Chapter 367 Moon Prospecting

The moon's advance base is now brightly lit, which means the arrival of working hours.

The time for the moon to rotate for one week is the same as the time for the earth to rotate for one week.

This is also the reason why the moon has only one side and is always facing the earth.

It is precisely because the moon rotates slowly that it is impossible for people to use the time when the moon rotates as heaven.

Only the standard working and rest time of the earth can be used, and when the sun is not visited, the day and night are displayed through light control.

At the base of the Moon Advance Base, Peng Feng, the captain of the Seventh Prospecting Team, shouted in his thick voice like a broken gong: "Brothers, get up quickly and have a meal, and you will go to work in a while."

Wang Zhihua ate braised pork and fish meat and said angrily: "I applied for an astronaut. I thought I could practice space walks and repair space stations like my predecessors.

I was sent to the moon and was even happier, thinking I had the opportunity to show my strength.

Unexpectedly, I was assigned to the prospecting group. I was prospecting every day, and the boring work could not realize my ideal at all."

Peng Feng looked at the prospecting team of nine people. Wang Zhihua was a literary young man who was nagging all day long and was the most tedious.

He said again tirelessly: "We are not repetitive labor. The repetitive work of intelligent robots day after day is repetitive labor.

We flew to all parts of the moon in order to detect high-value mineral veins.

Our work is very important, and the specimens we collect provide sufficient evidence for scientists.

Only then can they determine which place on the moon has very rich mineral veins, and they can mobilize intelligent robots to go to mine in this place."

Wang Zhihua sighed and said, "I feel that this job is nothing important, and it is even less important than intelligent robots.

They mine resources such as helium-3 and can also collect enough minerals.

We have now explored more than 100 regions and have not found any valuable resources.

The mineral resource satellites above the moon and the probes carried on the space shuttle have already detected most of the moon's resources clearly. We are doing useless work now."

Peng Feng said confidently: "Wang Zhihua, don't be discouraged, believe in the value of our work.

Resource satellites and space shuttles are nothing more than detecting the mineral resources on the surface of the moon.

They are also familiar with lunar mineral resources, such as places where helium-3 is enriched, and mineral veins containing metals such as lithium, iron, and copper.

Some minerals that may be unique to the moon have no information in their databases and must be explored manually.

As long as we find a valuable mineral resource, our work will not be in vain."

Peng Feng's prospecting team will hold such discussions almost every once in a while, mainly to unify their thoughts and encourage each other.

The quality of astronauts is very high, and it is completely ideal to come to the moon's advance base.

The salary here is relatively high, but the dangers and work difficulties are also very high.

It's not hard for them to return to Earth, drive the Sky Train or find other high-paying jobs.

Supporting them to work at the Moon Advance Base, Ideal occupies a very important position.

Without ideal support, it is really difficult for ordinary people to survive on the moon's advance base.

Compared to the earth, this place is a primitive society, even some small tribes in Africa are not as good as those.

After breakfast, they went to the warehouse of the engineering mecha.

Before preparing to board the engineering mecha, Peng Feng gave each person 15 capsules in special bottles.

"A colleague died some time ago, and you all learned about this situation.

The company did not give up on us, Tao Shengwen scientist from the Cell Laboratory of Spark Science and Technology Research Institute.

He has developed this kind of life capsule that can directly allow us to survive for 15 days without water, oxygen, and fasting.

It doesn’t take 15 days, you only need to wait for an hour. If something happens in any corner of the moon, the moon’s advance base can send people to the scene to rescue.”

Peng Feng and his prospecting team drove the engineering mecha and flew towards the place where they were preparing to explore.

Peng Feng took off in the engineering mecha, and he saw the stout building in the center of the moon's advance base.

This is the most core device of the Moon Advance Base, a controllable nuclear fusion reactor.

It generates huge amounts of electricity and supplies the consumption of the moon's advance base.

The electrical energy generated by a controllable fusion reactor, even if the moon's advance base is expanded a hundred times, is more than enough to supply its energy.

The prospecting team flew towards a crater on the back of the moon.

Wang Zhihua saw that the moon was covered with densely packed with intelligent robots, as if they were passing by locusts, collecting the lunar soil on the surface of the moon.

Judging from their trend, these intelligent robots will not stop working without collecting all the lunar soil on the surface of the moon.

Wang Zhihua complained in the communication channel: "Your Star Fire Technology is really poor. As for this? This is to repurify the lunar soil on the moon."

Peng Feng didn’t know how Wang Zhihua asked such a naive question?

He still expressed his opinion, saying: "I think doing this is the right choice. National competition has always been the law of the jungle.

If we make a road through, we should find ways to block this road so that others can no longer understand.

Lunar soil is rich in helium-3. In addition to helium-3, it can also extract many rich mineral resources.

The extracted lunar soil can also be made into hollow bricks for construction of buildings on the moon.

With the emergence of controlled nuclear fusion reactors, helium-3 is more important than previous oil, and it is the lifeblood of many countries.

You can imagine that more than 95% of the world's oil is in the hands of a certain big country, and the result will be terrible.

Other countries do not have helium-3 available, and they can only develop more risky deuterium tritium fusion reactors.

We are building technological leadership for future generations.”

Peng Feng led the prospecting team to the destination, and they began to control the engineering mecha to conduct prospecting work.

The moon's crust is very hard, and the engineering mecha uses a high-frequency cutting knife to drill a round hole with a diameter of half a meter on the moon's crust.

The depth they earn will reach more than 20 kilometers underground, which is already the ultimate depth they can now mine veins on the moon.

The lunar crust rock specimens obtained by the Pengfeng Prospecting Team will be sent to the lunar base to the laboratory, and some scientists will analyze it.

These specimens will also be sent to the earth, and Earth scientists will conduct a comprehensive analysis of specimens of lunar crust rock formations.

Peng Feng's prospecting team is very simple, but they cannot make any mistakes, and they must also mark the accurate information of the specimen.

The information of the specimen must not be incorrect. If the original material is incorrect, even the scientists with the highest level will not get the correct results.
