1227 、 Development of the Moon
The Pentagram began to sail toward the core of the huge space fortress. As it got closer and closer to the far side of the moon, it could see that there were dozens of networks of countless lights on the moon, which were dozens of brightly lit lunar bases.
On the back of the space fortress, near the surface of the moon, there were more than a dozen channels that looked very small, but in fact, each of them had a diameter of more than 800 meters. They were directly connected to several of the largest bases.
"These channels are used to transport raw materials mined from the moon. Because the moon has not been artificially developed at all, even the sand on the moon is very rich in ilmenite. The entire moon's ilmenite reserves are close to 2,000 trillion tons. In addition, the moon is very rich in helium-3 and helium-4 reserves. Chen Gang's plan is to sell helium-3 nuclear fusion reactor technology to countries on Earth to gradually solve the earth's energy crisis. After all, all our energy has been replaced with pyroxene nuclear fusion reactors. Even with our current level of technology, the output power of our pyroxene fusion reactor is more than 100 times higher than that of a normal helium-3 fusion reactor. Similarly, the rich reserves of helium on the moon also allow us to control a large part of the raw material supply, "Purple continued to explain.
"Because the nuclear fusion reactor technology is still in our hands, and the nuclear fusion technology of the United States and other countries is still very preliminary, 5% of the energy supply of the entire earth is provided by our Guardian Group. This is also a critical point that Chen Gang believes. Any higher and the five permanent members will not be able to sit still. " Tang Yu also added that Fox Fairy would be the military adviser of this team in the future, and Jane Connor, as a leader who had also led the human Rebel forces, would naturally be an important core of the team. Tang Yu brought them here this time to tell them about the situation on his side.
Fox Fairy's eyes had been staring at the incomparably huge Guardian space fortress. When she heard Tang Yu's words, she nodded and said, "After returning to Earth, arrange a relatively high position in the Guardian Group for me, CEO, CFO, and so on. I will work with Chen Gang and Lee Sung-ho to strive for a relatively relaxed external environment for the group in the three years before the completion of the first phase of the main project of the space fortress. "
"You actually have this kind of diplomatic ability?" Tang Yu couldn't help but look up to her.
Immortal Fox waved his hand and said, "Compared to this, isn't it the weirdest thing that a technological geek like you can be the leader?"
While the few of them were bragging, the image on the screen of the spacecraft changed again. It became an aerial map of the lunar bases. They could see that these lunar bases were huge, and countless robots were working tirelessly in them. Inside the base, there were all kinds of factories, robot production, maintenance, charging, and a control center. Since the G-2 engineering robots, the Hyperion Loader, were mostly used here, Tang Yu did not have the ability to adjust the production mechanism of these robots because he could not analyze the technology of the photon polymerization constrained 3D printing factory. Therefore, these robots needed to be managed by the control center.
There were also countless huge mines on the dark side of the moon. Some were beside the mountains, and some were directly on the plains. Tang Yu could even see the largest pit, which could fit the entire city of Los Angeles!
The world of "Land of No Man's Land" was a world that had just entered the era of interstellar colonization, and the Hyperion Corporation was the leader among them. Therefore, in their database, there was a very complete set of resource planet development plans, and all the supporting engineering machines had detailed design drawings. Purple was originally the main control AI of the Hyperion space station. After being taken away by Tang Yu and brought to this world, she was awakened through the role of machinery, so it was natural that she could carry out these tasks with ease.
In the mines, countless large engineering machines were working, digging out tons of ore, crushing it, and sending it to the processing workshop. There was also a huge construction machine that was over 300 meters long. In front of this machine were several huge wheels that were over 100 meters in diameter. With the excavation of these huge wheels, it would only take about an hour to excavate an entire mine!
There was also a construction machine following behind. In front of this machine, there was a beam that kept sweeping past, and all the ore that was swept by the beam disappeared! These disappeared ores would instantly appear in the metal smelting factory behind and be directly smelted. Then, during the smelting process, they would be sorted, and the output would be a variety of different metal solutions, which would then be cooled and molded. After that, they would be directly transported to the project site through the channels connecting the space fortress and the moon.
And who knew how many such two-machine mining combinations there were on the dark side of the moon! No wonder Purple said before that carrying out this project, with such intensity of mining, could even change the inclination of the moon by 0.3 degrees! This was a real planetary-level project!
This was the mining method of the interstellar era! Many people only saw how mighty the interstellar battleships that were hundreds or thousands of meters long were, but they always neglected how the construction materials of these interstellar battleships came from. This was the answer! If it was the main body of the Hyperion Corporation, it could even hollow out the entire moon within 20 years!
There were also many engineering machines that could not even be named. These machines could all be seen as products of the Hyperion Corporation in the world of "Land of No Man's Land". These huge engineering machines could be built in a few hours or even a few minutes through 3D printing.
Otherwise, Purple would not have directly told Tang Yu that she could complete the main construction of the guardian space fortress within five years. If this project was handed over to Tang Yu, the terrifying material requirements alone would be enough for Tang Yu to find a piece of tofu and kill himself.
Both Jane Connor and Fox Immortal Fox were completely stunned at the sight of this terrifying industrial capability. And when the data behind these scenes was displayed in front of them, they were even more shocked to the point of speechlessness! This was because if the steel production of Tang Yu's moon base was compared to that of the entire Earth, they would get a very terrifying conclusion.
"After humans entered the interstellar era, steel production has never been a standard to measure strength." Purple saw the two women's expressions and explained to them.
"The moon is still okay, but what about Venus? Venus' atmosphere is full of sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide, the surface temperature is more than 490 degrees, and the environment is full of corrosive gases … But you said before that you would move this space fortress to Venus for further construction? How did you do it? "Fox Deity was still very surprised.
Seeing her look, Tang Yu smiled. In fact, when he first saw these things, the degree of shock was no less than Fox Deity's. It could even be said that his reaction was like that of a child. Because only then did he know what the things he brought back from the world of "Land of No Man's Land" meant!!
"Do you know why the handsome Jack values the pyrolyte ore so much? In fact, for the pyrolyte ore, for the hidden treasures, he did not hesitate to go to war with Atlas and Dare Corporation, which were stronger than him? "Tang Yu asked.
"What does this have to do with Venus?" Fox Deity asked with a frown.
