Beneath Deep Space

Chapter 172: Turning Waste Into Treasure

No matter what, it is very dangerous to use large-scale reconnaissance instruments to detect the high-speed Noah...

To make trouble outside, you must first stabilize the inside. Now the interior of Noah is full of swords and fire, and there is no way to carry out such a large-scale project. The interior must be repaired before the outside can be detected.

The first problem facing people is still the high temperature inside. If the high temperature problem is not solved, no project can be done.

"Post-disaster reconstruction is very difficult." Yu Yifeng muttered to himself while looking at the analysis report. Especially the large amount of magma in the high gravity area below, the temperature is at least tens of thousands of degrees, the quantity is large, and the temperature is high, which is very troublesome.

"These are all resources! It's a pity that they can't be used..."

If they are allowed to cool naturally, hundreds or thousands of years may not be enough. People can't wait so long!

In order to cope with this post-disaster reconstruction work, Yu Yifeng also specially convened a post-disaster reconstruction conference...

This reconstruction conference is also a mobilization meeting for all members of the new human civilization. After all, all mankind has survived such a big disaster, it is necessary to celebrate and boost everyone's morale.

New work is about to begin.

Some great scientists, business executives, and government lawmakers will also attend this meeting to discuss issues related to post-disaster reconstruction.

On such occasions, Yu Yifeng must come forward and speak...

That afternoon, he stood at the front of the conference and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am very happy to be on this podium. We are still alive, all of us are alive!"

"Thank you Noah! Thank you for this magical and great spaceship! Let me, on behalf of all new humans, pay tribute to this spaceship!"

Yu Yifeng bowed deeply to the front. This bow was a heartfelt thank you.

Then he stood up and said: "Thank you to all members of the new human civilization. Because of unity and hard work, we... survived!"

"We survived!"

The people below applauded, all with smiles on their faces. Who would want to die if they can live?

The metal inside the Noah was somewhat damaged, but the surface hull was actually fine. This also means that the Noah civilization is likely to be at the same level as the civilization that created the neutron star fragments.

Human beings can survive, thanks to this magical spaceship. It has led humans to escape disasters again and again. Without it, there would be no new human civilization!

Of course, thanks to the efforts of human beings themselves, these radiation walls were built by human beings themselves.

"Yes, we have successfully survived this huge disaster!"

Yu Yifeng raised his voice and said excitedly: "Our civilization will surely be reborn from the ashes in the disaster and become stronger and more prosperous! Let us work together..."

Although we are still facing various difficulties, it is always a good thing to be alive.

Living means hope and a future!

After the mobilization meeting, the next reconstruction meeting will not be broadcast live to the public. The content discussed at the reconstruction meeting will be selected by reporters and then reported to the public.

Yu Yifeng paused, said a few more simple words, and then changed the subject, "Let's get down to business, about the reconstruction and transformation of the spacecraft... Everyone has seen the volcanic environment outside."

"... Post-disaster reconstruction must be carried out as soon as possible, and our food reserves are still about a year. The high temperature problem must be solved as soon as possible, and then plantations, farms, etc. must be opened up. I believe everyone does not want a second food crisis, right?"

"Secondly, half of our water resources have been lost, and a lot of inorganic salts and organic minerals have also been lost, which is also a big problem. They have all turned into water vapor or magma below... Some have even dissipated."

"These are all big problems..."

All of these people are human elites, they have long known this difficulty, and they began to discuss in a low voice and make suggestions.

It is extremely difficult to salvage the hot magma, and humans simply do not have materials that can withstand the high temperature of tens of thousands of degrees.

"Then just block it, just leave a small opening to vent the heat radiation."

"...We can direct the heat radiation to some useless areas of Noah, so that it will not affect our lives. We can also extract a small amount of materials from the steam..."

Although this pile of magma is huge, it is actually water without a source and a tree without roots. If a large amount of heat-resistant materials are used to block the heat radiation port, it would be a good choice.

In just a few hours, a rough plan has taken shape. Yu Yifeng took a simple look and found that the feasibility of this plan is still relatively high.

"No... This part of the heat should not be thrown away directly, but can be used to generate electricity!"

Suddenly, an electric power expert with a gray beard shouted. His eyes lit up, as if he saw the rise of a new energy source!

"Yes, power generation!" He shouted again.

Thermal power generation, this almost forgotten power generation mode has been brought up again.

The super high heat of magma is very suitable for power generation. Most of the energy used on Noah is nuclear energy, and people did not think about it for a while. Now that thermal power generation has been discussed, everyone sees the feasibility of it, and they all seem to be stunned.

"Generate electricity?"

"...Generate electricity!"

More experts went from being confused at first to being excited later, and from frowning to beaming with joy. Once this idea was proposed, the original plan was overturned.

This pile of magma soon became a treasure of mankind. As long as it is properly utilized, the energy available to people will be greatly increased!

There are so many of them, conservatively estimated to be over one trillion tons! The backflow of Martian material, coupled with a large amount of slag, radiation protection walls and residues after melted metal, this amount is not overwhelming.

Around this, scientists quickly formulated a spacecraft reconstruction plan that included 20,000 jobs! This plan can maximize the utilization of this part of magma, including but not limited to power generation, heating, etc.

According to this plan, this kind of thermal power generation can even account for more than 80% of the total power generation of the entire Noah, and can be stable for more than fifty years, and the rest can be made up with nuclear energy.

"This is a really good use of waste."

When Yu Yifeng saw the newly released plan, he couldn't help but feel good. Of course, the more the better for things like energy. Moreover, humans can finally recycle small amounts of resources, including water!

"If we use a power station to block the magma cave, the high temperature outside will dissipate within a few months, and... we can use existing ice cubes to accelerate heat dissipation to the outside world. It is estimated that it can be completed within a month!"

"Also, some new external thermal radiation devices also need to be re-manufactured." Plans were being drawn up in an orderly manner, and even the entire Noah had to be overhauled!

At this time, a new ecological plan was grandly proposed... In the eyes of biologists, the destruction of the honeycomb structure is even a good thing!

"With the help of these large holes penetrated by gamma rays, we can allow the entire air in the spacecraft to circulate more freely and expand the volume of the ecosystem. Such a large ecosystem is more stable and reliable, and can even produce phenomena such as rainfall! "

Biologists led by Roman are becoming more and more vocal. They even see the possibility of creating a pseudo-Earth ecosystem!

In the past, these purple metals were so difficult to destroy that people's ecological environment could only be limited to small hives. Now... the situation is different.

According to the idea, if humans create a low-temperature environment in the low-gravity area above, after water vapor rises to this area, it will automatically condense and form water droplets to fall. Such natural rainfall will be much easier to use than the original dehumidifier.

Of course... everything needs to be carefully designed and requires long and rigorous discussions.

After the conference, this part of the ecological design work continues.

Yu Yifeng started a long debate with experts again, how to modify the spacecraft, how many resources should be used, not only to ensure safety, but also to ensure ecological stability...

So after his eyes turned red, he felt like he was starting to lose his hair again...
