To realize controllable nuclear fusion technology, the most fundamental thing is that the output energy is greater than the input energy.
If you can't do that, there's no point.
I heard Ning Changsheng say this.
Si Wenbo quickly said: "Don't! It's too flattering to say that. The material was produced by our scientific research team, but the theory was all done by Professor Su. We were just helping to verify it."
After all, they were lucky.
Energy recovery in doing accelerators.
To be honest, he did not expect that the energy recovery method he participated in would be used in the proton nuclear fusion device. The most important thing is that it played a decisive role.
Fan Xiaoming smiled and said, "Professor Si! You don't have to be modest. No matter what, the proton nuclear fusion device has your contribution."
Si Wenbo had a smile on his face, "You're welcome! You're welcome! I did what I should do. Now it's time to see the final results of the proton fusion device. I hope everything goes well."
Said.
Si Wenbo looked at the data on the big screen.
Fan Xiaoming glanced at the data on the big screen and said with a smile: "Look! The data on the operation of the proton fusion device is very stable, Professor Si! The construction of your second earth at Tsingta University can begin."
Judging from the current operating status, there is basically no problem.
I was a little worried at first.
But now with neutrino detection equipment, the entire process can be seen clearly.
At this time, if problems arise again, it is your fault.
Simply put.
Under the current conditions, it is difficult to succeed.
Si Wenbo smiled even more happily, "Well, everyone is dissatisfied. Just now, the moment the beam was lit, the construction of our Second Earth at Qingdao University began."
This is no joke.
This is what Tsinghua University decided.
As long as the proton nuclear fusion device is successfully ignited, the construction of Second Earth can begin. Even if the proton nuclear fusion device has a small problem, that doesn't matter.
They believe the problem will be solved soon.
It will not delay the construction of their second earth.
Zuo Dajun said excitedly: "So proactive, aren't you afraid that the ignition verification of the proton nuclear fusion device will fail?"
Si Wenbo said without hesitation: "What are you afraid of? Even if there are problems, it will be completed quickly. We have to race against time! The earlier we develop Proxima Centauri, the earlier we will protect the solar system."
He is not the only one going to Proxima Centauri now.
There are so many projects that are going to Proxima Centauri.
Relatively speaking, the Second Earth built by Qingda University has the largest volume and the longest construction period. If they were more proactive, by the time Second Earth reaches Proxima Centauri, there will be no room in Proxima Centauri.
It would be embarrassing if it really came to this.
In his opinion, the sooner construction is completed, the better.
But one thing is true.
The earlier we develop Proxima Centauri, the earlier we can protect the solar system.
For now, the development of the solar system is inevitable.
But for the development of the solar system, try to do as little development as possible.
Only in this way can the sun's environment be protected to prevent the balance of the solar system from being disrupted.
Xu Zhengping smiled and said, "That's right. The sooner we develop other star systems, the sooner we can protect the solar system. To be honest, the sooner we protect the solar system, the greater the damage to the solar system will be. .”
in the original plan.
As long as the industries around the earth meet the needs of human life on the earth, it will be fine.
As for external development, it relies on an industrial zone centered on Mars to build Mars into a manufacturing center.
This was the arrangement in the past.
But things are very different now.
The proton nuclear fusion device has come out, which provides the conditions for development outside the solar system.
If super light is added
high-speed communication technology and super-light flight technology.
Then there would be no need for large-scale development of the solar system.
Just mine some resources and manufacture them in the industrial area of Mars.
As long as the early stage is passed, the solar system can really be protected.
Whether it is resources or energy, they can all be mined in the star systems surrounding the solar system.
Zuo Dajun said very excitedly, "Yes! I know about the super-light speed communication technology. Su Zhe said that it can be made in a few days. It goes without saying that the importance of super-light speed communication technology is high, but I want to go faster." To develop the star systems around the solar system, we need faster-than-light flight technology. If we develop faster-than-light flight technology, then we really don’t have to develop the solar system on a large scale. There are so many star systems around the solar system. We can develop whatever we want.”
