Chapter 357 Building a Mars Model
When Xu Yuan finished speaking, the representative on the stage did not ask any more questions.

After all, Xu Yuan represents authority.

Since there is currently no practical and specific implementation plan for transforming the Martian environment, we can only wait and choose to trust the Global Space Exploration Alliance's research on Mars.

After all, we need to transform a planet's environment from a harsh one into a place suitable for human survival.

The amount of work involved is huge and the time span is long.

It's all unimaginable.

It is no exaggeration to say that once this project is approved, it will become the largest super engineering century project in human civilization in the next few decades or even hundreds of years. It may take the joint efforts of several generations of scientific researchers to achieve the goal.

Therefore, at the beginning, you must be absolutely sure.

Otherwise, if we invest massive amounts of resources and time only to find out that it is a dead end, it will be fatal to the development of human civilization.

So we must pay special attention and be serious about it.

You have to know that the concepts of transforming the Martian environment and building a Martian city are not new.

But it has appeared for a long time.

There are also many outstanding scientific researchers who have put forward their own solutions to this matter.

But unfortunately, among these plans, not only are they too difficult to achieve with existing human technological means, but the risks are beyond expectations and no one dares to take the risk.

The main reason is that although Mars is far away from the Earth, we are in the same solar system, and if something really goes wrong on Mars.

Perhaps it could have an impact on the Earth.

By then, it would be too serious for human civilization.

It’s unacceptable that my old home gets robbed before I find my second home.

No one can bear this kind of responsibility.

It is for this reason that human research on Mars is still only theoretical.

If it weren't for the birth of Zhengtu, which made Mars seem no longer so far away, no one would probably bring up this matter today.

Seeing that no one else wanted to ask further questions, Xu Yuan fell silent again.

But his words were not just simple talk.

He did have the idea of ​​transforming the Martian environment and had tried to deduce it in his mind.

After all, opening up a new home is something that human civilization must face when it develops to a certain stage.

If you don't try to solve this problem while you are still young, you will end up with it in your coffin.

that's it.

The meeting soon ended.

Xu Yuan was too lazy to exchange pleasantries with other people at the scene. He just said something to Mr. Wang and left the headquarters building early. He no longer needed to care about any social etiquette.

If you have that much time, you might as well stay in the laboratory doing experiments.

And the actual situation was indeed like this. After the conference began to end, many people moved their eyes back and forth, scanning like lasers, as if they were looking for someone.

And there was no intention of concealing it.

Obviously everyone wanted to take this opportunity to have even a brief chat with Xu Yuan.

And after knowing that Xu Yuan had secretly left, there was no sign of dissatisfaction or anger on his face.

They were all sighing and full of regret.

-

Just as Xu Yuan returned to the Alliance Laboratory, the content of today's meeting was also reported.

The mainstream official media account even released a live video of Xu Yuan's speech. When netizens heard that the Global Space Exploration Alliance would build a base on the moon, they were surprised and opened their mouths wide.

Although the events of the Zhengtu and the lunar base have already raised everyone's acceptance level.

Improved people's self-confidence.

But faced with such a large project, it is somewhat beyond our imagination.

Many netizens discussed this matter in the topic areas of commonly used social networking platforms.

While expressing surprise, he was also full of expectations for the project.

"Great! The alliance's subsequent actions are getting bigger and bigger."

"Chief Xu is really charming."

“It’s a moment when all the stars of humanity shine. I can’t imagine what it would be like to be in such an occasion.”

"Interstellar spaceships are such great things. Only one is too few. We should try to speed up the construction of the second interstellar spaceship."

"I really want to see what the complete version of the moon base looks like."

"We will soon be able to mine lunar resources. This was unthinkable before."

“It seems that there are many more world records to be created by the Space Exploration Alliance in the future.”

……

Of course, more people's attention is still on Mars, mainly because no one can refuse to become a Martian.

However, different voices emerged later. Some people believed that it was too early to transform Mars now, and we should wait until the technological development of human civilization was further improved.

"Shit, what did I hear? Is the Alliance really going to take action against Mars?"

"To transform the Martian environment so quickly?"

"If the transformation can be successful, it will be a great thing that will benefit future generations. I am still looking forward to seeing the specific plan."

"Given the current rate of development of human civilization, it is only a matter of time before we leave Earth. We should really prepare in advance to open up a new home."

"I hope Chief Xu can come up with a truly feasible transformation plan."

"I think it's too early to transform Mars now. Even though we already have a spacecraft that can travel at 1% the speed of light, it's still too small to face a planet."

"That's Mars. Can we really do that?"

“Perhaps in the future humans will be able to build a city on Mars like they did on the moon, but it is still too difficult to transform it into a second Earth.”

"Just trust Chief Xu and it'll be over."

The debate among netizens with different opinions did not stop there.

Instead, its popularity climbed to the top of the hot search list, overshadowing all discussions about the conference.

Some people even held a vote to collect people's opinions on the transformation of the Martian environment.

But arguing about these things now obviously has no substantive meaning.

After all, the alliance has not approved this matter yet.

The key is to see what specific plan Xu Yuan comes up with.

Xu Yuan didn't know that his speech at the Space Exploration Alliance meeting had caused such a heated debate among everyone.

His entire attention is focused on the study of Martian samples.

I don't have time to go online to find out about this.

Entering March.

Relevant institutions, laboratories and universities around the world have begun to release their research results on Martian soil samples.

This will give us a clearer understanding of the composition of Martian soil.

The number of related papers has increased dramatically. Even the covers of the latest issues of Science and Nature are all occupied by Martian samples.

This is all thanks to the Global Space Exploration Alliance, which sent out a lot of soil samples.

at the same time.

There was still no news from the Global Space Exploration Alliance Laboratory.

