Academicians of major countries start from top students

The place with the most asteroids in the solar system is undoubtedly the asteroid belt, which is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. If we want to adopt a plan to control asteroids from hitting the surface of Mars, selecting asteroids from here is undoubtedly the most convenient and appropriate.

As the large model began to apply variables, everyone on the scene could see from the screen that a demonstrated asteroid was rapidly hitting Mars.

Eventually it hits the surface of Mars, causing a huge reaction.

A large amount of energy and gas is released at the same time.

This causes the air pressure on Mars to increase.

Looking at the various numerical display positions of Mars on the model, it can be seen that the atmospheric pressure has indeed undergone tremendous changes.

At this time, Peng Yiheng saw the whole change. Although he had great confidence in the environmental transformation plan prepared by Xu Yuan, he was somewhat worried.

After a slight hesitation, he looked at Xu Yuan and said something.

"Isn't it a bit risky to artificially control asteroids to hit Mars? What if greenhouse gases are used?"

You should know that the Earth has also been hit by an asteroid, which resulted in mass extinction of life.

Therefore, facing such a horrific natural disaster, it is inevitable to feel fear.

After all, if the orbit of an asteroid deviates or the impact on Mars is too great during the process of controlling it, it may indirectly affect the Earth.

Transforming the Martian environment is for the future of human civilization.

But the prerequisite is to ensure the safety of the earth.

Xu Yuan listened to what Peng Yiheng said and was about to speak when he found that Professor Wood next to him had already spoken first to respond.

"In order to speed up the transformation of the Martian environment as much as possible, it is necessary to take appropriate risks."

"If we only rely on greenhouse gas emissions, this efficiency is too low."

"Besides, the Alliance has already completed a very detailed and thorough plan for asteroid impacts on Mars, and the accuracy rate can basically reach 100%."

“So there’s no need to worry too much.”

According to the plan proposed by Xu Yuan, a suitable asteroid will be selected as the target, and a high-power nuclear fusion engine will be installed on the asteroid through the Zhengtu interstellar spacecraft.

Rely on this engine to accurately control the collision with Mars.

It can be said that when he first saw the plan, he was shocked by its boldness and ingenious conception.

I made my own judgment on the spot.

This plan is considered to be completely feasible.

With such a plan that can effectively accelerate the transformation of the Martian environment, how could he choose traditional greenhouse gas emissions?

Of course, the reason why Xu Yuan’s plan is highly praised by the alliance is also inseparable from the development of science and technology of human civilization today. If humans do not have powerful nuclear fusion engines and interstellar spacecraft, then it would be almost impossible for humans to accurately intervene and control asteroids.

Peng Yiheng learned from Professor Wood that this seemingly dangerous method actually has a 100% success rate.

There was also surprise in the look he gave Xu Yuan.

As for Xu Yuan at this time, he nodded in acknowledgment and gave an affirmative answer.

"That's exactly what Professor Wood said."

At this point, Peng Yiheng naturally no longer had any questions.

Then he turned his attention back to the display screen in front of him.

at the same time.

After receiving the variables, the large model continues to calculate and simulate the Martian environment.

As asteroid impacts caused the atmospheric pressure on Mars to increase, humans began to invest more effort in developing Mars.

The most important of these is to build nuclear fusion reactors.

Use the energy of nuclear fusion to heat Mars.

Increase the average ambient temperature on Mars.

In addition, artificial magnetic fields need to be established at the North and South Poles of Mars.

Although this is also a huge project, it is actually much easier due to the existence of room-temperature superconducting materials.

Once these two items are completed, it will only be necessary to increase the oxygen concentration and try to transplant the plants.

Build an ecosystem.

By that time, mankind will have a second new home.

that's it.

Almost another half hour passed.

The calculation and simulation of the changes in the Martian environment has basically come to an end.

Although the model's calculated evolution of environmental changes on Mars spans a century, for a superconducting quantum computer, it is basically just a matter of tens of minutes.

The key is that the results of these dozens of minutes of evolution are so accurate that everyone is convinced.

Because the previous verification of the model is the best explanation.

So when the simulation ended, applause and cheers suddenly broke out in the hall.

"Our plan was successful!"

"Great."

"so beautiful."

"Is this what Mars will look like in the future? Oh my God!"

In this atmosphere, even Peng Yiheng, who was not very familiar with the field of space exploration, looked at the Mars displayed on the screen, which was almost the same as the Earth's environment. At this moment, he couldn't help but have a strong desire to transform the Martian environment in his mind.

But it is normal to have such thoughts.

After all, we have seen with our own eyes that Mars, which was originally desolate and cold and where no life could survive, has become a planet with a complete ecosystem thanks to the efforts of human civilization.

This sense of accomplishment and satisfaction is an irresistible temptation for anyone.

"So beautiful!"

As various thoughts emerged in my mind, they finally turned into an exclamation from the heart.

The cheers in the hall lasted for several minutes before gradually dying down. As for Professor Wood, he could no longer hold back and walked up to Xu Yuan and asked immediately: "Now that our plan has been verified to be successful by the model, can we formally submit an application to the alliance and take our first step?" He did not hide the expectant expression on his face while speaking.

Xu Yuan naturally understood what Professor Wood meant. The first step was to control the asteroid to hit Mars.

However, even if the plan adopts some bold and radical methods to transform the Martian environment, it will take a hundred years of effort to establish an ecosystem.

This requires a continuous investment of various resources.

Therefore, it is obviously not possible for such a major project, which can be called the project of the century, to be passed only within the Global Space Exploration Alliance.

It must be agreed upon by the majority of the alliance’s member states to ensure that it can be implemented jointly by the entire human civilization.

But whether we should say it or not, we should bring this matter to the surface and talk about it now.

