Chapter 1,416 Artificial Meat Rich in High-Quality Protein

In addition to some fruits and vegetables in the space farm, some of the protein-rich insects raised there are also growing very gratifyingly.

If these insect experimental projects are successful, they will serve as an important source of high-quality protein for astronauts traveling in space and on alien planets for a long time to come.

Of course, just such insects may have some sensory differences. So Wu Hao and his research team are trying to use the high-quality protein in these insects to make some artificial steaks and simulate the meat texture of poultry and fish.

In this way, both the sensory and taste will be much better.

In addition to this kind of protein steak, Wu Hao and others are also actively researching artificial meat, not only using insects, but also using plants to make vegetarian meat products.

However, the cost of these artificial meat products currently on the market is relatively high, and the taste is still far from the taste of real meat.

Research in this area has always been popular. Although various institutions have launched some artificial meat products, no artificial meat product has yet been recognized by the public.

It is foreseeable that for a long period of time in the future, at least until large-scale alien planet cities or settlements are established, humans will not be able to bring these livestock to alien planets, and there will not be such an environment to provide these animals.

Livestock and poultry.

Therefore, the only way for humans to obtain sources of protein and meat is naturally to rely on regular supplies from the earth. However, if it is to explore and settle on other planets, the distance is too far, let alone Mars, it is the moon, and the cost of periodic supplies from the earth will also be very high.

There is definitely no problem in maintaining a scientific research team of more than a dozen people, but if the number of people is too large, supplies alone will definitely not be enough.

Therefore, in the future, large-scale immigration to alien planets, or settlement of alien planets and space settlements, requires a necessary food supply security system. On the one hand, relying solely on supplies from the earth is not enough and the cost is too high. On the other hand, there are also certain risks.

.

At present, our main ways of entering space are manned spacecraft, space shuttles, and Musk's interstellar spacecraft. No matter which type, there is a certain risk in launching. If we rely on this kind of supply for a long time, once the supplies are transported

If there is a problem with the cargo spacecraft, or the launched transport rocket, the scientific researchers and astronauts who are performing long-term scientific research missions and settling on alien planets may face the risk of food shortages.

Fortunately for the moon, if a launch fails, there is still a chance to continue to make amends.

But for Mars exploration, there is a specific periodic detection window, usually once every two years. Once you miss this window, you may have to wait until the next detection transfer window two years later. In this way, I am afraid that on Mars,

The researchers who settled down and studied really had to make a living by growing potatoes.

Therefore, if humans want to operate on other planets, they must master a mature and reliable food supply system.

There should be no problem with the technology of plant factories, but people cannot rely on plant-based vegetarianism. Although many people now advocate a popular vegetarian diet, long-term vegetarianism is likely to cause a series of health problems, such as malnutrition, endocrine disorders, weight loss, and

There are mental depression and so on.

Although scientists have proposed using these protein-rich insects to solve this problem, they can provide high-quality protein to astronauts and scientific researchers who perform missions in space and on alien planets.

However, with this kind of long-term single taste experience, even astronauts who have received professional training and have extremely high quality may be bored and may even develop some resistance and negative psychology.

So now, in addition to this kind of vegetarian artificial meat, scientists are also studying the use of animal cells to clone and cultivate artificial meat. To put it simply, these meats are 3D printed using animal cells.

In fact, animal meat cells are basically the same. The reason why each location tastes different is mainly due to the arrangement and combination. Therefore, through this 3D printing technology, artificial meat products in different locations of different poultry and livestock can be reproduced.

Of course, this is only a theoretical possibility, and this idea has only been proposed so far. No research institution has yet been able to put in practice and cultivate such meat products.

The scientific research project team under Haoyu Technology is also engaged in related research in this area. The progress is currently going smoothly, but it may take some time to produce results.

This inflatable and expandable space experimental capsule has rich scientific research and experimental results and has been recognized and praised by all parties. Therefore, the second inflatable and expandable space experimental capsule has been quickly put on the agenda and will be built from the end of this year to next year.

Launched at the beginning of the year.

The second inflatable and expandable space experiment capsule has been upgraded and improved on the basis of the first inflatable and expandable space experiment capsule. In addition to the much larger volume and space, its biggest change is the addition of a standard docking port.

If everything goes well by then, this inflatable and expandable space experimental capsule may dock with Wu Hao's Walker manned spacecraft, and may even dock with the space station, become part of the space station, and operate together for a period of time.

The second inflatable and expandable space experimental capsule is expected to have an on-orbit lifespan of six to ten months. Such a long-term operation in orbit will further test the related technologies and technologies of this inflatable and expandable space experiment capsule.

Material reliability.

If its performance is fully verified again, the related technology of this inflatable and expandable space experimental capsule will also be used in a series of subsequent projects. For example, the international commercial scientific research capsule Wu Hao told the media earlier

Space stations, lunar scientific research stations, and the establishment of early settlements, etc.

Of course, the related technologies or follow-up products of this inflatable and expandable space experimental capsule will also be connected to Tiangong and become a real space farm and small vegetable garden for astronauts on the space station.

Provide high-quality fresh vegetables and fruits, as well as fresh insects rich in high-quality protein.

As for another project this year, the lunar surface exploration and patrol vehicle that will be launched on board Wu Hao's new retractable launch vehicle Jianmu-7 in the autumn and land on the moon has also attracted everyone's attention.

After all, this should be regarded as the world's first commercial lunar rover, and this lunar rover will carry out a series of exploration and patrol missions.

The most eye-catching one is naturally the preliminary location and terrain environment survey for subsequent human landings on the moon and the establishment of lunar scientific research stations.

This also means that if this project goes well, the dream of humans returning to the moon and settling on the moon will no longer be far away.
