Chapter 88 Space City
The first impression that Starry Sky City gives people is that it is big. This kind of bigness is completely different from those built under the Star Sedna, such as Earth City, Human City, Sun City, etc. As for collective dormitories, it is even more uncomparable.
There is enough planned area so that people can copy the scenery on the earth as much as possible here. There are mountains, forests, grasslands, deserts, rivers, etc., all of which are available. Of course, they are all miniature versions.
The sky here is about 300 meters high, and the sky is also assembled with a huge screen, simulating the blue sky, white clouds, sun and moon, etc. It seems that it is only 300 meters high, but it seems to be infinitely far-reaching.
There are two layers of rollers in the third generation roller base. The first layer of rollers is also a cylinder, but it is only 600 meters in diameter. Those huge screens are installed on the outside of the roller.
As for its inner side, there are various mechanical factories, energy plants, water and air circulation factories, etc. The dock connecting the drum base and the outside world is also there.
Large enough space allows the cargo spacecraft to and from here and the space elevator base very conveniently, and it is very convenient to replenish supplies and transport waste here.
The second layer of roller is used to accommodate people, with a diameter of 1.2 kilometers. This is the "height" of 300 meters in the middle, which is the space for people to live in.
Among those huge screens, the simulated sun, moon, stars, sky, etc. will slowly "rotate" around the inner drum over time. Wherever the sun goes, it will be daytime. On the back is night.
In this way, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
The gravity, which is basically the same as the earth, allows people to live comfortably here. The area is large enough to make everything appear spacious and calm without any sense of cramping. Even people with slightly less vision cannot even see the "curve" of the distant earth.
Ignore the "radian" of the earth, there is almost no difference here from the earth.
This is the scene depicted in film and television, text and other works, which gave birth to the home of human civilization...
Wang Luoyi and Zhao Ying, as well as the remaining 20,000 people who had arrived in Xingkong City, cheered at the same time. News reporters with professional sensitivity quickly took pictures of these scenes and passed them to almost every place where humans exist.
When you see the picture presented in the camera, almost everyone sitting in front of the computer, in front of the TV, or staring at the screen of the mobile phone is in a daze.
"Space bases can still be built like this?"
"No, I have to get the quota for the second residence base, I must get it! Damn, I won't sleep anymore, go overtime!"
At this moment, I don’t know how many people have fallen into deep regrets, regretting that they have not worked hard for the past period of time and have not received enough honors to obtain the qualification to move in to Xingkong City.
At the same time, I don’t know how many people made up their minds at this moment to show their most eye-catching performance in the next time and try their best to win a place.
At this moment, people standing in the starry sky city felt a sense of pride in their hearts.
Because they know that this treatment is achieved by themselves, or their relatives through their contribution to civilization. The qualification to move in Xingkong City is not only a reward, but also a heavy honor.
Now, it's time to enjoy it all...
Here, people not only have spacious and comfortable residences, but also can raise their children here and work here without having to rush around space and the planet.
Looking at the cheerful people, a smile appeared on Zhao Changxing's face.
"In the future, we will build more and larger spacecraft, and our civilization will definitely get better and stronger..."
Time is still passing slowly. Everyone except minors, including Zhao Changxing, is like a toy with a tight spring. As long as they still have energy, they will never stop working.
With the support of a large number of resources from the two planets, Sedna and Deep Sky Star, the human civilization that has completely solved the threat of war at this stage is developing at an astonishing and rapid development.
In the fifth year after Starry Sky City was put into operation, the third space elevator with an average daily transportation of materials of up to 500,000 tons was put into operation almost at the same time as the newly built two electromagnetic rail guns, so the ability to transport materials to space was once again greatly improved. Five years later, Space City No. 2 was also built.
Space City No. 2 is slightly smaller than the Space City numbered 1, that is, the Starry Sky City, and can only accommodate 20,000 people. So 20,000 people who have made outstanding contributions in the past ten years also moved in happily, which once again aroused people's envy.
