Chapter 263, 2.4 Billion Square Kilometers of Land

"Such an environment is very suitable for the birth and evolution of life. As long as there is water, this planet will definitely be a living planet."

Tang Boyuan said categorically that the location of Planet AB is too advantageous. You must know that there is life on Mars with a harsh environment. Tang Boyuan believes that as long as there is water resources on Planet AB, it will definitely be a planet with prosperous life. planet.

"Have any electromagnetic wave signals been detected on the AB star?"

Yu Liang nodded slightly, and then asked Luo Xiaoyao next to him.

"No, we haven't received any electromagnetic signals yet. We guess that even if there is a planet with life here, the local civilization may still be relatively low-level, because apart from the electromagnetic wave signals, our astronomical telescope has not observed any spacecraft. "

Luo Xiaoyao shook his head. Monitoring electromagnetic signals, observing spacecraft, etc. can basically determine the development of civilization in the Centauri galaxy, because once civilization develops, electromagnetic communication technology must be mastered.

"In this case, I am a little worried about whether there are any life planets in the Centauri galaxy."

Gu Feng on the side groaned slightly, looking a little worried.

"Send some detectors over there and we'll find out?"

Tang Boyuan suggested that for the sake of his own safety, he did not launch detectors at the beginning. He was afraid that his existence would be exposed because of these detectors. Now it is basically certain that there is no advanced civilization in the Centauri galaxy, so there is no need for safety. If you are worried, you can safely launch the detector.

"Well, launch probes to the three planets A3, A4, and AB. In addition, the spacecraft will be restarted. Let's fly to the nearest planet AB first."

Yu Liang nodded and began to issue orders. Since he could ensure his own safety, there was no need to be too cautious and he could boldly let go.

Under the work of the powerful anti-gravity power system, the huge "Kyushu" spacecraft began to continuously increase its speed and flew towards the AB star at the Lagrange point. At the same time, various detectors on the spacecraft were free of charge. Generally, it is continuously spread in all directions of the entire galaxy to collect more information about the Centauri Galaxy.

"The Centauri Galaxy is really a very rich galaxy. If nothing else, the number and quality of asteroids, meteorites, etc. in the Kuiper Belt alone are much higher than those in the solar system. You must know that these asteroids are Very important resource.”

As more and more information was collected, Tang Botao's face showed joy. The more resources, the more abundant it would be for future development, and he would not have to worry too much about resource issues.

"It is probably because there are two stars. The strong gravitational pull of the two stars continuously pulls the material in the void of the surrounding universe. In addition, in the early stage of the Centaur Galaxy, the material here should have formed a mass. Stars with several times the mass of the sun, but for some reason, only two stars with the same mass as the sun were formed. "

"So in areas such as the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud Belt, there is still a large amount of material left. These can be said to be the placentas of stars. The combined mass can be comparable to the mass of a sun. Such a huge amount of material is not enough for us to utilize. I know how many years.”

Tang Boyuan talked endlessly about these people, saying that detecting alien galaxies is like treasure hunting, full of infinite passion, and every time a new discovery is made, people are excited.

"Good news, good news. Based on the latest data from the detector we launched to the AB star, we can confirm that AB is a planet with prosperous life."

At this time, Luo Xiaoyao came over with an excited look on his face. Before he arrived, the voice of joy had already been heard. This discovery of the life planet meant that the trip was half successful, and it also meant that Fuyun The Syndicate can establish its own territory here in the Centauri system.

"Very good!"

When everyone heard this, they laughed happily.

"Everyone, take a look, this is the latest information received."

Luo Xiaoyao played the information he just received through his virtual machine.

This is a video, a picture captured by a detector in space. In the picture, a huge planet is quietly suspended in the void, exuding the halo of life. You can clearly see this The blue sky and white clouds on the living planet, grasslands, forests, green spaces, oceans, etc. There is no doubt that this is a living planet comparable to the earth.

"The diameter of AB star is 39,800 kilometers, which is almost three times the diameter of the Earth. Its surface area is calculated to be ten times the surface area of ​​the Earth. The ocean area accounts for 52% of the surface area, and the land area accounts for 48% of the surface area. Calculated, it is 2.4 billion square kilometers!”

"Oh my God!"

