Technological Supremacy Chapter 574: The turbulence at the end of the 7th year of Star Technology
Luo Jia and An Ran went to Weigu Island for inspection, and suddenly felt the ground shaking slightly. Immediately afterwards, the National Seismic Station sent a message, confirming their guess. The space elevator is located in the waters of Papua New Guinea. A magnitude 1 earthquake, the epicenter was fifteen kilometers below sea level.
"It really was an earthquake." An Ran put down her phone and muttered, "Fortunately, the magnitude of the earthquake was not large, and the Great Pacific Fault Zone is further to the west. We are actually quite safe near Sumatra and Kalimantan."
It can be regarded as a kind of self-comfort. Luo Jia didn't say anything, but they both knew very well that the power of nature lies in the fact that no one can predict it.
Assuming you are a powerful top civilization in the universe, can you resist the power of nature?
Too naive.
Even top-level cosmic civilizations will be taken away by sudden cosmic storms or star collapses.
With the busy work, Luo Jia quickly forgot about this small earthquake, and on November 15th, successfully held the topping-out ceremony of Space Station Zero.
Both the national team and the military sent people to participate, mainly to discuss how to allocate resources after the completion of the space elevator and space station. Although Xingchen Technology has always cooperated closely with the national team, some things still need to be settled first. And it's best to set the rules.
On the bright side, Xingchen Technology is the largest private company in the world. However, in terms of actual operation, the national team can use the strategic facilities under the name of Xingchen Technology. When developing new weapons, Xingchen Technology's assistance is also indispensable.
In return, the national team gave Xingchen Technology a lot of resources, not to mention houses and land. If there were no warships around Weigu Island, how could the establishment of the space elevator be so smooth? Sex, I'm afraid that dirty things like accidental injury have already happened.
In the days that followed, Xingchen Technology entered a rare period of calm. Everyone was looking forward to the arrival of the new year and the official launch of the space elevator. Luo Jia finally had time to start deep learning and turned his attention to the stars.
At this time, his two friends in Qunxing, Hei Jian and Lan Yu, have left their respective hometowns. Activities within the county, so when the black sword was still on the road, Lan Yu had already arrived at the territory of the water-shaped civilization.
Plop~
Bafang Zhuiyu, an elite frigate produced by the machine clan, enters the blue ocean with a fierce attitude, and automatically navigates to lead the starship through the deep sea to the city of water-shaped civilization.
The huge shadow paints the cockpit in thick black. It is a big fish swimming above the starship. The big fish wags its tail. He, who has never left the territory, was stunned by the magical underwater world in front of him.
The luminous blue jellyfish dragged their long tentacles to form the defensive curtain wall of the water-shaped civilization. Legend has it that they would attach to the armor of the starship, quickly dissolve and corrode, and destroy the three-titanium alloy deck, and even the expensive gram. The Luo alloy armor was corroded into slag.
Lan Yu's starship approached slowly, these luminous blue jellyfish apparently received some kind of instruction, and scattered in all directions, causing Lan Yu's starship to pass through them, and then they closed the gap that opened, as if The curtains were drawn and lowered.
According to the information Lan Yu learned from his tribe and historical materials, the water-shaped civilization is a relatively high-level existence among the stars. Even if it cannot be ranked with the top-level machinery, quantum, and chaos, at least it can be compared with the energy of the black sword. The civilizations are evenly divided, they master most of the technologies in the stars, but the core part is their ocean technology.
The plant family is like a partial subject. The research of the plant department is unparalleled in the world, and other subjects are extremely mediocre. They still need to find water-shaped civilizations to order starships. The reason why plant civilizations and water-shaped civilizations can cooperate is because they The personalities are relatively gentle, not the violent elements among the stars.
"It's been a long time since I saw your people." Said the representative of the water-shaped civilization who received Lan Yu.
Although living in the ocean, the water-shaped civilization is still a standard human being. Gills have not evolved behind the ears, but their skin is relatively rough due to the intense ultraviolet rays on the beach.
"I don't know either." Lan Yu shrugged and lied with great difficulty: "After all, I have left the clan and become a free citizen."
"Free people?" The receptionist of the water-shaped civilization looked up, and gave Lan Yu a weird look, "This is the first time I have seen a plant-based free people, well, what help do you need?"
Therefore, Lan Yu handed him the list that he had already prepared, mainly to complete the restoration of Bafang Feiyu by borrowing the technology of the water-shaped civilization.
Since the mechanical civilization disappeared from the stars overnight, everyone's mechanical level is actually about the same. It can probably restore 60% of Bafang Feiyu's performance. Now this starship is repaired by Lan Yu alone. nothing.
In addition, when Lan Yu goes back, he still needs to bring some spare parts to maintain the existing facilities in the territory. As for the cost, he can exchange it with the fruit and vegetable technology of the plant family.
"In addition to those on the list, I also want to buy some fish-related technologies." Lan Yu finally said.
This task was actually entrusted to him by Luo Jia. Qinghai Lake, Tarim Lake, there will be countless lakes in the land of China, plus the vast coastline, it would be a pity if they were not used to raise fish.
In 2019, Huaxia imported more than 50,000 tons of salmon from all over the world, together with locally produced rainbow trout, the total consumption has historically exceeded the 100,000 tons mark, which shows the huge demand of the masses for high-quality fish .
In addition, there is another cold knowledge about salmon. Half of the salmon you eat in Japanese food stores is actually domestic rainbow trout. Within the safety range, eating rainbow trout raw is definitely a desperate act.
