The Return of the Black Technology of Immortal World

But it doesn’t matter, the lunar base has existed for a long time, and there is enough time to verify these materials.

At the same time, we must not forget the influence of spiritual energy on materials. It is still unknown whether the performance of pure iron will increase or decrease in the state of spiritual energy.

After all, in the prehistoric times, there was a material like black iron. It can be said that its strength and toughness exceed the various alloy steels on Blue Star.

Dark iron is also an iron element and is relatively pure. It is even extracted from ordinary iron. The only thing I don't know is whether the iron in it is an isotope of iron.

In fact, Yang Qing and the others have a natural advantage in materials science. Whether it is Xiaoai's spiritual consciousness or Yang Qing's spiritual consciousness, they can directly see through the atomic arrangement in the material. Unlike on Blue Star, which requires an electron microscope or It is a tunnel scanning microscope that allows viewing in an indirect way.

So as long as they succeed once, they can completely copy the material.

Yang Qing followed the car all the way and flew back towards the base.

The car drove in through the dedicated freight channel, and he walked into the base from the isolation cabin.

The negative pressure isolation cabin washed his body with the wind as usual, and combined with the cleaning talisman array, it can ensure that Yang Qing's spacesuit will not bring in any pollutants.

As an environment that has not been developed for billions of years, although it is a restricted area for life, in addition to the sharp appearance of various lunar dust, inhalation of the lungs will cause asbestos-like harm, but also because of the radioactivity in these things. There are a lot of impurities.

Cosmic rays hit the moon's surface all the time. Almost every moment, elements that were originally non-radioactive are converted into radioactive isotopes.

Therefore, although there are not many natural radioactive elements like uranium and plutonium in the lunar soil, those elements ranked at the top of the periodic table have very short half-lives even after being converted into radioactive isotopes. However, because the base number is sufficient, they can be used almost every day. At every moment, elements are decaying and emitting various rays.

Although these rays may not have much impact on the human body, they pose a great threat to precision instruments, so they must not be placed in the base.

Yang Qing waited until the dust on the spacesuit was completely washed away, and even the air in the isolation cabin was changed, then he took off the spacesuit, put it in a special storage box, and sealed it from another Open the door and walk into the base.

"Xiao Ai, quickly check what ingredients are in that pile of materials?"

Yang Qing walked into the base and started communicating with Xiao Ai.

"The truck has been unloaded and the inspection process has begun."

Xiao Ai replied that for material processing, complete procedures have been set up long ago, and Yang Qing's reminder is not needed at all.

"The results came out. The main components are plagioclase and crystalline salt, accounting for about 30%. Kripite accounts for 20%, leaving 10% iron oxide and 10% alumina. Five, almost three percent titanium dioxide, and the rest is similar to granite.”

Under Xiao Ai's spiritual consciousness, there is basically no secret at all. The materials compressed into blocks are instantly broken up and arranged into a thin layer, which can be distinguished by Xiao Ai.

Although there are some doubts about manned landing on the moon, according to the strength of the Americans, there is still no problem in getting some lunar soil from the moon. Xiao Ai found the long-cherished lunar soil data from the United States Aeronautics and Space Administration, also known as NASA. , basically consistent with what they waited for.

The mineral content in these lunar soils is obviously different from expected, especially when the role of iron is limited and titanium is urgently needed, the content of titanium is not satisfactory.

"Master, don't worry. During the process of cleaning up the lunar soil, the engineering vehicle has discovered a large-scale elemental iron mine and a rutile mine. It seems that there are quite a lot of reserves!"

Seeing Yang Qing's frown, Xiao Ai said hurriedly.

"Really? Show me where it is?"

Yang Qing didn't care at all about Xiaoai's concealment and asked enthusiastically.

Xiao Ai did something. From the perspective of the low engineering vehicle, a large piece of the surface was peeled off. The layer eroded by cosmic rays exposed the silver-white metal underneath, which was mottled with various rocks. , like a hill.

Regardless of how these elemental irons were formed, whether it was volcanic eruptions, high temperatures directly stripping away other elements inside, or something else, iron ore with a content of at least more than 90% has never appeared on Blue Star.

The camera turned again, and a piece of reddish-brown ore suddenly appeared in front of the eyes near the iron mine. It looked extremely abrupt on the mainly black, white and gray moon surface.

This is rutile. Its main component is titanium dioxide, with a content of more than 90%. It belongs to the tetragonal crystal system. After the moon dust on the surface is cleaned, the broken tetragonal crystal appears in the lens.

With rutile, Yang Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief. This thing can still maintain a good strength at low temperatures. It can be regarded as a substitute for steel. At least until the base finds a way to maintain the strength of steel at low temperatures, it is still difficult. Replacement.

Even on an airless planet like the moon, it is difficult for titanium to appear in the form of a simple substance. After all, the chemical properties of titanium are relatively active. Even if a simple substance appears, in most cases, it will still be used as a reducing agent to reduce iron and copper. Metals, so metals such as iron and copper are often seen in rutile.

"Master, I need you to do one more favor."

While Yang Qing was staring at the rutile and wondering how to mine it, Xiao Ai's voice came over.

"What's the deal?"

"I have designed a large-scale shielding magnetic field, and I need you to set it up."

"Okay, I understand. Send me the design."

Yang Qing knew immediately what this was for. After setting up a shielding magnetic field, communications near the base were basically guaranteed.

Following Yang Qing's words, a message was transmitted to Yang Qing's mind.

The brain is the foundation of a monk, and only the two of them trust each other enough to transmit information to each other.

The shielding magnetic field designed by Xiao Ai is mainly composed of four towers with a height of about 500 meters. On the left and right sides, there are two hills with a height of about 800 meters. The magnetic field generator can be installed directly without the assistance of the towers. That's it.

But the other two sides need to erect high towers to cooperate with the other two sides.

Their coverage area is as high as about 10,000 square kilometers. Only with this area can the communication within the 400 square kilometers near the base be guaranteed to be absolutely stable without any interference.

Although there is no wind in the lunar environment, moonquakes will not cause much harm, but if you want to successfully erect the tower, you still need Yang Qing's help.
