Chapter 867: Experiments in the Primordial Soup
After making all the preparations, Xu You boarded the aerospace fighter alone.
In order to avoid any possible accidents and enable himself to better complete his research work, Xu You insisted on not letting anyone else go with him and only brought a robot to accompany him .
"Academician Xu, you must pay attention to your safety and keep in touch with us at all times!"
"Don't worry, I will stay in low-Earth orbit and there won't be any safety issues." Xu You said with a smile.
Lu Zhiyao, Lin Shi and others also came to the airport to see Xu You off on this mission.
Lu Zhiyao was also a little worried about Xu You, but she knew that once Xu You made a decision, no one could change it unless she could come up with some better ideas to convince Xu You.
But when Lu Zhiyao learned all of Xu You's thoughts, she knew that she could not convince Xu You.
This research occupies an extremely important position in Xu You's entire research career.
If there is any breakthrough in the project, it can be said that it will directly bring the biological research community on the blue planet a major step forward.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Xu You controlled the button, closed the hatch of the aerospace fighter, and started the take-off procedure of the aerospace fighter.
This was not the first time Xu You had flown an aerospace fighter, but this was the first time Xu You had flown an aerospace fighter alone.
Even though Xu You felt confident about the entire project, he still felt somewhat lonely.
But there is no other way. Faced with this special alien creature, Xu You must make this choice.
In fact, there is a very crucial detail that Xu You did not reveal .
When Xu You informed Lu Zhiyao of this decision, Lu Zhiyao also asked Xu You why he wanted to make such a risky choice and even stubbornly refused to choose anyone to accompany him.
After Xu You obtained the complete DNA sequence of this Martian creature, X-1 Super Quantum reminded Xu You that this was a very scary creature, and their true abilities were far more powerful than Xu You and others knew.
Including Hu Shucheng and his team, the team members who are exploring Mars have now fallen into a potentially dangerous situation.
Xu You must solve the mystery as soon as possible to ensure everyone's safety.
After Xu You started the operating program of the aerospace fighter, the aerospace fighter quickly took off successfully and soared into the blue sky.
Next, the aerospace fighter will drive automatically to the low-Earth orbit of the blue planet. Xu You does not need to perform any operations. He only needs to pay attention to the operating status of the aerospace fighter at all times and make some adjustments when necessary.
At this time, Xu You can also focus on preparing for the experiment.
This aerospace fighter has a laboratory specially prepared for Xu You, which can meet the needs of Xu You's experiment.
In addition to various necessary experimental equipment, the laboratory also prepares various nutrients required for the growth of organisms.
If Xu You could really artificially create this kind of creature in this way, it would definitely require a lot of biological nutrients and live in low-Earth orbit for a period of time.
Not long after, the aerospace fighter entered low-Earth orbit and stopped its energy supply, allowing the aerospace fighter to rotate around the blue planet in orbit.
The reason why Xu You chose to conduct experiments in low-Earth orbit is that, on the one hand, it is relatively close to the Blue Planet, and if there are any special circumstances, it would be more convenient to travel back and forth.
On the other hand, also in low-Earth orbit, aerospace fighters can rely on the gravity of the blue planet to move, and their own energy consumption is very small.
In this way, even if the experiment takes a very long time, Xu You does not need to worry about the operation of the aerospace fighter.
After the aerospace fighter was operating stably in low-Earth orbit, Xu You officially began the experiment.
As far as Xu You knows, this is the first time in the history of Blue Star civilization that someone has attempted to construct a cell from scratch.
Normally, simply producing a pair of DNA double helix structures does not mean producing a cell.
However, based on Lou Song's conjecture and Xu You's simulation, this idea is very likely to appear in this creature.
Xu You carefully controlled the instrument and used a microscope to create the DNA structure of Martian cell organisms.
This job requires a very high level of operating skills from the operator and does not allow any mistakes, but Xu You can still complete this job very quickly.
Xu You's hands were as precise as a machine, without any visible tremor, and were even steadier than the best attending physicians.
Unknowingly, Xu You had completed the manufacture of the entire Martian biological double-stranded DNA structure.
At this time, nothing else has happened.
After that, Xu You put various nutrient solutions rich in organic matter into it.
These organic nutrient solutions were not selected by Xu You at random, but were based on data from the simulated world in Xu You's brain.
To a certain extent, this is the "primordial soup" when life was born on the planet, and it is even more nutritious than the primordial soup.
After Xu You added these organic nutrient solutions, the DNA double helix structure began to change.
They slowly absorb this energy and spontaneously build their own cell structure.
"This...is this another special feature of this creature?"
Xu You was somewhat caught off guard by this sudden phenomenon and continued to concentrate on observing the situation under the microscope.
Xu You didn’t know whether a similar situation occurred at the beginning of life on the Blue Planet, but it was indeed a possible phenomenon.
Whether it is this special DNA double helix structure or this special organic nutrient solution, they are substances that do not exist on the blue planet today and are difficult to form naturally in nature.
However, in the long course of history, all low-probability events are possible.
Perhaps this is the reason why life was born.
While Xu You was thinking about these questions, these DNA structures continued to generate cells.
Although the entire process is still proceeding very slowly, according to the evaluation of artificial intelligence, the overall progress is indeed moving forward.
Xu You was so immersed in this magical process that he didn't even pay attention to the inquiries from the Shenzhou Space Administration for a while.
"Academician Xu, is everything going smoothly over there?"