Tang Boyuan controlled the computer and began to calculate AB's surface area, land area, etc. based on the information collected so far. When it was concluded that AB planet had a land area of ​​2.4 billion square kilometers, he couldn't help but scream.

"2.4 billion square kilometers of land?"

Everyone's eyes widened when they heard this, with expressions of disbelief.

Everyone present is living in space, so they are very clear about the earth's surface area, land area, etc. The earth's surface area is about 510 million square kilometers, of which the ocean area accounts for 71%, 360 million square kilometers. The total land area is only less than 150 million square kilometers.

Now I heard that there are 2.4 billion square kilometers of land on Planet AB, which is about 5 times the surface area of ​​the Earth and 16 times the land area of ​​the Earth. You can imagine how vast and vast it is.

"2.4 billion square kilometers of land, haha, we, the descendants of Yan and Huang, no longer have to worry about land."

Luo Xiaoyao laughed happily. You know, on Earth, all the land on the Earth has been divided up by countries around the world. Sometimes a small island can cause two countries to fight, but here, Planet AB has 2.4 billion square kilometers of land, which is 16 times the land on Earth.

"If the spacecraft goes faster, I can't help but go to this planet to have a good time."

While Yu Liang ordered the spacecraft to speed up, he stared at the huge blue planet there. Like the Earth, it is very beautiful, emitting a halo that makes people intoxicated, and the beauty is suffocating.

The speed of the spacecraft continued to increase, and it was heading towards the AB star at a speed of several hundred kilometers per second. Everyone on the spacecraft was very excited at this time. It was the first time to go to an alien star system and find such a top-level life planet. This was like a person who tried stock trading for the first time and made a lot of money. Once they tasted the marrow, they naturally became addicted.

Ten days later, the spacecraft was very fast away from the AB star. With the naked eye, they could clearly see this huge planet in the void. At this time, the spacecraft received more and more information, and a probe had landed on the AB star to collect more information.

"Haha, it is indeed a planet without any powerful civilization. The civilization on the AB star is still in the primitive tribal stage. We can conquer it without any effort."

Yu Liang was watching a video. The video was playing the primitive civilization of the indigenous people on this planet. These humanoid indigenous people had ears that grew on their heads and stood up high. They also had hands and feet, two exposed fangs on their mouths, and a thin layer of colorful fluff on their skin.

Some of these hairs are red, some are black, yellow, white, etc. Their adults are only about 1.5 meters tall, very agile and flexible, can use simple stone tools, and have mastered the technology of drilling wood to make fire.

At this time in the video, these primitive indigenous people are gathered around a tall bonfire, grilling meat, singing and dancing to celebrate, and they don’t notice the arrival of aliens at all.

"Primitive indigenous civilization, this AB star is simply a gift from heaven to our descendants of Yan and Huang."

Tang Boyuan also laughed happily. The other party’s primitive indigenous civilization is simply too easy.

"Don't be too happy. Let's take a look at the atmospheric composition of this planet. If there are too many toxic gases in the atmosphere and the oxygen content is too biased, even if the primitive natives are easy to conquer, it will be difficult for us to adapt to the environment on this planet."

"In addition, we have to look at the viruses on this planet. The natives are easy to conquer, but these invisible viruses are difficult to deal with."

Gu Feng is studying biotechnology, and he is not so optimistic at this time. A life planet, the life system on this life planet is completely different from the earth. The microorganisms, viruses, etc. on it must be very deadly to the earthlings, and there must be many new viruses.

These viruses may not have any effect on the indigenous civilization on this planet, because they have lived on this planet for thousands of years and have evolved corresponding antibodies, but the earthlings do not have any antibodies, and this alone is enough to be fatal.

Of course, if the virus on the earth enters this planet, it may cause the extinction of the creatures on this planet, because they have no resistance to the viruses from the earth.

In addition to viruses, the composition of the planet's atmosphere is also a very important factor. For example, oxygen is a very simple factor. If there is too little oxygen, it is difficult for humans to survive. If the oxygen content is too high, it is easy to cause oxygen poisoning. In fact, humans are still very fragile.

When European colonists arrived in America, they spread the smallpox virus to America, which led to the extinction of Native Americans. The once prosperous Indian country collapsed in an instant. Otherwise, it would not be so easy for Europeans to colonize America. The smallpox virus helped the European colonists invisibly and played a very important role.
