A few days have passed, and Venus is still not calm at this time. Although the temperature of Venus has dropped due to the large amount of water vapor in Ceres, and the surface of Venus has begun to form ground again, the strong shock wave is still

As it continues to wander in the atmosphere, the re-formed ground of Venus is also experiencing constant earthquakes. This one is still a mountain, but the next one is flattened to the ground in an instant. It can be said that Venus at this time is more beautiful than those doomsday scenes in the movie.

It's so harsh that no known creature can survive in such an environment.

At the same time, there were still many volcanoes erupting on Venus at this time, and from time to time Venus's magma and thick smoke broke through Venus' thick atmosphere and came into space.

Of course, for the Earth Federation and for humans, everything is under control and there are no surprises. At the same time, the impact point is also very accurate. Venus did not disintegrate due to the collision with Ceres, and Ceres was almost

More than 90% of the material, including the water on Ceres, fell on Venus. This can be seen from the sharp drop in temperature of Venus.

However, although more than 90% of the mass of Ceres fell on Venus this time, the increase in the mass of Venus is actually not much. In fact, it only increased the volume of Venus by 0.4%.

, if you want to make Venus the size of the Earth, you will need more asteroids or other celestial bodies. If you calculate it based on the size of Ceres, then at least more than two thousand of the same size as Ceres will be needed.

As a celestial body, it is possible for Venus to reach the size of the Earth.

Of course, it is impossible to find more than 2,000 asteroids the same size as Ceres in the solar system. After all, even if all the asteroids in the entire asteroid belt are added up, they will only have the mass of about ten or twenty Ceres.

That's all. But fortunately, there are not only asteroids in the solar system, but also other suitable celestial bodies, such as the natural satellites of various planets, especially Jupiter and Saturn. After all, both Jupiter and Saturn have large natural satellites, and

Many of these natural satellites are far away from Ceres, so the Federation and Zhang Yi have already set their sights on the satellites of Jupiter, especially Jupiter's Europa.

Of course, it is not easy to use Europa to hit Venus. After all, the size of Europa is not comparable to that of Ceres. First of all, there are too few movable planetary engines to leave the earth.

You must know that when moving Ceres before, the planetary motivations used by the Federation cost the Federation countless manpower and material resources to create. If you want to move Europa, the planetary motivations needed are only those needed to move Ceres before.

Several times or even dozens of times the number of planetary motors is enough. However, the total number of planetary motors in the Federation is now less than ten. Therefore, if you want to move Europa, you must create more and larger planetary motors.

Just fine.

Although the current Earth Federation is no longer short of resources in general, this is only relatively speaking. In fact, humans do not have many resources, especially those rare strategic elements. In addition, even with the previous

Commonly used materials such as steel are actually only used by the Federation now. If you want to manufacture planetary engines on a large scale, the existing steel reserves of the Federation are far from enough.

However, if you want to move Europa, the number of planetary motors required is very large, at least a thousand or more.

At this moment, the door to his office was pushed open, and Shi Haiming, deputy commander-in-chief of the Federal Space Command, walked in. Seeing Zhang Yi sitting there thinking about something, he asked: "Mr. Zhang! With a frown on his face,

What are you thinking about? I think that the Venus transformation plan has been successfully implemented, and the first step of the plan has been completed perfectly. Next, I will prepare the second step of the plan, and the federal funding is now very smooth. Mr. Zhang, what else do you have?

So worried?”

"Deputy Commander Shi, I'm not worried about funding. After all, this is not the same time as before. What I'm worried about now is the problem of creating planets and motivations. Now we have a total of remaining planetary motivations plus the remaining...

The number of planetary motors manufactured is less than 50 units, but the planetary motors required to drive Jupiter 2 need at least several thousand units. Coupled with our follow-up plans in the future, the number of planetary motors required will be even larger.

.

Of course, in terms of production capacity, I think with the current scale of our Colorful Stone Group, we can definitely meet our needs. However, the raw materials required to manufacture planetary engines are very huge. After all, mobile planetary engines are not ordinary spacecrafts.

, Since the strength and structure of planetary engines are far greater than that of ordinary spaceships or even space battleships, the raw materials required to manufacture a planetary engine are more than ten times or even several times more than those required to manufacture ordinary spaceships or space battleships.

ten times.

Not to mention other things, take the most common spacecraft manufacturing material, special steel, as an example. Although the size of a planetary motor is equivalent to that of a medium-sized spacecraft, the materials required to manufacture a planetary motor are far greater than that of a large spacecraft.

The materials required, so once planetary engines begin to be manufactured on a large scale, our Earth Alliance's steel smelting capabilities and iron ore mining capabilities will simply not be able to meet our needs, so we must find ways to develop more

Various metal minerals, including iron ore, copper ore, aluminum ore, etc.," Zhang Yi said.

"What? There is a problem with the materials. How is it possible? You know, even before the war between the fleets of human civilization and alien civilization, our human federation vigorously produced space battleships, and there seemed to be no problems in this regard. And now we and

The war between alien civilizations has long ended, and at the same time, our human federation has begun large-scale mining of various minerals on the moon and Mars, but you told me that there is a problem with the materials?" Shi Haiming said somewhat depressed.

"Deputy Commander Shi, before the war with alien civilizations, the reason why we were able to mass-produce various types of spacecraft without resource problems is because at that time our human civilization had already entered an all-round emergency.

In the mobilization state, all resources are tilted toward the military, so we have not had this problem. Now that we have defeated the alien civilization's fleet, the federal mobilization transition for total war has naturally been cancelled. In addition, now