For now.
The proton nuclear fusion device will succeed within sight, which means that energy freedom will soon be achieved.
Energy freedom also means that energy is no longer a problem.
If you want to develop rapidly, you must solve the problem of the speed of light limitation.
Superluminal communication technology solves the problem of information traveling faster than the speed of light, which can solve a lot of problems, but it has not yet solved the problem of matter traveling faster than the speed of light.
In this case, it is still impossible to break through the limit of the speed of light.
As long as matter exceeds the speed of light, its development speed will not increase.
If you think about it, you will know that instead of using the resources of the solar system for development, use the resources of the star systems surrounding the solar system for development.
If nothing else, distance is a chasm that is difficult to bridge.
As for Proxima Centauri, its distance from the solar system is 4.3 light years, which is calculated based on the speed of light.
A round trip takes nine years.
Such a long time.
How many nine years can a person live without life extension?
Hearing Zuo Dajun mention the super-light flight technology, several people looked at Su Zhe.
Si Wenbo sighed: "I also know that super-light flight technology is good, but it is unrealistic to expect such technology now! The difficulty must be huge. In my opinion, it is better to take it slow and take it one step at a time. Maybe something will happen." At that time, super-light flight technology was developed, and now even tachyon particles have been discovered. I think we will be able to develop super-light flight technology within a few years."
Who doesn’t want faster-than-light flight technology and who is stupid!
Of course, such technology is hard to come by and cannot be forced.
Zuo Dajun nodded and said, "I guess so. The paper will be made public soon, so that more researchers can join in the research on related technologies. However, the number of people participating in scientific research is still small now. It is only 600 million when fully calculated. , if we only count those professionals, it would be good to have 200 million. Of course, this cannot be rushed. What we need is to wait for the population increase plan to be implemented. It will take more than ten years to wait for scientific research. The number of personnel can be increased. A simple calculation shows that it is possible to increase by 20 billion, and it will continue to increase. If there are more people doing scientific research, the scientific research results will naturally be more. As for now, this can only be done. "..net
The development of science and technology requires numbers of people.
That was true in the past and it is true now.
One more person means one more possibility.
Fan Xiaoming thought for a while and said: "To be honest, our development speed has been fast enough in the past year or so. Often more advanced technologies appear before a project has even started. I don't think we are too fast." We are a little anxious. You know, we have just landed on Mars, and other special zones have just landed on other celestial bodies. Even the network covering the entire solar system has not been completed! Now we are in a hurry to develop Proxima Centauri. Really ! We are too anxious, we can wait until our next generation becomes adults."
Over the past year or so, the development speed has been too fast.
Especially this half year.
If the development speed in the past was crawling on the ground, now it is flying in the sky.
Even so, everyone still feels that the speed of development is too slow.
More than a year
, from the information age to the space age.
With the success of the proton nuclear fusion device, the space age will soon enter the interstellar age.
It’s only been over a year!
A year ago, most people in the world were living below the poverty line. Now everyone is living a prosperous life.
At that time, most people still did repetitive tasks and worked to survive.
It's different now.
Completely different.
All repetitive tasks have been replaced by artificial intelligence and robots.
Even so, there are still many people who feel that the speed of development is too slow.
No.
Before the proton nuclear fusion device was completely successful, I was thinking of developing Proxima Centauri, but I thought the flight speed was too slow.
You know, the speed of current aircraft can reach sub-light speed.
Such speed was unimaginable in the past.
That’s why I think so now that there is a cold nuclear fusion device.
Zuo Dajun smiled and said: "It's true! Compared with the past, our current development speed is not even a little bit, but I always feel that it is still too slow. What's going on? It shouldn't be like this. Just take us In terms of developing the solar system, the industrial cities on the moon have been built, but not many people have immigrated there. The reason is that the moon is too close to the earth. If you want to go to the moon, you can just remotely control the humanoid bionic robot. , the Earth's orbital industrial zone is almost built, and expansion should not happen, at least in the short term. Then there is Mars, which is currently under construction. At the current speed, especially the cold nuclear fusion device After the blessing, it is estimated that the development of Mars will be completed in less than half a year, followed by the development of other planetary satellites. Looking at it now, it seems that this is not necessary, because our focus has begun to shift, and our focus has shifted to the outer solar system. Space."
