I Have a Little Black Hole

And if you always eat that kind of processed space food, I believe that you will soon get tired of it. Without fresh food, those staff stationed in the base will easily suffer from malnutrition!

Not to mention that there are no green plants, they will still have the same anxious mood as those in the space station, so there must be a dedicated plant farm to cultivate various ornamental and edible plants!

Especially with such a farm, there can be one more procedure for recyclable substances such as excrement and washing water of these workers.

This water is purified and used to water the plants, and the waste can be transformed into fertilizers to fertilize them.

And these plants can also convert the carbon dioxide they produce into pure natural oxygen, which is more comfortable than inhaling the oxygen that is electrolyzed using their excrement and washing water, right?

And the water carried by those edible plants after they mature is absorbed into the human body, which can make everyone more psychologically acceptable! Other parts of these plants can provide food for the herbivores raised in the ecological farm, so that there are vegetables and fruits in the base, and fresh meat!

With such a procedure, I believe that everyone will feel more comfortable psychologically. After all, even if the purified water is clean, people will feel uncomfortable when drinking it directly again, let alone breathing like this. Oxygen from water electrolysis!

I believe that if there is a choice, no one will choose to accept this! Therefore, for the staff who will calculate 10,000 kilometers or even hundreds of millions of kilometers away from home in the future, we can live more comfortably in the base, and the ecological circle of the base must be built a little more perfect!

Moreover, if we want to build colonies on the moon and Mars in the future, building an ecosystem is a very important job!

Without these biosphere farms and biosphere ranches, it would be impossible to make a colony self-sufficient, and a colony that relies on constant supplies from the earth is not a healthy colony!

So I'm going to establish a new colony ecosphere research company, the name is 'Future Colony Ecological Agriculture Company'! This company will be responsible for researching various ecological farms with different needs on different planets.

Research suitable plants and animals for these ecological farms, and design different types of ecological circles, so that our future colonies can achieve self-sufficiency to the greatest extent! Lei Tiantang detailed the second topic of the meeting.

His topic made everyone nod in agreement, thinking about it, drinking the purified water directly and breathing the oxygen that was electrolyzed from it would make everyone unacceptable psychologically.

What can be done is more in line with common sense, why not do it?

After a complete transformation of the ecological circle, everyone can accept it. After all, this is the model on earth. The most important thing is that with such an ecosystem, interstellar colonization becomes a possibility, and colonization that cannot be self-sufficient after leaving the home planet cannot be considered a success!

We will cooperate with the research work of the new company! Everyone nodded in agreement with Lei Tiantang's idea.

Boss, I can still accept planting plants in the ecosystem, but isn't it a bit too whimsical to raise livestock? Isn't the current technology already able to use nutrient solution to directly cultivate fresh meat?

The inedible parts of those plants can be converted into nutrient solution by technical means, and then directly cultivated by the cells of various animals to cultivate all kinds of fresh meat. Breeding live animals will be more troublesome in terms of technology and operation, right?

Although everyone agrees with the newly established ecological agriculture company, everyone has different ideas. Zhang Hanxiu was the first to put forward his own different ideas.

Director Zhang's idea is indeed very real! The current technology can indeed do such a thing, although this is beneficial to the meat cultured in nutrient solution, in terms of nutrition and taste, it is not much different from the naturally cultured animal meat. .

But let me ask you, if the same portion of meat is put in front of you, would you like to eat the nutrient solution or cultivate it? Lei Tiantang asked with a smile.

Hearing Lei Tiantang's question, everyone looked at each other in dismay, and they all knew everyone's choice from their eyes. If there is a choice, who would choose the artificial one!

Okay boss, what you said makes sense, there are options, everyone must be the first to choose naturally-raised meat, but the technology of using nutrient solution to cultivate various meats, I don't think our company can give up this option. right?

In the large-scale ecological circle opened up on the colony, we certainly have enough places to naturally breed various animals, but we can’t keep a few animals on our spacecraft, right?

So what happened to our spaceship? Space mobile farm? It is a luxury to have a place to grow some vegetables on a spaceship. If you want to eat fresh meat, using nutrient solution to quickly cultivate is a very practical technology! Zhang Hanxiu felt that his idea was not worthless, so he continued to introduce it.

That's right! This technology is indeed very useful for our future interstellar travel! In-depth research can be carried out on the agricultural company's side!

There are many technologies that need to be broken through in the entire ecosphere farm, and there are three main roles in the ecosystem.

One is the producer, responsible for converting other forms of energy into biomass energy and storing it. The largest group is various plants, which store solar energy and produce various organic matter.

Of course, there are also some special producers, who may use chemical energy to produce organic matter, which mainly exist in the ground, undersea craters, etc.

The second role is for consumers. They take producers or other consumers as food, mainly all kinds of animals, including us humans.

The last one is the decomposer, which mainly decomposes organic matter, reconstitutes the organism, or converts it into nutrients for use by producers, such as various bacteria and fungi.

These links need to be divided into a large number of research projects, and these research projects also need the support of everyone here. Various building materials, such as building an ecosystem, need to be researched by material companies.

The control system for managing the ecological farm needs to be researched by the supercomputer department, as well as various robots and various machinery and equipment working on the farm, which in turn needs to be researched by the technology company.
