Chapter 403

"These taps are very clever. Can they launch satellites instead?"

"Yes, that's basically the terms of the first batch. They chose to use the first trading points and let us launch satellites instead. Other contents are still being discussed slowly. "

Looking at the trading requirements of Taipu civilization, Zhang Yuan agreed: "it's no problem. The satellite is developed by themselves. We've just made a trip and paid a small price."

“…… However, in a few decades, these launched satellites will be scrapped. If they still don't develop high thrust rockets, they will not be able to upgrade. We'll only stay here for three or five years, and then we'll leave this star field, leaving them alone. "

"There's no way It's already very good. " "If they can enjoy the satellite dividend for decades, their world should change a lot and they will pay more attention to this technology," said a member of Parliament nearby. With satellites, the communication of the whole planet will be more smooth, and the huge planet will be reduced to a world village. "

"In theory, as long as a civilization has a little foresight, it will pay close attention to the study during this period of time. Otherwise, when the time comes, a large number of satellites will suddenly be unable to use, and people who are used to satellite technology will have to revolt. "

Of course, there is no need for mankind to worry too much about the future development of the TAPP civilization.

Human beings are human beings, and TAPP civilization is TAPP civilization. There is no need to worry about other people's internal affairs. The "limited help" Ordinance has basically been completed.

The human race of "running errands on behalf of others" has successfully brought in the historical process of civilization and a large amount of biological data about the native planet, which is also a sure bargain.

Otherwise, it will be very difficult for such a little scientific research robot to test the whole planet.

The historical data and biological data of TEP are also the focus of this scientific conference, especially the traces of enlightenment civilization. People have found some clues. This is even more exciting.

A scientist came to the stage. He was the moderator of the meeting, Professor rokley.

First of all, the scientist showed a picture of the native creatures on the planet TEP, including fish, birds and reptiles. In fact, the classification of life on earth is not suitable. But for the sake of understanding, it's still named like this.

"We have to start from the beginning about the traces of the enlightener."

“…… Because of the high gravity of the planet, all the creatures here have evolved strong muscles and hard bones. "

Most animals have very high bone density. Due to the unique hollow structure inside the bones, the overall mass is not too large. This is also the most amazing point for biologists.

“…… On this planet, we should not only have enough strength to jump and run, but also evolve to be light enough So many creatures, from the perspective of muscle structure, are slim and slender. The proportion of muscle is far greater than that of fat, and they have strong explosive power. "

There are other creatures that look bloated, but they are not.

“…… It is because their outer skin has a thick layer of cuticle, which is similar to foam in the cuticle structure. It is large in size and small in quality. It can effectively buffer the injury caused by falling, not easily fracture, or visceral damage.

"The taps look fat, but they're actually puffy, and they're not big."

There are also some organisms that have evolved exoskeletons, most of which are small and medium-sized animals. These organisms live in the water like crabs and shrimps. The existence of exoskeletons can provide support for the soft internal organs in the body.

But then again, even if the life here has made certain adaptation to the high gravity environment, it is difficult for them to carry out ultra-high intensity movement like the life on earth, let alone the long-distance migration of thousands of kilometers like salmon.

After all, there are limits to carbon based life. The energy contained in a unit cell is not much higher than that of human cells. Even if evolution is perfect, the life here is still easier to get tired than the life on earth when they are doing high-intensity exercise.

"So, the explosive power of life here is often very strong, but from the endurance level, it is generally not as good as life on earth. People on earth can run marathons for more than 40 kilometers, but the taps can't. after running a few kilometers, they start to pant and get tired. "

A lot of life, like to sleep in the water when resting, because it can save energy.

Taps also like to use the buoyancy of water to get the most comfortable sleep.

“…… This habit has been maintained until now, basically every family has a big bathtub, and then rest, sleep in the bathtub

There's no need to think about drowning in the water. The water quality of the taps is pretty good. They have huge lung lobes and a sponge like buffer cuticle around their muscles, which can easily float on the water.

These are all the objective environments on the planet TEP, and the evolutionary forms of life in these objective environments.After introducing these preconditions, Professor Luo asked: "well, the problem is that since all the life here are high explosive and low endurance species, it means that it is difficult for the Taipu civilization to evolve into a real farming civilization in the most primitive period."

"What is the most important thing to develop agriculture? The first is plants, which need to be cultivated properly. The second is culture, which needs the birth of farming culture. Third, animals. "

“…… The development of agriculture requires livestock and long-term labor. Due to evolution, even the taps themselves are hard to adapt to such long-term labor. Often work a day, it is necessary to rest a day, otherwise it is easy to excessive fatigue, leading to short life. Archaeology also proves this point. In ancient times, the taps stayed in the hunting age for a long time and stopped making progress. "

As soon as this conclusion came out, there was a discussion in the conference room.

This has never been thought of.

Zhang Yuan nodded his head and agreed: "in the earth civilization, there is a saying that there is a very important reason why there is no real farming culture on African land. There are no domesticated large livestock on African grassland."

"In 1500 AD, the population of Africa was only 20 million, while that of Xia, a big agricultural country, reached 160 million. This is the difference between hunting civilization and farming civilization."

Without farming culture, it is really difficult to give birth to a truly brilliant great civilization. Although human beings were born in Africa, there is no real great civilization in this land. Even Egypt, once one of the four ancient civilizations, has long been assimilated by other religions and has not continued to the present.

Settlement enables people to store surplus grain, and farming culture brings stable grain reserves. These grains can support soldiers, craftsmen, craftsmen and so on. They are an important force in war and construction.

At the same time, with food reserves, civilized countries can start giant projects such as the Great Wall.

It is with domesticated wild animals that human civilization can develop rapidly. Cattle and horses can not only cultivate land, but also be a means of transportation.
