Chapter 278 Space Hospital

What does the mass production of nanorobots mean?

What are the uses of nanorobots and what kind of role can they play?

In fact, Jiao Chengyue summarized it very clearly in one sentence: Eliminate more than 99% of biological diseases.

That is, bacterial and fungal infections, viral infections, cancer cell lesions in the human body, etc., can all be solved.

Kill with nanorobots.

Many kinds of incurable and terminal diseases before, such as AIDS, rabies, rheumatism, and difficult and complicated diseases such as leukemia, can be treated with nanorobots, allowing patients to recover quickly without having to take a lot of chemical drugs.

It can be said to be the terminator of countless diseases.

But the more exaggerated the ability of nanorobots, the more difficult it is to develop, which can be called "Zenith Star Technology".

To make a more specific analogy: the difficulty of manufacturing nanorobots is at least ten times that of 2-nanometer chips.

Because the average diameter of a single nanorobot is only 10 microns, which is slightly larger than a red blood cell.

But scientists have to achieve three core functions in such a small volume.

One is power.

To make the nanorobots have the ability to move autonomously, they can move purposefully to various parts of the body, and they can concentrate their forces to eliminate the lesions.

Therefore, there must be a "power source" or a device that can generate power inside the nanorobot, and ensure that its endurance is long enough, so that it will not "run out of power" after a few hours and enter a state of paralysis.

It is best that its power can work for a long time, or even permanently, like a perpetual motion machine.

The second is identification.

It can accurately identify harmful viruses and microorganisms, but most viruses and microorganisms are transparent or translucent in color, not colorful, and it is impossible to judge whether they are harmful based on their appearance.

So its shape must be scanned.

And the nanorobots are equipped with "precision guidance warheads" - proteases, so as to accurately match and then kill.

The third is control.

It can be controlled very flexibly and accurately.

Instructions can be issued externally to allow the nanorobots to quickly concentrate on a certain area of ​​the human body and fight an annihilation war.

Plan the route for a single nanorobot so that it will not be stuck in some dead corners and unable to move.

Finally, after the disease is completely eliminated, in order to prevent the human immune system from attacking foreign objects such as "nano robots", the nanorobots must be withdrawn from the human environment and leave through the intestines or other routes after the battle.

To achieve even one of the above three core functions, hundreds of difficulties must be solved, and a few or only successful paths must be found from countless trial paths. Even if hundreds of methods are tried, all of them are dead ends.

For example, if you want the nanorobot to work efficiently for more than one day, its energy density must be more than ten times that of the "Emperor III" high-energy battery.

For example, to achieve precise control, a single nanorobot must be able to accommodate about 1MB of information and send back electromagnetic waves for display and positioning.

All functions must be integrated within an average diameter of 10 microns.

Theoretically, with the current level of human technology, such nanorobots may not be manufactured in fifty years.

But Jiao Chengyue led his technical team to do it.

The mass production of nanorobots is about to be realized.

"The nanorobot we developed can be called the first generation of nanorobots."

"Its energy system uses a special wave-absorbing energy storage material, which uses 3G electromagnetic waves that can penetrate the human body for irradiation to obtain energy, and can reflect back 2G electromagnetic waves to roughly determine the position of each nanorobot... Through the electromagnetic wave radiation method, it not only solves the energy supply problem of nanorobots, but also solves the problem of precise control."

"It can store 800KB of information, which is enough to concentrate on the designated area according to the instructions, and eliminate the lesions efficiently and quickly without leaving a single fish slipping through the net."

"Later, we will also add a 'drug' transportation function to it, and send specific drugs to cells with problems to solve problems in cells, such as enhancing cell vitality; or inject gene repair substances into cells with genetic defects to achieve more efficient targeted treatment."

"Its appearance is enough to declare that humans have completely defeated diseases! Breaking free from the shackles of nature, they will no longer be troubled by any diseases and plagues."

Jiao Chengyue introduced excitedly.

However...

He also had to point out some shortcomings and limitations of the first generation of nanorobots.

For example, the power density is still not high. Unless it is concentrated and the intensity of electromagnetic wave radiation is increased, it can burst out with powerful ability and kill viruses much faster than the virus proliferation rate.

But if it spreads throughout the body, the efficiency is low and it may be rejected by the immune system.

Moreover, it is easily disturbed and affected by various air noises on the blue planet, resulting in a high error rate, and it must be operated in an electromagnetic shielding room.

The most fatal point is that due to insufficient power, the first generation of nanorobots can hardly clean up the stubborn toxins in the human body and cannot perform efficient detoxification.

But there are ways to solve the above problems!

"What way?" Wei Ming asked.

"Build a space hospital."

Jiao Chengyue said: "In the weightless environment of space, since there is no need to overcome the influence of gravity, the working efficiency of the first generation of nanorobots can be increased by more than three times. The toxins in the human bones and internal organs can also be discharged more easily. In addition, there is no interference from the ground clutter environment... its ability can be maximized!"

"Boss Wei, just imagine that the "Eternal Life Plan" project team has overcome the problem of life extension and repaired telomeres, and human life span has been easily extended to 150 years. Our nanorobots have eliminated all diseases, and can also help increase cell vitality, repair defective genes, and discharge stubborn toxins... Almost all the core problems of the "Eternal Life Plan" have been overcome, giving humans the technical foundation and premise for extending life and restoring health and vitality."

"I estimate that the day the space hospital is built will be almost the day when the "Eternal Life Plan" succeeds, so we need a space hospital!"

Space hospital?

Wei Ming muttered.

Suddenly I remembered a movie called "Elysium" I had seen, in which there was a powerful and magical space hospital that could cure all diseases, but only served the rich. The Virgin Mary protagonist sacrificed her life in order to cure the disease.

Now, after hearing what Jiao Chengyue said, space hospitals seem to be a necessary path for human health and longevity.

"Find someone to study it and come up with a specific design and construction plan."

Wei Ming thought for a while and said, "If such a space hospital is needed, I will find a way to build it."

"Yes, President Wei!"
