Penglai Space City is the background of the game "Proxima Centauri". It is to build a space city in the solar system and then use this space city to go to Proxima Centauri.
In the game "Proxima Centauri", the energy source of Penglai Space City is controllable nuclear fusion. In reality, the design and development of Penglai Space City has been ongoing.
As of now, there are multiple versions of Penglai Space City, and all have been demonstrated in terms of engineering.
Generally speaking, these versions of Penglai Space City are all about the same size, with a diameter of more than fifty kilometers.
It has a complete ecosystem, a complete defense system, and a permanent population of 30,000 people.
These versions of Penglai Space City are still being iterated on. With the development of science and technology and the updating and iteration of materials, the facilities and safety of Penglai Space City are becoming more and more perfect.
If there is a problem, it is the ecology of the space city and the energy source of the space city. The ecological problems of the space city are verified by Ecosystem No. 1 and Ecosystem No. 2. As time goes by, more and more data are collected, and creating a perfect ecological problem for the space city is not a big problem.
What it takes is time. As for energy issues, it still relies on controllable nuclear fusion. You know, the distance between the solar system and Proxima Centauri is a little more than four light years, and current energy technology is not feasible.
According to current standards, it would take ten years to reach Proxima Centauri from the solar system, which is still ideal.
In ten years, it will be unrealistic to rely on fossil fuels or nuclear fission energy to maintain the operation of the space city.
As for using the light beam project to harness the energy of the sun, this is not very realistic. In the end, the only thing we can rely on is controllable nuclear fusion, that is, fusion energy.
As it stands, as long as controllable nuclear fusion technology is developed, human civilization can go directly from post-industrial civilization to interstellar civilization.
As Fan Xiaoming spoke, he waved his hand, and multiple holograms of Penglai Space City appeared in front of the three of them.
Zuo Dajun looked at what was in front of him and said with a smile: "I know these Penglai space cities, and I have done a lot of work on the design. Furthermore, we are involved in the supporting space suits and related mechas. "Almost everyone participated in the design of Penglai Space City.
He and his scientific research team not only participated in the specific design of the space city, but were also the main creative team of space suits and mechas.
Fan Xiaoming smiled and nodded and said: "As long as the current Penglai Space City solves the ecological and energy problems, the construction of the Penglai Space City can begin, and then it will go to Proxima Centauri." In fact, many are being built now. The space cities all draw lessons from the design of Penglai Space City.
You know, the design of Penglai Space City is the earliest. The design of Penglai Space City began at the beginning of the game "Proxima Centauri".
At the beginning, everyone still wanted to have fun. I didn't expect it to develop so fast. The moon landing was successful, the Three-Gate Plan was completed, the preliminary work of the Light Pillar Project was successful, and the moon began to be developed on a large scale.
It all happened so quickly. At this time, everyone started to take Penglai Space City seriously. Up to now, many space facilities such as space cities built in space have borrowed lessons from the Penglai Space City.
It is said to be a reference, but in fact it is also to verify the feasibility of these designs. Zuo Dajun said with a smile: "Yes, ecological issues are relatively only a matter of time. Energy is the core. As long as there is controllable nuclear fusion technology, Penglai Space City can be built."
"This is the truth." Su Zhe smiled,
"Energy is the most critical issue. As long as we have controllable nuclear fusion technology, we will be able to explore deep space." As they spoke, the ring device and multiple versions of the Penglai space city in front of the three people They all disappeared, leaving only the mecha and its structural exploded view.
Fan Xiaoming smiled and said: "The problem of the mecha's energy will be solved after the proton nuclear fusion device is successfully miniaturized. What's left is the mecha's life support system." Zuo Dajun waved his hand in front of the three people. The solution for the mecha's life support system appeared.
"The current life support system can sustain the user for forty-eight hours when prepared. What is mainly involved here is not the consumption of oxygen, but the personal energy intake."
