Chapter 324 Artificial Ecosystem

The "artificial earth" is a project that was built during the construction of the Deep Space.

Humans were not satisfied with the original ecological environment of Noah, so they have been ambitious to make a big change inside...

They want to transform it like the real earth!

According to people's plan, different areas of Noah will have natural environments such as forests, seas, rivers, clouds and rain. These natural environments constitute a complete set of "carbon cycle" and "water cycle".

The huge energy provided by nuclear fusion is used to support the stable operation of these ecosystems.

After such a long period of transformation, forests, rivers, clouds and rain do exist, and they look quite good.

Only... the sea is not perfect.

The water resources of the "artificial sea" are taken from Nix Star, which is equivalent to the water volume of 260 Taihu Lakes. However, this sea looks lifeless, without a ripple.

This is because there is no moon. Without the tidal gravity provided by the moon, the sea will not produce waves, and it can only be so calm...

The so-called "Gold Coast" has never been very beautiful.

Artificial, still not as good as natural.

Everything human beings have learned from nature. But no matter how advanced the technology is, it can never replace nature.

In order to improve this lifeless sea, several young engineers had a flash of inspiration and thought of a good way...

Today happened to be a day off, and there were men and women, as well as a large number of children running and playing on the Gold Coast.

This is a time for leisure and rest, and everyone is very relaxed.

Of course, such relaxation is related to the smooth sailing of the "Deep Space". If something really happened, no one would be in the mood to play.

There is no sun in Noah, and it relies entirely on lights, but the effect of these special lights is similar to that of the sun, and it feels warm on the body.

The most important thing is that there is a huge waterfall hanging from the sky!

It is two thousand meters high, and it makes a huge noise in the distance, finally stirring up the lifeless sea water.

The appearance of a waterfall makes the ocean lively and active.

Many children screamed and rolled around in the waves, and they were very happy.

This is the solution that those young engineers came up with, and the effect... is really good!

"It's a river on the upper floor that changed its course and flowed directly from the ceiling, with a drop of nearly two kilometers."

"It's a good idea. With this waterfall, this place will be much more beautiful."

Yu Yifeng said with a smile. Seeing so many children, he was in a good mood.

He took Yuriko and avoided the busy area and sat down in a secluded corner.

He took out a piece of gauze from his bag and spread it, and poured two glasses of red wine himself.

Yuriko took out some simple breakfast and put it on the gauze one by one.

She looked very happy.

"But this seems to be a temporary solution, not a permanent one... The rest of the place is still calm, with few waves. The only fluctuations are the surface waves."

"Yeah, unless we spend a lot of effort and use large machines to stir the entire seawater, we can imitate the real tide... But it seems unnecessary." Yu Yifeng smiled and said, "If you were asked to design it, what would you do?"

Yuriko thought for a moment and said directly, "We can use the residual heat of the nuclear fusion reactor to heat the ocean and accelerate the water circulation process."

"You can also transform the seabed and use thermodynamics to create certain ocean currents."

Yu Yifeng smiled and said, "If it were me, I would just explode a small-yield nuclear bomb on the seabed, which would also cause big waves."

"You really have no artistic talent!"

The two talked about this topic, and for them, this topic was already commonplace.

After finishing this simple and sweet breakfast quickly, Yu Yifeng patted his stomach and put on a pair of sunglasses.

The upper space of this place was greatly opened up, and the lights were at a very high position, which seemed to be really like the sun.

At this time, Yuriko was more prepared. She found a dry place, spread two bath towels, and then leisurely basked in the "sun".

The light here is never too strong, a bit like the sun in winter, so there is no need to apply sunscreen. The temperature has always been maintained at 28-30 degrees Celsius, which is a little hot, and one piece of clothing is enough.

From this perspective, it is more comfortable than any resort on the earth...

The two of them just lay quietly, listening to the sound of the waterfall and watching the people playing in the distance.

Life is very leisurely...

Yuriko suddenly turned her head and said: "I have a question, why do we have to look for the next Earth? Isn't it good here? For them, the Earth is not necessarily as comfortable as the current Noah."

"Their later generations have never seen the real Earth..."

