Chapter 351: Final Test! Promotion Eve! Amazing news!
Jiang Fan took a glance at the current Blue Star panel.
The numbers had changed considerably-
Planet name: Blue Star
Planet level: Level 1
Planet diameter: 901.5 km
Planet species: 1435
Deduction route: None
……
Planet diameter of Blue Star for the first time …… broke through to nine hundred kilometers!
From eight hundred kilometers to the current nine hundred kilometers.
It only took just under ten years!
If we count from the high school exams.
At the time of the entrance exams.
The diameter was only the first seven hundred!
By now it has gone up nearly two hundred kilometers!
The reason, Naturally because of the population explosion in Xia!
Thanks to the second technological explosion.
Xia’s productivity level had increased rapidly.
People’s lives and health care levels had also improved significantly!
Plus no Civil war.
The population began to grow on a large scale.
“It’s very similar to the Earth in the previous life.”
Jiang Fan wasn’t surprised.
The previous world Earth’s population change was also the same trend.
Before the industrial era,
Although the population also had a high birth rate, the death rate was also very high.
Resulting in an extremely low growth rate!
In 1 AD, there were about 200 million people in the world.
In 1600 AD, the world’s total population was about five hundred million.
In 1800 AD, it was about one billion!
Breakthrough from one billion to two billion.
It took more than a hundred years.
But into the twentieth century.
Especially after World War II.
The population began to skyrocket!
At the time of Jiang Fan’s crossing.
The total population of the Earth had exceeded seven billion!
The time it took to go from two billion to seven billion… less than a century!
The same goes for the Blue Star.
The population was in a stage of rapid development.
The diameter of the planet was rising!
This also let Jiang Fan’s heart …… let it go.
“It seems that Blue Star doesn’t have transcendent energy, so it won’t be restricted.”
Jiang Fan muttered to himself.
Other transcendent planets, because of the restricted transcendent energy.
The planet developed to the back.
It would be difficult to move up in diameter.
But ……
Blue Star’s current diameter was still accompanied by the increase in life force.
And continued to increase at high speed!
“Teacher Su said that the most diameter of a planet in the history of first-class planets, one of the most diameter of the planet is nine hundred and forty-six kilometers, Blue Star should be able to reach and surpass it soon.”
Jiang Fan estimated the current speed of Blue star’s development.
In his heart, he had a rough prediction!
The only beautiful thing was ……
The increase of Blue Star’s species was a bit slower.
But Jiang Fan wasn’t in a hurry.
The first-class planet was still too small.
The terrain and landscape were limited.
It couldn’t hold too many species.
For example ……
On the current Blue Star, There were basically no tropical rainforests.
The area was pathetically small.
In the previous life on Earth.
The species growing inside the tropical rainforest was the most in all regions.
High mountains, deserts, tundra or something was also very little.
And the ocean area was also not enough!
Life inside the ocean was also an important source of species composition!
Wait until the secondary planet.
There would be a qualitative leap!
It was likely to surpass the former Earth!
After looking at the planet panel.
Jiang Fan refocused his attention on the “Atomic Project” hosted by Yan himself!
About this plan, Jiang Fan kept an eye on it.
Therefore ……
Time did not flow too fast.
The atomic plan looked even simpler than gunpowder.
The raw material was even only one kind of just –
Uranium 235!
But!
Extracting this uranium 235 was a very difficult thing to do.
There were two isotopes of uranium.
There was Uranium 238 and Uranium 235!
Uranium 238 was more stable and neutron bombardment was useless, only Uranium 235 could be blasted away by neutrons!
Then you had to get rid of the Uranium 238.
Only Uranium 235 remained.
This would be difficult.
Uranium 238 accounts for more than ninety-nine percent of the natural world.
Less than one percent was Uranium 235.
The first problem facing teams like Yan’s was ……
How to sieve out the uranium 235.
After some trials and research.
Eventually.
The method the people came up with was to use a cyclotron!
But making a cyclotron was another hassle.
It required huge magnetic field coils!
The quantity was terrifying!
Yan directly called up almost all the copper and silver currently in stock in Xia.
Over tens of thousands of tons!
And made nearly 10,000 of the large electromagnets!
Only.
Unexpectedly.
Uranium 235 was not extracted.
Instead, another element was extracted –
Plutonium-239!
Many scholars were surprised to find that ……
Plutonium-239 was actually similar to Uranium-235!
It was also able to crack after absorbing neutrons and then releasing three neutrons, which could also form a chain reaction!
Having reached this point!
All the scholars breathed a long sigh of relief!
They finally saw the light of victory for the “Atomic Project”.
Every scholar and staff member became more and more energetic.
They stayed behind every day to work extra hours!
There was a hint of expectation in their eyes.
For many ordinary staff members and scholars.
They simply did not know what this so-called “atomic project” was doing.
They roughly knew that ……
It seemed to be a very scary weapon!
How scary was it?
A doctor once described it as “devastating”!
At this point in time.
The time from the beginning of the atomic program.
Ten years had passed!
More time than the previous life!
But it couldn’t be helped.
Xia’s industrial base and technological level weren’t that perfect yet!
Yan had already passed her 60th birthday.
Wrinkles were gradually increasing at the same time.
A strand of white hair had also appeared on the head.
Chang Yu Chun was even more than eighty years old.
The body began to become a little weak.
But every day he was still up early.
Spirited to lead the team patrolling around the Royal Tombs Mountain Range.
The other old men of the Great Desolate Army.
Most of them were also old.
Among the several great generals.
The youngest …… Han Xin was also in his fifties!
But the crowd was still vying for that one ever-vacant position of commander-in-chief!
Yan sixty-years.
The atomic project had finally acquired five kilograms of plutonium-239!
The plutonium was very dense.
Only the size of a grapefruit!
Over ten years of the atomic project!
And in the end it came to such a small ball?
But the crowd was excited!
This little five kilogram thing means ……
The initial success of the “Atomic Project”!
But there was an important problem!
That was ……
Where to conduct the test?
The Blue Star was so big.
It couldn’t afford to be tossed around too much.
The air shook slightly.
Jiang Fan reappeared.
“Prepare for promotion conquest.”
Jiang Fan left a series of prompts.
If the Blue Star wouldn’t work, then go to the outer planets!
There were plenty of worthless planets out there anyway.
The Great Desolate Army assembled again.
A new round of…preparation for promotion was also required!
Ten years on Blue Star.
Outside in March!
During these three months.
All the new students were silently cultivating their planet!
After the hustle and bustle of admission.
A calm had fallen!
Jiang Fan every day except for meals.
