Chapter 306 Preparing to Detect the Kuiper Belt
It took them nearly a week or so for the asteroid to drag him near the orbit of the moon.

After all, the Ming Empire does not allow such a large asteroid to enter the Earth’s lunar orbit. This is a space safety regulation made by the Ming Empire long ago. Once an asteroid or meteorite with a diameter of more than 50 meters enters the Earth’s lunar orbit, Immediately, they will be warned by the space management center of the Ming Empire, and their qualifications to pilot spaceships will be revoked, so they can only stay near the moon orbit, but there is nothing near the moon orbit now, such as the place where they are now The place was planned by the Ming Empire as a space ore trading center. There is also a small space city here. The diameter of this space city is less than [-] meters. There are not many people living there, and most of these people are those who smelt Metal manufacturers have ore buyers based here.

When their spacecraft arrived here, he saw space mining ships that were the same as theirs, and most of these mining ships were dragging various ores, large and small, behind them.

Just when they were approached by the ship to the trading center, they saw a small spaceship the size of a car flying over from a distance. This spaceship was actually the smallest means of transportation between spaceships of the Ming Empire in space. The smallest of these spaceships is only more than three meters long and one meter wide, and the largest is only about ten meters, because once it exceeds ten meters, it does not belong to the spaceship.

This spaceship approached their ore ship and asked to communicate with them.

Regarding this situation, the four brothers have never experienced it before, so they are still a little confused, but they still agreed to each other's communication request.

"Hello! I am a staff member of the center, and my name is Deng Cong.

That's right, to enter the Cosmos Ore Trading Center, you must have inspectors from our trading center to analyze the ore you have mined to determine the composition of the ore, and then register the ore. After the registration is complete, it will be fine.

If someone needs it, they can see the information of the ore you stepped on from the trading platform of the trading center, and someone will buy it directly from you at that time. Of course, if there is an ore that has stayed in the trading center for a month and has not been sold If it goes out, the official will evaluate it according to the composition of the ore, and then the official will recycle it.And I came here this time to test the minerals for you. "The staff member named Deng Cong said.

"Okay, we got it, thank you." As the eldest of the four brothers and the captain of the Five Brothers, he replied.

The ore detection is very fast. Such a large piece of ore, including the other three pieces in their spaceship, was tested in less than 10 minutes, and then they drove the space mining ship into the trading center.

……

The discussion meeting on the Mars transformation plan of the moon is still going on. After all, the Mars transformation is a very large project, so the most detailed plan must be made.

During this period of time, Zhu Lei also stayed on the moon, but he did not stay on the moon solely for the discussion meeting of the Mars transformation plan, and the discussion meeting may last for 1 to 2 years. It is impossible to stay there every day, you just have to go there from time to time.

In fact, the main reason for staying on the moon is that Zhu Lei and his Yong'an Group are preparing to start the next goal of the universe plan, which is to conduct further exploration of the Kuiper belt of the solar system and places outside the Kuiper belt, and provide the Ming Empire with the next step to explore the solar system. The galaxy Proxima Centauri gets ready.

Because the first controllable nuclear fusion reactor of the Ming Empire is about to be completed, mankind will soon enter a new era of spaceflight, so long-distance space travel in the near future is no longer a dream for the Ming Empire, and The fastest spaceship that can be manufactured with the current technology of the Ming Empire can already reach about 10% of the speed of light, and it only takes a few decades to reach Proxima Centauri at such a speed, and a few decades Time is nothing to the current average life expectancy of the Ming Empire.

Before detecting Proxima Centauri, the Ming Empire must complete a detailed survey of the entire solar system and its surrounding environment, and from now on, arm the entire solar system. After all, human beings’ current space power is still too weak, especially early warning capability.

With the current space military early warning capabilities of human beings, even if the enemy really reaches the edge of the solar system, more than 80% of human beings may not be able to vent. After all, human beings have a warning radar at the edge of the solar system, and all warning forces are Provided by the earth itself.

The earth's various warning radars and various space telescopes can only warn the eight planets of the solar system at the farthest. In fact, human beings are already very passive. Even if the war is won in the end, human civilization will suffer a very heavy blow.

After all, space wars are fought at our door, and it is very likely to spread to our home. Therefore, human beings must grasp the situation of the solar system, and human beings have to deploy various warning radars on the periphery of the solar system, as well as space telescopes. Every move outside the solar system , and even if there is time, various defensive weapons will be installed in the Kuiper belt of the solar system. Only in this way will the safety of the entire solar system and the safety of human beings be guaranteed to a certain extent.

Therefore, due to the smooth implementation of the asteroid belt mining plan, the Ming Empire will no longer be short of various metal minerals in the future, and the controllable nuclear fusion technology has made a breakthrough, so in the future, the warning system and defense system in the outer reaches of the solar system will be rebooted There is no need to worry about the lack of energy, and the controllable nuclear fusion technology can provide enough energy for these defense systems and warning systems.

In fact, Zhu Lei's Yonghuang Group has sent many space probes to conduct preliminary investigations of the entire solar system before this, but because these probes are all unmanned probes, and these probes are products made a few years ago , Compared to now, it is already very backward, and some of these probes have not even reached the outer reaches of the solar system, so the data collected before are very simple.

And because these detectors are generally small in size, the technology is relatively backward, and the speed of the detectors is also very slow, so the collected data is still very limited.

So Zhu Lei and the others re-customized the exploration plan of the solar system. The biggest difference between this plan and the previous probes launched is that this time his Yongan Group plans to use a combination of manned spacecraft and unmanned probes to detect solar system.
