Xueba's life simulator

Chapter 282 Mars Immigration (49 59)

This "Star Sea Project" is that after China has controllable nuclear fusion technology, it can research and manufacture reactors based on the principle of nuclear fusion reactions as the power core, so that it can create spacecraft with longer endurance.

For example, before controllable nuclear fusion was developed, the nuclear energy used by people was nuclear fission.

Nowadays, nuclear reactors and nuclear power plants that are generally controllable by humans use the principle of nuclear fission. It heats uranium atoms to a very high temperature, and then the uranium atoms will split and release neutrons at the same time. The neutrons hit other uranium atoms and make other uranium atoms Splitting, an ongoing chain reaction.

Just like the reactors in nuclear submarines and nuclear power plants, their principle is nuclear fission reaction.

However, although nuclear fission can produce huge energy, the energy it produces is far less than that of nuclear fusion.

Moreover, the nuclear fuel reserves of the fission reactor are extremely limited, not only will it produce powerful radiation, which will harm the human body, but it will also produce waste that will last for thousands of years. This kind of nuclear waste is very difficult to dispose of.

In contrast, nuclear fusion produces much less radiation, and the fuel for nuclear fusion can be said to be inexhaustible.

This is why after the success of the technology of controllable nuclear fusion last year, the higher authorities began to invest a lot of money in controllable nuclear fusion and implemented many related supporting policies.

After having a reactor made on the principle of nuclear fusion, people don't talk about crossing the galaxy, which is also unrealistic.

If technologies such as curvature drive and the utilization of antimatter have not been developed, it is impossible to cross the galaxy, even if the controllable nuclear fusion technology is truly mature in the future.

The controllable hydrogen nuclear fusion on the earth, even at a temperature of 1 million degrees Celsius, is the process of continuously fusing hydrogen nuclei into heavier helium nuclei, but only 6% of the mass is converted into energy, even if only [-] [-] parts, which is also [-] times higher than the mass-energy conversion rate of nuclear fission.

That is to say, for one kilogram of hydrogen, seven grams of mass will be converted into energy during this process, and according to the mass-energy equation, 6.3*10^14J of energy will be generated during this mass-energy conversion process.

The power of antimatter is far greater than this. It is the largest and most perfect conversion of matter mass into energy known so far. Its mass-energy conversion rate has reached [-]%. That is to say, a kilogram of matter can completely convert it converted into energy.

However, human beings still have a long way to go before the curvature drive technology and antimatter power technology that only appeared in science fiction novels. Even if he has always had a life simulator, Zhou Ming is not sure if he can see such a thing in his life. technology from science fiction to reality.

Because many things have not been realized before, there is a lot of uncertainty in it. Even if Zhou Ming has always had a life simulator, there are still two difficulties for him to witness the realization of curvature drive technology and antimatter technology.

One difficulty is, will humans be able to realize such a technology in the future?
The second difficulty is whether future technology can greatly extend human life, or even directly achieve immortality?
If before Zhou Ming passed away in this world, human technology could not greatly prolong human life span or slow down aging, then even if human beings could develop curvature drive technology and antimatter power technology in the future, Zhou Ming might not be able to see it.

But despite this, after the controllable nuclear fusion technology matures in the future, at least if humans want to go to the moon, or other planets in the solar system that are relatively close to the earth, such as Mars, Venus, and Jupiter, their efficiency will definitely be higher than it is now. many times higher.

This also provided a great boost for the subsequent Mars exploration research program.

At this meeting, among the alien planet exploration and research plans formulated in the "Xinghai Project", Mars is the one that has attracted the most attention, and the other ones are Jupiter and Venus.

As for Saturn, which is more distant, and Mercury, which is the closest to the sun, of course some probes will be launched in the future, but they are not yet the main discussion point of this "Star Sea Project" meeting.

After finishing this year's simulation experience, Zhou Ming felt a little emotional in his heart, but now there is not much time for him to feel emotional. After all, he is using a life simulator for simulation. Wait until the simulation is completely over.

After the surrounding environment changed into a study room, the life simulator panel in front of Zhou Ming soon displayed the simulated text experience of his 39-year-old year.

[39 years old, what you have been worrying about this year has finally happened. Some countries and companies have violated international regulations and produced artificial intelligence simulation robots with human emotions. 】

After seeing the specific content of the line of simulated text in front of him, Zhou Ming also secretly thought that it was not good, what should come is still coming.

However, what makes Zhou Ming feel a little strange is that when he was 39 years old, it was only 11 in the simulated world, and it was only [-] years since the advent of artificial intelligence with human emotions and autonomous consciousness in [-]. time of year.

Zhou Ming felt that it would be impossible for him to divulge the technology that enables artificial intelligence to have human emotions and autonomous consciousness.

Especially the technology that allows artificial intelligence to have human emotions. From the previous simulation, Zhou Ming, who is using the life simulator, can also see that he in the simulated world has not used it on artificial intelligence since then.

Moreover, Zhou Ming can also be sure that in the 11 years of development time, as long as the relevant technology is not leaked, it is certainly impossible for other countries and organizations to break through the technical barrier and research it so quickly.

"Could it be possible that someone leaked the relevant confidential technology?" With this question in mind, the environment around Zhou Ming has completely changed, and this time it is still a conference room.

However, this meeting room is very different from the meeting room in the previous scene.

The first is the size of the conference room and the arrangement of tables and chairs in the conference room. This conference room is several times larger than the conference room in the previous scene experienced by Zhou Ming, who is using the life simulator to simulate, and the tables in this conference room The arrangement of chairs is more like a lecture hall.

Apart from the difference in the surrounding environment, the biggest difference is the people who participated in this meeting.

