Five years passed in a flash.

During these five years, Shuguangxing’s environmental transformation project has never been interrupted and has been underway.

Compared with the beginning, the Dawn Star at this time already looked like an earth.

But it's just a little bit.

It still takes a lot of time before humans truly leave the closed city and start life under the blue sky and white clouds.

At the same time, human body reinforcement projects are also being promoted.

With all members of the Academy of Sciences and Parliament leading by example, the speed of human body reinforcement projects has increased significantly.

Although some old stubborn people still do not trust the so-called genetic modification technology, looking at the relatives and friends around them, and even strangers they had never met on the street, they took off their exoskeleton armor and turned them off and they had to run every night.

The home version of the medical cabin, breathing freely...

These old stubborn people couldn't help but feel disturbed and joined the human body reinforcement project.

It seems that everything is thriving.

But after five years of fermentation, a problem has become increasingly serious.

...

"According to the latest calculations, the People's Union's comprehensive fertility curve will intersect with the comprehensive mortality curve in three hundred years."

Zero's voice echoed in the office.

In the holographic projection, there is a winding curve diagram.

The ever-declining curve above represents the comprehensive fertility rate of human civilization.

And the slowly rising below is the comprehensive mortality curve of human civilization.

Compared with the calculation results a few years ago, the time when the two curves intersect is shortened by nearly two hundred years.

Lu Yongchang sat on an office chair, looking at the two curves that continued to extend and finally intersect in the holographic projection, and sighed softly.

As shown in the chart.

As time goes by, the older generation from Earth and even from Proxima Centauri continues to die, while the number of newborns has decreased year by year. In the end, it has led to the comprehensive fertility curve and the comprehensive mortality curve forming the "Kiss of Death".

”.

Especially in the last five years.

The number of newborns is falling sharply every year!

For interstellar civilization, the intersection of these two curves means that civilization will decline and eventually disappear.

Like Proxima Centara human civilization, the Human Resources finally encountered this fatal problem.

However, there are still some differences between the Human Resources and Proxima Centauri human civilization.

Proxima Centauri is a population crisis caused by too small population base and too scarce survival resources.

And the human couplet is exactly the opposite.

The population base is huge, and billions of people in the [Home Ship] have not been awakened and are still in hibernation.

Survival resources are also rich.

After entering the third-level civilization, especially after computer technology made another breakthrough, zero computing power was greatly improved, and the productivity level of human civilization was also greatly improved.

In a hundred years, the environmental transformation of Shuguang Star will be successful.

Human beings will also walk out of the narrow and closed cities, and the billions of people in the hibernation cabin will be awakened one by one.

But this still cannot solve the problem of a decline in the overall fertility rate.

The reason is very simple.

Compared with the Earth Age or the Proxima Centauri B Age, the cost of fertility on Dawn Star is too high.

Whether it is human body reinforcement projects or life expectancy technology, they are all aimed at fully developed adults.

Therefore, before adulthood, human beings were still as weak as the Earth's era.www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm

This also leads to a problem.

Being in the 1.9g gravity environment, fertilization has become a huge problem.

A newborn baby will certainly not be able to withstand the gravity of up to 1.9g on the Dawn Star.

Of course, the China National People's Political Consultative Conference also made corresponding solutions.

Dawn Star Synchronous Orbit Large Space Station.

A ring-shaped space station can generate 1g of equivalent gravity by rotating, and to some extent, it can simulate the earth's environment to a great extent - this is extremely friendly to the growth and development of infants and young children.

Only when you enter adulthood and these new generations born in the space station can you accept the transformation of human body reinforcement and life expectancy extension technology.

The time of growth and development varies from person to person, with an average time of about 18-20 years.

For the safety of the new generation, the time for the two transformations of human strengthening and lifespan extension was set at 25 years old.

That is, the time when the human brain is fully developed and matured.

At the same time, this is also the time for the new generation of humans to perform the [Acquaintance].

Only after completing the [Genesis Ceremony] and receiving the two transformations of human body strengthening and life expectancy extension can they be the real new human beings.

There is nothing wrong with this regulation for newborns.

But for parents, this regulation is the culprit of the sharp decline in fertility rates!

Under the traditional parenting model, it is impossible for both parents to abandon their children and live alone on the surface of Dawn Star.

This creates an embarrassing scene.

It takes at least 20 years for both parents to have a child.

For new humans whose average lifespan is as long as one thousand years, twenty years are nothing.

What's more, the parliament has various complete safeguards for this long fertility period.

You can even use childbirth as an excuse to achieve up to twenty years of paid leave.

That's what I said.

But it will really fall on my head, another scene will be another.

Even if today's human technology can make the hidden costs of traveling back and forth on synchronous tracks and ground at will for twenty years, it is unbearable for ordinary people.

then……

During these five years.

There are few people in the three built synchronous orbit space stations.

The number of newborns is also declining year by year.

In an attempt to save the declining overall birth rate, the Academy of Sciences launched a medical cabin for infants and young children two years ago.

After the newborn is born, these infants and toddlers can enter a shallow hibernation in this special medical cabin.

The so-called shallow hibernation state is very similar to the deep sleep state, and the human body's metabolism and growth will not stop.

in other words.

Infants and toddlers can "sleep" in this special medical cabin until they become adults.

Then complete the [Genesis Gift] and start your new life.

This greatly reduces the time cost for both parents to raise the next generation, but it also breeds another serious problem.

Educational issues in the new generation.

No one would be willing to teach a twenty-five-year-old, strong adult to go to the bathroom, eat and walk.

What's more, learning language skills is often carried out during infancy and toddlerhood.

then……

The replacement plan was declared bankrupt as soon as it was born.
