Chapter 638 (1/2)
half of the astronauts on Mars will be back soon, and they will return to earth in a rocket after a four month space journey.
When they have a good rest on earth, they will continue to set foot on the rocket to Mars, to replace those who remain on Mars.
Of course, the astronauts on Mars are not so idle. They have a lot of work to do.
The next step is to officially develop Mars, which has been prepared for such a long time. Now we can finally start.
Mars base was built for the purpose of developing Mars, otherwise Yesu spent so much time on Mars.
The first step is to carry out preliminary mining operations on Mars, and then smelt the minerals and transport them back to earth.
Of course, Yesu is going to mine all the precious metals with high prices, otherwise they will not be able to earn the transportation expenses back to the earth.
The second step is to expand the size of the Mars base and increase the number of wayward missions on Mars.
Slowly wait until the Mars base is big enough, and that's the last step.
Finally, Yesu hopes to build a large human settlement on Mars, larger than a city scale, and arrange a lot of human work on it.
If this can be done, it can be said that human beings have begun to immigrate to Mars.
Ye Su's ambition is very big. He can't be satisfied just by developing Mars.
He is going to immigrate to Mars on a large scale to build a second earth.
However, it is still too far away to say that now, what ye Su needs to do is to do a good job in the first step of development.
The first step of development is related to the success or failure of the following steps.
Only by successfully starting mining on Mars and successfully transporting it to earth, can we start the next plan.
The large-scale expansion of the Mars base in the future cannot be done at the present technical level.
With the rocket slowly transport people and equipment materials, it is not known when it will be able to build a city on Mars.
Therefore, if we want to develop Mars on a large scale, we need a new transport vehicle to replace the rocket as a vehicle between the earth and Mars.
When the rocket can no longer meet the needs of Yeosu transportation, it is time for the spaceship to enter the arena.
The volume of the spaceship is much larger than that of the rocket, and the speed is many times faster.
If you have a spaceship, you can't limit Yesu's traffic.
But if Yesu wants to build a spaceship, it needs a rare metal.
Platinum is a necessary material for the construction of spaceships, and it needs a lot of usage. At least, the production on earth can not meet the requirements.
So Yesu paid attention to Mars, hoping to get enough platinum from Mars.
To know the platinum reserves on Mars, the shallow mineral veins are hundreds of times of the earth's, far more abundant than the reserves on earth.