Since the introduction of cold nuclear fusion devices, the speed of development has increased.
Take the development of Mars as an example.
If it had been planned from the beginning, the delivery of supplies would have to go through the beam channel, but now there is no need for it at all.
With the cold nuclear fusion device, all flights are direct, and there is no need to consider the issue of energy consumption, only the issue of time.
In this way, the transportation problem is solved.
Then there is the issue of battery life of construction machinery and engineering robots.
It's still the same problem. With the proton nuclear fusion device, the battery life will be increased hundreds of times and thousands of times. In this way, the efficiency will naturally be improved.
Coupled with the neutrino detection equipment and neutrino communication equipment that have just been successfully verified, it is cheating.
Without neutrino detection equipment, prospecting was a very troublesome matter.
After digging and digging, all kinds of methods were used, but maybe in the end, the mine you wanted was still not found.
There are many celestial bodies in the solar system, but it is not easy to find the required minerals.
Take prospecting for minerals on the moon as an example. It is not very different from the methods of prospecting in the past.
To be honest, this method of prospecting is very inefficient.
The most important thing is.
If the signal coverage is in place, then you can use remote control or artificial intelligence to find ore. If there is no signal coverage, then people drive mechas or construction machinery to find ore.
The former requires signal coverage, the latter is dangerous.
Even so, the efficiency of prospecting is not high.
It can be said that these proven ores are the raw materials for development, and the quantity of these minerals limits the speed of development.
But now that we have neutrino detection equipment, it's completely different.
The prospecting process in the past can be completely eliminated.
The prospecting equipment and people are no longer needed.
As long as you use neutrino detection equipment to scan, any mineral can be discovered.
The rest of the work can be arranged directly for development.
This is prospecting.
It is also a neutrino detection device
The party is still going on.
During this period, Osomarit said that he had prepared a place for Ella and others to stay, but Ella refused angrily because her chicken legs were stepped on. This made Osomarit a little embarrassed. But Dust, who was accompanying him, soon came to another table boasting about the accommodation conditions of the flying Zealander. What he said was fascinating, but it aroused Osomat's curiosity.
"I was rude." He apologized to Ella. "In my lifetime, I hope to gain the favor of the God Envoy and go to the ship for a visit."
Ella's attention was all on the food on Amy's table, and she didn't pay attention to Osomarit's words at all, and only said a few casual words. Osomarit looked very happy and took a big bite of the tortilla.
In short, the banquet ended with joy and laughter.
Amy clutched her full belly and walked back to the port with a shiny face. As she walked, she chatted with Ella about the food at the banquet.
"That tequila is really good. It's the color of milk and tastes as thick as milk. I heard the Aztlan people said that even nobles rarely drink this kind of wine. They can only drink it during sacrificial activities or It’s only when celebrating a victory. I’m really lucky to be able to drink it today. And that tomato looks red and poisonous, but the sour taste is really appetizing. This time, I ate it as a raw fruit, but it felt okay. Use it for seasoning when cooking... The most powerful thing is the thing called chili pepper! I bet this will be very popular in Sweden! And I also heard that this spice is very cheap in Aztlan. A hugely profitable business..."
"I'm not in the mood to discuss business right now!" Ella yelled angrily, "Because I'm about to starve to death! Have you ever seen a businessman who starved to death while making huge profits?"
"Didn't Your Majesty eat a plate of corn cakes? That thing called corn is really delicious. I don't know what it looks like before it is ground into powder. If possible, I would like to bring some seeds back to plant..."
"But what I want to eat is meat! Oily, fragrant, fat, delicious, tender and juicy meat! Otherwise I will starve to death!"
