In 2050, in the Kuiper Belt of the Milky Way and the Solar System, Shan Ci, who is already a citizen of the Empire, is leading his interstellar mining team to drag an asteroid with a mass of 100 billion tons. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Kuiper Belt is located in the outermost part of the solar system and takes its name from the Dutch-American astronomer Kuiper Kuiper. Back in the 50s, Kuiper predicted that the margins of the solar system beyond Neptune's orbit would be filled with ice-covered objects, which were remnants of the primordial solar nebula and the source of short-period comets.

If there are hundreds of thousands of asteroids between Jupiter and Mars, no one knows exactly how many asteroids there are in the Kuiper Belt, because the Kuiper Belt is very wide and it is also a remnant of the primordial solar nebula in the early solar system.

How massive is the sun, all the matter in the entire solar system is very different from the sun, and the remnants of the solar nebula, even if it is the residue, the number of fragments of these primordial astrolabe can be imagined!

Moreover, the Kuiper Belt is different from the distribution of planets in the solar system, and the planets in the solar system are distributed on a plane, because the solar system is formed as a rotating nebula, and the mass will slowly converge on the rotating plane over time・・・・・

But because of the huge gravitational pull away from the sun, the Kuiper Belt is a spherical belt that surrounds the solar system, and it is a three-dimensional!

So far, scientists have not been able to estimate the number of Kuiper Belt asteroids, and about a million Kuiper Belt objects have been discovered so far, ranging from thousands of meters to thousands of kilometers in diameter.

Many astronomers believe that because Pluto is about the size of an asteroid in the Kuiper Belt, Pluto should be excluded from the Solar System and included in the Kuiper Belt asteroids, while Pluto's moons should be considered its companions.

Even Pluto, which was originally one of the nine planets in the solar system, can only be regarded as an average size in the Kuiper Belt, which shows that the mass of the planet here is also quite large.

Large quantity and high quality, this is the favorite place of interstellar mining teams like Shan Ci who rely on asteroid mining for a living, and the asteroids in the inner solar system between Jupiter and Mars have been mined for decades, and the valuable asteroids have basically been mined.

The rest are some asteroids of little value, these asteroids are really tasteless for a large interstellar mining team like Shan Ci, coupled with the progress of technology, with more advanced spacecraft, Shan Ci and others naturally choose to mine asteroids in the Kuiper Belt.

Today's solar system is full of human figures, from Mercury, the closest to the solar system, to the Kuiper belt, which is dozens of astronomical units away from the sun, there are human shadows in every place, no, to be precise, there are the figures of the descendants of Yan and Huang.

"Brother Peng, are you all okay? I'm ready to go back! Shan Ci said through the communicator to the interstellar mining team of the Peng brothers, who were hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.

Under normal circumstances, when you come to such a distant place in the Kuiper Belt to mine asteroids, you will travel in a group, and you can take care of each other when there is any situation.

"Boss, don't mention it, this trip is in vain!" Peng Zhenxiu's annoyed voice came from the communicator.

"Oh? There are also times when you run for nothing, what's going on? Shan Ci listened to it and smiled slightly, this interstellar mining is sometimes very lucky, good luck is like when you just made a fortune, you can make a lot of money at one time, and if you are unlucky, you may not have any gains.

"I found several big guys here, I thought I could make a small fortune, who thought that these big guys basically just exceeded my limit, you said that you are not angry, now you can only pull a little guy back!"

"Haha, this trip is not fruitful, you can come next time, they can't run again!" Shan Ci understood that the Peng brothers must have discovered several large asteroids, but their mass exceeded the towing capacity of their aircraft.

"Also, forget it, record it first, and then talk about it when you go back, it's been almost a month since this came out, and it's time to go back!"

……

The spacecraft used by Shan Ci and others to mine asteroids in the Kuiper Belt are all the latest products of the Empire, and the power is very strong, and it only takes a month to travel from Mars in the inner circle of the solar system to the Kuiper Belt dozens of astronomical units away.

Shan Ci and the Peng brothers brought their team to fly the asteroid to the interior of the solar system with an asteroid in a huge spacecraft, like a bee dragging its own booty towards the mother nest.

As soon as you pass the Kuiper Belt and reach the inner circle of the solar system, it is as if you have come to the vicinity of the mother nest of bees, and the bees that can be seen everywhere are constantly flying around, and they are extremely busy!

Today's Han science and technology empire after more than ten years of precipitation, all aspects have been developed by leaps and bounds, only the population through the unremitting people-making movement and immigration policy, now the empire has nearly 500 million people, amount, of course, half of them are children.

