Chapter 539 Unexpected News

Lin Shi rolled her eyes a few times, and immediately understood what was going on.

"Teacher, do you mean that the formation of these iron ores is probably related to the impact of asteroids and meteorites on the moon?"

"That's right, that's the reason I thought of." Xu You nodded in agreement.

Through the simulation in his own brain just now, Xu You basically confirmed his speculation.

"Like many asteroids and comets, their shapes are mostly irregular. Because of their relatively small mass and relatively limited gravitational force, they cannot form themselves into a spherical shape. And those larger celestial bodies generally appear spherical because they is massive enough to generate a gravitational force that exceeds the strength of the rock and pulls all the material on the surface into a spherical shape."

"The largest asteroid that hit the moon has a diameter of nearly 200 kilometers. Such a large volume is enough to make it almost spherical. Therefore, we have reason to believe that the impact of the asteroid and the formation of adamantite are the result of closely related."

In fact, as early as when Xu You and Xu Zhou discussed the reasons for the formation of diamond iron ore, they had made such an assumption.

The latest findings of Jintu-1 further confirm the possibility of this speculation.

At this time, Lin Shi continued to ask:

"Teacher, do you think there is such a special iron ore on the earth? The earth is also often hit by various meteorites."

"If this special iron ore really existed on the earth, it should have been discovered in such a long time. In fact, I have always had a question. Since the formation of this iron ore is related to asteroids and meteorites It is related to the impact, so will it have any relationship with the moon?"

Lin Shi immediately understood Xu You's meaning, quickly blinked a few times and asked:

"The teacher means that the formation of this special iron ore may not only be due to the impact, but also have something to do with the geological structure of the moon?"

"Yes, I have a feeling that maybe the impact of the asteroid is just one of the conditions. Of course, it is not ruled out that there are such special minerals on the asteroid that brought them to the moon."

"If this is the case, then things become very interesting. Also, teacher, why did the moon suffer from such a huge asteroid impact? In comparison, the earth is much larger, but it does not A similar record."

"So far, I don't know very well. Let's take a look at the four Jintu-1 lunar rovers, and what information can they bring us later."

For these questions, Xu You tried to infer using the skills of information and brain supplementation, but he did not come to a final conclusion.

Whether it is Xu You's current mastery of this skill or the amount of information he has, it is not enough for Xu You to unlock the secrets behind it.

After some research, Xu You decided to rule out these possible possibilities first.

Thinking of this, Xu You called a staff member and arranged a task for him.

In order to check whether this special iron ore really exists on the earth, Xu You hopes to focus on investigating the areas that have been hit by meteorites on the land of us and allied countries to see if there are any special substances.

If people have not conducted particularly detailed research on these substances before, there is indeed a possibility of omission.

…………

After completing a stage of lunar exploration work, the space agency released the first batch of partial lunar exploration videos of Jintu-1.

Space enthusiasts all over the world who have been waiting for this for a long time can finally see these precious videos.

In terms of the selection of public information, the space agency deliberately decided not to announce the discovery of diamond iron ore.

Because of this information, the previous Sam Space Agency also did not choose to publish it.

It's hard to assess what impact it would have if people knew that there were such precious minerals on the moon.

In addition to diamond iron ore, another very important resource on the moon is helium 3.

Helium 3 is considered to be a clean and safe nuclear fusion energy source. Judging from the estimated stock on the moon, it is enough for people on earth to use it for tens of thousands of years.

Of course, before the application of controllable nuclear fusion, helium 3 cannot immediately become a usable energy source.

And this news had been made public long before the Golden Rabbit-1 landed on the moon, so there was no need to hide it.

Although the National Space Administration has only released a very small amount of videos of the lunar exploration of the Golden Rabbit-1, these very small amounts of information are enough to make people all over the world excited about it.

"We have finally released the video of the lunar exploration mission of Golden Rabbit No. 1! Golden Rabbit No. 1 is really an off-road expert. On such a rough road, it can still drive so smoothly. Even a human posture master is very good at it." It’s hard to deal with such complicated road conditions.”

"This solar panel unfolding technology is really powerful. Unlike satellites that unfold solar panels once, Golden Rabbit-1 will repeat the unfolding and folding of solar panels, which is extremely useful for flexible electronic materials. The big test, once the quality of the material is not up to standard, it is likely to crack the solar panel. However, I heard that this is the flexible material technology from Fulong Technology. With the quality assurance of Fulong Technology, I believe that the flexible electronic material will be no problem. of."

"I didn't expect that the Golden Rabbit-1 also has the function of digging, which can detect the underground geology. This lunar rover can really be said to be a hexagonal warrior. It seems that there is nothing it can't do."

In addition to the admirable functions of the Golden Rabbit No. 1, there is another phenomenon that makes the people feel very regretful.

That is, there is far more garbage on the moon than everyone imagines.

These garbage are not only left over from the Apollo project, but also some space probes, as well as fragments of some satellites and so on.

According to estimates by the National Space Administration, there are about 200 tons of garbage on the moon.

When Jintu-1 was conducting lunar exploration, it often encountered all kinds of garbage.

Due to technical limitations, Golden Rabbit-1 currently does not have the ability to sort out garbage. This problem may be improved in the next generation of lunar rover.

In the first phase of exploration, four Golden Rabbit-1 vehicles have completed a total of 100 square kilometers of exploration.

Although such an area is only a drop in the bucket for the entire moon, it is already an extremely huge breakthrough for human exploration of the moon.

The data transmitted back by the four Golden Rabbit-1 vehicles has far exceeded the sum of previous lunar explorations.

But at this moment, an unexpected news suddenly appeared.