At this time, more than 20,000 minors finally became adults and supplemented to human society.
And, from now on, a considerable number of adults will be added every year.
At this rate, the population limit of human civilization has reached about 2.2 million people at this moment. Of course, this will take decades to reach.
After that, another new data was placed in front of Zhao Changxing. Zhao Changxing was delighted to see that the first and second batches of 50,000 people who moved to the Space City were generally better than those who lived on the surface of Sedna Star, and their average life expectancy was increased by as much as one year.
You know, before they moved to Space City, they also lived in the low gravity environment of Sedna. It is a bit surprising that their health has improved so much after being moved to Space for ten years.
After obtaining this data, Zhao Changxing immediately made certain adjustments to future key engineering projects and allocated more social resources to the construction of the Space City.
"The right to life and health are the most basic powers of being a part of human civilization. Everyone should be qualified to live in the space city. Then, let's do our best to build the space city."
With the experience of successfully building Space City 1 and 2, the construction of Space City 3 and 4 was immediately put on the agenda and was built one after another in the next five years, followed by Space City 5 and 6...
Zhao Changxing spent 25 years to finally fulfill his original promise when the total population of human civilization, including nearly 500,000 minors living in the Tinder Number circle, the first and second generation roller bases, reached about 1.3 million.
It's already been the 311th year of the New Calendar.
He has built more than 30 largest space cities that can be built under current technological level, which can accommodate about 900,000 people in total, allowing everyone to be qualified to live in the space city.
Zhao Changxing has adopted different design plans for more than 30 space cities. The main style of some space cities is "the sea", so Zhao Changxing has drawn half of the space city area, put more than 20 million tons of water in it, and installed wave machines and other equipment to create a landscape of the sea.
Some space cities have the main style of a mountain peak, so Zhao Changxing built a "mountain range" and installed refrigeration equipment on the top of the mountain to create a landscape of snow-capped mountains.
Of course, these mountains are actually hollow. If they are solid, it would be too heavy for Space City to bear it.
It is relatively simple to plant grasslands and forests. Plant grass and trees.
No matter which style, Zhao Changxing has raised corresponding animals, plants and aquatic organisms in them, striving to be perfect and realistic, and can provide people with the best living and living experience.
Moreover, creating such different styles does not require too much additional resources. Even if the powerful "Moyun Litar" civilization is likely to arrive at any time, consuming some not-so-large resources in exchange for a significant improvement in the living environment, Zhao Changxing believes that this is also worth it.
Under this situation, the traffic between different space cities began to become busy. During holidays, people who want to travel and vacation would take different ferry ships to and from different space cities.
Snow mountains, canyons, grasslands, forests, seasides and other places all left behind people's laughter and joy.
Zhao Changxing has also formulated a new policy for minors who are born through artificial insemination and have no parents, that is, when they become adults, they will get a house in the Space City for free. Of course, the area will not be too large and the location will not be too good.
If you want a better house, just work hard.
There are also some people who have to stay on the surface of Sedna Star for a long time or in other low-gravity environments due to the nature of their work. For these people, Zhao Changxing proposed the concept of "health subsidy" and gave them more contribution points. At the same time, they set a rotation time so that these people can return to the space city to recover their bodies after a period of time.
In the process of fully solving the problem of residence, human civilization has not given up on the development and recovery of science and technology. In fact, the process of building many space cities itself is a training for the human civilization engineering team, and also a process of restoring and improving the shortcomings of science and technology.
While carrying out these projects, factories after factories rose from the ground on the Sedna Star surface. Space elevators connected the earth and space. Spaceships after space were sailing out of the dock and began to fly in space...
The industrial strength of human civilization is also developing rapidly.
Under such circumstances, Zhao Changxing can finally announce that at this moment, the technological level of the new human civilization has finally caught up with the level of the old human civilization that has died in the vast space.
