Chapter 535 Huge spaceship

Not only the audience in the live broadcast room were discussing the feasibility of transforming Mars into a second earth, but South Korean Won was also thinking about it.

Compared with other terrestrial planets in the solar system, such as Mercury, Venus, and Pluto, Mars is like the half brother of the earth.

It's pretty close to Earth.

First of all, like the earth, Mars is also located in the habitable zone of the solar system.

The second is that the rotation period of the earth is 23.93 hours, and the rotation period of Mars is 24.62 hours, the difference is less than one hour.

In addition, the surface of the earth is mainly composed of various silicate rocks, and the same is true for Mars.

More importantly, the soil and rocks of Mars are quite rich in minerals and various compounds, which are the basic components of life.

In other words, Mars is different from the moon, the soil on Mars can grow vegetables!

In addition, Mars also contains a large amount of water resources, which is something that all kinds of creatures on earth cannot live without.

If its atmospheric environment is similar to that of Earth, Mars is actually suitable for human habitation.

Just like the Mariner Grand Canyon on Mars, and near the equator, the temperature is kept between 22°C and 28°C all year round.

Compared with the perennial heat of more than 22 degrees near the earth's equator, the temperature between 28°C and [-]°C is actually more suitable for human habitation.

Of course, relatively, the high-dimensional region of Mars will be colder than that of the earth, after all, it is farther away from the sun.

But it is not that simple to transform Mars into a second Earth.

After all, the hard conditions of Mars itself cannot meet the requirements.

First of all, the atmosphere of Mars is quite thin, and its atmospheric density is only about one percent of that of Earth.

An atmosphere that is too thin cannot bring about a sufficient greenhouse effect, nor can it lock water resources, air resources and other things.

As some netizens said before, if the ice on Mars melts into water, then in a short period of time, the water will evaporate into water vapor and enter the atmosphere, and then escape.

Of course, part of it is the cauldron of Mars' gravity.

Compared with the gravity of the earth, the gravity of Mars is relatively weak, only about two-fifths of that of the earth.

With this level of gravity, an ordinary person can jump two or three meters at will, and the Olympic record can be broken at will.

But correspondingly, the weak gravity of Mars also means that its magnetic field is weak, and the weaker the magnetic field, the lower its ability to resist the attack of solar wind and other cosmic rays.

This is a big problem for the existence of life.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that some life in the vast universe relies on solar wind and cosmic rays for growth and activities, but life on earth, whether it is human beings, animals or plants, obviously cannot withstand the attack of solar wind and cosmic rays.

In the laboratory, Han Yuan pondered the feasibility and methods of transforming Mars into the next Earth.

Thin air and weaker gravity are two of the biggest problems.

If these two problems are not resolved, the transformation of Mars is nonsense.

However, it is not impossible to solve these two problems. The key point is the state of Mars.

Life is aging. A person will die after a hundred years from birth.

And the planet too.

Not only stars like the sun will run out of fuel and die, but even planets will age and die.

It's just that there are many factors that determine the state of a planet, such as the life of the parent star, which is a more critical point.

Just like the solar system, if the sun reaches its old age, the earth will be swallowed up.

But this is the lifespan in a broad sense. Won is not looking at this. What he is looking at is the state of the planet for breeding life or being suitable for life.

One of the more important points is the core of the planet. The activity of the core determines the state of the planet to a large extent.

Just like the earth, the earth has a core composed of iron, nickel and other metal elements, which are still quite active today.

It is precisely because of an active core that the earth has a strong magnetic field and gravity, which can resist external solar wind and cosmic rays and protect the creatures on the ground.

At the same time, the active core also brings geological activities, whether it is earthquakes or volcanic eruptions, these geological activities are enough to bring a material from the ground to the surface, thereby maintaining the ecological balance of the earth.

Especially in some seabeds, because of the multiplication of various marine plants and algae, the nutrients of the seabed soil will be consumed and accumulated over the years, which will lead to geological changes on the seabed.

