Chapter 210 Guanghan Palace Moon Base, The Moon Is Full Of Treasures!
The North Pole of the Moon.
Lava cave area.
The 24 astronauts started their busy work.
They need to build bases, explore surrounding resources, collect lunar soil, rocks, etc., and the tasks are complicated.
at the same time.
The galaxy space intelligent robot drives the "moon rovers" from the cabin to the surface of the moon.
These lunar rovers are about the same size as excavators and have powerful functions, including communication functions, positioning functions, resource detection functions, excavation functions, drilling functions and so on.
The cost of each car is as high as tens of millions of yuan!
The first task of astronauts and space intelligent robots is to build a lunar base in a lava cave.
A large amount of space materials were transported from the cabin and sent to the lava cave.
There is heaven and earth in the lava cave, and the area is extremely spacious.
One after another, the lunar rovers quickly leveled the rocks in all directions inside and piled them aside.
Then, the lunar rover began to dig the foundation and drill holes.
On the other side, the lunar rover responsible for transportation transported steel pipes, steel plates, etc., all of which are new space materials.
These materials are very light and easy to carry. At the same time, their hardness, ductility, properties of thermal expansion and contraction, thermal insulation properties, etc. have been strictly tested and designed.
There is an interlayer in the middle of the steel plate, which is filled with heat-insulating substances, which can perfectly adapt to the environment of the ball.
Steel pipes are forked into the drilled holes one by one, and there are slots, holes, etc. reserved in advance on the steel pipes.
The steel pipe was erected, and then pieces of steel plates were continuously inserted into the slots of the steel pipe like building blocks, and then tightened with screws, and a wall was soon completed.
Astronauts and space robots have a clear division of labor and orderly actions.
In less than an hour, the lunar house built with steel plates appeared in the desolate lava cave.
In the lunar house, not only the walls are made of steel plates, but also the ground is all paved with steel plates. Everything is precisely designed on the earth side, and they can be perfectly inlaid with each other.
After the house is built, the gaps are hemmed with a specially developed hemming glue, and it is considered to be completely completed.
next.
The space robot transports the life support system, living system and other related supporting facilities to the house, which serves as the base hut for the astronauts to rest.
After a few hours.
The Xiaguo Moon Base in the lava cave has begun to take shape.
More than twenty fully functional huts appear in the lava cave and are connected with each other, bringing new colors to this desolate and silent lava cave for hundreds of millions of years.
At the same time, the ground command center named the lunar base "Guanghan Palace"!
above the earth.
Xia Guo's manned moon landing project has been a complete success.
The official Fang Ping channel has ended the live broadcast.
However, there is still a live broadcast platform responsible for the 24-hour live broadcast of the construction of the lunar base.
Netizens who are interested in Guanghangong Moon Base still watch the live broadcast with great interest.
The lunar expert in the live broadcast room gave the audience a popular science saying: "The lunar north pole where the Guanghangong lunar base is located belongs to the permanent illumination area and is always as bright as daytime.
The specific construction tasks of the lunar base are temporarily divided into several steps.
First, build a solar base for high-efficiency light generation to maintain the power required by the base.
Second, water ice is mined in shaded areas to extract water resources.
Third, use local materials and use 3D printing technology to print some basic equipment.
Fourth, build a lunar factory, which is responsible for refining ore minerals and mining the minerals needed by the earth.
Fifth, build a base protection center to intercept meteorites flying at high speed from deep space in time.
Sixth, build a perfect living area, no longer worry about oxygen, high temperature, high pressure and other conditions, and let the astronauts live freely.
Seventh, build a controllable nuclear fusion power station to solve the energy problem once and for all.
Eighth, build a lunar vegetable planting center to achieve self-sufficiency in vegetables.
Ninth, build a lunar medical station to completely solve the problem of space medical treatment.
These nine steps, regardless of backward, are carried out simultaneously.
If only relying on the existing 24 astronauts and 3,000 intelligent space robots, it will take a long time to build.
But everyone can rest assured.
Three days later, the Yinhe 1 lunar landing spacecraft will return from the moon to the earth for supplies.
From now on, the Yinhe-1 lunar landing spacecraft will go back and forth between the moon and the earth every week to provide logistical support.
In the following days.
Astronauts, scientists, doctors, and engineers will go to the moon and contribute to the construction of the Guanghan Palace Moon Base!"
hear this.
Netizens nodded.
Luckily there are anti-gravity ships.
Otherwise, it is impossible to transport materials on a large scale only by means of launch vehicles.
Anti-gravity technology is the most suitable technology for space exploration!
that night.
