Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

As early as the 1990s, the United States tried to build a miniature artificial ecological circulation system in the desert north of Tucson, Arizona, in order to conduct ecological and environmental research in a closed state, helping humans understand how Earth works. And study the conditions in the Earth environment.

The project was originally initiated by a rugby player and received investment from a number of consortiums including Rockefeller, costing 1.5 billion dollars, which caused quite a stir at the time.

However, unfortunately, the final experimental results were not as sensational as when the idea was put forward. The experimental team stationed in Biology No. 2, after only one year of persistence, announced the failure of the plan and had to The biology circle was withdrawn from the second.

The only conclusion of the experiment is that Earth may be the only home suitable for human livelihood.

In general, this plan is undoubtedly a failure. Biology No. 2 has not formed an ecological system that can exist independently and has been transformed into an eco-hotel even after the project ended.

However, standing in the era of the times, this idea is quite groundbreaking, and some of the technologies that have been born have re-emerged in many other fields.

From the mission of system layout, the probability of 90% or more in the third phase of the mission chain is to establish a permanent or semi-permanent settlement in the moon, or a scientific research station. Although the manned landing on the first stage has not yet been completed, it does not prevent Lu Zhou from preparing for the future.

What’s more, even in the first phase of the mission, there is a branch line such as “planting on the moon” waiting for him.

Therefore, after several careful exchanges with experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Space Administration, and the Ministry of Science and Technology, the “fire” artificial biology circle program came into being.

Compared with the Biology Circle No. 2 in the United States, the goal of the “Fire” program is more clear, paving the way for space colonization.

Based on a combination of factors such as climate, environment, etc., the location of the “fire” plan biology circle a is set in the Gurbantunggut Desert in the middle of the Zhungeer Basin, through a hemispherical building structure, completely outside the world. Isolated.

Of course, considering the realities, Lu Zhou did not, as in the case of Arizona’s biology circle 2, over-constrained by providing a complete ecosystem to provide a comfortable livelihood environment for the “colonizers”. Instead, Allow “limited mineral, freshwater, biology resources input” to execute the plan with the goal of reducing resource input as much as possible.

Regarding this project, although Lu Zhou has formulated a specific implementation plan, he did not personally take responsibility. Instead, he chose to cooperate with several universities such as the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Huaguo Agricultural University, and selected a researcher from Huaguo Agricultural University. As the main person in charge…

After staying in the 150 camp 4 camp for one night, the next day after seeing the researchers from Nanjing, Lu Zhou simply explained the work on the spot, and then received the Huaguo Agricultural University. The phone over there, I learned that the researcher has arrived in Urumqi.

From Urumqi to the center of Zhungeer Basin, there is still a long way to go. Lu Zhou is not in a hurry. After eating at noon, Wang Peng drives himself and a guide in a unit to go out and take a circle in the desert. I checked the terrain of the nearby area.

Almost in the evening, a desert-colored military jeep and a water truck appeared on the desert’s horizon and slowly approached the checkpoint at the entrance to the camp.

It happened that it was coming back from the outside, and Lu Zhou got off the bus directly at the door and walked over to the desert-colored jeep. When he walked to the door of the car, a middle-aged man with glasses, a windbreaker, and a tall, thin-skinned man carrying a seemingly old rucksack pushed the door down.

At a glance, Lu Zhou was recognized. The middle-aged man put his backpack on his shoulder and smiled and extended his right hand.

“Fortunately, I will be lucky, Lu-Professor! For a long time!”

“It’s not so polite,” Lu Zhou shook his hand and shook it. After he let go, he smiled and made a gesture of asking. “This is not the place to talk, please.”

In addition to the guys who carry daily necessities and eat, there are two doctors who are also wearing the dusty servants on the car. The look on the face looks not very good. It seems that they have not slept well on this road.

Due to the large wind and sand outside, the entire group was tired and bumped all the way, so Lu Zhou invited them into an activity metal room. Just as he was going to find a tea set, Yan Yan, wearing a military green dress, came in from the outside with a teapot and a cup.

“The water just boils, you go to sit, let me come.”

Looking at Yan Wei nodded, Lu Zhou said.

“sorry to bother you.”

“No trouble.”

Reaching out the hair of the horns to the back of the ear, Yan Yan poured a cup of tea on the four people sitting in the room, then left the teapot on the table, turned and walked out of the door, and took the door with ease. .

Sitting at the desk, Lu Zhou took a resume from the drawer and looked at the middle-aged Professor who sat on the sofa very cautiously against the resume, especially if it was similar to the photo.

I was embarrassed to be looked at by Lu Zhou. The Professor coughed softly and asked in a tone.

“Is there any problem?”

“Nothing, just confirm,” faint laughed, Lu Zhou put down the resume in his hand and looked at the Professor. “Welcome to the Gurbantunggut Desert.”

Sitting in front of Lu Zhou, the farmer’s professor, named Hu Yang, has a name and a plant homonym that is not rare on the Gobi Desert. The pragmatic character is similar.

Before that, Lu Zhou had never seen him. He only saw his photos from the resume given by Huaguo Agricultural University, and briefly understood his research direction and academic background.

In general, his resume is relatively common in all aspects. Like most Scholars who are engaged in unpopular research, he has not commented on the Yangtze River Scholar, and he has no connection with academicians… but these things are not what Lu Zhou is interested in.

After all, the research direction is so unpopular, if there is still a lot of results, it is called fuck’s problem.

Lu Zhou simply looked at his resume and decided to hand over the project to him.

There is no reason for him. On the one hand, there is a professional counterpart. On the other hand, there is no certain persistence or perseverance. Few people will stick to an unpopular and difficult outcome, and persist in such a long time.

Another job is very hard. It must be staying on the Gobi Desert all the year round. It can be said to be a waste of youth and a waste of life.

Apart from him, basically no one has taken the initiative to apply here.

In a sense, Lu Zhou’s choice is not a lot.

After about two minutes of chilling, Lu Zhou didn’t have a long time, and after dropping the cup, he quickly entered the topic.

“I won’t say much if I have a guest. I believe that the specific situation of the ‘fire type’ plan has already been told by you at the University of Agriculture.”

“Yes,” Hu Yang nodded, said in a serious tone, “I received the project proposal from the day before yesterday, and I almost rushed here.”

“It’s been hard all the way.”

“Where is the matter,” Hu Yang said laughingly. “When we do this, we always have to go to the experimental field. Whether it is in the desert or on the edge of the city, it is the same for me!”

Lu Zhou nodded, continue.

“You can think so, it’s really admirable. It’s not easy to make such a brave decision. You must have thought for a long time and made a certain degree of awareness, but I still have to say something more. This project is of great significance. It is related to the future of China’s space industry, and it is also related to the layout of China’s future development of external space resources. The mission is very arduous and very hard!”

Paused, Lu Zhou continues.

“Before taking over this research project, I hope that you have seriously considered it clearly. This means that in the next few years, even in a dozen years, you have to live a livelihood away from people. Only holidays may have a chance to return. Family.”

The two doctoral students sitting next to Hu Yang held their breath, but soon relaxed.

Although the wrong Boss, the wrong direction, the hard work is inevitable, but they do not have to do such a big awareness with their Professor.

After all, they have graduated for more than a few years, and they have graduated two articles. They stayed here for two years.

As for Hu Yang, the expression from start to finish has nothing to change.

After Lu Zhou’s voice fell, he was just nodded, and he said in a serious tone that he didn’t have to hesitate.

“I have already considered it clearly.”

The expression was awe-inspiring, Lu Zhou looked at him and solemnly said.

“Tell me here.”
