This control range may be large or small. It is equivalent to a sphere with a radius of 750,000 kilometers. As long as it is within the scope of this sphere, humanoid bionic robots and other remote control equipment can be well controlled remotely.

That is a sphere with a diameter of 1.5 million kilometers. You know, the distance between the moon and the earth is 380,000 kilometers, so imagine how huge this space is.

But this also needs to be compared with something. Theoretically, the closest distance between the Earth and Mars is 55 million kilometers, and the farthest distance is more than 400 million kilometers.

The distance from the Sun to Neptune is more than 4.4 billion kilometers. Seventy-five million kilometers is nothing compared to these.

Zong Ning Qiaoqiao nodded and said: "There is nothing we can do about it, unless we can make the transmission speed of information exceed the speed of light. Obviously, according to the current basic theories of physics, this is impossible." According to the existing Basic theory of physics states that the speed of any material carrying information cannot exceed the speed of light.

To put it bluntly, under current physics theory, there is no super-light speed in the universe. Su Zhe said: "It is true that the current theory cannot support the transmission speed of information exceeding the speed of light, but the current basic physics theory is not perfect. Maybe we will be able to come up with a new physics theory when, and it can support the transmission speed of super-light speed. Existence." This issue has been discussed before.

Not only did he talk to several people like Fan Xiaoming, but he also organized large-scale seminars. At the seminar, there was support for all kinds of speculation.

However, what is certain is that the current basic physics theory is not perfect, so the existence of super-light speed cannot be 100% denied.

More people believe that there are more new physics theories waiting to be discovered. The existence of faster than light speeds has just not been discovered.

Mao Zhenguo nodded and said: "Yes, it's hard to say whether information can be transmitted faster than the speed of light, but I do think that information can be transmitted faster than the speed of light. After all, the universe is too big and the speed of light is too slow. If the speed of light is not surpassed, it will not be possible." It's in line with common sense." The universe is so vast, and he thinks it's ridiculous if some parts of the universe cannot exceed the speed of light.

"Our Jiutian Research Center is conducting research on super-light speed. To be precise, it is research on instantaneous information transmission technology. There is no progress at present." Su Zhe explained,

"Regardless of whether the development of instantaneous information transmission technology can be realized in the end, we will definitely gain a lot during the research process." Now, no one can say with certainty that instantaneous information transmission technology can be developed.

But it is meaningful in the process of research. Mao Zhenguo said with some excitement: "I think if we can develop instantaneous information transmission technology, coupled with brain-computer integration technology, it will be invincible." Brain-computer integration technology directly connects the human brain and the Internet, but because of information transmission As a matter of time, the distance between the remotely controlled humanoid robot and the controller cannot be too large.

According to the current situation, the controller can only effectively control humanoid bionic robots and related equipment within a range of 750,000 kilometers.

Such a small space is too small compared to the entire universe. In his view, the most ideal thing is instant information transmission technology.

In this way, people can remotely control humanoid bionic robots from the earth to explore and develop the entire universe.

The three of them chatted for a while and then ended the discussion. Su Zhe and Ning Qiaoqiao, led by Mao Zhenguo, visited the deep space laboratory under construction.

The Deep Space Laboratory was originally prepared to study extreme microwave radiation spectrometers, but now HKUST is directly involved.

Its scale has also increased a lot. Mao Zhenguo pointed to a huge simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine and said: "This engine is a big thing. The power it provides can reach 5,000 tons. The entire laboratory needs to be equipped with ten such engines. Look over there. It’s a sixth-generation nuclear fission reactor being built.” The current deep space laboratory has completely changed.

In the beginning, the Deep Space Laboratory was slightly larger than the International Space Station, but now, the Deep Space Laboratory has become a giant.

After many modifications, the final version was three kilometers long, one kilometer wide and one hundred meters high.

According to the school’s plan, the Deep Space Laboratory will be built into HKUST’s experimental base in outer space.

It is still the kind of experimental base that can fly throughout the solar system. Speaking of which, after Lingzhou University of Science and Technology decided to build a high-energy space city and the University of Science and Technology decided to build a deep space laboratory, domestic universities and research institutes all have their own ideas.

