Homo sapiens

In order to facilitate the management of the Venus colony, Wu Feng took the technically proven magnetic-class 005 spacecraft to Venus in January of Galaxy 6.

He was accompanied by 300 interstellar immigrants.

This is the third batch of immigrants. From now on, at least 1,200 people will immigrate to the Venus colony from Earth every month.

In the cryogenic chamber of the magnetic-class spacecraft, Wu Feng and others are in a frozen state, although the current voyage from the earth to Venus is slightly closer than Mars.

If Venus is closest to Earth during the period, a magnetic-class spacecraft can reach Venus from Earth in less than twenty days.

When large-scale supplies were delivered to Venus before, the time period when Venus was closest to the Earth was specially selected, saving 85% of the voyage and fuel.

However, this recent time period can only be encountered once every 580 days on average.

57 days later.

Wu Feng and his team were awakened from the cryo-sleep cabin.

He arrived at the geostationary space station on Venus.

From the Venus synchronous orbiting space station, you can see that there is a "white cloud" with a clear outline in the atmosphere of Venus, which is the Cloud Palace Base.

Thanks to the successive commissioning of mining bases, the scale of the Yungong base has been expanded again, reaching 28,000 square kilometers.

A group of interstellar immigrants who had just woken up were also looking at Venus with great curiosity.

There is a very conspicuous "white cloud" on the surface of this orange-red planet.

Wu Feng rested for more than three hours at the Venus synchronous orbit space station, and then took a group of interstellar immigrants on an airship to the Yungong base.

Inside the Yungong base.

Currently, 15 specialized residential areas have been built internally. These residential areas are scattered in various areas of the base and can accommodate a total of 15,000 permanent residents.

After stepping into the Yungong base, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

This feeling of being bound to the ground by gravity is so wonderful.

After Wu Feng said goodbye to the interstellar immigrants, he immediately went to the command center of the base.

Deputy Minister Ivanovsky, who had been on duty for almost two months, stood up immediately after seeing Wu Feng: "Minister, you are finally here!"

"Thank you for your hard work. Let's take over the work right away!"

"Okay." Ivanovsky couldn't wait any longer.

The two quickly handed over the management of the entire Venus colony, especially the files during Wu Feng's dormancy, which were highlighted by Ivanovsky.

Two hours later, the two completed the handover, and Ivanovsky hurriedly logged off, preparing to take a month's leave.

Wu Feng, on the other hand, carefully looked through his recent work.

Among them, the mining base project that he is most concerned about has been officially put into service. Four mining bases can produce one million tons of steel every week on average.

These steels were used in the construction of infrastructure, making the infrastructure of the entire Venus colony more and more complete.

He looked at the inventory data, which showed that there were nearly hundreds of thousands of tons of steel, silicon materials, and carbon materials in stock, and ordered to increase the scale of the mining base.

Strive to increase the scale of mining bases to 20 before the end of this year.

But before his butt could get hot, Ali, who was in charge of the construction of the Yungong base, hurried over.

"Minister, give me these immigrant workers!"

Wu Feng refused without even thinking about it: "Ali, don't be too fanciful. Now every department needs manpower, and I can't possibly give it to you."

"But now the second phase of the Yungong Base project is really short of people." Ali complained quickly.

Wu Feng waved his hand unmoved: "No, I will give you a maximum of 150 people. I need to arrange the remaining people to the mining industry."

"150 people?" Ali struggled for a while, but agreed to the distribution plan.

However, Wu Feng did not let him leave, but held a document: "What do you think about modifying the construction plan of Yungong Base?"

"That plan proposed by Designer Huang?"

Wu Feng nodded: "Yes, what do you think."

"I agree with this plan, but this plan is only a first draft and will definitely be completely filled in the future."

Wu Feng nodded.

In the holographic projection screen.

Venus is surrounded by a layer of floating islands, but this layer of floating islands is composed of large regular hexagons. Half of the regular hexagons are empty and part of them are floating islands.

Obviously the new plan is to save some time so that the floating islands can be formed into a whole in advance.

According to the new design plan, the floating islands will form a regular hexagonal whole, and then first cover one hemisphere, and then separate half of the regular hexagonal floating islands in the hemisphere and fill it into the other half of Venus' atmosphere.

Doing this can save some time.

Of course, the gaps between the floating islands will be gradually improved in the next phase of the project.

Until the floating islands completely cover the atmosphere of Venus.

In this way, the Homo sapiens company will obtain a complete floating island continent.

Ali reminded: "Minister, although this plan can be realized, using this plan requires great requirements for the skeleton strength of the regular hexagonal floating island."

"I know that technology is not a problem. Recently, we have found a high-strength ferrosilicon material from the alloy materials of the Six Claw Civilization. Not only is the material simple, but the production cost is also very low. It happens that Venus has related materials. "

The reason why Wu Feng dared to agree to this plan was because he had obtained part of the technology from the Six Claw Civilization.

It’s not that Homo sapiens doesn’t have materials beyond six-claw silicon steel, but it’s a matter of cost.

Many of those high-strength, high-temperature-resistant, and corrosion-resistant materials require the use of rare metals.

The Yun Palace project requires too many materials.

To cover the entire atmosphere of Venus, at least hundreds of billions of tons of materials are needed. Even if the alloy used as the skeleton accounts for only about one-tenth, it is still an astronomical figure.

If rare metals are added to these alloy materials, even if the rare metals on the surface of Venus are hollowed out, it may not be possible to collect so much materials.

The Six-Claw Civilization also encountered similar problems at the beginning. In the process of exploring aliens, many of the alloy materials needed to be doped with rare metals, and the Six-Claw Civilization itself, which is short of resources, cannot support such a large project. consumption.

Therefore, they took a different approach and developed high-strength alloy materials using silicon and iron. This material does not require the addition of rare metals. As silicon and iron are relatively high-content materials in the earth's crust, tens of billions of tons can still be collected.

The Homo sapiens company is gradually in-depth research on the technical data of the six-claw civilization.

As a resource-poor civilization, many material applications of the Six-Claw Civilization tend to be based on base metals and elements.

Those rare metals and rare elements can only be used by precision instruments and the royal family.

This is something that companies can learn from.

After all, the resources in the solar system are not infinite. As the Homo sapiens company gradually expands, the resources that will be consumed in the future will increase exponentially.

And by learning from the materials of the Six Claw Civilization, you can prepare for a rainy day.

Stones from other hills, can learn.

The current Cloud Palace project in the Venus colony has benefited from this.

Wu Feng also discovered this very practical six-claw silicon steel material from some recently declassified files of the six-claw civilization that had been kept secret.

The two discussed for more than half an hour before Ali left the office.

Wu Feng went to the Affiliated Materials Research Institute in the Yungong Base to inspect the technical reproduction of six-claw silicon steel.
