Chapter 478: The Penglai Space City under construction
Hearing Su Zhe say this, Zuo Dajun was even more embarrassed and said, "It's okay! I'm talented, I'm not bad, as long as I look a little lower, and I can find a target quickly, rest assured, I will never delay the population increase plan."
Fan Xiaoming smiled and said: "This is the truth, now everyone is not short of money, but now everyone's mate selection standards have been improved, and they must be good-looking and knowledgeable, anyway, they just ask for a lot, and they all want to find the perfect partner, is it possible!" As long as you are human, you have shortcomings, and it is basically impossible to find the perfect object."
Now everyone is not short of money, but it is still not easy to find a partner.
Like those who fancy each other, they got married early, and as for the high requirements, they keep picking them.
You know, now is not the past, in the past, I would have wronged myself because of the problem of "money", but now, no one is short of money, and I want to find someone I am satisfied with.
But the actual situation is that the people you look at, people don't look down on you, and as for the people who look at each other at the same time, it's getting fewer and fewer.
Su Zhe nodded and said, "What kind of perfect people are there, army! You still don't have to be too picky, it's almost fine, now it's not in the past, no one will be wronged by money anymore, they all want to find what they like, the current situation is, the more you look for it, the more difficult it is to find the back, and in the end it's all picky, so it's even more difficult."
Zuo Dajun nodded again and again, and said: "I know, you can rest assured, I will definitely find the target before the implementation of the population increase plan, I still have this confidence, that, don't talk about this, let's continue to visit this villa, it is said that this Penglai space city is really well built, there is everything, such conditions, and living on the earth is no different at all."
The trio continued their tour of the villa.
After visiting the villa, the three of them continued to visit the Penglai Space City under construction.
At the moment, they are visiting a food synthesis factory.
This food synthesis factory is very advanced, and as long as it provides energy and the most basic raw materials, it can continuously produce a variety of foods.
The problem of energy is easy to solve, there is a proton nuclear fusion device, as long as there is hydrogen, there can be a steady stream of energy available, only raw materials, in fact, as long as the most basic elements are provided.
For example, carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and so on.
Zuo Dajun looked at the food synthesis factory being built in front of him and sighed, "Look at how fast we are developing, even if we start counting from last year, it will only take more than a year. We have completely solved the problem of human food, as long as there is energy and resources, we will continue to synthesize food, in the past, that can only be seen in science fiction, but now we have realized, of course, now everyone generally does not accept this kind of synthetic food, everyone basically agrees with the food obtained in the traditional way."
Now this kind of synthetic food is the fastest, whether it is mass production or other, in terms of output, the traditional way is far from comparable.
For example, rice is traditionally obtained by growing rice.
In the current situation, there is large-scale cultivation on Earth, and there are many space farms in space, in this case, there will be a steady stream of rice production.
Whether it's planted on Earth or on a space farm, in the final analysis, rice is obtained by growing rice.
This is the traditional way, and now there are more ways to get rice.
For example, through biological methods, that is, the genes of rice are started, so that it can directly synthesize seeds, and this way can also obtain rice, but this method is not fast enough.
The fastest way is to synthesize rice directly.
This method uses the most basic elemental substances to synthesize rice, which is faster and easier to achieve on a large scale than other methods.
With the exception of rice, almost all foods of human beings can be synthesized in the same way.
Although it is easier to obtain food by synthesizing, synthetic food is still not acceptable to everyone, which is why food is grown on Earth, and there are many space farms and the like in space.
To put it mildly, the pace of development is too fast, and people's opinions simply do not have time to change.
Of course, no one wants everyone to eat synthetic food now, and basically they still adopt the way of planting and breeding, that is, the traditional way to obtain food.
If you really want to talk about it, the difference between these synthetic foods and the food obtained by traditional methods is very small, and the traditional methods can be completely replaced.
However, now there are conditions, there is no shortage of resources and energy, and everyone can provide whatever kind of food they want, and as for synthesis, it is all spare.
Fan Xiaoming nodded and said, "Yes! I know that synthetic food is similar to traditional food, but if I had to choose, I would still choose food obtained through traditional methods, probably because it is psychological! It is estimated that it is also our generation, and the children of the future may think that we are sick, and we can obtain food in the simplest way, but we use the most troublesome way, just like the Penglai Space City, the food synthesis factory was built just in case, but it will always be accepted by the children in the future, if you want me to say, over time, synthetic food will eventually become the mainstream, as for whether it is healthy or not, as far as the current medical technology is concerned, as long as it is not brain dead on the spot, it can be cured, and I am not afraid."
In his own case, not accepting synthetic food is psychological.
But the reality is that there are only very few differences between synthetic foods and traditional foods, only tastes and something, and that is exactly the same.
Even if there are some differences, which will lead to diseases or something, current medical technology can also erase this difference.
To put it simply, no matter what food you eat, your basic health is guaranteed.
But even so, everyone still generally does not accept it.
It is understandable not to accept it, but it is certain that synthetic food will become mainstream, and even if this generation cannot accept it, the next generation will accept it.
For them, if they don't accept it, they won't accept it, and they can continue to get food through traditional means, and there is no shortage of resources and energy anyway.
Su Zhe smiled and said: "People's views are difficult to change for a while, we don't have to worry too much, for example, those people who take Penglai Space City to Proxima Centauri, if they have a choice, they still have to eat food obtained in traditional ways, only the food synthesis factory built, that is, just in case, in extreme circumstances, the people on Penglai Space City can rely on the food synthesis factory to survive for a long time."
