Xueba's life simulator

Chapter 277 Two years later
After continuous hard work, when the time came to [-] in a hurry, Zhou Ming finally completed the task of [Mechanical Heart] far beyond the time he had initially estimated.

In this year, Zhou Ming was already 28 years old.

In the few years since the official start of the [Mechanical Heart] mission to the completion of the [Mechanical Heart] mission, earth-shaking changes have also taken place in the country.

In terms of aerospace, in [-], the aerospace department successfully brought back several kilograms of soil from the moon.

After two years of analysis and research, Zhou Ming's space synthetic biology project experimental team has even researched a simple plant planting technology that can use the soil brought back from the moon.

Zhou Ming's space synthetic biology project team can no longer be called a team, because after years of continuous recruitment of new members, the number of this experimental team has expanded to more than 100 people under such continuous expansion.

The experimental team of more than 100 people can't be called a small group anyway.

Because of the cooperation with the American aerospace department, and I don’t know when the brain cramped to end this cooperation, Huaguo’s aerospace department has been studying the American side since the beginning of the cooperation. aerospace technology.

Although only two or three years have passed, Huaguo's aerospace technology has made rapid progress in the past few years.

Although there is no way to compare it with biology and related fields and artificial intelligence and related fields, compared with the previous development speed in China, it is still far beyond.

Although the United States is also studying the biotechnology of Huaguo without sleep and food, the biotechnology of Huaguo is updated very fast. They have just learned a new technology not long ago. It was replaced.

Therefore, if such a technology needs to be changed, Huaguo will not suffer no matter what happens.

After bringing back several kilograms of soil from the moon in [-], at the beginning of [-], the Huaguo Aerospace Department hired Zhou Ming as the moon base "Moon Palace" after learning about Zhou Ming's situation. "The main person in charge of the construction project.

Of course, although Zhou Ming held this position, his usual research was mainly carried out by other researchers, and Zhou Ming's main energy was still focused on the research of artificial intelligence.

As the main person in charge of the "Moon Palace" construction project, Zhou Ming's main role is to provide research plans and solve problems encountered by some researchers during the research process.

However, if you want to say what field has developed the fastest in recent years, of course it is the field of biology and artificial intelligence projects.

Although Zhou Ming has already focused his research on artificial intelligence, the development speed of artificial intelligence still cannot keep up with biology and related fields.

However, this comparison cannot be made. After all, artificial intelligence is only a certain project in the computer field, while biology is a large field.

Thanks to Zhou Ming's joining, the artificial intelligence project is indeed developing faster than a certain project in the biological field, but if it is compared with the development of the entire biological field, it must not be compared.

Take the synthetic food, an old project that has been carried out in the field of biology for a long time, the scope of research in the past two years has also become wider and wider, and the depth of research has become deeper and deeper.

In the past, it was just simple and synthetic starch, glucose, fat and other substances, and now it is possible to synthesize food that is more complex than these substances.

And new projects like organ cloning technology, which catch up from behind, are developing at a very fast speed. They have shortened the time for directional cultivation of cloned organs to less than half a year.

That is to say, if you need to change an organ, if you use organ cloning technology to cultivate it from the moment you want to change an organ, it only takes less than half a year to change an organ that is exactly the same as your original organ.

The organs that are exactly the same as the original organs mentioned here refer to good organs, not bad organs. After all, cloning a bad organ will have no effect.

Although the time of less than half a year is short enough, it is still short for some people who need to continue organ transplantation in an emergency, so Zhou Ming's organ cloning technology experimental team is still working hard to improve the quality of cloning. Speed ​​and work hard.

When Zhou Ming used the life simulator last time, the organ 3D printing technology he saw in the simulated world was also officially put into research in [-].

After the future organ 3D printing technology is really successfully developed, the organ cloning technology can really solve those people who need organ transplantation.

Whether it's someone who needs a quick operation because of an emergency, or someone who can wait for a while before doing an organ transplant, their problems will be solved by then.

In addition, there are plant power generation technology, sea planting technology, water source and air purification technology, etc., all of which have made considerable progress.

In addition, the state has also specifically asked some universities to develop majors in plant mining, and more researchers and teams are engaged in research in this area.

Speaking of this plant mining technology, whether it is on the earth or on an alien planet, its role is very important.

The so-called plant mining refers to the use of high-accumulation plant growth and harvesting to recover commercially valuable metal materials from metal-rich parts of plant buds.

Plants not only mine, but also mine solid metal waste.

From the point of view that it can mine solid metal waste, it can provide a great help to environmental protection. After all, this is a very good way to recycle pollutants.

In fact, its working principle is also very simple to say, it is to eat "mine" first, then eat useful "mine", and then spit it out to create value.

This technology is actually derived from prospecting plants. Prospecting plants are plants that can be used by people to use their growth characteristics and mineral content in plants as signs for prospecting.

Some plants especially need certain mineral elements in their growth and development, and they often grow on soil with high metal content. They can absorb nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other macroelements and other trace elements in the soil through their roots, and let them grow Elements are enriched in the roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds of plants.

For example, alfalfa, its roots can secrete a substance that dissolves tantalum to dissolve tantalum in the soil, and then the roots of alfalfa absorb tantalum and transport it to all parts of the whole plant. A very important rare earth element in the industry.

When alfalfa was first discovered, scientists found through experiments that if one hectare of alfalfa was harvested and incinerated, 75 grams of metal tantalum could be obtained.

There are also red clover leaves and flowers that contain a lot of tantalum.

