The technological empire begins with polymer materials

Chapter 314 Grab Jupiter! One ton of helium 3 is enough to last the imperial capital for one year! (



Following Gao Yuan's order, the Jupiter Resource Collection Complex immediately began operations.

Huh~

I saw a white light suddenly emitting from the inside of the long carbon nanotube. The white light was like a sharp sword, piercing the atmosphere of Jupiter, and then began to spiral.

It is like a disembodied rotary excavator that quickly brings out the high-concentration gases containing hydrogen and helium from Jupiter's atmosphere.

At this time, the thousand-kilometer-long giant carbon nanotubes can come into play, and with the help of ultra-powerful auroral motors, they can quickly collect the atmosphere of Jupiter.

At the same time, the collection device is also adjusting its position and angle. After all, this is the first interstellar operation. How high should the carbon nanotubes hover from the atmosphere of Jupiter? Do they need to be slightly closer to obtain the maximum collection efficiency? All require real-time data and zero calculation by artificial intelligence.

The live broadcast showed that as a large amount of resource gas entered the cabin of the Desert Ark, a total of twelve high-speed centrifuges began to work.

These centrifuges are responsible for extracting helium-3 from gas resources. As for other elements, they are not used at the moment and can be thrown directly into space.

Although this is very wasteful, human beings cannot always use the fixed thinking on a small broken ball to think about the huge universe.

For example, hydrogen is a resource that is not abundant in Jupiter and other planets in the solar system. It is not a big problem to waste some. It is like pulling out a hair from your body. It cannot be said that you have lost a part of yourself. Moreover, the hydrogen abandoned by the plateau is not even a hair, but at most a bacterium in the large intestine.

Perhaps in the future, when interstellar shipping is more developed and costs are lower, Gao Yuan will consider collecting hydrogen from Jupiter, but for now he only needs helium-3.

With helium-3, the dream of energy freedom can be realized. Only by realizing energy freedom can we build more Desert Arks and gain greater freedom.

Life is like this, only when you give up can you gain.

Kunlun Group gave up the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan and gained a broader space for development, as well as the freedom to conduct various large-scale experiments and dangerous experiments.

Gao Yuan gave up cooperating with the West and just let them be happy. Without the disturbing noise around him, he felt happy and his thinking became clearer.

But now, Gao Yuan has decided to give up the fight for the resources on the earth and directly exploit the resources of the entire universe!

To be fair, tritium and deuterium are not incapable of being used as fusion reactants, but tritium has to come from lithium ore, and lithium ore has to come from Africa and Australia. When China buys lithium ore, it depends on other people's faces.

Gao Yuan doesn't like to look at other people's faces. Although he can also try to persuade the national team to violently plunder Africa, is that really necessary?

China's development speed is beyond the reach of all other countries. It is really too fast. Even if lithium mines are snatched from Africa, how many years will it be able to stay on the plateau?

What is needed for scientific research?

is unconstrained.

Without funding or sufficient resources, you just summoned Einstein and reincarnated him into the dirt. How could he engage in scientific research on bean sprouts?

Many melon-eating people have misunderstandings about scientific research. They always think that scientific research is just a group of smart guys squatting in a small dark room to write and draw with pencils and triangle rulers.

However, in reality, scientific research largely relies on trial and error by burning money.

When a scientist has an idea, just give him money and resources and let him try it. It doesn't matter if he is wrong. As long as he succeeds once, it will be enough to advance science a big step forward. This is the most correct way to start scientific research.

It's a pity that scientific research is limited by resources. China's resources are limited, and the resources on the earth are limited. If we want to develop better and faster, we must do everything possible to break the resource curse.

At the same time, all resources must be tilted towards science.

If capitalists get a large amount of resources, they will not be satisfied and will only ask for more. This is determined by the greedy nature of capital and can never be reversed. Don't think that the capitalists in our country are different from the capitalists in North America.

There is no difference. Marx and Engels concluded the coffin for capitalists a long time ago. Capitalists cannot have conscience, because people with conscience are not worthy of becoming capitalists. Capital is destined to only follow those with the most evil intentions, help them, and achieve success. They, and all kind people, are destined to live a dull life.

If resources are tilted towards idol stars, they will only create a bigger topic in order to attract more eyeballs. In the end, it seems that who a star is dating or who secretly has a child is the most important thing in the world.

Eyeballs are the foundation for the survival of idol stars. As long as they survive, they will definitely make fun of themselves, create topics, and compete with the world for attention resources.

If it is not controlled, in the end, it will become a state where no one cares about the life and death of the country's soldiers, and the family affairs of the bitch are known to the world.

