When Li Renzhe was training, he felt that what he ate was bad enough. Now here, most of the diet is specially processed compressed food. There is no need to talk about the taste, it can only be used to fill his stomach.

This is mainly because the cost-effectiveness of transporting vegetables, fruits, or ordinary meat to the moon is too low.

In addition, life is forbidden to use high-temperature stoves to prevent any possible danger.

Therefore, the practical ones are the special compressed foods brought from the ground. There are two botanists in the experimental area who are the most popular. They cultivated tomatoes in the laboratory, but because the planting area is very limited, they can be eaten by humans every day. There are only a few of them, and they have to go through a series of radiation tests before they can be eaten.

What Li Renzhe regretted so much was that he brought personal belongings when he came here, instead of some fresh fruits and vegetables, even dried fruits and vegetables were fine.

Also, work is tiring.

He has to walk from the living area to the laboratory every day, the distance is about one kilometer, and he has to walk for a while, because the gravity of the moon is different from that of the earth, so he needs to "bounce" in a spacesuit.

At the beginning, it was very novel and interesting, but after more times, I felt very tired, and I missed the feeling on the earth.

The laboratory can also rest, but Li Renzhe still insists on going back to the living area to sleep, because the laboratory is very lonely, the number of people in several laboratories does not exceed ten, and the experimental cabins are not linked together. In the experimental cabin, people feel a special kind of loneliness, and there is no way to use communication to communicate at all. It seems that they have been abandoned by the whole world, or that the end is coming, and only they are left alone.

In short, life on the moon is not very good. Li Renzhe is gradually getting used to it, but he still misses the feeling on the earth.

"Ah~~"

In the end, all the anguish in my heart turned into a lament.

Zhao Yi patted him on the shoulder and said, "Lao Li, I understand you."

"You understand?" Li Renzhe rolled his eyes, "What do you understand? You can try to work here too? Don't say it's too long, just a week."

"Haha~~"

Zhao Yi said with a smile, "If I had the chance, I would really like to come, but unfortunately, I'm busy with work, and it doesn't make sense for me to work on the moon."

Li Renzhe said depressedly, "Anyway, I will definitely not come next time, I was really tricked by you."

"How about you go back with us?"

"I'm not going back."

"Oh?"

Li Renzhe said angrily, "I've been staying here for more than two months, and I'm about to get through it. Now I'm going back, and I give up halfway? It's fine if I didn't come then!"

"It makes sense!" Zhao Yi gave him a thumbs up, suddenly pulled him to the side, and secretly waved at the accompanying reporters.

The reporter pointed the camera at other places clearly.

Zhao Yi put down the big backpack behind him, and handed it directly to Li Renzhe, "Don't complain, hurry up, take these to your dormitory, and keep them secret."

"Ah? What?" Li Renzhe opened the backpack curiously, and saw that there were bread, sausage, dried meat, dried fish, compressed instant noodles, dried vegetables, etc., and even a bag of oranges.

There was a large pile of industrial food on the ground that he wouldn't even look at a few times, but his eyes glowed. He looked around and hurried away with his bag.

Zhao Yi smiled and watched Li Renzhe turn the corner. Of course he knew what is the most precious thing in the life of the moon base.

fresh food!

It’s not that there is no food on the moon base, but that the food tastes bad. They are all specially made compressed food. It is enough to fill the stomach, but it is definitely not very delicious. It is not easy to bring ordinary food from the ground. , mainly because ordinary food takes up too much space, and preservation is also very difficult.

For example, fresh fruits and vegetables.

When fresh fruits and vegetables are transported to the moon, they will deteriorate within two days, so fresh food is not considered at all in the transportation of goods.

Even ordinary food on the ground is not easy to transport. To transport food to the living area, it needs to be transported in a closed way. The transport ship must be docked with the cabin of the living area, because the temperature and radiation of the cabin outside the living area must be considered. And other factors, the process is a bit complicated, because of this, most of the delivered food is special compressed food, and the worst is the food with a long shelf life.

Bread, vegetables, and fruits can only be transported in small quantities by transport ships to the moon.

Li Renzhe left very quickly, and came back very quickly. It could be seen that his mouth was full of things, and his mental state looked different.

He walked over and whispered, "The orange is a bit sour!"

"roll!"

Zhao Yidao, "I carried it all the way for you, and the spaceship also transported some, but there were very few brought over, and the Xuanhuang could not be docked. It would be nice if other people could get an orange."

"Haha~~ Just kidding!" Li Renzhe's mood became very good.

Reporters came to shoot again.

This time the reporter came for Li Renzhe, because Zhao Yi and the senior leaders came to inspect, and there was nothing to interview. They mainly interviewed the moon base. Li Renzhe was also the only microbiologist, and he was also one of the interview targets.

