Chapter 330: Farming
Whether modern or new generations accept food that is traditionally grown outside the earth, or food that is produced on a large scale in factories, is one thing, and whether the food is safe is another.
No matter how it is produced, its safety is fundamental.
Hearing what Bao Qi was saying, Zuo Dajun said: "It's not okay to say this now, I also know that with time, everyone will accept it, but it will be difficult for everyone to accept it in a short period of time." ”
"Not necessarily." Bao Qizheng explained, "Don't forget the current level of medical care, think about it, no matter what you eat, it won't endanger your life anyway, do you think everyone will still demand absolute safety of food in this situation?" What's more, we have the ability to make food safe enough. ”
In his opinion, the current level of medical care can dispel people's doubts about "new food".
Zuo Dajun shook his head and said: "This is not necessarily, no matter what, these are difficult to accept in the short term, even if the medical level is good." ”
Fan Xiaoming looked at Bao Qizheng and Zuo Dajun, and said: "What's the use of you two arguing about this, believe it or not, once we fully open up the virtual universe, human beings can get the feeling of being able to get everything in the real world in the virtual universe, in this extreme situation, in the real world, people only need to obtain the most fundamental energy, as for the rest, it can be obtained in the virtual universe." ”
With a brain-computer equipped with brain-computer combination technology, it is completely possible to make people get the same feeling in the virtual universe as in the real world.
Once the virtual universe is fully released, you will be able to get the same experience in the virtual universe as in the real world.
For example, the need for food.
To put it simply, human beings' needs for food are one's own needs and their appetite.
In the virtual universe, all appetites can be satisfied, and any kind of dish and food can be transformed in an instant.
When people eat food in the virtual universe, it is nothing more than a signal that stimulates the human brain and makes it feel realistic.
In this case, in reality, as long as people meet the basic needs of the body, everything else can be obtained through the virtual universe.
Then the demand for the real world will be drastically reduced, and it will not just be the need for food, but all the needs.
More extremely, people can soak directly in the nutrient solution, and everything else can be obtained in the virtual universe.
Zuo Dajun said: "No! If you do this, you don't need to engage in these planting areas, you don't need to engage in space farms or anything, you don't need food or anything, just engage in nutrient solution, put on the brain computer, lie down in the nutrient solution, and don't care about anything. ”
Bao Qi nodded and said, "Not to mention, this extreme situation is possible, and such a situation has been described in science fiction." ”
Su Zhe said: "With the current science and technology, it is possible to achieve it, there is no problem with the brain-computer, we can make people's consciousness completely enter the virtual universe, and even make it impossible to distinguish between the virtual universe and the real world, as for the nutrient solution required to support the human body, it is very simple to achieve, after all, there is artificial uterus technology, and it is enough to modify this technology slightly." ”
It is technically feasible to realize the situation described by Fan Xiaoming.
Fan Xiaoming said: "If you really want to do this, it is actually feasible, technically feasible, and there is no ethical pressure, as far as I know, there are already scientific research teams doing research in this area, and I heard that the progress has been made is not small." ”
Xu Zhengping nodded, "Yes!" Actually, this research is not for what you say, but for interstellar exploration, such as exploring Proxima Centauri, or for long interstellar voyages. ”
"This ......" Zuo Dajun was a little confused, "I don't think this will be promoted on a large scale, if you really want to do this, then the focus of human beings will shift from the real world to the virtual universe, which is not conducive to the overall development of human beings, I don't agree with the promotion of this technology, and there is no need to promote it." ”
Bao Qi was looking at Zuo Dajun and said, "I don't see it, you are still so conservative." ”
Zuo Dajun hurriedly denied it, "I was conservative there, and what I said was the truth." ”
Fan Xiaoming saw that the two had a precursor to an argument, and said: "Actually, there is nothing to say about these, it is really difficult to say what will happen in the future, and besides, these are not for us to worry about, as for what will happen in the future, take one step at a time." ”
With the development of science and technology, there will be too many possibilities.
