   Chapter 1414 The pace of exploring the universe will not stop

【Revision】

Speaking of this, Wu Hao smiled calmly: "Of course, in addition to the time it takes, you have to prepare a considerable amount of money to buy round-trip tickets. The price of each ticket is not too high, and most people do Affordable.

  It’s not like it is now. Space travel is only the patent of the rich. Our goal is to give ordinary people the opportunity to travel in space. "

   "Wu Sheng, can you tell us how much the price of each ferry ticket costs?" Dong Qian, a reporter from Fengwang Technology, immediately asked with interest.

  This question has also aroused the interest of several other reporters, and they have cast inquiries.

Upon seeing this, Wu Hao = laughed and said: "According to our current technology and cost control, we are confident that the price of each ticket will be around 700,000 to 800,000 US dollars. As we are in the recovery of rockets and spacecraft As the technology of reuse becomes more and more mature, the price will fall further, and will eventually be controlled at around US$100,000 to US$200,000."

   "The price is also very high, I am afraid it is difficult for ordinary people to afford it." Huang Zhigang said a little disappointed.

  Haha, Wu Hao smiled: "According to the current technology, this price is already the limit we can control.

  Compared with the ticket prices of several other companies or other spaceships, our ticket prices are already very cheap.

  Although this price is a bit higher for most of us ordinary people. But for many middle-class families, it is not unaffordable.

  In the future, we will continue to explore in this area, and strive to further reduce the price of ferry tickets to the range that most of us can accept and afford. "

"Mr. Wu, we understand that in addition to manned space projects, you are also developing your own space station, as well as lunar cities and other projects. In this regard, can you tell us more about it. In addition, does this mean that your future The focus of development has shifted from the general consumer market to the commercial aerospace field." Jiang Nan changed the topic and raised a very specific question.

Hearing this question, Wu Hao sorted out his thoughts, and then replied: "Yes, we are doing research on the space station. The inflatable and inflatable space experiment module we launched before is an important part of the space station project, which aims to verify The application of inflatable inflatable technology in the construction of space stations, the exploration of alien planets, and the construction of research stations and settlements.

  We plan to build an international commercial scientific research space station open to the world in space in the next five years or so, and this space station will be open to the world. Mainly undertake scientific research, commercial project research, and main functions such as space tourism.

  The entire International Commercial Science Research Space Station will accommodate eight to twelve people for daily researchers. During the rotation period, it will accommodate up to sixteen to eighteen people. By then, it will become the world's largest space station in orbit.

  Moreover, this space station will be self-sufficient in some materials and establish a complete space ecosystem suitable for human survival.

  At that time, the space station will be able to provide food to researchers and tourists inside the space station, such as fruits and vegetables, as well as grain, and even meat protein.

  This also means that we can operate this international commercial scientific research space station at a lower cost. It also means that it will lay a solid foundation for our deep space exploration and the exploration of other planets.

  When the relevant conditions are ready, we will establish a commercial scientific research station on the moon, and accommodate about ten scientific researchers to live and research here.

  This is the first phase of the project, and the second phase of the project will be expanded on this basis. In addition to adding a series of basic living facilities, it will also increase the number of personnel that our research station can accommodate to about 30 to 40 people.

  The third phase of the project will continue to expand on this basis, so that it can accommodate a permanent population of more than one hundred people.

  At that time, the entire lunar ground research station will be self-sufficient. By extracting fresh water from the lunar soil, as well as related energy, fresh water supply for the entire base, as well as electricity supply. And we will also build multiple plant factories on the surface of the moon to achieve complete food self-sufficiency.

  If all goes well and the operation is normal, we will also try to use the resources on the moon to build a truly permanent large-scale settlement, that is, a lunar city.

  By then, this lunar city will be able to accommodate more than a thousand people, and will become a bridgehead for us humans to explore deep space, as well as a space station for entering and leaving the earth. "

Speaking of this, Wu Hao spread his hands, looked at the surprised people, smiled and said: "Of course, such a brilliant project, close to us is definitely not enough, this requires more people to join in. Everyone can work together to realize this ambitious plan.

And this project will also become an important preliminary preparation and exercise for our exploration of deep space. If this project is successful, then we have the confidence to realize the long-term residence of mankind on our neighboring planet Mars, and even establish a real Mars. city.

  In addition to Mars~www.readwn.com~ there are many secrets in the entire solar system waiting for us to explore. For example, several moons of Saturn, several moons of Jupiter, Pluto, Ceres and so on.

  Only with such a step-by-step development can we have hope, and it is possible to truly send mankind out of the solar system to explore the broader galaxy and the boundless universe. "

   "What you said is so far away, can our generation really achieve it?" Jiang Nan couldn't help asking.

Wu Hao smiled and shook his head: "Compared to a universe that is more than 10 billion years old, our human life span is too short. Such a huge universe is obviously not within our own generation or a few generations. Yes. This requires our human beings to work hard and continue to explore, and it is possible to explore more unknowns.

  Like the ocean, even now that the technology is so advanced, we can’t guarantee that we know enough about the ocean. We must know that human beings have entered the ocean for thousands of years. From the earliest canoe to the great sailing to the prosperous ocean activities, we still don't know everything about this vast ocean.

  Compared with this ocean, the universe is even more vast. Therefore, this requires us to explore from generation to generation. This road is destined to be long and difficult. But regardless of this, our exploration of the universe will never stop. "
