“To bring all this into reality, we simply need to leave everything to the agricultural and agricultural experts. This system is guaranteed to succeed.” Dimitri concluded the discussion on the farming system, and then…Dr. Rajes Kapoor also spoke up, immediately pointing out a hurdle they faced with this system. “However, there’s one long-standing issue we’ve been pondering. That is the transportation route isn’t easy. The distance between the bunkers and the city is quite significant. Fuel might not be a problem, but transportation routes plus sterilization systems need to be upgraded.”In fact, the bunkers previously used by humans as shelter had quite a distance from the four cities. Perhaps compared to Lycaelus City, the distance is still very close, but when it comes to Edelirus City, the distance is truly far and would complicate transportation routes.“For this issue, we just need to discuss everything with construction experts who have been involved in building our dome cities
With everything agreed upon, the fieldwork team began their work. The technical team designed optimal solar panel installations. They mapped out the areas most exposed to sunlight inside the bunker and calculated the daily energy needs to support farming and plant lighting. The solar panels would be positioned to maximize solar energy utilization throughout the day.Another team began designing the vertical hydroponic system. They created detailed designs of the structure and water flow, considering the water needs of each plant, and devised contingency plans to address potential technical disruptions. Small-scale experiments were conducted to ensure that this system could be successfully implemented.In another area, the lighting specialist team tackled the task of installing special lights to integrate LED lights with solar panels. They determined the most effective light spectrum to support photosynthesis and calculated the number of lights needed to cover the entire farming area i
Silence lingered between them for a few seconds, as a robot waiter brought warm drinks that Dimitri immediately savored.Makarov took a deep breath before starting to discuss a new topic. “By the way,” he said slowly, “During the research and studies we’ve conducted, I feel there’s one thing we haven’t touched upon.”Dimitri gazed at Makarov attentively. “What is it? Tell me.”Makarov straightened his back, then turned to Dimitri with enthusiasm. “We’ve been focusing on improving conditions inside the bunker, but what about out there? What about efforts to restore the actual Earth? We can’t continue living in this city dome, the world is vast, and humans must regain control of it as in the past.”Dimitri pondered for a moment. Makarov’s idea indeed differed from their main focus of discussion. “So, what are you thinking?” he asked with interest.Makarov explained his brilliant idea with fervor. “What if we use the same technology to create a new ecosystem on the Earth’s surface? Isn’t
February 27, 2075Makarov and Dimitri decided to visit the lab where Kouland was working on his project. This lab was located inside his main residence. In this era, Kouland Brysthiersk was the first person developing bionic organs that not only helped restore human organs but also strengthened them. Kouland himself was a scientist specialized in handling this matter.What project was Kouland working on? Bionic technology is a field of science and technology that combines biological principles with engineering to create systems, devices, or products that have functions or characteristics resembling or inspired by living organisms. This includes using structures, materials, and mechanisms inspired by living organisms to design innovative technological solutions. Examples of bionic technology applications include bionic prosthetics, the development of materials inspired by the structure of living organisms, and the creation of robots that mimic the movements or functions of living organ
Then Makarov brought up a more specific target of concern. “What we’re worried about is your friend, Volkov. He seems to be planning something.”“You’re too paranoid, he’s a good person, hardworking and very ambitious.” Kouland still had a good impression of Volkov, he didn’t see anything wrong with the man.Makarov shook his head, disagreeing with Kouland. “I don’t know, he looks like a bad guy to me.”Kouland chuckled at Makarov’s words, as if it were a funny joke.“Hey, I’m serious. Anyway, you should be cautious with that guy.” Makarov sternly admonished, causing Kouland to stop laughing.“Okay, okay, I’ll remember your words.”“Don’t just remember, I think you should make preparations or take precautions if the situation ever turns dangerous.”“I understand, thank you for your advice, both of you.”Soon a woman arrived carrying her child. She was Carlienne, Kouland’s wife and a biologist, carrying their toddler son. When she saw her two colleagues visiting, Carlienne greeted them
“Here’s the issue. Let me run the simulation first,” Carlienne said, not immediately explaining the problem she was facing. It would be much better if Makarov and Dimitri could see everything firsthand.With trembling hands, she initiated the simulation. The hologram machine began to display the task-performing machine, showing how the machine should operate. However, the tension on Carlienne’s face became more apparent as the simulation results disappointed. The machine, which should have functioned, began to appear to fail to operate.“See? This is what’s been happening all along, even after all the efforts I’ve made, it still hasn’t yielded the results I expected.” Carlienne said, her voice trembling, trying to conceal her disappointment.Dimitri and Makarov exchanged glances for a few seconds, apparently not expecting the machine to stop working even before printing began.“Is there a technical problem we can fix?” Makarov asked, trying to reassure Carlienne.Carlienne shook her h
March 7, 2075Dimitri and Makarov, having finalized their design, requested a meeting to present their project. The meeting request was approved, and currently, the meeting room was filled with attendees. Among them were not only scientists, but also government officials responsible for city affairs, along with entrepreneurs who were eager to invest in the scientists’ projects.With this meeting, Makarov and Dimitri hoped that their project would be approved and receive full support. They anticipated investors willing to contribute funds for this project so that it could be realized as soon as possible and start operating promptly, thus allowing the Earth to return to its green state in the near future.Seeing the large number of attendees, Dimitri whispered to Makarov, “Did you arrange this? Somehow, I feel like there are far more attendees than I anticipated.”“I have no idea. It seems these people were intentionally invited, perhaps there’s another agenda to be discussed,” Makarov
Previously, Makarov mentioned that he and Dimitri had submitted a terraforming project. But what exactly is Terraforming? Terraforming is the process of engineering or modifying the environment of a planet, moon, or other celestial body to make it more similar to Earth, thus suitable for human habitation or to support biological life. This process often involves manipulating climate, atmosphere, topography, and surface chemical composition. Examples of terraforming techniques include releasing greenhouse gases to warm the planet, creating a new atmosphere by releasing certain gases, or generating water through processes such as delivering ice asteroids to the planet’s surface. Terraforming could be the best solution to address the current world conditions already damaged by world wars. The damaged Earth can now be restored and greened again, and the environment and ecosystems will be as they were in the past.Makarov raised his hand, drawing everyone’s attention to him. “Esteemed gues
