Advanced Players in Arc

Chapter 746 Miner Xiaodong

Helium-3 is rare on the earth, but is stored in large quantities on the moon. The main reason is that the moon serves as a collector of solar wind particles. In the 4 billion years since its formation, 200 million to 500 million tons of helium-3 particles have hit the moon. In the soil 10 to 50 meters deep on the surface of the moon.

Because the moon itself has no magnetic field, helium-3 particles can "set up camp" in the lunar soil.

In contrast, helium-3 particles on Earth slowly diffuse along the Earth's magnetic field lines under the influence of the Earth's magnetic field, and are eventually "captured" by the atmosphere and disappear.

In addition, extracting 1 ton of helium-3 from the lunar soil can also obtain approximately 6,300 tons of hydrogen, 70 tons of nitrogen, and 1,600 tons of carbon. Like many minerals produced in major resource producing areas, these by-products are also necessary to maintain a permanent base on the moon.

In the past, these tasks were done by professional space engineers, but in the future these things will be done by the general public. After all, in the era of great space migration, it will be too much if professional space engineers are required to do these things. What a waste of resources. These people are all trained elites. Obviously, the most cutting-edge planet development is suitable for them.

Therefore, Arclight Group is taking advantage of the immigration experiment this time to allow ordinary people to participate in space construction to see if this matching model is suitable.

Fortunately, except for those very professional jobs that require professionals, many jobs are actually not very professional, or Arclight Group has made them less professional, and even ordinary people can do it.

Just like the bulldozer that Dong Chen wants to drive, it is actually very intelligent, especially the one driven by electric energy. It is easy to drive and you don't even need to learn it. You can master it after just seeing it for a while.

In fact, the Arc Light Group just wants to give ordinary people a job and keep them busy. Otherwise, once people are idle, they may do something to you.

Although they have the strength to do most of the work to intelligent machines, productivity has been greatly improved. Only some tasks that cannot be automated are still done by people, and a very small number of people can feed the majority of people.

But considering Dong Chen's not very high level of thought, why?

If you want to support yourself, then work for yourself.

Heck, just like Dong Chen himself is going to the mine now.

The self-driving vehicle arrived at the mine where they needed to work in a short time. A large part of it had been dug down. It was a large mine pit with several large machines at work.

Super large wheel bucket excavators are constantly digging out the ore. Large forklifts will load the excavated ore into the trucks that are driving over. The trucks will then transport the ore to the refinery. Their work is complete. .

It was Dong Chen's job and his job with No. 1 to use bulldozers to smooth those places that were uneven due to mining and loading work.

At first glance, this place is no different from some open-pit mines on the earth, but the biggest difference is that this is not the earth.

The cockpits of all working equipment are pressure-sealed cabins, because humans need it for work, and the giant machinery here is even bigger than the giant machinery on the earth. Because the gravity here is low, in fact, ore of the same weight will not If the equipment causes damage, it can be built larger so that it can work more efficiently.

Not to mention 6 times the amount with just one shovel, but it's still a lot more.

Of course, this place is just an ordinary metal mining pit on the moon. The helium-3 mine has implemented intelligent automation, so there is no need for them.

There was a small rest base next to the mine. Dong Chen and the others finished changing their clothes and started working inside. With the addition of these 150 people, the Moon entered a rapid development stage without any surprise.

Dong Chen's life on the moon was quite smooth. In other words, there were still few people on the moon, and it was far away from the earth. Naturally, everyone felt friendly when seeing human beings, just like seeing fellow villagers abroad.

So in this way, everyone has more opportunities to communicate and get together from time to time, which makes everyone have a good relationship.

And the arrival of these people has also enriched the lives of the space engineers who came before them but are not considered space immigrants.

It is strange to say that those space engineers came first and there are many of them, but they cannot be regarded as space immigrants. They can only be regarded as astronauts like the scientific researchers of the moon base.

Because they are all professionals.

And in order to keep up with the construction progress, their behavior on the moon really cannot be called "life".

These newcomers are different. Although some of them have gone out to assist the construction plan of the Moon City and use this job to make money to ensure their lives on the moon, these are only some of them.

Others plant flowers, land, and vegetables, as well as open restaurants, shops, bars, and even movie theaters. This movie theater simultaneously screens the latest blockbusters on earth, making the movie's box office go directly out of the box office. The Earth rushes towards the solar system.

In addition to the global box office consisting of North American box office, European box office, Asian box office, etc., the movie will have another lunar box office.

For example, the box office in North America is hundreds of millions, the box office in Asia is hundreds of millions, and the moon box office is 1,376 yuan and 29 cents...

Hey, there is a discount.

Like this, having a variety of jobs, a variety of lives, and a variety of entertainment is called life.

After these people came, their various occupations also enriched the lives of these space engineers, allowing them to have other places to go after work, instead of just staying in the dormitory.

And because of their professionalism, although they are not the first batch of immigrants and their lives are relatively boring, their wages are very high and they are all wealthy people.

With their participation, well, the economic development of the small circle here will be even better.

Similarly, the lives of these space engineers have become rich and colorful, and gradually they are no different from these immigrants, so they naturally become the "second batch" of immigrants on the moon.

Even the process took less than two weeks.

After this small piece of lunar city was successfully put into operation, tourist flights to the moon started again. This time tourists will no longer fly to the Arclight Group's lunar scientific research base that is "unsuitable for play", but will land directly to The interstellar airport in Moon City begins a new journey to the moon in the "very suitable for play" Moon City.

As for Dong Mu and Miss Yiyi, due to physical reasons, they had to return to Earth to recuperate after staying on the moon for two weeks, because their bodies were really too weak!