"With sufficient energy, the life support system can only last for forty-eight hours. According to our requirements, we want to design the human body to be in a dormant state and the brain to be active. Our minimum requirement is seven days .”
"There are several research directions to achieve this goal, but this life support system must also take into account the acceleration it endures."... After listening to Zuo Dajun's explanation, Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming both understood.
Fan Xiaoming said with a smile: "This life support system is very difficult! In fact, not only mechas, but also manned flying saucers, space cities, etc. all need such a life support system. In this way, these manned aircraft UFOs, space cities, etc. can have greater mobility. Similarly, people who use brain machines also need such a life support system." Seven days of life support time, plus resistance to large acceleration.
This is very difficult. In the same way, using such a life support system can always use the brain computer.
Zuo Dajun nodded and said: "I also know it is difficult, but I think it is still feasible." Su Zhe nodded and said with a smile: "The direction is not wrong, and it is theoretically possible. Let's take our time and persist. Sooner or later it will come true." He understood what Zuo Dajun meant.
The Jiutian Research Center has a scientific research team of ten thousand people studying the mechanisms of the human body. If you want to develop such a life-support system, you must understand the mechanism of the human body.
Fan Xiaoming smiled and said: "It would be best to develop that kind of hibernation technology, or the kind of hibernation technology that can keep the brain active." He is very optimistic about this technology. It requires not only mechas, but also many application scenarios.
Zuo Dajun smiled and nodded quickly,
"Yes! Yes! What we need is this kind of technology. With this kind of technology, we can drive the mecha for a long time." Fan Xiaoming looked at the time and said: "Dajun, don't worry, I will let the scientific research team give priority to targeting For research in this area, no matter what, we need such a mecha." Seeing that the time was almost up, Su Zhe and the others said a few words and disappeared into this space at the same time.
At the same time, three people appeared in the space where the virtual press conference was located. At this time, the venue was full of people, and these people gathered together to discuss the next experience, which was the experience of the upgraded humanoid bionic robot and engineering mecha.
"I heard that controlling a humanoid bionic robot has the same feeling as controlling your own body. You can see things like vision, hearing, touch, and can see farther. Everything is the same as how we control our own body. It can be controlled with consciousness."
"Not only that, but also the ability to fly. Even this ability to fly is directly controlled by consciousness. Controlling flight! It's like we have an extra ability. To be honest, with brain machines and humanoid bionic robots, in the future we will You can really stay at home and remotely control the humanoid bionic robot to complete whatever you need."
"The most exciting thing is to control humanoid bionic robots to fly at high speeds. There are also engineering mechas. When brain machines and upgraded engineering mechas become popular, there will probably be big changes around the earth. As for the deindustrialization of the earth, it will soon be It can be realized."... At this time, Bao Qi stepped onto the stage, and after the venue quieted down, he began to introduce the next experience process.
The two thousand people at the venue correspond to the one thousand humanoid bionic robots and one thousand engineering mechas at the Tamu Gobi Sanmen Base.
These two thousand people were randomly selected to experience the humanoid bionic robot in the first hour, and the engineering mecha in the second hour.
To put it simply, it means swapping the front and back. Bao Qizheng also introduced the process that may be encountered when experiencing humanoid bionic robots and engineering mechas.
After Bao Qizheng finished speaking, two constantly changing numbers appeared in front of more than 2,000 people present. These numbers represented humanoid bionic robots and engineering mechas.
During this process, more than two thousand people were not idle and were still discussing.
"I'm so anxious! I have to choose a number at the last minute, just to experience the humanoid bionic robot and the engineering mecha first. It's just an hour earlier. It's really frustrating, but I think it's a good choice."
"Right! Let me experience the humanoid bionic robot first. One hour is enough time for me to go back and forth between the earth and the moon. This time I want to take a good look. This experience is rare."
"I have thought about it. First, fly directly to the moon through the beam channel, visit the industrial city under construction on the moon, and then walk around the earth. There are so many interesting places to see, otherwise I will really regret the opportunity I have experienced this time. .”…
"This experience is a big deal for me! Except for a few areas, we can see the earth, the moon and their surroundings. I will first go around the earth in low orbit to see our beautiful earth, and then Go see something else.”
