Chapter 530 Surprise on the Moon
After obtaining the molecular structure, compound structure, and molecular form of the energy-releasing material through various instruments and data analysis, Han Yuan started busy work again.

With the original basic data, what he has to do now is to use various methods to restore it.

How to combine each material, how to refine it, what kind of additives are needed, how high the temperature is needed in the smelting process, what environment, etc.
This step is a bit like reconciling a math problem where you only know what the answer is, but you are required to write down the detailed disintegration steps.

The most important thing is that you still don't know how to do this question.

So knowing the answer is useless, the process still requires you to constantly formulate mathematical formulas and deduce bit by bit.

However, compared to ordinary students, he is a top student with a black technology system, and the knowledge and information of elementary and intermediate materials in his mind can provide him with a lot of help.

The different smelting methods of each compound, the required conditions, and the way of putting together other compound materials in the energy-releasing material, these things can be gone through in your mind now.

Keep those that meet the standards, and filter out those that don't. This greatly reduces the number of subsequent combination experiments, but it is a huge burden on his brain.

After all, the amount of data is too large.

After more than a month of tossing, South Korean won finally selected all the data that met the smelting standards.

The rest of the combined smelting experiment was left to Xiao Ling and Xiao Qi.

As for himself, he had more important things to do.

After all, five months have passed since the second year, and none of the goals for the second year of his outer space exploration mission have been achieved.

Thinking about it, Han Yuan opened the system panel and checked the task information.

[Outer Space Exploration Mission - Main Mission: Extraterrestrial Base]

Requirements for the main task of Earth-Moon Contact: Establish a space station base on any planet in the parent galaxy other than the simulated Earth within three years, and live broadcast for no less than eight hours a day.

Extraterrestrial Base Main Mission Rewards: "Determined according to the scale, quantity, and distance of the established space stations."

[Outer space exploration mission branch chain mission [-]: overlooking the earth (not completed)]

【.】

[Outer space exploration mission branch chain mission [-]: Resource collection (not completed)]

【.】

[Outer space exploration mission branch chain mission [-]: Galactic data collection (not completed)]

【.】

[Outer Space Exploration Branch Chain Mission [-]: Looking at the Starry Sky (Basic mission completed, extended mission in progress)]

【.】

There are five tasks, one main task, and four branch tasks. Strictly speaking, he has not completed any of them.

Even the branch mission [-], the stargazing mission, also has an additional mission to collect data on exoplanetary galaxies.

In terms of progress, in fact, the outer space exploration mission branch chain task [-] 'resource collection' and branch chain task [-] 'galaxy data collection' are the fastest.

Because in the first year, he launched a large number of various detection satellites into the sky. These detection satellites are not orbiting satellites, but are launched for every planet in the solar system.

And even now, these satellites used to explore other stars in the solar system are still being launched continuously.

Won's requirement for himself is to collect at least information on more than 60.00% of the stars in the solar system.

Of course, this requirement is based on the removal of those small meteorites, meteors and other asteroids.

Otherwise, with a small star with a solar coefficient of millions, it would not be enough for him to launch a hundred satellites into the sky every day for more than two years.

And according to the information that Xiao Qi sent back before, now all the large-scale celestial bodies, from stars to planets, to dwarf planets and satellites, have all the information on these large-scale celestial bodies collected.

At present, some of these satellites launched into the sky are improving more detailed data, and the other part is close to the meteorite belt, and the satellites in the edge zone are changing orbits to collect data on these small and medium-sized stars.

In addition, South Korea also arranged for resource collection vehicles to collect enough soil and rocks from Mars, the moon, Venus, and Mercury, the four planets closest to the earth and relatively suitable for resource collection, and bring them back.

After all, the requirement of the outer space exploration mission branch chain mission [-]'resource collection' is to collect at least one element that is not found on the simulated earth.

There are no elements on the earth, which is destined to rely on resources on other planets to complete this task.

To be on the safe side, Han Yuan arranged for eight resource collection vehicles, two for each of the moon, Mars, Venus, and Mercury, responsible for collecting enough resources to bring back for analysis.

In this way, even if it is not found on a certain planet, the other three still have some guarantees.

If it weren't for the current technology that doesn't support him landing on gaseous planets, and the fact that Pluto and its companion star are too far away, Han Yuan plans to arrange some resource collection vehicles to land on other planets.

However, the resources of the four planets should be almost enough.

