Six hundred and two - space port

Because of the existence of black light technology, the whole world is changing with each passing day.

Some experts have indicated that the growth rate of human life expectancy in the past twenty years is more than a hundred times that of the industrial revolution. However, today, the official website of the Earth Federation suddenly announced a shocking news——

At 9:31 a.m. on July 23, 2040, the global population officially exceeded 10 billion, a full ten years faster than the estimated speed 30 years ago.

Thirty years ago, before the great company Black Light Technology was born, the Earth Federation roughly estimated a population growth schedule based on population growth data:

Once in 1830, that is, after the emergence of the Industrial Revolution, the world's productivity increased significantly, and the world's population reached 1 billion for the first time.

Subsequently, the speed of human beings began to skyrocket, and only a century later, in 1930, the world population officially exceeded the 2 billion mark.

Afterwards, the increase in population continued to rise. In 1960, the population was 3 billion, in 1975 it was 4 billion, in 1987 it was 5 billion, and in 1999 it reached 6 billion!

At the time of the statistics in this table, that is, in 2011, the population had just reached a staggering 7 billion.

While this table shows that the population is growing rapidly, it also warns of future population explosion and resource constraints. It is estimated that the world population will increase by more than 1 billion in the next 15 years and reach 8 billion by 2026.

Although this chronology also pointed out that DINK, non-marriageism, late marriage and late childbearing and other ideas are bound to rise one after another in the future, after all, the population will continue to grow when the base is getting larger and larger, until about 2050 Around the time, the world population will officially exceed the 10 billion mark.

However, although this form anticipated the evolution of human cultural forms, it did not anticipate the rise of black light technology.

However, the Earth Federation did not become pessimistic because of the data that reached the population explosion in advance. On the contrary, the Earth Federation said that human beings have never been so hopeful as they are now.

The establishment of Ares Science City on Mars, a permanent alien colony arranged by Blacklight Technology, marks a shocking step for civilization. Since then, human beings have been promoted from planetary natives to interplanetary species, and have completely entered the era of alien colonization.

Although the current Ares Science City can only accommodate hundreds of thousands of residents, the four continents have also sent spaceships to Mars one after another, and four larger permanent Mars colonies are under construction. In the next ten years, at least Tens of millions of people will formally immigrate to Mars.

This scene made many people faintly aware of the secret contest between the Four Continents and Black Light Technology,

But at least on the surface, the two sides still maintain goodwill and harmony.

Not only that, with the implementation of the human lifespan escape plan, the average human lifespan has also exceeded the 100-year-old mark, and the increased lifespan here is by no means old age, but youth and middle age.

These two periods have been greatly extended, which means that the problem of social aging has gradually eased. Under the impetus of the anti-aging reversal treatment project, countless elderly people have transformed into middle-aged people. According to this form, the population stipulated by the Earth Federation The middle-aged age group has also been raised from 40 to 60 years old to 40 to 80 years old.

Under this situation, many countries have begun to change their policies to extend the retirement date. Although there have been some voices of opposition, in this general situation, unless you do not use the "Healthy Aging Reversal Treatment Project" to increase your life expectancy, otherwise you can only Follow the rules that change in this big situation.

"Because of the prospects and development of alien colonization technology, no country or continent in the world has issued an order to limit the population."

At this time, Chen Chen was sitting in the office, silently watching the population announcement issued by the Earth Federation, while Little X said, "Obviously, all countries and worlds are very optimistic about human beings emigrating to extraterrestrials."

"Of course."

Chen Chen nodded and said with a light smile, "After all, our black light technology has paved the way for them in advance, and of course they don't want to limit their population. If they know, we have already prepared the leap engine technology we need in the future If so, wouldn't it be even more exciting to jump three feet high?"

"However, although the leap engine technology has obtained blueprints and materials, it is still being explored."

Little X followed Chen Chen's words, "It is estimated that in two or three months, the first leap engine will be manufactured, and we will still need to produce the supporting spaceships by then."

Chen Chen nodded when he heard the words, and said thoughtfully, "It's time to build a space port belonging to our black light technology. After all, the main footprint of human activities will be transferred to space in the future, and it's time for us to form our own star fleet. .”

"But what shall we do?"

Little X tilted his head and said curiously, "A space port that can manufacture spaceships in outer space may cost a lot. Although nuclear power engines can greatly reduce the cost of transporting materials into space, if you want to catch up with the completion of the jump engine It may not be easy to build a huge space station, at least thousands of rocket launches are required."

"fool."

However, Chen Chen flicked Little X's forehead lightly, and laughed, "Is it necessary for us to send the space port into space little by little? Isn't it enough to just launch the black ball Gantz into space?"

Little X clutched her forehead. At first, she shrank her head subconsciously, but following Chen Chen's words, her eyes suddenly lit up, "This is a good way! The black ball only needs electricity and Gantz satellite signals, and it can easily fly between two o'clock. As long as a black ball is transported into space, we can continuously transport materials up!"

So, they did what they said, and soon a nuclear-powered rocket was arranged in the space base. At the same time, the engineers here also received a secret engineering drawing. They secretly spent a few days in accordance with the requirements on the engineering drawing to manufacture A set of rough mechanical platforms came out.

