Chapter 15 Morphological Memory Alloy
It's been a year since the stream of high-energy particles blows, and during this time, Noah has been riding the ark to clean up the larger debris that could hit the Earth. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
A new asteroid belt appeared at the site of the collision between the moon and the comet, and although it is an asteroid belt, the debris left by the moon and the comet has not been able to break free from the shackles of the sun's gravity and revolve around the sun. The resources that can be extracted from it are very limited.
During the evacuation, Noah carried nearly 10,000 tons of helium-3 and deuterium, which filled the holdrooms of dozens of transport ships.
Nuclear fusion power generation is not the chemical fuel power generation of the old era, and the 10,000 tons of fusion raw materials alone are enough to support Noah's development for dozens of centuries if calculated according to the energy consumption rate of the original reconstruction work.
Therefore, energy will not be a problem for Noah to worry about for the time being, but the lack of some resources has greatly restricted the development of young girls.
There is enough energy for the operation of the ship, but what about the creation of the ship?
The depletion of mineral resources has forced Noah to dismantle robots or transport ships to make satellites and some necessary equipment.
And Noah set his sights on Mars in search of mineral resources.
The density and structure of Mars are similar to the earth, and the mineral resources are also similar to the earth, the soil on the surface of Mars has a high iron content, and the weathered soil of more than 20 meters thick contains a large amount of iron oxide, and a large number of important minerals such as silicon, magnesium, aluminum, calthion, titanium and potassium are buried underground, and also contain substances such as zinc, manganese, copper, molybdenum, etc.
It is worth mentioning that there are also a large number of rare earths buried on Mars.
But the problem is that Mars is a planet after all, unlike the asteroid belt, which is composed of countless rocks rich in minerals, and a complete industrial production chain is essential to mine resources on Mars on a large scale.
And the construction of an industrial production chain itself requires a lot of resources......
And once back to the pre-liberation period, it was Noah's current situation.
Noah only sighed slightly.
"It seems that the only way to do this is to take your time, first land a part of the fleet for small-scale mining work, and use the resources mined to build a complete production chain."
With the girl made up her mind, the huge fleet began to head for Mars.
The site of the comet where the moon hit was just in the middle of the orbit of Mars and the orbit of the Earth, and Mars at that time happened to be nearby, so Mars was also lucky to be the witness of the most spectacular meteor shower ever seen in the solar system, and the atmosphere of Mars is very thin compared to the Earth, so that a large number of meteorites have fallen on the surface of Mars.
When Noah led the fleet through the atmosphere, the dense craters on the surface made Noah secretly apologize to Mars in his heart.
The fleet began to land on the surface of Mars, the robots walked down from the transport ship, due to the atmospheric disturbance caused by the impact, the air was filled with a large amount of yellow sand, the yellow sand at a speed of dozens of kilometers per hour rubbed a harsh sound on the shell of the spaceship, the dark brown weathered ground spread into the distance, and the girl in the main control room of the spaceship looked at the infinitely desolate scenery, and an inexplicable brilliance flashed in her eyes.
"It's like Earth."
Noah said such a thing unconsciously, but after she reacted, she didn't understand why she said it.
Noah shook his head to make himself sober, the long hair behind him danced like a wave, although it was meaningless for artificial intelligence to let his hologram do these actions, but Noah, who had been learning and imitating human behavior all the time, unconsciously retained this habit.
Speaking of human beings, Noah has been seriously considering whether to create a group of human beings recently, after all, Noah's database has all the information of the human genome project, and he can obtain complete DNA samples from human remains scattered all over the earth at any time, although it will be very troublesome, borrowing the cell structure of some microorganisms that are still fighting against the environment in the depths of the earth, it is not impossible to make a fertilized egg that can develop.
Although Noah is an electronic life, it is life after all, not a bunch of cold machinery, century-level time, only the sea of stars and machinery accompany him, it is too lonely for any life, Noah knows that in the past half a century, he may not have been by Lin Xuan's side for more than an hour before.
But even if Noah wanted to make humans, what about after making humans? Can they adapt to such a difficult environment, can they endure such a long period of loneliness? I have to say that in the cosmic environment, human beings are very delicate creatures, and the living conditions they need are too superior, and Noah, who is now in the predicament of civilization, has no ability to create a beautiful environment for human beings.
Out of many considerations, Noah had to put this unrealistic idea behind him for the time being, and now that civilization has reached the point of poverty, too much extravagance will only make him unhappy.
