Why was it an ordinary battery that sounded the horn to march into the universe and marked the beginning of the era of interstellar navigation?
It was a High Energy 3 battery with an energy density close to that of gasoline.
Why was it not a nuclear battery with a higher energy density or a small fusion reactor?
The answer was obvious.
Nuclear batteries were large in size and weight. There was a risk of radiation. Except for large spacecraft, it was difficult to install them in smaller space devices.
The High Energy 3 battery had a high energy density, no radiation hazards, better safety and stability. In the aerospace field, its application range and commercial value were greater.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Chen Jin did not waste any time. He immediately announced Xing Hai Technologies' outer space development plan.
To all capital and investors, Xing Hai Technologies' ambitious ambitions in the field of space were demonstrated.
It was mainly divided into three parts:
One, "Space City Plan"
"In the next 50 to 100 years, Xing Hai Technologies expects to build more than 100 space cities, space smelters, and space factories in the space environment. More than 100 million people will be immigrated to become permanent residents of the space cities."
"We have conducted simulations with supercomputers. We believe that the cost of building a space city is lower than that of migrating to the moon and Mars. The cost is far lower than transforming the surface environment of the moon and Mars."
"The reason is that we can build a space city in outer space orbit 36,000 to 100,000 kilometers away from the earth. This will save a lot of travel and time for transporting materials from the earth or the moon."
"After the construction of the space city is completed, we can flexibly deploy it according to the functions of the city. We can even use the city's own power system or traction device to transfer the entire space city to the orbit of Mars. This will increase the development of Mars."
"We can also transfer it to the vicinity of the asteroid belt or the orbit of Jupiter to develop the resources there."
"We believe that unless there is a large amount of water resources on a certain planet, the cost-effectiveness of transforming the planet's environment is far less than building a space city. The two are like 'laying a carpet on the ground' and 'making a pair of shoes for feet to wear.' The latter is more flexible."
"Xing Hai Technologies will fully embark on the 'Space City' route. Space Free Cities will be born in our hands."
Two, "Asteroid Mining Plan"
The plan intends to produce more than 100 "mining motherships" that use nuclear fusion as the energy system. The tonnage of the mothership will exceed 2 million tons. It will carry a variety of mining, ore dressing, and smelting equipment, mainly to mine minerals from asteroids.
If necessary, the "mining mothership" will work closely with the "space smelting cities" with stronger comprehensive capabilities to increase the efficiency of resource mining.
Three, businesses in the fields of space tourism, space transportation, space medical care, space adventure, and so on, to provide users with safer and more thoughtful services.

Xing Hai Technologies' space development plans were announced.
The industry was shaken.
It sparked heated discussions around the world and even caused the stock prices of hundreds of aerospace companies to plummet.
There were also countless investors who sent investment requests to Xing Hai Technologies. They were generally optimistic about Xing Hai Technologies.
The reason was simple.
The technical strength of Xing Hai Technologies was the strongest. The feasibility of the proposal was higher and the most reasonable.
"You'll know if it's real once the experts make their move. Compared to Xing Hai Technologies' plan, the space plans that the other space companies boast about are full of flaws in an instant. One look and you can tell that it's a money-making scheme."
"At this stage, the 'space city' is indeed the best choice. A space city receives light 24 hours a day, and its solar power generation capacity is twice that of a rotating planet. Not only that, there's no need to accelerate to an escape velocity when departing from the 'space city' to other places, which saves a lot of fuel and energy. Not only that, but it's also very flexible. The 'space city' can move to any place it wants, and it can also get support faster if it's in trouble …"
"If we make a comprehensive comparison, the space city plan is indeed the best."
"I think it's not bad to build settlements on the surface of the planet. Transforming the environment is not a complete transformation. We just need to build a few ecosphere cities similar to the 'domed base.' Although the transportation distance of materials is a little longer and the initial cost is a little higher, after achieving self-sufficiency in the later stage, there's basically no cost. Moreover, we can continuously send resources to Earth … Isn't the 'planet settlement' route better?"
"Self-sufficiency? This means a whole set of industrial systems, or at least a set of primary industrial systems. Do you know the cost of that on a barren planet? Moreover, industrial production consumes a lot of water. Without water resources, any activity will have to pay a lot of costs. In the end, it's still far less cost-effective than a space city. "
"The planet is dead and moves around a fixed orbit. But we humans are alive. We may face all kinds of unexpected situations at any time. Space development activities are even more dangerous and challenging. Even if we miss one thing, we may lose our lives."
"Therefore, I trust space cities more. After all, the initial stage of this kind of city can be tested in a place not far from Earth for more than a decade. Its reliability will rapidly improve."
"If it's a planetary base, a hole in the protective shield may destroy a settlement. The waiting period for rescue is several years, just like in the movie 'Mars Rescue.' No one wants to be in such a predicament."
"Hey, over a thousand aerospace companies have adjusted their previous space development plans in the past two days. They have chosen Xing Hai Technologies' 'Space City' route. Some have even applied to join Xing Hai Technologies or begged to be acquired. Sigh, it's fine if the big boss doesn't make a move, but once he does, he's going to dominate the industry."
"This is good. The resources on Earth are limited. Don't waste too many resources in the wrong direction. All companies should follow behind Xing Hai Technologies and cross the river with Xing Hai Technologies. They can definitely avoid risks and make profits."
"Under the leadership of Xing Hai Technologies, the true and profitable era of interstellar navigation has officially begun."
For Chen Jin.
His final big move was unleashed just like that.
The development of Xing Hai Technologies was completely on the right track. It was no longer subject to any restrictions. Its future development would only get better and better. There was no need to worry too much.
Now, he was over 40 years old. On the surface, he looked like a young man in his 30s. However, he was tired of many things and had no interest in them.
In a word, it was "lonely to be invincible."
It was also very boring.
"As far as I can see, it's just a piece of bronze. There's no challenge at all."
Chen Jin shook his head. He felt that he should let go of those unimportant things and do something more challenging.
