Chapter 100, Survival of the Fittest
Shan Ci sat in the "county-level" space vehicle he purchased from Qingquan Technology, looking at Mars from a distance, once the red and yellow planet has now become a blue world, looking as beautiful as the earth!
This time, Shan Ci's team found another asteroid containing a large amount of oxygen from the asteroid belt, and the mass was also quite large, so naturally they made a trip and used the only "county-level" space vehicle to pull the asteroid to Mars. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Speaking of his own "county-level" space vehicle, Shan Ci loves and hates, love because this is indeed a very awesome spacecraft, the length alone is thousands of meters, and more importantly, it can drag 1 billion tons of asteroids at a time, this is Shan Ci's favorite place to live by mining asteroids, the strength is leveraged, there is nothing to say!
But at this price, even the bullish Shan Ci in the interstellar mining field is gritting his teeth and is only willing to buy one, and the price of 20 billion Han Yuan makes countless interstellar mining teams drool and shake their heads at the same time, it is too expensive!
Soon, Shan Ci came to the vicinity of Mars, at this time Mars space has become the busiest construction site today, the huge "Mars", "Zheng He" and countless large and small spacecraft are all gathered in Mars space, countless small spacecraft are constantly going back and forth between various large spacecraft.
In the space of Mars, a solar power station many times larger than the solar panels on the other side of the earth has begun to take shape, and countless mechs are working it like industrious ants.
Today's Qingquan science and technology strength is not known how many times stronger than back then, and the construction of solar power stations is naturally countless times faster, as long as the materials are enough, it will be built soon!
At the same time, next to this huge solar power station, a space factory many times larger than the second phase of the earth factory is also in full swing construction, this space factory is more huge than Shan Ci imagined, just the skeleton seen is hundreds of kilometers enough.
"It seems that Qingquan Technology really plans to move to Mars in the future, and I don't know if they will accept immigration, otherwise, no matter how much it costs, I will get a place for my family!" Looking at everything in front of him, Shan Ci suddenly understood the strategy for the future development of Qingquan Technology!
……
"Zhipeng, the solar reflector needed for the heating work is under construction day and night, and I believe it will be put into use soon, but I think our ventilation work can also be started now, isn't it time for the people of our biological research institute to behave?"
Chen Shuiwa of the Biological Research Center took Qin Jiang to find Jiang Zhipeng, the person in charge of the Mars transformation, with a worried face, this Mars transformation to the present, watching Mars develop towards a human habitable planet day by day, but the Biological Research Institute has no chance to perform at all, and all the credit is given to the Astronomical Research Institute, the Physics Research Institute, etc.
As the person in charge of the Institute of Biology, Chen Shuiwa naturally comforted the emotions of the scientists under her hands, and hurriedly came over to Jiang Zhipeng to inquire about the situation.
"Look at your hurried appearance, sooner or later, this Mars transformation will also use your biological research institute, how is your cyanobacteria cultivation? Is it enough? And how is the research on this new type of green plant suitable for the Martian environment? Is the number of seeds enough? ”
Jiang Zhipeng looked at Chen Shuiwa's hurried appearance, shook his head, and a series of questions came down.
"Don't you have the confidence to look for you? Don't look at who I am in the Institute of Biology, we have already prepared everything, just waiting for your notification! ”
After years of tempering, Chen Shuiwa is no longer the honest and honest Loess Plateau baby she was at the beginning, and she is not afraid in the face of Jiang Zhipeng's series of problems!
"There aren't enough asteroids released now, if these cyanobacteria are released on Mars now, will there be any impact when the asteroids are released later? And now the temperature on Mars is not high enough, and the temperature difference between day and night is also very large, which should have a fatal effect on your biological seeds, right? ”
Jiang Zhipeng thought about it and said his doubts, the meaning is obvious, now is not the time, the conditions are not ripe, you better wait first!
"Don't worry, I've been studying biology for many years, and I still have this common sense, and the biological seeds put on land will indeed have a great impact, but cyanobacteria and microorganisms are one of the most tenacious species of life on Earth, and now Mars is like heaven for them, which is very conducive to their reproduction and growth!"
"As for the land, our biological research institute has several newly researched biological seeds, which should be put on Mars first to try, even if it is unsuccessful, it doesn't matter, just treat it as an experiment, and it can also provide data for later research!"
