Popular science says oxygen is poisonous, and the whole internet scolds me for being sick

For the Kola superdeep well.

Old Chen from the 749th Bureau has some knowledge of this.

After all, the Soviet Union and our country had a honeymoon period back then.

So some information from the Soviet Union was exchanged with our country back then.

Among them is information about the Kola Superdeep Borehole.

"Old Chen, have you thought of something?" Ning Xiu looked at Old Chen who was sitting next to her.

I saw that Old Chen had a frown on his face.

Old Chen shook his head and said, "It just reminded me of a document I read back then."

"What information?" Song Xuan asked curiously with eyes wide open.

Old Chen pondered for a moment and lowered his eyes.

"When the Soviet Union was in the Cold War, it wanted to surpass the United States."

"Defeat the United States' manned lunar landing achievement."

"They set up a secret laboratory and went to Kola to dig a well."

"It was a top-secret project back then. We didn't even know what they were doing there."

“Everyone who went to Kola to drill a well was assigned a house.”

"And they offered a very high salary."

"They are right here in Korra, doing it day and night."

"For this purpose, they set up a scientific research laboratory in order to overcome any difficulties encountered during the excavation."

"Any workers involved in the excavation at the time were asked to keep it confidential."

“They want to dig right through to the Moho.”

“It was only when the excavation reached a depth of 12000 meters.”

"When the Soviet Union collapsed, the well was sealed up."

“But in 1994, it started up again.”

"It wasn't until 2006 that it was sealed up."

Up to this point, there is nothing wrong with what Lao Chen said.

But then Lao Chen revealed some inside information that the outside world didn’t know.

“In fact, it was after the collapse of the Soviet Union.”

"They already knew that they had completely lost the Cold War."

“The Kola Superdeep Borehole no longer has the significance it once had.”

"But later on, the Russians continued to invest money in excavation."

"The drilling was finally stopped, not because of lack of money or because it was too difficult to continue."

There are a lot of rumors out there about why the Kola superdeep drilling was stopped.

There are many reasons for this.

Some say it was because of the collapse of the former Soviet Union.

Some say that there is no funding to continue supporting research.

Others say that human technology has reached its limit and digging is no longer possible.

In fact, all of the above factors exist, but they are definitely not the most important ones.

Old Chen said mysteriously, "The Russians dug up some incredible things back then."

“That’s why the Kola Superdeep Borehole was sealed.”

Something incredible?

What on earth is that?
Song Xuan gently stroked his chin, as if he was stroking a non-existent beard.

"Could it be an underground passage of a super ancient civilization?" This connects to Ye Zhen's previous program.

Song Xuan thought of this possibility.

Ning Xiu shook her head. "If it is a passage of super ancient civilization, it should not be sealed."

"Instead, development should have started in secret."

But Lao Chen nodded and shook his head, "When the Soviet Union was digging deep."

“Some ruins of super-ancient civilizations have indeed been discovered.”

"It is precisely because of this that the Russians wanted to turn the tables on this issue later."

"They want to acquire the technology of a super ancient civilization."

This explains why after the collapse of the former Soviet Union.

Russia will continue to invest money to dig deeper into it.

It turns out that the remains of a super-ancient civilization were discovered there.

As the victor of World War II.

The former Soviet Union and the United States seized many scientists from the Third Reich.

They are also well aware of what kind of black technology the German mustache had obtained in the past.

All of this originated from the super ancient civilization!
"So what stopped the Russians from continuing to dig?" Song Xuan didn't understand. Back to Ye Zhen's show.

Ye Zhen smiled and said, "When the Kola Superdeep Borehole was being excavated, it was top secret in the former Soviet Union."

“Not many people knew about this at the time.

It’s just that the United States was doing the same thing at the same time.

At that time, the United States had already excavated more than 9,000 meters.

Announced this good news directly to the world.

Because the United States also knew about the achievement of entering the ground at that time.

It was the only place where the former Soviet Union could have possibly defeated them.

So they are also proceeding closely.

At that time, the people drilling in Kola heard the news announced by the United States.

At that time, their hearts felt chilled.

Because at that time the Kola drilling had only dug more than 7,000 meters.

There is still a long way to go to reach the United States.

They decided to dig beyond 10,000 meters.

The news was announced.

In the end, they finally broke through 10,000 meters with great difficulty.

Only then did they announce this news to the world.

That year they were the first country to break the 10,000-meter mark.

It can be considered as completing part of the task indirectly.

But their goal is not just that.

Because they want to dig to the Moho interface.

But 10,000 meters is only one third of the distance.

Especially in the later stages, the drill has been iterated many times.

The drill bit used was the hardest tungsten alloy drill at that time.

But even so, in the later stage, the drill bit was often replaced in less than a week.

Change it one day later.

One day of digging and three days of repair.

Later on, I changed the drill bits several times a day.

It took twenty years to dig the last two hundred meters.

This is countless times more difficult than when they first started digging.

So the former Soviet Union felt that the time was almost right.

It was simply impossible to continue digging.

So it was announced that the excavation of the Kola superdeep well had been stopped.

But in reality, it’s not that simple.”

No one felt anything was wrong after hearing this.

After all, the deepest excavation so far is only more than 12,000 meters.

The last two drillings were also carried out for commercial reasons.

It only broke through more than 12,000 meters.

At most, it is only 200 meters beyond the Kola Superdeep Borehole.

You have to know that today's technology is completely different from that of the last century.

Every day is different.

However, there seems to be no breakthrough in excavation technology.

It's like marking time.

But is this really the case?

Some viewers thought of the secret passages deep inside the Potala Palace.

At first they thought it was nothing special that this ultra-ancient civilization hid underground.

But now after Ye Zhen said this.

It seems that digging holes is really a technical job.

"So, it's a super ancient civilization that was able to build cities in the underground world."

"How terrifying is their technology?"

"That's right, it's so difficult for us to dig a hole now."

"Not to mention digging a tunnel there that could cause direct pain."

They remember that there is a large hole under the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. (End of this chapter)