This is a question. Yu Yifeng was stunned for a long time and replied: "Yes, that's why we want them to see our former hometown. Maybe it's the obsession of our generation, or maybe it's the obsession of the entire human race..."

"Humans... after all, they are rooted in the Earth."

"And I have always believed that man-made things are not as good as natural ones..."

Yuriko was obviously not satisfied with this answer. She shook her head: "Even if we find it, it's not the real Earth... It's just a strange planet."

"The real Earth has been destroyed, and we don't have the ability to restore it..."

Yu Yifeng was stuck. He didn't know how to answer, but he didn't think that human beings' search was wrong.

He even recalled the scene of playing in the real sea when he was young...

The Earth period only occupied a small part of his long life, but it was so important.

This emotion is very strange, and it is difficult to explain why...

Is it a kind of homesickness? Or...life's return to its roots?

"We belong to the Earth, perhaps it is engraved in our genes..." Yu Yifeng said faintly.

Yuriko smiled and asked again: "Let's not talk about this for now... After finding a new Earth, what do you plan to do? Continue to be your leader? This period may be very short, a few years are enough, or it may be very long..."

Yu Yifeng was silent for a long time, he didn't know how to answer.

"After finding a new Earth... maybe I will quit this job... How about we become scientists together?"

"Don't care about the rest of the people? That's not good, they can't do without you..." Yuriko smiled and said. Hearing this answer, she was in a very good mood.

Yu Yifeng hesitated: "Yeah, it seems that it is not possible... Even if we are already an interstellar civilization, our fundamental goal is still to survive and reproduce."

"Our lives are quite good, technology is advanced enough, and we have almost unlimited energy..."

"It seems that there is nothing to worry about."

"According to this, if we have a too comfortable environment, our progress will stop? So... interstellar civilization may also degenerate and fall into the trap of comfort."

He smiled self-deprecatingly: "In cosmic sociology, this is a process of increasing civilization entropy, called the theory of increasing civilization entropy. Haha... This concept was proposed by alien black. When we are poor, we can work hard and endure hardships. When we are rich, what is the reason for hard work?"

Yuriko shook her head and disagreed with Yu Yifeng's point of view: "Your statement may not be correct. For many people now, it is no longer like In the past, just satisfying survival and reproduction was enough. "

"For them, studying science is as important as life... so constantly climbing technology should be a good goal. "

"More precisely... exploring the unknown! Such a philosophical goal should be more motivated than survival and reproduction. Our education system and cultural atmosphere are gradually changing in this direction. "

"Yes... you are right." Yu Yifeng nodded and said: "This is also the place where our civilization has made progress for more than a hundred years."

"But if it becomes more and more difficult to explore science, and even a lifetime of study cannot learn all the knowledge of the predecessors, then... this philosophical goal will gradually become invalid. "

Yuriko whispered: "This period of time is still very far away... isn't it? It is too far away to walk the science tree, thousands of times farther than achieving nuclear fusion..."

The whole topic seemed very strange, but the two of them naturally thought deeply.

After a long time, Yu Yifeng suddenly realized that he was here for vacation, not to think about philosophical problems...

He suddenly sat up from the beach, and it was a bit boring to just lie there.

He looked at the people having fun, then at Yuriko, and suddenly asked curiously: "Why don't you wear a bikini? You should wear something like this in a place like this..."

"Or should we go swimming?"

"No!" Her face was slightly red. How could a serious person like her wear that kind of thing...

Seeing her lying there, she was dressed very conservatively, but Yu Yifeng knew clearly that the curves hidden in her clothes were very well-proportioned.

He suddenly felt a little moved. Since accepting the perfect hormone, the girl has become more beautiful, and her physical fitness is better, so she can...

He quickly took out a simple tent from the bag.

"Why do you take the tent? Why do you bring this kind of thing?" Yuriko asked curiously.

"I want to achieve a genetic goal!"

"What?" She was stunned. After a few seconds, she understood what Yu Yifeng meant, and her skin was immediately red with shame. "But in a place like this..."

"No one knows!" Yu Yifeng set up the tent, called out softly, and dragged her in...

Suddenly realized that today was the time to abuse dogs. . .
