Chapter 813 Biological Resources
However, after obtaining the resource map of the ancient civilization on the meteorite star sea, the exploration process of precious mineral resources, which is the most difficult and time-consuming and resource-consuming for the earth civilization, can be simplified to the maximum.
After all, millions of years may be enough for a civilization to turn over and destroy for several rounds, but for mineral resources, it is only a moment's time, and those cherished minerals that once existed will not change much at all, and the information of mineral resources is far from outdated on this time scale.
With the results of the exploration of mineral resources in ancient civilizations, the current earth civilization only needs to carry out secondary exploration and confirmation of some mineral resources that are urgently needed, and once the information is confirmed to be true, it can start mining immediately.
Even the earth's civilization has now begun to have the qualifications to pick and choose, and can selectively exploit those cherished mineral deposits.
The resources that are too deeply buried are not mined, the reserves are too small, and the precious resource mines that are too sinister should be put aside, and the best and most fertile and easiest to exploit the precious resource mines should be mined and excavated first, so as to improve the reserves of some cutting-edge mineral resources of the earth's civilization as soon as possible to meet the development needs of the earth's civilization in all aspects.
The reserves of various rare resources in the meteorite star sea are indeed quite amazing, some rare mineral resources that were difficult to find in the previous earth civilization in every possible pursuit, but now on the resource map obtained in the steel battle star, they can be called everywhere, all kinds of rare resources are a large area of existence, many of them even clearly mark the approximate resource reserves, the corresponding storage ratio of various precious resources in the minerals, the more suitable mining methods and so on.
The value of this information can be called priceless, that is, the cosmic-level civilization can only be obtained relatively easily after lighting up various high-end detection technologies, and the current earth civilization must spend a great price to obtain this detailed information, and now a package of relevant information is directly available, and I don't know how much effort has been saved by the earth civilization.
At the same time, it can also be seen how powerful and prosperous the ancient civilization of the meteorite star sea was back then, and the resource reserves of such marginal star fields have been clearly felt, and they have long been carrying out resource protection and reserves in a foreseeable manner, but now these are cheaper than the earth civilization.
Although these resources are generally stored in some extremely harsh areas in the eyes of most native interstellar civilizations, and have no value for exploitation and utilization, they are also very different from the eyes of earth civilizations.
Although the storage sites of these resources are generally in some extreme environments, the difference between lava planets with an average surface of several hundred degrees Celsius and unconventional areas with severe gravity anomalies is still extremely obvious, the former Earth civilization still has the ability to mine and excavate, and the latter is still an inaccessible forbidden area even for today's Earth civilization.
After obtaining these corresponding mineral resource maps, the future of the earth's civilization is not only that mineral resources are no longer scarce, and that the development needs of scientific research and production in all aspects are no longer as simple, but also that various resources can be exploited in a predictable manner, and the consumption of these important strategic resources can be controlled in advance, which is undoubtedly self-evident for the long-term development of the earth's civilization.
It can be said that the value of this resource map obtained in Iron Battlestar is almost immeasurable for Earth civilization.
Because it stores not only mineral resource information, but also a large amount of biological resource information, the value of which is incalculable.
It is important to know that it is not only tangible mineral resources that are extremely difficult to explore, but also extremely valuable.
In fact, in many cases, the rational use of some biological resources, relatively speaking, is even more difficult, once some research results are obtained, many times the effect is even greater than the simple mineral resources, directly can create a new field of scientific research, and make a series of breakthroughs, which is a very normal thing.
After all, in many cases, the existence of living beings themselves, compared with large-scale industrial production, is more complex and unpredictable, they themselves are a kind of cosmic miracle, as long as the value and utilization of these biological resources can be successfully discovered, many biological resources can be called priceless.
Whether it is some biological materials extracted from some organisms, or the performance transformation of some substances in the biological metabolism process, there is great value, and in many cases, it is difficult for even simple scientific and technological forces to do it directly.
For example, the unique molecular structure of some macromolecular complex biomaterials found in some organisms can sometimes play an irreplaceable role in many scientific fields, but the structure of these biomaterials themselves is extremely complex, and the formation mechanism is difficult to explore in a short period of time, and it is even difficult to simply replicate with molecular printing instruments, let alone large-scale industrial production.
Moreover, even if some biomaterials can be directly printed with cutting-edge molecular stereoscopic printing technology, their production costs and production efficiency are completely uneconomical, and if you want to obtain these valuable biological materials, you have to obtain them through the cultivation and utilization of these organisms.
In addition, some valuable biological resources, although they cannot extract biological materials with special value, can also produce a lot of by-products in the process of metabolism, and even play some unique roles.
In the field of biometallurgy, it is often a very common method to improve the basic properties of some raw materials through the action of microorganisms and some special life forms.
Even in many cases, this unique role of biological resources is a unique technical route, and it is common for some civilizations to not even be able to cross certain bottlenecks and thresholds of development without the role of certain specific biological populations.
Once the investment in the field of biology is injected, there are often gains beyond the level of civilization, so that civilization can achieve leapfrog development in some fields This is a very common thing, it can be said that the research and utilization of many biological resources existing in the natural ecological chain is an area that the vast majority of scientific and technological civilizations will not miss.
