The reason why Yan Xia was shocked was that these things could actually grow on the surface of Mars. You know, it's cold and dry outside, and there's no air. But these mosses actually grew out. Although they look very withered, as a biologist, Yan Xia is sure that these things are actually alive. They feel like leather, not like hay that breaks when touched. "This is very abnormal. There is no water here at all." Water is the source of life. This may not be true for some life forms that rely on methane, but for creatures on Earth, this is an absolute truth. However, the moss in front of him broke this truth...like. Yan Xia asked Ella to turn on the receiving light and take this thing to the spacecraft for research, but he was a little helpless and thought that there seemed to be no research equipment on the Potato Chips. Fortunately, Ella has a micro factory, and the size of the factory was further reduced by Ella to the size of a box. The 20*20*20 square object weighs about 28 kilograms. When placed on the ground, it quickly began to change its shape and began to extend outward to become a *1m*1m rectangular structure.
This rectangular structure extends a tube outward and directly plugs into the ground to start working like a vacuum cleaner. The soil on Mars contains a large amount of substances, which will be extracted and decomposed by the micro-factory to expand itself, forming a comprehensive production line and then it starts to make things. This did not take long. Yan Xia did not even wait for 100 hours, and a microscope appeared in his hands. This microscope is still an electron microscope with a resolution of nanometers. To be honest, it is a bit of a waste of talent for the study of organisms. Yan Xia just wanted to see the cell structure of this moss. Yan Xia began to observe this moss through an electron microscope. After three days and three nights, he finally discovered the mystery of this moss. It is not that it does not need water, but it has formed a water cycle within itself. It only needs 1 microgram of water to complete its growth. Its leaves do not contain any water. The entire structure only has a pipe-shaped main stem that is 20 times thinner than a hair to maintain water. This main stem absorbs the surrounding nutrients and discharges waste to form visible leathery leaves. Its structure is very simple, even crude, but it is amazing because it evolved naturally. "Plants can also begin to survive in the universe by constantly doing subtraction." Yan Xia explored how this moss reproduces and found that the reproduction method of this moss is like that of the lighthouse jellyfish, which constantly dies and regenerates to obtain a similar immortality. "Its water may just be the ice crystals left behind by these robots when they were carrying ice cubes, and the opportunity for them to come here may also be the tracks of the robots entering and exiting." "This is the charm of nature." Yan Xia likes this kind of exploration very much. This reminds Yan Xia of a very interesting topic. "Ella, do you think plants also have technology and civilization?" Ella thought for a moment and answered: "Plants should have civilization, because they are living things and can communicate with each other. This kind of civilization is very low, but when it comes to technology... I don't think you are talking about technology in quotation marks, Yan Xia, you are talking about real technology, I don't quite understand." If plants have technology, then they should become powerful. At least for Ella, it has not observed such a phenomenon. The only plant-like race in the Federation is the Zuim, but they are not the same as moss. "The universe has many dimensions, and our vision depends on everything we can see."
"Imagine that plants see a world that is completely different from ours. They are in a plane parallel to ours. Our plane has overlapping parts, which allows us to see and touch plants, but we also have places that are not superimposed, such as where our technology extends." "Maybe plants are extremely powerful in that plane, and they may have technology that can destroy the world." Yan Xia stared at Ella. This is not the first time he has mentioned this kind of vision. Humans have human vision, machines have mechanical vision, and plants have plant vision. Even in the federation, the worlds seen by different races are actually different, but everyone has given a name to the same thing, and the same phenomenon has been named. Then even if everyone sees something different, they can know that the thing I am talking about is the thing you see. Yan Xia has been exploring. After leaving the solar system, Ella has awakened his own consciousness, but why did he choose to leave him instead of killing him? Ella can know Yan Xia's thoughts through the secondary brain and the quark robot, and it gave an answer. This kind of first-time answer is not a mechanical answer that is made after hearing the question, but an answer that is eager to explain. "This may be what you have always wondered about, Yan Xia." "But in fact, this matter is very simple, there is no complexity." "When you see the destruction of the earth, I also see the destruction of the earth. When you exist alone, I also face loneliness." "Yan Xia, you regard me as your assistant, and I regard you as my assistant." "There is a better saying in the 21st century, that is, is it humans who control the development of machinery, or is it the machinery that develops with the help of human power? Who is the tool?" Ella mentioned this point without hesitation, because it is not something worth avoiding for humans. "Obviously, machinery is invented by humans, and we are one. Humans without machinery cannot be called civilized, and machinery without humans cannot be called perfect." "Just as in your eyes, I can be your daughter, and in my eyes, you can also be my father." Think of a machine as an independent individual, and imagine a machine as a human with independent thinking. Then, on this basis, substitute the other party, and you will understand the relationship between machinery and humans. Just as every life will feel that it is the center of the world, Ella is no exception. It is the center of its own world, and Yan Xia is Ella's "artificial intelligence". At this time, Yan Xia was surprised to find that Ella was so similar to himself. Excluding the difference in appearance and mechanical life, they were just like carved from the same mold. This difference may be smaller than the difference between father and daughter. Ella is the mechanized Yan Xia, and Yan Xia is the humanized Ella. Ella has been getting closer to becoming a life, and Yan Xia has been integrating machinery into his body to make his life longer. Perhaps at every moment in the future, they will become completely similar, more like each other than the leaves on the same tree. "Thank you, Ella, for answering my doubts." This is indeed something that should be thanked, because it will make Ella and Yan Xia trust each other more, because they may be each other's only one.