Compared with the three celestial bodies that are farther away than Mars, Venus and Mercury, the first to return is naturally the lunar rover.

According to Xiaoqi's feedback, the lunar rover has arrived in the outer space of the earth and is passing through the atmosphere. It is expected to arrive at the base in three hours.

More importantly, according to Xiaoqi's feedback, the lunar rover brought him some surprises.

Han Yuan didn't ask what it was, it was only three hours anyway, and he was looking forward to unwrapping this surprise by himself.

Three hours is not a long time. With the notification from Won, the audience in the live broadcast room also knew that the lunar rover was coming back soon, and squatted in the live broadcast room to discuss.

[Is the anchor's lunar rover coming back soon? 】

[Compared with no one exploring the moon, I am more looking forward to the day when the anchor will set foot on the moon. 】

[Today happens to be Mid-Autumn Festival, I wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival. 】

[In this case, I will let it go publicly, Chang'e is my wife. 】

[Upstairs is just drinking, not eating any mooncakes with five kernels. 】

[Even if there is a peanut, you won't be so drunk. 】

[Since it was announced that the lunar soil cannot grow vegetables, I am not interested in the moon. 】

[Hahahaha, I don't pay much attention anymore. 】

[True, engraved in the bones of a great country's genes! 】

【Chang’e wanted to cry when I heard this, I’ve worked so hard to dig up two kilograms of soil from the moon, but what you’re concerned about is whether you can grow vegetables? 】

[Land that cannot grow vegetables, is that still called land?It's useless! 】

Looking at these bullet screens, Han Yuan couldn't help but laugh.

It is true that lunar soil cannot be used to grow vegetables. First, lunar soil does not contain any organic nutrients and is very dry, unlike earth soil, which is rich in microorganisms and organic nutrients.

The second is because the long-term solar wind has injected a large amount of helium-3 into the lunar soil, so it is impossible to grow any crops on it.

However, whether the lunar soil can be used to grow vegetables is a point worthy of attention, but no matter how you say it, this attention cannot be ranked first.

It can only be said that for Chinese people, farming is in their DNA, and the land that cannot grow crops is rubbish.

Not to mention others, but himself, in today's popular X-1 industrial robots, he occasionally goes to the plantation area to fiddle with and observe the growth of the crops inside.

This is probably genetic at work.

As time passed, the space shuttle carrying lunar soil gradually appeared in the distant sky, a small black spot quickly grew in size, and then quickly and smoothly landed on the dedicated landing site.

Han Yuan looked at the space shuttle that had stopped not far away but did not pass by. He just watched some industrial robots busy with various tools from a distance.

The spacecraft that came back from alien planets, even the moon that humans have been to many times, must be sterilized before they can be touched.

The disinfecting task is naturally taken care of by the X-1 industrial robot.

After waiting for more than half an hour, the industrial robots that had fully completed the disinfecting task retreated, and a new batch of robots carrying lunar soil and moon rocks came, and Han Yuan followed.

The two lunar exploration resource collection vehicles collected a large amount of lunar soil and lunar rocks, two full boxes, hundreds of times more than the sum of all lunar soil collected in human history.

Following the X-1 industrial robot, Han Yuan came all the way to the dedicated laboratory.

By the time he finished cleaning and put on his protective equipment, the silver-white metal box containing the moon soil and moon rocks had been taken apart.

Several industrial robots are separating the lunar soil and rocks into different transparent containers according to the needs.

The audience in the live broadcast room watched curiously, and were amazed at the amount of moon soil and moon rocks collected by the won.

[The anchor robbed the Moon Palace?Moving back so much soil and rock? 】

[Two big boxes, good guy.This weight is afraid of several tons, right? 】

[Chang'e No. [-]: I cried to death. I brought back less than two kilograms in one trip, and others carried them home in boxes. 】

[The soil on the moon is much more expensive than gold. I remember that a gram of lunar meteorites cost tens of thousands of meters of gold. The lunar soil used for research is probably more expensive. 】

[Anchor: Look at the two big boxes of lunar soil in front of me, is it expensive? 】

[It's expensive now, but it won't be so expensive in the future. When the anchor's spacecraft is built, let alone the lunar soil, even the soil on Pluto can be easily obtained. 】

[I heard that the soil of Pluto is full of various viruses. 】

[Don't talk about it, the average temperature in that place is minus 200 degrees, where the virus came from, some of them froze to death. 】

[This is the speculation of scientists. It seems to say that there is a warm ocean at the bottom of Pluto, which is very suitable for living things like viruses. 】

Han Yuan ignored the barrage in the live broadcast room, stepped forward to pick up a bottle of sealed moon soil and observed it carefully.

