Chapter 458 (1/2)
The 50 towers used to transform the Martian atmosphere stand on the mountains of Mars.
These towers are ejecting carbon dioxide as well as oxygen.
Icy asteroids transported from the asteroid belt are thrown directly from orbit into craters around Mars, turning them into lakes of varying sizes.
With the melting ice at the poles, the water resources on Mars have gradually reached a level that can meet the needs of plants.
The thickened atmosphere reduces the cosmic rays received on Mars to a relatively safe level, while reducing the temperature difference between day and night on Mars to the extent that plants can survive.
has been genetically engineered to release oxygen from the air, which is the essence of algae that spread throughout the everfount lakes, providing oxygen to Mars.
At the same time, because of the popularization of adaptive evolutionary genes, human beings have the ability to live in this hypoxia environment, and their ability to resist cosmic rays is also greatly enhanced.
Originally, humans could only live in bases covered by dome, but when they were able to survive in low oxygen environment, independent buildings began to appear around these bases.
Buildings began to rise around the original Mars colony, and the buildings were no longer connected to each other by corridors. Instead, eight lanes of roads were exposed.
The 200000 newly graduated doctoral students and their relatives from blue star have injected new vitality into the Mars colony. They will move into the newly built buildings around the Mars colony.
However, the original base with dome was handed over to the Kaji people to live in. After all, they did not have human specific adaptive evolution genes, and they were also creatures evolved in the hyperoxia environment. The thin air on Mars is highly lethal to them!
With the arrival of peace, the production capacity of various factories can be reused for civilian use. The expansion of the lunar colonies and Mars colonies has been greatly accelerated, and a large number of factories have sprung up.
After negotiations within the government of the Republic, shipyards and ports in lunar orbit and those in Mars orbit will be transferred to Titan at the price of 100 billion Republic dollars (former Federal currency).
The low price is also because these shipyards and ports already own most of Titan's shares.
The money will be deducted from the government's debt to Titan, because the former federal government has a huge debt of up to five trillion Republic dollars for a large number of warships, space stations and fighter planes built during the war.
The government of the Republic will retain only one civilian shipyard in the orbit of the blue star, while the newly completed shipyard in the asteroid belt will be paid off by black mask international.
At the same time, the mineral mining rights of the moon and Mars were all packaged and sold to Titan mining at the price of one trillion Republic dollars. In the future, no enterprise has the right to mine minerals from Mars and the moon except Titan mining.
Now, of course, the manufacture of spaceships and space mining equipment are monopolized by Titan, and other companies are not able to mine minerals in these places.
In addition to shipyards, the former federal government owned a large number of factories on blue star, the moon and Mars, which were paid off to five consortia except the second world group.
