"What about the probe?" Lü Yongchang asked again after a moment's thought. "Are the probe's strength test results out yet?"
Li Yuntian quickly nodded in the holographic projection. "As expected, the probe's pressure resistance reached one million standard atmospheres."
"Although it can't reach the deepest parts of the ice giant, it can still bring us a wealth of survey data."
Lü Yongchang nodded in satisfaction.
"Hope and Hansent have only just begun their human enhancement modification. You have about half a month left."
"Keep testing [Poseidon]. I don't want any mistakes when the time comes."
"Not even a mistake the size of a screw!"
Seeing Lü Yongchang's grave expression, Li Yuntian hurriedly composed himself and nodded in acknowledgment.
After ending the call, Lü Yongchang turned toward the faint red glow in the holographic projection beside him, worry showing in his eyes.
Like the Proxima Centauri Humans before them, the Human Fleet had encountered the same problem.
The Space City Child-Rearing Center had greatly reduced people's willingness to have children.
This had even begun to affect the normal future development of human civilization.
According to Zero's simulations, at the current birth rate, human civilization would experience its first population decline in five hundred years.
For an interstellar civilization, this would undoubtedly be a catastrophic disaster!
"Should we implement the communal child-rearing system...?"
Lü Yongchang murmured worriedly to himself.
As a pilot program, the human civilization on Proxima Centauri had already been declared a failure.
Could they really be certain of succeeding?
Lü Yongchang was filled with unease.
Although he had not communicated with Proxima b, the latest developments in its human civilization were actually submitted to him every day-the Academy of Sciences' social sciences academicians were constantly collecting data and refining the reform model while helping the Proxima Centauri Civilization.
