Chapter 591: The Venusians

In the Cloud Palace base, there are already hundreds of synchronous robots working at this time.

For the arrival of Bai Yulou and others, they are still very concerned and concerned.

Soon Bai Yulou and his party were arranged in the dormitory in the residential area, in fact, the residential area of the Cloud Palace base was only a decoration before, and there were no living people in it.

After arranging accommodation, Wu Tengfei, the rotating director of the base, hurriedly took them to the hospital in the residential area for a comprehensive physical examination.

This is also the main purpose of Bai Yulou and the others coming to Venus, as for other things, they are secondary.

After a complete set of physical examinations, there was no major problem with Bai Yulou and the others' bodies.

Wu Tengfei breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then said through the synchronization robot: "Captain Bai, Vice Captain Simon, you can move freely next, but if you want to go out, you need to apply for a special application." ”

"No problem."

"We can do some scientific work."

After arranging the astronauts, Wu Tengfei returned to his job.

Bai Yulou and Simon discussed and divided the 20 astronauts into two groups, one group was free to work one day and work one day, and took turns back and forth.

None of them had the idea of working on the first day, mainly because they had just arrived at Venus, and they still needed to further acclimatize to the environment, and there was no need to be too tired now.

During the first half of the month's adaptation period, they planned to take a good look at the Cloud Palace base.

After all, this is a behemoth with an area of more than 3,000 square kilometers and a thickness of about 750 meters.

A group of astronauts surveyed the entire residential area in groups, which is very large, about 15 square kilometers, with a height of 100 meters, wrapped in a buoyancy layer composed of vacuum carbon balls.

When the hospital came out, there was a street in front of it, and there were several electric cars parked on both sides of the street, but these electric cars were fixed to special parking spaces.

Bai Yulou is clear about this, after all, the cloud palace base is easily disturbed by the wind in the early stage, causing continuous vibration and shaking, so many things in the base must be fixed, otherwise it is easy to bump everywhere.

However, as the scale of the Cloud Palace base has become larger and larger, this phenomenon of wind disturbance has become smaller and smaller.

Using the employee card, Bai Yulou drove away an electric car.

Although the streets are deserted, he believes that in the near future, it will become the new home of new humanity.

Venus is the only planet in the solar system that may become a new Earth, and it is unlikely that any other planet in the solar system will be transformed into a habitable planet in the short term.

After all, if the difference in gravity is too great, it is a fatal problem.

For example, Musk, who has been clamoring to colonize Mars, has a grand plan, which is just a plan, and there is no possibility of realizing it in a short period of time.

The difference in gravity between Mars and Earth is enough for humans who immigrate to Mars to produce irreversible genetic mutations and body shape changes, as well as unpredictable new diseases.

Homo sapiens has placed hundreds of anthropomorphic humans in the Utopia Station on the Martian Utopia Plain, and through the situation of these anthropomorphic humans, it has been preliminarily determined that Mars is not suitable as a new home for humans.

Even new humans after a complete transformation will not be able to live on Mars for a long time unless they are willing to become "Martians".

At present, in the cloud palace base of Venus, the difference between the internal gravity and the earth is about 0.8, less than one-tenth of the difference, which is barely acceptable.

Even if you live on Venus for a long time, you can adapt in a short time after returning to Earth.

If you live on Mars for a long time, it will be difficult to adapt to the gravity of the earth in a short period of time after returning to the earth, and there may even be cases where the internal organs are crushed and you can't breathe and your bones are broken.

This is very similar to diving, ordinary people have no professional training, and the diving depth can only be within 10 meters.

Bai Yulou and others, as participants in the warrior project, are actually guinea pigs, but the company did not force them, and the astronauts who participated in the experiment this time took the initiative to sign up for participation.

Excluding those who are only children, too young and too old, the Warrior Project has recruited a total of 2,000 astronauts, and Bai Yulou and others are only the first batch.

If after half a year, there are no major problems with this group of astronauts, then the next batch of astronauts participating in the experiment will reach 100 people.

Bai Yulou and Simon drove the car and were familiar with the entire residential area, which may be the place where they will live for a long time in the future, so they naturally have to be familiar with it well.

Residential facilities include dormitories, hospitals, nursing homes, kindergartens, schools, restaurants, and various service industries.

However, what the two of them are most concerned about is the emergency shelter and the escape spaceship, which are the first time to investigate and familiarize themselves with the system when staying in every alien base.

Although Homo sapiens has deployed 372 artificial satellites in Venus's low-Earth orbit and geosynchronous orbit, it can monitor most of the dangers from outer space, some dangers are difficult to avoid.

For example, the sudden outbreak of Gama ray bursts, or solar storms, even if these dangers are detected, it is estimated that they cannot be stopped, and they can only be resigned to fate.

The bad thing about Venus is that it is too close to the sun, and it does not have a strong magnetic field to resist the charged particles of the solar storm, so the surface of the cloud palace base is easily disturbed by the solar wind.

In order to avoid being disturbed by the solar wind, the Cloud Palace base has adopted a very special plan, that is, it always has its back to the sun.

This is to take advantage of the ultra-long rotation of Venus, one day on Venus, which is equivalent to 243 Earth days, plus the inclination angle of the Earth's axis of Venus is very large, and the air at high altitude is relatively thin, resulting in the cloud palace base can float in the back area that cannot be illuminated by the sun for a long time.

In this way, the Cloud Palace Base does not need to worry too much about the solar storm in the early stage.

Anyway, if you don't shine on the sun, the Yungong base can also get a huge amount of geothermal energy and solar energy, plus its own nuclear battery, energy is not a problem.

Bai Yulou and Simon parked the car in the parking space, and after pressing the parking button, the parking space automatically stretched out the clip and buckled the four wheel hubs.

"This is the refuge, let's go! Go inside and have a look. ”

The two of them swiped their cards and walked into the shelter.

This is a cylindrical building, which is actually a spaceship transformation, and in the event of an emergency, it can be untied at any time and will drive the spaceship out of the cloud palace base.

And such a ship has one on each of the four corners of a residential area.

The facilities inside, Bai Yulou and Simon took a look at it and found that a spaceship could accommodate 500 people to escape.

"Too little." Simon patted the life support pod in front of him.

Bai Yulou shook his head: "Don't worry about it, the company will arrange it, after all, there are only twenty of us in the residential area now, and we will definitely add it with the increase in population in the future." ”

Simon is still a little worried: "Food is also a problem, in case the escape spacecraft gets lost, we have no way to rescue in time, and the food stored by the spacecraft can only last for 3 months." ”

"You can't have it both ways, and there is a contradiction between the number of passengers and the maintenance of food in the escape spacecraft." Bai Yulou couldn't do anything about it.

The only solution is to increase the size of the escape ship to prolong the food inside the escape ship.
