Whether the starfish civilization used this method remains to be verified. After all, humans currently do not have a simple way to obtain neutrino beams with sufficiently high intensity and energy, nor do they know how to effectively control and measure them and turn them into information carriers.
However, a new storm has emerged, and the report's message is quite simple: Want neutrino communication? Then send over the starfish civilization's spacecraft as well.
The top leader placed the report on the table, sighed deeply, and said, "Neutrino communication is a communication method that China cannot refuse, and it's not just helpful for nuclear submarines."
It also plays an irreplaceable role in future space exploration. Radio communication is too easily interfered with by external factors in the space environment. Space looks beautiful, but behind the beauty lies a hell.
Neutrino communication is subject to very little interference, which is good preparation for future travel to the stars. At the very least, in the event of contact with extraterrestrial civilizations, the use of neutrino communication can also subtly enhance humanity's image.
With this in mind, the leader made a decision. Since it was all research anyway, there was a chance that putting the creations of two civilizations together might produce some amazing results.
Chapter 10 Builders of a Great Civilization
The sun rose as usual, shining its light on the hopeful land, and the sleeping city awoke in the dawn.
However, for the technicians working on the Tiangong space station, day and night in the universe are not as clearly defined as they are on Earth.
On the Tiangong space station, more than fifty space welders are piloting iron balls to weld modular components transported from the ground onto the main structure.
Squeak...squeak...the light from the welding torch shone brightly in the dark universe, illuminating the dark universe.
At night, when looking towards the Tiangong space station from the ground, even ordinary civilian telescopes, if the magnification is high enough, can see the welding lights that occasionally flash in space—the torches of civilization.
[Level 3 welder, driver Ma Tu, your workday is almost over. Please prepare for a rest...]
A pleasant AI voice rang out in the cockpit, reminding the welding technician that his work time was about to begin.
The working environment in space is not much better than that in the deep sea. The biggest difference is probably that the psychological pressure of working in space is not as great.
After all, when working in space gets boring, you can just look up and see Earth, our home planet, especially at night when you can see the lights on the ground in the sky. Although it can get a bit tedious after a while, it's much better than the miserable work in the deep sea.
"knew..."
Ma Tu nodded, piloting an iron ball bearing the CNSC logo and a personalized swastika-shaped print below the letters, and flew towards the space station hangar.
This can be considered a perk for Level 3 welders, as they can have their logos painted on their stickers.
Civilian vehicles are not as strictly regulated as military vehicles. If your working hours increase, your benefits will naturally increase. Moreover, painting a logo makes it easier for both parties to visually identify the vehicle.
The rabbit skillfully manipulated the iron ball, and with a series of soft pops, the electric thrusters subtly adjusted the ball's trajectory.
The head-up display in the cockpit shows the iron ball's flight trajectory in real time. This is CNSC's latest scientific research achievement, which can reduce the difficulty for the driver to operate the vehicle.
Driving a vehicle is a skill that takes time and practice; it's all about practice.
As the iron ball slowly approached the main axis of the Tiangong space station, the laser designator began to intervene to assist in the landing and prevent the pilot from crashing into the space station. At the same time, the AI inside the iron ball also has an emergency braking function. Once it detects that it is on the impact trajectory, it will activate the thrust reverser to blow the iron ball away.
If the iron ball is blown away, at least it can be retrieved. But if it crashes into the space station, that would be a huge problem.
After entering the port entry orbit, the iron ball, under the control of AI, entered the automatic port entry procedure and gradually flew towards the spaceport of Tiangong Space Station.
As it drew closer to the space station, the massive main structure blocked out the sunlight, casting shadows over the iron sphere.
The rabbit looked up at the living area connected to the main axis, and no matter how many times it looked at it, it was still somewhat awe-inspiring.
The circular living area is connected to the main shaft through four 100-meter-long connecting channels. At the end of the 100-meter-long channels is a huge circular living area. The motor on the main shaft drives the living area to rotate, relying on centrifugal force to simulate gravity.
