Chapter 276 The Best Laser

The Mars Moho Project will be the largest drilling project in human history. Correspondingly, the drilling rig it will use will be the largest and most efficient drilling rig in human history.

The engineering transport ship of the Osborne Group is staying over the Greek plains. The construction drone has already laid the foundation here. This is not a foundation in the traditional sense. In addition to supporting the building, it also has the ability to adjust modular buildings to complete Final assembled functionality.

The palm-sized modular building is placed at the designated location and then restored from the reduced state. The building and the foundation are connected. After receiving energy supply, the foundation carrying the modular building begins to slide. The construction is completed under the operation of the construction robot arm and the movable floor. Final assembly work.

The operation process looked like a puzzle, and soon the Moho Project Control Center was completed.

After the internal self-inspection was completed and everything was confirmed to be normal, these buildings were connected to the Osborne control network.

"Construction is complete and the transport ship is about to land."

The transport ship's shipboard AI prompted the engineers and scientific researchers. The roof of the building on the ground slowly opened, and the top floor of the building was a separate landing area.

After landing, the roof is closed and employees complete physical checks and identity verification in the landing zone to ensure everything is in order.

After completing the landing inspection, employees can enter the work and living areas and control the advancement of the Mars Moho project in real time.

The control center started operating, and engineering drones swarmed out to start the construction of the Moho drilling under the control of engineers.

The Moho drilling rig does not use drill bits in the traditional sense. Strictly speaking, this drilling rig does not have "drill bits" and uses laser rock breaking technology.

This technology has been verified on asteroid mining stations, and laser devices have been weaponized and installed on frigates.

However, they are also photons, and photons of different frequencies have different energies.

Currently, thanks to the materials left by the Chitauri and the Dark Elves, the Osborn Group already has materials and designs that can focus X-rays at this level, which is much more efficient than the visible light emitters two years ago.

Above the drilling hole, the energy of the array is converted into photons, which are adjusted by the focusing crystal to form a high-energy X-laser that melts, crushes, and evaporates the rock.

The powerful thermal shock also breaks the surrounding rock material into fine particles. The strong pressure generated by the evaporation of the molten material in the drilling area is enough to cause the broken material to rise to the ground.

Thanks to the low gravity environment of Mars, these materials can fly very high. However, as the drilling depth increases, it is still necessary to spray a liquid stream into the drilling area to enhance the thermal shock effect and help these fine particles eject from the wellhead.

Drilling went well.

The entrance to the hole was quickly surrounded by a circle of metal devices. Since this drilling may be converted into a mine in the future, it is not as narrow as a scientific research drilling. On the contrary, it looks as spacious as an open-pit mine.

As drilling progresses, the depth of the well becomes increasingly invisible to the naked eye, and the empty deep well looks like the entrance to hell - but robots that work up and down the well walls eliminate this fear.

Everyone knows that this is not a hole to hell, but a project to the future.

"Boss, these lasers are running well. We will be able to get samples of the Martian mantle soon."

Phineas reported to Harry on the drilling operations. His excellent weapons design capabilities made him a military weapons expert for the Osborne Group.

Although it is a weapon, as long as it is used properly, it can also become an excellent production tool, such as the laser drill currently in use.

After reading the excavation data, Harry said: "The X-ray is very good, can it be improved further?"

From the perspective of technological progress, although X laser is good, it is not the photon with the highest energy.

Gu Qi</span>The energy level of gamma photons is one level higher than that of X-rays. However, it is still difficult to control these photons and weaponize them.

Phineas shrugged: "I have also done experiments in this area, but the current focusing crystal is not enough to control gamma rays."

By reversing the various remains of the Chitauri and Dark Elves, the Osborn Group's materials science has become quite advanced, and it is unlikely to make any breakthroughs in a short period of time.

"Well... maybe you can change your technical thinking."

"Change your thinking?" Phineas didn't know what this meant.

Harry smiled: As for gamma rays, there is a super expert on gamma rays in this world - Bruce Banner.

This person is a true expert on gamma rays, and he is specialized in metaphysics.

Banner developed a gamma ray focuser while studying the super soldier serum. This technology broke through the limitations of materials and could produce a fairly dense gamma ray flow.

In the outside world, Banner only had a few papers on gamma rays, but in the official U.S. records, Harry could see the complete test records and technical details.

"These are Banner's research on gamma rays at the time. I think you can learn from them and see if you can find a better way."

Harry tapped the terminal on his arm and sent the information.

"Bruce Banner's technology...I'm going to try it now." Phineas was very excited to be exposed to new technology.

From laser weapons to gamma rays, this is basically the end. Once this step is taken, the only thing left is to increase the power and then move the launch array to the space battleship.

In space, the Osborne Group does not have any weapons that can be used, and hopes that gamma laser can bring about some breakthroughs.

Before Ronan can lead his fleet to attack the Nova Empire, he must have enough naval power to participate in the battle for the Power Stone.

After hanging up the communication, Harry returned his gaze to Kepler 22's star base.

"Sir, the construction of Kepler 22's star outpost has been completed, the shipyard has been constructed, and production can begin at any time." Oyce reported.

This base is similar in size to the Odyssey base in the solar system, but the internal buildings adopt a modular design to facilitate the application of the design in other galaxies. After all, not all star bases need to be filled with docks.

Considering the largest large warships that may be put into production in the future, the shipyard in the base takes up a lot of space.

The size of the current star base is only enough to support the operation of two shipyards.

"Very good, let's start transferring alloy resources. Now it's time to design a new ship. Open the ship designer."

Everything is ready, now it's time to design a new ship.

The history of the development of human combat units is bigger, faster, and stronger, and frigates are only the smallest units among space battleships.

This is just the beginning.