Zhou Dashi nodded and said: "It will definitely be diversified in the future, what kind of life you want to live depends on your personal choice, some people like to live a farming life, some people like to travel, some people like to explore, some people are willing to stay in the real world, some people are willing to stay in the virtual universe, these depend on personal wishes." ”
Han Li said: "This is the truth, diversification, take myself as an example, I like farming life, planting a few acres of land in the countryside to be self-sufficient, there were no such conditions in the past, now I can, and after the popularization of brain computers, I am ready to go back to my hometown to live such a life." ”
After the brain-computer equipped with brain-computer combination technology and the upgraded humanoid simulation robot came out, he had such an idea.
With these, he can go back to his hometown and live the life he wants without delaying his own work.
Zhou Dashi looked at Han Li and said: "I didn't expect you to have the same idea as me, don't look at me less than thirty, I still yearn for rural life, besides, I don't have to worry about eating and drinking under the current conditions, I don't have to worry about survival at all, I can live the life I want." ”
With the current conditions, going home to farm will not delay his current work.
"Yes! Diversity is the trend, and now there are conditions for everyone to live the life they want. Xu Zhengping looked at the exit of the passage and said, "When I get to the breeding area, I want to see what is raised here." ”
A group of seven people walked out of the passage, and a few people in the distance heard the sound of pigs.
There were a hundred and ten pigs in the space that Su Zhe and the seven could see, and these pigs were all half-sized piglets.
Some of these piglets were looking for food on the ground, some were fighting, and some were stunned to see the seven people who suddenly appeared.
"It's been half a month since these piglets were transported from the earth, and they were a little uncomfortable at first, but now they are all adapted, and they have grown a lot of meat."
"These pigs are semi-free-range, and only 500 piglets are free-range in this 100-square-kilometer area, and most of the crops grown in the planting area will be put into the breeding area."
"In fact, the breeding area is only experimental breeding, and the pigs, chickens and ducks raised now are not for eating, but for research, on the one hand, to verify the safety of the crops produced in the planting area, and on the other hand, to verify that the breeding is safe."
……
A group of seven people first visited the minus 50 floors of pig raising, and then visited these floors of chickens, ducks and geese.
After visiting these, a group of seven people took the elevator back to the ground.
Under the leadership of Zhou Dashi, several people went to the Yuecheng Central Control Center located next to the center of Yuecheng.
The group took the elevator to the underground Moon City Central Control Center.
After a series of access controls, the group came to the control hall of the central control center of Moon City.
In the control hall, there are many people and humanoid robots.
When these people saw the arrival of Su Zhe and the others, they surrounded them one after another.
"This is the upgraded humanoid humanoid robot! It's no different from a human, it's much more advanced than a humanoid robot that hasn't been upgraded. ”
"When will brain-machines and upgraded humanoid robots become popular? If it becomes popular, I can remotely control a humanoid robot to do my current job, and I won't have to be on the moon forever. ”
"It's so handsome, the exoskeleton armor of this humanoid robot is very powerful."
……
After a while, these people returned to their respective jobs.
At this time, Zhou Dashi began to introduce.
The central control center of Moon City is the core of Moon City, and all the data of Moon City must be gathered here in the end. And the control hall is the core of the control center of Moon City.
Zhou Dashi looked at the people at work and said: "At this stage, there are still people here, but after the brain computer and the upgraded humanoid imitation robot are popularized, the people here can be replaced." ”
Zuo Dajun said: "It can't be completely replaced, if there is a communication problem, the humanoid robot will be blind, no matter what, a small number of people are still necessary." ”
Zhou Dashi glanced at Zuo Dajun obliquely, "Yes! This is a special case, there are reserve personnel like this, but this is a special case, and I am talking about normal working personnel. ”
The group went around the central control center of Yuecheng, and basically understood the situation in Yuecheng under the introduction of Zhou Dashi.
Moon City is divided into above-ground and underground parts, which are mainly in the underground part.
