Interstellar Immortality: Live long enough to dominate the universe

"Ella is generating a plan, the plan generation is over..."

"The best plan is to design this shuttle-shaped spacecraft, which has a beautiful appearance and is equipped with entertainment areas, dining areas, accommodation areas, fitness areas, etc."

"The spacecraft is 122.4 meters long, 18.3 meters wide, and 14.9 meters high. There are 5 electromagnetic thrusters, and the maximum speed of the spacecraft can reach 2s."

Yan Xia looked at the corner of his mouth and twitched. There was no way, it was too gorgeous.

This is just like a cruise ship, the Titanic in the universe.

"I want faster."

"Ella is generating a plan, the plan generation is over..."

"It has been adjusted to the latest plan, which prioritizes speed. The spacecraft is 332.5 meters long, 67.1 meters wide, and 55 meters high. There are 11 electromagnetic thrusters, and the maximum speed of the spacecraft can reach 875.9km/s."

Even so, it still takes 1446 years to reach Proxima Centauri.

"It still can't reach it."

At this time, Ella answered again, and it turned on the resident voice listening.

"You can also produce a dormant cryochamber to help you reach your destination in deep sleep."

This is the best solution Ella can give.

As an engineer, Yan Xia knows that if he wants to get a better solution, he can only improve computing power.

But it is impossible. Computing power requires huge power consumption to support it, and this spacecraft cannot provide it...

"Wait!"

Yan Xia thought of something.

"Ella, can you make a controlled nuclear fusion device?"

With Ella's current computing power, it is not impossible to calculate controlled nuclear fusion. After all, in 2037, humans are not far from controlled nuclear fusion, and they can be manufactured in 100 years at most.

Humans have actually perfected the plan for controlled nuclear fusion. The only thing that limits humans from achieving controlled nuclear fusion is thermal insulation and superconducting materials.

The high temperature caused by nuclear fusion can reach tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of degrees Celsius.

Controlled nuclear fusion is still boiling water, and heat energy is converted into kinetic energy, so the manufacturing of materials is the biggest problem.

"Totally feasible!"

Ella's answer made Yan Xia excited. As long as the energy limit is broken, Ella can grow infinitely, and his chances of survival in the universe will be greatly improved.

"Then set sail!"

"Go to the asteroid belt and use the resources in the asteroid belt to make a controlled nuclear fusion device!"

The spacecraft unfolded the solar panels and changed the course with the help of the booster.

...

100 days.

This is a digitizable time.

It took Yan Xia 100 days to reach the asteroid belt.

When he saw the asteroid belt, he was so excited that he almost cried.

After all, every day is too boring. Talking to an AI all day long, even if you play games, you can only play stand-alone games. The various chat app avatars on the phone have turned gray.

Entering the asteroid belt, the spacecraft stopped next to an asteroid with a diameter of 12 kilometers. There are many impact craters on the surface of this asteroid, and a kind of metallic reflection appears in the impact craters.

"Analyze the composition of the asteroid!"

The spacecraft has several high-pixel cameras, which were originally prepared for Ella.

Not long after.

"After analysis, the main elements of this asteroid are iron, followed by magnesium, and a small amount of copper and aluminum."

"Magnesium and aluminum can be used to make light metal alloys, which can be used to make large robot shells. Needless to say, iron, steel will occupy our main production capacity in the future."

"Yan Xia, we can build a factory on this asteroid."

Yan Xia asked Ella to call him by his name directly, which was at least more intimate and made Ella more like a person.

Ella installed chatGPT15.8 version, and she can sometimes give human-like answers.

The content of metal elements such as iron, magnesium, copper, and aluminum in the universe is not small.

Yan Xia also thinks this asteroid is more suitable. Although there are some dwarf planets in the asteroid belt, those dwarf planets are not as easy to develop as these asteroids.

The spacecraft landed on the surface of the asteroid under Ella's control.

Yan Xia also integrated the materials of the entire spacecraft in the previous 100 days.

He pushed out a huge 3D printer from the warehouse. This 3D printer weighed at least 1 density. Yan Xia took a look at the model.

"C9200, it's actually the flagship 3D printer."

"So rich."

This 3D printer costs about 7 million, and it has the ability to independently print metal products.

He connected the printer's line to the main engine of the spacecraft.

"Ella, control this 3D printer."

"Start making mining robots."

Yan Xia also thoroughly understood how to make controlled nuclear fusion in these three months.

Although he only understood it roughly, he also knew how to climb the technology tree.

He found several large devices in the spacecraft, which almost occupied most of the space of the spacecraft.

One is a greenhouse instrument, and the other is a water-gas conversion device.

These two things serve the things in another warehouse.

Seed warehouse!

The main task of this spacecraft is to determine the possibility of Mars immigration, so it carries a large number of seeds.

This is good news for Yan Xia.

Because there is not much food in the spaceship, most of it is compressed biscuits and the like. He has been saving money for the past three months, hoping to find some materials to synthesize nutrient solution when he reaches the asteroid belt.

Now that he has the seeds of these plants, the problem is solved.

The two most important seeds are rice and soybean seeds, which are staple foods with huge yields, sources of carbon water and protein.

Yan Xia has some understanding of the storage methods of plant seeds.

These seeds have not been deeply processed, and there may be some insect eggs hidden in them. These insect eggs sleeping in the seeds may be the only earth animals he can see in the future except himself.

But now, he can't use these things.

So he mercilessly disassembled two pieces of equipment that may be related to whether he can eat these plants in the future and threw them into the 3D printer.

"No way."

"Now it is more important to control nuclear fusion and a real spaceship."

The speed of the 3D printer is very slow.

About a week later, Yan Xia got a batch of parts.

He put the parts together and connected them with the wires he had disassembled before.

A small robot about 40 centimeters high was completed.

It has an arm claw on the left and a drill on the right. It moves by tracks, plus several mechanical claws extending out, which can be fixed on the surface of an asteroid with almost no gravity.

"Is this thing really useful?"

He was a little skeptical because it was too small.

"Don't worry, Yan Xia, although this robot is small, I can control it directly."

"With my Ella's IQ, even a broken stone can be turned into gold."

Let's believe it for now.

Due to the scarcity of batteries, this small robot uses a cable connection.

Yan Xia had to do some space operations and go to the outside of the spacecraft to connect the external power supply.

This was the first time in his life that he worked in outer space.

He closed the oxygen valve and put on the space suit. Although he was a little awkward, fortunately he had been to the air show and understood some basics, at least he was not completely ignorant.

After tying the rope tightly, he walked to the hatch, took a deep breath, and twisted it open.

The gas in the cabin instantly overflowed, and his whole body was pushed and directly suspended in space, and the rope on his body was stretched straight.

He hurriedly pulled the rope and went back, and he felt relieved when his hand touched the surface of the spacecraft.

This spacecraft is his only safe haven now.

He fumbled and found the external power port with Ella's prompts.

The robot was still in the cabin, but the cable was around his waist. He took it off and inserted it to lock the connection. Just as he was about to return to the interior of the spacecraft.

Suddenly his mask was hit by a beam of light.

The next moment, this high-energy beam slightly deviated to his space suit.

"Ziziziz!"

His space suit actually melted.
