Doomsday Bunker Upgrade Chapter 443: Design for disaster response
For human beings, there are not many ways to avoid disaster.
In ancient times, human technology was underdeveloped. At that time, most of the human beings had little resistance to natural disasters. Disasters such as floods and earthquakes could easily destroy human homes.
A large number of people will die because of the disaster, and even the surviving humans can only rebuild their homes with difficulty, and more will be displaced.
So in ancient times there were often refugees, people who lost their homes due to famine or other disasters and had to migrate to other places.
Even in modern times, human technology has advanced with each passing day, but it is still quite difficult to fight natural disasters.
Ordinary small-scale natural disasters humans can still rely on the support provided by sturdy buildings and modern technology to resist, at least not to destroy their homes, and it is relatively easy to rebuild.
However, in the face of major natural disasters that can change the terrain and divert mountains and rivers, human beings are still unable to resist, or they can only save their lives in the face of disasters.
For regional disasters, most human beings still rely on the past. Fortunately, modern society is relatively advanced in technology, and it is not too difficult to rebuild their homes after disasters and resettle refugees.
It's just that a global disaster like this meteorite impact is not easy to fight, and it is not easy to get rid of the impact of the disaster and rebuild after the disaster.
Under such a disaster, the entire human civilization has no good way to resist.
Originally, Chen Xin thought that the cold winter brought about by the meteorite impact was the biggest challenge for mankind, but now the impact of the successive eruptions of the three super volcanoes has made Chen Xin realize that the meteorite impact and the cold winter of the long night are both Just the beginning.
In order to survive this terrible disaster and continue human civilization, the challenges that human beings need to face are beyond imagination.
Relying on the construction of underground shelters to fight against disasters like this can indeed withstand a period of time, and it is also the limit of what human civilization can do under the current technological conditions.
For help, [Mimi Reading App] can steal book tickets just like stealing vegetables. Come and steal your friends' book tickets and vote for my book.
If you want more and better ways to fight disaster, it can only exist in science fiction.
What Chen Xin wanted was the inspiration of these science fiction works that could resist natural disasters.
When it comes to defending against natural disasters, the game "Tomorrow's Ark" is undoubtedly the most inspiring.
In the ark world, human beings invented mobile cities to avoid natural disasters. This modular city can be split and combined one by one at will, and moved at the same time, so that the entire city has the ability to move and can avoid natural disasters. It is a very valuable existence.
But to actually build a mobile city would be a fantasy.
Let's not mention that the southern part of the Yan Kingdom where Chen Xin is now is full of hills and rivers, and there is no condition for mobile cities to travel. There is no way to build a vehicle that can carry an entire city.
And even if Chen Xin really built a mobile city by means of system upgrades and provided related technologies for human beings, it would take too many resources to build a city that can move freely.
More importantly, Blue Star is not Terra, there are not so many natural disasters to avoid, and the city itself does not need to move frequently.
So for Chen Xin, Mobile City is just a relatively good reference. He will make it when he really needs it, but before that, Mobile City is far from Rhode Island, the real protagonist in "Tomorrow's Ark". Practical and attractive.
Rhode Island is a huge Land Cruiser, roughly the size of an aircraft carrier, but capable of traveling on land, somewhat similar to a small mobile city, but only the size and scale of a small town.
In fact, an aircraft carrier built with modern technology is not inferior to Rhode Island in all aspects except that it cannot travel on land like Rhode Island.
And in terms of the size of an aircraft carrier, its interior is indeed equivalent to a small city.
An aircraft carrier, at least by today's sanctuary, can indeed hold the population of the next medium sanctuary inside.
It's not a simple matter to move an aircraft carrier sailing at sea to land, or a problem that can be solved by human's current technology.
All aspects of the problems involved, even before the disaster, the entire Blue Star may only have the strength of the Soviet Union and the Federation in the Cold War era, and the Yan Kingdom that has risen after the 21st century to study and solve it. .
And this also requires the investment of all three countries to make it possible.
It is a mega-engineering no less than manned space engineering ~IndoMTL.com~ Only truly great nations can achieve it.
After the disaster, although the current Yan Kingdom still retains enough strength, the investment in building such a behemoth that runs on land is too great.
Chen Xin can only use it as a backup plan now, and he can start researching, but he can't say that he will definitely be able to build this thing.
Although he only needs to constantly invest in the upgrade of survival points, he can upgrade a Land Cruiser like Rhode Island.
"The Land Cruiser is still not very useful in the southwest region!" It's just that although the manufacture of Rhode Island has been included in the plan list, in Chen Xin's opinion, a behemoth with a length of several hundred meters like Rhode Island is If you want to drive into the southwest, it still seems a little impractical.
Is there something more practical? Chen Xin continued to rummage while recording the information on Rhode Island.
He suddenly remembered something.
In one of the novels he had read in the past, there were also descriptions of disasters. One of the stories was that the protagonist traveled to the world of the movie "2012". In that world, he did not go to the ark built by the governments of various countries. Build a personal ark that can dodge disaster.
The method adopted by the protagonist is to build an airbag ark that can float in the sky based on airship technology, leading a group of people to escape the world-destroying flood in "2012".
Maybe this is a good idea? If you can fly, the mountainous terrain of the southwest region will not be able to form restrictions.
In this way, even if a large-scale geological disaster does occur in the southwest region, traffic is interrupted, it is impossible to enter the disaster area by land, and the plane cannot land, there is still a way to enter the disaster area and transfer the victims out.