The empire encourages the development of the people to space, and also supports the development of the people to space, countless interstellar companies, interstellar mining, interstellar agriculture, interstellar industry, interstellar tourism, interstellar entertainment, etc., almost all industries are developing towards the interstellar aspect, and the entire solar system is the backyard of the citizens of the empire.

Shan Ci looked at the busy scene in front of him, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, it's just that in just a few decades, when he was still studying on the earth, he couldn't imagine the current scene anyway, the speed of human development is too fast!

"That brother passing by for a favor, the energy on my aircraft is not enough, and I will be grateful when I turn back! The address coordinates are 243445/4827383/3248759" Just when Shan Ci was stunned, a voice begging for help came from the public channel.

"Boss, it's very close to us, we still have 2 units of energy left!" The assistant hurriedly reported the situation to Shan Ci.

"Send someone over!" Shan Ci did not hesitate to instruct, this time when everyone will have difficulties when they go out, whether it is the laws of the empire or the citizens of the empire themselves, it is appropriate to help each other.

"I'm quite close to you, I have 2 units of energy surplus here, and I've already sent someone to send it!" Shan Ci hurriedly contacted the other party and sent the message to the other party.

"Thank you so much! Single? Are you the single president of the famous Bella Interstellar Mining Company? I'll pay you back when I get back! The other party hurriedly thanked him, and at the same time knew Shan Ci's identity through communication.

"A little energy is not enough, have a drink together and make friends when you have time!" Shan Ci said boldly.

"Rejoice! I've made up your friends! ”

……

Nothing happened all the way, Shan Ci took his loot to the asteroid directly on Jupiter Mars, the asteroid here has long been mined, and like other areas, it has become very empty, however, the empire will obviously not give up here, and all the asteroids mined by the interstellar mining team need to be pulled here.

I saw that the asteroid belt in the distance was unusually busy, and countless aircraft dragged asteroids here, and then these asteroids were melted and smelted into single-element round spheres by huge solar mirrors, and then relied on the natural cooling of space, and were pulled to the side of a larger asteroid, and then dropped down.

Each of these huge asteroids is a single-element asteroid, all of which have been smelted and stacked together to form slowly, and the mass of each asteroid has been rigorously calculated, and after reaching a certain mass, it will not be put on it again, but will be waiting to be used.

Shan Ci looked at those asteroids, and couldn't help but want to drool, the most of these asteroids are iron-containing asteroids, and there are a lot of them, but there are some asteroids that are all composed of gold, silver, etc., these are very valuable!

"If only I could find another asteroid of pure gold!"

After Shan Ci delivered his asteroid, a sum of money went to his account, but now Shan Ci has already joined the empire, enjoyed many conveniences of the empire, and also has to pay expensive taxes, unlike before no one collected taxes.

"Brother Peng, I'll go home first, remember to ask me for a drink when you come back!" After the delivery of the order, he sent a message to the Peng brothers.

"Okay, get back together!" The Peng brothers readily agreed.

Shan Ci led his team back to Mars after a long absence, moored the huge spacecraft in the spaceport, replaced it with his own personal small vehicle, and flew to Mars.

If it is in the periphery, the aircraft is just like a bee, then here on Mars, the aircraft is already very dense, and all the flights must be flown according to the instructions of the central control computer, because the number is too much, the empire has a population of 500 million, and every household has a flying machine, and there is more than one number, which can be imagined!

Looking at the huge Pangea continent of Mars from space, there are dozens of cities in Pangea today, the southernmost one is located in Suzaku City, which is close to the Antarctic Circle, to the northernmost Riyan City, which is located in the equator, and there are dozens of cities distributed throughout the Pangea Continent.

Shan Ci is an immigrant, and the city where he lives is a newly built city later, located next to Qingquan Lake, the largest lake on Mars, Qingquan City is named after the emperor, the location is temperate, and it belongs to the inland city, but it is close to the lake, and the scenery is also very good.

The aircraft carrying Shan Ci soon came to the home in Qingquan City, Shan Ci's own children have also started a family, there are a lot of grandchildren, they have long been separated to live, and his wife doesn't know where to play, the home is relatively deserted, and there is nothing to do, Shan Ci turns on the TV and prepares to watch the imperial news.

"The Explorer 1 spacecraft sent to the constellation Centauri in the early days of the Empire's Clear Springs technology era has recently received news that the craft is expected to arrive in the constellation Centauri in a year's time, that is, on February 3, 2051, and according to the information received by the target, the centaur can already confirm that a civilization was born here, and we humans are about to contact the first alien civilization!"
