Technology Bigshot Chapter 587: : Want to grow vegetables on Mars? (two
……
Worrying about money, and MS, since Ren Hong said hello to Liu Yuliang, the rhetoric that the Mars space elevator will take 10,000 years is not a joke.
The space elevator immediately became another new level project within MS and even the entire matrix technology and was officially approved.
This level project has even attracted the attention of Zhongnanhai, and the government's attitude is also very clear: if you want money, the rest is basically no problem, and the green light is given to those who can satisfy it.
This project not only involves the top strategic reserve material Amethyst Crystal, but once the Mars Space Elevator is completed, it will completely establish an unparalleled bridgehead for the Republic on Mars, which is of strategic significance for the future colonization of Mars for a century far-reaching.
Earth's sister star is now a wasteland where birds don't shit, and there are indigenous creatures such as snakes and lizards, but in the future, with the development of science and technology and the progress of civilization, the Republic has a space elevator to transform Mars. ,deep meaning.
As Ren Hong said, this is a century-old strategic project.
The project was approved, and the investment budget was 10 trillion yuan (RMB). This astronomical figure was written in black and white in the filing. The current Matrix Technology must not be able to come up with so much money. Even if such a figure is The world's largest financial master will also appear to be very cash-strapped.
Fortunately, the project investment will be after 10 years, and the money is also invested in batches. A budget of 5000 million is allocated at a time, and the budget of 10 trillion is about 20 cycles and only about 20 years. Such a level A major project cannot be accomplished overnight, it must be done step by step.
However, it is obviously impossible to meet future transportation needs by just a "interstellar transport cruise ship". Most of the materials needed to build a space elevator are to be transported from Earth to Mars. For the space base, the construction of the second long-distance interstellar transport vehicle "Class Mars Rover" has been started.
"Tiangong Ring Orbit Star Port" is also taking advantage of the trend to move towards a real space star port. The expansion of the ring orbit star port is imperative. At present, it has a volume of 77oo tons. ", a class "interstellar transport cruise" with a load capacity that can exceed 50,000 tons. The "Tiangong Ring Star Port" will also expand the first space dock, and the volume of the Ring Star Port will also exceed the 10,000-ton level.
The "Class Mars Rover" will be assembled on the Xinggang dock. The longest Mars rover will reach 27oo meters, and the thousand sets of lasers will reach 11,000 sets. The light sail will also pass 8o kilometers, costing 15oo billion. (RMB).
After the completion of this class space transport cruise ship, it will serve for up to 1o1 years. It will build the flagship transport construction materials in the space elevator, and then will undertake the transport of amethyst crystal, and even go to asteroids to mine and transport minerals in the future. useful.
The joint effect is terrifying. The space elevator is not to say that it can be built. Once a project is established, all major departments must follow up in a coordinated manner, and the MS space base must also be expanded accordingly. Unable to meet the sharply soaring demand in the future.
It was decided to build two new arc-shaped shooting towers for the space base, as well as 18 "Arc Eagle series" space transport aircraft. This series of corresponding subsidiary plans are all gold swallowing beasts, and all the revenue of Matrix Technology Almost all of it was spent in the field of space exploration, but even so, since the establishment of the space elevator project, Matrix Technology, which never said that it was short of money, also felt the moment when money was not enough.
If you say this, the whole world will be shocked.
But this is the truth. Space exploration is such a beast that swallows gold. It is a great pleasure to smash tens of billions into it and get a little splash.
However, all this investment is definitely worth it. Amethyst crystal is the best return. Leveraging the era of wireless energy and Chinese standards is the most abundant benefit. Space overlord is an irresistible temptation, which may not be seen in the short term. To the manifestation of the benefits, and once it comes, it will shock the whole world.
Recently, especially this year, it has been the most exciting year for domestic aerospace companies, with Matrix Technology madly pouring money into the field of space exploration. Therefore, domestic aerospace companies have also ushered in unprecedented opportunities, and the crazy investment of Matrix Technology is also unprecedented in stimulating companies in this field.
Matrix technology is always a supermodel with a single investment of 100 billion (RMB) level. It is impossible for MS to complete it by one person. Under the coordination of the National Aviation Administration of China, the order of tens of billions of dollars has been sold by major domestic aerospace companies. Enterprises gain.
You must know that in the past, the overseas market in the field of space exploration was basically occupied by the Western world. It was quite difficult for domestic aerospace companies to expand overseas business. How much is it? And in order to compete with established Western companies such as Laura Space Systems, they have to give up their profits if they want to bid.
There really isn't much money to be made.
In fact, thanks to the virtual world project of Matrix Technology several years ago, the creation of virtual networks, a large number of satellite orders and satellite launch services, more than half of the space hardware facilities constructed by virtual networks have been handed over to domestic aviation companies. Aerospace companies, from that time on, Air China has really lived a good life for a while. It is no exaggeration to say that the order of Matrix Technology made them a full meal, and they also used the help of This batch of income ushered in a good exhibition.
With the official establishment of China Matrix ms, domestic aerospace companies have officially ushered in a new spring. In just a few years, many private companies have even risen, and the entire field has ushered in Blowout exhibition.
It is no exaggeration to say that the strong demand for matrix technology has strongly driven the development of the country's aerospace field in recent years, and since the "twin plan", it has been even more so.
In the past, if any developing country needed satellite launch services, these companies would rush to bid and compete with Western companies.
Now, as long as you hold the big thick legs of ms, you won't have to worry about no orders. The business has soared, and a large amount of income has been injected into the research and development of more advanced technologies. The favorable cycle continues. In recent years, China's technological innovation in the aerospace field has alarmed Western countries.
