Chapter 606 Discussion
"I think everyone can understand the virtual solar system pattern on the virtual screen. The entire solar system is so huge, but the area where our human civilization operates is so small, so we have to transform other planets in the solar system so that It can become a planet that our human civilization can live on.

Of course, for now, after all, the technology of our human civilization is limited, and we can only transform the planets that are close to our human civilization. I don’t think I need to say this. Everyone knows which planets, that is, the satellite of our earth, the moon, and two other nearby planets, Mars and Venus.

However, among the three closest planets to the earth, the moon is the closest to the earth. After all, the moon is a satellite of the earth. If we have enough technology, it is the most ideal to transform the moon, but unfortunately, due to the moon Insufficient natural conditions, or our human civilization's current technology is insufficient, so we simply cannot transform the moon to make it a habitable planet.

Moreover, the size and mass of the moon are too small. Even if we complete the transformation of the moon and make it a habitable planet, the size of the moon cannot bear too many people. Therefore, according to our discussion, we think that the moon It is not suitable for transformation into a habitable planet, but only suitable for our human federal space command center or the base camp of our human federal space force.

Apart from the moon, there are only Mars and Venus left that can be transformed by our human civilization. Let me talk about Mars first.

Compared with the Earth, the volume of Mars is still relatively large. The radius is only about 53% of the Earth, the volume is only about 15% of the Earth, the mass is only 11% of the Earth, and the surface gravity of Mars is only about 38% of the Earth. However, Mars is different from the moon. The moon has no atmosphere at all, while Mars has a thin atmosphere, but more than 95% of the atmosphere is carbon dioxide, and the density of the Martian atmosphere is only 1% of that of the earth.

In addition, the speed of the new rotation is about every 63 hours, and the transit period is 687 days. At the same time, Mars, like the earth, also has four distinct seasons. The lowest temperature on Mars is below minus 100 degrees, and the highest temperature is around 22 degrees. Probably around minus 63 degrees.

At the same time, according to the exploration of Mars by our human civilization in the past few years, it has been discovered that oxides such as iron oxide are everywhere on Mars. With the existing technology of our human civilization, the oxygen in these oxides can be restored. Its mineral resources are also very rich, not only including various metal minerals that we commonly use, but also rich in various rare metals.”

Soon Zhang Yi finished talking about human civilization and all the data obtained from Mars in the past few years. He put down the data in his hand, then picked up another one and continued: "Let me now talk about the distance from our earth. The nearest other planet, which is also one of the protagonists of our discussion, is Venus.

Venus is one of the eight planets in the entire solar system. According to the distance of the solar system, the distance from the sun is from near to far. If you arrange it in order, Venus is the second planet in the solar system. The distance from the sun is about 2 astronomical units. In ancient times , this planet is also known as Venus, Taibai or Taibai Venus, and it is also called Venus or Aphrodite. The revolution period of Venus is about 0.75 days.

Venus is a teardrop star, its mass is similar to that of the earth, so many people call Venus the sister star of the earth, but Venus is also the only star in the solar system without a magnetic field, its orbit is close to circular, The eccentricity is very small, only 0.006811.

The reason why Venus is called the sister planet of the earth is that if you look at the structure of the two planets, they are indeed very similar. The radius of Venus is about 670 kilometers, but it is about 73 kilometers smaller than the earth. At the same time, the careful volume is It is 300 times that of the earth, and its mass is about 0.88/4 of that of the earth, which is slightly smaller than the earth. From these aspects, it can be seen that the composition and size of Venus and the earth are very similar.

But in fact, this is not the case. The environment on Venus is very different from the planet Earth where our current human civilization lives. The surface temperature of Venus is very high, about 465 to 485 degrees, and there is no liquid in the economy. At the same time, the atmospheric pressure on Venus is very high and dense, about 90 times that of the earth, which means it is equivalent to the pressure in the 900-meter deep ocean on the earth.

In addition to these, the rotation direction of Venus is also opposite to that of most planets in the solar system, from east to west. Therefore, if people watch the sunset and sunrise on Venus, they will see the situation of rising in the east and setting in the west. At the same time, Venus The rotation period of Venus is very long, about 243 days, that is to say, Venus makes a day longer than he works a week."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Yi also put down the information in his hand, and then continued to speak to these people in the conference room: "I have already finished the information about Venus and Mars, and at the same time, everyone can Check these materials on the computer at your own conference table. Now, please think about it carefully, which planet should we transform?
After all, with our current human technology and strength, we can only transform one planet at most within a hundred years, and we are only allowed to succeed and not fail. It will be impossible to survive on other planets except the earth, and the pace of our human civilization going into space will also be limited.Well, I have finished my words, please think carefully, and then post for discussion. After finishing speaking, Zhang Yi sat down and looked at these people in the conference room.

After listening to Zhang Yi's words, everyone in the meeting room lowered their heads, thinking carefully for themselves, or discussing with the people next to them. With the current scientific and technological strength of human civilization, which planet should be transformed with a higher success rate? A little bigger, after all, what Zhang Yi just said is very clear. With the current capabilities of human beings, human civilization can only be allowed to make one attempt. If it fails once, it will not be possible for a long time to transform other planets. , so whether it is officials or experts from the Earth Federation, they are very cautious.

After about two hours, a white-haired old man finally stood up and said to everyone at the meeting: "Hello everyone, then I will first mention my opinion, based on the information I checked and combined with Judging from the current science and technology of human civilization, in fact, whether it is to transform Mars or Venus, it is a very big challenge for our entire human civilization. After all, our human civilization has never transformed a planet. , making it a habitable planet."