Not long ago, the fusion reactor on the space station was installed. The electricity provided by the fusion reactor solved the problems of power supply and hot water heating in the living area. In addition, the Tiangong space station also has a production line for "carbon dioxide/carbon monoxide → starch", which can provide emergency supplies when resources are scarce.
Although that tasteless "nutritional paste" is hard to eat and a disaster for rabbits who love food, sometimes there is no other choice.
During the process of the iron ball entering the port, a White Bird space transport aircraft slowly approached the space station. The White Bird gracefully adjusted its attitude and moved closer to the spaceport on the other side of the space station.
"Wow, it's so beautiful! I wonder what delicious food they brought over this time..."
Rabbits eat wherever they go. Although the Tiangong space station can't be used yet, there's always a way. We can prepare and transport the food from Earth. Eating shredded pork with garlic sauce and braised pork (caramelized sugar) in space would be absolutely fantastic.
Under the control of AI, the iron ball steadily entered the open hangar of the space station.
Compared to sealed hangars, open hangars are easier to enter and exit. However, personnel need to wear adult diapers when working, otherwise changing a spacesuit once would leave them exhausted.
Correspondingly, the staff on the space station work six-hour shifts, instead of the eight-hour shifts on the ground.
Inside the hangar, the lights illuminated the interior, and ground crew members in spacesuits with striking yellow markings were busy guiding the iron ball, which was about to be deployed, out of the hangar.
Ground crew members wearing yellow vests waved two glow sticks to direct the iron ball forward, while magnetic shoes on their spacesuits held them firmly to the ground.
"Slow down...slow down..."
Guided by ground crew, the iron ball flew out of the hangar through the exit, and then, under the pilot's control, flew towards its work station.
After the rabbit docked the iron ball in the hangar's iron ball parking spot, the ground crew went forward to secure it. However, the movements in space were not as smooth as on the ground, and it looked like slow motion.
It took seven or eight minutes for the ground crew to finish securing the iron ball.
A ground crew member stepped forward and patted the outer shell of the iron ball. A familiar voice came from inside the helmet: "Old Ma, you're back?"
“Yes…” Old Ma said while checking the iron ball’s system.
"Okay, you've worked hard. Take a rest now."
"Ok."
After finishing his explanation, Lao Ma conducted a final check on the iron ball's condition. Once he confirmed that there were no problems, he disconnected the life support system from his spacesuit and unbuckled his safety belt.
The inside of the iron sphere is a complete vacuum, and all life support equipment is supplied through an interface connected to the spacesuit.
[Comrade Rabbit, welcome back to Heaven...]
Thank you, builders of the Tiangong space station. Thanks to your hard work, the Tiangong space station's progress has increased by 0.0012%...
Your work will undoubtedly accelerate the development of the Tiangong space station, and every step forward it takes will bear the mark of your contributions...
Now, please take a short break.
The AI assistant reported on the construction progress of the Tiangong space station in a sweet voice. It has to be said that MaTu felt very excited every time she heard the report.
He opened the cockpit of the iron ball and crawled out.
After entering the hangar, Old Ma waved to the ground crew and then floated towards the airtight compartment.
The ground crew said goodbye to Lao Ma and then began checking the condition of the iron ball.
Chapter 11 Living Area
Inside the hangar of the Tiangong space station, ground crew meticulously inspected the condition of the iron ball.
The saying "responsibility is heavier than Mount Tai" is no joke. Accidents are inevitable in space, and the job of ground crew is to minimize the chances of them happening.
Ground crew first inspected the outer shell of the metal ball to see if there were any marks left from impacts with airborne dust or debris...
After a week of thorough inspections, we began examining the iron ball's power and life support systems...
Finally, plug the charging cable into the iron ball's interface and replace the iron ball with a new oxygen tank.
On the other side, Ma Tu, wearing a spacesuit, entered the airtight cabin. Then, the cabin door closed, and pressurization began.