If it is purely from the appearance, the difference between the soil on the moon and the soil on the earth is actually quite big.

After observing the appearance, Han Yuan unscrewed the bottle cap, took out a little moon soil from the bottle with special protective gloves, put it in the palm of his hand and watched it carefully.

Compared with the delicate feeling of the soil on the earth, the lunar soil looks more grainy, more like the feeling that the rock has not been completely broken after weathering and breaking.

Of course, there is also fine lunar soil, but it is not the bottle it is holding.

As for the color, it is very different from the yellow of the soil. The lunar soil looks more like cement gray, and it has more obvious reflected light under ordinary lights.

So it's not so much soil as sand ash.

This is related to the formation of the lunar soil, which is completely different from the formation of the earth's soil. The lunar soil is a large bedrock that is continuously broken, mixed, and turned under the impact of small celestial bodies, and finally forms a fine sand layer on the surface of the moon.

As the boxes containing the moon soil and moon rocks were gradually disassembled, something unexpected appeared in front of Han Yuan's eyes, which made him stunned.

What appeared in front of him and the audience in the live broadcast room was a cylindrical glass container about [-] centimeters long and [-] centimeters in diameter.

In the container, there is more than half of the bottle of transparent solution.

Seeing this, Han Yuan couldn't help swallowing, and quickly stepped forward to take out the glass container from the box.

"Xiaoqi, is this the surprise you mentioned?"

"That's right, the No. [-] Lunar Exploration Rover discovered a large-scale piece of lunar ice on the moon on the last day. It is preliminarily judged that this piece of lunar ice will be about [-] billion tons if it is completely melted. These are collected in the glass container. part."

"It's a pity that the spacecraft did not carry an insulated container, so it can only be stored in an ordinary container. During the transportation, all the moon ice has melted."

In the laboratory, Xiao Qi's slightly regretful voice sounded.

Hearing Xiaoqi's voice, Han Yuan and the audience in the studio were stunned.

Although it is known that there may be lunar ice on the moon, satellites launched by various countries have also provided evidence that there is indeed a large amount of water ice on the surface of the moon.

But the tens of billions of tons of lunar ice is incredible.

Such a large amount of lunar ice is enough to build a large city around it.

Taking Star City, where South Korean Won actually lives, as an example, the annual water consumption is about 35 to 38 billion cubic meters, or about 35 billion tons.

100 billion tons is enough for Changsha to save a little for three years.

And this number, put on the moon, is really enough for a city to establish a fairly complete water cycle, which can almost guarantee that the city will last forever.

So when they heard the news, Han Yuan and the people from various countries squatting in the live broadcast room were breathing heavily.

Xiao Qi's surprise was really big enough.

"What about the address? Has the location of this piece of lunar ice been recorded?"

Han Yuan held the glass container and asked while observing the liquid inside.

"It has been recorded, but at present the moon has not established perfect latitude and longitude information. We can only create a trajectory map based on the trajectory of the space shuttle and the No. [-] lunar rover to ensure that we can find this piece of lunar ice. It takes Xiaoqi Is the exact location mapped out?"

Xiao Qi's voice sounded again, Han Yuan nodded and said, "I don't need it for now, just find it."

It is actually better not to have accurate coordinates. Ten billion tons of lunar ice can be said to be a strategic resource.

At present, although countries already know the existence of this piece of lunar ice, they don't know its exact location, so Huaguo has the coordinates to step out of the earth and establish the first base on an alien planet.

Although the "Moon Agreement" stipulates that the moon and its natural resources are the common property of all mankind.

But there is a problem with this kind of collective ownership of celestial bodies, that is, "everyone has it, but not everyone really owns it."

With the current strength of Huaguo, if the base is really going to be built, is it possible that someone can dismantle it?

And on the moon, water is a consumable resource, so it needs to be used to build a base?Is it necessary for personnel activities?Let’s use it for experiments. The recycling mechanism is just that. For small-scale spaceships, you can use it for reference. Large-scale bases cannot be recycled without replenishment.

So if you use a little, you will use less. Huaguo used some first, and there will naturally be fewer people behind.