This platform has hundreds of robotic arms, the longest of which adopts a foldable built-in robotic arm structure. The maximum working distance can reach hundreds of meters, and it can bear thousands of kilograms of weight. Even the smallest robotic arm is two or three meters long. It is long and can bear hundreds of kilograms of weight.

Strictly speaking, this mechanical platform is basically a fully automatic workshop with no function!

After being folded, this mechanical platform could actually fold itself into a giant cylinder with a diameter of 25 meters and a length of more than 50 meters. Then, this cylinder was loaded into this nuclear-powered rocket that had been prepared for a long time.

Then, there is no need to apply with the Earth Federation. Today's Black Light Technology does have its own qualifications to launch satellites. Black Light Technology just informed the Earth Federation of the geosynchronous orbit data and told itself that it wants to occupy this position, and then the rocket will Launched silently.

Half a day later, the mechanical platform in the rocket entered geosynchronous orbit by itself.

With the successful orbit, the fairing on the rocket was completely discarded, and the five brackets that were close to the inside of the rocket were also opened at a 45-degree angle at the tail of the rocket. From a distance, it looked like a throne held high. The platform is filled with colorful signal lights.

If someone sees it at this time, they will be shocked to find that this is not a satellite, this is a prototype of a huge space station!

This huge mechanical platform gradually stretches its body on the orbit, and as the mechanical arms slowly unfold, it looks more and more cold and hideous. It does not need solar panels at all, and the nuclear fusion reactor on the platform can support satellite data. Centennial energy supply.

At this moment, most of the parts on the rocket on the mechanical platform began to slowly detach, and fell towards the earth. Large and small black spheres also gradually bloomed with a cold blue light.

As we all know, it is very difficult to build a space station in outer space. Even if the technology is achieved, the transportation of materials is also a huge problem, and it needs to be launched from the earth by rocket.

Although the cost of launching rockets has been greatly reduced due to the emergence of nuclear fusion propellers, the time cost has not been reduced. It also requires multiple launches to transport materials, and it will take more than several years to build a rocket in the open and boundless outer space. Qualified space station to come.

However, the emergence of the black ball Gantz has perfectly solved this problem. Although the transmission of the black ball still needs to consume a lot of power, compared with the cost of launching, it is already indescribably beneficial.

At this time, as the black ball started to transmit, the parts that had been prepared a long time ago were transmitted to the mechanical platform, and the hundreds of mechanical arms immediately operated, as if they were building blocks, and began to build bit by bit. The prototype of the space station.

Chen Chen has ambitions. The first space station he wants to build is by no means a small space station that can only accommodate a dozen people in the Earth Federation, and cannot even reach the size of a villa. What he wants to build is a giant space dock .

In the future, this space station will not only be able to park hundreds of warships and resource transport ships, but will also be a space transport port. The resources mined from the solar system will not need to be directly transported back to the earth, but the resources will be piled up here, and then let Proprietary spaceship transport back.

In other words, this space station will be a large-scale space port unprecedented for human beings. Through this port, Black Light Technology will naturally gain more voice and more benefits...

A space station that suddenly appeared naturally quickly attracted the attention of the Earth Federation, especially noticing that this space station suspended in a synchronous orbit over Namibia was rapidly growing in size day by day, which shocked the top leaders of the Earth Federation.

They couldn't understand how Chen Chen did it, so they tried to get information from Black Light Technology, but only Chen Chen and Xiao X knew about this plan, and their hard work was wasted.

Just like that, but three months later, when the time entered autumn, the space station had already reached the size of a small mountain.

At this time, after three months of fully automatic construction, the space station has begun to take shape. From the outside, it looks like a vertical bow. At the same time, at the position of the bowstring, five docking frames are lying there.

Four of the docking frames are empty, only the docking frame in the first row, a 30-meter-long spaceship like a cigar is quietly parked, and each docking frame represents a seat. berth.

Today's space port is only beginning to take shape, so it can only park small spaceships, and there are only five berths. If the space port designed by Xiao X is fully completed, it will be able to park larger than Ares. A hundred times as large as a spaceship.

At this time, as the last part was sent to the space port, a black ball with a diameter of one meter and surrounded by three metal rings appeared in the space port's teleportation chamber.

At the same time, there were five black knights in space suits.

With the remote control of Little X, the group of black knights transported the strangely shaped metal ball into the spaceship parked in the port, and then it was a complicated installation and loading, until the metal ball was completely installed Inside the spaceship, a spaceship equipped with a jump engine was finally completed.

That's right, that weirdly shaped black ball is the first space jump engine that Chen Chen tried to make based on the jump engine technology obtained from the "Black Hole Surface" plane.

What followed couldn't be easier.

In the south of the Life Science City, apart from the aerospace base, a huge space observatory had already been built a few years ago.

Here, rows of radio telescopes with an area of ​​more than thousands of square meters have been erected, each with a size of more than tens of thousands of square meters. They form a super array, looking at the sky uniformly.

And with the change of time, these radio telescopes are slowly rotating like huge sunflowers.

These radio telescopes alone may not be as huge as the power and area of ​​FAST (Zhongzhou Sky Eye), but here hundreds of radio telescopes are gathered together, and the scale has surpassed FAST, reaching an unprecedented level.
