Half-immortal civilization

"Hurry up! The master company has released another news." Zhou Ming pushed open the door of the dormitory.

"Oh, let me tell you, Zhou Ming, it's finally a Sunday and you can't sleep in. Classes will start tomorrow. Besides, you haven't graduated yet, what are you so excited about!" Bai Haiming lazily turned over on the bed body.

"You idiot. The master company is planning to drag Vesta back, and it is holding a press conference for this. Moreover, because there are many other resources, the master company is not going to develop the mineral resources of Vesta in a short time; And to make Vesta a space-level tourist base.

Wow, the gravity on Vesta is only 0.22, almost one-fiftieth of that on Earth, and the escape velocity is only 350 meters per second.Moreover, there are [-]-kilometer-high mountain peaks and various terrains that can only be seen in cartoons and movies. You don’t pay attention to such a wonderful scene! "

"It costs at least 100 million yuan to go to space, and at least 200 million yuan to go to the moon. Can you afford it? This bastard company has developed so fast and is so rich, why doesn't it repay the society.

Besides, Vesta is still in the asteroid belt. According to the time announced by the master company, it will take at least three months before Vesta will come to the vicinity of the earth.Get up early, get up early, sleep! "Bai Haiming muttered, covered himself with a quilt, and went to sleep.

"Hi! You idiot. You don't know that the boss of Gaoshou Company came out of our Qingzhou University. Now, Gaoshou Company has issued a full 2000 places for Qingzhou University. As long as you go to the press conference, you can draw a lottery. Win the lottery The rate is as high as one-fifth. The deadline is 2000 people! First come first served!

Get up quickly.You lazy bastard! "

"Ah! Lottery! I like it! Haha, I said that the master company is not a bastard company that buckles like this. I blamed them." Bai Haiming jumped up from the bed at once. The slippers ran out!

"Hey, you bastard, wait for me! Do you know where the press conference is?"

"Needless to say! All the releases of Gaoshou Company in our school are released in Gaoshou Building! Haha, I'm not an idiot!" Bai Haiming was wearing slippers and sprinting at a speed of [-] meters.Run towards the Gaoshou Building two kilometers away.

Master building.It was the research laboratory of the master company in Qingzhou University, and now it is regarded as an experimental institution with equal shares between the master company and Qingzhou University.For master companies, it is an excellent platform for selecting talents; for schools, it is an iconic building and the cradle of technology.There is already a mottled sign of the big hand holding the planet at the door.But there is a kind of thick maturity.The tenderness of the past is missing.

And now.The Gaoshou building is already overcrowded, of course.Here are the staff and students of Qingzhou University.

At the same time, Gaoshou Company held a press conference simultaneously in the 47 re-divided provinces across the country.Except here at Qingzhou University, every province has 500 places.Such a gap has made many people envious of Qingzhou University, so that Qingzhou University is particularly popular when enrolling students next year—in fact, because of the special care of the master company and other reasons, the current Qingzhou University has become the first in China. A school!Overtake the capital.

At the headquarters of the master company, Yang Peng, whose hair is already a little gray, is the backstage, and the one who presides over the press conference is Yang Peng's grandson, Yang Jianyu.As a beneficiary of the master company's strategy, Yang Jianyu directly inherited his grandfather's position.Of course, ability must also be achieved.In fact, Yang Jianyu graduated from the Shenlan Middle School of the Master Company, and the new generation of the Master Company is taking the lead.

"Mr. Yang, may I ask, how old are you this year? Of course, if it is inconvenient, you can refuse." A female reporter rushed to the front.Although she wasn't pretty, she was considered charming, and it was always hard to refuse a beautiful woman's questions.

"21 years old. In addition, I have been studying with my grandfather for six years." Yang Jianyu is gentle and elegant.

"Wow, thank you. It's amazing. I'm Huang Ying, a reporter from Qingzhou Radio Station.

