Chapter 775 (1/2)
Orion cantilever, solar system, Mars.
The Mars in front of us is no longer the desert and lonely appearance of more than ten years ago.
On the planetary orbit, three space elevators run straight through the sky and earth, and three spaceports of different sizes are all under construction or expansion.
Tens of millions of small robots tirelessly carry out the construction instructions, building countless materials into buildings and facilities.
Hundreds of spaceships unload all kinds of construction equipment to the space port, and then transport them to the colonial cities below by space elevator to support the construction. Everything on Mars is changing with each passing day.
Starlit spots, like amber like colonial urban agglomerations, expand outward with the space elevator as the center, igniting the fire of civilization on Mars.
So far, nearly 30 million earth people have completed space migration in the first three large metropolitan areas of Mars, and hundreds of millions of human beings have settled or worked here through virtual reality technology.
The existence of Captain ghost has opened up a stable and safe development environment for the solar system, and virtual reality technology has strongly promoted the global scientific and technological research and development.
Coupled with the explosion of foreign technology and industry, the current earth civilization has gradually developed into a colonial system with the Earth Moon system and Mars as the core and footprints throughout the solar system.
As another important colonial core of the development of earth civilization, Mars has been favored by key resources in recent years. Various merchant ships travel between the Earth Moon system and Mars, transporting raw materials back to the moon, and then supporting Mars construction with various products and equipment.
In the outer space orbit of Mars, you can see not only three busy spaceports and thousands of kilometers of space elevators, but also a huge light column through the sky and earth!
Through the ”Prometheus energy project”, the huge solar energy from the central star has been spared no pains to put on the back of Mars far away from the city group, injecting a lot of energy into the whole planet, accelerating the ”warming up” of Mars.
According to the Mars transformation plan formulated by scientists, with the increase of temperature, the greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide in Mars will increase rapidly, which is conducive to the further formation of water circulation system.
In about a year or two, Mars will be able to spread some improved plant seeds on the surface of Mars, so that Mars can quickly give birth to the initial living planet environment by means of birth and other means.
The next step is to adjust the environment bit by bit, so that Mars will gradually become a second planet suitable for human survival.

”Jerry, I'm homesick.”
Tom, dressed in an outer space walking suit and two legs drooping, sat on the edge of space port 3, looking at the busy scene around him with a melancholy face.
”Bullshit! You were playing mahjong at home half an hour ago
Jerry is checking the data with a terminal. Tom has a look at his words.
Behind them, a large number of small robots are working. The robot army is fully automated, and the engineering efficiency is crushing the traditional construction team. The nearby facilities are changing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Today, with the popularity of modularization and automation, it is no more difficult to build an airport facility than it is to build a base with a mouse in the red police.
As experienced astronauts, Tom and Jerry are one of the few people who need to work in a variety of space environments.
Because spaceport 3 is a new generation of ”technology verification port”, they were sent here for acceptance work and ”living environment test”.
”It's all virtual, virtual! Do you understand? It's totally different from the real feeling! ” Tom yelled at Jerry discontentedly.
”Is it? I remember that the fidelity of the virtual world is close to 99.9%. I ask you, is your visual nerve discovering the distortion of the picture, or is your pain nerve unable to feel the iron fist of love? ”
”Er That's not true. ”
“So？”
”No! Jerry, that's not the problem! Although the picture is very beautiful and the feeling is very real, you don't think the virtual embrace has no temperature. Even kiss has a smell of data. It's just like I'm licking the screen. Can you understand what I mean? ” Tom explained.
Jerry finally put down his data panel and looked Tom up and down seriously for a while, ”are you in love? I remember you just went back to the moon for a vacation last month? ”
”Oh, Jerry! You are so Understand me Tom scratched his helmet.
”I met Myra on the moon. You don't know. She's so charming that she takes my heart away. I feel like I can't leave her. I've decided! I'll propose to her next time I go back! ”
