"Is this the future lunar city?" A guest was deeply shocked when he saw this CG picture and asked involuntarily.
The other people present also nodded when they heard this, and then looked at Wu Hao. They didn't want to question this picture, but they wanted to ask, will the future lunar city really be as spectacular as the picture?
In response, Wu Hao replied with a smile:
"Yes, this is our vision for the future lunar city."
Wu Hao's voice was full of confidence, and he said with a smile: "Although this photo is rendered by CG, it looks very sci-fi and a bit unreal, but in fact, our team of scientists based it on the current situation and what may appear in the near future.
It is designed and built based on advanced technology.”
Having said this, Wu Hao waved his hand in the air in front of everyone, and the CG photo of the lunar city that was originally on the glass was lifted into the air, and after rotating rapidly, it formed a tower in the air.
A three-dimensional city model that is identical to the photo.
This is naked-eye 3D projection!
Seeing this scene, the scene instantly became excited. All the guests stood up and took a closer look.
Mr. Wu, is this your naked-eye 30° projection technology? A boss in red clothes asked.
Wu Hao smiled and nodded and replied: "Yes, this is our naked-eye holographic projection technology.
Hearing Duan Cai's words, the experts, professors, leaders and some corporate CEOs present nodded their heads. If that were the case, such a small glass dome would not be acceptable.
The diameter of each glass dome cannot reach seven hundred meters, or even smaller."
As a result, you are completely transporting those materials and components from under the earth, and cannot directly produce them under the moon."
Wu Hao smiled and nodded and said: "Of course, let me first talk about building such a small city under the moon. Let's talk about building a large city or community of 800,000 people under the earth. The cost is probably a huge amount.
Well, let alone under the moon, the construction cost can be imagined."
In addition, all the materials required are sourced locally, so the construction cost will be slightly reduced."
In fact, just because it cannot print buildings, 3D printing technology cannot print various materials, such as various metal components, glass, plastics, other conforming materials, etc.
Please see, this is the future large-scale lunar city cluster in our design imagination. It is composed of three large glass dome buildings.
…
"I'm afraid the cost of building such a lunar city will be an astronomical figure." After listening to Duan Cai's humble introduction, all the experts at the scene sighed.
Wu Hao pointed to the eight-dimensional city model in the sky and said, "Your construction robots cannot work continuously on the extreme environment of the moon, and their accuracy and efficiency far exceed that of humans. Through your advanced intelligent system, you cannot communicate at all."
The regression of those robots is controlled by an intelligent system and is completely autonomous. The entire process requires human participation, which greatly reduces labor costs.
Robots, using local materials?
Wu Hao continued: "You have accumulated a lot of experience in lunar soil 3D printing technology. You know that the main body of the first phase of the Lunar Surface Scientific Research Station and supporting building facilities were completed using lunar soil 3D printing technology.
Seven hundred meters!
But considering the cost, construction period and difficulty of construction, you think a small one of 700 meters is more appropriate."
The boss's words also quickly aroused the recognition of few guests present. They believed that Wu Hao's words were not deceiving people at all, and were basically possible.
Duan Cai smiled and nodded confidently and replied: "That is also a preliminary conclusion that you came to after calculation.
In my opinion, that is not possible at all, it is simply a fantasy. I am engaged in real estate development, so I naturally know how much money it will cost to build a city of that size, let alone the moon, so in my opinion
That's not possible at all.
"But in that case, anyone can afford to build such a moon city. Not to mention one or two companies, not even a single country can afford it." There was no boss at the scene who immediately interrupted Wu Hao and said with his hands.
In this regard, Wu Hao did not hesitate, but said with a smile: "Of course, if we rely solely on manpower, the cost will be unbearable, so the main construction force of the lunar city will be robots, and the robots will be responsible for the construction.
.Including the processing of all building materials, as well as the initial construction and welding processes.
"The surface of the moon is rich in various useless resources, including metal elements such as aluminum, iron, and titanium, as well as clean energy sources such as helium-3. Through your mining robots and processing equipment, you cannot process those raw materials into building materials on-site.
All kinds of materials needed, such as concrete, glass, steel, etc. In that way, you are only saving a small amount of transportation costs, but you are not increasing your dependence on the earth."
"Can it be built so small?" Some experts and leaders present exclaimed.
"And robotics is also key to your ability to realize that vision."
Yes. Wu Hao nodded and said with a smile, his eyes full of clarity and confidence.
A bubble like that can accommodate 100,000 to 170,000 residents, and eight bubble protective covers like that can form a broken urban system that can accommodate 800,000 residents to live here permanently and be self-sufficient. It cannot be said that it is not the case.
A large lunar immigrant-type city.”
Because the gravity under the moon is about one-eighth that of the earth, it does not mean that the glass protective cover can be built under the earth. In theory, eight times the size can be built under the moon. At present, the smallest one on the earth
This kind of glass dome building is two to eight hundred meters long, so theoretically speaking, you can't build it smaller.
"Each glass dome protective cover is about 700 meters in diameter, 180 meters high, and is composed of about 100,000 pieces of glass.
After hearing Wu Hao's words, everyone present looked surprised.
"Here, you will also use 3D printing technology to build lunar cities."
Not to mention one or two companies like Haoyu Aerospace and Haoyu Technology, more than a dozen more would be enough. Not to mention enterprises, not even the country can certainly afford it.
And whether they are intelligent systems or robots, their biggest advantage over humans is not that they are tireless and can continue to work. And as long as there are not enough resources, they cannot keep working, and the cost is very high."
An expert immediately asked: "He means that all the materials he owns are taken from the moon, and that all construction tasks he owns are completed by robots."
Therefore, you cannot use that technology to print buildings and infrastructure directly on the lunar surface at all, which will slightly reduce the construction speed and efficiency.