As for Gao Yuan, he is a fanatical believer in Scientology and is committed to plundering resources for the cause of science. However, he is more ruthless and plunders directly to Jupiter.

North America, Washington.

In the live broadcast, the amount of helium-3 collected by Desert Ark was also reported in real time. When the first kilogram of helium-3 was sent to the storage warehouse, the number jumped from zero to one, and the hearts of Musk and others also followed. There was a pop.

Then…

Plop~Plop~Plop…

Gritting his teeth, Sergey turned his attention in pain and stopped watching the live broadcast. After all, he didn't expect that the plateau would actually develop a tractor beam, a perverted productivity tool.

Anyone with basic scientific literacy clearly understands the great significance of the tractor beam. It is an extension of the human arm and a powerful material control tool.

Although the tractor beam is not as flexible as a precision robotic arm and can complete nanoscale ultra-precision instrument assembly, the tractor beam can extend further and control objects of staggering weight.

According to the law of conservation of energy, as long as the energy of the tractor beam is strong enough, it can even grab a planet and then throw it out to play bowling in the solar system.

Of course, this is only theoretical. In practical applications, if the tractor beam can reach the industrial level and improve the efficiency of light and heavy industries, it will be a quite remarkable achievement.

"You see, the atmosphere of Jupiter has spread into the interior of the Desert Ark."

"It doesn't matter. The pilot of the Desert Ark has zero artificial intelligence, so Gao Yuan doesn't care about gas leakage at all, as long as it doesn't cause damage to the hull."

"Hey, this is really a trick that has been used all over the world. Now I realize that the easy-to-use artificial intelligence is so powerful. The unmanned spacecraft does not need to care about anything except its function. Food, fresh water, and oxygen are not like us, who study individual The toilets used in manned spacecraft cost tens of millions of dollars.”

"This Gao Yuan guy looks simple and crude, but he is actually a typical pragmatist. The things he makes may not necessarily look good, but they are definitely useful. In just a short time, hundreds of kilograms of helium-3 have been loaded into the warehouse."

"This is only the initial stage of resource collection. Artificial intelligence is constantly collecting data and adjusting efficiency, and the centrifuge has not entered full-speed operation. In two days, the efficiency of the Desert Ark should be higher."

"Fill 200,000 tons of helium 3 and then return to the earth. God, just thinking about this makes me feel like I'm going crazy. One ship has 200,000 tons, and five ships are one million tons. Excluding the collection time , the round trip only takes ten days, how can we compete with China?"

"It seems that the energy freedom that the plateau longs for is really about to come true."

After all, he is the world's top boss. Although everyone was shocked to the extreme, they didn't shout much. They soon calmed down and talked to each other in suppressed voices.

Frustration and pessimism are always inevitable, after all, the gap is getting wider and wider.

The most irritating thing is that if you want to say how strong and aggressive China is, it really isn’t.

Because China has such a strange thing like the Plateau, it is different from the previous situation where the scientific research community focused on the West. The Plateau has nothing to do with the West. It does not cooperate, does not communicate, and does not care.

Apart from a few core products that are not on the market, Plateau's black technology products are also available in the West if they really want to buy them. It just requires extra money and a little trouble.

But after you get it, you still want to find plateau after-sales service. That is impossible, because it has never entered the Western market. Whoever sells it to you is the one you go to.

This is very embarrassing. The West is holding back its energy and wants to compete with Plateau, but Plateau only has China's one-third of an acre in its eyes and never takes the initiative, giving the West the impression of wishful thinking.

It's not a cooperative relationship, nor a competitive relationship. In fact, no matter what Gao Yuan does, it has nothing to do with them at all.

"Ula!"

"Long live!"

"It's already one thousand kilograms. We have mined one ton of helium-3 from Jupiter!"

"Awesome! This efficiency is so awesome!"

"I never thought that I would be able to see my rabbit march towards Jupiter in my lifetime!"

"Ye Qing Hui! It's like watching a science fiction movie. My childhood dream has finally come true!"

"What's our slogan?"

"Grab money, grain, and Jupiter!"

"What's our slogan?"

"Grab money, grain, and Jupiter!"

The barrage refreshed quickly like an explosion. Everyone was excited about mining the first barrel of helium-3 from Jupiter, and at the same time, they were full of countless bright hopes for the future.

An interstellar era unique to China is rolling in unstoppably. Every Chinese citizen seems to feel the darkness and coldness of the universe.

Despite this, no one is afraid to back down, because after experiencing countless painful lessons and reviewing history countless times, people finally understand that on the road to civilization, only forward is the only direction.

