Chapter 528 Exploring Venus

While Fang Ping and others were busy developing the Mars economy.

As Venus and Mercury in the core area of ​​the solar system, Venus and Mercury are within the administrative jurisdiction of the Solar Territory. The capital of the Solar Territory is built on the synchronous orbiting space station of Venus.

Gagomendeleev looked depressed at this time. As the political commissar of the Council of the People's Revolutionary League, he was responsible for the area of ​​​​the Sun Territory.

The problem is that the Sun Territory is really cheating. It seems to have the main sequence star Sun, the first orbiting planet Mercury, and the second orbiting planet Venus, but these three are not fuel-efficient.

Needless to say about the sun, as a star, the sun is destined to be difficult to use. At most, we can only build some orbiting space cities. The problem is that it is too close to the sun, and the danger rises linearly. Natural stellar phenomena such as solar storms, As a result, the space city must keep its protective shield open 24 hours a day, otherwise it will be scorched by the grumpy sun every minute.

Mercury can only be used as an iron ore producing area. Currently, there is only one city on Mercury - Mercury North Pole City, because only the North Pole region of Mercury is a relatively comfortable area. There is a permanent overcast area in the crater in the North Pole region of Mercury. Avoid direct sunlight.

The Mercury North Pole City is built in a crater at the North Pole of Mercury. It is also very small in scale, with less than 300 permanent personnel and some workers from mining companies there.

As for Venus, Sunland has built two synchronous orbiting space stations and a ground scientific research base so far.

The geology of Venus is active, with densely packed active volcanoes, and the main component of the atmosphere is sulfuric acid. Even after using genetic armor, humans can survive on the ground of Venus. The problem is that in this environment, except for mining and official personnel, who would bother to come to Venus? Looking for abuse?

Gagomendeleev looked at the completed Mars ring and suddenly became envious and jealous. How could he be assigned such a cheating field?

He quickly summoned several district chiefs to discuss how to develop the Sun Territory. It couldn't be a mining star, right? Especially for Venus, an earth-like planet, it would be a pity if it was to be used as a mining star.

In addition, the number of people in their Sun Territory is pitifully small, with a total population of just over 26,000. Compared to the Mars Territory, which has a total population of more than 5 million, it is pitifully small.

Gagomendeleev looked at Mercury District Mayor Pu Zhan, Venus District Mayor Chu Haisheng, and Venus Orbital City Mayor Hathaway who had already appeared in the holographic conference room. He knocked on the table and said: "As for the development plan of the Sun Territory, What suggestions do you have?"

Pu Zhan, Chu Haisheng, and Hathaway looked at each other, not knowing how to answer this topic for a while.

"How about we also build a Venus ring?" Pu Zhan said bravely.

"But Venus is geologically active, with frequent volcanic eruptions, and there is no asteroid belt in the core area of ​​the Sun Territory. We don't have enough resources. We can't exploit the resources of Mercury and Venus to build the Venus ring, right? In this case, the investment will be too high. Yes." Chu Haisheng reminded.

Gagomendeleev also pressed his temple with a headache.

"Actually, Venus is not incapable of transformation." Hathaway thought for a while and said.

"Oh? Hathaway, what do you think?" Gagomendeleev asked quickly.

"According to research by Alliance researchers, we found that the environments of Venus and Blue Stars in the early solar system were similar, but about 3.3 billion years ago, a huge asteroid hit Venus, which not only caused the rotation direction of Venus to change from its West to east became east to west, and the rotation speed dropped to an extreme," Hathaway continued.

"I know this, but what does this have to do with our development of Venus?" Pu Zhan asked confused.

Hathaway continued: "Listen to me, the rotation speed of the planet is related to the strength of the planet's magnetic field. The faster the rotation speed of the planet, coupled with its large-mass iron-nickel core, it can produce a stronger magnetic field. This is why Mercury's magnetic field is stronger than Venus' magnetic field, and that's because Mercury spins faster than Venus."

"You mean to increase the magnetic field strength of Venus by increasing the rotation speed of Venus?" Gagomendeleev almost understood.

"This plan is quite difficult!" Chu Haisheng frowned.

"The difficulty is not small, but this is a once-and-for-all solution. At least we can change the magnetic field of Venus to what we need. If we use an artificial magnetic field, it will consume huge amounts of energy all the time. Although the alliance is not short of energy now, It's a huge waste after all," Hathaway explained.

Gagomendeleev thought for a while, but neither agreed nor objected: "We need to let professional experts and scholars verify this plan. After all, we are not sure whether strengthening the magnetic field of Venus will affect the blue star. We must consider the consequences. .”

"The committee member is right. After all, this is transforming a planet, and the impact is not trivial." Chu Haisheng also expressed his agreement with Gagomendeleev's idea.

Gagomendeleev thought for a while and then ordered: "Hathaway, please prepare your plan. I will report this matter to the board of directors and convene an expert demonstration meeting at an appropriate date."

"Okay." Hathaway nodded.

[Owner! There is a text message (ω). ]

Huang Junjie put down the book in his hand, opened the holographic system and started browsing. After a while, he raised his eyebrows: "Venus transformation plan? Zhong, what did the council say?"

[Master, the board of directors is still discussing. Chairman Fang has the same opinion as Gagomendeleev, and they want to organize an expert demonstration meeting to discuss the possible impact of the modification of Venus’ magnetic field, especially the impact on Blue Star. ]

Huang Junjie couldn't comment, and read the report carefully. Half an hour later, he ordered: "Zhong, continue to pay attention to this matter, and let me know the results."

[╭()Okay!]

Huang Junjie continued to pick up the book on the side. After completing the research and development of knowledge chips at the end of 2020, he returned to Blue Star for vacation. At this time, he was traveling in Vladivostok.

Of course, Huang Junjie's travels are very secretive. As the most mysterious man in the Human Revolutionary League, his countless stand-in robots are busy in various places.

Vladivostok in February was still covered in ice and snow. The vacuum railway connecting Hokkaido and Sakhalin brought a different kind of vitality to the city.

However, with the beginning of the great voyage of space, the population of Blue Star is immigrating to other planets in the solar system. The current population of the Alliance in non-Blue Star areas has reached a new high, reaching 36 million people.

In particular, the Mars Territory has become the largest immigration area for many people at the bottom. After all, many people are eager to change the status quo, and alien territories such as the Mars Territory represent more opportunities, which is also an important factor in attracting immigrants. reason.

After genetic enhancement technology is combined with genetic armor, humans can now live on most terrestrial planets without any hindrance.

Development opportunities + survivable technology promote the great migration of the universe.

The book Huang Haojie is reading is called "Sociology in the Interstellar Era". This is a book published by the Soth people in the interstellar age. He has been reading books in this area recently, not only about the Soth civilization, but also the Anluo civilization. , as a leader of civilization, he must see clearly the general trend of the times in order to bring human civilization further.
