Vol 3 Chapter 993: Ambitious Cosmic Mining Project

PS: Today is still eight. Thank you for your monthly pass. I hope that this rhythm can be maintained. There are less than 27 hours left before the end of this month. Can you give me a reward?

Hawking's final decision made this matter. After that, the four people continued to discuss a lot of details.
Two hours later, Cai Ruichen left Hawking's villa and returned to New York City.
On the way back, Cai Ruichen has been considering these two things.
In fact, the two projects he participated in are just Cai Ruichen's preparations for the rainy day.
Cai Ruichen has always had huge ambitions for the exploration of the universe, and many departments of the Future Aerospace Company he established have been working hard for this.
And his ambition can actually be seen from the future space launch center. The eight satellite launch points are connected. In fact, they are actually the launch positions of a super spacecraft.
And Cai Ruichen's ambition is not simply to immigrate to Mars or the moon, but to really want to expand his strength and influence.
And this plan is also quite urgent. The source of the base's strength is not in him, but in funding.
Cai Ruichen sees this very clearly. The only thing that the Red Police Corps needs to become stronger is more funds.
The source of funds can only rely on the recovery of minerals. The minerals on the earth are all limited. Cai Ruichen cannot wait until after occupying the world to mine all the minerals on the earth.
Therefore, he needs to find more and stable sources of funds in places that are not yet involved in major countries.
On the earth, all the funds have already been divided by the big countries, and he can only get a little bit of corners. If he wants to get those real big benefits, he must also touch the benefits of the big countries.
But outside the earth, it is a new point of competition. It is not about military power but who can take the lead. Have these benefits.
So Cai Ruichen has always been anxious. He has many goals. Helium III on the moon is one of the most important minerals.
This point has even been raised by the base, because in the future the base can even have nuclear fusion technology. But if there is no helium III as a raw material, it is all for nothing.
There are only 500 tons of helium III in the world. It can't meet the needs of the base at all, let alone more technical equipment and technological equipment in the future. All need to apply nuclear fusion technology.
If there is no helium III as a support, the future development of the base. It is impossible to reach the level of the base itself.
To bring out all the strength of the base, Cai Ruichen must find a way to mine helium III, and helium III can only satisfy him outside the earth.
Actually in the entire solar system. There are many planets that all have a large amount of helium III, and there are also a lot of helium III reserves on Titan. Helium III is also present in many meteorites in the solar system.
But comparing the distance between the moon and the earth, it is easier to mine the helium on the moon.
And this is Cai Ruichen's ambitious universe mining plan.
In fact. As early as Cai Ruichen, the United States had such a plan several years ago. The United States has two companies specializing in space mining technology research, and each year they can receive a large amount of financial assistance from the US government.
In Europe, Luxembourg, a small country, was the first country to start mining ore from the universe, and Luxembourg is also beginning to legislate on various rules for mining ore from the universe, which will eventually be submitted to the UN for deliberation.
At that time, as long as the United Nations passes, there will be laws to follow in the mining of space minerals, at least after each country officially extends its tentacles to the earth, there will be a rule to restrict it.
Luxembourg is the country with the most advanced space exploration technology in the entire European countries. Although the size of this country does not even need to be in the third ring of the capital, it is indeed the leader of Europe in this field. Otherwise, where will Luxembourg come from? So ambitious.
However, compared with the United States and Europe, Cai Ruichen rarely said, but sat a lot.
His construction of the future science and technology space station is the first step to realize this ambition. The future science and technology space station will be the first step towards colonizing the moon.
Moreover, the future science and technology space station will also have the ability to carry ore refineries in the future. In other words, Cai Ruichen will build the ore refinery into the space station.
This is not a delusion. In fact, once the future science and technology space station is completed, it will be a super huge space base, which can simulate the earth's gravity field environment, just like the gravity room of the training center.
It can perfectly simulate the gravity environment of the earth, and the space will expand, and it will gradually become a space city.
Such a magnificent plan is actually unimaginable for human beings in various countries at present, and at best it is just to check it out in the world of science fiction.
Of course, one of the greatest wealth of mankind is imagination, and the ambitious Cai Ruichen is about to turn such imagination into reality.
When the whole world discovers this, I am afraid that it is reasonable to exist.
In addition, Cai Ruichen’s ambition for the universe mining plan is not only the moon, but also the entire solar system in the future. In his words: Put on my national flag and it is my land. I am here, I see it, and I conquered it.
Of course, don't think that the planets of the solar system alone can satisfy Cai Ruichen, because once his ambition expands, it is definitely the kind of wild goose plucking hair.
Although there are no wild geese in the universe, all kinds of meteorites are indispensable, and most of these meteorites are minerals.
Regarding the minerals on these meteorites, Cai Ruichen never thought of giving up, and even many satellites have already determined that a large number of meteorites ~EbookFREE.me~ all contain many rare minerals on the earth.
In fact, Cai Ruichen's idea is very simple, that is, to use all possible technologies to obtain as much base development funds as possible.
Because with the escalation of authority, the cost of those advanced arms units and weapons units has also risen in a straight line.
The daily income of 20 million yuan is completely insufficient for those advanced equipment.
Even if all the weapons and equipment of the intermediate units are produced at the same time, even the daily income of 50 million yuan is far from enough.
Moreover, the focus of future development will be the most expensive navy and air force equipment. The cost of an aircraft carrier battle group is entirely accumulated with funds, and it is not cheap.
For a long time, Cai Ruichen's vision has also been very far, and the problems he pondered are all years later. After all, if you take one step at a time, it will be a disaster for the Red Police Corps.
Solemnly declare: all the real-world technologies involved in this book are real, not gorgeous. (To be continued.):
