Interstellar Industrial Age

v2 Chapter 396: , The biggest discovery of the century

On the other side, Liu Daoming and Li Jingxuan are searching for traces of life in Mars' North Pole. On the other hand, in the southern hemisphere of Mars, scientists, engineers and astronauts are also busy.

The northern hemisphere of Mars is a very young plain, and the vast plain is endless. However, in the southern hemisphere of Mars, it is a highland with a very ancient history. Of course, this so-called highland is also relative to the plains of the northern hemisphere.

In a flat open area with an altitude of more than 4,000 meters, the altitude of Mars is not the same as the altitude of the earth. The altitude of the earth is calculated at sea level. Because Mars does not have much water, it naturally does not. It is naturally impossible to calculate the sea level based on the ocean.

So the altitude above Mars is calculated based on the deepest part of Mars's largest sailor canyon. The altitude of more than 4,000 meters sounds high.

But we need to know that the deepest Mariana Trench on the earth is tens of thousands of meters deep. If we use this as a starting point, we will be at an altitude of 10,000 meters.

Between the sky, several spaceships descended from the sky to this barren world.

Engineering vehicles drove out of the spacecraft, while scientists, engineers, and astronauts stepped on the land of Mars in space suits.

"What a desolate world!"

Long Zhankong stepped on the land of Mars, looking at the desolate sight in front of him can not help feeling.

The surface of Mars is very weathered, with large and small gravels, accompanied by gusts of sand and dust. The visibility is not high. The sand here is different from the desert above the earth. Everywhere on Mars Sand piles are actually formed by the weathering of a large stone over a long period of time, and there are large and small rocks with sharp edges and corners.

"Starting work ~"

With a loud sound, the astronauts and engineers began to get busy, driving engineers to build the Mars base.

Scientists are planning to build a permanent Mars base here. Of course, this base is definitely an unmanned base at present. Mars is still a little far from Earth, and it is not easy to go back and forth once.

Until resources of great value are not found, it is obviously impossible to build a regular round trip with great cost.

In addition, the distance between Mars and Earth is constantly changing, and the closest is okay. Once it is farthest away, the supply of materials and replacement of personnel will be difficult to achieve through a sun.

Unless a particularly valuable resource is found on Mars, it will be possible to establish a populated Martian base, driven by commercial forces.

The construction of the unmanned base is also for the long-term exploration of Mars, to study the climate of Mars, to find Mars resources, and to prepare for the next development of Mars in the future.

Because there is a lot of experience in building a lunar base on the moon, it is naturally very simple to build a Mars base now, let alone a scientist or engineer on the side of the Galaxy Technology Group to build it. On the earth side, there are even special bases. s company.

These companies have developed a variety of bases. As long as customers have needs, they can achieve them. As long as they can afford the money, everything is not a problem, the speed is fast, and the bases are very safe and reliable.

An engineering vehicle pushed gravel, sand, etc. away from the area of ​​the platform, sorted out a large flat area, and then started piling to fix the base.

Just over an hour later, a large Mars base soon appeared on the surface of Mars, and at the same time, a bright red flag began to rise on a high flagpole, and this scene was naturally recorded. It can also be used as evidence when fighting for Mars sovereignty in the future.

As cosmic astronomy scientists, Long Zhankong and Huang Zhibin also drove engineering vehicles and began to continuously walk on the surface of Mars, preparing to find some ancient meteorites, rocks and the like, and collecting the deep soil and rocks of Mars for research The history of Mars, even the history of the solar system.

On the other side, Mars's North Pole.

The precious samples from the bottom of the ice are constantly being collected. Both Liu Daoming and Li Jingxuan can't wait any longer. I can't wait to return to the ‘Kwafu’ spacecraft immediately to analyze these samples.

"Return to the spacecraft immediately and return to space as soon as possible!"

When the last sample was collected, Liu Daoming also had no hesitation, and quickly ordered the spacecraft to take off and return to space.

Ten minutes later, the spacecraft returned to the ‘Kwafak’ spacecraft very smoothly, and the collected samples were sent to the scientists ’labs as soon as possible.