"The opportunity is rare. Not to mention the opening of many areas this time, let's just say that this experience is a rare opportunity. If we want to experience it again, we will have to wait until three months later, and we will have to wait until the upgraded humanoid bionic robots and engineering machines The popularity of A.”
"That's right, so we have to cherish this opportunity to experience it. It's a pity that this time we can't walk on the surface of the earth, and we have to be a hundred kilometers above the ground. This is too unfriendly, actually! I just want to take a good look When you look at other countries, you can look at them from a close distance. Now that it’s better, you can only look at them from a distance.”…
"Well, I want to go see the back side of the moon. I've always been curious about what the back side of the moon looks like. I heard that there are many powerful devices behind the moon, which are the cornerstone of our earth's security. That being said, I just want to know. What exactly are these.”
"Needless to say, it is of course the base of the SS-Defense System. You don't know this. The back of the moon is an important firepower point of the SS-Defense System. I heard from the gossip that the firepower that hits the back of the moon can be hit with one strike. It smashed an asteroid with a diameter of 100 kilometers. With this firepower, even if aliens come, they can destroy it directly."
"The ss-defense system is not limited to the moon. I have heard that the ss-defense system is constantly expanding. Right now, with the earth as the center, the space within a radius of 10 million kilometers is covered by the ss-defense system. The control range and so on, and well, this space is still expanding."... While these people were discussing in a lively manner, the two constantly changing numbers in front of everyone stopped.
"Not bad! I have good luck today! Let me experience the humanoid bionic robot first."
"Ha! I also won the lottery of a humanoid bionic robot. I'm leaving first. I can't waste time."
"Unlucky, I'm trying out the engineering mecha first. No matter what, I'll leave first." After confirming, the two thousand people disappeared into the venue one after another.
After a while, there were only five people left in the venue: Su Zhe, Xu Zhengping, Fan Xiaoming, Zuo Dajun, and Bao Qizheng.
Fan Xiaoming said with a smile: "These people were in a hurry, and they all left in just a moment."
"No, after all, the time is only two hours." Zuo Dajun smiled,
"This experience has been completed. You can visit many areas. In the past, those places were forbidden to visit." Xu Zhengping said with a smile: "You don't have to look at the people participating in the experience today. Of course, we people have different permissions. As far as the back of the moon is concerned, of the two thousand people, only a few dozen people can visit, and others are not allowed to go." Although many places have been opened this time area, but it is also open on a limited basis.
Those with permission can visit, but those without permission cannot visit. Of course, there are not many such areas, and there are many places you can visit.
Just like an industrial zone in orbit around the Earth. It was not open to the public before. Except for relevant personnel, no one else wanted to get close.
It's different now, everything is open. The most important thing is that this time it is not only open to these two thousand people, but also to those who remotely control humanoid bionic robots that have not been upgraded through the game cabin.
It's just that the opening time is today's afternoon. Fan Xiaoming waved his hand, and many scenes from the live broadcast room appeared in front of everyone.
In these live broadcast rooms, the most popular topic is when brain computers, humanoid bionic robots, and engineering mechas will be popularized.
Bao Qi was watching these live broadcasts and said with a smile: "If it were me, I would be anxious too! Controlling a humanoid bionic robot flying around in space is not as unrealistic as before. It is different now." From the surface Look, most people can now remotely control humanoid bionic robots to fly in space through game cabins, and can also visit facilities in space.
But these are not real enough. They are almost like games. It’s different now. The upgraded humanoid bionic robot can be remotely controlled through brain-computer control, just like controlling one’s own body.
There is absolutely no comparison between the two. Fan Xiaoming waved his hand again, and those live broadcast images disappeared, and what appeared was the image of Sanmen Base.
Su Zhe smiled and said, "Let's go! Those people have started, it's time for us to pass."
