water, and photographed great white sharks, blue whales and other fish.

The deep-sea submarine gradually dived into the deep sea, and it was pitch black without a single ray of sunlight.

The lights on the deep-sea submarine attract a lot of marine life.

The deep-sea submarine photographed many precious marine creatures, all kinds of strange creatures.

There are sea creatures that are completely transparent like jellyfish, and there are sea creatures that are constantly flashing like marquees.

The deep-sea submarine continues to dive, and the pressure of the sea in the deep sea is already very large, and there is gradually no sign of life activity here.

The life detector of a deep-sea submarine can only detect a very weak signal of life, which should be the population of certain bacteria.

There are also a lot of undercurrents on the bottom of the sea, especially when deep-sea submarines also tow metal pipes.

They are swayed from side to side by undercurrents under the sea, quickly deviating from their intended position, and need to be constantly adjusted.

The dive was very fast, and in just 35 hours, the deep-sea submarine sank to the bottom of the sea, which is completely off-limits to life.

No life can withstand 1,100 times the atmospheric pressure, and only processed special alloys can withstand such a huge pressure.

The deep-sea submarines worked together to place the metal pipes, and under the guidance of the positioning and guidance of the water research city, they selected a good direction and began to dig to the target location.

A bathyscapher excavates and other bathyscaphesives scatter hydrogel material in all directions.

Even on the seabed, as long as the state of the water molecules does not change, they still mix with this special material to form a hydrogelling colloid.

Soon a hydrogel was formed, covering everything, including the bathyscapy.

The deep-sea submarine is constantly moving in and out, spitting the rubble directly into the hydrogel.

The deep-sea submarine dug a 500-meter passage, and five bathyscaphesives worked together to put one end of the metal channel into the submarine channel.

The bathyscaphe moved slowly in hydrocondensate colloids, and it stopped 100 meters from the upper end of the metal pipe.

Soon after, the bathyscaphe spewed deep blue flames backwards, like a sharp sword, and slammed directly into the metal pipe.

This is the liquid hydrogen liquid oxygen engine start, it and the rocket engine is the same principle.

A loud noise spread across the seabed, and metal pipes were smashed directly into the channel.

Even hydrogelling colloids begin to flow slowly under the enormous pressure of the seabed, seeping directly into the gaps between the metal pipes and the submarine passages.

However, the fluidity of hydrocondensate colloids is very weak, and the other end of the metal pipe is basically in a vacuum state, and the deep-sea submarine excavates the submarine channel and will not be affected by the strong pressure on the seabed.

The bathyscaphe continues to dig towards the heart of the mysterious zone.
