I am reborn as Sai, but the animation three-body

Chapter 235 Jupiter Economic Circle

"What about the difficulty of operation? I remember that although this kind of engineering robot is called a robot, it still relies on human operation." Sai asked after thinking about it.

"Small engineering robots do not require human operation, nor do large-scale engineering robots for normal work. Human operation is only required for special tasks and special situations."

"And the operation is not difficult. The man-machine combination you mentioned before is developing very fast in this era. Humans can directly turn large engineering robots into their own substitutes through special somatosensory equipment."

"So only those who have skilled space operation experience and have worked as space workers are able to operate engineering robots." The chief engineer explained.

Then he showed Say the work of engineering robots, which is to mine an asteroid, but this is not a live demonstration, but a recording and broadcasting.

In the holographic projection, this iron-containing asteroid is quite large, and according to the data, its diameter exceeds ten kilometers.

Thousands of engineering robots swarmed out of the engineering spacecraft, loaded with a large number of tools and modular factories, and began to land on the asteroid and lay factories.

These are truly unmanned factories, where there are no roads for people to walk, and a huge amount of mining equipment is crowded into a pile, making full use of all the space.

Then the factory's mining equipment began to release a super-strong magnetic field, so the ground softened like a liquid, and a large amount of minerals were mined, and then transported to the engineering spacecraft by robots.

"Marshal Say, although magnetic field mining technology has only been developed in recent years, asteroid mining is already a very mature technology for humans."

"Compared with traditional laser mining technology, modern mining technology combines laser and strong magnetic field, the mining efficiency is much higher than in the past, and the efficiency of human resource development has been greatly improved."

"There are also spaceships. At present, with the advancement of planetary engine technology, we can manufacture super spaceships with a larger tonnage," the chief engineer said.

....
After learning about modern industrial technology, Say held a meeting and proposed to build the No. 3 planets belonging to the solar system fleet, that is, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.

"Everyone, with the lifting of the three-body civilization's blockade of our science, our basic science will definitely lead to progress in the future, so it is a high probability to develop more worlds through quantum bodies."

"Therefore, we have to gradually master the ability to develop barren planets at a high speed, and quickly build them into human industry and resource bases, and then feed back the entire human civilization." Say took the lead.

"We have already planned the Mars economic circle, the Jupiter economic circle and the Saturn economic circle concept. According to the plan, the population of these three economic circles is about 3 billion. After completion, they will become important energy bases for the solar system fleet."

"However, due to the infrastructure and industrial constraints of the 3rd world, the construction process is expected to take about half a century to complete the initial progress, and a century to complete the construction." The President of the Solar System reported.

"There is nothing to say about the Mars development project. Regarding the distance between Jupiter and Saturn and the fact that the infrastructure is zero, I suggest a more efficient way to develop it." Say shook his head.

"Do you have any suggestions?" asked the President of the Solar System Fleet.

"I suggest that the solar system fleet should build a colony ship that has strong industrial capabilities and can carry a large number of people. It can be said that the spacecraft itself is a multifunctional space city."

"In this way, the initial immigrants do not need to build various factories from scratch, and can directly use the factories and mining equipment of the colonial ship to develop Jupiter's resources and expand on a larger scale."

"Considering that this is a voyage in the star system, the colony ship does not need to be very fast, it only needs to be about one thousandth of the speed of light."

"The first goal of all colony ships is Jupiter, and when the Jupiter economic circle is initially built and there is no need to rely on the internal factories of the colony ships, all colony ships are responsible for exploring Saturn."

"Of course, if the other two fleets need our "help", we can let the colony ships develop Neptune and Uranus after completing the construction of the Jupiter economic circle and the Saturn economic circle."

The fundamental purpose of Say’s proposal is actually to prepare for interstellar colonization, so that after humans develop light-speed spacecraft, they can develop other star systems more efficiently.

And everyone understood at once, because humans in World 3 have never developed Jupiter, so there are no space factories and other facilities there.

If you just bring engineering spaceships there, the army can only open up wasteland in the early stage, first establish the most basic industries, and then gradually send immigrants to build the Jupiter industrial system little by little.

And Jupiter and Saturn are too far away from the earth, and it takes several weeks to go back and forth from the earth. Whether it is transporting materials, equipment or people, it is too time-consuming.

As for the ancient times in the main world, human beings used Mars and the asteroid belt industrial system as a springboard to develop Jupiter from the asteroid belt.

But the problem is that in World 3, Mars and the asteroid belt are also undeveloped areas. If you want to use them as a springboard, you have to wait decades.

But to build a colony ship with strong industrial production capacity and directly move a large number of factories to Jupiter, the development work will be much simpler.

"Marshal Say, do you have any indicator requirements for the colony ship?" asked the Chief Engineer of the Solar System Fleet.

"Yes, the habitable population carried by a colony ship cannot be less than 1000 million people, and the tonnage should not be less than one billion tons. Of course, the living environment does not need to be considered. Anyway, the immigrants in World 2 are not that picky."

"As for the colony ship, in addition to having the ability to manufacture industrial products, it must also store a large amount of industrial resources and fusion fuel to facilitate the rapid construction of an industrial system on Jupiter."

"The best colony ship should have the ability to quickly manufacture space buildings, such as gaseous planet mining platforms and industrial space cities, as well as the ability to manufacture all basic industrial products and nanomaterials."

"I understand. You expect to build a super industrial fleet to develop Jupiter. This will be the largest industrial fleet in the history of human civilization." The chief engineer of the solar system said.

"It would be even better if it was an industrial fleet. In addition to the colony ships, an industrial fleet can also be equipped with various supply ships, mining ships, engineering ships and other ships to assist the colony ships in developing Jupiter."

"After all, developing a new world is a systematic work. A single colonial ship may not be able to complete all the work. A systematic colonial fleet can shoulder this mission."
