Chapter 132 Life-like body!

The second Mars Conference of the United Nations in Abu Dhabi lasted for five days and quarreled for five days. In the end, no agreement was reached. There were major differences in the interests of all parties, and there was no agreement at all.

The only consensus is that all parties must control themselves and try not to cause armed conflicts on Mars and other celestial bodies...

……

At the same time, He Xiao from Hawke Island received an urgent report from the Hawke Island Academy of Sciences.

He took the report, opened it, and the result surprised and delighted him!

One of the five Duke [-] Mars rovers discovered a "microbe" suspected to have life-like characteristics in the ocean near the North Pole of Mars!
According to the information sent back, this may be a "microorganism" that is completely different from the Blue Star creature and has a strong vitality. The cellular structure of living things.

It means that it can produce material communication with the external environment!
Yes, it can turn dissolved carbon dioxide in the Martian ocean into oxygen!
Carbon element, absorbed by it!
Also, it absorbs moisture.

Similar to photosynthesis, but it doesn't seem to be photosynthesis...

Because experiments have shown that it can carry out this reaction even in places without sunlight, but the effect is much weaker...

Moreover, according to the photos taken by the microscope attached to the Duke [-] Mars rover, it proves that it does not have cells similar to blue star organisms, and its structure is completely different from that of viruses, but is composed of many strip particles!

These strip-like particles are only about one-tenth the volume of cells, generally 3 microns in length, and no more than 0.5 microns in thickness...

The most amazing thing is when the temperature exceeds 55 degrees or falls below minus 50 degrees.

These strips of particles will actively lose all water and become "mummy", no longer have any signs of life, just like sand or wood chips, but if the temperature returns to within -50 to 55 degrees, and there is enough water around, it will It will absorb water and "resurrect" again!
When He Xiao saw this description, he was extremely excited, because it had been confirmed that this was indeed a new kind of life, completely different from life on earth!

For a long time, human beings have been looking for extraterrestrial life. On the one hand, it is because the blue star life is too lonely. In the vast universe, it seems that only one planet, the blue star, gave birth to life. Research has been stagnant for a long time, and no substantial breakthroughs have been achieved. If extraterrestrial life can be found, and their origin and evolution process analyzed, it may have an unexpected stimulating effect on the biological development of human beings.

As far as He Xiao himself is concerned, his previous research on superpowers has been limited to a stagnant state for a long time, and there is no way to make new progress. Obviously, it should be the entry he edited. There is a problem with the directionality, which deviates from reality Too big, so the entry difficulty can be said to be impossible to complete...

If the new life discovered on Mars this time can inspire him and give him a real development direction, maybe he can make new breakthroughs, especially in terms of lifespan.

Although he has an entry system, as long as he has enough time, he can completely change the world, or even the entire universe, but lifespan is always a problem.

He has also tried some before, such as [Longevity Fruit] [Longevity Gene Potion], but because he did not have the foundation and did not complete the pre-technology, the difficulty was extremely high, so high that it was impossible to complete it.

……

He Xiao thought of another question, did this kind of life originally exist on Mars, or did it come about because he used entries to transform Mars?

After thinking for a while, he thinks it should be the former, because if it is the latter, then the system will additionally deduce the process of the birth of this kind of life-like body, and the difficulty must not be only tens of millions...

There is no need for the system to do so.

In other words, this kind of life-like body existed on Mars, but because it is too small and special, although humans have explored Mars many times, they have never discovered it!
But here comes the question again, in such a harsh environment on Mars, how could there be life all the time...

Moreover, He Xiao used the entries to test life on Mars before, and the number of readers was very high. At that time, he judged that there should be no life on Mars, as humans have always known, so he has never thought too much about it. Big expectations.

But the discovery now seems to prove that this is not the case...

correct!

Perhaps it is precisely because of the automatic dehydration characteristics of this life-like body under extreme conditions that it has survived on Mars until now!
When the temperature is too high or the temperature is too low, it will automatically dehydrate to prevent its own tissues from being scalded to death or frozen!
In this case, it has no signs of life at all. Whether it counts as life is a question...

There is also a possibility that human beings' cognition and definition of life may not be accurate, or that human beings' definition of life itself has contradictions. In this case, when He Xiao edited the entry, he did not It can well describe the original meaning he wants to express, the meaning understood by the system, there may be a little difference...

If you want to test whether there is life on Mars, you must have an accurate understanding and definition of life. Humans currently know only one kind of life, and the definition cannot be precise, so it is not surprising that the test results are biased.

Human language cannot give a 100% accurate description of anything in this world, especially if you have enough knowledge about it.

For example, an ancient person, who didn't even know what air was, how could he describe oxygen or nitrogen accurately...

The same is true for He Xiao. When he tested whether there is life on Mars, maybe the life he understood, the life he described, and the life understood by the system are not the same concept at all...

Therefore, testing is not a panacea. Some truths of the universe need to be fully understood before accurate test results can be obtained.

For example, in the harsh environment of Mars, this type of life is likely to be in a dehydrated state most of the time, without the typical characteristics of blue star life such as metabolism and stress response, so the system may not judge it at all. Recognition of "life" for Blue Star...

"Don't worry about this anymore. The key now is to make use of this discovery to take Hawk Island's technology to a higher level. It is best to let yourself obtain the technology that prolongs life and keeps youth forever..."

He Xiao was thinking whether to announce this discovery to the world.

If there is no entry system, this discovery must be kept hidden for as long as possible. Seizing the opportunity is the key. If you let other countries take the lead, you may be very passive in the future.

But his entry system requires the number of readers. In other words, if you want to make full use of the entry system, you must let people all over the world know the relevant information.

Then, the world must be told!
Of course, he couldn't tell them the complete truth. In that case, he would have no room to play...