Li Renzhe sat at the center of the interview. He talked about the research on mutated Rhodospirillum, and looked at Zhao Yi proudly, and said, "My research is a mutated bacterium, which can produce oxygen. And it's very efficient."

"The research on the moon side mainly hopes that this mutated bacteria can adapt to the environment of the moon, especially the light, because the light on the moon contains ultraviolet radiation, and this kind of bacteria needs light to survive and reproduce. It's a kind of photosynthesis."

The reporter immediately asked with interest, "Is there any progress in the research?"

Li Renzhe nodded and said, "A lot of progress has been made."

Zhao Yi was a little surprised by this affirmative statement, and he became much more serious.

Li Renzhe continued, "I cultivated several batches, and the first few batches all died, but then I added an antioxidant substance and red algae organisms to the petri dish, and found that some survived and were able to function normally. to reproduce."

"The bacteria that survived and reproduced normally have a very high efficiency of oxygen production, even higher than the original bacteria."

"I think the reason is that they use ultraviolet light to perform more efficient photosynthesis, but I'm not sure about it because there are no detection conditions here."

After Li Renzhe finished speaking, he was asked several questions. He talked about the research on Rhodospirillum mutant, which can allow bacteria to reproduce instead of plants to function.

This is great progress.

Not only the environment of the moon base, but also bacteria will be used in more scenarios in the future, because plants are more demanding on the environment than bacteria, and the death of a batch of bacteria is not distressed. The death of plants cultivated in space is very It's a headache.

After hearing Li Renzhe's words, Zhao Yi was also very interested, and he immediately decided to visit the experimental area.

This decision made other people a little bit embarrassed, but Zhao Yi still insisted on going there, and the casual reporter had no choice but to wear a spacesuit and go with him, along with Li Renzhe and two other people.

Because the filming was still going on, the reporter simply carried the equipment and followed behind Zhao Yi and Li Renzhe.

The base planned to send a car to take them there, but Zhao Yi decided to walk with Li Renzhe to experience Li Renzhe's life on the moon.

They walked out of the living area in spacesuits and walked towards the experiment.

This road is bouncing and bouncing.

Li Renzhe has been on the moon for a long time, and he knows how to walk with the least effort. He takes every step without rushing, and only occasionally takes a big stride.

Zhao Yi, on the other hand, felt the novelty. He hopped and hopped and walked a long distance. It felt very interesting. Later, Li Renzhe simply jumped along with him.

The accompanying reporters chased and took pictures, but the distance was getting farther and farther away.

At this time, the live broadcast switched to the camera of the accompanying reporter, and they saw the two bouncing forward. The TV viewers were still a little surprised, and they heard the accompanying reporter say, "The ones walking in front are academician Zhao Yi and the staff working on the moon base. Professor Li Renzhe Li, a microbiologist."

"Professor Li is committed to cultivating mutant Rhodospirillum that can replace plants in photosynthesis and produce oxygen. Progress in this research—"

"Ula Ula~~"

A lot of introductions from the reporters were automatically ignored by most people. They only knew that the one in front was Zhao Yi, and the other was Li Renzhe.

Li Renzhe, this name is a little strange, but it is definitely no stranger at Yanhua University. Everyone knows that Li Renzhe and Zhao Yi are good friends, and they were classmates in the same dormitory in college.

Now the two went to the moon together, bouncing through spacesuits, playing like teenagers?

"This is true friendship, from the earth to the moon!"

"It's really enviable!"

"They are all real talents. Professor Li went to the moon to study microorganisms, not to mention Academician Zhao."

"I really complied with that sentence, a man is a teenager until he dies!"

"It's still so out of the way when we reach the moon, I love it, I love it! By the way, does this Professor Li have a girlfriend—"

Chapter 721 Space Exploration Foundation

The two big men bouncing and bouncing sound nothing, and seem a little silly, but the background is on the moon, which is completely different.

Many people were very envious watching the live broadcast.

In fact, if they were on the ground, Zhao Yi and Li Renzhe would definitely not be jumping and jumping. They walked this way only because of the low gravity of the moon, but it did arouse the envy of many people, especially those who know their people.

For example, Fan Lei.

On the screen in the hall of the Medical Science Center, a live broadcast of the lunar inspection work was being played, and many people were watching in the hall.

Fan Lei was also one of them. Looking at the two figures in spacesuits in the camera, he couldn't help feeling sour, and shouted at Liu Chengjie, "Brother Liu, I really regret it now. If you go to college It’s time to study hard, and I will also take a master’s degree and a doctorate, maybe I’m the one who’s on the moon now.”

Liu Chengjie smiled and said, "It's hard to say, no one goes to our Medical Science Center."