If universities and research institutes have the capability, they will build their own outer space laboratories.

Those that are less powerful can be jointly constructed by universities and research institutes. Right now, everyone is gearing up.

Zeng said that these are outer space laboratories, but they are actually the stations of universities and research institutes in space, or branch campuses.

Su Zhe visited carefully.

"Yes, looking at the progress, we will be able to complete the construction of the laboratory soon." This deep space laboratory is more like a small mobile space city than a laboratory.

This big guy is three kilometers long, one kilometer wide, and one hundred meters high! It’s hard for anyone to believe that it’s a laboratory, but it’s called a laboratory.

Of course, this deep space laboratory cannot compete with the high-energy space city built under the leadership of the school. After all, the diameter of the high-energy space city is one thousand kilometers. It is a super giant that cannot be compared with the deep space laboratory.

Zong Ning Qiaoqiao explained: "It will take some time before the main part can be completed quickly, but the relevant laboratory equipment is still being prepared. It is estimated that it will take three months to fully complete, and then you can go to the departure point." The earth has three million kilometers of space.”

"I understand." Su Zhe nodded.

"Three months is enough to catch up with the successful development of brain computers. However, considering the distance of the deep space detector, it is not feasible for personnel to stay on the earth for remote control. Personnel need to go there." Ning Qiaoqiao nodded and said: "Deep Space The permanent staff of the laboratory can reach 10,000 people. As for the brain computer, I am looking forward to it. By the way, I have applied to join the Mars landing in two months. After the Mars landing, I will move to the deep space laboratory. Research on the extreme difference microwave radiation spectrometer.”

"That's right! Then we can go to Mars together." Su Zhe said,

"The number of people who have landed on Mars this time has reached 30,000. I believe the landing scene must be very spectacular." Thirty thousand people have landed on Mars. This will be a landmark event for humans to enter space.

Many parties are already busy preparing for this landing on Mars. Materials and supporting facilities are being prepared.

The physical aspect is also a big challenge. For example, the daily consumption of 30,000 people. According to the plan, 10,000 of the 30,000 people will return to Earth within a month, and 20,000 will stay on Mars for three months.

With so many people and so many days, the consumption is huge. And these consumptions must be transported from the earth in advance.

This is only the materials consumed by personnel, as well as materials for building a permanent base on Mars and materials for building a Mars spaceport.

In addition to materials, there is also the construction of supporting facilities. Landing on Mars this time is different from landing on the moon. The first thing to do is to deploy network systems and energy systems on Mars.

The former is quite simple to deploy, and the network system layout has been completed. The latter is the energy system.

In fact, it is to cover the light pillar project, and wait for the completion of the construction of the space port and permanent base to receive the energy provided by the light pillar project.

This is being done, for example, we saw solar energy collection stations and light energy transmission stations being built before, including ones covering Mars.

"What? You can complete the development of the brain computer in two months, is it so fast?" Mao Zhenguo asked in surprise.

Zhen Suzhe nodded and said: "Hey, didn't I say that before? Let me emphasize again that we will be able to complete the development of brain-computer integration technology very soon. As for the brain-computer, we strive to complete the development before landing on Mars, so that we can complete the development before landing on Mars. It will be much more convenient to use a brain computer during the Mars process."

"Yes! Yes! That's great." Mao Zhenguo said excitedly,

"I also participated in this landing on Mars. It seems that this landing on Mars will be very interesting, especially with the help of brain computers." These landings on Mars are unprecedented.

Thirty thousand people landed on Mars. It's a little scary to be honest. Compared to landing on the moon, everyone is more interested in landing on Mars.

You know, for a long time, everyone regarded Mars as the hope for the future of mankind, and immigration to Mars was the goal to pursue.

In his opinion, the most suitable place for human habitation is the earth. But humans cannot stay on the earth forever, and it is inevitable for humans to leave the earth.

Beyond the earth, humans must create an environment suitable for human survival. For example, building space cities, transforming other planets, and other initiatives to create an environment suitable for human survival.

