Maybe it won't be long before Xiao Peng and the technical staff of the space agency will completely belong to Jiang Cheng.
At that time, even if the space agency wants to take these people back, it will still depend on whether they are willing to go back.
This is Jiang Cheng's strategy of poaching people. He will deceive people first and then slowly win over them later.
In this way, Jiang Cheng and Xiao Peng stayed in the laboratory together, concentrating on developing a new type of alien detector.
When people are concentrating, they always feel that time passes very quickly.
More than a month has passed like this, but the research on alien detectors is still in progress.
Jiang Cheng's research progress is now much slower than Jiang Cheng initially expected.
Originally, according to Jiang Cheng's plan, one month should be enough for them to develop it.
As a result, the research and development progress is only more than half-way up to now, and it is far from the time of success.
The progress of this research lagged behind Jiang Cheng's plan, mainly because Jiang Cheng did not expect this research to be so difficult.
Although Jiang Cheng had Xiao as his assistant to help him this time, the research was still very difficult.
The main technical difficulty lies in the miniaturization of the detection instrument, and other aspects are not very difficult.
In particular, the energy aspect of the detector is even simpler. As long as a miniaturized fusion reactor is needed, all energy problems can be solved.
A fusion reactor is enough to supply the detector for a long time, and even a lot of energy is not needed.
After Jiang Cheng used the small fusion reactor, he saved the position of the solar panels and freed up some valuable space for other devices.
But the space that was freed up was still not enough to install all the detection instruments.
Mainly because Jiang Cheng's requirements for this detector were too perfect, that's why Jiang Cheng and the others were trapped.
Otherwise, Jiang Cheng's mineral vein exploration device should be cancelled. It is too difficult to miniaturize this kind of device, because this kind of device takes up too much space.
In the laboratory, Xiao Peng is discussing with Jiang Cheng about the Ruo detector. It seems that the thing that stumps them now is the mineral vein detection device.
This device was newly developed by Jiang Cheng, specifically to detect the distribution of minerals on Mars, so it was added to the detector.
Mineral vein detection devices can emit electromagnetic waves of a special band that scatter to a long distance around.
This kind of electromagnetic wave can penetrate deep into the ground and detect whether there are some minerals there.
Based on the reflected electromagnetic waves, the mineral vein detection device can record the distribution of all mineral veins underground.
This device is very advanced. It can not only detect whether there are mineral veins underground, but also the type and approximate output of the mineral veins.
But this device has a big shortcoming, that is, it is a bit too big. After this device is installed on the detector, there is no place to install other equipment.
It seems that Xiao Peng is now preparing to persuade Jiang Cheng to give up this device, thus saving a lot of space.
No, this time the detector must be equipped with a mineral vein detection device, otherwise we will not be able to obtain the mineral distribution of Mars. My next plan will use this data, otherwise all subsequent plans will be affected.
It seems that Jiang Cheng does not agree with Xiao He's opinion and refuses to give up the mineral vein detection device.
After Jiang Cheng has completed the detection of Mars data this time, he will begin the construction of a Mars base.
It is impossible to transport all the materials needed for construction from the earth, so it is necessary to use local materials.
Especially for some minerals that are simple to process, Jiang Cheng plans to mine them on Mars and then use them in the construction of rocket bases.
This can save Jiang Cheng a lot of transportation space to transport things that must be transported.
You must know that transporting things from the earth to Mars is a very difficult matter.
It costs a lot to transport kilograms of stuff from Earth to Mars.
Even if Jiang Cheng has a relatively cheap rocket like the Kunpeng rocket, he cannot waste transportation resources at will.
If everything for the construction of the base had to be transported from Earth, Jiang Cheng estimated that it would not be enough to transport it for decades.
Therefore, Jiang Chengyi planned to collect local materials on Mars and bring some mining and refining equipment to Mars to carry out some simple mineral mining and processing.
Transporting mining and refining equipment is much more cost-effective than transporting materials in the past. This will allow the Mars base to be self-sufficient, and then there will be no need to transport anything from Earth.
It is precisely because Jiang Cheng has such a plan that he insists on installing a mineral vein detection device for the purpose of building a Mars base in the future.
Unfortunately, this kind of device is too difficult to miniaturize, so they are now in trouble.
Although Jiang Cheng had his own considerations, Xiao Peng still felt that this equipment should be abandoned and the current research progress should be accelerated.
So Xiao Peng continued to persuade Jiang Cheng: "But our current research progress has seriously fallen behind. If we keep getting stuck on this, we don't know how much time will be wasted.
“Perhaps we can carry out the detection work in two steps, first detecting other data on the surface of Mars, and then building a detector specifically for detecting minerals, so that we can solve this problem.
Peng proposed a good solution, which is to temporarily abandon this device and put it on the second detector.
In this way, this problem is perfectly solved, and there is no need to consider the problem of insufficient space for the detector.
After listening to Peng's opinion, Jiang Cheng frowned and said, "This won't work either. Although our Peng I rocket is very fast, it will take nine months to reach Mars.
It would be a waste of time to conduct the detection in two times. I don’t have that much time to wait. I have to complete all the detection activities at once and then immediately start the work of landing on Mars. In fact, this method proposed by Xiao Peng, Jiang Cheng had already thought of this before.
But this method is really a waste of time, and Jiang Cheng is not willing to wait for 9 more months.
He wanted to solve everything at once and didn't want to waste too much time on this matter.
Don't look at the fact that Jiang Cheng's space exploration plan is going very smoothly now, and the rockets have already been developed.
However, the progress of the entire plan is seriously lagging behind. Later, Jiang Cheng will also carry out a Mars landing plan, and then gradually establish a complete Mars base.
After completing the construction of the Mars base, Jiang Cheng is also preparing to launch a Mars colonization plan.
There are still many plans waiting for Jiang Cheng to implement, and Jiang Cheng will have to do a lot of work just to control the entire solar system.
These plans all take a lot of time. If he takes his time, Jiang Cheng doesn't know when he will go.
