In the blink of an eye, two months have passed...

On November 17, the first batch of virus vaccines was finally successfully developed, marking the complete victory of humans over the Martian virus!

Scientists have found that some inactivated viruses, after special treatment, can produce a small amount of immunity.A small amount of immunity is enough.

Bioscientists are still very interested in these Martian life, and they believe that these Martian microorganisms are a kind of creature between viruses and bacteria, refreshing people's views on life and bringing new scientific ideas.Their research continues.

Of course, the rest of the world is not idle during this time, and the new human government has begun to develop various plans, and the geological exploration of various groups is still in progress.

The good news continues to come, people in the Mars Arctic not only found super large uranium ore, but also found iron ore, aluminum, copper, titanium ore and other important resources, these are also open-pit mineral sources, mining is very convenient.

I have to say, Mars, is a rich planet, human beings have come to the right place!

“You know, the official report of the geological survey is finally out.That super-large uranium ore, the reserves even reached 1.06 million tons!And the quality is excellent, basically 0.5% to 1% of the rich ore, the highest uranium content is even more than 2%.”

Several scientists were sitting together discussing, from time to time, burst into a whim, and they were lamented by the richness of Mars.

“This time, it’s really big!It's a good plan for the government."

Many people's eyes revealed a feverish excitement, and their hearts began to move.

This is an extreme yearning for a strong industry, and after several crises, all are eager for the whole civilization to be stronger and more prosperous.

“I have heard that the new government is building large nuclear power units in batches, and as long as the nuclear power units are built, everything can be started.”

“Yes, electricity is very important.This time, we want to increase the power generation of nuclear energy to 30 million kilowatts, which is three times the previous!"

30 million kilowatts, such electricity power, has been compared to the entire city, you know that it is a city with a population of 10 million!

Speaking of this, scientists can't help but feel a little sad and a little proud that these big plans are being developed, and they are also involved in part of it.

Such ambition is not only Yifeng, but also theirs, and even the entire new human civilization!

On the USS Noah, although it is only 50,000 people, the electricity consumption is very large, because it is necessary to maintain the entire industrial system and ecosystem of the ship.

When the lunar base was established, it was designed according to the standard of partial self-sufficiency, and many things can be produced by daily necessities.

For example, things such as plastics are synthesized from inorganic materials such as methane, such as paper, face towels, etc., and are basically made of special plastics, and the feel is similar to real paper.

These things can also be recycled and reused.

The industrial factories on the moon have basically moved to Noah.These basic industries, coupled with the necessary various life-saving systems on Noah, usually have a power of about 200-4 million kilowatts (not a heavy industry).

The original power system, the largest power of about 11 million kilowatts, nuclear power accounted for 70-80%, can be said to be completely enough.

But now, if the new government wants to expand production, then this power load is a little embarrassed.Especially the smelting of various metals, the production of various mechanical equipment, requires a large amount of electricity.The original 11 million kilowatts of electricity load is not enough, we must expand the nuclear power plant.

Not to mention, because the emergence of the Mars virus and the discovery of ultra-large uranium mines and a large number of metal deposits, many plans need to be re-engineered, and the contents of which are very complex.

Noah, the captain's room.

At this moment, Yifeng is looking at a report, is a detailed geological report within 100,000 square kilometers of the north pole of Mars, after two months, finally completed!

There are a variety of mineral resources written on it, this rich planet, which has never been developed, is really very attractive.

"0.66 million tons of uranium reserves?"Was there something wrong?”Seeing this number, Yu Yifeng's eyebrows jumped, and asked with some doubts.

According to the experience of the earth, tens of thousands of tons of uranium ore has been good, suddenly a 1.06 million tons, is it too amazing?

"Of course, Mr. Yu, we have been sure many times!"In fact, we can't believe it... but in fact, this is still the result of conservative estimates, and it will only be more and less!"

Answering him was a young geologist named Dimo, originally an Indian, and now a member of the new human race.

Dimo said in an avid tone: "This large uranium mine, we suspect is caused by the unique geological movement of Mars ... in the earth of Australia, although there is such a rich uranium resource reserve, but the abundance is far less than this large mine, it can be said that a mine is worth a country!" 」

“If we had all these uranium mines, we would have access to 1.06 million tons of uranium!”At 7:2 a.m., we get 7,600 tons of uranium-235!”

"7,600 tons, what is this concept, Mr. Yu you know!"Enough for hundreds of years!Hundreds of years!”

Dimo’s eyes were red and he shouted wildly, and he was very emotional, as if they would run away without mining...

A geologist wants to go mining, can you believe it?

Yu Yifeng laughed bitterly, these scientists only pay attention to their own fields, once crazy, they don't care about anything.

And during this period, this fever has become more and more popular, and even spread to the general public.

“It should be a passion, it should be a good thing.”

Yu Yifeng is not hesitant, immediately pick up the pen to calculate, this high school level of physical problems is not too difficult.

Uranium, atomic number 92, element symboluity u, is the main material for nuclear fission, can be used to generate electricity, can also make atomic bombs.

Uranium-238 is difficult for humans to use, its content is greater than 99.2%, the real use of uranium-235, only 72% of the total.

When a uranium nucleus fissions, an average of 200mev of nuclear energy is released.Nuclear power plants with a power generation capacity of 30 million kW, assuming a conversion rate of 40%, then ... only 79.05 kg of uranium-235 per day for nuclear fuel.

Only 79.05 kg of nuclear fuel a day!

In other words, Noah only needs about 29 tons of uranium-235 a year to meet the power demand.

7,600 tons of uranium-235 is enough for humans to use 262 years!

For more than two hundred years, what a long time, Yu Yifeng can't help but feel the power of nuclear energy.

If humans can develop more advanced "fast neutron value-added reactors", then the largest million tons of uranium-238, which accounts for the vast majority, will also be used, and humans will not need to worry about energy for thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years.

Counting here, Yu Yifeng's heart also began to heat up, got up and said: "Mr. Dymo, you can rest assured!"The development of uranium resources will definitely be a top priority!”

It was hard to send Dimo away, and Yu Yifeng jumped excitedly, and the new human does not need to worry about energy!What a great thing, please.

On Earth, people's main energy is still fossil energy, and other solar energy, nuclear energy, wind energy, water and so on, but to Mars, where what oil and coal, the only reliance is nuclear energy.Solar energy is only a small amount.

Although people have brought a lot of uranium ore from the moon, but the total amount is not large, even if the save money, it will be enough for more than ten years, if the power of the nuclear power plant is fully open, three or four years will be used up.

This sense of crisis has always been felt in people’s hearts.Just because in recent times, people are facing too many crises, this future energy crisis is not very urgent, but faded.

But it still exists, and if it is not dealt with, it will become more and more dangerous.

Well, human beings have directly received more than two hundred years of energy share, which feels like a person who dies of heat in the summer suddenly gets an ice pop... No, it is an ice warehouse ice pop, suddenly bursting!

Yu Yifeng finally understood why these people are so fanatical, in the face of this gift, do not dig really a little can not help ah.
