In addition to doing a good job of defense, there is no better option.
The deterrent of Aurora-20 in the face of the present world does not apply to the Northern Union. Although the Aurora-20 did not detect the presence of fighter units in the United Territory, they inherited the Pan-Asian cooperation technology, which could pose a fatal threat to the Aurora-20 with ground-based air defense missiles and laser air defense weapons.
If the war breaks out, the battlefields of both sides will no doubt be on the ground.
After staying in the last days for three days, Jiang Chen returned to the world.
This time he brought back ten Aurora-20s, which were newly manufactured by the Sixth Block Military Factory, and the k1 mechanical exoskeleton production line newly built by the Zhao Group.
The mechanical exoskeleton of the previous world was produced by the military factory in the sixth block, and then Jiang Chen acted as a porter to pour the materials over there. However, now the end of the world must bear the pressure from the United District, but also to distribute a small number of production capacity to serve the world, but it is somewhat stretched.
Now the future military industry has begun to see the scale, fully capable of integrating this production line. Following the Hummingbird drone, another set of 22nd century arms production line has settled in Anga Island.
The whole set of production equipment with tens of thousands of square meters was rolled out. Jiang Chen chose the coconut island he used to stop the water droplets as the “transportation warehouse”. After transferring all the equipment to the island, Jiang Chen called the Xinghuan trade transport ship, dispatched the frigate to escort, and transported the equipment to the island of Anga without pulling it down.
With the manpower and resources of the end of the world, there are obvious bottlenecks in the development of the industry. However, this bottleneck does not exist for future groups of people. In the future, the mining industry will send a steady stream of ore to Xinma Special Zone, which will be rough processed by the steel plant of Xinma Special Zone and then transported to Anga Island. The future People's Army will return these finished steels to the furnace, refine the steel and pour it into the grinding tools.
A more sophisticated internal structure will also be completed by the factory on the island of Anga.
All the mechanical exoskeleton produced can not only fill the gap in the equipment of the current expansion of the foreign corps, but also in turn meet the needs of the three major corps of the end of the world. Because there is no war for a long time, the exoskeleton penetration rate of several corps in the last days is not as good as the world.
I believe that this situation will soon improve.
......
It has been two weeks since the beginning of the lunar colonization program. It can be seen from the images returned from the moon that the lunar colony of the Guanghan City has begun to take shape.
Several long barracks were placed on the edge of the crater, and the colonists wearing spacesuits set up solar generators on the open space. Before the nuclear fusion generators were sent to the city of Guanghan, they could only rely on solar energy to obtain the energy to sustain the colony.
The mining stations not far away are the mines that drill lunar ice and the mines that collect the lunar soil.
Lunar ice is one of the sources of drinking water in the colonies and is also a major source of oxygen in the colonies. The oxygen tank carried on the spacecraft is only enough for the twenty-four colonists to survive for a week, and all the oxygen will be obtained by the electrolysis of water in the following period.
From the current point of view, this is the lowest cost way to get oxygen. 1 l of water electrolysis can produce 0.6 cubic meters of oxygen, and 1.25 cubic meters of hydrogen. According to the 15% air oxygen content, the pure oxygen consumed per person per day is only 0.5 cubic meters under normal atmospheric pressure. As for the by-product hydrogen, it will be stored in a special container to generate methanol and a small amount of water under the high temperature catalyst with the carbon dioxide produced by the respiration.
Methanol will be used in the production as an industrial raw material.
This creates a simple loop.
Of course, Jiang Chen sent them to the moon, not just to let them solve the problem of how to live. Every day, in addition to driving a lunar rover to explore and maintain these living facilities, they also shoulder the task of assisting ground researchers in conducting scientific research.
And in all the research projects, as the key, it is about the collection project of 氦3!
The small mine that cuts the moon is carrying such a heavy responsibility.
Because there is no global "dipole magnetic field" protection on the moon, the solar wind containing carbon, nitrogen, and rare gas ions such as helium, neon, argon, and thorium can drive straight in, and continuously bombard the lunar surface and enter the lunar surface particles. The soil contains a considerable amount of strontium.
As for the value of this energy, there is a set of data that can be visually represented. 1 kg 氦 3, if used to generate electricity, can generate 19 megawatts of energy, enough for the Moscow city to use lighting for 6 years. And only need 10 tons of 氦3, the power generation will be enough for the whole country to use for the previous year!
In addition, for every ton of helium-3 extracted from the lunar soil, 6,300 tons of hydrogen, 70 tons of nitrogen and 1,600 tons of carbon are obtained. However, the value of these by-products is negligible compared to the value of the former.
The moon soil itself is also a mineral rich in aluminum, iron, magnesium, titanium and rare earth metals.
Nuclear fusion power generation technology has already existed in Jiangchen. The power source of Penglai City is the nuclear fusion generator that was obtained from the end of Yizhou Island and several storage tanks. What needs to be solved now is how to efficiently extract those 氦3 from the lunar soil.
This is also one of the main tasks of these colonial pioneers and researchers.
In this way, the colony of 24 people in the district spent a billion SGD.
However, he believes that all these money are worthwhile.
After reading the image, Kerwin found Jiang Chen.
"The US Nasa hopes that we can open up the life of the colonists and share the investigation of the moon. They are willing to exchange this information with us for a file that has not been disclosed to the United Nations Space Division."
"Is that information important? I mean theirs." Jiang Chen asked.
Kervin thought for a moment and replied.
“Not very important, nasa officials revealed that the undisclosed archives are mainly about the analysis of the Klip rock and the distribution of the 氦3 reservoirs in the lunar soil. These things are also being studied by our researchers, but I don’t know. Which step did they study?"
"There is no need to exchange information with them. I believe that you will walk in front of them." Jiang Chen finished, paused for a while, and then said, "But the life of the colonists can be made public, after all, this is also part of the propaganda. Online is not a rumor that is smashing us, saying that the astronauts are all white mice, are they dead now? Shooting a short documentary of their lives is a powerful counterattack! As for what content can be made public and which must be kept secret, I I think you should be clear."
"You can rest assured." Kervin smiled and nodded.
After explaining this, Jiang Chen was preparing to leave, but Kervin seemed to think of something like it and stopped him.
Jiang Chen turned back and asked.
"What else?"
"There is one more thing. Two days ago, our Space Launch Center received a request for a visit from the UK." Kerwin replied.
“Visit application? Do we have to receive a stack of applications every day?” Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"This person's identity is a bit special. I am not good to refuse directly, I have to ask your opinion." Kervin said cautiously.
"Who? Is it the Queen of England?" Jiang Chen teased.
"No, it is Hawking." (To be continued.)