Chen Shuiwa naturally patted her chest and assured that there was no problem, now Mars already has a good environment, and many creatures on the earth can already survive on Mars!
"In that case, you guys should give it a try!"
……
Hundreds of space shuttles flew to Mars, and the space shuttles were marked with the logo and words of the Institute of Biology, and at a glance they knew that they belonged to the department of Qingquan Technology.
These space shuttles flew headlong into Mars, and soon came to the ocean of Mars, and then at an altitude of 100 meters from the Martian ocean, they flew continuously, and dropped a small thing at a certain distance.
The small thing dropped is a vessel with cyanobacteria and various microorganisms, which also has a large number of nutrients, which are the preliminary nutrients for these cyanobacteria and microorganisms, and after falling into the ocean of Mars from above, the vessel is directly broken, and all microorganisms are directly exposed to the environment of Mars.
How many of these microorganisms will be killed directly because they can't adapt to the Martian environment, and how many microorganisms will be produced because they can adapt to the Martian environment, it is unknown for the time being, and it will take a certain amount of time for them to adapt, survive, and reproduce!
There are also many small space shuttles flying at low altitude over the land of the southern hemisphere of Mars, but they fly at very high altitude and at a very slow speed, and the planes are also constantly being dropped east-west to the ground.
The organisms put into the land are different from those put into the ocean, and the environment of the ocean is completely incomparable with the environment on the ground, after all, the temperature of the ocean is relatively stable, and there is water needed for life, but the temperature difference on land is huge, and the current Martian land water loss is very fast, and there is a shortage of water!
However, in the evolutionary history of hundreds of millions of organisms on the earth, many land plants with strong vitality have evolved, and this time the scientists of the Institute of Biology selected the oldest and most tenacious plant in the plant world - lichen!
In the plant world, lichens are the most tenacious!
According to experiments, lichens can grow at a low temperature of minus 273 degrees Celsius, remain viable for 6 years under vacuum conditions, and survive at temperatures twice as high as boiling water, so it can grow in deserts, Antarctica, the North Pole, and even on the backs of large sea turtles.
There are more than 500 genera and more than 26,000 species of lichens known in the world. From the poles to the equator, from mountains to plains, from forests to deserts, lichens grow everywhere.
Lichens are a miracle in the evolution of life on Earth!
Lichens not only have tenacious vitality, rich and powerful family members, but also have a very wide range of roles, improving the soil environment, photosynthesis to release oxygen, animal food, human edible lichens also have a long history......
That's why the scientists at the Institute of Biology chose lichens, because they are the plants that are most likely to adapt to the harsh climate of Mars, and at the same time have a very important role in later modifications.
A large number of space shuttles continue to sow the seeds of life on Mars, these seeds of life will face a new severe test of life evolution, adaptors will shine on Mars, losers will become nutrients for others, all of which are survival of the fittest!
After the scientists of the Institute of Biology put the seeds of life, they go to Mars every week to collect the latest sample data and study the survival of these seeds on Mars!
"Mars" Biological Research Center! At this point, more than a month has passed since the seeds were planted!
"From the analysis of the samples we collected, the samples of Martian microorganisms this week, both in number, variety and their range, have exploded, and there are also several microorganisms that have not been found on our earth!"
Qin Jiang analyzed the latest samples of this week to the scientists present, and the current microbial situation on Mars was depicted in the form of data patterns on the big screen.
"As we all know, in the first few weeks, we put in microorganisms and cyanobacteria that we could hardly find in many cases, but this week's samples have not only shown an explosive increase in the number of microorganisms, but also cyanobacteria! We can now say with great certainty that these creatures have adapted to the Martian environment and are reproducing like crazy! ”
"What about land lichens?" Everyone smiled happily after hearing Qin Jiang's words, and hurriedly asked about the situation of the lichen on the land.
"Lichens are still in the adaptation stage, and there are no obvious signs of development and growth, but in the area of Mars near the South Pole, the temperature here is relatively cold, the water vapor is relatively more stable and abundant, and the lichen here grows very well!"
Lichens are very adaptable to cold climates, as evidenced by the wide range of lichens in the North and South poles of the earth, and lichens in the Arctic region are the main food for elk and other animals!
"Great!" The scientists of the Institute of Biology couldn't help but feel excited!