Astronauts stopped their work one after another to gather energy and strength for tomorrow.
In the base hut, all life support systems have been turned on.
The astronauts took off their heavy spacesuits, lay very comfortably on the bed in the hut, and fell asleep on the moon.
Of course, space intelligent robots do not sleep, they have to work hard before the power runs out.
Inside the ground control command center.
Scientists and engineers also went back to rest one after another to recharge their batteries for tomorrow.
next morning.
The astronauts woke up from sleep one after another.
Space intelligent robots will prepare meals in advance for everyone to enjoy.
After eating and drinking.
The people are working again.
Some are responsible for building moon bases.
Some are responsible for exploring surrounding lunar resources.
Some collect lunar soil and rock samples.
Soon, good news came from the Tuyuan team.
They explored nearby minerals through the most advanced detection equipment on the lunar rover.
"Ground command center, I have helium-3 everywhere, the content is simply inestimable!"
"The command center on the ground, I found a large copper mine with a reserve of about 500 million tons!"
"Ground command center, I found a relatively well-preserved extraterrestrial meteorite!"
"In the command center on the ground, I found a giant ilmenite mine that was initially detected to be as high as 3 billion tons!"
"The command center on the ground, I found that the thickness of the Krip rock is 10 kilometers to 20 kilometers, and the total resources of rare earth elements are estimated to be between 20 billion tons and 35 billion tons."
Inside the Earth Control Center.
Scientists and engineers are all smiling.
Guanghan Palace Moon Base, on the one hand, serves as a springboard for Xia Guo to enter the universe, and on the other hand, it is for rich mineral resources.
Astronauts just discovered Krip rock, which is the name of a rock rich in potassium, rare earth elements and phosphorus.
In addition, the thorium and uranium contained in Krip rock are also one of the important mineral resources for the development and utilization of lunar resources in Xia.
As for helium-3, that's even more important!
Nuclear fusion of deuterium and tritium is relatively expensive.
The helium fusion of tritium and helium-3 is easy to control nuclear fusion, and the cost is lower.
After Xia Guo obtains helium-3, he can provide a large amount of fusion raw materials for nuclear fusion power plants, and easily realize low-cost national power supply.
With the birth of controllable nuclear fusion technology.
Helium-3 on the moon is already a strategic resource, hundreds of times more important than oil!
It is the kingly way to quickly collect helium-3 resources before countries land on the moon!
What is even more exaggerated is that Xiaguo only needs 10 tons of helium-3 per year, which can meet the annual demand for electric energy.
And there are 1 million to 5 million tons of helium-3 resources on the moon, which can be called inexhaustible!
..........0
As for the extraterrestrial meteorite, it is also very important.
Since the moon has no atmosphere, when meteorites land on the moon, there will be no friction, and naturally they will not be burned, and some information can be well preserved.
This is of great significance for the study of the origin and evolution of the solar system.
at the same time.
All countries in the world are lamenting that the moon is full of treasures.
Helium-3, copper ore, ilmenite, extraterrestrial meteorites, kryptonite, etc., all have extremely high value.
Moreover, while the moon's mineral reserves are abundant, mining is also relatively convenient.
obvious.
All these mineral resources in front of us will be obtained by the Xia Kingdom!
This made their eyes very hot and sour.
They have no controllable nuclear fusion technology, no anti-gravity technology, and no ability to build bases on the moon.
Even if a huge amount of money is spent to complete the manned moon landing, how much can it carry?
thoughts about the outside world.
Xia Guo didn't take it to heart.
The live broadcast of the manned moon landing will not only bring space projects such as manned moon landing and manned spaceflight, which were previously out of reach, closer to all Xia people, and enhance national pride and national cohesion.
At the same time, it can also be beneficial to people, and in everyone's minds, establish the concept that the interstellar space age is full of treasures.
It is conceivable that in the next period of time, there will be an upsurge of moon mining in the entire Xia Kingdom.
Mining on the moon is different from mining on the earth. It is definitely a high-tech, high-tech, and high-capital operation, and countless high-tech industries and companies can be derived.
This plays an extremely important role in promoting the economic development of the Xia Kingdom and driving the development of the Xia Kingdom to the interstellar space age.
Of course, as the first country to establish a base on the moon.
Xia Guohui was pushed to the forefront by public opinion.
Western countries will definitely not sit back and watch Xia Guo go to the top step by step like this.
But step by step, step by step!
Xia Guo exclusively possesses key technologies of the interstellar space age, such as anti-gravity technology and controllable nuclear fusion technology.
Other countries can only watch Xia Guo seize countless mineral resources and become more powerful!.
