I Have a Little Black Hole

Chapter 1169 Why do you secretly go to the moon to mine helium three?

In the past two years, Lei Tiantang himself has not stopped his development. On the side of the solar system, through constant outings, secret underground bases have been built on the planets and satellites that can build bases in the entire solar system. It has laid a solid foundation for the solar system defense circle plan.

And also have a relatively detailed understanding of the entire solar system, and the process of collecting data is not different from the star system they named 'new home' on the side of the small black hole body, which is a step-by-step detection. , but a large part of the data on this side of the solar system was collected by Lei Tiantang and Kua's father in the past.

Through the comparison of the detailed detection data of these two star systems, Lei Tiantang and Kuafu have a deeper understanding of the formation and development of star systems, as well as more understanding of this mysterious universe.

And this understanding has once again improved the speed of some of their related research. In the past two years, they have broken through a lot of technical problems, and even the planetary spacecraft they are planning is already at the end of research and development. But it can't be compared to the 'Moon' spacecraft, which they set as a satellite-level spacecraft.

The other design and manufacturing issues of this spacecraft have been resolved, and the last remaining problem is the power system, and the core of this power system is the real third-generation nuclear fusion reactor, which is to use helium 3 completely. Fuel for nuclear fusion reactions.

Boss, I'm just wondering! What the hell do you think? It seems that your own reserves of helium 3 add up to more than 2 million tons, right? Your reserves are not much less than the helium 3 found on the moon.

So much helium-3 is enough for us to use it for at least 10,000 years, right? You must know that even if it is calculated according to the current energy consumption of the entire earth, if the energy consumed by the entire earth in one year is provided by helium 3, it will consume at most 200 tons in that year.

Even if we have 2 helium-3 fusion reactors on our spacecraft, and we fly at full power during spaceflight, we will not be able to use 100 tons in one year of flight.

So the question arises, do you actually plan to take this opportunity to test the tourist spacecraft of the company to secretly mine some helium 3 on the moon? I don't understand what your state of mind is! Kwafu complained while working.

Cut! What do you know! This is a feeling, do you understand? Yes! I can't use up the helium-3 I have stored myself, but what is the main purpose of our spacecraft?

It is to go to the distant universe to perform a mission, so the problem is, if I use the helium 3 I collected from the small black hole body as the fuel for our spacecraft, it will make me feel sorry for myself. The feeling of home!

If we really use this spacecraft to go to the body of the small black hole in the future, I would definitely prefer to use the helium-3 mined from the moon as fuel, because this will give me a little psychological comfort and use the materials from my hometown to hit the road It will save me from the nostalgia that may arise, which is why I do it!

Lei Tiantang's answer made Kuafu a little confused. He rolled his eyes and said, You can be a jerk! It's still nostalgic, you see, every time you sneak into the waves in the solar system, you are more Everyone is happy. If they leave the solar system and go to the cosmos, there will be no joy there!

If you tell me this, do you think I'll believe it? Do you still know what's going on on the moon right now? Various countries are vying for territory there, aren't you afraid of revealing your plan?

If for the reason you said, you want to use helium 3 in the solar system as fuel, there is no need to secretly mine it from the moon. The helium 3 resources detected by our probe on Mercury are comparable to the moon. Not much at all.

Even in terms of the content of helium 3, the helium 3 content in the surface soil of Mercury exceeds that of the moon. Wouldn't it be more convenient to mine there and would not be discovered? So please tell me what you think.

Stop selling off!

This is no nonsense from Kuafu. There are still very few helium-3 resources on the earth. This is mainly due to the earth's atmosphere and magnetic field, which prevent the helium-3 atoms in solar radiation from reaching the earth.

The helium-3 element on the entire earth is basically obtained from tritium (super-heavy hydrogen) through beta decay. The abundance of tritium is already scarce, so the helium-3 element on the earth is even more pitiful, and the purification cost is very high. , the total amount of helium-3 that can be used by humans on the earth is only about half a ton.

The helium 3 used to study the second-generation nuclear fusion reactors at the Interstellar Age Research Institute was basically collected in their own nuclear fusion reactors. They can only be used for some experiments. It is not that they do not want to have a lot of experimental materials. Rather, collecting or mining helium-3 on Earth is simply too much work.

But the helium-3 on the moon is very rich. It is estimated that the helium-3 element that can be mined on the entire moon is as high as more than 2 million tons. If all of it is used for nuclear fusion reactions, it can provide mankind with energy supply for thousands of years.

In the interior of the sun, the process of fusion of hydrogen element to helium element is going on. There is a step of reaction, which is the fusion of a protium nucleus and a deuteron nucleus, and the combination is helium-3.

This reaction is mainly carried out in a very small core area of ​​the star. Most of the helium-3 will continue to fuse into stable helium-4, and only a small part of the helium-3 element will leave the reaction area and then reach the surface of the sun, passing through the solar wind. Blow around.

The moon has no magnetic field and atmosphere, and the helium-3 element in the solar wind will directly reach the lunar surface and be evenly distributed in the lunar soil. The accumulation of billions of years, this amount will accumulate very considerable.

However, the earth's thick atmosphere and geomagnetic field block the helium-3 element and cannot reach the ground at all. This is the reason why the helium-3 element is scarce on the earth and a lot on the moon.

In this case, Mercury, the planet closest to the sun, will of course have more helium 3, because Mercury does not have an atmosphere like the earth and Venus, so it will also receive helium 3 from the sun, and Because it is closer to the sun, the helium-3 content will only be higher than that of the moon.

Therefore, Kuafu scoffs at his own boss's explanation. No matter how much helium-3 is on the moon, can there be more helium-3 on the moon than on Mercury? For them, the distance of Mercury is not a big problem, and it is not a delay to go back and forth once every two weeks at the fastest time.