"Eating without meat will not lead to starvation..."
"Amy, of course you don't need to eat meat because you're so plump! But I'm still growing! If I really don't eat meat for 63 days, people will call me little Scipio!"
Ella, who was complaining like this, suddenly stopped and grabbed the shoulder of Amy who was walking ahead.
"I noticed that there are a lot of dishes left on your table! The servants who were cleaning up didn't throw away the leftovers when they left, but said they wanted to take them back to the kitchen! If you go back there now, you might be able to find some. A little oil and water..."
"Your Majesty???" Amy was shocked, "Do you want to eat the leftovers left by others?"
"Gu...wasting food is shameful!"
"I've never seen your Majesty save food like that in normal times! Think clearly, Your Majesty! It's a trivial matter if etiquette doesn't hurt, but if someone catches you eating the leftovers they're about to throw away, you won't be able to act no matter how hard you act. People believe you are God’s messenger!”
"Then I have to eat meat too!" Ella stamped her foot, "If we don't go back to the kitchen, then we will go to the forest! We will catch some prey on site and cook it back!"
"Hunting...?" Amy looked at the already dark sky, "It's too late now, we don't know the terrain, and there will be many snakes and insects crawling out of the forest at night, and you will step on them accidentally... I will Let’s go to the market and see if there’s any meat for sale?”
"Amy, you smell of barbecue from head to toe, including the words you speak! How can I endure it until tomorrow!" Ella continued to stamp her feet, "I finally got to the city, I must eat meat today. ! Either go to the kitchen or go to the forest!"
"Then it's better to go to the kitchen..."
"That's it! Amy, come with me! The others will go directly back to the Flying Sealander!" Ella grabbed Amy, abandoned the guards and ran back, "Run faster! Slow down, those remaining The food was probably eaten by Aztlan’s servants!”
The nobles who participated in the banquet had all left, and the entrance to the courtyard seemed a little deserted. Only a few guards were still standing there. Judging from their faces, they had changed. The mansion inside is no longer as brightly lit as it was during the banquet. Only two or three rooms still have weak lights.
It worked.
Then there are neutrino communication devices.
With this thing, the signal is fully covered. Whether it is the surface of the celestial body or the core of the celestial body, there is a signal.
In other words, in the future, there will be no need for personnel to intervene in mechas at the beginning of mining.
The entire process can be controlled remotely or mined directly using artificial intelligence.
When these are combined, it will be impossible to develop Mars quickly.
To say half a year means more.
But having said that, the scale of Mars development is much larger than that of the Earth and the Moon.
According to the revised plan.
There will be no bases or settlements built on the surface of Mars.
Human settlements, like industrial areas, are built in the orbit of Mars.
Mars only serves as a resource supply point.
According to the plan, Mars will serve as the center of the development of the solar system.
But judging from the current development trend, the solar system will not be developed on a large scale.
Because of the emergence of proton nuclear fusion devices, the focus of development has shifted to the outer space of the solar system.
Just like those special zones, the center of development is placed on the star Proxima Centauri, which is four point three light years away.
Also because of the emergence of proton nuclear fusion devices, many people have proposed protecting the solar system and not developing it if possible.
Si Wenbo thought for a while and said: "Hey! It's really like this. Compared with the past, our current development speed is many times faster, but I always feel that the development speed is still too slow. According to my idea, that is When building the Second Earth, it can be built in a day or two. To be honest, half a year does take a long time. I don’t know why it always makes me think so. As for the center of development, let’s look at it now. I really don’t care about the solar system anymore. The proton nuclear fusion device is about to come out. Who will care about the small solar system? Wouldn’t it be nice to explore the outer space of the solar system?”
Over the past year or so, the exploration of the solar system has almost been completed.
After the neutrino detection equipment came out, there were no more secrets in the solar system.
The key is that there is now a proton nuclear fusion device.
It also has the ability to explore the outer space of the solar system.
Everyone also looks down on the solar system.