And even if it is imported salmon, is it safe?
According to the statistics of the General Administration of Customs, since my country released salmon imports, the number one supplier is not Norway, nor Chile, nor Scotland, but a small place that many people have never heard of. called the Faroe Islands.
As early as 2013, the amount of salmon exported from the Faroe Islands to China exceeded 10,000 tons, accounting for as much as 50%. , only ranked sixth, not even ten percent.
So when you see Norwegian salmon in a supermarket or a Japanese grocery store, you should think about what it is that you eat in your stomach.
In short, after Luo Jia learned that Lan Yu would go to the water-shaped civilization, he came up with the idea of fish farming, and asked him to exchange for some fish-related technologies.
…
As the eighth year of Star Technology's establishment approaches, the world once again turned its attention to the big city in geosynchronous orbit.
On November 15th, the No. 0 space station was capped, and the main construction was completed, leaving only some modifications and renovations, as well as interior decoration and other renovation work.
December 25th, Christmas in the West, Space Station Zero suddenly started to operate, giving the whole world a big birthday present. As for the feelings of Westerners after receiving the gift, that is not what Luo Jia cares about that's it.
He only knows that as the zero space station starts to rotate, the gravity quickly forms on the space station, which is very important. If there is not enough gravity, human beings will suffer from muscular dystrophy after living in space for a long time.
The next few days were tense and busy. The ground base worked non-stop and cooperated with the robot engineering team stationed in space to do a lot of tests on the zero space station.
The robots even tried stir-frying in the kitchen. They used an induction cooker to cook sweet and sour pork ribs, shredded pork with green peppers, fried rice with eggs, etc., as well as hot and sour soup and quick-frozen dumplings.
The test results were very successful. In the state of gravity, it is completely possible to cook in space. The only problem is the oily smoke.
Even if the powerful air purification system can remove the smell, the oil will block the filter membrane after a long time. Sure enough, everything has a price. If human beings want to live in space, they must give up cooking, or only cook occasionally during festivals , Weekdays or mainly microwave food.
It’s not all bad news for foodies. Thanks to the powerful technology of plant civilization, an astonishing amount of fruits and vegetables have been planted on Space Station Zero. flowers.
Luo Jia always believes that culture is the ultimate form of all hegemony, so he broadcast the entire test process to the world, and people finally have the opportunity to see that the scene inside the zero space station after completion is like a science fiction movie When the facility appeared in the camera, everyone was shocked.
"I'm going, the crew dormitory is even more spacious than our university dormitory!"
"All are double rooms, and there are small tables and sofas for drinking tea!"
"That was a swimming pool just now?"
"Fifty-meter standard swimming lane, with a diving platform? Is this the rhythm of holding a swimming competition?"
"There are four gyms in the entire space station? A full set of top-level sports equipment!? Isn't this too exaggerated?"
"What do you know? Even if the space station generates gravity through rotation, it is still far below the level of gravity on the earth. People who live in space for a long time must spend enough time exercising to ensure their health."
"The above is right, it doesn't matter for a day or two, but living in space for a long time, maintaining exercise is the most important thing, after all, the body is the capital of the revolution."
As the camera moves, people are excited and seething. Who would have thought that Space Station Zero would be so majestic and even have such luxurious facilities as a swimming pool.
Because of confidentiality reasons, the live broadcast is limited to the living area, but it is conceivable that the laboratory under the zero space station and the shipyard where the starship is assembled must be even more amazing.
Compared to the elation of the Chinese people, preparing to welcome the interstellar era, Christmas and New Year in the West seem dull, and in the Apennine Peninsula, a major event that is destined to affect the entire world happened.
Millions of believers came to pay homage to the Holy See of Luo Jia, but no one expected that when the Pope in full costume appeared at the head of the Vatican, the believers raised unprecedented sharp questions, so The huge contradiction hidden under the iceberg finally broke out in full swing.
History will prove that the seventh year of the establishment of Xingchen Technology is indeed the harvest season for straight men in science and engineering. The space elevator of the universe.
It was also in this year that when the Pope visited the world again, the believers couldn't help asking, why were the Chinese who didn't believe in God the first to walk out of the earth? Why can these Chinese people complete the artificial sun? Extend human lifespan? Suppose these Chinese people find aliens in the universe in the future, are aliens the people of God?
Frozen three feet does not happen in a day. Every scientific progress is a challenge to religion.
Thinking about ~IndoMTL.com~ when they burned Copernicus to death, today they are facing an unprecedented disaster, because this time, it is not a certain person who challenges religion, but the most powerful person in human history civilization.
The Chinese came, with the stubbornness and stubbornness unique to atheists, and posed a huge problem to God!
The Tower of Babel in the Bible does not exist, but the Chinese people built their own Tower of Babel. Soon, the bases of the Chinese people will be established on the moon, on Mars, and on all distant planets. None of this has anything to do with God.
The scene in the Vatican Square on Christmas Eve is destined to remain forever in the history of mankind. The believers raised their slogans and shouted in unison, hoping to know what to do in the future. interstellar.
One day, two days, three days, there are still twelve hours before the launching ceremony of the space elevator will begin. Luo Jia will take the elevator directly to the geosynchronous orbit. When the West is panicking, the Vatican finally uttered its own voice .
"Star Technology controls genetic channels and prolongs human life, because it is guided by God!"
"If there are aliens outside the earth, then they are also the people created by God!"
