Half-immortal civilization

(Before the beginning of this chapter, let me tell you that creatures don’t understand, if you laugh at it, then the goal will be achieved...)
But in space, thousands of scientists are all engaged in exciting and intense work.Studying extraterrestrial life is definitely the dream of all scientists; and now, not only have such opportunities, but also can enter space research, and there are considerable rewards.

In fact, if possible, these experts would rather lose money, and these experts are willing to come here for research.

Among them, Qiao Ping from the Capital Institute of Life Sciences is undoubtedly a representative figure.The gray-haired one is already in his 60s, but he is still active at the forefront.But this time, he stepped forward even more, and when faced with possible dangers, he actually said: People who are half buried in the ground, if they can make contributions to mankind before they die, it will be worth it.

When entering space, the first thing everyone has to do is to enter the cabin of the space pilot, and then completely cut off from the outside world.Even the air and drinking water here need to be heated to more than 500 degrees when they are discharged.Because no one knows what kind of disasters these extraterrestrial life can bring to the earth, so they are usually careless.

Of course, the experts who entered here really put life and death aside-some exaggeration.But adventure is a given.

The second thing to do is to check the bodies of all astronauts, including 20 female employees.These people have been in contact with external life forms for at least ten days. If it is a common virus, etc., they will basically have certain symptoms.Especially now that the physical fitness of pilots has been reduced to an extremely low level, and their resistance is unprecedentedly low. Studying the conditions of these pilots will help everyone to make the most direct judgment on the danger of alien life.

And here, Qiao Ping and his colleagues set up a laboratory, which is to measure the dangerous situation after the encounter between alien life and life on earth.The objects of the experiment include more than a dozen typical representative creatures, including insects and mice.In addition, it will simply determine the molecular composition, mineral elements, structural characteristics, and life characteristics of these extraterrestrial life; finally, if there is time, it will even include the determination of gene sequences.

"All the astronauts didn't have any physical problems. It can even be said that their bodies are very healthy. It's just that they may be a little weak because of the long-term space travel and the long time of weightlessness; and the mental condition is not good. .

It is recommended that the expert company take these people to the ground for recuperation immediately, which can temporarily prove that these extraterrestrial life forms are simple cellular life forms, and no deadly viruses have been found.Of course, my personal suggestion is to let them live in a sealed place isolated from the world for a period of time even if they are brought back to the ground, so as to really observe the situation.I am afraid of encountering viruses and germs with a particularly long incubation period. "

This is the result of joint verification by many scientists. In fact, it proves that the master company is a little too cautious. Alien life, the current alien life is simply bacteria without any special abilities.However, no one laughed at the master company, this method is the most correct way; everyone has always believed that the master company is a performance of the person responsible for the safety of the earth.

And after getting this news, the Master Company finally took these heroes back to the ground, but they were isolated from the world, just like the kind of people who are not afraid of [-], just in case, and the current research on alien life is just at the beginning.

"Professor Qiao, I have studied all life on Ceres and Mars, and found that life on Ceres is even more advanced than life on Mars. Life on Mars has no nucleus, and their genetic material is scattered on the cell wall. It is a very primitive life. But A skill similar to that of the earth's submarine volcanic life was found in their bodies, which is the ability to use heat and minerals to synthesize organic matter. It is equivalent to the meaning of the existence of plants in nature.

The life on Ceres is relatively responsible. Many microorganisms already have a relatively rudimentary nucleus structure. Although these nucleuses are relatively primitive, they only have simple inheritance and division functions.

In addition, there is a particularly big difference. Ceres may be due to the harsh environment such as temperature, so the cell walls of these microorganisms are particularly thick, and they have a fat-like structure that complex life has, and they have the functions of simple heat insulation and heat preservation.

The cell wall of microorganisms on Mars is very thin, like a thin film, which can maintain communication with the surrounding environment at any time.

Therefore, life on Mars is relatively lively and reproduces quickly.

But all life is like simple microorganisms on the earth, which do not have the ability to harm the human body or any life.

According to what you said, life is constantly evolving with the living environment: because these two planets are relatively simple, life is also very simple, and no complex functions have evolved.For the time being, these lives are as simple and non-toxic as some biota around the volcano. "

"Well, don't take it lightly, this is an alien life after all!" Professor Qiao Ping looked at his student very satisfied.This is one of only three students willing to follow. "However, the experimental mice will be shut aside first, and we will first determine the structure and composition of these lives. Then we will start to determine the gene sequence."

At this time, a student and assistant next to him yelled excitedly: "Professor Qiao, a big discovery, just now the molecular measurement found that Ceres is not a carbon-based life, but a silicon-based life!

We have always guessed that on extremely cold planets, the activity of carbon-based compounds will decrease, and then they will be replaced by silicon-based compounds, thus creating a new life system, the so-called silicon-based life.Unexpectedly, there is such life in our solar system.

Compared with carbon-based life, silicon-based life is more resistant to low temperature.We think 25 degrees is the most suitable temperature, and for silicon-based life, perhaps minus ten degrees is the most suitable temperature.

Great discovery! "

Professor Qiaoping has become accustomed to such discoveries.Because these life in space, like the earth, need moisture and liquid water; but their life composition is challenging the tradition of the earth.Carbon-based life is still on Mars, which is better; but on Ceres, there is already silicon-based life.Although carbon and silicon are very similar in chemical properties, they have different characteristics in the field of life, and this characteristic is mainly the temperature range required for activity.

"Oh, God, many of their DNA are single-stranded, and a small amount has a double-stranded structure; and their double helix is ​​actually the opposite of life on earth!" This is a foreign expert who is determining the gene sequence. expert.

This is a foreign expert; and these days, people don't pay attention to such exclamations—too many!

In fact, this place has become a paradise for these people, and shocking discoveries are made every day.And every discovery here is enough to shock the world.Here are real alien life, completely different from the earth!
