Vol 3 Chapter 270 Warming Mars

However, the space city may be the future of mankind, but it is also not to Yang Qing’s taste.

What he longs for is a land that can move freely, not a cold space castle.

Although Venus is most similar to Blue Star, its thick atmosphere hinders human’s development of it.

Cooling Venus is easy, just add a few giant parasols to it, but that doesn’t solve the fundamental problem.

In fact, because of the cloud layer in the atmosphere of Venus, a large part of the sunlight shining on Venus is directly reflected. Although it is farther away from the sun than the blue star, it absorbs no more light than the blue star.

Being able to have a much thicker atmosphere than the Blue Star with the same mass as the Blue Star, especially without the protection of the inner magnetic field, the atmosphere is blown by the solar wind all the time, which means that there must be a violent atmosphere inside it. Geological activity, which releases a huge amount of gas, as a supplement to the atmosphere.

So even if all the sunlight is covered, it is still unknown when Venus will cool down and reach a habitable level. This time may be calculated in thousands of years.

After all, a huge object with a diameter of more than 10,000 kilometers is like a red-hot iron ball, and it is too difficult to cool it down.

Venus has nothing to do for the time being, so there is only one target left in the inner solar system, and that is Mars.

But Mars also has its shortcomings, the most important one is that it is too small.

The diameter of Mars is only half of the blue star, 15% of the volume, 11% of the mass, and the surface gravity is 2.5 times that of the moon, which is 2/5 of the blue star.

Although it has an atmosphere, the air pressure at the bottom of the atmosphere is only one percent of that of the blue star. Even if the ratio of oxygen in the air is right, humans cannot survive on it.

You must know that even on Mount Everest, which is close to a height of 9,000 meters, the air pressure is only 30% of sea level, and most people have to rely on oxygen cylinders to survive, let alone the surface of Mars.

Therefore, it is still a long way to go to improve Mars to be like Blue Star.

There are two primary tasks for transforming Mars. One is to increase the temperature and add a few large umbrellas to Mars to reflect sunlight.

As long as Mars receives one percent more sunlight, its overall temperature can increase to almost fifty degrees.

At that time, the maximum temperature near the Martian equator will exceed 30 degrees, and because Mars lacks moisture, the surface temperature is likely to reach 70 or 80 degrees.

Such a large umbrella is also a solar panel. Several or dozens of arrays with a diameter of at least more than 100 kilometers are pieced together in space. While using solar power to generate aura, while using reflected light to shine on Mars heat up.

The specific operation naturally depends on the heating effect, but these are actually some mature technologies, the only thing is that too many solar panels are needed, and a lot of brackets are needed to install them at a certain angle, so use There is a lot of material, the launch task is heavy, and it has to be assembled in space, which requires high technical requirements for workers.

But now there is no working medium propulsion technology, and a large number of robots under the control of Xiao Ai. Compared with any astronauts, they are more suitable for working in a gravity-free environment, and they carry various tools with them at any time. Capable of drilling, laser welding, bolting and more.

In fact, such a platform composed of solar panels is likely to expand in the future and become space castles one by one.

Such a castle is quite large. After all, even a city of more than 100 kilometers on the Blue Star is considered a big city.

And on these platforms, there are several large rune arrays, which not only increase the gravity of Mars, but also have a defensive effect.

Human beings have fully adapted to the gravity of the blue star in the environment of the blue star, so if they suddenly switch to other places, it is inevitable that various diseases will be caused by the change of gravity. In the weightless space station, after a long time, it will appear All kinds of space diseases will naturally appear in other places where the gravity is insufficient, but they will persist for a longer time.

Yang Qing applied the pressure symbol array in the fusion reaction, which is to increase the pressure on the core position from the outside, so as to promote the fusion reaction.

Although with the volume of Mars, it is almost impossible to pressurize it to the pressure of the fusion reactor, but Yang Qing does not need such a large pressure, a standard blue star gravity is enough.

At the same time, because of the weakness of the Martian magnetic field, these platforms have to take on the task of establishing an electromagnetic field, so that the hard-working atmosphere will not be blown away by the solar wind.

Of course, these are all carried out outside Mars. If we really want to colonize Mars, we need to do more work.

The next step is to add weight to Mars.

As a planet, Mars is the second smallest planet in the solar system, only slightly larger than Mercury, and its mass is similar to Mercury, so increasing its weight can not only increase its gravity, but also effectively reduce the pressure on the extraterrestrial platform energy consumption.

And just between the orbits of Jupiter and Mars, there is an asteroid belt, where there are countless small stars, including several dwarf planets that are only smaller than the moon, such as Ceres and Vesta.

Even if this kind of dwarf planet is Yang Qing, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com can’t do anything for the time being, dragging them will consume incalculable energy.

What’s more, such mature stars generally have a relatively fragile core and rotation, so it is difficult to install suitable propellers for them.

You can’t get them a few planetary engines like the wandering earth, right?

However, apart from these dwarf planets, there are also a large number of asteroids in the asteroid belt, ranging from a few kilometers to hundreds of kilometers, and they are Yang Qing’s goals.

Yang Qing plans to use a few years to push these asteroids out of the asteroid belt, and then collide with Mars, so as to use their size and kinetic energy to re-ignite the core of Mars and make Mars heat up rapidly.

Of course, it is definitely impossible for an asteroid with hundreds of kilometers to hit Mars directly. Such a huge object is likely to smash Mars directly.

They need to be divided into small pieces with a diameter of about ten kilometers.

Although such a small piece hits Mars, it is actually a kind of disaster, just like the asteroid that hit the Americas 65 million years ago. Its diameter was only a dozen kilometers, but it directly wiped out the dinosaurs. Let the entire Blue Star enter an ice age.

But there is no life on Mars, or no obvious large organisms, so for Mars, such an impact really doesn’t matter.