This is true of the ancient cosmic civilization of the Meteorite Star Sea, and the same is true of the Earth civilization.
It's just that compared with the short-lived outsiders of the earth civilization, the understanding and application of many natural biological resources in the meteorite star sea by the ancient civilization of the meteorite star sea is naturally something that the earth civilization is difficult to achieve.
The excavation of biological resources is an incomparably meticulous, painstaking, and more serendipitous thing. Even if the earth civilization has inherited many research methods and research models in the field of biological sciences of the Canglan civilization, it is better able to explore the utilization value of some biological resources and expand more utilization fields than the ancient civilization of meteorite star sea in some fields.
However, after all, the time for the existence of the earth civilization in this starry sky is too short, only a few thousand years of history, which makes it difficult for the earth civilization to have a deep understanding of the many biological resources in this starry sky.
Even if the earth civilization uses its own scientific research strength, coupled with interstellar trade with many interstellar civilizations, it has obtained a large number of biological specimens and biological strains, and has carried out in-depth research and development and utilization of many strange creatures with special characteristics, but the earth civilization's understanding of the entire meteorite star sea biological resources is still too shallow after all.
Every year, many new biological resources and biological populations are greatly expanding the biological information database collected by the earth's civilization, but even if the earth's civilization has more biological research teams, it is obviously too late to process these huge amounts of biological resource information one by one.
For the study of biological resources, this itself is a long-term and persistent project, and if you want to deeply explore the intrinsic value of living things, it will take an incomparably long time to slowly study it, and it is obviously unrealistic for the earth civilization to quickly interpret those valuable biological resources by itself.
And can not effectively use many local resources, which itself is also an important reason why the earth's civilization is now slowly falling into the bottleneck of development, biological resources seem inconspicuous, but in fact this basic resources penetrate into the entire scientific and technological edifice of scientific and technological civilization, is an important foundation for scientific and technological achievements, and the use of biological resources in countless subdivisions plays a significant and indispensable value.
Many times it is not too important in a corner, but the accumulation of countless bits and pieces can make a qualitative breakthrough in a civilization, and what the earth civilization is missing now is this link, if you want to make up for this lesson, the earth civilization originally needed a long time to consume, but the biological resource information base left by the ancient civilization on the meteorite star sea undoubtedly provided a new and powerful impetus for the development of the earth civilization.
The long-term immersion and development of the ancient civilization on the Meteorite Star Sea in the vast star field of the Meteorite Star Sea has always been beyond the reach of the Earth civilization.
Therefore, correspondingly, the ancient civilization should also understand the biological resources in this star field far better than the earth civilization, which can be seen from the utilization of some microbial resources in many material fields by the ancient civilization.
But in fact, these biological applications in the production process of various materials are only the tip of the iceberg of the utilization of meteorite star sea biological resources by ancient civilizations.
These cutting-edge materials support the scientific and technological skeleton of the ancient civilization, but in addition to these pillars, the ancient civilization also has countless small biological resources scientific research achievements, which together build the scientific and technological flesh and fur of the ancient civilization, and together form the general outline of the ancient civilization's cosmic-level powerful civilization.
In this resource map obtained in the Iron Battle Star, it simply records the various valuable biological resources found by ancient civilizations on many planets, as well as the special features of these biological resources that have been discovered, their corresponding scientific research achievements, application fields, and so on!
Although this is still only a small part of the ancient civilization in the field of biological resources research, but after obtaining this information, the earth civilization is tantamount to having a guiding light, which points out to the earth civilization which is really the direction that can make a major breakthrough, which is really valuable, and even the legacy of the ancient civilization has directly pointed out the applicable application fields of these biological resources, which is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for the development of the earth civilization, so that the development of the earth civilization can be more targeted。
Of course, this is not to say that in addition to the valuable biological resources that Iron Battlestar has already marked, the many other indigenous biological resources are worthless, and this is certainly not the case.
Not to mention whether the data of this biological information database included by Iron Battlestar is complete enough, whether it is really enough to represent the true level of ancient civilizations in the field of biological resources, even if this is the true level of ancient civilizations, but this does not mean that other biological resources are really completely worthless.
Other biological resources and biological populations may be more valuable and have more potential, and have a more indispensable role and value in more high-end fields, but it is obvious that these values are still too hidden, and they still need to be slowly accumulated and explored by the earth's civilization in the future in a longer period of time.
It is impossible for the earth's civilization to completely ignore the research and exploration of other biological resources after obtaining this biological resource information guide of the ancient civilization.
But it is clear that the secrets hidden by other biological resources are significantly more difficult to reveal without specific guidance.
It is impossible for the earth civilization not to go when it clearly has a bright road, and it is too wasteful to not pick up the achievements that are everywhere, and it will delay the development of the earth civilization too much.
What the earth's civilization needs to do is to conduct in-depth research and exploration of the biological resources highlighted by these ancient civilizations, and strive to make some breakthroughs and progress in the first step, so as to make up for the various shortcomings of the earth's civilization.
After the dividends of these biological resources are slowly developed, the earth civilization will carry out more in-depth research and exploration in a wider range of biological resources, and only in this way will the valuable resource information obtained by the earth civilization not be wasted.