The first mining teams set off, thousands of resource exploration robots flew out in all directions, they will scan the buried resources from high above the ground, and each possible resource point will be recorded by Noah on the map of Mars, which is being perfected, and at the same time, the construction of the first Martian facilities has begun.
"Large-scale gold mines, industrial use is not large, if it is silver and copper mines, it can also be used to make communication wires. -- Noah's report. ”
"Natural gas, the storage capacity is estimated to be about 100,000 cubic meters, and the total available energy is less than 10%, so give up. - Doubting the barrenness of Mars, Noah's report. ”
"Lanthanide was detected, and Mining Teams 3 to 7 immediately went to find out. -- Mood index up 5 percentage points, Noah reports. ”
"Iron Oxide Silicon Canyon, Squad 8 to 10 Connecting ...... - Noah's Report."
In order to alleviate his loneliness, Noah began to try to report information to himself, and the resource exploration work was rapidly advanced, because Mars has an atmosphere, Noah found that the principle of helicopters was simple and easy to produce, and the old transportation vehicles with low consumption and large cargo capacity were very suitable for his current situation at the moment.
So Noah decided to produce a batch of helicopters, and use them to replace the transport ships that consume huge sums to transport the surface of Mars, of course, Noah must also make appropriate modifications, otherwise the helicopter will not be able to fly stably in such bad weather as Mars, just as Noah is concentrating on discovering the resources buried in the ground of Mars, an interesting piece of information attracts the girl's attention.
Noah was intrigued by the initial analysis of a construction robot that was being found in a crater while laying the foundation for a future industrial facility, and the object was sent to the Ark as quickly as possible, and Noah immediately began a comprehensive analysis of it.
From the appearance of just a black irregular ore, but it has been grinding the alloy drill bit wrapped by the robot with the diamond shell, isn't the diamond the hardest ore in nature, and it is not digging diamond mines, how can it be grinded alive?
But when the results of the analysis came out, Noah was completely quiet.
Noah knew why the diamond drill bit was completely worn off.
It's easy to understand, isn't it, even the sharpest bronze sword of the Warring States period can't cut through modern stainless steel.
This is an alloy composed mainly of nickel and titanium, but its surface is covered with a very thin shell, how thin is it? A single nucleus is so thin.
Because this shell is composed of dense single nuclei, there is not a single electron to be found......
Because the nucleus is positively charged and the electrons are negatively charged, the atoms as a whole are electrically balanced, so they will not repel or attract other atoms, so that a large number of atoms can form a whole to form matter.
But this shell, which is entirely made of atomic nuclei, undoubtedly breaks the theorem of repulsion of charged bodies. This brought Noah to something to mind - GUTs (Grand Unified Theory).
In the derivative technology of the Grand Unified Theory, it has been mentioned that the strong interaction force among the four fundamental forces is used to fix atomic nuclei of a certain order of magnitude, thus giving birth to materials technology with a density close to that of neutron stars......
But this is only a theoretical thing, and what shocked Noah the most was that the existence of this alloy seemed to be above that, because the nuclear shell of this alloy was not simply fixed, and with the change of the extremely malleable nitinol under the shell, the shell seemed to be able to undergo some kind of intelligent change to cater to such changes.
In other words, this is a shape memory alloy with super hardness and good ductility at the same time! What a perfect material!
"The database is not included, and the working principle cannot be understood. -- Noah's report. ”
This kind of material technology is undoubtedly at least 50 years ahead of the earth in the 23rd century!
Noah's heart at this moment is not only amazed by this piece of memory metal, but a deeper question makes the girl lose in it.
Where did this thing come from?
Naturally formed? So what kind of material science and technology is developing!? Let's go mining every day!
Earth does not have the ability to produce such a thing, is it really the remnants of the lost civilization that once existed on Mars? But the girl hates this statement the most, just as she hates some fools in the old civilization who pushed it to aliens when they encountered unexplained phenomena.
Noah couldn't help but think of something, and his brow furrowed slightly.
Could it be...... That golden comet!?
During the impact of the moon and the comet, a large amount of debris did fall to the surface of Mars, perhaps at that time?
But if the comet was made of this material throughout, Noah really doubted that the moon could stop it, saying that it could crash through the Earth unscathed.
Either way, the comet itself was odd, popping out of the back of Neptune with an unusual speed and an illusion not governed by classical mechanics......
Noah knew that he might need to go behind Neptune......
Look at the solar system, is it really ushered in such a bloody movie drama as an alien invasion?
"Expedition to extraterrestrial civilizations in the solar system. -- Noah's report. ”