With the thought lingering here, Xu Yuan no longer kept the question in suspense and immediately nodded and answered.

“I will submit my application as soon as possible.”

Professor Wood was delighted at first, but then his expression darkened as if he had thought of something. He wanted to say something, but he moved his lips, but he couldn't say it.

Obviously, no matter how good the plan they come up with is, it may not necessarily be approved.

Who made this project so huge?

It can be said to be unprecedented and requires the efforts of several generations.

However, the situation has come to this point now. Regardless of whether the final plan is approved or not, it must be submitted for approval.

What if it really happens?
Xu Yuan noticed the changes in Professor Wood's expression. Compared with the other party, he was more confident.

Mainly in the last conference, core member states of the alliance have already taken the initiative to ask about the transformation of the Martian environment. This shows that among the major member states of the alliance, they are also more inclined to work on the Martian environment.

If you submit a practical transformation plan at this time, the success rate will undoubtedly be greatly increased.

……

Xu Yuan did not waste any time on this matter.

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

Almost on the same day that the plan was successfully verified, he formally submitted an application to the alliance in his capacity as chief scientist, requesting the alliance to approve the Mars environment transformation project.

As soon as this plan was submitted, it immediately attracted great attention from the core member states of the alliance.

After preliminary resolution, it was decided to hold a special meeting two days later.

Let's discuss together whether to implement this plan.

It is worth mentioning that this meeting was convened on an ad hoc basis and was specifically for the Mars environment transformation project.

Therefore, most representatives of member states are unable to come in person to participate.

The only option is to appear online.

As for the scientific researchers who attended this special meeting, there were only Xu Yuan, He Luping, Wood and a few others.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

When the special meeting was held on time, Xu Yuan and others sat in their seats.

In front of them is a huge display screen with many figures segmented out on it. They are obviously the representatives of the member states who will be attending the meeting online.

Xu Yuan knew very well what to do today and the topics that everyone was most interested in.

So as soon as he got the right to speak, he prepared to explain his plan.

This is to convince other member states that the harsh Martian environment can still be transformed into a vibrant planet after being transformed by human civilization.

But he had just opened his mouth to say a word when the representative of the member state on the screen raised his hand and interrupted him.

"I think everyone has carefully analyzed and read the plan for transforming the Martian environment, but what I want to talk about today is..."

"There is no need to doubt a plan that Chief Xu supports."

Although he was forced to stop speaking, Xu Yuan still felt comfortable being trusted in this way.

So he took over the conversation and responded, "Thank you for the alliance's trust in me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a representative of a member state of the alliance said firmly: "Mars environmental transformation is related to the future second home of human civilization. No matter how much effort it takes, we should fully support it without hesitation."

It basically shows the attitude, that is, agreeing to transform the environment of Mars.

After this attitude was expressed, other representatives on the screen also echoed and agreed.

It should be so easy to pass the Mars environment transformation plan.

It should be something to be happy about.

But Xu Yuan always felt that things might not be that simple, as if the member states had already reached some kind of consensus.

really.

This atmosphere lasted for less than a minute before the representatives continued speaking.

"But the future hope of human civilization cannot be placed entirely on the transformation of the Martian environment."

"We hope to send an interstellar spacecraft as a pioneer of human civilization to visit and explore our neighboring star Proxima Centauri while transforming the Martian environment."

Xu Yuan listened to all these words, although he was mentally prepared.

But after learning that an interstellar spacecraft would be sent to Proxima Centauri, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

You should know that Proxima Centauri is the closest star to the solar system.

Although it is indeed full of mystery and humans know nothing about it, even if the two sides are neighbors in the Milky Way, the distance between them is a terrifying four light years.

It is obvious that with the rapid development of technology in human civilization, our acting skills are no longer limited to the solar system.

Can't wait to visit my neighbors.

See if we can make any new and significant discoveries in unfamiliar star systems.

Although the starting point is good and it is something that must be done in the development of human civilization, at the current flight speed of the Journey, even if it takes people to Proxima Centauri, no matter what major discoveries are made, their generation will definitely not be able to see them.

But this result was not what Xu Yuan wanted to see.

After all, as a scientific researcher, no one wants to end his life with such regrets.

So in this case, the flying speed of the Zhengtu is obviously not suitable for traveling to Proxima Centauri.

It is necessary to rebuild a new interstellar spacecraft and ensure that the flight speed is increased again.

It must at least reach 20 percent of the speed of light.

In this way, their generation will be able to know what was brought back from Proxima Centauri.

Originally, the plan for transforming the Martian environment had been verified through model simulation, and all that needed to be done afterwards was to follow the steps, and the rest would be completed with time.

In a way, it was no longer challenging for him.

And he didn't intend to take personal responsibility for the subsequent series of steps.

But now the new task given by the alliance makes him excited and eager to try.

It is not even an exaggeration to say that this feeling has not appeared for a long time.

After careful consideration, he finally raised his eyes and gave his answer with a firm gaze.

"With the speed and positioning of the Zhengtu alone, there is no way it can carry out the exploration mission to Proxima Centauri. The lack of a weapon system means that the Zhengtu's flight range is limited to the solar system."

"Therefore, I will redesign a brand new interstellar spaceship, which will lead the vanguard of human civilization to complete the visit and exploration of the neighboring galaxy in a few decades."

After hearing Xu Yuan's denial in the first half, the representatives of the alliance member countries on the screen showed visibly disappointed expressions on their faces.

Until I heard that Xu Yuan was going to design a brand new interstellar spaceship and agreed to explore Proxima Centauri.

I suddenly became excited.

Later, documents were signed directly at the meeting. In addition to agreeing to the Mars environment transformation plan and announcing it to the world, they also approved the research and development and manufacturing project of a new interstellar spacecraft.

When these two things became known to the public, they instantly caused a global sensation.
