Homo sapiens

Chapter 557 Journey (2)

The first piece of equipment that Dimash and the three men put together was the tool cabin.

In fact, the tool cabin is similar to the excavation and transportation equipment at the Copernicus Base on the Moon. It can dig tunnels and transport some assembled cabins.

A lot of the equipment is modular, so it's as easy to assemble as building blocks.

Soon the jointing work of the Digger-Tool Cabin was completed.

"Wang, you are responsible for the excavation work."

"OK."

Like a millipede digger, it crawled towards a low-lying sandy area not far away.

The power system of the Digger is very special, since it is not a nuclear battery or a solar panel, but a magnetic monopole crystal.

That's right, it's a magnetic monopole crystal.

Magnetic monopole crystals possess another property, which is the ability to transmit electrical energy over long distances.

Therefore, part of the power supply system of the Digger is a wireless power supply system made of magnetic monopole crystals, and the other part is a backup emergency chemical battery.

In this way, the Digger can draw directly from the backup nuclear battery on the Spark ship.

Wang Shu controlled the Digger and dug trenches on the ground.

In less than half an hour, a large pit with a depth of 8 meters and a length of 20 meters was dug.

However, during the excavation process, Wang Shu discovered a new situation, which was the water content of the sand.

In the sandy soil layer 1 to 2 meters above the ground, the water content of the sand is very little, but as the excavation depth increases, the water content in the soil increases slightly.

This situation shows that there is groundwater underground on Mars.

In fact, this situation is very normal. The Mars Geological Remote Sensing Satellite of the Space Division has long ago discovered through magnetic field detectors that there is a lot of groundwater underground on Mars.

Of course, even if there is abundant underground water on Mars, the Homo sapiens company will most likely not exploit it in large quantities.

After all, the total amount of water resources on Mars is too small, especially shallow groundwater, which is even more pitiful.

To mine groundwater on Mars, it would be better to send a spacecraft to the asteroid belt to pull in a few water-bearing asteroids.

Unless there is an emergency, the Space Division does not plan to exploit Martian groundwater on a large scale in the short term.

Wang Shu was digging a tunnel, while Dimash opened an exclusive Mars live broadcast room to the earth through the communication system.

Through this live broadcast room, Dimash broadcasts the daily life of aliens to the Homo Sapiens Company and the entire free world.

In front of the camera in the live broadcast room.

Dimash, who was wearing a robot body, used electronic synthesized sounds to introduce the situation of the Mars base to the audience in order to avoid leaking secrets.

"Hello, dear audience friends, I am the robot 0074 of the Homo sapiens company stationed on Mars. Now I will introduce to you the situation of Mars and the Mars base..."

Dimash's electronically synthesized sound is very stiff, and combined with the gray dust background behind it, it's hard to understand the environment.

Ordinary people in the free world thought this was a studio in a desert.

However, employees within the Homo sapiens company are quite sure that the company's spacecraft has landed on Mars.

After all, Homo Sapiens Company has created too many miracles, and its employees already have a kind of blind self-confidence. They believe in the company very much.

Compared to ordinary people in the free world, the four major forces in the free world knew that the Homo sapiens company's spacecraft had successfully landed on the Utopia Plain through scientific research satellites placed in orbit around Mars.

However, the four major forces will naturally not help the Homo sapiens company to promote it.

Regarding the huge investment of the Homo sapiens company in the aerospace field, the entire free world can only be described as envy and jealousy.

Dimash broadcast live for more than half an hour and ended today's live broadcast.

The fifth hour after landing on Mars.

Dimash, Wang Shu and others quickly went offline to take a vacation.

But the robot did not stop working, because another group of staff took over the task of controlling the robot.

After all, the service life of the magnetic monopole crystal is only more than 7 years. Time is very precious. Naturally, people are working in four shifts around the clock.

In order to ensure that staff will not be confused day and night, the Space Division has also specifically taken advantage of the time differences among its branches to set up five specialized remote control centers in South America, the Pacific, Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Africa.

The Homo sapiens company is a force that never sets around the equator.

Taking advantage of the time difference between different places, it just guarantees six hours of working time for employees, and can fully implement four shifts without the trouble of jet lag.

In terms of humanization, Homo sapiens is definitely the number one company in the world.

The newly online staff controlled the robot and continued the work of the previous team.

The Utopia Station rose up from the sandstorm at a speed visible to the naked eye, becoming the first base of human civilization on Mars.

Dust storms on Mars are still raging.

In various cabins buried underground, many functions have begun to work. For example, the nuclear power cabin, which is the core of power supply, continuously delivers electricity to other cabins.

Relying on nuclear batteries, the experimental cabin of the base is conducting relevant scientific research. Although there are no humans, the robots can be controlled through the communicator of the magnetic monopole crystal, which is actually similar to the work of humans here.

In addition to scientific research work in the experimental cabin.

The other two tool bays also store many field exploration robots.

These field exploration robots are not humanoid, but various special-shaped robots, including: vacuum airship robots, multi-legged all-terrain robots, and crawler robots.

Among them, the airship robot has not been launched recently due to weather conditions.

On the other hand, many crawler robots and multi-legged robots have been dispatched.

These crawler robots and multi-legged robots use Utopia Station as their base point and slowly explore in all directions.

The staff who operate these robots also control the robots from the Earth headquarters through magnetic monopole crystals.

Moreover, these robots also use magnetic monopole crystals as wireless chargers, reducing the disadvantages of carrying solar panels and large lithium and nuclear batteries.

With magnetic monopole crystal wireless chargers, these robots can work in the field for long periods of time.

The mission of the exploration robot is very simple, which is to scout the surrounding terrain and collect surrounding soil samples.

For Mars, Homo sapiens company is actually very interested.

After all, according to the current theory of the birth of life in the solar system mastered by the Homo sapiens company, amino acid structures are common in asteroids and comets, and amino acids happen to be one of the basic components of biological cells.

The scientific researchers of Homo Sapien Company have reason to believe that life exists to a greater or lesser extent on every planet in the solar system, but it is not as obvious and huge as that on Earth.

For example, there are several types of single-cell organisms even in the underground aquifer of the moon, not to mention Mars, which is often visited by asteroids.

Therefore, one of the current tasks of the exploration robot is to look for traces of life on Mars and look at the traces and evidence of life on Mars in ancient times.

However, it is a bit difficult to find traces of life in Utopia Plains.

After all, Utopia Plain is located in the northern hemisphere of Mars. It is covered by sandstorms all year round. Over the years, sandstorms have deposited a large amount of sand on the ground.

If you want to find evidence of the existence of ancient creatures on Mars, you definitely can't look for it here. Instead, you have to look for the grand canyons and mountains and hills. Only then can there be traces of ancient creatures that are not covered by wind and sand.
