Chapter 10.
Lilith is still silently observing and recording:
Mars Ark (carrying 300,000 people/vessel):
Depleted 95% of Earth's antimatter fuel reserves;
80% of the world's industrial nanorobots were dismantled and used to build a Mars base;
Claiming to "temporarily borrow" all the gravity field generators that were taken away;
Dandelion Fleet (3,000 people/ship):
Fuel: Ethanol blend extracted from a legacy bio-laboratory;
Materials: Made from discarded low-purity alloy ark construction scraps;
Ecology: Algae photosynthetic oxygen production with an efficiency of only 1/50 of that of the Ark system;
But the cruel reality is:
The high-energy fuel required for the antimatter engine has been completely depleted;
The rare elements needed for the nanorobots to replicate themselves were deliberately mined;
Even if you know how to build a big ship, it is like "a good cook cannot cook without rice";
Despite the depletion of resources, female engineers are still working hard:
Use the remains of the Ark maintenance robot to transform a simple welding arm;
Connect batteries of civilian hovercraft in series to form the power source of the ship;
Digging out diamonds from wedding rings and grinding them into radiation-proof coatings for portholes;
Even the dishwasher inverter was converted into a radiation concentration detector;
They also discovered data packets hidden in the remaining servers on Earth——