It can be said that the Chinese matrix ms has stimulated the development of the entire country's aerospace industry, and has forcibly propped up a blue sky in the aerospace industry. With strong demand, as long as you have the technology, you don't have to worry about no business.
The blowout exhibition in the aerospace field is only one aspect. The nearly 4 trillion (RMB) budget of the "Twin Plan" directly stimulates one field, and the scope of the impact is several different fields, hundreds of different industries, ranging from basic material needs to high-tech needs.
4 trillion yuan directly stimulates a high-end field, but indirectly drives the entire country's industry. These are all exhausted under the internal perfect industrial system, and the fertilizer does not flow into the fields of outsiders, nothing more.
Seeing that others are living so well, foreign companies also want to take a share, but they can't get in.
The impact of such a desperate space development business of Matrix Technology is not only limited to the country, but also has a huge impact around the world. Foreign space companies that have not benefited from Matrix Technology have begun to exaggerate the "big space era". The importance of Western countries is also unwilling to see themselves falling behind, and naturally they have also increased their investment in the field of space exploration.
The development of the human space career in later generations will always be inseparable from matrix technology and ms, which shows how great its influence is.
However, the exhibition was not all smooth sailing. Matrix Technology was playing like a madman, and it also attracted a lot of negative effects. The most typical remark was "waiting for the people in the west to eat grass", and they could bear trillions of dollars. astronomical price into it.
Fortunately, it is Matrix Technology that pays the money, and these remarks will not affect the implementation of the strategic plan.
Three months later, just as Mars Express is about to enter Earth, Mars is also undergoing dramatic changes.
With the help of ms, the American outpost base was transferred to the low-lying Deka Walker, the abandoned outpost base in the Pezos area, and everything that could be recovered was taken away, not even a single part was put away However, there is no way, on this planet, the real local tyrants are friends next door, and the old beauty can save as much as possible.
There is no such thing as a banquet in the world. With the 27 tons of weapons brought, the Americans obtained 10 tons of weapons supplies for the defense needs of the Deka Walker outpost base.
The "Firefly Space Station" has also been separated from the American "Noah", each operating in the corresponding orbit.
Next, everyone is basically a gamer.
Old Olympus, the wind ridge.
Three months ago, the outpost base was officially established in the wind ridge. A large-scale base has appeared here in a few months. The MS's outpost base is more than the Americans. Deckard Walker's base was five times bigger.
The most beautiful scenery of the hurricane is the "Terminator" meteorite that wiped out Mount Olympus. From space, it looks like purple stars dotted here. Over the years, this huge crystal has After absorbing countless solar energy, it has gradually become brighter from the dark purple colorless, although it still appears dark purple.
Today is the first stage of official construction of the tunnel excavation.
Ren Hong and Commander Li Xingfeng have both arrived at the outpost base. At the moment, they are standing on a small high ground overlooking the Galewind Base. Two m-series earth burrowing machines are digging a tunnel at the designated entrance. The goal is to dig a long Eight kilometers of underground tunnels until the crystal meteorite is reached.
"If the 'Observer 5' in the sky hadn't come to blow our heads from time to time, we would be able to mine ore now." Ren Hong glanced at the skyline of Mars and said helplessly.
However, Li Xingfeng said as he circled around: "Tsk, you said that all the places where these eyes pass are wasteland. When I look at such a large area of land, I want to grow vegetables."
As soon as Ren Hong was amused, Li Xingfeng smiled and said, "The tradition of our Chinese people is that they are left unseen, and when they see it, they always want to plant something."
"Don't talk about the commander, your idea is insane." Ren Honghuan looked around for a week and said, "The location of Gaofengkan is unique, and it's really possible to build a few sheds and grow a few acres of vegetable fields. It's really not a problem to come out."
"How many acres? This is too exaggerated." Li Xingfeng said: "We are here to mine, not to open up wasteland on Mars. We don't do business at a loss."
Ren Hong is aware of the matter of building a space elevator on Mars, and the investment is huge. In the future, more people will come to work on Mars, and then think about it later. This is to lay a solid foundation for the future colonization of Mars.
"It is really necessary to say hello to the headquarters." Ren Hong said: "Look, there will definitely be more people coming in the future. We have been consuming supplies from the earth. It is very important to get some supplies from the top. Even if it is to prevent accidents, we have a piece of land here. At least we can solve our urgent needs in a sudden situation. We must know that half of Mars is now ours, and sooner or later we will open up wasteland, why not now start?"
The idea of farming on Mars has been officially approved by Ren Hong. He estimated and calculated that the excrement of all members on Mars or the space station is an excellent waste, and there is moisture in the Martian soil, said There is also liquid water under the Uncertain Volcano. In addition, it is technically possible to obtain liquid water through chemical means. It is completely feasible to create a small ecology with internal circulation, and make the best use of it.
Life on Mars is very boring, and he has also experienced it in the past three months. This kind of food can also find something new to do in his spare time. Growing vegetables is only one aspect. For the parties involved, it is a great cause to expand the territory.
Mining is perfect! Ren Hong nodded silently in his heart, already thinking that the "Mars Express" is about to leave, and it is still on Earth. They have to bring some materials for building a shed. It is too extravagant to use the beam inflatable space capsule to farm. Well, it would be better to bring supplies directly from the earth.
"I'll leave first, Commander, I'll go get in touch with President Ren. There's a lot of fun in this kind of place." Ren Hong said with a smile. In fact, he was the President Ren in his mouth.
"Hey..." Li Xingfeng looked at "Professor Wang" who walked towards the base happily.
