I was exposed for mining on Mars

Chapter 36 The window period is about to arrive

Mars, after several days of construction, Luo Xiu has connected the conveyor belts of the copper mine and gold mine to the smelting plant.

However, Luo Xiu has not started the conveyor belt yet because the power has begun to be tight.

Although the wind turbine generator is very powerful, the pressure on Mars is too small. When there is no storm, the wind speed is not enough to support various existing equipment.

If it were Blue Star, there would be no problem in mounting twice as much equipment on this wind turbine.

'Wind power is still too limited on Mars. ’ Luo Xiu originally wanted to build several wind power generation devices before this, but now it seems that wind power generation can no longer keep up with the development speed of the base.

However, before large-scale manufacturing of solar power panels and equatorial projects, Luo Xiu had to find another more efficient energy source.

The ice mining point that is being expanded is what Luo Xiu needs to focus on.

As the number of general-purpose robots continues to increase, more general-purpose robots are participating in the automatic mining of copper and iron ore, and ice mining sites.

The accelerated speed of ice mining also means that more water sources are dissolved, and the electrolyzed hydrogen and oxygen are now enough for Luo Xiu to start the hydrogen-oxygen generator plan.

Compared with wind turbine generators that rely on the sky for food, hydrogen and oxygen generators can provide very stable and efficient power energy as long as there is sufficient supply.

"Click."

When Luo Xiu returned to the base, the ground in the base had been completely leveled by the universal robot, and a thin iron plate was laid on it.

In addition to the changes to the ground of the base, all the unfinished parts of the various factories located inside the base that were left unfinished due to the previous shortage of resources have also been repaired by general-purpose robots.

When you look at the current base from the gate, it has a slightly sci-fi style.

The viewers watching the live broadcast on Blue Star also saw all the changes in the Mars base through the Zhurong following Luo Xiu.

‘Is it finally all done? The sides of the suspected smelting plant have also been sealed up. ’

‘This looks a bit like an alien. ’

‘By the way, the people upstairs are just watching, aren’t you worried at all? This alien must know that the Zhurong is transmitting signals back to Blue Star. He must not be afraid of us at all if he does not cut off the signal. He may even reach Blue Star soon. ’

'What's the use of worrying, you can't stop him. As I said last time, if he comes, I will definitely be a miner. ’

‘It turns out it’s you, the traitor again! Have you ever thought about being a translator or something? ’

‘Upstairs, I don’t understand alien languages, so how can I be a translator? ’

Most of the comments on Blue Star's network are ridiculing. This is also related to the fact that they have watched too much from Zhuronghao, and it is like watching TV dramas every day, without any fear of aliens who may pose a huge threat.

Of course, although everyone freely criticizes things on Mars on the Internet, they also know that Blue Star is a little different now.

What they can most observe is that various materials around them are being tightened, especially 'strategic materials', which are being purchased and hoarded in large quantities.

In addition to supplies, nuclear weapons that were originally used only for deterrence were also manufactured in large quantities in places where ordinary people could not see them. When various countries want to be the first to communicate, they do not forget what they need to do if communication fails.

Although this weapon probably won't pose much of a threat to aliens on Mars, it is also the most powerful weapon that humans on Blue Star can possess.

Even the space center where Cao Guolin is located has been dragged with two nuclear bombs. They will be lifted off in a spacecraft in an emergency to resist alien invasion.

Of course, although these things were transported, Cao Guolin did not hope that they would be used one day.

"Chief Engineer, that thing has been sent to the warehouse." Cao Guolin's assistant, after the special items were transported into the warehouse, quickly returned to the control center to report to Cao Guolin.

"Yeah." After the special items were delivered, Cao Guolin just made a brief contact and returned to the control center, instead of going to the warehouse with the goods. After all, although this thing was sent to the space center, it was not under Cao Guolin's control.

"By the way, how was the training with Luo Faqi and Xue He?" When the assistant sat down, Cao Guolin turned to him and asked him another question.

Previously, Luo Faqi and Xue He were sent for training after they arrived at the space center. Since these two had never received such intense training, Cao Guolin would check on them every day.

"Professor Luo Faqi has adapted very well today. Principal Xue He is still a little behind, but it is much better than the past few days." Cao Guolin's assistant asked about the situation there every day, so he always had a good grasp of the training ground. first-hand information.

"As long as they can keep up with the pace, it's okay. The launch window is in one month, so they still have time."

After continuous calculations by the space center, the mission to Mars can be launched as soon as one month later. One month is enough time for these two people to train.

After all, this launch is different from the previous ones. The mission does not require every personnel to have the same physical fitness as the astronauts. In addition to staying in the spacecraft, they do not need to go out to work.

In order to prevent emergencies that may occur on the spacecraft, a third professional astronaut will be equipped to handle them.

Now for Cao Guolin and the space center, the most important thing is not the training of the three people, but the production and assembly of the rocket.

Judging from China's current rocket inventory, transporting supplies for three people to survive for a year and a half is actually not a big problem. But in order to prevent unexpected situations from happening, Cao Guolin felt that it was necessary to launch two more ships to deal with various situations.

It will take another day for the rocket parts promised by Petrov to be delivered to the space center, and then it will be confirmed whether these parts can be assembled into a complete rocket. If that doesn't work, the only way to do this is to use a carrier carrying a nuclear bomb to modify and launch it.

For the space center, the mission can be said to be very urgent, but no one, including Cao Guolin, had any complaints. After all, this matter is of great importance, and the success of the mission is related to the future of the entire country of China and even the entire Blue Star.

"Hey, Cao."

While Cao Guolin was communicating with his assistant, Petrov happened to walk over from outside the control center and asked, "Why can't we use the road leading to the warehouse?"

Just now, Petrov wanted to go to the training ground from the road in front of the warehouse, but he was stopped by the personnel at the space center, saying that some important mission was being carried out.

"The warehouse is being renovated. Please sit down for a while." Cao Guo pointed to the chair next to him and said to Petrov.

"Renovation? Okay." Cao Guolin's answer made Petrov feel that it was too perfunctory, but since the other party said so, Petrov, who was under Cao Guolin's territory, could only shrug and sit down.

Thanks to Xu Ditai for the reward~