"That's right, based on my relationship with Zhao Yi!" Fan Lei said with certainty, "It's just Lao Li? No way! At that time, I will be the representative sent by Zhao Yi to the moon, do you remember? I will help Zhao Yi took Fields!"

"That's right!" Liu Chengjie nodded as he listened, as if he agreed with Fan Lei's words, but it didn't make sense to agree with him. What he said was to study hard in school.

Now, it's too late!

Fan Lei never thought about doing scientific research in his life.

Yan Yi was sitting next to Fan Lei, she looked at the time and suddenly said, "Lei, it's almost time, you go pick up the child."

"—!"

"Okay!" Fan Lei looked over sadly. Not only could he not go to the moon, but he couldn't "jump and dance" with Zhao Yi, and there was Yan Yi who cared about children's education by his side.

Yan Yi's educational philosophy is very different from Huang Wenqian's. She will enroll her children in various cram schools, and it is best to let her children start better than others.

In the family formed by Yan Yi and Fan Lei, Fan Lei is the one who has a relatively leisurely job, so Fan Lei often takes care of the baby.

Fan Lei has become a new century daddy.

When driving on the road, Fan Lei couldn't help but miss his single life in the past. At that time, he was able to date all kinds of little girls, and he wanted to do whatever he wanted to do in his free time. Make Zhao Yi envious.

And now uh-

"Hey!"

Fan Lei took a deep breath, but after thinking about it carefully, he did not regret marrying Yan Yi, especially when he saw the child coming out of the kindergarten, he hugged the child vigorously and asked jokingly, "I am happy in the kindergarten today. ?"

"What did the teacher teach?"

"Dancing? Go home and dance and see—"

The child rolled his eyes, as if he was very dissatisfied with him, and said, "Dad, you are so annoying, stop talking, I have to go to swimming lessons!"

"Haha, Dad won't say, don't say—"

This is the daily communication between Fan Lei and his children. He has completely forgotten about the moon and single life, and only the children are the most important.

at the same time.

Zhao Yi and Li Renzhe have already entered the laboratory. The laboratory and the living area are incomparable. The main reason is that the area is too small, and each room is very small. After entering the cabin and disinfecting it, they can finally Take off the spacesuit.

Others, including the reporter, also followed in, but it turned out that the experimental cabin inside was too small, and only one more person could be allowed in, and the reporter was the last one to enter.

The main reason for the small size of the experimental cabin is that the cabin is built on the ground and placed directly. Several experimental cabins are pulled over by a transport ship at one time, unlike the living area that is assembled and built bit by bit.

On the edge of the interior of the cabin, there are a lot of utensils here.

These are the results of Lee In Cheol's work.

When Zhao Yi was going to the experimental platform, he heard Li Renzhe reminded, "Don't go there, put on the protective clothing first."

"—?"

"There are ultraviolet rays!" Li Renzhe pointed to the small window above and said.

Zhao Yi suddenly understood.

This experimental cabin is specially prepared for the study of microorganisms, because bacteria need to be directly exposed to sunlight to adapt to the cosmic environment.

The moon does not have an ozone layer, not even an atmosphere, and ultraviolet rays can directly shine in.

If the skin of the body is directly exposed to sunlight, it will be directly sunburned for a period of time, and even lesions may occur.

Zhao Yi put on the protective clothing before walking over to check the containers containing the bacteria.

Li Renzhe pointed to the two petri dishes on the upper left and said, "These two are the best cultivated. They have split into the third generation and have maintained a stable reproductive capacity."

Zhao Yi took a closer look and found that the color inside was reddish purple. It can be seen from the color alone that the Rhodospirillum has mutated again.

There is a word 'red' in the name of Rhodospirillum, which represents the color displayed by the aggregation of Rhodospirillum, but in fact, it is only slightly red, not pure red, and the color in the petri dish in front of me has already changed. Red and purple, it must be very unusual.

Li Renzhe went to the side to accept the reporter's interview, and introduced the environment of the experimental cabin to the reporter, what needs to be paid attention to in life here, and daily research, etc.

Zhao Yi was observing Rhodospirillum and checked the experimental data on the computer. He found that Li Renzhe was not bragging. He had indeed cultivated Rhodospirillum adapted to the ultraviolet environment. In the two successful culture dishes, Rhodospirilla showed It has a stable reproductive ability, and its oxygen production capacity is more than 50.00% stronger than that on the ground.

This is a very remarkable data.

"These Rhodospirillum bacteria cannot be brought to the ground for the time being, and can only be tested on the moon." Zhao Yi thought for a while and said, "They have adapted to the ultraviolet environment. If they lose the ultraviolet environment, they may die."

"Should we let them breed for a few more generations?" He thought, "For more than three generations, we need to expand the laboratory, increase equipment and testing methods."
