587: This is impossible!
Looking at the scene in front of them.
Wang Mian was slightly shocked. This was already equivalent to a construction site!
And it was a completely automated construction site!
He didn't expect that his country already had such a scene on the Moon. At this rate, in a few more years, wouldn't the entire Moon be filled with Dragon Country buildings?
He was afraid it wouldn't be long before the Moon became a direct-controlled municipality of Dragon Country!
Thinking of this, Wang Mian's expression turned slightly strange.
"This is the construction base for our Guanghan Palace Special Zone! It's currently under construction. When we come to the Moon, we usually stay for about ten days.
During these ten days, we mainly live inside the spacecraft, and our work objective is to calibrate the accuracy of the engineering machinery.
Then we check the construction progress of the engineering machinery, and assemble and calibrate the engineering machinery we brought from Earth.
Besides that, we also need to check on the progress of the helium-3 mining, and then have the lunar rover continue digging deeper."
Xie Yang roughly explained to the three Deep Space Technology astronauts in front of him.
Although they were employees of Deep Space Technology, their original mission on the Moon was to help the company make money.
For example, within the planned area, Deep Space Technology's two hotels and some other commercial facilities all belonged to Deep Space Technology.
Also, regarding the helium-3 mine, Deep Space Technology also held the majority stake.
After all, the spacecraft research and development were all done by Deep Space Technology. The Dragon Country government itself was able to enjoy these things only through cooperation with Deep Space Technology.
Otherwise, Deep Space Technology could complete the current Moon mission on its own. Therefore, Dragon Country gave Deep Space Technology almost all the benefits on the Moon.
For the helium-3 mine on the Moon, Deep Space Technology held a 90% stake, while the Dragon Country government only held a symbolic 10% stake.
However, all the facilities on the Moon had not yet been completely built.
Wang Mian and the others naturally could only be assigned work like the other scientific research team members. Otherwise, it would be impossible to directly station themselves on the Moon.
Nothing was built yet, where would they live!
"Understood!"
Wang Mian and the others all nodded.
Before boarding the spacecraft, they had already received instructions from Guo Hao and Zhou Ming. On the spacecraft and on the Moon, they must listen to Xie Yang and Zhou Ming in everything!
Soon, they began to enter their work state...
Guo Hao wasn't very concerned about matters on the Moon. After all, he had been to the Moon more than a dozen times, and it could be said that all the rules were already very well-established.
Even though Wang Mian and these people were newcomers, they had taken classes for over half a year, and there were specific rules and regulations, so it was impossible for anything to go wrong.
Guo Hao didn't need to worry about these things.
During this time, he was mainly researching the metal dug out from underground.
A 3D printer, nanoscale!
The difficulty of building this thing was even greater than Guo Hao had imagined, even though Zhou Ming had found the top experts in this field.
He sent Guo Hao's requirements to that expert, but manufacturing it was still fraught with difficulties.
That expert contacted Guo Hao many times, but they still hadn't managed to manufacture it.
The project was stuck.
This also made Guo Hao feel helpless.
Sometimes it really was like this. Even though Guo Hao had calculated the material's manufacturing method using Mathematics.
But when it came to the specific process, the difficulty would suddenly skyrocket.
The difficulty of this process thing was still a bit too high.
Although Guo Hao's mechanical engineering had also reached the proficient level, facing this kind of instrument, it still wasn't quite enough.
The difficulty was too high!
Thinking of this, Guo Hao sighed slightly.
He could only slowly work on it.
Besides researching the metal, Guo Hao's mind was still focused on other industrial production.
In addition to that, there was the excavation of the opening.
That place had already consumed too much too much funding, manpower, and material resources.
It took about a month.
The opening was expanded to about three times its previous size.
The cost was huge!
A pit over 34,000 meters deep.
The walls of the opening were specially reinforced, otherwise, if it collapsed, that would be a big problem.
The current opening was already very large, but at this time, people still couldn't go down because it was simply too deep.
In such a deep place, even without magma, it was already very hot. If they encountered any problems, rescue would be very difficult to reach at all.
It was basically a death trap.
Therefore, at this depth, robots were generally used to carry out tasks.
Guo Hao stood in front of this huge opening. The high-strength carbon nanofiber rope next to him had already been lowered, and along with it, naturally, were some industrial robots.
He couldn't help but look at this rope a few more times.
This thing was what he had previously wanted to use to build a space elevator, the high-strength carbon fiber material blueprint extracted from the System.
It was originally meant to go into space, but unexpectedly, it had come underground first. It was truly lamentable.
Guo Hao's expression was slightly strange.
However, there was nothing wrong with this rope.
Over 30,000 meters underground, the temperature changes were also very extreme. Ordinary ropes, including even steel ropes, after reaching over 30,000 meters...
...were very likely to start breaking due to even a slight tremor!
Causing unpredictable consequences!
But high-strength carbon fiber material would not have this problem at all at this distance. It could be said to be a piece of cake!
The engineering robots were lowered into the cave one by one along the rope.
"We have a picture!"
Following the exclamation of someone next to him, Guo Hao also looked over in the direction of the sound.
On a liquid crystal display screen next to him, a picture of the underground cave had already appeared.
This was a picture captured by a drone that had been sent down earlier.
At this time, the engineering robot had reached the bottom, and its powerful drill began excavating the surrounding rock layers!
Through the liquid crystal display screen, everyone could see the metal underground, shimmering with silver light, embedded in the rock layers. It looked somewhat incredible.
After all, metal that could be embedded in such deep rock layers must be at least hundreds of millions of years old. After so many years, it could still shimmer with silver light.
From any perspective, it was already incredible enough!
Even more incredible was, how big was this thing?
The engineering robot continuously excavated the rock layers, constantly peeling away the rock layers around the metal.
Some metal fragments next to it were collected.
But gradually, everyone began to see the full appearance of this thing.
As the rock layers were continuously peeled away, looking deeper, this thing was truly huge!
Guo Hao began to worry. Even with the enlarged opening, would it still be impossible to retrieve this thing?
Just as Guo Hao was worrying.
Suddenly, there was a commotion among the surrounding crowd.
"This is impossible????"
"What did I see????"
At this moment, exclamations came from the crowd. Guo Hao quickly raised his head and saw what appeared on the liquid crystal display screen!
