On the road to deep space, human beings are still developing happily.
Due to the harsh living environment and low fertility rate in the past few years, after the development of the New Earth, human beings continued to live in a pleasant environment, and still maintained the original reproduction rhythm.
There were even in vitro fertilization babies, and the natural population growth rate was very high.
Back to the number 5 parts per thousand.
The crisis of population explosion threatens humanity again, but compared to the fact that they have to conquer so many star systems, the problem does not seem so serious.
Moreover, East Galaxy Company does need 10 times or 100 times the current population to support their war funds. .
Therefore, after entering the 22nd century, East Galaxy Company has not proactively promulgated many policies.
Relying on the economic means of the mayors of various cities, it can still be seen that human power is naturally expanding, both in terms of population and economy. soared to impressive numbers.
During this period of time, Cao Chuan did two things.
One of them was the cantilever exploration plan.
On the surface, it was to find the economic flash point after the deep space road, but in fact, it was to find their new second base.
They will first send out 200 third-generation unmanned spacecraft to explore the star system within 100 light-years from the center of the solar system.
This work will be concluded within 50 years; secondly, they will explore the Orion cantilever within 1,000 light-years. section to explore, this section If the work is maintained at 20 times the speed of light, it will be completed before the arrival of the 23rd century; the last one is his true purpose, to cross the cantilever to go to the Centaur Cantilever and the Hercules Cantilever.
If he successfully finds the route and does not encounter the unknown, then the 25th century will end A conclusion will be drawn before. 200 spacecraft is a preliminary number, within the galaxy where the stars twinkle.
Where they are, there are more than 5,000 star systems within 100 light-years.
Even if they are observed at a distance of several light-years along the direction of the dark energy tide, there is no need to send personnel to personally enter the hinterland of the star system.
The number of 200 ships is still too large. few.
Cantilever exploration is planned.
The final number of spacecraft dispatched will exceed 2,000, which is a large project with an investment of 200 trillion.
Don't worry, the project will be divided into several decades to complete, and the annual investment is not as huge as imagined.
After discussion, East Galaxy Company announced their cantilever exploration plan, with the third-generation spacecraft at the front.
According to the current speed of the spacecraft, there is no longer a challenge to explore the universe 100 light-years away.
Not many people were surprised.
From the perspective of the cantilever exploration plan, there will be ways to further open up the foggy map, allowing them to increase the size of the visible world by 1,000 times, and from a distance of 20 light years to 100 light years, the types of stars in the universe that humans can access will double Increasingly, they will come into contact with neutron stars, pulsars, and nebulae that they have never come into contact with before.
Dark matter cloud, blue giant star.
Four-star structure and so on, logically speaking, it is still expected.
This is the scientific value.
In theory, several more stars of life will be discovered, and several deep space roads will be found, so the economic value will also be completed, like this.
The human world can accommodate a population of 100 billion, and the total economic volume can reach 1 trillion.
However, the level of attention paid to the cantilever exploration project is not as high as expected.
The reason is that the deep space road still has great benefits.
Before it is exhausted, why would humans go to farther places to develop in a time-consuming and laborious manner.
Only the official employees of Dongyinhe Company and the big guys who know the truth will continue to pay attention.
After announcing the plan, Planet 3, which had built a large number of shipyards, took on the production task and was placed in the sequence by Bai Lian.
Relying on the strong productivity of Planet 3, in 2201, Bai Lian completed the construction of Planet 3 in the eg000002 star system.
The first batch of 20 flying star spacecraft have been registered and docked at the airport in a unified arrangement.
"That's a few trillions.
If you give me these 20 spaceships, how many star systems can I open up?"
Several regular employees thought with envy.
Although they have their own spaceships, the problem is that it's just one spaceship and they can be used as private cars to travel around.
Running is quite convenient, but directly investing in planet development is a bit overwhelming.
"Don't worry.
After the cantilever exploration plan gets preliminary results, we will process the results through planetary calculations, and we will find at least hundreds of planets for us to explore.
When the time comes, you can do whatever you want."
"Mr.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Consultant, that's right."
Several regular employees couldn't hold back their impulses and began to lust.
Maybe after a few decades, when East Galaxy Company grows into a force with thousands of star systems, they will really have a chance.
Becoming the master of a planet is what they have been looking forward to since they joined Dongyinhe Company.
"Final confirmation" Cao Chuan saw that the time was coming and signaled the onlookers to pay attention.
His thought command was input into the spacecraft, and the artificial intelligence inside the spacecraft immediately received it.
Unless authorized, the command will never be released.
"Target, the universe with a radius of 100 light years with the solar system as the center."
Cao Chuan gave the order.
The specific direction of the spacecraft is uncertain.
If the dark energy tide is not found, the spacecraft will take hundreds of years to reach its destination.
Therefore, an exploration spacecraft must have the ability to make independent decisions and choose a route based on nearby "road conditions."
Anyway, the purpose is not to explore all the surrounding star systems.
With a radius of 100 light years, there are 5,000 star systems.
It takes one year to fly to each star system, which adds up to 5,000 years.
How can they have so much time.
Then, the spacecraft's reactor was activated, accelerated, and was about to take off.
Everyone's expressions became solemn, and those familiar with the matter wished the spacecraft to achieve the results they expected.
They believed that after so many attempts, a successful person would eventually find a way to the new world and find a safe and rich homeland for them.
Even if they are insiders, Cao Chuan only announced the information about the forces belonging to the King of the Mouth on the road to deep space.
If they knew the existence of the deep-diving mother form and even the shadow of Andromeda, they would not be so confident. of.
As for the truth, he still has to bear it himself for the time being.
He believes that one day, Dongyinhe will be qualified enough to bear the truth.
When the time comes, it will be more interesting to announce it.
As for those who don’t know, they view these spaceships with complete respect.
Without unmanned spaceships, humans have to rely on their bodies to explore planets one after another.
The efficiency and risks of this are undoubtedly huge, and no one knows how many people will die. on this path