"There is absolutely extraterrestrial life here! Please see that the closer the amino acid is to the deeper, the more it is, which shows that the amino acid comes from the inside, not the outside, and the amino acid has only one source, which is the microorganism."

"The survival ability of the microorganisms is extremely tenacious. The most powerful water bear can survive for several days at minus 200 degrees, it can survive for a long time in the high temperature of more than 100 degrees, and it can also be good under the radiation environment of more than 5000 Gray intensity. To survive, you need to know that 10-20 Gray intensity radiation can easily kill humans and most animals on the planet. "

Li Jingxuan was analyzing the samples with excitement. At the same time, because of the excitement, the whole person was a bit inaccurate when speaking. The abnormal excitement of the entire person was originally analyzed slowly according to the sampling depth. He directly took the bottom sample. Magnify under the microscope.

"Oh my God! There are really living things, and there are so many of them, these microbes already have a cell structure, but this structure is a bit strange."

"A large number of microbiomes have been discovered. This is a complete tribe of microbes. The largest is a multi-cellular complex of 0.1 mm in size."

"The discovery that shocked the world is that most of these organisms are fungi, a small number of bacteria, and a very small number of multicellular life. This is a slowly evolving world!"

This news instantly stunned the entire "Kwafak" spacecraft and the control center far away from the earth. The major discovery on Mars means that the universe is full of life, and humans and the earth are not alone. Where there is water in the universe, it is very There may be births.

You must know that there is liquid water under the ice layer of 100 meters thick on Mars. There is actually extraterrestrial life among these liquid waters. This is definitely one of the most important discoveries of this century!

"There are actually living things on Mars. Although these living things are very simple, they are life, which means that life is not limited to the earth, and it is likely to exist widely in every corner of the universe."

"In other galaxies other than the solar system, on some planets that are very close to the earth, maybe there are intelligent creatures like our human beings, but just because the universe is too vast, we have not encountered each other so far. been."

On the earth's side, the scientists at the Xinghe Academy of Science are all crazy. There is really life outside the earth. Naturally, everyone knows that there must be many, many high-level intelligent lives in the universe.

In the past, I thought that I was the only life in the universe. That was because no extra-terrestrial life was found. Of course, it was also because humans were always confined to the earth. The farthest place was just a trip to the moon. For The universe knows too little about life.

"Announce the news to the world."

Qin Yi thought and asked, and it is also time to let people in the global world know about extraterrestrial life. It is natural to meet aliens in the future.

Soon, the Xinghe Academy of Sciences and the Huaxia Scientists Institute formally held a press conference to officially announce to the world that the 'Kwafak' spacecraft had discovered extraterrestrial life on Mars, and at the same time the extraterrestrial life found on Mars Photos and videos play out.

"Longevity ~ Aliens ~"

"It's finished ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ The end of the world, there are really aliens, they are going to invade the earth ~"

"The Kuafu spacecraft has discovered Martians on Mars expeditions."

As soon as the news came out, the whole world was in panic. If ordinary people understood it literally, they thought that Martians had been found on Mars, and thought that the Martians would attack the earth. Extraterrestrial life sounds very advanced. , But in fact, only some fungi, bacteria and other things found on Mars.

But soon, experts and scholars came forward to explain to you one of the most important discoveries of this century, telling you not to be afraid at all. Although it is extraterrestrial life, it is all things like fungi and bacteria. There is no threat. Do n’t worry, it ’s not Martians or anything.

Ordinary people's emotions are soon soothed, and everyone quickly understands the true appearance of life outside this region, so naturally they will not panic.

As for the scientific community, scientists on Earth have all become silent, and extraterrestrial life has been discovered on Mars. What this means is clear.

This means that life should be very common in the universe. It also means that there must be high-level intelligent creatures like humans in the universe. It also means that some civilizations must have a higher level of development than the earth.

It also means that once human beings truly enter the vast interstellar universe and get along with the numerous civilizations and races in the universe, the fate of humankind is unknown.

Can it become a colonizer, a predator, at the top of the food chain, or an object of exploitation, slavery, and colonization?

All this is obviously difficult to say, but one thing is certain: the truth is only within the range of the cannon!

PS: It's almost time to go out ~~
