Everyone: Are mechanics weak? I wake up and rectify the natural disaster

"...Anyway, that's it, meow."

"Because the Dyson Cloud requires a continuous supply of solar sails, we had to spend some additional production resources to expand the fifteen solar sail production lines,"

Akashi imitated Su Wen and shrugged.

Thank God, the main star of the central galaxy is not a giant star.

It is a very ordinary and ordinary gv-type main sequence star, which is the so-called yellow dwarf star.

Similar to the sun.

The quality, brightness, and luminosity are all about the same.

Although it is larger than the sun in the solar system, the size is limited.

But despite this, if you want to build a Dyson cloud, the solar sail production line must be expanded even more.

As for how much...

"There is no upper limit. This kind of thing naturally cannot reach the upper limit."

"It can only be said that once there is surplus material supply and sufficient production capacity, we can appropriately expand a dozen or dozens of lines."

Akashi shook his head regretfully.

She also longs for the Empire to have a complete Dyson Sphere.

After all, who doesn't love a masterpiece... or a spectacle?

But even the 'incomplete version' of Dyson Sphere, Dyson Cloud, cannot achieve 100% coverage.

This kind of large-scale project that relies solely on stacking materials really exceeds the current resource supply limit of the empire.

and...

This is not the end.

The Dyson Cloud is the prototype of the Dyson Sphere, or it is what the Dyson Sphere looked like before a solid frame was installed to form a permanent structure.

It requires a frame made of super-stretch and super-high-temperature-resistant materials to achieve sustainable use.

The main function of the frame is to provide strength support and outline the main structure.

and use magnetic rails to pull nearby solar sails.

The solar sail is attached to the frame, unfolds and fills it, forming an incomplete Dyson sphere coverage area.

Side by side, slowly filling up the area around the entire star that can absorb light...

This is the earliest and most primitive Dyson sphere construction method.

There may be some differences in the specific process.

For example, you can build an orbital launcher on the planet's surface or in a space station and use it to eject solar sails;

It can also be simpler and cruder, just use a large transport ship to fill the solar sail, drive it to the orbit of the star and scatter it directly.

But the process is different, but the idea is the same.

Countless solar sails are used to completely fill the outside of the star.

...Of course, it doesn't have to be completely filled.

Some gaps also need to be left to maintain illumination within the central galaxy.

In short, the general idea is this.

The advantage of such a construction plan is that the progress is controllable.

Since launching solar sails to stars, we have been able to receive the electricity produced by the latter.

With a steady supply of energy, a considerable part of the cost can be offset and a lot of the value of the material input can be recovered.

Naturally, it is currently the most suitable for Su Wen.

And it does not conflict with the standard construction plan of Fijian civilization and Suzheng civilization of 'building a complete frame → covering a quarter of the surface → covering half of the surface → completely covering'.

Since the Dyson Cloud can be filled into the frame as a covering, it will not affect subsequent changes to the construction plan.

If you want to play according to the gameplay of the super civilized bosses, you can just change it.

Yes.

After careful consideration, Su Wen felt that Akashi's plan was indeed impeccable.

It can be said that it has reached the limit within the resource output and industrial production capacity it can provide.

"Okay, let's follow this plan."

"Is there anything else I need to make up my mind about?"

Su Wen rubbed the cat's head and asked one more question subconsciously.

"No more, meow."

"If I have to talk about it, it's all about trivial matters..."

"For example?"

"For example, regarding core drilling:

Because solar sail production lines require large amounts of super-stretchable materials, their upstream raw material requirements squeeze out core drilling capacity.

I have now changed my priority from drilling in the earth's core to mining organic crystals to supply the carbon nano-super-stretchable materials needed for solar sails...

Therefore, in the next period of time, the production of metal minerals on the home planet will decrease. "

When Su Wen heard this, his expression did not change.

It's really a small thing.

If it were in the past, the change in priorities for core drilling might have been a big deal.

But now...

In up to ten hours, the asteroid belt mining station will be ready for use.

By the end of tomorrow at the latest, the first batch of titanium, iron, molybdenum, chromium, silver and other minerals will be shipped to the home planet.

In this case, it would be irrelevant if core drilling is diverted to mining organic crystals.

Anyway, the metal mineral reserves on Reach are not comparable to its organic crystal reserves.

