Xueba's technology tree

Chapter 409 Space Plants
Tao Shengwen heard Li Qihua speculate that it is dark energy that provides energy for life on Ceres.

He asked inexplicably: "How can it be dark energy, how can the organelles of life on Ceres absorb dark energy.

It's incredible that a primitive cell can do something that our human technology can't do. "

Li Qihua saw Tao Shengwen's shocked expression, and he knew it was caused by outsiders' incomprehension of dark energy.

There are no all-round scientists. Most scientists are good at one field. For fields that they are not good at, these scientists have the same knowledge reserve as ordinary people.

Li Qihua immediately explained: "Dark energy is a general term, which refers to a certain type of energy that cannot be detected by our current technology.

This is limited by the development of our human civilization, and it does not conflict with the natural conditions in the universe. "

Li Qihua saw that Tao Shengwen still had a puzzled expression on his face, and he gave an example to explain: "I will give an inappropriate example, but it can vividly illustrate this problem.

It is not because we discovered gravity that water flows downhill.

Instead, we deduce the existence of gravity based on many phenomena such as water flowing down. "

After Tao Shengwen listened to Li Qihua's narration, he clapped his hands and suddenly realized: "I know, it's not that dark energy represents high technology, it's that we haven't explored dark energy yet.

This kind of cell is inherently attracted to some kind of dark energy, and it has no causal relationship with the technology of discovering dark energy. "

Yu Zhenfeng also agreed with Li Qihua's conjecture, and he said in a flat tone: "Then we will prepare the experiment according to this conjecture. If we can really discover some kind of dark energy, it will add one more energy type to our understanding, which will be beneficial to our understanding." Work is also a huge plus.”

Before they were asked to find a way to capture some kind of dark energy, they didn't have the confidence to design an experiment at all.

If there were this level, they would have designed experiments to capture dark energy long ago.

But the current situation is completely different. There is actually a kind of cell that is pulling dark energy.

This makes the dark energy in the surrounding airspace more enriched, and scientists such as Yu Zhenfeng and Li Qihua have the confidence to capture dark energy.

Experiments failed again and again, but none of this dampened the confidence of scientists.

Li Qihua is more confident than ever, he can feel that this is the closest contact he has with dark energy.

They strengthened their confidence and constantly adjusted the experimental plan.

Hard work pays off, and opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. A solar wind blows the earth, setting off an energy tide near the earth.

The space fluctuation detector found that some energies around are several times more active than before.

Li Qihua stared closely at the data detected by the instrument, and he found that there was an abnormal situation compared to the usual data.

Scientists have delved into this anomaly, and they have finally detected a previously undiscovered energy fluctuation.

Scientists have finally found the dark energy that powers life on Ceres.

Seeing that this energy was found, Tao Shengwen said gratefully: "Thank you for your help. If it weren't for you, I don't know how long my project will be delayed."

Li Qihua said politely: "After this experiment, we have also gained a lot. Now that we have discovered a kind of dark energy, he can let our laboratory focus on it next.

What's more, we have found a way to discover dark energy. This experience cannot be exchanged for a thousand dollars. This is the key for us to master more dark energy. "

Tao Shengwen sent off the physical scientist who came to help, and then it was time for him to play his profession.

The DNA sequences of the organelles have been determined, and the energy that powers the organelles has been found.

The next work of Tao Shengwen and the others is to transplant this organelle into the cells of ordinary plants to create space plants that can survive in the universe.

The cell laboratory began to get busy, and they used genetic technology to create space plants.

Tao Shengwen watched the results of their hard work during this time.

They produced many plants containing life-like organelles from Ceres.

The staple food plants are corn and sorghum.

Vegetable plants include cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, green beans, etc.

Tao Shengwen found through experiments that transplanting organelles into ordinary plants can indeed convert adenosine triphosphate, the biochemical energy required by dark energy-generating cells.

It's just that the energy produced by this kind of organelle is huge, and some weak plants can't bear it.

The plants that have been successful in these experiments have relatively strong stems, or vines that can climb on objects.

Tao Shengwen is very happy. Their laboratory has successfully produced space plants, which is a major breakthrough.

Next, we only need to screen the space plants to select space plants that are easy to grow and have a large yield, and more importantly, space plants that can adapt to the space environment.

Their project was a great success, and they directly broke the limitations of space agriculture.

Tao Shengwen was observing the space plants, and the scientists responsible for the cultivation of space plants reported to him immediately.

"Director Tao, after collecting data over the past few days, we have concluded the conditions required for the growth of space plants.

Space plants do not need photosynthesis, and their living environment does not need oxygen and carbon dioxide, and can survive in an environment without atmosphere.

Dark energy is widely distributed throughout the universe, and we don't need to pick out places for space plants to grow.

The organelles of space plants can convert methane and water into various amino acids and organic substances needed for their life.

However, this conversion process consumes a huge amount of energy, which affects the normal growth of space plants, especially the development of space plants at the seedling stage.

We specially equip space plants with a nutrient solution rich in organic matter, which can promote the rapid growth of space plants in the seedling stage.

After the space plants mature, they do not need this special fertilizer. It can absorb dark energy and synthesize high molecular compounds needed for plant growth through methane and hydration. "

Tao Shengwen looked at the space plant growth environment summed up by scientists, and he said happily: "Great, space plants can be grown in the universe, as long as a certain amount of base fertilizer is guaranteed, it can survive with methane and water.

Space plants can absorb more energy, and with abundant energy reserves, they can synthesize more organic matter.

In this way, the output of staple food crops and vegetables has been improved to a certain extent.

Space plants are also very easy to care for. There are no other organisms in space, and they have no natural enemies.It fits the requirements of space farming very well. "

Tao Shengwen was very happy when he saw the data of space plants. The project finally succeeded.

In Wang Xiaoxiao's professional field, he overwhelmed Wang Xiaoxiao, and now he can walk around the laboratory with pride.

Only relying on the achievement of space plants, he Tao Shengwen can use this achievement to go down in history and leave his name through the ages.

When Tao Shengwen was fantasizing, his assistant ran towards him anxiously.

"Director, something happened, something big happened."