Once the geology changes, the intensity will change accordingly. The lava on the seabed will erupt, and the volcanic ash and other things carried will supplement the nutrition for the seabed, reshape the geology, and start a new round of life evolution.

From a long-term perspective, geological activity is important for the evolution of life.

More importantly, the state of the earth's core is actually related to the planet's gravity and magnetic field to a certain extent.

The Korean won is now considering this as well.

He didn't know the condition of the core of Mars, and he didn't know whether Mars was a temporarily frozen planet or a planet that was aging.

If it's the latter, then it loses the meaning of transformation. If it's the former, then naturally Won won't give up and will try to find a way.

After thinking about it, Han Yuan called Xiaoqi.

"Xiaoqi, is there any free space shuttle in the base now?"

He thinks that some instruments and equipment can be sent to Mars to collect detailed data on Mars before making a decision, especially the situation of the Martian core, which is the key point.

If the core of Mars is in good condition, he might be able to find a way to try to terraform Mars.

After all, a space station, an alien base, no matter how big or luxurious it is, it can’t compare to a planet as a whole, right?

Moreover, Mars' weak magnetic field and weak atmosphere are not impossible to solve in his eyes, but it takes a lot of effort.

After all, this is a planet, even if its volume is only 15.00% of the Earth.

"No, the current five space shuttles have their own missions, what's the matter? Master."

Xiaoqi's feedback was sent back the moment Han Yuan's voice fell. It is responsible for all space missions and is very clear about the situation of the space shuttle in the base.

"I need to send some testing equipment to Mars to check the status of Mars. Is there a way?" Han Yuan asked with a frown.

"How much equipment? What about weight and volume?"

Xiao Qi's inquiry sounded in the laboratory, Han Yuan calculated a little, and reported the information to Xiao Qi.

"There are five sets of equipment in total, with a total weight of about ten tons. The volume is a bit larger, almost close to [-] cubic meters, and the largest single machine is [-] cubic meters. The others are about the same size."

"Well, if that's the case, it can still be done."

Xiao Qi calculated and quickly passed the information back.

"There is a Venus recovery rover that the space shuttle will go to the day after tomorrow. You can modify the route, and then take off in advance, first go to Mars to send the equipment there and then go to Venus."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

Han Yuan nodded and didn't ask any more.

For him, as long as the goal can be achieved, he doesn't care much about how Xiao Qi does in the process.

After arranging the collection of Martian data and information to Xiao Qi, Han Yuan stood up and stretched himself.

The detection of lunar soil and lunar rocks has come to an end, and the basic tasks of the outer space exploration mission branch chain mission have been completed, so he can relax for the time being.

"Go and see the construction of the spaceship."

Han Yuan thought about it and decided to go to the dock.

The last time he went to the shipyard was when the spaceship was first being built, but at that time the shipyard had just been built, and the various materials for assembling the spaceship had just begun to be delivered, so there was nothing to see at all.

Now more than a year has passed, and more than half of the construction of the spacecraft has been completed, so it is time to go and have a look.

Coming out of the laboratory, Han Yuan found the little electric donkey that he hadn't ridden for a long time, stepped on it, and rushed towards the dock where the spaceship was built.

The dock is actually quite far from the central area of ​​the base, more than 20 kilometers away.

Fortunately, the roads here are wide and open, and with the little eDonkey he has modified that can reach a speed of nearly [-] yards, he can get there in about ten minutes.

If it is farther away, the Korean won will probably have to drive an aircraft to go there.

Compared with Won, who can receive reports from Xiao Qi every day, and can understand the construction progress of the spaceship and real-time pictures, the audience in the live broadcast room has little understanding of the spaceship under construction. After hearing that Won is going to the dock Suddenly, he became excited.

