Chapter 855 (2/2)

Because there is no global ”dipole magnetic field” protection on the moon, the solar wind containing carbon, nitrogen, helium, neon, argon, krypton and other rare gas ions can drive into the moon, continuously bombard the lunar surface and enter the lunar soil particles, so that the lunar soil contains a considerable amount of helium 3.

As for the value of this kind of energy, here is a set of data that can be intuitively expressed. One kilogram of helium-3, if used to generate electricity, could produce 19 megawatts of energy, enough to supply the city of Moscow for six years. Only 10 tons of helium 3 is needed to generate enough electricity for the whole country for a year!

In addition, for every ton of helium-3 extracted from lunar soil, 6300 tons of hydrogen, 70 tons of nitrogen and 1600 tons of carbon can be obtained. However, compared with the value of the former, the value of these by-products is negligible.

The lunar soil itself is also a mineral rich in aluminum, iron, magnesium, titanium and rare earth metals.

The power generation technology of nuclear fusion has been established in Jiangchen. The power source of Penglai City is the nuclear fusion generator from the end of Yizhou Island, as well as several deuterium storage tanks. Now what needs to be solved is how to efficiently extract those helium-3 from lunar soil.This is also one of the main tasks of these colonial pioneers and researchers.

Just like this, the colony of 24 people spent S $1 billion.

But he believes the money is worth it.

After watching the video, Kelvin found Jiang Chen.

”NASA wants us to be able to make public the living conditions of the colonists and share our observations on the moon. They are willing to exchange this information with us for a file that has not been made public to the United Nations space division. ”

”Is that information important? I mean theirs. ” Jiang Chen asked.

Winkle thought for a moment.

”It's not very important. NASA officials revealed that the unpublished files are mainly about the analysis of krip rocks and the distribution of helium-3 reservoirs in lunar soil. Our researchers are also studying these things, but we don't know where they have reached.”

”There's no need to exchange information with them. I'm sure you'll be ahead of them.” Jiang Chen said, pausing for a moment, and then said, ”but the living conditions of the colonists can be made public. After all, this is part of the propaganda. Now there are rumors on the Internet that slander us, saying that the astronauts are mice, and now they are dead? Shooting a short documentary of their lives is just a powerful counterattack! As for what can be disclosed and what must be kept secret, I think you should be clear about it. ”

”You can rest assured.” Kerwin nodded with a smile.

After explaining this, Jiang Chen was about to leave, but Kerwin seemed to think of something and stopped him.

Jiang Chen looked back and asked.

”Is there anything else?”

”One more thing. Two days ago, our space launch center received an application for a visit from the United Kingdom. ” Kerwin replied.

”Visit application? Don't we have to get a bunch of requests every day? ” Jiang Chen said with a smile.

”There's something special about this man. I can't refuse directly. I have to ask your opinion. ” Said Kerwin cautiously.

”Who? Is it the queen of England Jiang Chen joked.

”No, it's Hawking.” (to be continued. ）Mobile phone users please browse and read, better reading experience.
