Universe dominance

Chapter 209, Space Affairs Bureau

When Chinese scientists were conducting scientific research on Mars, they discovered the existence of extraterrestrial life deep in the Antarctic ice layer of Mars. Although there were only some microorganisms, this was one of the most significant discoveries of this century. This also means that life is widely present in planets and worlds other than Earth. Scientists boldly predicted that aliens definitely exist and Earth is definitely not the only planet with life in the universe.

The news of the discovery of extraterrestrial life on Mars was quickly transmitted to Earth. The official media of China reported the matter in detail, and Liu Yi also submitted an analysis and research report of the news to the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The microbial community on Mars has been thriving for hundreds of millions of years, because under the thick Antarctic ice cap of Mars, it can be said to be very stable. It has hardly undergone any major changes over the long years, and the number of microbial populations is very large.

Relying on the heat and minerals of the Martian volcanic eruption to survive, a prosperous microscopic world has been bred under the Antarctic ice cap of Mars. However, after all, in a place like Mars, microorganisms can survive, but it is impossible to evolve more complex life.

The history of human exploration of the universe and the origin of life has once again taken a big step forward. Recently, Chinese scientists discovered liquid water under the Antarctic ice layer of Mars while taking the "Ocean" spacecraft for a scientific expedition to Mars, and found a large microbial community in the liquid water. These microbial communities indicate the existence of extraterrestrial life, and also mean that the earth and humans are definitely not alone in the universe. This is the most important discovery of this century.

Foreign news media also gave a lot of praise for this, but the Chinese can still clearly see a sour taste in their words.

In the past, major scientific advances or major technological discoveries on Earth were basically made by Europeans and Americans. This can be seen from the various units named after Europeans and Americans, such as Hull, Hertz, Joule, etc. The most basic and most important discoveries in the fields of physics, biology, and chemistry, such as biological evolution, Newton's laws, relativity, periodic table, etc., were also made by Europeans and Americans. After all, they are the origin of modern science.

But now, with the discovery of extraterrestrial life, landing on Mars, space technology, biotechnology and many other fields, Europeans and Americans have found that they have gradually fallen behind. This major discovery of extraterrestrial life has made Europeans and Americans feel that the focus of science and technology seems to be slowly shifting to China, and the development of science and technology in the new era is led by China.

"In the field of science and technology that we used to be proud of, we had too many, too many scientific terms named after ourselves, but now, I don’t know what happened, we have gradually fallen behind China too much, maybe in the future we will find more and more scientific terms named after Chinese people, which has to be said to be a kind of sadness!"

The Western media have conducted in-depth reflections on this, because China has emerged in the field of science and technology in recent years, from the new field of biotechnology virus led by Li Fu to the field of virtual technology and technology, and then to the field of space technology, China has gradually led Europe and the United States.

Although Chinese people have always disliked naming things after themselves, otherwise if they learn from Europeans and Americans, they can come up with a lot of them, such as the field of biotechnology first discovered by Li Fu, which can be called Li's field, Li's law, Li Fu virus, etc.

Of course, the discovery of extraterrestrial life has no impact on the lives of ordinary people on Earth. At most, everyone knows that there is life in unexpected places on Earth, and perhaps aliens will visit Earth in the future.

But for countries around the world, this impact is very huge. The existence of extraterrestrial life and the absence of extraterrestrial life are absolutely two different things, which is enough to make countries around the world pay great attention to it.

Extraterrestrial life has been discovered on Mars. You must know that in the past, Mars should belong to a desolate, cold, and lifeless world. Such a planet with harsh conditions actually has extraterrestrial life.

So in the universe, if there are some planets with better conditions than Mars, does it mean that there will be aliens and alien civilizations? Earthlings and Earth civilizations are definitely not unique.

How should the Earth face aliens and alien civilizations? What will aliens and alien civilizations do to Earthlings? How should Earth civilization treat alien civilizations and aliens? These issues are very worthy of deep thought.

Other countries don't know, but in China, when Tang Yunshan received the news, the Chinese government quickly established an agency, the Space Affairs Bureau, which specializes in studying extraterrestrial life and formulating corresponding policies for aliens and alien civilizations.

China is different from the past. It is now the most powerful country on Earth and the most powerful country in the field of space. Logically speaking, once an alien civilization is encountered, China should be the first to contact it, so all aspects must be prepared in advance.

The Space Affairs Bureau has two main tasks at this stage. The first is to find alien civilizations. The existence of extraterrestrial life can basically determine that there must be aliens and alien civilizations in the universe. It's just that I don't know if the earth is too remote, or the universe is too vast, and it is too difficult to contact each other. So until now, the earth has not officially contacted alien civilizations.

Of course, there is another possibility. Maybe the technological level of the earth is too low. Even if there are alien civilizations visiting the earth, the people on the earth still don’t know about it. This kind of inference makes people shudder, because falling behind in technology means being beaten. , people on earth must not leave their destiny in the hands of others.

In addition to searching for extraterrestrial life and extraterrestrial civilizations, another job of the Space Affairs Bureau is to study how to interact with extraterrestrial civilizations, how to defend the earth and the solar system when encountering powerful satellite civilizations, and how to defend weak alien civilizations. Should we learn from the Europeans and start an interstellar colonization in the interstellar era?

These things seem to be very far away from us. After all, we just discovered some microorganisms on Mars. But Tang Yunshan knows that anything that is forewarned will lead to failure. If so, it will definitely be too late.

Another thing is that the speed of technological development is really too fast. A few years ago, everyone was still looking up at the moon and imagining Chang'e on the moon. But just a few years later, we have become accustomed to lunar tourism.

