China is launching two moon-related plans, one to build solar power plants on the moon and the other to build artificial moons on Earth, a major step in China's use of sunlight to open up new energy fields. Collecting solar energy from space and sending it to the earth is the direction of multinational efforts. China started to build a power station on the moon after launching the lunar exploration project. David Chriswell, a professor of American science and technology at the University of Houston, claims that China regards the moon as a giant satellite that can capture solar energy. Due to the extreme polar and polar nights of the moon's poles, China plans to build two solar power stations on the poles of the moon, so that the energy generated by solar energy will be collected continuously.

Germany said that China plans to send prototypes into space in 2021, and the equipment has already begun assembly in China. The equipment will be operational on the moon by 2030, when the total weight will reach 1,000 tons. Demedia said that what cannot be confirmed at present is how China transports these energy back to Earth. If the plan reported by Germany is true, then China is likely to use these energy sources at the lunar base. China plans to establish a geo-monthly space economic zone around 2050 with an output value of $10 trillion. This plan is inseparable from the development of lunar resources, that is, it must establish its own base on the moon, which is also inseparable from the use of a large amount of energy on the moon. Equipment weighing up to 1,000 tons is also required to be transported to the moon. It also requires safer and more economical means of transport. China also has plans to establish a land highway "highway" between the moon and the earth. This plan also takes a long time. achieve.

Another moon-related plan in China is to build a huge mirror in the Earth's orbit, the artificial moon. This huge mirror in China's plan will send the sun to Chengdu. Because this mirror has four mirrors, it can always be in the space around the night and night, so it will always be illuminated by the sun. It will reflect the sun above the city of Chengdu, which is equivalent to the second moon. Compared to the real moon, the "artificial moon" is eight times brighter, but the light does not cause any biological activity. The best good thing about artificial moon is to save electricity. If there is such a moon, the whole city can stop using night lighting for a large area, which will save a lot of energy. It is said that Chengdu can reduce electricity bill by 1.2 billion yuan every year.

At present, the biggest problem of the artificial moon is still the technology of the reflector. The reflector of the "artificial moon" in space requires strong, long and thin, and the control of precision is very high. Previously, Russia had carried out a similar project and eventually failed because the reflector failed to open as planned. This plan is more realistic than building a power station on the moon, and will be launched in 2020 as planned. If the experiment is successful, many big cities in China can have such a "moon." Since the satellite is controllable, this extra moon can illuminate the city's night sky throughout the night, or it can be closed after a certain time to let the city fall asleep. This will be an impact on the development of human civilization. Editor / Li Dan
