Chapter 125 New plan half a century later

Although Sai was a little confused at first, he soon understood why Mars, which has the most scarce resources, is the place with the most developed fleet in the solar system.

Because Mars is the closest planet to the Earth, even when the distance between the two planets is the furthest, it is only 400 million kilometers, but when Jupiter is closest to the Earth, it is still 600 million kilometers away.

Therefore, humans will definitely give priority to developing Mars and use it as an advanced base for the bunker plan. However, they have only hibernated for half a century, which is not enough for the four distant Jupiter-like planets to surpass Mars.

Of course, if Say hibernates for another century or two, perhaps the center of humanity will shift to the outer reaches of the solar system, but now, the four Earth-like planets are the center of humanity.

As for the four Jupiter-like planets and the entire outer solar system, they are still relatively desolate and backward places, and their economic level is far inferior to that of the four Earth-like planets.

"By the way, have there been any big changes in human beings in the past half century?" Sai asked.

"Just in time, I'm going to tell you about it." Zhang Beihai then told Sai about the progress of mankind in various aspects in the past half century.

According to Zhang Beihai's description, mankind has made many breakthroughs in the past half century. First of all, with the increase in population, the construction of the economic circle around the solar system has been very smooth, and human footprints have spread all over the solar system.

At the same time, due to technological innovation and continuous improvement in productivity, the cost of the aerospace industry has been significantly reduced, and space tourism has become commonplace.

Connected by electromagnetic acceleration orbits, Jupiter and Saturn have become mankind's fusion fuel depots, while the four terrestrial planets have become mankind's industrial bases, and the asteroid belt mining has also become popular.

Accompanying such projects is the crazy expansion of space cities and space fleets. This is also the reason why Fleet International was born and the bunker plan can be implemented.

Biology has also made considerable progress. Humans have completed genetic sequence testing, and molecular biology has made tremendous progress over a period of time.

As a result, human life span has been extended to 150 years, and agriculture has been completely separated from the land. Crops in this era do not require soil, but nutrient solutions and gamma rays.

"So the genetic programming language was born." The presidential secretary interjected: "Human beings discovered that God turned out to be a programmer, so people from Silicon Valley and Zhongguancun began to get involved in biology."

"Some of them can't even distinguish between inorganic and organic substances, but this does not affect their work in transgenic editing."

"Of course, the development of genetic software is a huge project. Even the most trivial editing requires a professional technical team and large computers."

"Now that humans have understood the function of each gene, have you ever tried gene editing on humans?" Sai suddenly asked.

"No, the current gene editing work is focused on animals and plants, and no professional projects on humans have been launched yet, except of course for the treatment of congenital diseases."

"This is not a technical problem. Gene editing is now a very mature technology, but it is politically impossible to pass it," the presidential secretary explained.

"I understand, let's look at other places first."

Five days later, Mars, Sai City, Solar System Alliance meeting

After visiting Sai City for a few days, Sai announced that she would release a new wall-facer plan. As a wall-facer and the actual leader of the Solar System Fleet, her influence is still amazing.

Therefore, representatives from both worlds quickly arrived on Mars for her wall-facing plan.

Unlike half a century ago, because the distance between planets is far, online meetings will experience extremely long information delays due to the speed of light limit.

In terms of meetings, mankind has ushered in a cultural renaissance and has once again returned to the offline state, that is, representatives from various countries sit in a conference room for meetings.

There are now a total of 8 "agreement countries" between the two countries, 4 of which are members of the original PDC, and the 3 newly added political entities are the three major fleets.

"Ms. Say, welcome to the new era." The representative of the East Asia Federation was the first to express greetings.

Earth International mainly focuses on the Earth-Moon system and does not involve the development of outer space, so there is no conflict of interest with Fleet International, and the relationship between the two parties is okay.

The relationship with the Solar System Fleet is more tense with the other two fleets. They are superpowers in the interstellar era, each eager to gain dominance over the solar system and human civilization.

"Thank you. In a way, it is not difficult to adapt to this era because of the technical barriers created by Sophon." Sai replied.

This is also a reminder to everyone present that the sophons sent by the Trisolarans are still everywhere, and the technology of the Trisolaran civilization still crushes humans.

"Indeed, there has been little progress in basic science so far, and we have no longer maintained the particle collider. However, there is still outstanding progress in applied technology."

"So what's your new plan?" asked the Indian representative.

"Let our civilization produce qualitative progress. I don't mean technological progress, but social, ideological and philosophical progress." Sai said.

"What does it mean to advance civilization...or what kind of progress do you mean?" asked the representative of the Moon Alliance.

Because conflicts once broke out between countries competing for lunar territory, the PDC formed the Lunar Alliance to coordinate the development of the moon by various countries.

Although the Lunar Alliance has its own sovereignty, because it is economically and militarily controlled and is just a puppet of the Earth's major powers, it is generally considered to be part of the Earth International in a broad sense.

"This plan is too ambitious. Even if the Wallfacer talks about it, it sounds like nonsense." A representative of the Solar System Defense Front mocked.

Because the Solar System Defense Front has been competing with the Solar System Fleet for resources on Saturn, the relationship between the two parties is very poor. If it had not been for the Trisolaris Crisis, a war might have broken out between the two parties.

As a rebuttal person, the other party naturally started to curse directly, and the representative of the United Earth Fleet also mocked: "This is an era of democracy, and even the Wallfacers cannot interfere with the development of human civilization."

"Indeed." Sai did not refute, but followed his words: "Transforming the entire civilization is naturally an extremely complicated task. I am only making some preliminary suggestions now."

"What preliminary suggestions can you make?" the representative of the Solar System Defense Front smiled.

"My suggestion is to transform the human species. As we all know, humans are a native species of the earth, and their original evolution was mainly to adapt to the earth's environment."

"Ah?" Everyone present was shocked when they heard this. Everyone could understand this suggestion, so everyone felt incredible.

Originally, they thought Sai, an ancient person's plan, would be too retro, but they didn't expect that she would be so radical and want to directly change the human species!
Chapter completed!
