I have a little black hole

Chapter 875 Everything is for humanity to step into the interstellar age!

On a weekday, let's not talk about the conventional ultraviolet killing, ozone killing and the like. There are also various drug killing programs in the laboratory's virus control system.

One of the most extreme measures is to directly initiate the laboratory's self-destruction procedure. If this procedure is triggered, the entire laboratory's self-destruction system will be directly used at a high temperature of more than 1500 degrees Celsius for up to 10 after the evacuation of all researchers. Minutes of burning without dead ends!

No virus or microorganism can withstand such a high temperature for such a long period of time. At present, the highest record of bacteria with high temperature resistance is 200 degrees Celsius, and even the most viable water bear worm can only Only survive for 2 minutes at 151 degrees Celsius!

As for why the origin does not start such a program when the researchers are still there, just like the red queen in "Resident Evil", in order to ensure that the virus does not leak to the outside world, the entire laboratory is directly blocked, even the researchers All of them have been eliminated together, mainly in design to avoid such a situation.

Because the BSL-5 laboratory designed by the company is more advanced and safer than the BSL-4 laboratory, the core is different. The entire laboratory is divided into two separate areas, a high-risk area and a low-risk area.

And all the people working in high-risk areas are the second-generation intelligent robots specially customized by the robot laboratory. The researchers conduct these high-risk experiments by operating these robots. Of course, the risk of such experiments is minimized.

So even if there is a leak of mutant viruses and mutant microorganisms, researchers in low-risk areas have enough time to evacuate after strict elimination procedures.

After they evacuate, the origin will completely close the entire laboratory and start the self-destruction system to ensure that no viruses will leak. Because the entire BSL-5 laboratory is like the ecosphere laboratory submitted by Liu Helong. It is a double-layer fully enclosed design.

Even if the virus was discovered in the early stage, there is absolutely no way for them to break through such a defense layer within a certain period of time.

The reason why these studies are known to be dangerous is that they still need to be studied, in order to be the future of human beings. Humans want to truly enter the era of interstellar migration, these studies must be done!

Because human life is too fragile, even if Lei Tiantang’s current physical fitness research is 10 times more powerful than ordinary humans, in Kuafu’s simulation calculations, there are many kinds of viruses and microorganisms mutated in the laboratory. Such physical qualities are also irresistible, not to mention ordinary people.

In the company's future space program, short-term missions include landing missions to the moon, Mars, and asteroids. In these missions, astronauts are required to fly in space for a long time in space.

In order to enable these huge space projects to proceed safely, the company's scientists began to think in the micro direction, they targeted the small bacteria and microorganisms.

Because according to their previous experiments in the laboratory and related experimental studies in the space station experimental warehouse, it has been shown that various strong ray effects in the universe are enough to cause abnormal mutations in certain bacterial and microbial genes and express stronger toxicity!

These mutated bacteria and microorganisms will be very deadly for astronauts who will fly in space for a long time in the future. Humans cannot even treat and protect many viruses and microorganisms without mutations, let alone these fatalities. Taller guys!

For a long flight in space, not only a series of life-sustaining equipment is required for human beings, but more importantly, it can maintain the health of the body. For example, if you fly to Mars according to the previous spacecraft technology, it will last for a year. Flying Mars is a huge challenge, and various unknown situations can occur.

What if astronauts get sick in space, microorganisms such as Salmonella may become more deadly in a microgravity environment, and the microgravity environment can change the activity habits of microorganisms and may make the treatment on the earth effective, so these These are the major unknown factors facing human space flight in the future.

And if there is a problem of mutated infectious diseases during a long space flight, it will be a terrible thing for astronauts in the entire spaceship!

There is also the influence of microorganisms on aerospace activities. When the spacecraft is flying in space and in the future colonial advancement base, we are like a sealed can, a completely closed system.

In such an environment, we must have a very detailed understanding of these bacterial groups that may have an impact on our human survival, and conduct comprehensive spatial research, whether it is beneficial or harmful bacteria to the human body are very important.

In the past decade, research on microbes in space has shown that microbes often exhibit bizarre behaviors in space. Some microbial communities can become very large, some grow slowly, and some microbes have changed shapes or have strong Resistance to antibiotics makes them ineffective.

However, researchers are not yet sure which bacteria will be caused by the microgravity environment to develop a strong pathogenic ability, but the possibility of this mutation has been discovered, and this is what the researchers are worried about.

Take the laboratory side for sending Salmonella to the South Tianmen Space Station for testing. After experimental observation, Salmonella cultured in space has a three-year higher infection capacity for mice than in the laboratory on the ground. Times.

This is because the space radiation or space environment changed the Salmonella gene, and the mutated gene expressed stronger toxicity.Astronauts are not very resistant to microgravity, and the increased toxicity is disturbing.

Another research team published a study that showed that the interaction between different pathogens in the space environment will also become more deadly.

For example, a recent study conducted by them found that the effect of the space environment on another bacterium (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) has genetic characteristics. This phenomenon has also been found in some Salmonella. The mutated gene can continue to be expressed after reproduction, but the study Personnel have not confirmed that Pseudomonas aeruginosa will become fatal in the space environment.

Of course, researchers have also found that microorganisms in space can also help human development. On the one hand, they can help develop better vaccines. Laboratory experts cultivate microorganisms brought back from space in the laboratory and develop A new vaccine and improve the role of the vaccine.
