Chapter 948 Mars
After hearing Lu Zhiyao's question, Xu You fell into deep thought for a moment.
"Is there a logical connection between these two things? Well, I can't be sure about this for now."
After all, this problem is not a scientific research problem, but more of a reasoning problem, which cannot be solved by pure calculation.
Seeing that Xu You did not give any possible guesses, Lu Zhiyao came up with some possible directions.
"Xu You, have you ever heard of the closed loop of time and space?"
Hearing Lu Zhiyao's words, Xu You was also stunned.
"Yaoyao, the closed loop of time and space you mentioned refers to..."
"Yes, it should be the one you thought of. In many science fiction works that contain time-travel elements, we believe that different parallel time and space may have an influence on each other. For example, a person travels from the past to the future and has an impact on the future. And because of the changes brought about by this time travel, this 'past' time and space will also be affected accordingly..."
Lu Zhiyao's description was relatively abstract, but Xu You immediately understood the meaning of Lu Zhiyao's words.
"Yaoyao, the closed loop of time and space you mentioned does have a certain possibility. Before we are sure whether there will be any impact between different parallel time and space, we must retain this possibility."
And then, Xu You thought of something deeper.
"Yaoyao, if the two different parallel time and space experienced by this X-1 super quantum are indeed connected to each other, then we must continue to do something to continue the existence of this connection."
Lu Zhiyao also thought of the same point, nodded to Xu You and said:
"Yes, that is to say, we must make the same changes to the next parallel time and space. Otherwise, our time and space may be seriously affected."
Both Xu You and Lu Zhiyao felt that this sudden appearance of X-1 super quantum did not appear casually.
To be more precise, all of this even came from Xu You himself.
"Yaoyao, do you think that this X-1 super quantum actually comes from my future self?"
"I think that's true. So during your lifetime, you must be able to create a similar super quantum and let it enter a parallel time and space in the past. Otherwise, we will not be able to form the entire space-time logical closed loop, and in this case, our space-time closed loop may collapse completely."
Everything Lu Zhiyao said sounded incredible, even like some scenes in science fiction movies, but Xu You still felt that the possibility was not very small.
After thinking for a while, Xu You continued:
"Although sending X-1 super quantum directly to the parallel time and space in the past can solve this problem, I don't think this is the real solution to the problem. After all, X-1 super quantum should not appear out of thin air. This matter must have a source."
"So, the only way we can solve this problem is to create a super quantum that is the same as the X-1 super quantum and have it go back to a parallel time and space in the past through a wormhole, right?"
"That's probably the case, but it's not accurate," Xu You replied.
"How do you say it?"
"Yaoyao, you have to know that the X-1 super quantum did not appear alone, but appeared in the form of a pair of super quantum pairs. Therefore, we must create two entangled super quantums and let them go to the parallel time and space of the past together."
After hearing what Xu You said, Lu Zhiyao also felt that this might be the final correct answer.
…
Research on X-level super quantum is naturally not an easy task.
So far, the highest level of super-quantum produced by the Blue Star civilization and Proxima Centauri civilization is only level seven.
As for what exactly X-level super quantum is, Xu You could not give a standard answer.
During this period, in addition to the research on super quantum, Blue Star also began further development projects on Mars and started the construction of an entire interstellar civilization.
This time, Xu You and others also participated in the Mars development project and came to Mars in person.
Of course, this time Xu You did not just use the experimental cabin robot to go to Mars as he did before, but actually came to Mars in person on an aerospace fighter.
In addition to Xu You, Lu Zhiyao, Lin Shi, Luo Wenkun, Lou Song and others also came to Mars to participate in related projects of the Mars construction project.
"Compared to the construction on the moon, the construction work on Mars is much more massive. Fortunately, the surface area of Mars is large enough, and it will not be used as an escape planet. We can even build Mars into a better habitable planet than the Blue Planet, because we can plan the construction of Mars perfectly from the beginning."
Although the diameter of Mars is only half that of the Blue Planet, compared to the Moon, the diameter of Mars is almost twice that of the Moon.
The moon alone is enough to accommodate all the people on the blue planet, not to mention how sufficient the carrying capacity of Mars will be.
"Yes, because the various locations of the Blue Star civilization are not planned uniformly, there are many problems in the construction of the Blue Star. These problems will be completely avoided in the construction of the Martian civilization."
During the construction of Mars, Xu Youhui, as the chief designer, will lead the construction planning work of Mars. This will make the utilization rate of Mars very high. Unlike the Blue Planet, there will not be many locations that are unsuitable for human habitation, causing a large amount of area to be wasted.
After the final plan was determined, the transformation project on Mars began quickly.
Among these, the first task was to create the Martian atmosphere.
Although Mars is a planet with a relatively good environment, most creatures cannot survive directly on Mars. Therefore, the first step is to make Mars have a living environment similar to that of the Blue Planet.
According to the original plan, the transformation of the atmosphere of Mars needs to be carried out through nuclear reactors and chemical plants, and it will take hundreds of years to create an environment sufficient for the production of life on the blue planet.