These people who took the Penglai Space City to Proxima Centauri, the food they ate was basically stored in advance.
Some vegetables and the like are grown in the Penglai Space City.
But considering the extreme situation, there is a need for a food synthesis factory on the Penglai Space City.
Zuo Dajun thought for a while and said: "That, I think it will be difficult for the food synthesis factory to become the mainstream in the future, in my opinion, in the future, human beings may not even be too lazy to eat, and now the life support device that is being studied, people can rely on such a device for a long time, and it will be okay to lie directly in such a device in the future, in this way, what to eat, drink and Lazar will be saved, only appetite and the like, what cannot be realized in the virtual universe, in my opinion, this method is most likely to become the mainstream of our human beings."
What a hassle to eat! I just don't eat it, regardless of whether it's synthetic or traditionally obtained.
With this kind of device, people don't need to eat, drink, and lazar, and as for their desires, they can be solved in the virtual universe.
In this case, who cares what kind of food they eat.
Hearing Zuo Dajun say this, Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming nodded again and again.
Fan Xiaoming smiled and said, "It's still possible, it doesn't matter what kind of food you eat, but that's a long, long time later, at least our generation won't abandon our bodies."
If this is the case, then the meaning of the existence of the human body is to carry the consciousness of the human being, and there is not much difference from leaving a single brain.
Of course, this is a long time away and will not happen now.
Zuo Dajun nodded and said, "That's the truth, as far as I'm concerned, I still like it very much
My own body, besides, the virtual universe will not be completely opened all at once, and the device that can maintain human life for a long time has not been made, technically it can be one thing, whether we should take this way is another matter, as far as I estimate, for a long time, such a situation will not appear, as far as the virtual universe is fully opened, if it is really opened, then many people will be lost in the virtual universe, and the process must be slow."
Fan Xiaoming said: "Real-time is like this, for the development of the virtual universe, we must be restrained, if we really let go, believe it or not, many people will give up the development of the real universe, will throw themselves into the virtual universe, if not now, in the real universe, there are still these basic cosmic rules restricted, there are always some things that cannot be done, but in the virtual universe, let go, that is God, only unthinkable, nothing can not be done, so it is difficult for us to fully let go of the virtual universe, Besides, the focus of our development is the real universe, even if it is for the development of the virtual universe, we must also pay attention to the development of the real universe, after all, the virtual universe depends on the existence of the real universe."
In fact, the focus of human development is on the real universe rather than the virtual universe.
The main purpose of developing the virtual universe is to better develop the real universe.
You can't put the cart before the horse.
Su Zhe looked at the food synthesis factory being built in front of him, and said with a smile: "Or we are developing too fast, our thinking is a little unable to keep up with the pace of development, we have achieved energy freedom, resource freedom, for the future of mankind, we are very much looking forward to it, but in the end what the future will be, it is really difficult to say, if we are conservative, if we are too radical, it is difficult to say, how to say, we have to slow down our pace now, of course, I am talking about society, as for science and technology, Then you are welcome, we can develop as fast as we can, what we need is stable development, taking advantage of the increase in human population, we must precipitate our culture well, and in this way, we can go far."
Over the past year or so, the development of technology has had a great impact on society, and fundamental changes have taken place in many aspects.
You need to slow down.
Fan Xiaoming smiled and said, "Yes! Over the past year or so, we have developed too fast, especially the changes that science and technology have brought to society, and we really need to slow down and lay a good foundation for our future development."
Zuo Dajun nodded and said: "The current development momentum is very good, but the actual situation is internal and external troubles, the more advanced science and technology, the more destructive it is, we must prevent the emergence of madmen within the human race, externally, we must always pay attention to the existence of aliens, this is not a joke, we are in danger of extinction of human beings."
The more advanced science and technology are, the greater the threat to humanity.
In the past, just like nuclear weapons, nuclear weapons were an absolute danger to mankind, and everyone was afraid of nuclear weapons, and the control of nuclear weapons was quite strict.
In the past, nuclear weapons were almost the same as threats to humanity, but now they are different.
Artificial intelligence, robots, biotechnology, etc., there are many technologies that can threaten the survival of the entire human race.
On the other hand, it is necessary to prevent these technologies that threaten humanity from being mastered by people with bad intentions, or those who cannot control them.
This is an internal worry, as for the external trouble, the number one threat is aliens, and then there is the general environment of the universe.
You know, there must be aliens in the universe, that's for sure, but it's hard to say when you meet aliens, whether we find aliens or aliens who discover us, the result is different.
But with the development of human beings, the discovery of aliens, or the discovery of aliens, is certain, the difference is a matter of time.
Changes in the cosmic environment also pose a threat to mankind.
For example, if the earth's environment changes, needless to say, the earth's environment will no longer be suitable for human survival.
In the same way, if the environment of the solar system changes, the environment of the earth will inevitably change as well.
Although now human beings are now capable of survival
It has been greatly strengthened to survive without relying on star systems, and can build a human habitat in space.
Even so, if the general environment of the universe changes greatly, it is not surprising that humanity will be wiped out.
For example, black holes, the Milky Way has changed dramatically, and so on.
Of course, in the early stage of human development, these threats to human beings are huge, and one carelessness is annihilation, but as long as human development is past the early stage, it is difficult to want human beings to be wiped out. net
To put it simply, now is the early stage of human development, we must be cautious, we must develop step by step, if we are not careful enough, we may face the possibility of annihilation.
But as long as we have passed the early stage of human development, human beings do not need to be careful.