Mr. Yang, I remember that your company did not hold a press conference when dragging Ceres. Why did the smaller Vesta hold a press conference?This raises a lot of questions. "

Yang Jianyu: "This is very simple. Because Vesta has to be dragged to the space around the earth, it is convenient to land and observe, and it has to be built as an entertainment base. However, Ceres was sent directly to Venus at the beginning, and the process was dangerous.

Next. "

"Hello, Mr. Yang, I'm Li Yang, a reporter from the Qingzhou Popular Science Channel. Your company said that it will turn Vesta into a space entertainment base in a short time. Can you know the details?"

Yang Jianyu: "In fact, the plan to build a space entertainment base has been around for a long time; but it is only recently that Vesta has been built as an entertainment base. According to the plan of the master company, to promote the development of space for mankind, only technology , is far from enough. It is also necessary to develop humanistic thinking. Obviously, tourism and entertainment will be a good way.

Therefore, we are going to develop Vesta as a tourism base.And this is also caused by the unique topography of Vesta.

In addition, what promotes our idea is the special geographical shape on Vesta.

Everyone, please see that a mountain in the middle rises from the ground and is 4 kilometers long; and a circle of ringed mountains around it is 12-[-] kilometers above the ground on average. This is a natural base with a good foundation.We can make a good harbor just by pulling on carbon fiber and sealing film.

According to the plan, such a construction is very simple, and with the current technology, it can be completed in about a month; then everyone will have a playground with an area of ​​about 400 kilometers in diameter.

Here, the gravity is only 0.22; on the earth it is 9.8; we can make this place a playground full of different feelings.Everyone is welcome to visit.With the Huaxia resident card, you will enjoy a daily entertainment fee of 10 yuan; of course, food, drinking water, housing, etc. need to be calculated separately.

Ok, next. "

"Mr. Yang, hello. I'm Wang Yu, a reporter from CCTV." Wang Yu's long hair trembled with excitement. , this Vesta obviously has the possibility of being transformed into a space immigration base. Will your company consider building a space immigration base? The diameter of the habitable area is 400 kilometers, which is almost equivalent to the area of ​​a medium-to-small province in China. If it is well managed, it is enough [-] million people live!"

Now, even Yang Peng raised his head to see this little reporter who dared to think.And Yang Jianyu's eyes were also full of surprise. "Miss Wang has good eyesight."

"Thank you for the compliment." Wang Yu smiled slightly, showing her cute canine teeth.

"On the surface, this plan is completely feasible. With the roof covered, Vesta will become a good spaceport in a short period of time. But there are several problems that cannot be ignored.

First and foremost.Vesta has too little gravity.In such an environment, occasional travel is okay, with a different kind of enjoyment; but if you live for a long time, up to a month, the human body will undergo various changes such as musculoskeletal loosening and atrophy.Seriously, for a long time, that is, more than three months, it may even lead to imbalance in the body and death.So, for the average person, we'll only allow 10 days at most on this.Even the staff must be rotated once a month, and a person can only stay on Vesta for a maximum of 6 months a year, and it must not be consecutive.

Second, is to drink water!There is almost no water on Vesta, we have to import it from outside.A small amount of input is okay, but it cannot be satisfied if a large number of population migrations are to be satisfied.At least, not in the short term.

Third, the industrial base.To develop into a good place to live, there must be a sufficient industrial base.This development time will take at least ten years.Ten years from now, the earth will still be able to meet human needs.After a hundred years, Venus immigration will be possible.

However, it cannot emigrate, but it can be built into a granary for space.It is estimated that three years later, the food production on Ceres will be enough to meet the needs of [-] million human beings.

The last reason is that the structure of Vesta is loose, but it is not particularly strong; especially after a violent collision.Therefore, after we have exhausted the current mineral resources, Vesta will be dismantled and used as mineral resources.Compared to this, space colonization cannot make full use of this precious resource. "

"Thank you for your detailed explanation." (To be continued...)
