Half-immortal civilization

On the ground, there is a lot of discussion between the strong master company and the somewhat weak India, and everyone is waiting for the ultimatum time.

In space, vigorous construction has already begun.However, compared to the ground, the construction here is still somewhat primitive - a lot of construction requires manpower, large machinery, etc., and it is difficult to transport it to the moon.Even if a master company has a powerful Rising Space Shuttle, it still cannot ignore the high cost.Only three or two large machines can be transported at a time.

Within a radius of dozens of miles, there are all large and small potholes, which are left over from the site selection.After all, if you want to build a real and long-term space base on the moon, you must build the main base of the base below the ground, so that it will be safer.However, the surface of the moon, especially the maria, is a relatively low-lying ground. While rich in resources, it also means that the sand layer on the ground is too thick, and it is difficult to find shallow rocky ground, and it is relatively solid ground.

However, the hard work paid off, and everyone finally found a rock layer with only about one meter of floating soil on the surface. This is more like the ground after the magma has cooled. Obviously, the moon once had a volcanic eruption, but it cooled down later; and it was not hit. , relatively strong.According to the determination, this place has a history of more than 3 million years, which can be called ancient-in fact, such a bottom layer can even be said to be young in the geography of the moon.The oldest lunar surface can be traced back to more than 40 billion years ago!
"Hey! Hey!" Three dark figures kept dragging a carbon fiber rope, behind which was an iron bucket with four wheels, which was filled with sand and gravel.If you want to build a base on the moon, of course you need to dig a pit, and the dug sand and gravel, etc., must be sent far away.It's just that the construction has just started, and a lot of machinery is lacking. Even if it is a master company, if it wants to send as many machinery as possible to the moon in a short period of time, the cost price is too much.

Space construction is definitely not something that can be solved by a few cars like on the ground.If you want to build a complete construction system, electricity alone is the biggest constraint.Therefore, it cannot be solved by transporting a few cars.Especially in this era, a large number of vehicles and machinery are almost driven by electricity. Although this eliminates the need for air, it also increases the need for electricity.However, it is not practical to rely solely on physical battery energy storage for the construction of the moon base of the master company.

This is a real base, and the master company has great ambitions. The whole project is divided into three stages: the first stage is to build a complete livable survival base, which is convenient for everyone to work and live here, including short-term settlement.The second stage is to build a preliminary factory, which can realize low-speed self-replication.The last stage is to build a mature space factory, and the master company will truly enter the space age.

Of course, it’s a bit early to say this, mainly because of the current conditions, it’s really difficult, and most of you work with shoulders and hands.The white spacesuits could no longer be blown clean due to long-term exposure to dust, and now everyone is dusty.

Small carts moved slowly along the tamped ground. Even if the young people from the master company who have accepted the practice are strong and strong, and the gravity of the moon is low, they can still only pull away about 5 tons each time. of rocks.

"One two three, let's go! One two three, work harder!"

Slogans kept ringing in everyone's ears.Although the construction was very difficult, everyone had smiles on their faces.This is, a kind of glory from the heart!

All mud, sand, rocks, etc. must be placed at least 500 meters away, at least not delaying the expansion of the second phase of construction.As for the third stage, it is estimated that large-scale machinery can already be produced on the moon itself, and with strong electric energy, it can be mechanized.But obviously, not now!

"Everyone pay attention, pay attention, the 32nd explosion on the moon will be carried out next, please be prepared. Now the countdown starts, 15 minutes and 32 seconds..."

"Damn, these lunatics, hurry up and lie down under the iron bucket!" Those who drag the iron bucket are in a group of three; and it happens that three people can squeeze under the iron bucket.

Blowing up on the Moon is not the same as on Earth...because there is no air resistance and gravity is very low on the Moon.

The countdown sounded in everyone's ears, and everyone nervously searched for a safe place; if they couldn't find a bunker, they had to run one kilometer away from the explosion site.This is the experience gained in exchange for a few lives that almost died.

However, although it is said to be a countdown, the master company does not use timed explosives, but manual control.The time report is just a means of urging everyone to find a bunker quickly.Without this countdown, it is estimated that after a few hours, all the people would not be able to hide; even those who were hidden at first would probe their brains to check the situation.

"Countdown 7, 6, 5... 0! Are you ready? It's about to explode! Alright, it's about to explode!"

"Boom!!!" The earth roared, and anyone lying on the ground could hear the loud sound. It was very shocking, as if the sky and the earth had exploded.These are explosives customized by the master company, and of course these explosives are purchased.Although the master company is huge, it is impossible to be involved in every industry.But if possible, it is still possible to customize some powerful explosives; and these explosives specially used to develop the moon are no small matter.

The moon without air cannot transmit sound, but the earth can.In addition, the space suits that everyone wears are not sound-proof equipment; so the sound of the explosion can be clearly heard when lying on the ground, and at close range, you can even feel the vibration and mourning of the ground.

"These lunatics! I'm addicted to playing blasting!" Hearing the cheers in the channel, Wang Qingwei smiled helplessly.It wasn't until I hit the moon that I realized how crazy my subordinates were; on Earth, everyone was worried about this and that, and couldn't let go, at most it was just racing.But in space, these bastards let go completely, and honestly, nothing can stop it!
The scene of the explosion was so spectacular that even Wang Qingwei couldn't help cheering together.On this moon with no air resistance and extremely low gravity, the dense dust after the explosion shoots up into the sky, no, it shoots into space—there is no atmosphere on the moon, and it is space when it goes out.All the gravel dust is radioactive, flying in all directions, like a gray-white firework; the billowing dust is constantly rolling upwards, rushing into outer space-of course, the moon still has gravity after all, and it is impossible to rush out; but the height of the smoke and dust , also up to hundreds of meters.This is a scene that cannot be seen on earth anyway.

About a minute later, fine dust began to fall from the sky, and the lower ones fell one after another, hitting the top of the spacesuit, making a rustling sound.Fortunately, the quality of the space suits of the master company is good, and there have been no problems until now.

Ten minutes later, a "mushroom" with a height of more than 10 meters and a width of more than 300 meters lay tightly on the surface of the moon, and the huge amount of dust could not fall for a while; especially the scorching gas produced by the explosion carried the finest particles Some dust, like a ghost, floats out of the moon and into space, like an ethereal gauze, refracting colorful sunlight...
