Chapter 254 Dazzled
After retracting his gaze, Fan Ren continued to browse other combat ships, including various special ships of many categories and types.
I have to say that the biggest gain today was this trip to the Star Domain Market.
Although ship sales are not a major transaction item in the Galactic Alliance, it is entirely possible to observe through these ship classifications and technical data the characteristics and performance of the mainstream spacecraft, combat ships, and other types of spacecraft used by the Galactic Alliance over the years of development.
As a reference, these are extremely important for the future development direction of mankind.
After closing the spaceship option, there are still more than ten categories below.
Classification includes buildings, technical equipment for buildings, planetary infrastructure, ship equipment, weapons and ammunition, etc.
Fan Ren continued to browse it roughly.
The buildings are mainly space factories with different functions, but the buildings can also be customized in terms of functions and styles.
Among them, the super-large automated dock construction factory caught Fan Ren's attention the longest.
But in the end he discovered that the construction efficiency under this architectural plan was not much better than the fully automated space factory designed and managed by Ah Dai.
The only difference is that in some key parts, higher-tech technologies are used, which slightly improves efficiency.
But he has the Conqueror's photonic computer in his hands, and most importantly, as an electronic life form, Ah Dai's application ability in the field of computers is incomparably powerful.
This meant that Fan Ren did not pay too much attention to the design of these industrial buildings.
Further down, the options for planetary infrastructure aroused Fan Ren's curiosity.
Here is a series of infrastructure for transforming the planet's environment.
Undoubtedly, this is a technical product category that can greatly improve the mining environment and efficiency.
These technological products can transform planets to create an environment that is suitable for carbon-based organisms to operate.
This is to develop mining on planets with extremely harsh environments.
Looked at the price.
Fan Ren thought to himself, it is indeed so.
The price of this technology product is very cheap.
According to the severity of the environment, the Galactic Alliance divides planets into five different levels.
Among them, carbon-based life-habitable planets are all first-class stars without exception.
After this, Mars, for example, can be classified as a second-class planet according to the rating standards of the Galactic Alliance.
Similarly, as the environment becomes more severe, the level of the planet becomes lower.
The last five planets have environments as harsh as those on Venus and Mercury.
As an analogy, to date, human civilization does not have the ability to conduct relevant scientific research activities on Venus or Mercury.
Even ground-based probes find it difficult to complete scientific research tasks.
In fact, the temperatures of these two planets are as high as 400 to 500 degrees, and the greenhouse effect on their surfaces has absolutely no effect at all.
At the same time, the atmosphere on the surface of Venus also contains corrosive gases such as sulfuric acid clouds, which makes it easy for metals to corrode on it.
This planetary infrastructure product corresponds to these different levels of planets, thereby changing their planetary environment.
Fan Ren stayed on this category for a while, thinking about it, and then his eyes continued to move down to the category of ship equipment.
It doesn't matter if you take a look at it, the large number of subcategories will immediately make Fan Ren lost.
The thruster classification includes not only the afterburners unique to advanced civilizations.
There is also a unique thruster that Fox and Mel had not mentioned before: a micro jump drive.
This is an engine system that can perform space jumps directly in front of the bow of the ship within a range of 100-1000 kilometers.
Fan Ren looked at the introduction and couldn't help but show shock in his eyes.
The five major civilizations obviously already have very deep foundation in space technology.
This micro jump engine is a unique equipment that can be installed on small special ships.
Unlike the ultra-long-distance space jumping technology of flagships such as Titan, this technology is much more difficult than the former.
Because this is a technology that completely relies on the engine's own precise control variables to position in space and then make directional jumps.
And the important point is that it can be installed on small spacecraft.
This brings about a huge strategic change.
A picture instantly appeared in Fan Ren's mind.
If the T2 Peregrine Falcon can be equipped with this jump engine, then in certain battlefield environments that may occur in the future, it can completely rely on its unique stealth technology to carry out a stealth breakthrough on the enemy fleet.
Then, when it approaches a distance of 1000 kilometers, it will directly make a space jump, and then when it lands, it will turn on the induction signal wave.
At this time, the Conqueror, which was lying in ambush 10 light years away, could instantly cross the distance of several light years and reach the face of the enemy fleet.
The next scene is completely imaginable.
Doomsday weapons launch an annihilation attack on them. In this case, the opponent will probably be completely unable to prepare for resistance.
He was lost in fantasy and couldn't help being shocked when he thought of this. Although this temporary battle plan he had come up with seemed a little unrealistic, the result was very beautiful.
In a trance, Fan Ren calmed himself down, quickly collected his thoughts and continued reading.
In the classification of thrusters, there are not only those equipments with extremely high technical levels, but also relatively common nuclear fusion engines.
These were the technical details that Fan Ren was more concerned about, so he clicked on them one by one and looked at them carefully.
Humanity’s current nuclear fusion engines have achieved a plasma utilization rate of 30%.
The utilization rate of the nuclear fusion engine here has reached at least 50%.
Obviously, as a newly-emerged second-level civilization, humans are still relatively backward in basic technology.
Although with the help of the system in the body of Fanren, humans have some unique technological products.
However, most basic classification technologies still require scientists to make breakthroughs step by step.
What Fan Ren can do is to increase his experience points through his own research and study, so as to unlock some individual technical products with particularly high technical levels.
For example, the graphene chip is an example in materials science.
It seems that the 30% R&D investment he had previously made in this regard was still somewhat insufficient.
Perhaps, in the face of the technological products of the Galactic Alliance, which are at least more powerful than those of humans, this amount will have to be increased further.
Of course, this does not mean that humans will not invest in minerals.
After all, as a newly promoted second-level civilization, they cannot be too unconventional.
In some aspects, we still have to follow the old path of most secondary civilizations.
This is mining for money.
