Chapter 814: Space Transfer Station
"I think that in fact, there is also so-called humanity in their civilization. However, this humanity is very purely rational, without any emotional factors. Proxima people like Severi are actually very special Proxima people."
Lu Zhiyao explained this matter from his own philosophical perspective.
Speaking of which, the word human nature, understood in a narrow sense, is based on the people of Blue Planet.
But since humans do not exist only on the Blue Planet in this universe, humans on other planets also have their own definition of human nature.
"Yes, from the perspective of these Proxima people, they would think that our Blue Planet's system is very strange. For example, why do humans on Blue Planet have so many emotions and feelings, and often rely on emotions to control their behavior. The Blue Planet attaches great importance to "human feelings", which makes it absolutely impossible for Blue Planet civilization to use artificial intelligence to preside over the implementation of laws and rules like Proxima civilization..."
Xu You and Lu Zhiyao discussed the similarities and differences between Proxima Centauri civilization and Blue Star civilization, and exchanged their opinions with each other.
At this time, Xu You asked Lu Zhiyao:
"Then Yaoyao, do you think the system of Proxima civilization is better than that of Blue Star civilization?"
Hearing Xu You's question, Lu Zhiyao did not answer directly, but thought about it first.
"To some extent, the system of Proxima Centauri civilization is indeed very efficient and has greatly prevented the emergence of various forms of human corruption. But I think that a civilization without emotions at all cannot be called an outstanding intelligent civilization."
Lu Zhiyao and Xu You have similar views. Xu You also thinks that the "humanity" possessed by the humans on Blue Star is the most important point in human civilization on Blue Star.
"So far, none of our civilizations has fully understood how life was born. Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly a very low-level idea to rashly rely on destroying other civilizations to achieve dominance in the universe. In the Proxima civilization, there is only purely rational philosophy, and there is no emotional philosophy." Lu Zhiyao continued.
For ethical issues like the "trolley problem", every Proxima Centauri would not hesitate at all and would directly choose the option that would cause fewer casualties. They would not even be able to understand why there would be any hesitation in making such a choice, even if the trolley ran over their loved ones.
Lu Zhiyao felt that such a cold civilization was extremely terrifying.
"Yes, Yaoyao, even if you study natural philosophy, you will never be so rational. According to the information sent by Severi, for the overall interests of Proxima civilization, every Proxima person is willing to sacrifice his or her life, even the high-level members of the core organization of Proxima civilization. As long as their sacrifice can be exchanged for greater gains, they will not hesitate at all."
This spirit of sacrifice is no less than that of the ants on the blue planet.
Even the reason why Severi was willing to help Xu You do all this was for the survival of the entire Proxima civilization.
After Xu You and Lu Zhiyao chatted for a while, it was already late.
"Whether we agree with this civilization system or not, we have to admit that they are indeed a powerful civilization, a civilization that is difficult to defeat. It is precisely because of their special system that their civilization has developed so quickly and has survived in the current universe ."
Xu You knew that the environment around Proxima b was extremely harsh, far less suitable than that of the Blue Planet, but the people of the Proxima civilization could still survive tenaciously and develop a powerful civilization. This was enough to prove that the Proxima civilization system was a viable system.
"Well, no matter what, things are much more optimistic than before. With the help of Severi, at least the Proxima civilization has sent their pioneer space fleet back. In the next period of time, you can continue your research."
"Yes, starting tomorrow, I will also continue my research work. There are still many things to do." Xu You said.
…
After experiencing this incident, Xu You quickly adjusted his state and continued his research work.
One of the important tasks is the construction of a space elevator.
Although before this, Xu You, Xu Zhou and others had already developed new carbon quantum tube materials and completed all the design work for the space elevator .
However, if we want to truly complete the efficient space elevator transportation mission, a space transfer station is also indispensable.
The more space transfer stations we have, the higher the transportation efficiency of the space elevator can be, allowing more people and materials to reach the moon from the blue planet smoothly.
Because of the rotation of the blue planet, a space elevator must have a transfer station when it approaches the end of the moon. Only at the right time can people land on the moon smoothly.
To this end, Xu You, Lin Shi and others discussed the relevant issues together.
"Teacher, I think we can build a large space station in the high orbit of the Blue Planet that can accommodate tens of thousands of people, so as to accommodate people going to the moon. Due to the rotation of the Blue Planet, there is actually only a short period of time every day that is suitable for landing on the moon. Only by building such a large space transfer station can we improve our efficiency in going to the moon."
Xu You had already considered this question, and nodded:
"Yes, Lin Shi, I have considered this idea before. We will also build a small space elevator at the landing site on the moon to serve as an interface between the moon and the large space station. Related work is expected to begin in the near future."
Now, the construction of the space elevator project on the blue planet has begun.
Before the entire space elevator project is completed, the lunar space elevator project must also be completed to facilitate the testing of the entire project.
Of course, Xu You also knew that it was not an easy task to realize such a vision.
Including the orbit selection, docking procedures, operating status, etc. of large space stations, all must be precisely calculated to ensure that everything is foolproof.
However, there is now a serious problem facing Xu You.
Due to the use of the super-limit function of the X-1 super quantum, Xu You still does not have even a little bit of energy left.
In this state, Xu You has not conducted any research on any large-scale projects.
