    The silent and huge Deep Space One space station is like a loyal space steel guardian above the earth. The surface of the entire hexagonal hollow structure is covered with a solar grating matrix covering an area of ??more than 30 square kilometers, providing this  Huge and silent warriors provide the energy to survive and function.

    The new super nuclear fission battery pack device at the inner core is the core power of the entire space station. When necessary, it can provide ultra-high output power of up to several thousand megawatts to drive the space station to perform orbital spaceflight within the galaxy.  flight.  Of course, as usual, Deep Space One cannot use such a large amount of power. Most of the time, it is used as a static airport.

    The Lunar Toad Palace No. 6 spacecraft that Li Zhe was on set off from Port 3 of the space station. When the communication between the two parties was completed and the energy at the electromagnetic anchor point was cut off at the same time, the spacecraft was suspended in the air, and the six symmetrical jet engines at the tail also lit up at the same time.  , generating a megawatt-level output power in an instant, the huge size of the spacecraft started with a bang, set off, and flew towards the moon.

    Nowadays, it is the time when the competition for space development resources among various countries is the most intense. Li Zhe came here precisely to inspect the construction and development of the lunar base.

    Competition between any country is ultimately a competition based on a certain degree of strength. When the gap in strength is too far, it doesn¡¯t matter whether there is competition or not.

    As a satellite without an atmosphere, the moon has long been subject to direct collisions with materials from the universe. Billions of years of accumulation have made the moon's surface rich in various energy materials, including more rare elements than the earth. Nuclear materials are richer and easier to mine.  The level is simply not on the same order of magnitude as on Earth. If you spend 10 million yuan on Earth to collect and purify nuclear raw materials, here you may just bend down and pick them up directly.  Therefore, in this era where energy dominates the world and nuclear energy is widely used, the competition for lunar development is undoubtedly an extremely realistic competition.  Not to mention the huge strategic role of the moon itself in the military.

    Therefore, when other countries on the earth were in turmoil due to the supernatural incident, the first thing Li Zhe did when he returned to his homeland was to inspect the development of the moon.

    In this current earth.  The forms of political struggle have become diverse, and force and military threats are no longer the only means. Economics, finance, energy, communications, and even the Internet and social public opinion have all been included in the competition for national strength.  Any of these methods used to the extreme can destroy a country's political power.

    Therefore, the competition in this era is a multi-faceted and comprehensive competition. Li Zhe, the dictator of the regime, appears more like a generalist scientist than a politician.

    Toad Palace No. 6 is a general-purpose spacecraft.  Different from ordinary scientific research or mining spacecraft, she is larger, more powerful, and more comfortable. In just ten seconds of acceleration, she has already passed through the huge shadow of Deep Space One. Look  To the distant red sun.

    The sun in space.  It also looks different from the one on Earth. On Earth, it looks so blazing and bright that the physical star is almost invisible under the countless rays of light. At this moment, it looks more like a big fireball, with a deeper orange-red color on the surface, quiet.  Warmth hanging in the dark space, as docile as a baby.

    If it weren¡¯t for the traces of the corona and solar wind that can be clearly distinguished by the naked eye on the surface, they are scattering wildly into space.  It makes people want to take a bite.

    At this time, you would never have imagined that such a quiet fireball would dominate the radius of billions of kilometers around us, including eight planets and at least hundreds of known satellites and dwarf planets.  and a vast world of billions of other small celestial bodies.  Her growth, changes, and even every breath affects the vast space around her.  It also nurtures all life in this space.

    Human beings may be growing very fast, but they will always be a drop in the bucket compared to the sun.

    The spacecraft continued to fly, and the sun quickly flashed through the portholes. Li Zhe and his entourage were fixed in their seats. Looking back on the scene just now, they all had emotions on their faces, but the astronauts in the driving seat in front  , but it seemed like there was no reaction.  Obviously, the world in the eyes of astronauts is very different from that of people on the ground.

    After more than two hours of sailing, the situation began to change, and people felt a vague sense of restraint.  A huge shadow appeared above the spaceship. At the very side of the shadow, the reflected sunlight still gave people a clue. The moon appeared in everyone's field of vision.

    Cold and lonely, this is the impression the moon gives people at first glance. The mottled light shining on the surface of the moon makes the moon look even colder.

    ?? Toad Palace 6 began to change its orbit, flying around the moon, looking for incomingObviously, a series of changes in gravity can still be clearly felt by superhumans like Li Zhe.

    Soon, the spacecraft turned an angle, and people began to feel that the gravity was getting stronger and stronger. The surface of the moon became clearer and clearer, and the orbit of the spacecraft became lower and lower. After flying in the moon's orbit for one and a half times,  , the spacecraft began to land in the central bay of the moon. At this time, the orbit was lowered to a distance of several kilometers, and people noticed the difference in the moon.

    In the distance, at the landing site of the spacecraft, more and more artificial buildings began to appear, neatly spread out on the plain of the central bay of the moon, like guards waiting for review.  Around these man-made buildings, a huge circular linear trace is clearly visible, encompassing almost the entire Central Bay, with a radius of hundreds of kilometers.