Fortunately, the technology on Blue Planet is now advanced enough that it does not need to use a similar method, and it will not take so much time to create a similar atmosphere.
Once the Martian atmosphere is successfully created, the next step will be to improve the environment on the Martian surface.
Compared to the Blue Planet, the environment on the surface of Mars is much harsher, but it is still much easier to transform it than to transform the atmosphere.
As long as some chemical reactions can be used to improve the soil, rocks, etc. on the surface of Mars into a composition similar to that of the soil on the surface of the Blue Planet, it will be very suitable for the survival of life.
Xu You has completed similar experiments at the Blue Star experimental base, and has rigorously verified the feasibility of the experiment through his own brain simulation technology.
Once plants appear on Mars, Mars will produce oxygen on its own and no longer need external equipment to provide oxygen, which will allow Mars to further achieve ecological balance.
After a phase of engineering construction, the atmosphere of Mars has been transformed, and the surface of Mars has gradually been transformed into a state suitable for the survival of life.
The first experimental city on Mars has also begun construction little by little.
"Teacher, compared to the underground shelter on the moon, I still prefer the city on Mars. This is the real city feeling, and you can see the real world outside from the window. Although life in the lunar shelter is also very comfortable, many things are virtual, just like being locked up in a five-star prison, which always makes people feel unhappy."
Experiencing the Martian city, Lin Shi expressed her inner thoughts to Xu You.
"Of course, when we transformed the moon, we transformed it as a huge space station. At that time, the moon was just a refuge for us to escape from the solar system in case of emergency. Naturally, the living experience was not the core element. This time, the construction of Mars is different. We don't have any survival crisis. We just want to transform Mars into another home for mankind."
"Yes, teacher, this feeling is really great. There are already a lot of people who have made appointments to immigrate to Mars, but it is not easy to get the qualifications to immigrate to Mars."
Since the number of places for the first batch of Mars immigrants is very limited, obtaining the qualification to immigrate to Mars is not even a matter of money, but requires meeting all the conditions.
Of course, people like Xu You, Lu Zhiyao, Lin Shi, Lou Song, and Luo Wenkun will naturally qualify as the first batch of Martian immigrants and obtain residency rights and housing in the first city on Mars.
"Xu You, what other plans do you have next?"
At this time, Luo Wenkun suddenly asked.
In this Mars construction project, Fulun Technology once again served as the main organizer of the project and was responsible for many major tasks of Mars construction.
But this is not Luo Wenkun's ultimate goal. Luo Wenkun also really wants to know whether Xu You has the same plan as him.
"Any other plans... maybe to build a true star-level civilization."
After thinking for a while, Xu You gave the answer in his mind.
In front of other people, Xu You did not mention things about X-level super quantum, space-time closed loop, etc. After all, other people could not help Xu You solve these things, and he had to rely on Xu You's own strength.
Of course, building a true interstellar civilization is also one of Xu You’s main goals.
Hearing Xu You's words, Luo Wenkun couldn't help but laugh:
"Great, I have the same idea. Just building other planets in the solar system is not my ultimate goal. The scope of our Blue Star civilization must at least go beyond the solar system."
Although there are eight planets and several large satellites in the solar system, the number of these planets is relatively limited after all, and there are no particularly large planets that are very suitable for transformation.
Neither Xu You nor Luo Wenkun are short-sighted people, so they will naturally focus on the more distant future.
"Wenkun, now we all have infinite lifespans theoretically thanks to genetic modification technology. We can completely rely on this long lifespan to truly leave the solar system and take our first steps into the wider universe."
When Xu You talked about this , there were some other thoughts in his mind.
Because Xu You knew that in the process of his research on X-level super quantum and space-time closed loop projects, some unexpected problems might arise, which might prevent Xu You from surviving in this space-time for a long time.
If Xu You is gone, other people will need to step up and continue to build and carry forward the Blue Star civilization.
At this time, Severi said:
"I think we can also focus some of our energy on studying Proxima civilization. Although Proxima civilization has been completely blocked by us, it is still a very powerful civilization. We can find a lot of experience to learn from Proxima civilization."
"Yes, the Proxima civilization is one of our key research objects. One of the reasons why we did not choose to completely destroy the Proxima civilization before was that we hoped to study the Proxima civilization thoroughly so as to provide more help to our Blue Star civilization. Severi, this part of the work will be mainly left to you."
After all, Severi was once a Proxima Centauri, and her understanding of Proxima civilization is unmatched by anyone else, so Severi is very qualified for this job.
"Teacher Xu, in fact, I already have a very detailed plan for this. I have some civilized research methods here. I wonder what you think of them."
"Severi, just say it."
"That's right, Mr. Xu. We all know that there are many differences between Proxima and Blue Star civilizations in their development process. From a key point of view, Proxima civilization is more like a 'mechanical civilization', while Blue Star civilization is an 'emotional civilization'."
Based on her own understanding, Severi gave a summary of the two civilizations. Although the way of summarization was somewhat special, Xu You still highly recognized this way of summarization.
"Yes, Severi, I think there is nothing wrong with saying this. Compared to the Blue Star people, the Proxima Centauri are more like robots, with almost no emotional fluctuations."
