Chapter 1584 Tiangong City
[All citizens of Tiangong City, welcome Jiang Dong to guide...]
Originally, Hong Zewei was preparing to pull up such a banner on the synchronous orbiting space station. However, in the end, it was felt that it was a bit cheesy, so it was changed to launch electronic fireworks at the suggestion of other officials of Tiangong City. .
In this way, under the warm welcome of Tiangong City, two seagull-class starships entered Hong Kong one after another.
Entering the synchronous orbital space elevator through the gangway, Jiang Chen saw Hong Zewei greeted him and the ministers of various departments of Tiangong City.
"Long time no see, how? Is life still accustomed to this side?" After the handshake, Jiang Chen smiled and patted Hong Zewei's shoulder and asked with a relaxed tone.
"Before, I was not used to all kinds of things. Now I am not happy with it." Hong Zewei smiled heartily.
"Oh?"
"Now the city of Tiangong is no longer the same, and you will see it later."
"That will be troublesome for a while, take me to visit." Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"I don't dare to act, it is my pleasure to serve you." Hong Zewei said with a smile.
Officers of the Earth Defense Alliance will take a break from the space station to replenish fuel, fresh water, liquid oxygen, food and other stocks before setting off for the front line of the solar system. At the entrance of the space elevator, the captain said goodbye. Jiang Chen took Lilith to the orbital module leading to the surface.
Standing next to Jiang Chen, Hong Zewei enthusiastically introduced him to the status quo of Tiangong City and everything on Mars.
I have to say that the scenery here is really beautiful.
Take the rail elevator and slowly descend, and the view of the small half of the planet is unobstructed. There is no barrier to the clouds, from the desert directly below to the hills of the horizon, the endless yellow sand is like a sea of flames.
An almost straight railroad track extends from below the space elevator to Tiangong City, hundreds of kilometers away. The orange shield is propped up above the city like a semi-curved umbrella. The gravitational barrier blocks most of the harmful rays and the meteorites that fall from the sky.
A pipe structure covered by graphene materials is reciprocated between buildings in Tiangong City. According to Hong Zewei, that is the road to Tiangong City and the “blood vessel” of the city. Cables for transmitting electricity and pipes for conveying fresh water, as well as vents for air circulation, are based on these tubular roads, from the water purification plant, nuclear fusion power station, ecological farm, gas distribution station, etc. Living unit.
Not only that, but on the outside of Tiangong City, there is also a “green belt”. Red hyphae shaped like coral and genetically modified trees surround Tiangong City, converting rich carbon dioxide resources into oxygen, and producing a non-addictive drink that can bring happiness to people. One of the specialties of Tiangong City. A curved path lingers in this ring-shaped green belt. According to Hong Zewei, it is one of the most popular tourist attractions and the most popular park for locals.
Standing on the rail elevator overlooking it, through the electronic telescope in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, the panoramic view of Tiangong City is complete.
Efficient, environmentally friendly, prosperous and with unlimited potential.
Although he has not yet entered the city, Jiang Chen has already given such an evaluation.
Although at present, the output value of Tiangong City is far less than the Guanghan City, which shoulders half of the earth's electricity consumption, but in the long run, the future of this city will be maintained with the future of the entire earth civilization.
The population capacity of Guanghan City is limited. The high cost of living on the moon, the frequent meteorite impact, and the barren climate and ecological environment are destined to become a large mining area or tourist attraction, but not a comprehensive aspect. , a city that digests excess population.
Looking away from Tiangong City, Jiang Chen looked at the distant scenery.
When his sight fell on the horizon, the fire-red platform that rose from the ground could not help but ask.
"what is that."
"...Olympus volcano, the largest volcano in the entire solar system! It is also the largest tourist attraction in the city of Tiangong! Last year we set up an outpost there, and now it has become the most famous commercial street in Tiangong. Recently We are considering setting up that piece as a tourist special zone." Hong Zewei replied with a smile.
The Olympus volcano on Mars is by far the largest known volcano in the solar system. Its **** is gentle, standing on a gentle sand dune, like a huge shield. The bottom of the volcano is six hundred kilometers in diameter, and the bottom area is more than the sum of the British territory. The diameter of the crater reaches 80 kilometers, which is more than enough for two Wanghai markets.
The volcano is more than 27 kilometers high and has an average height of 22 kilometers. Although it does not feel its height on the space elevator, it is actually three times the height of Mount Everest on Earth! In comparison, the Hawaiian Mauna Loa volcano is in front of it, like an ant under the elephant's feet.
"Is it? I have to get a chance when I have a chance." Jiang Chen said with a smile.
At this time, Lilith pulled the sleeves of Jiang Chen in the back.
Feeling the action behind him, Jiang Chen couldn't help but turn his head and looked at Lilith, smiling and asked.
"What's wrong? Do you want to go there and see it?"
Lilith shook her head and pointed her facelessly at the floor window.
Looking in the direction of Lilith's finger, Jiang Chen did not see anything, and could not help but look at her strangely.
"Miss Lilith pointed in the direction of Sventovit City, but their settlements are small, and most of the structures are built underground. It is difficult to see directly from here..." Hong Zewei immediately explained to Jiang Chen, while The heart is secretly surprised, this little girl's vision is too bad.
Is it a bionic electronic eye?
It is said that a special force in the Star Ring trade will be equipped with this kind of thing. At the same time as the function of ordinary glasses, this kind of electronic eye also has the ability of super-far vision and battlefield analysis, ballistic calculation and so on. There are rumors that soldiers installing bionic electronic eyes will be incorporated into special forces, registered, the original eyes will be frozen, and the bionic electronic eyes will be removed when they are retired.
Of course, these are rumors, and at this level, he has only heard of it.
Hong Zewei wants to think that this is possible, otherwise it is difficult to explain why Jiang Chen did not bring one bodyguard, but only followed a little girl who looked like no deterrent.
"Sventovit City?" The electronic telescope was pointed at the direction Lilith pointed. Jiang Chen adjusted the magnification of the telescope and picked up the left eye. "What's there?"
"They are transporting things to the space elevator."
"Any questions?"
"Nothing." Lilith shook her head and said with a blank expression. "It just feels a bit strange."
