How do people live on the moon?

From/kloc-0 to July 20th, 969, the American Apollo spacecraft carried astronauts to the moon, which is a human dream. Since then, astronomers have gradually unveiled the mystery of the Moon Palace, intending to build it into the eighth continent for human existence. At present, the developed countries, led by the United States and Japan, are gradually solving the difficulties they will encounter in living on the moon in the future.

fresh water

The surface of the moon is powdery soil, some rocks and ridges, but it lacks water. According to the investigation, the moon is rich in iron oxide ore. American astronauts believe that burning these oxidized iron ores in an iron furnace can release a large amount of oxygen, and then use a transport spacecraft to collect liquid hydrogen from space and mix it with it, so that water will keep coming. It is said that the American space department will build a melting furnace relying on solar energy on the moon, and it is planned to provide oxygen from 20 10. The initial annual output is about 1 ton, and it will be expanded to 200 tons of liquid oxygen in the future.

explain

On the moon, there are 360 hours per day and night (15 days). Experts believe that night lighting can also generate electricity just like on the earth. When studying the main components of lunar soil, the nuclear engineer at the University of Wisconsin in the United States was surprised to find a gaseous substance called "Helium -3", which almost does not exist on the earth. Scientists believe that "Helium -3" is an ideal raw material for nuclear reaction. At present, the nuclear polymerization reactor uses deuterium (heavy hydrogen) as raw material, and the energy generated by "helium -3" is much greater than deuterium, and the waste radiation generated by the reactor is extremely low, so it can be buried in shallow layers and will not pollute the environment. It is estimated that by 20 15, the first helium -3 collector will be built on the surface of the moon. It is estimated that all the "helium -3" stored on the moon will be collected to generate electricity, which is about 500,000 times of the current total electricity consumption in the United States.

food

Can plants and animal foods eaten by human beings survive on the moon for human consumption? So far, scientists have successfully cultivated 100 kinds of plants in space, including wheat, barley, corn, oats, soybeans, cucumbers, tomatoes, tobacco, green peppers, radishes, beets and cotton. Experiments show that many plants can grow on the moon, but under the condition of weightlessness on the moon, their germination rate is higher, their growth is faster and their harvest time is earlier. Biologists have also done weightless experiments on animals in space. The results show that Drosophila can mate, lay eggs and reproduce smoothly as on earth. 60 quail eggs sent to the spacecraft can also hatch "space quail"; Fish eggs that have been sailing on the spacecraft for 59 days can still hatch fry; Male and female mice mated in space and returned to earth to successfully give birth to "space mice". Russian biologists said: "Experiments show that weightlessness cannot stop the birth of new life. If the whole family moves into orbit and works and survives on the moon for a long time, the cosmic child will also be born. "

land on the moon

The distance between the moon and the earth is 384400 kilometers. Obviously, it is not easy to transport the facilities of human development directly from the ground to the moon, so experts try to build a space station between the earth and the moon. 1984, the US government allocated 1 1000 billion US dollars to build a space station in an orbit more than 3,500 kilometers from the Earth. As a transit station for landing on the moon, it will continuously launch power stations, houses and other facilities to the moon.

As for how humans go to live on the moon on the eighth continent, scientists believe that it is extremely expensive for adults to transport it to the moon. The most effective way is to use test-tube babies to increase the population of the moon. These test-tube people have no worries about their families living on the moon.

city

Scientists are excited to say that in the near future, mankind will build the moon into a modern living area. Living on the moon, you can eat fresh food and have lighting and electricity. Even more exciting, Japanese scientists announced that they had designed a plan to build a city on the moon. It is a large number of small cosmic houses distributed on the huge crater of the moon, just like small golden balls, surrounded by spiral buildings of giant hotels extending upward, which can accommodate 65,438+10,000 people to live comfortably. It is said that this charming "Moon City" is expected to be built on the moon in 2050.
