Chapter 6562 The Price of Humanity

"Father, if Paul goes to Mercury for a stroll first, I'm afraid we will lag far behind other countries in the exploration of the solar system!" Nuwa reminded.

"No hurry, no hurry! There's no hurry in this regard! At present, their speed to Europa, according to the fastest speed currently announced, takes about 540 days! Their speed should be improved. After all, when leaving the earth, they can save a lot of energy, and the acceleration in the universe can avoid the obstruction of the atmosphere. But it will take at least 1 year!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

One year! This speed is already very fast.

You know, it took the Galileo spacecraft 2302 days to fly to Jupiter for exploration, which is equivalent to more than 6 years. Now it has been shortened to 1 year, which is already very fast.

The speed is about 19.8 kilometers per second. That is to say, it has exceeded the third cosmic speed.

What is the third cosmic speed? It is the speed of taking off from the earth to reach 16.7 kilometers per second, which is the speed of escaping the gravitational bondage of the solar system, that is, the third cosmic speed.

Now, the speed of these spacecraft can exceed the third cosmic speed, and it is very normal to take only one year to go to Jupiter. Especially according to their different shapes, the speed is also fast or slow.

The slowest is the Russian space battleship, which has just reached the third cosmic speed. The fastest is naturally the American one, 19.8 kilometers per second!

"Nuwa, it will take them a year to arrive. But can they do anything? I don't think so! Even if they are fully prepared, they are not as fully prepared as my "Earth"! If they want to work for a long time, I think they are more of an adventure this time, to find out the situation. Soon, there will be a second wave of fleets going off!" Lin Feng said with a smile, "Why should we be in a hurry? Just watch, the minerals on the earth will soon rise in price!"

Indeed! If these human countries build space fleets crazily, it will not be enough for the few metal veins on the earth.

This is to say, why has the earth's space exploration been so many years, and I have never heard that it is not expensive, why is it not enough at the beginning?

It's very simple. Most of the previous space explorations were to send some detection satellites to explore. That's how much metal minerals are consumed. Even if the International Space Station is built, it will not cost much.

Because, they are all very small.

But at this moment, with the breakthrough of "gravitational magnetic field technology", the warships they built can break through the gravitational constraints of the earth.

Therefore,

the warships are all built very large. Lin Feng's "Earth" is huge enough, but compared with the warships of these five countries, it is only slightly larger than the warships of RB. It is much smaller in scale and volume than other warships.

Compared with the huge tonnage of Russia, it is much smaller. And after the space battleship is freed from the constraints of weight, the most important thing is protection.

Lin Feng adopted a nearly circular shape, which makes its defense power almost the strongest, but its mobility is also the weakest. Therefore, in terms of protective decks, it can be said that it does not need to be too thick.

However, these warships, in order to pursue mobility, after all, this is a race against time, so naturally they can be thicker. This is not a tank, but a warship over a kilometer. And the thickness of the steel plate, according to the estimated results after Nuwa scanned, is at least several meters thick.

This is incredible. Of course, if it is just this, it will not cause the earth to fall into a metal crisis. The most important thing is that once these warships leave the earth, the metal will be difficult to recycle.

Unless these warships return to the earth, they will leave once they leave, and they cannot be recycled. Unlike the heavy metals on the earth, you can use them now and then recycle them. This is not the case for those in space.

In particular, the subsequent fleets that will follow will inevitably speed up construction. And once they are built, it will not be just one or two. Once the metal veins of other planets that can be used are detected, all fleets will be sent to mine.

After all, resources are everything!

In this case, the human vein resources will inevitably be excavated in the early stage. In some cases, if there is no result in space exploration, the metal vein resources of human beings will soon be exhausted.

In this case, do you think the price of this vein will rise wildly? After all, human beings themselves also need to build, which is an inevitable result of pursuing a better life. Even if you don't pursue a better life, in order to maintain your current life, you also need various mineral resources to maintain a reinforced concrete society like human beings.

Without steel veins, modern human society will collapse.

"Father, what's more serious is that if space exploration encounters a devastating blow, it may lead to the collapse of human society and the fuse of the Third World War!" Nuwa also looked solemn, "Especially Africa, which is controlled by father, will become the target of public criticism!"

Nowadays, Africa is the continent with the most mineral resources in the world and the least mined. And now, Lin Feng's influence in Africa is unparalleled. These resources may fall into Lin Feng's hands sooner or later.

At that time, space resources will be gone, and humans will inevitably continue to explore space as much as possible to strive for benefits. At that time, Africa's mineral resources will become a sweet spot in the eyes of many powerful people.

At this time, friendships and relationships are useless. What's important is interests, and what's important is to survive.

"Yes, I didn't think about this. However, I think this should be the price that humans must pay for space exploration!" Lin Feng said in a deep voice, "Otherwise, if we explore slowly, it will take a long time to succeed. Besides, even if we conceal this kind of thing, can we really conceal it? If I am the only one who has the ability to explore space, these countries will probably skin me alive!"

Assuming this is the case, then these countries will definitely try every means to get the relevant technology of space exploration from Lin Feng, and will never let Lin Feng dominate alone.

If Lin Feng does not share, then there will only be war. And the result of the war is very simple. The best situation is that Lin Feng and various countries will both lose. Of course, this situation is actually very slim. After all, in the face of absolute strength, Lin Feng is not good enough.

Even if Lin Feng can hide in space, is it useful? You can't come back at all, what can you do? ! You can't float in space all your life. What's more, countries can join forces to divide up all of Lin Feng's resources on Earth.

So, Lin Feng must also share. Naturally, humans must also accept the baptism of such a possible catastrophe!

Any growth requires a price!