The most important thing is that the entire Moon City is fully automated and intelligent.
Under normal circumstances, the operation of Moon City does not require the participation of one person.
Zuo Dajun looked at the full map of Moon City displayed on the big screen in the control hall and said: "This is the real science fiction city, which is completely in line with everyone's imagination. ”
Several people nodded.
The group left the Moon City Central Control Center and returned to the ground.
In the process of flying to the satellite city, Zhou Dashi explained: "The construction of the Moon City is a template for the development of other planets in the future, and in the case of Mars, we will also use the same way to develop, rather than comprehensively transforming Mars." ”
Compared to a comprehensive transformation, a way to build a moon city like this is much faster.
Take Mars as an example, relevant scientific research teams have also modified Mars to make the Martian environment suitable for human survival.
It's just that the process of transformation is very long, and there are many uncertainties.
In the end, the development of Mars is still the same as the development of the moon.
As far as he knew, there would probably be fewer and fewer ways to build cities on planets like this in the future.
In practice, there is growing support for building space cities from scratch, and these planets are only used as resource extraction sites.
The reason for this is because of the controllability of the space city.
During this time, he was involved in more than 10 space city design projects.
One of the largest space cities, for example, is a circular structure with a diameter of more than 500 kilometers, a ring width of 10 kilometers, and a usable area of more than 30,000 square kilometers.
This space city is all about life and entertainment.
Crucially, such a space city can move around the solar system, like a cruise ship.
It is foreseeable that there will be more and more such space cities in the future.
As for those planets, they can only be used as resource extraction sites.
Zuo Dajun nodded and said: "There is no way, even if we have that ability, it will take a long time to fully transform Mars, it is too slow for us humans, and the development method of the moon is the most appropriate." ”
"That's right." Xu Zhengping said.
The group came to the sky above the first satellite city, and everyone did not go down, but just walked around the sky above the satellite city, and listened to Zhou Dashi's introduction.
The speed of seven people = still very fast, and it didn't take long to see all ten satellite cities.
The functions of the ten satellite cities are complementary to the main city, Moon City, and their basic structure is the same but each has its own characteristics.
To put it simply, a main city and ten satellite cities, a total of 11 industrial cities, with a resident population of 20 million, which cover all the industrial categories in front of human beings, and there are many research centers and laboratories in these 11 industrial cities.
Eleven industrial cities contain research and manufacturing.
As for the positioning of the eleven industrial cities on the moon, it is mainly to undertake the deindustrialization of the earth, and it will serve as a research and development center for mankind and has the task of manufacturing industrial products around the earth.
In the early stage, it will also undertake the task of developing Mars.
After visiting the ten satellite cities, the group of seven returned to the lunar base.
Under the noses of Han Li and Zhou Dashi, the humanoid simulated robot controlled by Su Zhe, Fan Xiaoming, Xu Zhengping, Zuo Dajun, and Bao Qizheng entered the engineering mecha parked at the entrance of the lunar base.
After the five people greeted each other, the five engineering mechs rose from the ground, and their acceleration directly reached one hundred and fifty G.
In just a few seconds, five engineering mechs entered the beam passage from the moon to the spaceport in geosynchronous orbit.
Zuo Dajun said: "Still flying violently!" ”
"Yes! This will allow you to return to Earth sooner. Fan Xiaoming said.
After the five engineering mechs entered the beam channel, they maintained an acceleration of one hundred and fifty g.
As time went on, the speed of the five engineering mechs became faster and faster.
Xu Zhengping reminded: "Today's experience is basically over, and we should write an experience report next." ”
When they remotely control humanoid robots and engineering mechs through brain-computer remotely, data on their interaction with the brain will be collected and analyzed.
Of course, optimizing brain-computer and humanoid humanoid robots and engineering mecha is not only about the collected data, but also about the subjective feelings of the user.
You know, the data collected is the interaction data between the terminal and the brain, and it does not collect the actual feelings in the brain.
】
However, the optimization of brain-computer requires the subjective feeling of the user.