We are still imagining the void of the universe, imagining what aliens and alien civilizations will look like. Maybe in a few years, we can really go out of the solar system, enter the interstellar universe, and see countless alien civilizations. All of this is possible of.

Therefore, Tang Yunshan, who was once the person in charge of China's space field and is now China's No. 1, has a very far-sighted vision. He is already laying the foundation for the future. He does not want to see China being embarrassed when dealing with alien civilizations in the future. Relive the humiliating history of more than a hundred years ago.

The establishment of the Space Affairs Bureau does not seem to have much effect now, but this is also China's preparation for entering the interstellar universe era in the future. In addition, Tang Yunshan also opposed all opinions and decided to launch the space battleship project as soon as possible. To implement it, China must have strong space military power.

Only in this way can we have enough power to ensure our own interests in the changing cosmic waves in the future. Even if an alien civilization really wants to invade the solar system or invade the earth, it will have the power to compete with it instead of having nothing at all. The power of resistance.

In the outer space of Mars in the solar system, spacecraft No. 1 and No. 2 have successfully returned from Mars to the "Ocean" spacecraft. The two spacecrafts have traveled back and forth to Mars many times and collected a large number of Martian samples. These samples will be of great help to scientists in their comprehensive understanding of Mars.

The scientific expedition to Mars can basically be declared over. The harvest has been huge. We have accurately known the amount of water resources stored on Mars. We also know that Mars is actually a very barren planet, and its mineral resources are not even as good as those of the moon.

However, scientists have now determined that Mars is indeed suitable to transform into a living planet and a new home suitable for human habitation, because although Mars has poor resources, it has a large amount of water and carbon dioxide. Water is the source of life. Everything else is easy to say.

Of course, the most important gain is the discovery of extraterrestrial life under the ice at the South Pole of Mars, which proves that the earth and its people are definitely not the only ones in the universe. The universe is so vast, and there are countless stars and planets. There will definitely be There is a consensus among scientists on Earth about the existence of aliens and alien civilizations.

"It's time to leave. The next target is Ceres in the asteroid belt."

Chen Bin came to Li Fu's side lightly and stayed on Mars for more than a month. He conducted detailed research on Mars in all aspects and obtained a large amount of first-hand information about Mars, which will be helpful for future transformation. Mars plays a very important role in understanding the origin and development of the solar system.

"It's time to go, let's go."

Li Fu nodded and gave the order gently. At this time, his teacher Liu Yi was still working tirelessly to study the microorganisms on Mars. Liu Shiying was very busy recently. He was recruited by the Bureau of Space Affairs, and he was there every day. Participate in various meetings through virtual machines to discuss how to deal with aliens and alien civilizations in the future, as well as building space battleships.

The "Ocean" spacecraft shoots out a long, blazing, dazzling tail flame. It continues to rotate around Mars at an increasingly faster speed. By fully utilizing the gravity of Mars, the spacecraft can save a lot of energy.

After dozens of laps, the "Ocean" spacecraft left its orbit and flew toward the outer reaches of the solar system to continue its scientific investigation. This time, its destination was Ceres, located in the asteroid belt.

The orbit of Mars is very close to the asteroid belt. The Oceania spacecraft flew from Mars to the asteroid belt in just over a month. Of course, the asteroid belt is very wide, and the spacecraft only entered the asteroid belt. Within the range, asteroids are slowly being discovered in the void. There is no doubt that scientists will not let go of the asteroids they encounter on the way.

The "Ocean" spacecraft is currently the largest spacecraft and the most advanced spacecraft. Catching asteroids is not difficult for the "Ocean" spacecraft at all.

As soon as the captured asteroid was transported back to the huge "Ocean" spacecraft, science, which had been impatient for a long time, immediately conducted various dissections and tests on the asteroid.

The radioactive material in soil and rocks can tell scientists its age; the composition of soil and rocks can infer the cause and time of its formation; the structure of elemental materials and the materials formed can infer its life experience...

"This is an asteroid that is only 3.2 billion years old. It should have been part of a massive planet. Some kind of large impact smashed it out. It seems that astronomers have inferred that in the early days of the solar system, this There really should be a massive planet in the asteroid belt, but it was later smashed for unknown reasons!”

Based on the captured asteroids, scientists inferred that there should have been massive planets in the asteroid belt before, but they were later smashed into pieces for unknown reasons and became the current asteroid rings.

The power of science is so great that we can infer what happened billions of years ago just based on some things. The asteroids in the asteroid belt play a very important role in studying the formation and development of the solar system. This is also the reason for this scientific expedition. Reasons why the asteroid belt should be investigated.

One is to evaluate the resources of the asteroid belt, and the other is to study the formation and development history of the solar system through the study of meteorites and asteroids in the asteroid belt.

The asteroid that had been torn into pieces was sent into the furnace by scientists. This asteroid containing a large amount of metal is a precious metal resource. Satellites, detectors, etc. are scattered everywhere along the way, and the resources consumed are not A small amount, just enough metal resources to supply, and a large amount of metal left to be stored.

"Continue to capture asteroids. It is best to discover some special asteroids. After returning to Earth, everyone will have gifts!" the scientists shouted.

Flying all the way, catching different types of asteroids and meteorites, conducting research on these asteroids and meteorites, constantly evaluating the resource distribution of the asteroid belt, and studying the history of the solar system. Compared with these asteroids in the asteroid belt Earth and Mars make it easier for scientists to study the history and evolution of the solar system.

PS: There are too many activities to visit relatives and friends these days. After these few days of busy work, I will start to pay off my debts.
