Chapter 32 Migration
At this moment, among the hundreds of research centers that had been built before, but had always been vacant, the experimental robots finally began to move.
In the chemistry laboratory, the robotic arm took various reagents and began to operate in the fume hood; In the materials laboratory, the tomography microscope began to scan the fractures of metal materials, and began to try to process metals under various smelting and casting conditions;
In the propulsion laboratory, various high-performance chemical propellants began to burn violently, dragging a long tail flame behind the experimental equipment. In the electromagnetic acceleration laboratory, electromagnetic coils up to several kilometers in length are plugged in, and projectiles run at high speed in them......
There are dedicated supercomputing centers that take on the task of computing the data generated by these labs. The final calculation results were entered into Chen Yue, and further induction, sorting, analysis, association, speculation and other things that only Chen Yue could do by himself.
Chen Yue's scientific research model is actually similar to that of human beings on the earth. Scientists on Earth are also using supercomputers to collect and analyze data preliminarily, and further process the final results. Chen Yue, on the other hand, has replaced thousands of scientists by himself, and can complete the processing of many scientific categories and experimental data by himself.
Under such circumstances, the original Wooden Eight spaceship was gradually eliminated, and Chen Yue finally created a newly upgraded Wooden Nine spaceship.
Chen Yue had already built a lot of the original interstellar transport ships, and their initial form was very different from the original Muba-type spaceship. But in the final analysis, those interstellar transport ships are just improved models of the Muhachi-type spacecraft, and they cannot be regarded as a new generation.
At this moment, the updated engine layout, improved fuel efficiency, reconstructed overall structure, and upgraded material performance of the Mu-9 spacecraft can be regarded as a new generation of spacecraft.
It should be noted that the Mu-8 and Mu-9 spaceships referred to by Chen Yue are actually the collective names of a series of engine technology, material technology, structural layout and other technologies. As long as the spacecraft is built based on this technical architecture, no matter what the shape is, no matter what the specific purpose is, whether it is an interstellar transport ship or a communication rescue ship, it is collectively called the Wood 8 or Wood 9.
Now, compared to the Wood Eight, the Wood Nine spacecraft has more powerful performance. It is more resistant to radiation, has better stability, has more thrust and is faster.
But Chen Yue was still a little dissatisfied in his heart.
"Up to now, all the spaceships I've built are still only in the civilian realm. It's still far from a truly practical military warship......"
Civilian and military are two distinct categories. For example, the latest Mu-9 spacecraft can only achieve a maximum acceleration of 0.6 meters per square second. This acceleration is completely enough for civilian use, and for military use, it is nonsense. It's slower than a snail.
Its armor is also extremely thin, less than two centimeters, and can be pierced by a single bullet. The performance in all aspects is sufficient in the civilian range, and it is miserable to measure it by military standards.
However, Chen Yue has always had a clear goal.
In the case that the earth was inexplicably blown up and he was inexplicably fused with the computer, it is foreseeable that there must be too many mysterious existences in the universe that he does not know and do not know. In the future, I will inevitably come into contact with them.
Only powerful warships and thousands of combat ships with fierce firepower are the only bargaining chips for self-protection.
In the future, he must build a combat spaceship.
Compared to his grand goals in the future, the Mu Jiu spaceship at this moment is a little insufficient.
"The road still has to be taken one step at a time."
Chen Yue comforted himself like this: "One day I will be able to build a real battleship." But now, with the Wood Nine spaceship, some things can be started. ”
It's a big deal. For Chen Yue, its significance is no less than that of landing on Ganymede more than two hundred years ago.
Chen Yue planned to transfer his base camp to Europa.
After more than 200 years of continuous development and mining, Europa and Callisto, two small moons of Jupiter, have shown signs of resource depletion.
There was no way, they were too small to support Chen Yue's dreams after all.
And Chen Yue, at this moment, has completed the initial accumulation of technology and mastered a certain amount of industrial strength.
Then, it is inevitable to move to a larger planet and continue to develop at a high speed in a wider world.
Europa is a planet for purpose.
Jupiter has four large moons, known as Galilean moons. All the other satellites are small compared to these four.
Europa, on the other hand, is the smallest of the four large moons. Even so, it has a diameter of 3,100 kilometers, and its mass is more than 50,000 times that of Europa!
One can think of how many mineral deposits, how many resources and energy are stored on it!
Of course, in terms of mass, size and resources alone, the other three Galilean satellites are larger and have more resource reserves. But Europa has an advantage that the other three Galileo moons can't match.
In addition to a large amount of water on it, it has been found that there are many huge methane lakes, and at the same time, it also has an atmosphere, and the main component of the atmosphere is oxygen.
Although this atmosphere is extremely thin, Chen Yue can enrich them by certain means. After enrichment, it is directly mixed with methane and burned, and a steady stream of energy can be obtained.
At that time, you don't have to bother to get energy from the plasma ring.
Chen Yue had already launched many satellites to it, explored its terrain in detail, and measured a lot of its data.
Chen Yue saw that the entire surface of Europa was almost completely covered by a thick layer of ice. At its thickest, the ice can reach hundreds of kilometers. Many extremely important mineral elements are sealed in these ice layers, which can be easily mined by Chen Yue.
Scientists from as early as the Earth era believed that there should be an ocean of liquid water beneath Europa's thick ice. There may even be life there.
Of course, people at the beginning did not have the ability to verify this. However, at this moment, since he had decided to go to Europa to continue his development, of course Chen Yue had to find a way to verify it.
It is very important to study these things to help Chen Yue increase his understanding of the universe itself, the origin of life, and the mode of evolution.
At this moment, a Wood 9 spaceship that served as an advance party left Europa, loaded with scientific research equipment, and flew quickly towards Europa.
