Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

In the scientific research center, there is a dedicated biological cloning research room.

This place was specially built when Chen Xin was researching wolf genetic improvement, and the biggest research result here is the great wolf dogs that played an important role in the previous Southwest earthquake.

They are all cultivated here.

However, after cultivating a sufficient population, these wolfdogs were transferred to other places for breeding and training. The research center here is only responsible for follow-up research, as well as the breeding and improvement of a small number of individuals.

So when Chen Xin came to this laboratory, most of the incubation chambers in the laboratory were empty, and only a few of them were hatching new embryos.

"Academician, why are you here?" Seeing Chen Xin's arrival, the working researcher hurriedly greeted him.

Chen Xin nodded his head as a response. Then he said, "Dome New City said that building an ecosystem requires animals to join the ecosystem, so we need to breed new animals here, so I'll come and take a look."

Hearing what Chen Xin said, the researchers nodded clearly: "The city-level ecosystem really cannot do without the participation of animals. When Professor Li was studying the ecological agriculture system before, he considered letting us cultivate a group of animals to participate. In the ecosystem.

But the result of the calculation at that time was that if the scale of the ecological agriculture system is not large enough, the number of animals is not only difficult to maintain, but also the cultivation of animals itself is very troublesome and the cost is high, so in the end I chose to use automatic machinery Or artificially maintain the ecological agriculture system.

If an urban-level ecosystem is built now, the participation of animals becomes necessary! "

Hearing what the researchers said, Chen Xin couldn't help but touch his chin, and asked him: "I understand the importance of animals in the ecosystem, but it's not impossible to have no animals, right?"

In Chen Xin's view, the scale of the dome city is not particularly large. Although it is necessary to build the largest artificial ecosystem in history, it has the research foundation of the previous ecological agriculture system. It is not impossible to build an ecosystem composed of only plants. , The participation of animals is not particularly necessary.

"Although it can be done, the operating cost of maintaining the entire ecosystem would be too high in that case." The researchers naturally considered similar questions, so they answered Chen Xin: "It's not just the pollination of plants. And the animals themselves are part of the ecological cycle. If this part is missing, it will not be worth the loss if we rely solely on external forces to maintain operation.

And the addition of animals can also make the entire ecosystem more complete and more stable. After all, we are just imitating nature, and only the ecosystem formed by nature itself is the most stable and perfect. "

Chen Xin can only say that he partly agrees with the researchers' remarks.

Animals, as part of the ecosystem, can make the entire ecosystem more complete. This is for sure. It can make the entire ecosystem more stable and not prone to collapse. It is correct, but the ecosystem formed by nature itself is not stable.

Because as the natural environment changes, animals and plants are constantly evolving, and the natural ecosystem itself is not static.

Otherwise, there will not be so many niche changes in the history of natural evolution, eliminating the old overlords and new races on the top of the food chain.

However, Chen Xin would not say these words. After all, he was only here to confirm the status of the biological research laboratory and to confirm whether subsequent animal breeding work could be carried out here, not to discuss the theory of biological evolution with researchers.

"How many incubation cabins do we have now?" Chen Xin glanced at the vacant incubation cabins around and asked the researchers.

"There are a total of 120 incubation cabins here, and only 20 are currently in use, and the rest can be used at any time." The researchers are naturally very familiar with the situation here, so the answer is just open.

Chen Xin nodded in satisfaction and said to the researchers: "In this case, you should be prepared to breed animals. As for which animals are needed, I will confirm with the project team of Dome New Town, and then check from the National Seed Bank. Transfer embryos and genetic samples."

"Good academicians, we will be ready to work." The researcher agreed, with an excited expression on his face. After all, there is not much work in the Biological Research Laboratory now, and it is undoubtedly a joy to be able to have a new job. Things.

And researchers can also hear that this is a big research project. After all, humans have never tried to build an urban-level ecological system before. This is useful in studying how humans live in harmony with the natural environment and build ecological balance. It has a very important meaning.

This is undoubtedly much larger and more meaningful than the Ecosystem No. 2 experiment constructed by the Federation.

After all, the Ecosphere No. 2 experiment conducted by the Federation at that time was just a few scientists and a few simulated ecological environments. They did not build a complete ecosystem, nor did they try to make humans and the ecological environment work together. get along.

The most important thing is that their experiment failed completely for various reasons.

As a researcher from the biological field, he is naturally familiar with this period of history. He sincerely hopes that Yan Country can achieve satisfactory success in this aspect, and really build an urban ecosystem that can operate effectively and smoothly, and realize humanity. Live in harmony with the nature of the environment. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

This is epoch-making research even before the disaster, not to mention that the external ecological environment has been completely extinct and collapsed, and only humans can rebuild the ecological system in the greenhouse environment.

If the harmony between mankind and the environment cannot be achieved, it means that mankind cannot rebuild the ecological environment of Blue Star, which is no less than a huge disaster for mankind.

Although the Blue Star itself does not need humans to rebuild the ecological environment, the mass extinction of species has occurred more than once on this planet, and the death of animals and plants in the world has not only occurred once, and the natural environment will recover by itself, but This will take at least tens or even millions of years.

For Blue Star itself, this may be just a flick of a finger, but for humans, it is a long time scale that surpasses the entire human development process from the initial evolution to the current civilization.

Humans cannot wait that long. Similarly, humans cannot allow the natural environment to evolve naturally, because no one knows whether the natural environment evolves naturally and whether humans can still adapt.