In the last experience scene, almost all the people who participated in the meeting had the faces of Chinese people, but the faces of the people in the meeting room this time are different. One can see the faces of these people and know that the meeting held here is an international one. Meeting.

The reason for this difference is indeed because this meeting is not a meeting of China, but a meeting of the United Nations.

The purpose of this meeting convened by the United Nations is to discuss the matter of a country secretly sheltering a certain company for illegally producing artificial intelligence simulation robots with human emotions.

After listening for a while, as the surrounding environment changes, the simulation experience of the year is over.

Since Zhou Ming owned the life simulator and turned on the third-person perspective function, he has conducted many simulations. In these simulated worlds, he has seen many meetings, but he has never seen anything like this. Such a useless meeting.

Although this meeting is of no use to companies that illegally produce artificial intelligence simulation robots with human emotions, at least it let Zhou Ming, who uses a life simulator for simulation, know some information, so it can't be regarded as fruitless, I can only say The harvest is a little small.

As the saying goes, there will be a market where there is demand. Due to technical and legal reasons, many companies have not produced such artificial intelligence simulation robots with human emotions, so a large number of customers with special needs in this area have accumulated on the market. .

The company that violated the regulations made a lot of money through this, how could it stop.

And because this company is overseas, not in Huaguo, Huaguo can only find out which country it comes from if it wants to check, but it is impossible to completely stop its production.

Because to a certain extent, the organization can be said to be sheltered by their domestic government, but this kind of shelter is not on the surface, but secretly.

Therefore, in the end, the only thing Huaguo can do is to strictly prohibit the flow of artificial intelligence simulation robots with human emotions into the country, and prevent domestic companies from producing illegally.

……

[46 years old, in this year, the Huaguo Mars Project officially and successfully transitioned from exploration to scientific research. 】

In the simulations experienced after the age of 39, there was no mention of artificial intelligence robots with human emotions, so even if Zhou Ming wanted to know more information, he had no way of knowing.

Soon, the time in the simulated world came to the year when Zhou Ming was 46 years old.

In the simulated text experience that appeared on the panel of the life simulator in front of Zhou Ming at this time, the "Huaguo Mars Project has formally and successfully transitioned from exploration to scientific research" refers to the fact that in this year, Huaguo will Start building and launching many more base experiment cabins on Mars than before, and transport more relevant researchers to do scientific research.

The "Mars Project" is a part of Huaguo's "Xinghai Project". Now, Huaguo's "Xinghai Project" has formulated corresponding exploration and research plans for each of the eight planets in the solar system.

However, since Mars is the planet most likely to be transformed into a planet suitable for human habitation among the eight planets in the solar system, people naturally pay more attention to it.

When the environment around Zhou Ming changed from his study room to another scene completely different from his study room, the scenery that caught Zhou Ming's eyes this time shocked even the well-informed Zhou Ming. .

Because Zhou Ming, who was using the life simulator at this time, discovered that he was not on the earth, but in a space station in outer space.

Meanwhile, Zhou Ming in the simulated world was standing in front of a glass wall in the space station, observing the planet that the satellite was circling.

What this space station surrounds is not the blue earth, but the red Mars. Zhou Ming in the simulated world is now above Mars, revolving around Mars at an extremely fast speed.

"Academician Zhou, we are going to land on Mars in a few days, how do you feel now?" Just as Zhou Ming in the simulated world was looking at the red planet, a man who seemed to be about the same age as Zhou Ming in the simulated world The old man came to Zhou Ming's side and started talking to Zhou Ming in the simulated world.

"Although I have studied a lot of soil brought back from Mars before, this is the first time I have landed on Mars, so I am naturally a little excited." Zhou Ming in the simulated world also said to this person.

Soon, the two chatted, and it was obvious from a glance that the two were old acquaintances with a good relationship.

However, Zhou Ming, who is using the life simulator, has no impression of this person who seems to be about the same age as himself in the simulated world, about 40 years old, and who is also very familiar with himself in the simulated world. .

Zhou Ming in the simulated world is now 46 years old, and the time in the simulated world has reached 20, and in [-], this middle-aged man who looks about the same age as Zhou Ming is no more than It's normal that Zhou Ming, who is only in his [-]s and who is using a life simulator, doesn't know him.

However, Zhou Ming doesn't need to know who this is, he just needs to listen carefully to their conversation.

From the conversation between himself in the simulated world and this person, Zhou Ming, who was using the life simulator, also learned more about the Mars project.

It turned out that starting from this year, Huaguo in the simulated world began to send a group of researchers to the Mars base every year.

This group of researchers is not just those who have graduated, but also a large number of graduate students conducting related research.

All graduate students who conduct research related to Mars will come directly to Mars to do scientific research.

Before that, although there were also scientific researchers who were sent to Mars, they were all relatively senior and had been trained for several years.

……

[At the age of 58, the Mars Project officially changed from scientific research to immigration, and the first batch of immigration plans were launched. 】

"Huo, so fast?"

Zhou Ming was also surprised when he saw his 58-year-old text simulation experience.

After all, when Zhou Ming was 58 years old, it was only 30 in the simulated world, and only [-] years had passed since [-].

Zhou Ming did not believe that the environment on Mars could be transformed into a planet suitable for human habitation in such a short period of time.

If the environment cannot be completely transformed, the immigrants can only live in the Mars base cabin.

Therefore, Zhou Ming, who is using the life simulator, is also very curious about the fact that the first batch of immigration plans started in the simulated world when he was 58 years old.

"The hydroponics module on Mars has been completely completed, and it will not be possible to restore the atmosphere on Mars to the same thickness as that on Earth, so this time..."

What is going on in the simulated world is a meeting discussion about the first Mars colonization plan.
