Chapter 278: Two out of four
"I think the first thing to develop EG000001 ..."Sophia stood up.
"The planet of EG000001, with a diameter of 20,000 kilometers, has a large number of superheavy elements with atomic number 80 or later, and the distribution of krypton, rubidium, strontium, yttrium, and copper exceeds 1,000 to 100,000 times that of the earth on average, becoming a natural superweight element resource star, and even the isotopes of these elements are quite widely distributed."
"According to alien geology, it is only under extremely harsh pressure and high temperatures that such terrestrial planets can allow protons and neutrons to bind so closely to create new matter, and it is a question of why these materials did not end up being crystallized by high temperature and high pressure carbon crystallization but evolved into such abundant superheavy matter."
"So far, superheavy elements are still relatively rare in the interior of the solar system, especially with the increase in industrial use, through the asteroid belt, Mars, Venus, Pluto."
"I think that's what EG000001 value to us, it's going to be a raw material supplier, it's going to be a big supply of raw materials, and I'm willing to take a lead team to the star system first."
Sophia looked around and said slowly: "The biggest problem in this place is the harsh gravity, in an environment of 3.5 times the standard gravity, no one can walk normally, and even produce all kinds of distortions, so immigrants who go to this planet to explore must undergo strict physical reinforcement adjustments to be able to adapt to the local environment." ”
Sophia's consideration is very detailed, which has aroused the resonance and recognition of many people, and many people think that this is indeed a good development object, and the most important thing is that according to the value of this area. The cumulative merits they have gained after the fact will exceed 1 million, which will help to fill their purses, fulfill their dream of buying a private Hengyue-class spaceship, and complete the genetic adjustment of the perfect human.
It can be said that the reason for choosing what star system to develop is that the East Galaxy Company lacks something. For example, until now, the precious super-heavy material industrial raw materials are absolutely expensive, perhaps reaching a price of hundreds of millions per ton, but these things are still difficult to make through biological machines, molecular machines, just because they can only make molecules, but cannot make scarce atoms.
Soon there was a mention of ε Poe constellation, a young galaxy 850 million years old that resembles the Sun. It is a star of the main sequence stage, with two layers of asteroid belts and two inconspicuous planets.
Focusing on the two asteroid belts, the spacecraft found the existence of a new type of superconductor at room temperature.
Superconductor, which is a special material without any resistance, diamagnetic, is usually at absolute zero. or near absolute zero, many common materials are converted to superconductors.
Superconductors are used to transmit electrical energy. In the case of light, the loss rate will be infinitely close to zero, but under normal circumstances, it is simply not practical to require superconductors to operate at absolute zero.
So scientists have been looking for room-temperature superconductors, and 100 years ago in the Iron Cross countries, scientists created ceramic superconductors at room temperature – albeit for only a few millionths of a microsecond.
Biological and molecular machines are capable of producing superconductors. However, the cost reduction is not much, but it is to loosen the price of room temperature superconductors, and there is no way to make it high enough to enter thousands of households.
Therefore, if there is a rich and natural stable superconductor at room temperature on the ε of the constellation Bojiang, the price of superconductors will undoubtedly plummet by 100 times in an instant, thus giving the planet a good development value.
Therefore, the development goal of the Bojiangzuo ε is still the supply of raw materials. The local remoteness and harsh environment lead to the fact that most of the materials have to rely on external supplies, whether it is soilless cultivation, greenhouses, and combined production workshops, they can only barely solve the needs of survival, but cannot ensure a rich material life. ”
After the two expounded their opinions, the rest of the employees were ready to move, and spoke one after another, digging out the value of the two star systems of Sirius and Lacaille9352, originally these four star systems were carefully selected, and the gap between them was not large, so this disagreement was difficult to judge for a while, but it only made the result of the argument more difficult to see.
Moreover, the above suggestions have not yet listed the follow-up development plans of the solar system and Centaur Alpha, only to see that Qiao Canal is already waiting for the opportunity to speak with confidence, and it is conceivable that he will definitely put forward a new big plan later.
All of these plans have been proposed, which will be a huge economic burden for the East Galaxy Company, with an investment of tens of trillions of dollars, involving the life, work, education, and countless supporting materials, spaceships, production equipment, energy, materials...
"Why hasn't Mr. Consultant spoken yet..."Gradually, some employees realized that Cao Chuan today seemed to be a little low-key, and he was completely watching the play.
Qiao Canal thought to himself: "Lao Cao is thinking about the deep space road, you must know that the deep space road is a route that symbolizes the direction of human development in the next few centuries, and its value is far above the star system we know. ”
It's just that the road to deep space is too long, and the known part alone is dozens of light-years long, and only Mr. Consultant can complete the exploration of it when he performs a special mission, at least at the recent point in time, it is impossible to explore it on a large scale, and he certainly doesn't need to express more opinions on this ordinary stellar exploration.
At this time, the conference room was quiet for a while, but for a short moment, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became weird, making people feel a sense of urgency that the mountain rain was coming, there were so many people who proposed development plans, and it was difficult to convince each other in a short time, so there was only a quarrel.
Moreover, because it is currently in the early stage of stellar exploration, only the exploration department is the most directly responsible department, and the other three departments cannot intervene justifiably for the time being, resulting in the following quarrels may be more intense and chaotic, and it is difficult to distinguish camps.
Seeing that the opportunity was coming, Qiao Canal hurriedly grabbed the right to speak and explained his centaur alpha development plan.
"Ladies and gentlemen, our follow-up planet exploration is not yet complete, let me explain the development plan of the next centaur alpha." Qiao Canal did not appear at the big meeting for a long time, so that the employees of the base camp forgot about his existence, until he reappeared at this moment, and everyone's hearts suddenly rose, for fear that he would make some trouble.
"For the sake of not going into a long sentence, I'll just briefly say that the follow-up development of Centaur Alpha is like this-"
"We invite the trade department to formally intervene and operate the crystal worm business."
"For the follow-up of the deep space road, I ask for an additional 10 trillion investment for the further development of Hope City, in line with the status of such a transportation hub planet."
It's very simple, but it's quite powerful.
After the first sentence was finished, before Wang Xian, Minister of the Trade Department, could speak, several team leaders had already stood up, this was a wonderful opportunity for the Trade Department to exert its subjective initiative, and how could they refuse the olive branch thrown by Vice Minister Qiao.
What they want to say is support, of course, but in this way, doesn't it mean that at the same time, the investment in other star development will suddenly be lost?
Those employees who are interested in their own stellar development plan immediately gritted their teeth, who called Qiao Canal This move is no less than a tiger's mouth, but at this moment, Qiao Canal and the trade department are still dry firewood, you and I are willing to do it, it is really mixed together, and it is powerless to raise any objections.
By the end of the second sentence, an employee finally found an opportunity to raise an objection.
"The Deep Space Path is indeed a promising tide of dark energy, but so far we don't know enough about it, and I think we will not talk about it until the White Lotus Princess 2 completes its longer exploration."
"Well..."Qiao Canal said euphemistically, in his heart he was actually confident, "To correct this employee's question, the first half of the Deep Space Road is 20 light years long, and this known part alone, there are a large number of sections that have reached a spatial folding magnification of more than 30, which will allow our existing jump spacecraft to easily maintain 1/2 of the speed of light, and if there is a more robust spaceship, it will even easily reach the speed of light." ”
"In addition, the second half of the Deep Space Path, perhaps the White Lotus Princess 2, which is behind the times, will be difficult to complete, Mr. Advisor will take his Galaxy Echo to explore, I believe that a better conclusion will be given at that time, so stay tuned." (To be continued.) )
