Chapter 3 Fellows
Pandora
Grace Augustine has been living here for almost five or six years.
She didn't go to Pandora's research base in Huaxia because she was now the director of the scientific distribution of the RDA base. Again, she's a watchdog here. Once she had adopted some kind of overstepping the boundary, she could directly contact Earth or the Huaxia Research Base on the other side of the planet, which was also the headquarters of scientific research on the planet.
She still remembers the surprise of seeing her Avatar in Kyoto, China, when she was only 18 years old, but she had already published many influential articles on biology and environmental science.
It is precisely because of the distance between Pandora and the earth that the first batch of explorers were basically young people.
In the blink of an eye, these young people have been on this strange planet for more than five years.
"Grace, the Startup Star has returned to Earth, and when it returns to this planet again, we will be able to get more superconducting ores! How's your project going? Are those blue-skinned guys already able to speak English? Or is the Na'vi you're learning finally coming in handy? Did your Avatar get in touch with the natives? ”
It was Parker Severidge, an ambitious man who would not have been the son of one of the RDA's board members, who would not have come to this place more than four light-years from his hometown.
At this length, even the diameter of the planet can be ignored.
Now they're in a meeting, a regular meeting once a month.
Ever since the Startup Star dropped them off and went to Earth, such meetings have been held every month to report on Pandora. At the same time, other bases on the planet Pandora will also use virtual technology to report at their annual meetings held at one of the bases every six months.
"Parker, my team is working on this, and besides, the gunfire of your guys scares them. If it weren't for your guys, we might have started chatting by now! ”
After all, there are still not many people on the planet Pandora, and there are very few things that can be done. The base is also basically on the defensive, and only the Avatar will think about leaving the base. Of course, the relationship between Grace and Parker is not bad now, after all, they are fellow countrymen, and they must be closer psychologically when they come so far. In addition, they are colleagues, and they still call each other by their names.
"Grace, you can't blame me for that. Our base is still dangerous, and there were so many Na'vi people back then. Our warriors must keep you unharmed. ”
Parker said, releasing a horrific photo of the Na'vi baring their teeth and claws.
"Okay, Parker, but next time, without my permission, can you stop shooting?" Grace is simple-minded after all.
"Of course, no problem, but, Grace, we want to keep you safe, I can only promise not to shoot first, and once they want to shoot, Miles will definitely not be relentless."
Colonel Miles Quachy is the supreme military commander at Hellgate's base. He has a hideous scar on his head, which he was scratched by the wild animals here when he first came here, and it is for this reason that he has never been afraid of the worst malice towards this planet.
He nodded, agreeing with Parker, the head of the Hellgate base.
Grace is not a bad person, she knows that it is indeed these people who are protecting the Avatar Project and scientific researchers, so she did not continue to fight, but continued to listen quietly to the conversation.
……
On Earth, to be exact, in the outer space, the Entrepreneurial Star is constantly undergoing overhauls and upgrades.
And on the surface of the earth, at the entrance of the laboratory of the Kyoto Zoo, Li Yi officially became a researcher in a white coat.
He has little interest in Pandora now, he has seen too many strange planets, and a Pandora cannot interest him at all.
He wanted to feel the rhythm of the earth now.
Then he came to this lab, and the sign said Bengal Tiger Laboratory.
The main content is the study of the restoration of Bengal tigers, which unfortunately did not survive the technological explosion of the 21st century, and the last wild Bengal tiger was found in southwest China and rushed to the Kyoto Zoo, where he died a few years later, and the Bengal tiger was declared extinct.
But luckily, the zoo has genes for thousands of species, including the Bengal tiger.
In view of the current interest in the tiger species, the laboratory was established, and in fact the laboratory has always been a specialist in the study of species restoration, although they often change the name of the species they study.
So now here is the Bengal Tiger Lab. The laboratory is located on the edge of a large experimental area, which focuses on the restoration of species. So there are a lot of animals here that you can't see from the outside world. Some of them have even been declared extinct.
And the large-scale experimental site of Avatar is not far from here. Avatar is not a high-density project, so there are many times when young people who have been trained in the Avatar program come to the area to see the restored critters.
They were all young people who had basically only heard of these animals in books or in the oral accounts of their elders. So I was very interested in this experimental site that was very close to them.
Of course, this side is also very interested in the experimental site of Avatar, and the two sides hit it off and began to communicate with each other.
"Dr. Li Yi, are these Bengal tigers?"
These are the drivers of Avatar who came to visit today, and they are all young people who are outstanding in certain fields. However, there are specializations in the art industry, so there are some problems with biology that are still not very clear. I only know some high school knowledge about gene replication, translation, and transcription, but I don't have an intuitive understanding of cutting-edge technology.
"To be exact, they're not yet, and they still need to be concocted, but the genes preserved at the Kyoto Zoo are relatively intact, and in about a year or two, you should be able to do it before you leave."
A few days later,
Li Yi came to the experimental area of the Avatar Project.
Looking at the continuous cross-replacement of the Na'vi and human genes displayed on the machine, Li Yi knew that the Avatar was estimated to be produced within a year, and when the time came, it was time to test the pass rate and carry out the final debugging.
Then, these young people will be on the entrepreneurial star, ready to set off for four light-years away that they may have spent more than a decade or even decades on.
