Even so, many people still believe in the natural existence of silicon-based organisms, because humans are impossible and omnipotent. Among various science fiction novels, silicon-based life is so popular that it is so popular that people urgently Want to discover them.

Maybe a so-called miracle was born in a certain planet?

Faced with this kind of argument, those who have something good even wrote a long article to refute this point of view.

The connection ability of silicon is quite bad. The silicon number of silane can only reach 8 and is unstable. The impossible material of the composition is too complicated; the thermal stability of silane and its derivatives are poor and easy to condense, which is undoubtedly different from silicon. The high temperature environment required by basic life is contrary;

There is also the silicon-hydrogen bond and silicon-silicon bond are easily destroyed by various protic solvents, which means common water, ammonia and even hydrogen fluoride Solvents can’t be used as carriers of silicon-based life, and so on...

Shu Xiao seriously said: “Actually, I don’t believe in natural silicon-based organisms. Artificial life, on the contrary, boron-based life with boron as the core is more likely! Hey, the difficulty of creating a life is really comparable to the creator, we are far from this aspect!"

The more mankind knows about the universe, the more certain options can be ruled out.

Leave aside this speculation. All in all, people have great expectations for the complex life of this planet.

The vigorous and grand design is continuing, anyway, it is about to reach the destination, and resources can be supplemented in a few years, and various high-performance materials are smashed without money. There is a small centrifugal wheel inside the Kunlun Mountains, which can simulate a high-gravity environment with high-speed rotation. Facts have proved that no matter how difficult it is, it is easy to produce a breakthrough as long as it uses massive resources to smash it.

When Zhang Yuan saw this list of needed supplies, he was stunned. He looked at the aggressive scientists in front of him and couldn't help swallowing.

"You mean, the current budget is enough to build a falcon-class destroyer?"

This scientist is not embarrassed, he is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, lion's big mouth said : "Your Captain, the exploration under high gravity environment is an area that humans have never explored. So far, there are not many areas that humans have not explored. The rest are big fish that no one can catch. This is A rare piece of fish that can be gnawed..."

"Anyway, everyone doesn't have a good research direction...Even just a small fish is not bad."

Zhang Yuan slightly nodded, what people are better at at present is the industrial system under low gravity environment. Especially in heavy industry, low gravity is better than high gravity environment by many times.

"Do you mean not only making a few robots, but also a whole set of industrial systems that operate in a high-gravity environment?"

"Yes, indeed. …Although this system is theoretically impossible to compare to a low-gravity environment, there may be any special inspiration? It is always good to be able to develop more science."

Zhang Yuan sighed in his heart. With a sigh of relief, the current progress of scientific development is too slow, and there has been no major progress in several decades. So that the scientists began to pick up the things that were abandoned in the past and plan to do it again. The whole process is actually very painful.

It sounds like nothing to do, but just like the abandoned biochip technology, if you don’t practice it, who knows that it will have so much potential?

There are a lot of things that can’t be imagined by imagination alone. Only through practice can we know the mystery, the breakthrough point of the entire civilization, maybe it lies in these abandoned things. ?

He nodded: "Well, I still support it for the time being... But this resolution needs to be demonstrated by the scientific conference. Anyway, it is just some resources. What is too big about It shouldn't be? Question."

The scientist was relieved, "We have also applied for two interstellar ramjets to be installed on our scientific research spaceship."

Zhang Yuan eyebrows raised, this The guy is still unsatisfied!

He was not angry, but looked at each other meaningfully. If he can give a qualified reason, it is not impossible: "That is a military engine...the yield rate is very low, and it is often manufactured. Only one qualified product can be used as a military reserve."

"This is the case...With the advancement of technology, the cost of ramjet engines will gradually decrease. It is better to take advantage of this. Opportunity, to test the performance on a civilian spaceship. In this planet, although ordinary nuclear fusion engines are sufficient, but what about the higher gravity planet? Since the ramjet has to be installed in the transport aircraft sooner or later, it is not as early as early."

"Is that so... it sounds reasonable." Zhang Yuan frowns thought. This young scientist is really good at talking.

……

That's it, three years of preparation time passed quickly, and the Kunlun Mountains fleet has gradually approached its destination.

According to the traditional conservative policy, in order to strictly ensure the safety of the mothership, people will choose a peripheral planet similar to the Nether King Star in the solar system as the landing point.

In this way, in case there is a powerful civilization here, the entire fleet can also communicate with it calmly. No matter how bad it is, you can leave directly, and there will be no positive conflicts.

And generally speaking, planets without atmosphere are more suitable for mining minerals.

The observatory is always the most lively area. After spaceship has chosen the landing location, scientists are closely observing the specific movements of "Tepstar".

The first man-made exploration satellite has also been launched in advance.

Yes, this super Earth, which may have life, has been officially named-"Teppstar", instead of just a code name as it used to be.

There are three satellites around it, one of which is 88% of the mass of the moon, and is about 360,000 kilometers away from Tepu.

The other one is smaller, with a mass of 7.5% of the moon.

The third one is a large meteorite with a diameter of 20 kilometers. It is not a real satellite. It revolves in a large outer circle. There should be no risk of collision for a while. .

The mass of the Tepp star is much larger than that of Earth. It has many satellites, but it’s nothing. Like Jupiter and Saturn in the solar system, there are at least seventy-eighty satellites, and a small fire star. There are also two A natural satellite. As long as the mass difference between these satellites and the surrounding planets is relatively large, the so-called "three-body motion" will not form.

And after these days of observation, people did not observe the traces of artificial satellites above the atmosphere of "Tap Star".

This news also made all scientists sighed in relief, but at the same time, they felt a little regretful and couldn't tell what the psychology was.

"The absence of artificial satellites does not necessarily mean that there is no intelligent civilization, because the gravity and air pressure of this planet are all too large, making it extremely difficult to launch satellites. Even we have to rely on interstellar ramjet technology , We can barely carry out aerospace activities."

"It is said...Our exploration satellite should be in orbit soon!"

"Yes, very The first-hand data will be returned soon!"

Everyone was very curious about the first data. Although it was time for work, everyone was still quiet in front of the big screen in the astronomical observation room. Waiting.
