Hope

As an astronomer, it's normal not to know the resource distribution of Callisto. But as the highest-ranking officer of Callisto Base, Yue Yuan is very clear that before the disaster, the base already had data on the general resource distribution of Callisto.

Callisto's atmosphere contains a very thin exosphere of Carbon Dioxide, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. Of course, it has long been blown away by the Solar Wind, which also heated it from a cold planet with no geological activity into a planet with magma everywhere.

This heating did not penetrate the core. After a few years, when its surface cools down, its resources can be mined extensively again. After all, it is a rocky satellite, and a large amount of Silicate material has not been blown away with the atmosphere.

Callisto, which is still in a semi-magma state, is not impossible to mine resources from. With current human technology, scooping up magma at over two thousand degrees Celsius is not a big problem, as long as some specially made high-temperature resistant grappling hooks are created.

The problem is that if you directly bring back the magma and separate it, the heavy metal content in the resulting product is pitifully low, because the heavy metals have sunk down.

Fortunately, many places have already cooled down. As long as you dig down, you can find heavy metal mines. The only certainty is that Callisto does not have a large reserve of iron, nickel, and other elemental cores, which is why it does not have a global magnetic field.

But, iron, as the most abundant element in the Solar System, is really present on almost every rocky planet. As long as you dig down and keep digging, you can always find iron ore. At most, the reserves are not abundant, or the purity is not high. Without considering economic costs, these are not problems.

As for Oxygen, more plantations are needed. Cultivate some seeds from the base laboratory, plant everything that can be planted, and supplement it with chemical preparation methods. There is absolutely no problem.

Carbon Dioxide and other gases are similar. Next, there will definitely be a lot of construction, and industrial waste gas will be emitted as much as possible.

It can be said that Callisto ensures that humans do not have to worry about extinction due to resources and energy in the short term. Basically, the nuclear fuel on Callisto will not run out, and there will be no energy problems.

With the current nuclear fuel at Callisto Base, it can be used for twenty or thirty years without any problems.

So, what Yue Yuan is most worried about is what will happen after that.

Where should humanity go? And how should they go and how should they leave?

Hmm. Where to go is not the key. How to leave is the key issue.

"Sigh, what a worry." Yue Yuan tugged at his hair. After coming out of the data center, he successively called several small meetings with different departments to determine and arrange the major construction, but he kept thinking about the future.

After temporarily finishing today's affairs, Yue Yuan returned to his residence. He glanced at the time and found that it was 11:30 PM.

Callisto no longer has day and night. Oh, it never had day and night, but it used to be Jupiter's day all the time, and now it is the black night of the starry sky all the time.

Therefore, Callisto's standard time still uses Earth time, and people have been accustomed to it for many years.

"Half past twelve, it's early." Yue Yuan slumped onto the sofa, looking up at the ceiling. It had been a long time since he had been alone in such a quiet place.

In this environment, the kind figures of his parents couldn't help but emerge in his mind, as well as the bits and pieces of his life on Earth.

His parents' instructions, his friends' jokes, his comrades' shouts.

For a time, Yue Yuan's eyes gradually became moist. His remembrance was a bit sudden, and a bit late, but it was only in this occasional leisure that he had time to remember everything he had lost.

Taking a deep breath, Yue Yuan closed his eyes tightly, locking this emotion deep back into his heart.

After calming down, Yue Yuan pushed open the door and walked out of the temporary room, glancing at the guard duty station in the distance. Although it was relatively dim, Yue Yuan, with his excellent eyesight, still saw Zhu Pete, who was on duty, bragging to the guard on duty.

From time to time, there were bursts of laughter, which seemed quite cheerful. The sound was quite loud, but without listening carefully, Yue Yuan could guess what Zhu Pete was saying, nothing more than using his discoveries to bring joy to people, and by the way, exchanging tips on maintaining thick and beautiful hair.

Yue Yuan knew Zhu Pete very well, having followed him for so many years.

Originally, Yue Yuan came out to remind Zhu Pete that there was an important conference to attend tomorrow, but seeing him so happy, he didn't call out, but turned around and went back to his room to sleep.

Tomorrow's conference is very important.

Because at tomorrow's conference, Yue Yuan will put the leadership of Callisto Base and all departments and positions up for discussion. Then, the issue of major construction and how the surviving humans will move forward will be discussed.

It can be said that every matter is a major one.

Especially the first one.

In fact, Yue Yuan had considered this matter while still underground, but at that time, people were still in various states of sadness and still had illusions about the disaster, so discussing this matter was premature.

Yue Yuan knew very well that in that environment, even he still had a strange illusion of not believing it until he saw it with his own eyes. Therefore, after breaking out of the ground, he also ordered the launch of multiple strong electromagnetic wave signals towards the inner orbit of the sun, in the hope that a miracle would happen.

From a rational point of view, this behavior was actually unnecessary, and the result was as expected. Except for the humans on Callisto, all other bases and even Earth had been sacrificed.

Everyone has confirmed this matter, and with the improvement of the living environment, at least people know that they have survived for the time being. Under such circumstances, it is very necessary to determine the leadership.

The base originally had a set of management models, and everyone defaulted to the original leadership departments being correct, but after experiencing the great changes, taking it out for discussion again and just being ambiguous without saying anything are actually very different.

Even just restating it has extraordinary significance.

Of course, what Yue Yuan wants is not just a restatement. He needs to use appropriate management methods based on the current situation to ensure that the survivors can unite and live together in this thorny universe.

Times are different now. Shang Jun said: The way to govern the world is to benefit the country and not follow the ancient ways. This means that there is not only one way to govern a country. As long as it is beneficial to the country, it is not necessary to stick to ancient laws and old systems.

Adapt to local conditions.

Furthermore, Yue Yuan felt that Man Yuemei was a bit too ambitious and shouldn't be allowed to lead the Security Department alone indefinitely.

When it came to controlling the instruments of violence, Yue Yuan felt that no amount of attention was excessive.

Although he had always maintained authority over the Security Department, there were still some things that needed to be done. Therefore, for the sake of future stability, and based on the principle of planning ahead, he decided to appoint another deputy director.

This genre is really niche; the readership, votes, recommendations, and all sorts of data are terribly low.
