The manufacturing area of the base is on the other side of the base, with chimneys rising from the ground into the air.
The fumes from these chimneys will slowly change the temperature of Mars.
Of course, these changes are nothing short of a drop in the bucket, but Tang Shizhe has other ways to increase the temperature of Mars. The exhaust gas emitted by this factory is just icing on the cake.
This manufacturing plant contains all the functions of mining, refining, forging, and manufacturing. It is fully capable of making this base self-sufficient in parts!
Of course, high-end equipment such as chips cannot be manufactured here, and only low-tech parts can be produced here.
Five ten-meter-high mine carts are the main force responsible for transporting ore. A crater not far from the base is the mine used to provide minerals for the base.
The meteorite that fell here carried a large amount of precious metals, enough for the base to mine for a year!
Under the base, a well being dug will be the main source of water supply for the base in the future.
Once the freezing water source or underground river is found underground, the water source problem of the advance base will be completely solved!
But before it discovered the water source, the forward base could only rely on the water tank dropped from the sky above Mars One to survive.
"The satellite network in the orbit of Mars has been launched. Communication satellites, weather satellites, resource exploration satellites, and navigation satellites are all in orbit. You will soon receive various information from the satellites!" Tang Jiuling looked at it. All the satellites in the display have been in orbit, speaking to the astronauts on the ground.
"received!"
"We hope that the resource exploration satellite can find more metal mines as soon as possible. We plan to start expanding the base after the agricultural area is stabilized!" The astronauts on the ground sighed with relief.
The deployment of satellite network means that they can master all the dynamics of the entire Mars and no longer have to worry about the sudden arrival of sandstorms.
Some time ago, even though Mars One sent an early warning, they were still embarrassed by the sudden appearance of sandstorms.
And one of them almost got lost outside the base. Fortunately, the help of robots saved him from danger!
"Can we communicate with Blue Star?" The astronauts who have been away from Blue Star for so long have missed their relatives and friends.
"It's fine! But because there is a signal delay of more than ten minutes, you can only contact you by leaving a message."
"But note that all your messages will be reviewed by Titan Group several times before they will be sent to your relatives and friends!"
"Your mission is top secret! No information can be disclosed! Once you violate the regulations, you know what the consequences will be!" Tang Jiuling's tone became serious.
"We know! Don't worry!" The astronauts all stated that they had understood.
The back of the moon at this time.
After 120 days of development, the original mine and factory in the crater have been completely completed!
An orbital elevator towed by the space station also stands in the center of the crater.
Because of the much lower gravity of the moon, the engineering volume of this orbital elevator is not large, the difficulty is not high, and the technical content is so low that the Blue Star Federation can build it.
However, the existence of this orbital elevator has reduced the time-consuming process of building parts in the ground factory and then transporting them to the shipyard to one-fifth of the original time!
Such a high efficiency improvement has made the shipyard's speed of building spacecraft nearly twice as fast!
Not only that, with the completion of the manufacturing plant in the crater, more than half of the spacecraft parts can be self-sufficient!
The remaining half is also because the lunar mines have not found the raw materials for these parts, otherwise the shipyard can achieve most of the self-sufficiency!
You must know that this mine and manufacturing base has invested most of the production capacity of the Titan Group for one hundred and twenty days!
The capsule spacecraft launched by the orbital launch tower, except for the supply of living supplies to the Orbital Light Sky Station, has all been used for the construction of this base and shipyard!
But the results are also remarkable! The number of docks in the Moon B1 shipyard has also reached three! Three spaceships with a length of no more than 1.5km can be built at the same time!
The residential space station of the shipyard can accommodate up to 10,000 people for office and rest!
Someone may ask, why not use magic seeds to build a moon base? Why not use magic seeds to build spaceships?
This involves the necessary conditions for the growth of the magic seed, that is solar energy!
If there is no solar magic seed, although it can grow, but the speed is only one thousandth of the original! It's better to make parts and assemble!
And the back of the moon is a place where there is no direct sunlight. The growth rate of the magic seed here is extremely low!
The reason why the warship was not built was because the intensity of the magic seed was still too low.
Don’t look at the Orbital Light. Sky City can be built with magic seeds, but it’s a space city floating on orbit! It does not need to consider how long the structural strength can last when it is attacked, and its trajectory changes slowly.
And if the spacecraft followed the orbital speed of the orbital light, it would have been hit by a meteorite or a shell!
According to Tang Shizhe's maneuvering speed, a space station with structural strength like Orbital Light has only one consequence, and it will disintegrate as soon as it accelerates!
In this case, the keel of the spaceship cast with alloy becomes the best choice.
This is also the reason why the construction efficiency of the spacecraft is so low!
And so many equipment and wiring work in the spaceship~EbookFREE.me~ If it is put on a hollow shell that grows out of a magic seed, it is not as fast as to build the parts directly to assemble the spaceship.
The modular design of the spacecraft can greatly reduce the time spent on interior decoration and make the ship burst more efficient!
In these hundred and twenty days, the Titan Group also built an experimental space battleship.
said that the warship may have overestimated it, because the structural strength of these spaceships is very low, and the combat effectiveness may not be as strong as that of destroyers in the ocean.
But as the first space battleship of mankind, it is already very good!
Because it uses the same template as Mars One. The main body of this experimental warship is still a long strip, but it has two more symmetrical keels than the Mars One spacecraft to enhance the structural strength of the spacecraft.
It looks like ordinary warships in the ocean, except that the narrowed bottom of the ship has become a long and narrow deck.
The entire battleship is equipped with five double-mounted electromagnetic railguns on the upper deck, and five double-mounted electromagnetic railguns on the lower deck, each of which has a length of 50 The giant of rice!
In this way, when the warship is facing the enemy sideways, it can make ten electromagnetic guns attack at the same time!
On both sides of the battleship are missile silos and laser close-in defense systems to defend against incoming missiles or fighters.
