Minke's black technology

Chapter 455 Jupiter Uplink

While everyone was busy with the colonization and development of Mars, the foot pot chicken quietly sent a research ship to the orbit of Jupiter, and they planned to set the colonization target on the satellites of Jupiter.

There are about 165 satellites in the solar system, but only 7 of them have atmospheres.

And among these 7 satellites, there are six satellites belonging to Jupiter, including Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto, Callisto, and Ganymede. There are planets suitable for space colonization.

The first thing they came into contact with was Io, but basically all of them were craters, and they were craters with a depth of hundreds of kilometers. A large amount of low-viscosity liquid flowed out of it, and the main components were liquid sulfur and silicate. .

There are also some ordinary mountains and lakes of molten sulfur, and a lot of sulfur and other compounds waiting, making this moon like a hellish scene.

After confirming that Io is uninhabitable, the foot pot chicken immediately changed the research target.

This time their luck was pretty good. The second target was Europa, which had a lot of liquid water on it, and it was the planet with the most water resources besides Blue Star.

The presence of water means that there is likely to be life. Even if the water is covered by a thick layer of ice, humans believe that Europa is the second planet with life besides the blue star.

After the investigation of the spacecraft of the foot pot chicken, it is believed that Europa is a mild world. Even though the surface is covered by ice with a thickness of up to 100 kilometers, its bottom is an ocean.

According to the investigation of the spacecraft, Europa also has a planetary magnetic field, so that its atmosphere can be well preserved. At the same time, it shows that its internal layered structure has a metal core, which is similar to the blue star.

But its surface is all covered with ice, so its appearance is extremely smooth. Looking from space, Europa looks like a glass ball, with a thick layer of ice on the outside and a lot of liquid inside. water.

Because Europa has water resources, the foot pot chicken attaches great importance to it, and specially sent personnel to the surface to investigate the situation, and was very pleased to find that, in addition to the extremely cold surface temperature, the planet is actually even bigger than people imagined warmth.

In addition, people have also discovered that the oxygen in the atmosphere of Europa is very sufficient. It is because the oxygen purity is too high that humans cannot breathe it directly. astronaut.

However, this can be regarded as a major advantage. After all, even on a planet with conditions like Mars, if there is not enough oxygen, it will not be able to survive for a long time.

Europa already has the two major conditions of oxygen and water, and the remaining difficulty is that the temperature of the planet is too low, which is around tens of degrees below zero all year round.

"This is easy to solve!" Li Maoye said at the Meow Star Conference: "If you want to reach the temperature for human survival, you can put special algae and bacteria on that planet, and they will multiply soon, and eventually spread all over the planet. , and provide a lot of carbon dioxide!"

This kills two birds with one stone. While increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide to increase the greenhouse effect, it can also reduce the oxygen in the air by 100%. As the planet's atmosphere becomes thicker, it will block the light reflected from the surface and eventually transform for thermal radiation.

Europa is the brightest satellite in the solar system. It is precisely because the ice layer on its surface is too smooth that a large part of the sun's light is reflected instead of being converted into heat and preserved.

If there is enough atmosphere and carbon dioxide, this situation will definitely be reversed, raising the temperature of the entire planet to more than ten degrees.

"The only concern is that when the planet's temperature rises, the 100-kilometer-thick layer of ice on its surface will melt away, and then the entire planet will become a vast ocean..."

This is the same as the movie "Future Water World". Human beings can only build floating island cities in the ocean, and then drift around to find food resources.

However, compared to the original cold and dead world, a planet full of water is more suitable for human survival. However, flower growers do not have the energy to develop so many planets at the same time. Just Mars and many asteroids are enough for rabbits to reproduce for hundreds of years. No need to rush to transform Europa into a water planet.

But the relevant departments didn't think so. After they learned that Li Maoye had this kind of planetary transformation technology, they immediately sent someone over to ask for relevant information.

When they learned that this kind of bacteria and algae can quickly adapt to various extreme harsh conditions, and can reproduce in large numbers in places with water, and then produce organic matter and oxygen, they quickly began to manufacture tests in the laboratory.

"First solve the air composition and organic matter, and then be able to grow various low-level organisms on it, so that the environment of a planet can be completely remodeled very quickly." The experts reported after analysis.

All in all, after mastering this planetary transformation technology, it is very simple to make a planet full of life, as long as there are basic conditions such as water and atmosphere on it.

I don't know what private affairs the rabbit and the foot pot chicken have. Anyway, this technology was quickly learned by the neon country, and after a series of negotiations and exchange of benefits, the foot pot chicken finally got the right to use related technology products as it wished.

To put it simply, the foot pot chicken has the ability to transform the planet on Europa, and this transformation method is very simple, much easier than reshaping the natural environment of Mars.

They only need to continuously produce a large number of special bacteria and algae, and then use the spacecraft to transport them to Europa for spreading, and the way of spreading is very trouble-free, and only need to send a large number of drones to complete a large area. .

"It is estimated that these bacteria and algae will be able to function within a few years, and the average temperature of Europa's planet will rise to a level suitable for human habitation in more than ten years."

Experts have made simulations and speculations based on the data, and they are very optimistic about the reconstruction project of Europa.

In fact, changes have been happening silently. According to the data fed back from the observation station built by the foot pot chicken on the surface of Europa, special bacteria and algae have been multiplying. They completely ignore the low temperature environment. As long as there is water and air, they will Can grow rapidly.

The only problem is that after the temperature of the planet's atmosphere rises, it will take a long time for Europa's surface ice to melt, and it is likely to last for several years, and it is very possible that it will not melt completely for decades.

"At that time, a strange phenomenon will form. The temperature of the atmosphere has risen to more than ten degrees, but the ice layer on the surface still exists. We can only rely on bacteria and algae to melt these ten-thousand-year ice layers!"

