Chapter 745 Arc Light, Master the Core Technology
Due to the particularity of the Moon City, apart from the space workers who came to build the Moon City, the first batch of immigrants from Earth must also participate in the later construction of the Moon City.

And just like the cities on the earth, this construction process is going on forever. Even if the original plan has been completed, it is time to update and upgrade the part that was originally built, so we have to continue.

Therefore, construction-related workers and jobs will always be needed.

Even Dong Chen and his group of the first batch of moon survivors who moved in as experiments are the same. Some of them will do supporting work for the construction.

Just like Dong Chen, he started the bulldozer.

Today Dong Chen and No. [-] had just left the house when they ran into Lianru who was running towards him covered in sweat at the pace of a devil, and said, "Brother Dong, Sister Yiyi, is it up to you to drive the bulldozer again today?"

Seeing the person coming, it was Lian Confucianism, No. [-] just nodded and answered, while Dong Chen said, "That's right, it's our shift today, look at your sweaty body, how long have you been running?"

"I've already run halfway, and there's still half to run," Lian Ruri heard Dong Chen panting in front of him, "The moon is good, but it's too bad to be forced to exercise every day. It's simply the nemesis of nerds."

"Haha, exercising is also good, otherwise it won't be fun if you have osteoporosis and muscle atrophy. By the way, Xiao Xing, don't you run together every day?" Dong Chen asked with a smile.

"In order to mobilize the enthusiasm of the movement, the community hospital set up a No. 1 reward. This brat has already run to the front, and he doesn't know to wait for me at all." It seems that this kid is young, but he runs really fast.

"Brother Dong, Sister Yiyi, I have to hurry up to catch up, otherwise I might have to contribute a point to that kid today."

"Okay, okay, let's go."

Seeing Lian Ruyue running away with devilish steps again, Dong Chen laughed again.

Due to the relatively small gravity of the moon, you must have a special posture when running on the moon. Otherwise, if you still run according to the posture on the earth, you will have to stumble.

After these few days of exploration by everyone, everyone has a set of exercise postures that suits them, and the running method of practicing Confucianism is to stride and jump. The posture looks very funny, so every time Dong Chen sees When he was running, he looked like he had seen a devil.

Of course, Dong Chen's running posture is not very good-looking.

In terms of good looks, it is still number one. Her calculation ability is super strong, so she quickly adapted to the environment of the moon, which made her run similar to the earth, and even the way she strides looks more elegant.

After Dong Chen and Lian Ruyue become more familiar with the gravity and environment of the moon after a period of time, they may be able to adjust their running posture and look better.

However, it may be that he is already completely familiar with his own magical steps, and he can't change it even if he wants to.

"Let's go, goddess of bulldozers, let's go too, and then drive our bulldozers."

After Lian Ruri left, Dong Chen greeted No. [-] to get on the smart car, and then went straight to the construction site.

Fortunately, No. [-]'s holographic projection is not here, and it is only controlling a security robot. Otherwise, Dong Chen would definitely see No. [-] rolling his eyes.

When it comes to driving the bulldozer, Dong Chen is still to blame. He wants to drive the bulldozer to roam the world on the moon, and No. [-] is now his guard, so it is natural to be around him, so I can only choose this one. .

Number One still remembers the way the people at the scene looked at her when she chose this profession that day, which gave her an extra nickname by the way: Goddess of Bulldozers.

And Dong Chen's deliberate address every time.

If it weren't for the law of intelligence and safety not allowing her to hurt Dong Chen, Dong Chen would definitely be full of hair by now.

And the bulldozer they want to drive is not the bulldozer on earth, just because it looks similar in function, and then people give it another name.

In fact, what they pushed was not simple soil, but all minerals and fuels, all of which could be used by the Arclight Group's lunar construction plan.

Many people already know that there are more rare metal reserves on the moon than on the earth, especially in resource-rich areas, where the shovel is full of minerals.

There are hundreds of known minerals on it, and several of them are not found on the earth, which confirms its important position in the development of human civilization.

There are three main types of rocks on the moon. The first type is lunar sea basalt rich in iron and titanium; the second type is anorthosite, which is rich in potassium, rare earths and phosphorus, and is mainly distributed in the lunar highlands; It is a breccia composed of debris particles of 0 to 1 mm, and contains rich metal mineral resources such as chromium, nickel, magnesium, and silicon.

Taking iron as an example, only the 5-centimeter-thick sand on the lunar surface contains hundreds of millions of tons of iron, and the entire lunar surface has an average of 10-meter-thick sand.The iron on the surface of the moon is not only extremely rich, but also easy to mine and smelt.Because the iron on the moon is mainly iron oxide, as long as the oxygen and iron are separated, this kind of technology is naturally no problem for the Arc Light Group.

In addition, the Arclight Group also has a way to use lunar soil and rocks to make cement and glass.In addition, on the surface of the moon, the content of aluminum is also very rich.

These mineral resources and their industrial products are all in great demand for the Arclight Group's lunar construction plan.

Once their output catches up, the cost of the group's moon construction plan will be further reduced, and it can even be fed back to the group's other construction plans, sold to other countries on the earth, and so on.

In addition to these mineral resources for construction, there is also an important energy fuel that has just been put into use a few days ago, that is helium-3.

The total reserves of helium-3 in the world do not exceed 100 kilograms, and most of them are formed by the decay of tritium in nuclear warheads. Even if the helium-3 decayed by tritium in deep-sea gas wells and volcanic gas is added, the world’s annual maximum is only 10 kilograms. 20-[-] kg can be obtained.

Even if this "yield" is used for scientific research, it seems stretched, so how can it be used for nuclear fusion fuel to generate electricity.

And equivalent to the rare reserves on the earth, helium-3 reserves are huge on the moon. At least 100 million tons of helium-3 are embedded on the surface of the moon. This number, these lunar soils only need to be heated to a suitable temperature, and more than 90% of the helium-3 will be released.

It just so happens that the moon is also an excellent place to "smelt" helium-3. The environment here is high vacuum, low gravity, high temperature, and large temperature difference, which is just right for heating the lunar soil and implementing helium-3 separation.

However, with so many reserves and such good conditions, scientists all over the world can only be envious, because they... have not mastered the core technology.

Still didn't get both.

One is that the controllable nuclear fusion cannot be done, and the other is that the low-cost moon flight capability is not good.

But the Arclight Group is a model of mastering core technologies, and there are... a lot of core technologies.

There is no problem with controlled nuclear fusion technology, and no problem with low-cost lunar voyages.

Even mastered the core production area, the smelter was built directly on the moon, next to the resource-rich area.
