Although the children are still a little younger now, they can still attend a small kindergarten class.
Regarding the issue of children's education, experts on Earth have also discussed it. The final conclusion is that the education of the children here on Sedna, the Human Base No. 1, cannot completely replicate the experience on Earth.
The education of children on earth is actually quite loose, and there are too many other things attached to education. Of course, there is nothing inappropriate in this. After all, the human world on earth is rich in environmental materials and has a stable society, and the problem of survival has long been solved.
There are only a few human beings here on Sedna, and the most important thing is to continue the survival of civilization. This determines that children must quickly master the basic skills of maintaining the operation of the base and the basic skills of living here. If possible, it is best to master some proactive innovation capabilities.
The purpose of education is very clear. Here, education is just education, without anything else attached, such as ranking, future, status, etc.
Based on this, the courses designed by the experts are quite compact. Basically, before reaching adulthood at the age of 18, one has to complete the courses that can only be learned in human universities in the earth era.
Recalling his experience of going to school on Earth, Zhao Changxing thought to himself: "Your tragic era is about to begin." Looking at these cute and smart children with red lips and white teeth, Zhao Changxing thought to himself.
For the children's first class, Zhao Changxing made some preparations. On this day, he changed out of all the clothes with a space wandering style, such as silver-white multifunctional cabin clothes, portable computers, etc., and instead put on clothes with a strong earthly casual style, T-shirts, and jeans.
In the classroom, the children were still making noise. Perhaps they sensed something was wrong with the atmosphere today. After Zhao Changxing walked in, they gradually became quiet. With the help of the robot aunt, they each returned to their seats and looked at Zhao Changxing with curious eyes.
"Today, I am here to teach you the first lesson. We all have a common name, human beings. We come from the earth, and we have a written history of up to five thousand years..."
Facing a group of children in a small kindergarten class, Zhao Changxing certainly couldn't talk too deeply. His purpose today is just to let the children have an impression of these two terms, human beings and the earth.
This is the inheritance of civilization, as well as the inheritance of history and culture. With these inheritances, no matter where humans wander in the universe in the future, they will have a sense of belonging and know where their "roots" are. This is extremely important in shaping the future shape of society.
However, as long as there is still one person who remembers these things and can have a sense of belonging to these inheritances, human civilization will not be considered dead.
The class was over quickly, and the children quickly ran out of patience, so they started playing carefree again. And Zhao Changxing has decided that no matter how big the human population develops in the future, the first lesson for all children must start with understanding their own identity and their hometown.
Subsequent courses will be completed by the robot teacher under the control of Xiaoxi. Zhao Changxing was able to free himself and once again devoted his energy and time to the construction of Humanity Base No. 1.
The most important task at this stage is the construction of subsistence areas. The official life support area of Humanity Base No. 1 is different from the life support area in the first phase of the project. It cannot be compromised at all, it must be perfect, after all, people in the future are counting on it to live.
Its area is also very large, covering more than 200 square meters. The core components are naturally the micro fusion reactor and generator, followed by the water purification circulation system, air purification circulation system and temperature control system, as well as the power grid system.
These four systems are like blood vessels, extending to every place in the entire Humanity Base No. 1, maintaining the normal operation of the entire base. And their source of power is the survival zone. From this point of view, it is no exaggeration to regard the life support area as the heart of the base.
The construction of the life support area means that a large number of pipes and cables need to be laid, and the structure is extremely complex. If one place is wrong, it may mean the collapse of the entire system. Fortunately, Earth experts have already completed this most complex and arduous project on Zhao Changxing's behalf and produced detailed drawings. Zhao Changxing doesn't even need to know what a certain pipeline is for, why it needs to be laid in that direction, why an interface needs to be reserved here, why the flow here needs to be designed to be so high, and why three monitoring modules need to be installed here. , he doesn't need to pay attention to it at all, he only needs to install it strictly according to the drawings.
Because the only frameworks that have been completed at this moment are the soilless cultivation workshop and the livestock breeding workshop, the pipes and cables that need to be laid in the other areas are not needed for the time being, as long as the interfaces are left in advance. But even so, the work took more time than he imagined.
It took him more than five months to complete the work. And this is just laying the pipes and cables outside the workshop and making a general interface. The more complicated laying inside has not yet begun.