"There is another shortcut, which is to sell ice cubes to space colony cities. We can lift a large amount of ice cubes into space through the anti-gravity engine, and then use the spaceship to drag them to the delivery address..."

This idea is very groundbreaking. The gravity on Europa is much smaller than that of Blue Star, so an anti-gravity engine with the same power can lift more weight, and you can even place an anti-gravity engine directly on the ice, and then run smoothly. It can lift a block of ice the size of an asteroid into space.

If the Meow Star Group is willing to develop special equipment for this purpose, it is estimated that the work of selling ice can be made easier. It is entirely possible to shoot lasers at the surface of the ice in the sky, cut out the ice, and then use the anti-gravity engine to blow it away. ascend to outer space.

At the same time, the space transport ship can pick up and deliver the goods very quickly, making the whole thing like an assembly line.

However, there are not many places that lack water in space. At least enough water can be found on many asteroids, and even air is a common thing.

Many space colonization cities built on asteroids will not need to purchase additional water resources. In the asteroid belt and comet belt in space, water is extremely common. Only Mars, which was once rich and experienced There is a need for a planet that lost a lot of water after the cataclysm.

Therefore, the biggest buyer of Europa's ice is Mars. There are already hundreds of colonial cities on it, and each city has at least a few hundred thousand people. Therefore, solving water resources is very important for these colonial cities.

As we all know, Mars at this time has long been occupied by a large number of rabbits, and the colonial cities on it are basically built by rabbits, and the colonial cities using biological construction technology are very sensitive to water.

If sufficient water resources are provided, the difficulty of building a Mars colony city will be much lower, and the cost will not be worth mentioning.

"So this is a win-win situation?" Li Maoye asked.

Ms. Qin from the relevant department laughed at this and said nothing, but judging from her expression, the rabbit should have made a lot of money from the chicken. As for helping Mars solve the water resource problem, it was just a side benefit.

In fact, there are chickens on the side to help check for gaps and make up for leaks, and the space development of florists has become much easier. Anyway, Europa is not an important planet. Except for a little more water, other resources are very scarce.

Therefore, the rabbit has no ambitions for it. It doesn't matter if the entire planet is given to other people. Anyway, for a rabbit who has mastered the speed of light navigation technology, the universe is very large.

The Space Development Cooperation Group has no objection to this. After all, all the planets in the solar system belong to all human beings, basically adhering to the principle of whoever develops who owns. The foot pot chicken can devote energy and resources to the development of Europa. For human beings This is a good thing.

The reason why the foot pot chicken did not compete with others for Mars is entirely because this planet has long been a paradise for rabbit colonization, and even the bald eagle cannot intervene in it, so it will find another way to find Europa as its own colony planet .

Inspired by this, the bald eagle and the bear also began to give up competing for Mars and turn to study the feasibility of transforming other planets, but this is not something that can be done overnight.

At the same time, they also have to consider how to obtain the authorization of planetary transformation technology from the Meow Star Group. Mao Xiong may have no problem, but it is relatively difficult for Bald Eagle.

According to the principle of the space development cooperation group, if members want to obtain the support of space technology, they have to exchange equivalent technology, but Meow Star Black Technology has never had the kind of blue star technology that can be equal.

In addition, the bald eagle does not want to pay too much for this. After all, the foot pot chicken can also be used, and it also wants to take this opportunity to obtain the authorization of this technology.

So Bald Eagle provided Meow Star Group with a very large government purchase, mainly for equipment related to large databases and intelligent monitoring systems, intending to update social security monitoring equipment and systems for the entire country, and even willing to purchase a batch of machines Police are used to fight criminals.

According to past practice, this order will definitely not fall into the hands of the Meow Star Group. No matter whether there is a backdoor program in the equipment they sell, they will definitely be framed, or even slandered out of thin air.

However, this order did not cause any waves on the Bald Eagle side, and no media person jumped out to say that this kind of system violates human rights or that they will definitely be controlled by the Meow Star Group and so on.

No one thinks that using big data to analyze a person's criminal tendencies is against political correctness, and even praises this system as an effective way to reduce the crime rate and stop criminal behavior before people make mistakes.

Li Maoye knew that the bald eagle had spent a lot of blood to please the Meow Star Group in order to obtain planetary transformation technology, but I don't know why they installed a large database and an intelligent monitoring system. Could it be that the sun came out from the west?
Regarding this kind of problem, Zhou Lin felt that he knew the reason very well, "The problem of national management costs!"

It turns out that as the economy continues to decline, even if there are cats and black technology that continue to survive, various domestic problems of Bald Eagles will occur frequently, especially the high crime rate, which not only affects the poor, but also the rich. People are also starting to feel unsafe.

In the past, it was possible to build rich communities through high costs, but with the rapid development of technology, the distance between people has become far away, and it has also been drawn very close.

Once there is a conflict, it is already very difficult to stay in a relatively quiet area.

Therefore, in order to create a relatively safe environment for itself, and at the same time to prevent population outflow and reduce social management costs and other factors, the bald eagle had to cross the river by groping the rabbit.

"Cut! It's just a mere imitation!" Li Maoye was not very optimistic about the bald eagle's approach.

He believes that the best result is to make the Bald Eagle regime a little bit more stable. As for completely changing the entire society and reducing the crime rate to near zero, it is better to ban guns first.

Perhaps banning guns is useless. It is estimated that there will be a large number of black technology weapons in the future, such as owl rabbit mechs, cyborg bodies, and heterogeneous parasites.

Now the Meow Star Group is strictly controlling and preventing these black technology products from leaking out, so other countries of Blue Star have not been troubled, but once the restrictions on related products are released, things will be completely different...