[Hurry up, take us to see what the spaceship you built looks like. 】

[If the anchor didn't say it, I would have forgotten that there is still a spaceship under construction. 】

[I miss the old days, no matter what I do, I can broadcast it live, now?You can’t see the spacecraft being built, you can’t see the rocket launch, you can’t even see the satellite going up into the sky, and you can’t see the probe vehicle even though it has wandered on alien planets N times. 】

[The family is big and the business is big, there is no way. In the past, everything was rubbed by the host's hands, but now it is all automatic and mechanized. 】

[I remember the spaceship built by the anchor, the engine used seems to be an anti-gravity engine, right?It would be great if this technology was broadcast live. 】

[How long will it take for this spaceship to be built? I really want to go to outer space to see what the outer planets look like. 】

[Upstairs, I recommend a game for you, No Man’s Sky, but you need to use a virtual helmet. Using a virtual helmet can allow you to experience almost completely different alien scenery, and you can even communicate with aliens. 】

[You said the spaceship built by the anchor, how big is it? 】

[Should there be a diameter of 100 meters?After all, the space shuttle is only 60 meters away. 】

[100 meters, don't you underestimate this anchor, I wouldn't be surprised to add a zero. 】

[Adding a zero makes it 1000 meters, the aircraft carrier is not that big, okay?The largest aircraft carrier is less than 400 meters, you want to let such a big guy fly?dream. 】

In the live broadcast room, the audience continued to discuss. Even experts from various countries were curious about what the spacecraft built by Korean won would look like and how big it was.

The construction of this spacecraft has almost never appeared in the live broadcast room from beginning to end, and they have not seen any of the technologies they want to learn, including the most important magnetic field anti-gravity engine.

Along the road extending in all directions, Han Yuan came all the way to the outside of the dock where the spacecraft was built.

This is an industrial park with a fairly large area, which can hardly be seen at a glance.

The most eye-catching thing is a huge black factory in the central area of ​​the industrial park.

The audience in the live broadcast room stared dumbfounded at the square factory. From the first perspective of Won, there was no end in sight, only a tall wall.

[Hiss~, is this a factory? 】

[Visual length and width are at least a few kilometers. 】

[The altitude is not low. Looking at it from this angle, it may be hundreds of meters away. 】

[Hiss~, such a big factory, the anchor really can't build a spaceship with a diameter of more than a kilometer in it, right? 】

[It is possible, there is a great possibility! 】

[Tsk tsk, this efficiency is really terrible. I remember the anchor said that the building of spaceships was an order issued last year, and it will take at most a year and a half, a year and a half, to build such a large factory and change it to reality 】

[In reality, I am afraid that no factory will be built for five or ten years. 】

[Don't forget that the spaceship is still being repaired in this factory, it's even more exaggerated. 】

[Tens of thousands of industrial robots are repaired 24 hours a day, it is still no problem (dog head)]

[Quick, go in and see what the spaceship looks like inside, I'm looking forward to it even more. 】

The huge factory at first glance shocked the audience in the live broadcast room. It's not that they haven't seen the factory before, but they have never seen a factory like a mountain that can't be seen at a glance.

Not to mention the audience, even Han Yuan himself was a little shocked. Even though it was not his first time to come, when he really stood in front of such a factory, he would only feel his own insignificance, and of course, there was also a trace of pride.

After all, such a factory was built by him.

Seeing some urgings on the virtual screen, Han Yuan smiled and rode a small electric donkey directly into the factory.

The layout of the factory is U-shaped, and there is no wall on one side, which is convenient for transporting various large parts and pulling them out after the subsequent construction of the spacecraft is completed.

With this kind of caliber, let alone riding a small electric donkey, it is no problem to drive a plane in.

As soon as they entered the factory, the audience in the live broadcast room was shocked again.

The spaceship that has not yet been built is showing its face like a daughter stepping out of the courtyard for the first time.

The audience's first reaction is only one, that is big!

It's so big that you can't see the side at a glance, and it's so big that people suspect that something is wrong with the eyes.

Although the audience was teasing whether the spaceship could exceed the order of 1000 meters, when such a spaceship appeared in front of them, everyone was speechless for a while.

Even if this spaceship does not exceed a kilometer.

If you can’t imagine this concept, there is a very good way, that is to find a first-tier city, find its iconic building, and then stand at the corner of the building and look up.

That's pretty much it.
