Interstellar Industrial Age

The conference on transforming Mars has been held for more than a month. Scientists have been discussing various plans, and they have been proposing and denying plans one by one.

The quantum computers of the Galaxy Science Research Institute have become extremely busy, and each plan needs to be calculated by the computer to obtain more accurate data, so as to simulate the transformation of Mars through the computer, so as to judge the feasibility of transforming Mars. .

In the end, scientists slowly came to a conclusion that the only feasible solution now is to use asteroids to impact Mars to transform Mars.

The mass of Mars is too small, and the internal pressure is not enough. If the core wants to activate again, it must increase its mass. The greater the mass, the greater the pressure inside the planet, thereby reactivating the core of Mars. This is the most critical step.

Only when the core of Mars is completely activated and re-energized can Mars form a magnetic field and retain the atmosphere of Mars. Otherwise, even if more gaseous asteroids are put on Mars, Mars will not be able to retain it. atmosphere.

And without the protection of the magnetic field, the respective rays from the universe, the ultraviolet rays of the sun, etc. will cause fatal damage to the life on the planet.

The first step is to increase the mass of Mars and completely activate the core of Mars.

Through the data and information collected by the 'Kwafu' spacecraft, the core of Mars has not been completely extinguished and cooled. It only needs to add a certain amount of mass to it, and it can be completely activated again. This step is not difficult, but It's not easy to do.

The mass of Mars is much smaller than that of Earth, but compared with asteroids, it is definitely a behemoth. If you want to increase the mass of Mars, the mass required will be very huge, which is definitely a very huge project.

The second step is to add water to Mars. Life needs water, at least life on Earth. Without water, everything is empty talk.

Mars itself has very little water. It is necessary to extract asteroids containing a large amount of water from the asteroid belt and the moons of Jupiter to hit Mars to add water to Mars and create the possibility for the survival of life.

Scientists also speculate that there was once a lot of water on Mars, but because of the disappearance of Mars’ magnetic field, the water on Mars slowly turned into water vapor, and most of it eventually escaped into space.

The third step is to adjust the atmosphere of Mars, and still rely on asteroids containing a lot of gas to complete this step. The atmosphere of Mars is too thin to form protection for the creatures on Mars, and the oxygen content is too low, which is not suitable for humans at all. Survive.

These three are the main steps,

The first step is the most critical. The second and third steps can only be carried out after the core of Mars is completely excited and Mars has a magnetic field again.

And the core of transforming Mars is achieved by using asteroids to hit Mars. No matter which step it is, all needs to be completed by asteroids.

This is simply a bottomless pit. Even if we sell our company, it is absolutely impossible for us to complete this project!

Here at the Academy of Sciences, the quantum computer was doing crazy calculations, and finally a huge number appeared. When he saw this number, Liu Peiqiang couldn't help crying out.

This time, the computer is not calculating the feasibility of Mars transformation, but the calculation of the funds needed to transform Mars, 100 million Chinese dollars. This is only the first step. The funds needed to increase the quality of Mars are still conservative calculations by the computer. out data.

Galaxy Technology Group is now the most valuable company on earth. It is estimated that only Qin Yi himself knows how profitable Galaxy Technology Group is.

You must know that the lunar mining companies on the moon can have a market value of 30 trillion. The Galaxy Mining Group, a subsidiary of Galaxy Technology Group, is the largest mining group on the moon.

This is just a subsidiary of Galaxy Technology Group. The value of the entire Galaxy Technology Group cannot be estimated at all.

However, when Liu Peiqiang saw the number calculated by the computer, he couldn't help but shout it out. It was not enough to sell Galaxy Technology Group.

This number is too huge, so huge that it makes people feel hopeless, 100 million Chinese dollars, this is just the first step, to complete all the transformation plans to transform Mars, see Mars become a living planet suitable for human habitation, and also I don't know how many billions it will cost.

It would be worthwhile to spend 100 million to transform Mars. After all, a planet of life is priceless. I'm afraid, no matter how much money is spent, there is no way to transform it.

Lu Qingwei, who has never been serious, couldn't help but say seriously, this number is too huge. You must know that there are only a few billion people in the world. How can there be so much money on earth.

If everyone has tens of millions, the money is worthless.

According to the current value of asteroids, this 100 million-ton asteroid should be worth at least 100 billion yuan, and this 100 million yuan fund can only add 100,000 asteroids to Mars, and it is not enough. 10 trillion tons of mass, which is insignificant for Mars.

I suspect that the 100 million yuan is simply not enough, far from enough.

Liu Peiqiang made a simple calculation, but couldn't help shaking his head.

It can't be calculated like this. If we transform Mars, any asteroids can be used, those that do not contain metals and have little value can also be used. These asteroids are huge in number and mass, 100 million tons of asteroids. At most, it’s worth 10 billion.”

And as more and more people mine asteroids, the mining of asteroids in the future will tend to be saturated and common, and asteroids will not be as valuable as they are now.

What's more, this spacecraft is made by ourselves. Our technology is getting more and more advanced, and the cost of mining asteroids will be lower and lower in the future. For large-mass asteroids, we can mine them ourselves. Not much money.

Qin Yi on the side seemed very calm, and was not frightened by this terrifying number.

In the science and technology tower, I have seen a lot of alien civilization transforming the planet. This number looks scary, but in fact, with the advancement of technology and the development of civilization, transforming a planet will not cost too much.

My boss, it doesn't cost much, and it is estimated that only you can say such a thing on the whole earth.

Even if you can't spend a huge capital of 100 million, these hundreds of trillions are at least needed. Such a huge capital, not to mention for our company, even for the entire earth is a huge number. .

When Liu Peiqiang heard this, he couldn't help but smile.

He just remembered that Qin Yi, the big boss, once he decides to do something, he will not care how much he needs to spend, anyway, he is rich, and he is rich enough to rival the country.

Trillions may seem like a lot, but the process of transforming Mars will definitely be very long. It won't happen overnight. I don't think it will take decades to transform Mars at all.

For decades, even hundreds of trillions are nothing to us. What's more, the entire earth is developing into interstellar space, and the wealth created in the future will increase exponentially.

Just like the wealth and knowledge created by our earth now, it is more than the synthesis in history. Once the earth enters the interstellar space age, it will usher in a big explosion of wealth and a big explosion of knowledge again.

Qin Yi smiled and said that he is very confident in transforming Mars, and he has a longer-term vision, seeing the future development and changes.

We occupy Mars now, and there will be no other people's share in the future. Anyway, there is time, we can slowly transform it, and then we can occupy a living planet alone.

The higher the number of transformation costs calculated now, the better. When the time comes, other countries will be invited to transform Mars together. If they can't afford the funds, then don't blame us. Whoever transforms Mars will belong to whoever.

A planet of life is priceless, it cannot be measured by money.

Qin Yi seems to have something to say, and he already has his own plans in mind.

Lin Fang, help me make an appointment with Li Jun and Zhao Guoliang. They said that they are discussing the transformation of Mars together. In addition, I will sort out the relevant information, especially the cost of this transformation.
