Popular science says oxygen is poisonous, and the whole internet scolds me for being sick
Chapter 902: Fragments of Theia
After Ye Zhen played this short recording.
“What do you think is wrong with this short recording?
Some people may think it sounds like nothing.
Some people find it extremely terrifying, and feel that it really is the sound from hell.
Many people think this is a fake audio clip.
Might be fake.
But if it were just this strange audio clip, it would be impossible for people to give up digging further.
Unless, they discovered something even more incredible in this drilling.
That's why they stopped drilling.
One might have thought that if one simply drilled a hole to the Moho interface.
It should be easier to dig in lower places.
For example, digging directly down in certain basins.
And you start digging on Mount Everest.
These are obviously two different concepts.”
What Ye Zhen said really hit the nail on the head for some people.
Some audience members nodded.
"Yes, if you want to dig, go directly to the deepest place on Blue Star."
"Wouldn't it be more effective to do this?"
"Hasn't this been explained before? Guixu is the deepest place we have discovered on the Blue Planet."
That's right, the Mariana Trench is the deepest place we have ever discovered.
It is a full 10,000 meters deep.
If we start digging directly in the Mariana Trench, we can save one-third of the project!
In fact, what everyone can think of, the United States and the former Soviet Union also thought of it back then.
The United States once thought of this clever approach.
Build drilling rigs directly offshore.
Now everyone should know that our offshore drilling technology is very mature.
Offshore drilling has brought us a lot of oil resources.
The United States thought so at the beginning.
Directly find the Mariana Trench and drill down from 10,000 meters.
Wouldn’t this save time and effort?
Ideal is plump, reality is skinny.
In the last century, the US dollar was a hard currency.
I think everyone has learned about the Bretton Woods system in history books.
Why was it called the US dollar at that time? Because the US dollar was directly linked to gold.
But the drilling at that time wanted to dig directly into the deep sea.
The excavation took two years and cost $70 million.
Only more than 200 meters were dug.
If calculated in this way.
If you want to dig to the Moho interface, ten times the annual GDP of the United States will not be enough.
So they simply gave up on this idea.
Because it looks beautiful when dug directly from the deep sea.
But in fact, the deep sea is not just a problem of corrosion and high pressure.
That's enough to put them off.
Finally, we returned to the ground and started digging step by step.
"So after the Soviet Union dug for so long, did they find anything?" Ye Zhen smiled.
After all, this is the longest and most in-depth study of the underground by humans.
“They actually dug up some stuff.
They found some of the rock components that were drilled out.
It is actually the same as the lunar samples collected by the US lunar rover on the moon that year.
At that time, this discovery caused quite a stir in the entire scientific community.
Because of the US fake moon landing at that time.
Countless people have already said this.
Now, rocks similar to the rock samples on the moon have been dug out from underground.
This makes people doubt whether the United States has really successfully landed on the moon. However, there is another theory.
They say the United States is not a human being and used some fake lunar soil samples to deceive scientists around the world.
Those so-called lunar soil samples were actually just dug out from underground.
This matter has left geologists puzzled.
Why are the rocks deep inside the blue planet the same as the samples collected from the moon? "
If you have watched Ye Zhen’s show.
You will definitely know why this happens.
The audience immediately recalled it.
"Because part of Theia was once fused into the Blue Planet!"
"This is actually indirect evidence that the original moon and blue planet collided and merged."
“That’s why this situation happened!”
Whether the audience is from the East or the West, they all know the reason without Ye Zhen explaining it.
"Hahaha, I'm better than the scientists of the last century."
"This is the development of the times. If it weren't for Teacher Ye, how would I have known this?"
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "I believe everyone has guessed it.
That’s right, the rock samples were collected by the former Soviet Union.
It encountered fragments of Theia, the predecessor of the moon.
That's why they discovered that the sample was the same as the one collected from the moon.
It's just that no one was aware of this at the time.
However, this evidence can just serve as evidence for the subsequent collision and fusion hypothesis.
The information that can be obtained by digging downward is no less than what everyone thinks can be obtained by flying into space.
Except this.
They also discovered gold ore with a gold content of up to 80 grams per ton.
If you don’t understand what this concept is.
For example.
Generally speaking, a gold mine can be called a rich gold mine if the gold content reaches eight to ten grams per ton.
It is worth mining.
The gold mine with the highest gold content discovered so far is the Red Lake Gold Mine in Canada.
Reached twenty grams per ton.
But this is nothing compared to the gold ore discovered by the Soviet Union.
This means there is a lot of gold hidden underground!
And the degree of enrichment is far beyond everyone's imagination.
The gold mines we can see now may be just a part of what has been squeezed out.
As we all know, gold has been a precious metal since ancient times.
It is hard currency that has always been popular among us humans.
In fact, looking at the universe, gold is also a rare element.
Because heavy elements like gold can only be formed in extreme cosmic events such as supernova explosions or neutron star mergers.
So gold is the last afterglow of the life of a star.
However, scenes such as supernova explosions are not common in the universe.
Therefore, gold is a rare element in the entire universe.
But what's strange is that we have gold on our blue planet.
It seems to be a little beyond everyone's imagination.
Everyone is accustomed to the existence of gold.
But looking at the universe, gold is a rare element.”
Speaking of this, some people remembered what happened when Ye Zhen was explaining the Sumerian civilization.
Professor Zhou recalled, "Didn't they say that the gods of the Sumerian civilization came to the Blue Planet?"
"Actually, you just want to dig for gold on our Blue Planet?"
"To repair the heavens they once had?"
Si Xiaoping also remembered such an incident.
"Mr. Ye once said that the love for gold seems to be innate and engraved in human blood."
"It seems that no one would dislike gold." (End of this chapter)