This does not mean that the research progress of the alliance laboratory is lower than that of other institutions and universities. The main thing is that the standards required by both parties are different.

After all, the Alliance Laboratory is studying and analyzing Martian soil samples in an attempt to verify the feasibility of transforming the Martian environment.

It will naturally take more time in between.

"Chief Xu."

"This is the latest Martian environmental data transmitted today. All equipment and instruments are operating normally."

In the data computing hall of the Alliance Laboratory, Xu Yuan stared at the huge main display screen in front of him. After hearing the report from Professor Wood beside him, he retracted his gaze and turned around.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"I see."

He nodded calmly in response, and the next second he looked at He Luping who was standing not far away.

Asked: "Does the Zhengtu have any missions in the near future?"

Facing Xu Yuan's question, He Luping answered in the affirmative tone without any pause.

"Yes, there is a mission. The Zhengtu will go to the moon this time to transport a new group of astronauts and resource mining equipment."

"After the Zhengtu spacecraft completes its mission on the moon, it will fly to Mars and deploy new detection equipment at the north and south poles of Mars." Upon hearing this, Xu Yuan spoke in a deep voice about his arrangements.

After all, it was our first trip to Mars, so some preparations were not sufficient. Apart from mining a lot of soil samples, the locations of the detection equipment and instruments were relatively concentrated.

Although this can transmit monitoring data back on time, the analysis of Mars is not comprehensive.

That's why Xu Yuan wanted to send the spacecraft to Mars again.

This time, various monitoring equipment will be deployed at the two poles of Mars.

Only by obtaining relatively comprehensive real data and substituting it into the model for deduction and calculation can we give relatively accurate results and thus judge whether the Mars environment transformation plan is feasible.

He Luping naturally had no objection to Xu Yuan's arrangement.

Although arranging tasks for the Zhengtu beyond its original mission would have been a serious violation of regulations in the past and would never have been allowed.

But at that time, such regulations were mainly due to the fact that the power of manned spacecraft was very limited.

It is necessary to fly on the original orbit to successfully complete the mission.

Even any change could cause the manned spacecraft to escape the control of ground command.

Being in space in that situation is dangerous.

But these are impossible situations for the current Zhengtu.

After all, a trip to Mars only takes a few hours.

It is not an exaggeration to say that sending out the Zhengtu just to travel around the moon would be a waste of its resources.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is like using an anti-aircraft gun to kill a mosquito.

So He Luping agreed without saying anything, "I'll arrange it quickly."

Xu Yuan listened to what the other party said, and then he felt a little relaxed. Then he raised his eyes and spoke to himself.

"What I have to do next is to build this big model with all my strength."

According to Xu Yuan's plan, he is going to build a nearly realistic large model for Mars, and run it using the Jiuzhang No. 6 quantum computer. Then, by controlling the input variables, he will calculate the changes in the Martian environment and determine what the final specific conditions of the Martian environment will be like after adopting these plans to transform the Martian environment.

To do this, only the Jiuzhang No. 6 quantum computer can support the calculation of the model.

On previous supercomputers, the calculation would either take a very long time or the results would be inaccurate.

A lot of data has been obtained from the research and analysis of Martian soil.

By monitoring Mars with a large number of monitoring equipment, the model can become realistic.

Although Xu Yuan has focused on the development of the aerospace industry in recent years, he is equally good at building models. You should know that he is best at mathematics.

It can only be said that there are too many halos surrounding him, so much so that some of them have been covered up with the passage of time.

However, in order to ensure that the model can be perfected as soon as possible, he certainly cannot do it alone.

Therefore, he specially invited many experts in related fields to help.

Some of them even came from Qinghua.

The hundreds of scientific research experts in the Global Space Exploration Alliance mainly focus on space-related fields. If they were to establish large mathematical models, they would probably be relatively inadequate.

The key is that I may not be able to cooperate with Xu Yuan, which will also affect the progress.

As the saying goes, every profession has its own expertise, Xu Yuan decided to leave professional matters to professionals.

After all, not everyone is as omnipotent as him.

When the thought stayed here, Xu Yuan thought of something else and couldn't help but say a few more words to He Luping and Wood.

"In the next few days, there will be quite a few more people coming to help, and we need to put everyone in their proper places."

"Don't worry, Chief."

Both of them are veterans in the aerospace field, and they have a very pure heart for scientific research. They would not make mistakes when faced with such small matters, so they responded in unison.

They all said they would get this done.

However, compared with He Luping's absolute trust in Xu Yuan, Wood was still a little worried.

He was not sure whether Xu Yuan's method could really calculate the most feasible plan for transforming the Martian environment.

He was also more worried that the Mars environment transformation project would be rejected by the alliance, making it impossible to implement it.

Perhaps because he was born into a starship research and development team, he has more complicated feelings towards Mars and hopes to see Mars change in his hands.

From a dead planet where humans could not survive, it has become a new home for human civilization.

But obviously he had no say in this matter.

We can only place all our hopes on Xu Yuan.

Finally, after his lips moved slightly, he swallowed his words back.

Didn't say anything.

-

Xu Yuan naturally would not guess what other people were thinking. The most important thing for him now was to build the model as soon as possible.

So in the next few days, as the relevant experts who were invited started to work and cooperated with Xu Yuan to improve the model, the progress of the entire model building also increased rapidly.

Especially when the monitoring equipment placed at the two poles of Mars by astronauts on board the Zhengtu began to play a role and transmitted back real data parameters, the model became more perfect.

Later on, even those who were invited to help were amazed by this model.

I couldn't even believe that I was involved in perfecting it.

Just like that, as time passed, just a few months passed.

The model of the Martian environment has been basically completed, and Xu Yuan is also preparing to try to input relevant environmental transformation plan variables to calculate the final result.
