Da Wu Star System.

A straight runway had already been successfully built.

A simple control tower stood beside it.

After the aircraft was towed over, the pilot boarded and carried out a full inspection. Then, under the ground crew's guidance, the plane smoothly took off and flew away.

This aircraft was mainly responsible for photography and reconnaissance.

With the runway completed, the satellite launch facility nearby was also under construction.

They had to launch the satellite into space as soon as possible.

Only then could they gain a comprehensive understanding of this planet.

During this time, the robotic dogs sent out to survey the surrounding area had found quite a few mineral resources.

They had also discovered many plant resources.

"Look, this kind of tree can be found in Nuwa's database. It is classified as a sub-planetary-grade material. These trees have a slow growth cycle and generally take two hundred years to mature. They are commonly used for spacecraft decking."

For a type of tree to qualify as a sub-planetary-grade material was already extremely remarkable.

One major reason was that spacecraft decks required this material.

Some spacecraft were hundreds or even thousands of meters long, and they could have more than ten or even dozens of decks.

If the entire ship used planetary-grade composite materials, its construction cost would rise sharply.

That kind of cost was difficult to bear.

The appearance of this kind of tree could solve that problem quite well.

Over the hundreds of years of interstellar travel, this wood would not rot, deform, oxidize, catch fire, or suffer from a range of other issues.

The main point was that the wood met the necessary standards and was highly suitable for many spacecraft components.

"Also, here, we found a large Gold Mine. And here, we detected oil underground."
