Chapter 519: Space Defense System

Of course, in Luo Yuan's eyes, what is more important is that this new warship can accommodate more people, more than you can imagine.

Not to mention five million, based on the population density of today's mother ship, even a billion people are not a problem, high-rise buildings have always been a weapon to accommodate the population, even if it is just the size of a town, it can pile up a miracle close to the total population of China before the end of the world.

However, with the growth rate of human numbers, it is estimated that it will take hundreds of years to fill this spaceship.

Over the years, the secret experimental factory of the mothership has not shut down human cloning, but has only slightly reduced the number of production, and in ten years, the number of human beings has increased by about two million, and the total human population has reached eight million.

It's not that more clones can't be done, it's not to avoid exposure, it's that there is a serious shortage of baby care and teachers.

There are no dormant people, the number is very small, the total number is less than 500,000, most of them are still scientific researchers, and there are only more than 30,000 special nurses, clones are not products after all, nor are they those powerful clones of Luo Yuan, and they don't need to care anymore after they are separated from the nutrient solution.

Newborn cloned babies are quite fragile, not much different from ordinary people, at most only slightly stronger, and have to be taken care of by someone for both feeding and urinating.

It wasn't until they were half a year old that they began to show unusual behavior, walking independently, learning to speak, and by this time, they basically didn't need to be taken care of.

These clone children can't be seen in the virtual world, they all stay in the mothership welfare home to study and live, and do not live in the virtual world, their cognitive and discriminating ability is far from mature, and after staying in the virtual world for a long time, it is easy to confuse the difference between reality and virtuality.

In fact, not to mention children, many adults, have this trend, every time they leave the virtual world, there will be a feeling of being in a different world, for them, reality is just a place to meet physiological needs, most of the time to stay in the virtual world, where to live, where to work, and where to play.

What is Reality? What is false again? This definition, now that the virtual world is becoming more and more real, has begun to blur.

This is an inevitable phenomenon of staying in the virtual world for a long time, and it is also an unavoidable sequelae, but Luo Yuan doesn't want to correct it, those scientific researchers, the greatest value is to dedicate wisdom, as for where to work, as long as it does not affect it, you can do anything.

……

No matter how powerful and advanced this new warship is, it has no effect on today's human beings, and human beings can only stay in this old Boxing mother ship, and they can only carry out technical verification in the virtual world.

There is no village in front of it, there is no store in the back, the black region is empty, there is no resources, even if Lady Luck takes care of the chance to discover an asteroid, she will not be able to build a giant spaceship of 10 billion tons.

This is a behemoth that needs to be built with a planet as a mining area, and it is not at all that one or two asteroids can be satisfied, and the construction work can only be really carried out by flying to the Barnard star system.

It will take more than ten years to fly.

However, more than ten years later, with the progress of human science and technology, this kind of spaceship is estimated to be unacceptable, this is a spaceship destined to stay in the drawings, and it can only be seen in the virtual world in the future.

…………

After visiting the spaceship, the group took the aircraft and rushed to the next location, where space has become a testing ground for human military strength, in addition to spaceships and factories, there are also many strange space defense weapons floating.

"This is one of the components of the armed satellite global defense system designed by the Tiandun Weapons Research Institute, which weighs 300 million tons, has ten sets of giant nuclear fusion furnaces, has a gamma-ray cannon and twelve rapid-fire electromagnetic cannon defense arrays, intelligently captures targets, and if it is a complete set, it will have 18,000 pieces, covering the entire planet."

The Tiandun Weapon Design Institute is one of the largest research institutes specializing in the design of space defense weapons, and almost two-thirds of the space defense weapons here are designed by them.

However, Luo Yuan only heard this number, so he couldn't help frowning: "300 million tons, more than 10,000 grains, is this resource consumed?" ”

"This ......" The dean of the design institute was suddenly full of embarrassment: "This was designed by some young people, and we will correct it immediately." ”

"When designing, you can be bold, but you must also connect theory with practice, reality is not a virtual world, and there are not so many resources to be mined." Luo Yuan reprimanded in a deep voice.

"The mayor said well, this is also what I want to mention, over the years, these mechanical and military design departments have become more and more bold when they carry out mechanical design, pay attention to big is beautiful, more is good, not long ago the mecha more than 300 meters high, it really scared me, what is the use of being so tall and so big? If there is a war, it is not as good as a space fighter, and I think this kind of atmosphere should be braked. Bi Jianping, who was next to him, immediately echoed.

was criticized by the two bigwigs in turn, which made the director of this institute sweat profusely, and he didn't dare to defend himself at all.

"This is not bad, you will never think of the battleship that will be built before, what tonnage is the first design version, 300 billion tons, what do you think these people think?" Tian Jinping smiled, looking like a good man, but in fact, he didn't smile outside, as a senior member in charge of the Ministry of Industry, he had a tough wrist and a strict style, and his subordinates didn't dare to gasp in front of him.

Luo Yuan said with a smile: "Their virtual world authority is a little too high, it seems that it needs to be adjusted, although the unlimited resource supply has accelerated the efficiency of scientific research, but it is also easy to make the development of science and technology go wrong, the Barnard star system is poor in resources, and it is difficult to mine, if it continues like this, our development will be severely limited at that time." ”

This is not speculation but reality, according to the data of the spacecraft, there are only two rocky planets in this star system, while the others are all gaseous planets.

And that star is already a red dwarf, the light emitted is very faint, resulting in the surface of these planets are covered with thick ice, these ice layers are not those shallow ice layers of the earth, it is possible to be thousands of meters thick or even tens of thousands of meters, in addition to the relatively easy access to water resources, mining other resources, it is quite troublesome, and time-consuming and labor-intensive.

What's more, human beings must also consider the possibility that these seemingly rocky planets are actually gaseous or watery, and once it is true, it will undoubtedly be bad news for mankind.

In fact, this is not a low probability thing, the temperature of the galaxy is too low, and ordinary gas planets can freeze if the mass is not large enough to generate heat, because neither methane nor hydrogen can withstand the low temperature close to absolute zero.