Once the pressure is the same as that of the next airtight chamber, the door opens, and Ma Tu enters the secondary airtight chamber to continue pressurization.
After undergoing two pressurization cycles in the airtight chamber, Matu finally entered the interior of the Tiangong space station.
*Sizzle...* The hatch opened, and Ma Tu, dressed in a spacesuit, entered the changing room.
The bulky spacesuits are not easy to put on and take off, often taking a lot of time. CNSC is developing a new type of spacesuit that is easier to wear.
After removing the spacesuit, Ma Tu took off the adult diaper and placed it in a special container.
Afterwards, these diapers will be packed into boxes and then launched directly into the sun. Rabbits have only two ways of disposing of trash.
Those that can be recovered are transported back to Earth by the White Bird, while those that cannot be recovered are launched directly into the sun.
After all, transporting garbage from the space station to the ground would be very costly and would consume valuable transport capacity. It would be better to send it directly to the "sun," where the intense heat would incinerate all the non-recyclable waste.
As for those countries that complain about sour grapes, their angry denunciation of China will hasten the demise of the sun.
The rabbit just chuckled at this. It's not like making a few sarcastic remarks will hurt you much. If you're so capable, why don't you throw your trash at the sun too!
After changing into a uniform bearing the CNSC logo, Matu entered the space station.
After greeting the other workers, I flew straight to the water station, although the space station does not provide alcoholic beverages.
"Give me a bag of orange juice..."
"Ok."
The vendor handed a sealed bag of orange juice to Ma Tu.
After receiving the orange juice, Ma Tu swiped her wristwatch on the machine to complete the payment.
【-30¥】
This price is considered a bargain, even cheaper than some scenic spots, thanks to the fact that there are multiple ways to transport rabbits.
The Mass Accelerator and the White Bird Space Launcher have reduced the cost of transporting the rabbit to an acceptable level, with at least 5 tons of cargo being delivered to the space station every day.
White Birds transport food and personnel, while the Mass Accelerator is responsible for transporting materials, drinking water, and living supplies that can withstand high G-forces to the space station... After all, the overload of the Mass Accelerator will shake all the good food together.
"Thanks..."
After thanking the vendor, Ma Tu, holding the sealed package of orange juice, flew towards the living area of the space station following the signs.
We soon arrived at the elevator leading to the living area.
As the living area where personnel reside, it has the highest level of security. In addition to having emergency escape devices, the materials used here are also the most robust.
Standing in front of the gate, Ma Tu and her fellow workers who were finishing their shifts adjusted their postures according to the signs.
It's just a gate separating them, but the inside and outside are completely different worlds. There's centrifugal force on the other side of the gate, and if you don't adjust your posture properly, you'll make a lot of mistakes.
The gate to the living area creaked open, and people lined up to enter. The moment they stepped into the elevator, everyone felt a force exerted on them, a faint pull from beneath their feet...
After adjusting my posture inside the elevator, the gate closed, and the elevator ascended towards the living area.
As an elevator in a space station, it doesn't have as many complex structures as elevators on the ground, nor does it use steel cables. Instead, it is driven by Ampere force. Simply put, the elevator is like a projectile suspended in an electromagnetic rail, except that the output force of this electromagnetic rail is very small.
The elevator silently ascended towards the living area, and upon arrival, people disembarked one after another.
After entering the public canteen and having a simple meal of shredded pork with garlic sauce over rice, Ma Tu unscrewed the cap of an orange juice bottle, put it in his mouth, and started sucking on it. The sweet and sour taste of the orange juice made him squint his eyes.
Eating shredded pork with garlic sauce and drinking orange juice in space, MaTu has already figured out the theme of her next video. That's right, MaTu is a content creator with a fairly good following.
He walked easily to his dormitory room, swiped his wristwatch to open the door, and went inside.
Back in their four-person dorm room, the living area of the Tiangong space station was quite nice, maximizing the living space for the staff. Although this increased costs, the staff were in good condition, which led to higher work efficiency.