Fortunately, the preliminary work was only being carried out, and the first phase of the project had not yet been dismantled. The only micro fusion reactor was still supporting the two workshops to continuously produce various foods, so he did not encounter a food crisis.
Otherwise, if the project has been delayed for such a long time, he may have no choice but to use the two starch reactors again and rely on starch to make a living.
After all, the actual construction environment is too complex, and it is impossible to predict in advance what will be encountered during the process. Even on earth, no matter how perfect the plan is, in the end there will be countless things that exceed the budget and exceed the construction deadline.
Fortunately, these things are finally finished now.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Changxing started laying various internal pipes and cables in the soilless cultivation workshop and livestock breeding workshop non-stop, and completed it more than three months later.
At this time, it is time to officially stop the operation of the first phase of the project and transplant the micro fusion reactor to the life-support area of Humanity Base No. 1.
In the life support area of the first phase project, Zhao Changxing shut down the micro fusion reactor with a solemn expression. After a while, the generator stopped running, and all rooms, lighting systems, water and air circulation systems, temperature control systems, etc. of the entire first phase project were shut down. Work was stopped at the same time, and all the buildings in the entire first phase of the project immediately became dark.
The temperature begins to drop rapidly, and within 20 hours at most, the temperature inside the room will be the same as outside.
It is an extremely cold temperature where even gases can freeze solid.
Zhao Changxing wore a spacesuit and began to use various tools to disassemble the big thing bit by bit, and carefully protected it to prevent damage during the transfer process.
If it breaks somewhere, you're in big trouble.
The Hongqi space vehicle has been temporarily converted into a trailer for this transfer and is waiting outside.
Under the extremely low gravity of Sedna, Zhao Changxing was like a strong man, easily lifting the reactor components weighing hundreds of kilograms and fixing them on the trailer. After going back and forth several times, I drove the space vehicle and transported them to the new location.
After carefully assembling it, Zhao Changxing solemnly pressed the start button after self-inspection.
Accompanied by a tremor - there should have been a sound, but the life-support zone was in a vacuum state, so the sound could not be transmitted - a prompt indicating that the startup was successful appeared on the display screen.
Under the energy provided by the micro fusion reactor, the large generator began to operate. The lights in the life support area turned on immediately. With electricity, the rest of the air circulation system, water circulation system, temperature control system, etc. also begin to operate.
Zhao Changxing left here and walked to the soilless cultivation workshop. At this moment, this huge, empty room was filled with light.
After looking at the instrument readings, Zhao Changxing took off his spacesuit directly. The slightly cold air rushed towards his face and surrounded him instantly.
The temperature is still a little low now, but it will rise soon.
"Finally I don't have to wear this thing to work anymore."
Zhao Changxing sighed with emotion.
In the days that followed, as he was busy day after day, the piles of messy building materials gradually turned into partitions, rows of shelves, lights, monitors, and more in his hands. Or various complex and precise machinery.
It took nearly half a year to complete the soybean planting area of the soilless cultivation workshop with an area of 600 square meters.
Different from the first phase of the project, the soilless cultivation workshop here is highly automated. From sowing to harvesting, as well as intermediate cultivation, nutrient solution supply and automatic adjustment, almost no human intervention is required throughout the process. The only things that need to be done manually are daily monitoring, repairs after occasional accidents, and the manipulation and adjustment of some data.
At this moment, in the soybean planting workshop, there are rows of fluorescent lamps on the roof, and rows of neatly arranged shelves on the floor. The different shelves are all connected by nutrient solution delivery pipes. Dozens of robots are moving between the shelves. Shuttling back and forth, the preliminary matrix adjustment work was carried out under Xiao Xi's control. Behind them, other robots sowed seeds.
Three months later, the first soybeans are ready for harvest.
After taking a satisfied look at the fruits of his labor, Zhao Changxing closed the closed door of the soybean workshop and came to the rice workshop.
There are still some tasks that need to be completed here. It is estimated that the rice workshop with an area of 300 square meters and an annual output of three tons of rice will be put into operation in more than ten days.
Now, almost five years have passed since Zhao Changxing came to Sedna. The children are now four years old.