The Romans, the Assyrians, the Phoenicians, the Babylonians, civilizations that have become history, without exception, were reduced to ashes and became the material for future generations to study in textbooks.

What do Chinese people think of the once extremely glorious ancient Roman Empire?

Pay homage?

of course not.

A parent with a correct mind should educate their children like this, "Although the decline of the Roman Empire was a complex economic and social issue, they allowed the barbarians to fail to take adequate precautions and control, which was a very important reason. If you grow up, When you grow up, don’t imitate them.”

Do you see that any civilization that is destroyed is a negative example for subsequent civilizations?

As the last ancient civilization on earth, if China does not want to disappear like them, it must continue to learn lessons from past history, reject naivety, and always be wary of everything around it. .

Gao Yuan smiled and said earnestly to the camera: "As we all know, helium has eight isotopes, among which helium three and helium four are the most stable. Helium three is an extremely powerful fusion material. The amount of energy produced by its fusion depends on the fusion Whether the design of the device is reasonable and whether the energy utilization rate is high enough."

"We have already achieved all these prerequisites. In our high-efficiency fusion device, every ton of helium-3 can at least supply the energy consumption of very large cities like Imperial Capital and Shanghai for an entire year."

"The maximum loading capacity of the Desert Ark is 200,000 tons. In other words, the helium-3 transported by this ship to the earth is enough for Shanghai and the Imperial Capital to use until the end of time."

"This is the main reason why I dare to propose energy freedom. The price of electricity is zero. You can use it as much as you like, because on the scale of the universe, the little electricity we currently use is completely worth mentioning."

"The sun burns enough energy every day for people on earth to use it for a billion years. In the entire universe, there are at least two trillion stars like the sun. As for planets with gas resources like Jupiter, there are even more. It’s unclear.”

"So, the height we stand determines the breadth of our vision. From now on, we must continue to manage this three-acre land of China, but our vision must look further, and we must get used to the solar system and even the Milky Way universe. Think about the problem from a different perspective.”

One stone stirred up a thousand waves. Gao Yuan's speech caused a huge sensation around the world, and the barrage came like a blanketing the sky.

"One ton of helium-3 can last the Imperial City for a whole year?"

"Oh my God, what kind of magical efficiency is this! Isn't it too exaggerated!?"

"Is this the so-called era of the great universe?"

"I must say, I love the Age of the Universe so much!"

"I totally agree. Boss Gao is right. It's time to set our sights further!"

"Many old-fashioned ideas still come from agricultural society and must be eradicated in the future. For example, the marriage system is very inconsistent. Many girls also want betrothal gifts. To be honest, if they give me betrothal gifts in return, I may not even want to get married."

"Abolish the institution of marriage. As long as Boss Gao sends out robot maids, I have no problem at all."

The audience discussed enthusiastically that the plateau opened a window for them, allowing everyone to see a wider world. However, when they saw farther, some strange things were also mixed in.

For example, the public's demand for mechanical maids has become increasingly fierce. This issue will be discussed on a large scale in almost every live broadcast.

As we all know, China's fertility rate has plummeted, and of course there is a reason behind this.

Looking at the essence through the phenomenon, as society progresses, everyone's ability to survive independently becomes stronger and stronger, and the need to survive with others becomes weaker and weaker.

Huh~

While everyone was ecstatic, Gao Yuan pulled over a huge blackboard and quickly wrote on it. Such an abrupt change of style left the audience stunned.

"Please don't forget that this is a serious technology live show."

"Happiness is happiness, imagination is imagination, but we still have to attend classes."

"As we all know, light has momentum. For ordinary particles and matter, momentum is the product of mass and speed, p=mυ."

"But photons are special. Photons have no rest mass, and their momentum is p=h/λ, h=6.6*10..."

Very suddenly, the course on the study of photon momentum and the application of photon mechanics started on the same button. Gao Yuan spoke very fast, and most of the audience was confused.

Fortunately, Gao Yuan has passed the stage of forcing others to learn. He used the most concise expressions and formulas he could think of to demonstrate it to all those who cared about this technology, and then retreated.

"According to the schedule, the Desert Ark will not return to Earth until the end of this year." Gao Yuan said with a smile: "I know you may think this time is longer, but there is no way. The interstellar cargo ship has made its maiden voyage and the Jupiter atmosphere collection device has been operational for the first time. There are too many experiments to do and too much data to collect.”

"Please believe that all the waiting is worth it."

"When the Desert Ark returns successfully, I will broadcast it live for you again."

"The above is the entire content of this program. I am Gao Yuan. See you next time!"

It’s not easy to separate, so I posted the two chapters together.