"What about other aspects? Are there any?

Hmm...what's going on with the construction progress of the zero-gravity tachyon capture screen? "

Su Wen thought for a while and finally recalled the incident.

"Everything goes well. Construction of the base site has started. It is located at the zero interface of the Zhiyuan Star Port and is connected through a one-kilometer-long extended cabin section."

Akashi shook his tail, looking very happy.

Compared to the 'Anti-Particle Cage', the 'Zero-Gravity Tachyon Capture Screen' requires much less work.

Although they are all giant structures designed for the purpose of capturing certain special particles.

But the former is a giant with one foot on the dividing line between planetary structures and galactic structures.

The latter is just a secondary megastructure smaller than an ordinary planetary megastructure.

If you have to be strict,

By the standards of advanced interstellar civilizations, this is not a spectacle.

At most it's an electronics factory.

and...

Different from antiparticle cage.

Antiparticle cages are quite dangerous, but tachyon screens are not.

Therefore, it can be built near the home star, or even placed directly next to the port of Reach.

Convenient transportation and logistics.

"With the supply of human resources and the mineral support of dozens of asteroid belt mining stations that are about to be put into operation, even if the 'Anti-Particle Cage' and the 'Dyson Cloud' are started at the same time, the 'Tachyon Screen' Progress will not be affected."

"Of course, the specific completion time is really not that close."

Akashi said with his face raised.

Su Wen nodded.

This is true.

The secondary giant structure is still a giant structure after all.

Why don't you spend the next month or so?

It doesn't matter, as long as it goes well.

..

Learned about the progress of these industrial development projects.

And confirmed that no abnormality occurred.

Su Wen walked out of the building of the Engineering Department with great satisfaction.

Prepare to leave the research area and end today’s visit.

Say something.

This kind of in-person visit method is also quite good.

At least Su Wen felt happy.

Chat with the heads of each department in person about recent developments.

Take a look at developments on the ground.

It is quite helpful to increase the comprehensive understanding of the dynamic situation in various fields.

No wonder before I traveled back in time, there were so many minds in the world, and they liked to visit everywhere when they had nothing to do.

Even if you are someone who doesn’t understand technology at all,

I only know who should take the initiative to pour the wine first when meeting someone at the wine table, and who should hold the cup three inches lower than others.

In this kind of environment, there are a group of professionals around to explain,

I guess I can also pretend to understand and make some high-pitched remarks about "what were we doing back then".

Not to mention Su Wen who can always check the system technology tree and conduct observation and inspection.

really.

In this world, it is the happiest thing to be a hands-off shopkeeper!

..

...However, sometimes, it always backfires.

Su Wen was blocked by someone before he left the park.

"I said, Commander, where are you going in a hurry?"

The entrance to the Sociology Department building.

An elegant girl wearing a moon-white silk dress is leaning on a Roman column in the corridor,

He looked at Su Wen with a look of resentment.

"Why, you can go to the physics department, you can go to the engineering department, but you can't go to my sociology department?"

"Huh? Ahaha... Oh, isn't this my dear Miss Zhenhai?"

Su Wenshan stopped with a smile.

Then he took a few steps forward, pretending to be very attentive,

"What kind of wind is this that blows you out?"

"A heartless and heartless man!"

Zhenhai understood and reached out to hold Su Wen's arm.

She rolled her eyes at him charmingly.

“Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings.

I'm not thinking that you are probably all busy, so I don't have the nerve to bother you..."

"No matter how busy you are, it's not as busy as that little cat in the Engineering Department. We are all Qingshui Yamen anyway..."

The two of them were chatting away from time to time.

Zhenhai took Su Wen on his arm and walked into the building of the Department of Sociology.

"Come on, I have something good for you to see."

"What good thing? Could it be..."

Su Wen's face turned solemn:

Is this a test for cadres?

hehe...

I'm not that easy to deal with.

If you have the guts, try a pair of white silk stockings.

"What are you thinking, I can still eat you in broad daylight?

Day by day, there is no way to do anything right..."

Zhenhai snorted and resisted the urge to reach out and pinch his waist.

"Have you forgotten? The field of biology is also under the jurisdiction of our Sociology Department."

"Oh? So, doesn't it mean..."

"Yes, it's the one you thought of:"

"The next generation of genetic enhancement technology is already in sight."