    Then, with a bang, the spacecraft trembled and landed on the surface. When the hull was finally stabilized, the hatch was opened, and the captain led Li Zhe and others out of the hatch and stepped onto the surface of the earth. In front of them was a large artificial square with thousands of people.  Personnel wearing spacesuits lined up to wait for him:

    "Welcome to Guanghan Palace Base, Your Majesty!"

    ¡­¡­

    The huge Guanghan Palace base is the first permanent space base on the moon. It covers a vast area and covers almost one-third of the central bay. The artificial buildings with a uniform height of only two or three floors on the surface are undulating, covering this area.  A vast lunar surface.  Among them, there is only one giant spire building that stands out independently. It is the rooftop, navigation station and communication command center of the entire base.

    "Your Majesty! I want to tell you the good news! The construction of the first phase of the Guanghan Palace Base is about to be completed. Recently, manpower and resources have been relatively abundant. We have started the construction of the second phase of the project ahead of schedule!" The person in charge of the base, the Expeditionary Force  The old man, Lieutenant General Ouyang Ming, a famous scientist who was kidnapped by Li Zhe from modern time and space and returned to the Three Kingdoms time and space, came up to speak.

    What, the second phase of the project has already started?  Li Zhe was stunned when he heard this.  Then he reacted,

    "Oh? It's the outer layer of shield, right?" He remembered the huge circular mark he saw just now in the air.

    Ouyang Ming happily explained:

    "Yes! That's the protective shield. It's still in the foundation stage now. When our protective shield is built, the living standards and work efficiency of our base can be greatly improved, and it can truly become a permanent space base.  ¡±

    "Oh, that's it!" Li Zhe replied, he personally approved the Guanghan Palace base construction plan.  Of course, knowing the role of the protective shield on the periphery of this base, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the core building of any permanent space base.  However, its function is not the legendary ability to withstand bombardment or neutralize energy ion beams.  That's too science fiction. The main function of current protective shields is to resist cosmic radiation and separate the natural environment.  A small closed environment is artificially established in the space environment.

    Inside the protective cover, humans can simulate an environment similar to the earth and an ecological greenhouse, and establish an artificial space ecological chain, thereby obtaining a more comfortable living environment for humans, so that these astronauts can work better and more efficiently.

    Any space base, no matter how perfect its internal facilities are, has not built such a building before.  They can only be semi-permanent bases. Only by establishing a protective shield and creating a complete closed-loop internal environment can the entire base have the ability to maintain long-term independent operation in space.  Therefore, this can also be said to be the most important building in the construction of the space base.

    However, the scale of such an important building is naturally very large, at least several square kilometers in size and hundreds of meters high.  There are considerable requirements for transparency, so it has always been a difficult problem for people on earth in the process of space development.  The solutions are also diverse.

    At the beginning, the United States had an absolute technological advantage in this regard. They first chose glass as the material, supplemented by alloy steel as the bracket. Later, the construction cost was too high.  The construction period was too long and the performance was unsatisfactory. We had to try other polymer compounds, such as polyethylene.  Aldehyde ester compounds are used as materials to make soft protective covers.

    However, in recent years, with the advancement of genetic technology and bioengineering technology, biopolymer materials have become more and more popular. A new technology newly developed in the ASEAN bioscience community can use biopolymer materials to make semi-permeable membranes.  It is a flexible film that provides the ideal performance of a traditional protective cover, but also has the additional invisibility ability, that is, the ability to absorb space detection electromagnetic waves.  This can be regarded as the biggest breakthrough in materials science in recent years, and naturally it was quickly applied to the construction of this lunar base.

    There is no doubt that the huge circular circle Li Zhe saw on the spacecraft was the site of the protective shield under construction.base.  With it, the next time I come back, at least I won't have to wear this clumsy spacesuit in the base.

    Li Zhe was very happy,

    "Haha! I said it's OK here! Ouyang! The construction is going very fast, beyond our expected speed. What's going on? Ordinarily the manpower is sufficient, but these materials are transported from the earth to the moon every day  Come on, with such a long distance and such a small transport volume, it shouldn't be possible!" After thinking about it carefully, Li Zhe was a little surprised.  This artificial structure of several square kilometers in front of us, such a large small city group, was built so quickly?

    Ouyang suddenly smiled from ear to ear, "Speaking of this, haha! Your Majesty, do you still remember those small equipment production lines we originally requested? I started putting them to use in the first week they were shipped!"

    Then after a pause, Ouyang looked at Li Zhe's confused look and continued:

    "Your Majesty! You don't know that there are not only more energy substances on the moon, but also a lot of ordinary elemental ores, and they are much easier to mine than on the earth.

    Because they have not undergone weathering and sedimentation on the earth, various mineral deposits are everywhere on the moon. As long as you find the right place, you almost don¡¯t have to dig at all. Moreover, the heavy element ores on the moon, such as iron ore, etc.  , because its mineralization reasons are completely different from those on the earth, there are no such complex chemical reactions at all, and it is extremely simple to separate.

    Almost all of the iron ores on the surface are the simplest iron oxide, which can be directly reduced to a very high purity. Collecting resources on the moon is much simpler than on the earth.  In fact, to build a base on the moon, most materials do not need to be transported from the earth at all, just rely on yourself!  This naturally greatly reduced the originally expected construction period.  The moon is really a real cornucopia for us humans on earth!  "(To be continued.)