As for an environment like the one on Earth, he felt there was no other place in the universe. He feels that in the universe, human beings are unique, and the earth is also unique. It is impossible to find a second earth in the universe.

Just this time, 30,000 people landed on Mars. After completion, the full development of Mars will follow. In fact, after the relevant data of Mars are gradually improved, the comprehensive development of Mars has already begun.

Regarding the transformation of Mars that was often mentioned before, such as nuclear explosion of Mars, these large-scale transformations were directly rejected by most people from the beginning.

Let’s not talk about whether large-scale transformation can be successful. It will definitely take a long time, and no one can afford to wait for such a long time.

What everyone supports is building a space city in space and building a city on Mars similar to that on the moon.

Everyone prefers to use Mars as a short-term resource place. As more and more detectors are deployed on Mars, more and more Mars data are detected.

There is a lot of water at the north and south poles of Mars and underground, and Mars is rich in mineral resources.

The general opinion is to use Mars as a springboard for the development of the entire solar system. Also, a large amount of resources have been discovered in the asteroid belt, among which the three asteroids with a diameter of more than 400 kilometers are extremely rich in mineral resources.

Among them, a large number of heavy metal mines, such as those rare heavy metals, were found on Pallas. In the past six months, research on rare metals has blossomed.

The performance of related metal materials has been greatly improved after adding rare metals. Coupled with the arrival of the space age, the demand for related metal materials has increased significantly.

The demand for high-performance materials containing rare metals has increased significantly. Naturally, the demand for rare metals has increased significantly.

There is also Ceres, which has a diameter of 950 kilometers. A large area of ​​high-content open-pit iron ore was discovered on the surface of Ceres.

These are much-needed resources. Ning Qiaoqiao nodded and said, "Yes, once the brain machine is developed, it will be very easy for us to land on Mars."

"We will work hard to let everyone use brain computers before landing on Mars." Su Zhe said seriously.

He said it was very easy, but the actual operation was still very difficult. There are still two months left before we can land on Mars.

They need to complete the development of brain-computer integration technology, and they also need to complete the development of brain-computer technology. The former is not that difficult. Just find all the intersection points of the human brain, or the required information, step by step.

With just a few more days of hard work, we can complete the research and development of brain-computer integration technology. The latter is the development of brain-computer, there are some difficulties, but they can be overcome.

To put it bluntly, the difficulty of brain computers is actually miniaturization. Except for these two, the others are supporting brain-computer systems, or upgrades of other devices.

The most typical ones are the upgrade of humanoid bionic robots and the upgrade of engineering machinery and engineering mechas. In contrast, upgrading construction machinery and engineering mechas is much less difficult. As long as the software is upgraded, it is basically the same. Only a very small part of the hardware needs to be upgraded.

But humanoid bionic robots are different. Both software and hardware need to be completely upgraded. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a redesign.

The upgraded humanoid bionic robot is not much different from the human body, especially when it is controlled by brain-computer.

Humanoid robots have the same feelings that the human body has. For 30,000 people to land on Mars, at least 30,000 brains and computers will be needed, including spares, and 40,000 will be prepared for everything.

As for the humanoid bionic robot, 30,000 is definitely not enough. A conservative estimate would require 100,000. To complete this within two months, a lot of work needs to be done, but there are also many people involved.

In terms of brain-computer integration technology, brain-computer, upgrades of humanoid bionic robots, upgrades of engineering machinery and engineering mechas, etc., more than 30 million people have participated.

This is still a conservative number.

"Let's work hard together." Mao Zhenguo smiled,

"I get excited when I think of a brain computer. As long as you wear a brain computer like a headband, you can connect your brain to the Internet. Not only can you enter the virtual universe, but you can also remotely control humanoid bionic robots and augmented reality. This is amazing. ." Thinking of this, he unconsciously thought of the augmented reality glasses developed by Tsinghua University.

To be honest, the augmented reality glasses developed by Tsinghua University are also very good and can be compared with brain-computer equipped with brain-computer integration technology.

There is absolutely no comparison. If Zeng really wants to say it, it can only be said that the fortune is bad. Now that Qingdao University also knows the news, I guess...
