Chapter 418 Ghost Brigade
Chapter 418 Ghost Brigade
Under the overt or covert measures of various countries, the birth tide began to break out all over the world!
According to estimates, this wave of births will form a baby boom within a year or so. In addition to starting to build more childcare institutions in various countries, the issue of immigration after the population explosion has naturally been put on the agenda.
The "New Continent" is the first manned spacecraft specially prepared for immigrants. It has a complete ecological cycle system and can transport up to 500 people at a time.
"New Continent"... the name obviously represents the ambition of mankind for this immigration operation.
And its first flight mission this time is to transport 50 carefully selected astronauts and a large number of living materials to the newly built lunar new city.
Most of these 50 people are original astronauts or pre-astronauts from various countries. These people have high comprehensive quality and have certain experience in space survival. They are the best testers and experiencers.
Their tasks are like hotel sleep testers, who will live and work for a period of time after entering a new city, put forward suggestions for optimization and improvement, and be pioneers for future large-scale space immigration.
In the neat queue, there are still three familiar faces standing...
"It's so boring, what is the need for such a stereotyped speech? I think it's better to let me go up and get a set of pancakes!"
"Shut up Tom! Don't be disrespectful to Mr. Albert!" Jerry turned his head and gave him a slight look, and Butch next to him also showed a helpless look.
"OKOK, it doesn't matter whether you are respectful or not, I just hope he will quickly end this boring speech so that we can set off to the moon to experience a new life." Tom shrugged.
After the outbreak of virtual control technology, the professional status of astronauts like Tom was once very embarrassing...
Once you wear the virtual helmet, you can roam any planet in the solar system immersively at any time. In the face of such unprepared black technology, the three of Tom, and even all astronauts in the world are facing the same problem... Are you going to retire early?
But fortunately, the immigration plan has started, and these people finally have a place to use. Tom, who has been idle for a long time, is very much looking forward to this mission.
"It's risky for us to go this time, don't treat it as a tourist!" Jerry said helplessly.
After all, the construction of a large-scale ecological circle is different from Nie Yun's slightly rough mechanized expansion. If the machinery fails, Nie Yun will at best re-improvement, at most wasting some materials and energy, and the fault tolerance rate is so high that Nie Yun can ignore it.
In a purely mechanized base, Nie Yun has close to [-]% control over it. Even if it is a remote-controlled robot, he can stop it in an instant, and the probability of an accident can be said to be extremely small.
But once a large number of humans are stationed in the base, these individuals who have free will and sometimes play cards unreasonably will be like "shit sticks"!
These shit-stirring sticks will make Nie Yun's control over the base plummet...
Even Nie Yun couldn't guarantee whether any "man-made accident" would happen.
Once there is a problem with something like the ecological circle, all he can do before Nie Yun learns the resurrection technique is to sing "Cool and Cool" as a farewell to everyone...
Therefore, when Tom and others took over this task, they signed the life and death certificate in advance as before.
"Risk? Look at the life-support facilities here in the space port. I'm afraid they receive more than a thousand tourists every day, right? I haven't heard of any accidents. Mr. Captain is different from those unreliable technicians, at least There won't be a woodpecker in the oxygen tank!" Tom was clearly confident in Captain Ghost's skills.
But if he knew that the "woodpecker" in the oxygen tank was put in by the Mr. Captain he was talking about, his expression would be wonderful...
Jerry didn't bother to talk to this guy anymore, but he looked around the spaceport again, and he had to admit that the ecosystem here was really amazing.
The air pressure, artificial gravity and other living conditions have completely simulated the earth, and the short-term passengers basically cannot feel any difference from the environment on the ground.
Even the Atlantis company has begun to transplant the green plants on the earth on a large scale. It is said that some kind of spawning technology has been used. The trees that were originally small saplings now seem to be almost 30 to [-] years old. There is a touch of green in the metal environment.
With the current construction speed of the spaceport, I'm afraid it won't be long before this place will be full of trees!
In fact, Nie Yun arranged for Yu Lao and others to start technical reserves and small-scale experiments on the construction of the ecological circle in the space environment.
This "tourism ecosystem" on the Atlantis Spaceport is one of the pilot projects!
With the blessing of virtual control technology and the code name of the big housekeeper, the highly modularized and automated construction efficiency far exceeds the imagination of various countries.
A robot construction team of 10,000+ is working day and night on the spaceport, and resources from the earth and the moon are continuously being brought in. At present, the usable area of the spaceport has expanded by a full 20 times compared to the initial period!
Even at night, astronomers can clearly see the outline of the Atlantis spaceport through low-powered telescopes.
In addition to industrial production, these newly available areas are closed ecological circles suitable for human survival, accounting for about 10% of the area.
The ecological circle that can only support the activities of about a thousand people is not considered large, but it has been continuously optimized and improved with the efforts of scientists, and the prototype of the future space city has emerged.
The design of a large-scale immigrant city is different from the life support system in a battleship. It requires a complete ecological cycle system, including a continuous supply of food and water.
Under normal circumstances, Nie Yun needs to be more cautious in building multiple small-scale ecological circles, and then conduct living environment tests step by step, learn from the experience and lessons, and even pay the price of blood, and finally get the design of the large-scale immigration city.
However, thanks to Nie Yun's espionage operations, the Gemini spaceport with a scale of tens of thousands of people in the neighboring galaxy provided Nie Yun with an excellent reference object, which greatly promoted the process of large-scale immigration.
Nie Yun had previously used mechanical bugs to invade a large number of engineering robots inside the spaceport, and expanded the scale of these mechanical spies through cross-infection. Through their daily activities, Nie Yun had obtained the design models of most areas of the spaceport.
The technical details of the ecological circle that a large number of Gemini people exchanged the lives of countless pioneers have been exposed to the scientists of the earth civilization without reservation.
They only need to improve and optimize this ecological circle to a certain extent according to the characteristics of the two races, and then they can make technological breakthroughs by leaps and bounds.
A considerable part of the credit for the rapid construction of the new moon city needs to be attributed to the technology of the Gemini people.
……
The passionate speech that made Tom's ears callous finally ended after 10 minutes, and 50 people began to board the ship under the eyes and applause that everyone expected.
When passing through the transparent dedicated boarding channel, Tom in the team saw a small tourist group of three men and one woman outside the security circle in the distance, looking at the blue mother planet of the earth.
But the strange thing is that the little girl who was obviously dressed as a tour guide did not speak, but a passenger was talking excitedly to the other three.
Seeing the way the man was waving his arms, Tom inexplicably felt... Mmm!The scene this guy paints must be huge!
"Cut! It's another lip service!" Tom remembered Albert's speech, and couldn't help turning his head and swearing in his heart. The next moment, his figure disappeared at the entrance hatch of the "New World"...
……
"Boom..." The thrusters at the tail of the New Continent roared and started, and slowly drove out of the spaceport with the ambition of the spaceship and the people on Earth.
In the transparent dome below the spaceship, Chris, Alice, the fat man and the thin man watched the huge New World slowly pass by above their heads, and everyone's eyes were extremely bright...
No one knows what Chris said to the three of them, but since today, a small group called "Ghost Brigade" has become active in the virtual world...