Pansies like to "eat" zinc as they grow.

Known as "copper grass", Haizhou fenugreek can absorb the copper element present in the soil, and its roots, stems, leaves, and flowers can all be used to smelt copper.

Milk vetch can absorb a large amount of selenium in the soil and accumulate it in the body...

Plant mining technology does not simply grow these plants and let them absorb minerals, but transforms them through genetic technology so that they can not only absorb a variety of minerals, but also increase their intake.

Although plant mining has provided great help in the prevention and restoration of soil pollution, resource recovery and utilization, the higher authorities have attached so much importance to this technology that some schools have developed related majors specifically for this purpose, but it is not mainly because of this reason.

In fact, the above-mentioned focus on this research is mainly because it can mine on alien planets. The alien planets mentioned here refer to Mars.

The reason why it is called Mars instead of the moon is because there is still a very big difference between Mars and the moon.

First of all, the biggest difference is that the moon has little gravity and no atmosphere.

Even if humans build a base on the moon, it is just to be able to conduct better research on the moon and go up to occupy a place earlier.

The moon is rich in minerals. The soil and rocks on the moon contain 40.00% oxygen, 30.00% silicon, and 20.00% to 5.00% iron, manganese, cobalt, titanium, chromium, nickel, aluminum, magnesium, and 100% Hydrogen and more than 1 kinds of mineral resources. [-]
Among the more than 100 kinds of mineral resources, six of them are not found on the earth.

And most importantly, in the thick dust on the surface of the moon, there is also a very important energy source, that is helium-3, which is an ideal nuclear fusion fuel.

Now the rule of international alien exploration is first-come-first-served, you go up to build the base first, and the surrounding area is yours.

Just like the rules of satellite orbits today, you launch the satellite first, then this orbit is yours.

Therefore, one of the purposes of many countries wanting to build bases on the moon is to grab a place and occupy a place first.

As for building a biosphere on the moon and turning it into a second home for mankind, no one has thought about it.

Because there is no atmosphere on the moon, it is completely in a vacuum.

Even building a base is not suitable for permanent human habitation, so building a survival base doesn't make much sense. You can only build scientific research bases for scientific research and mining bases for resource collection.

But it is different on Mars. Although there is no magnetic field on Mars, there is still a relatively thin atmosphere on Mars.

And if we can create an atmosphere on Mars like that on Earth, it will take about 100 million years for the solar wind to take away one percent of the atmosphere on Mars.

Therefore, compared to other planets in the solar system, Mars has the most space for transformation and becomes the second home of mankind.

At that time, not only can the plant mining technology be used to mine on Mars, but also the mined plants can be used to slowly transform the planet of Mars, and the plant power generation technology can be used to generate power for the Mars base.

This is the charm of biotechnology. Although Zhou Ming did not study physics, he did not know how to build a controllable nuclear fusion power plant, nor did he study chemistry, and he did not know how to improve the current chemical energy, but whether it is power generation or energy transformation, biotechnology The same can be achieved.

……

"Finally completed the task released by the life simulator this time, this is the longest task since I got the life simulator.

However, the missions released by Life Simulator in the past few times seem to take a long time, and it is not known what the next mission will be released by Life Simulator. "

When he successfully developed an artificial intelligence with autonomous consciousness and human emotions in advance, and completed the [Mechanical Heart] task issued to him by the life simulator, Zhou Ming couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

However, it is definitely impossible to use the life simulator to simulate immediately, because Zhou Ming is still in the laboratory.

Since it is a laboratory, it is naturally impossible for Zhou Ming to be alone.

If you want to use the life simulator, you can only wait until you go home.

"Haha, it worked, it worked, we finally made it."

When Zhou Ming was thinking about the life simulator, the other researchers around him who participated in the research all jumped up happily, and many of them even shed tears of excitement.

Although they are carrying out research on this artificial intelligence day and night, but they can achieve such results so quickly, they did not think about it when they first started the research.

"Okay, let's do a few more rounds of tests." Although he already knew the results, Zhou Ming said to several other researchers after turning his attention from the life simulator back to reality.

"Yes, yes, we can't be too happy now. Academician Zhou is right, let's conduct a few more rounds of tests." The researcher next to Zhou Ming hurriedly wiped away the sweat from the corner of his eyes after hearing what Zhou Ming said. With tears of excitement, he nodded and said.

Soon, the test of this artificial intelligence began.

However, regarding this test, Zhou Ming did not participate.

After all, Zhou Ming already knew the result, so he didn't have to wait for the result during the test.

The several rounds of tests this time were carried out very quickly, and ended that night, and in the early morning of the next day, the Flower Society first announced the relevant news to the outside world.

【Innovation and breakthrough of artificial intelligence, a new era of artificial intelligence is coming. 】

[Flowers Club, Capital Time, June 28th (Reporter Zhao Yuzhu) What kind of changes will the era of artificial intelligence bring to future development? On the 28th, the artificial intelligence technology jointly developed by the Institute of Artificial Intelligence and the Future Intelligent Technology Company, after more than three years and costing tens of billions of funds, finally achieved a new breakthrough...]

Although the news from the Flower Club was released in the middle of the night, there are still quite a few night owls in this day and age.

As soon as such news was released, it immediately attracted people's curiosity and attention.

After all, if you only read the title, you can't see what kind of breakthrough artificial intelligence has made this time, and when those who clicked in with curiosity, after seeing the specific content of the report of the Flower Club, they also revealed With an unbelievable expression on his face, he quickly forwarded the news.
