793 Post-Nuclear Era
In May 68, a new round of space economic investment boom began.
In just one month, the five-star zone sent 3,000 people into space. A batch of new energy space stations were built in space orbit.
The completion of these new energy space stations is about to end for the earth's civilization. Because these energy space stations built on ultra-high orbits are a batch of nuclear space stations.

Nuclear weapons have been a powerful deterrent since the invention of World War II. After the end of World War II, countries around the world maintained a relatively powerful nuclear arsenal, once shrouded the earth in the shadow of nuclear war.
However, humans may not be very clear about the price concept of nuclear weapons. Generally speaking, for the same combat needs, using several cloud bombs to create areas with the same strike range as neutron bullets, the price of cloud bombs is only one fifth of the neutron bullets.
The separation technology of raw materials and the damage to the human body and the environment during processing have made the price of nuclear weapons very high. However, technology has developed now.

The new energy station in space is a huge titanium alloy iron barrel with a diameter of 300 meters and a length of 1,000 meters. It is comparable to a skyscraper.
The name of the entire energy station is the energy block factory. Nuclear fuel is the energy block.
The work of this factory is specifically about the treatment of spent fuel rods. In the early 21st century, the power plants of nuclear power plants only used part of the nuclear fuel. Uranium 235, uranium 238 and plutonium 239. After the nuclear fuel on the earth's surface was not burned, it will be produced by reprocessing plants.
Some of these nuclear factories produce a large amount of plutonium, such as Japan on another timeline, claiming to have plutonium that can produce thousands of atomic bombs. Indeed, if the plutonium 239 inside could be extracted, it would be able to produce a large number of nuclear weapons. But in fact, it would be impossible to separate in the 21st century.
Because this batch of nuclear waste is not only plutonium 239 but also plutonium 240, it is extremely difficult to separate the mass coefficients of both sides.
#
It is difficult to separate the mass numbers of uranium ore 235 and uranium 238. The total mass coefficients of the two goods above are 239 and 240 are only one seed, and the centrifugal separation technology is difficult to meet the standards. The molecular diffusion method using semi-permeable membranes cannot meet the industrial standards.
There is only one technology that can be separated, laser spectral separation. But in the early 21st century, it was just the direction.
The principle of laser separation is the same as that of Hertz in 1887 (high school physics).
When high-frequency photons are irradiated on metal plates, electrons will be overflowed from the metal plates, and the spectra of photoelectric effects of metal elements with different mass coefficients will be different. The laser separation method uses spectral irradiation to charge some isotopes in plutonium steam, which will separate in the electric field.
This is the most advanced technology for manufacturing nuclear bombs, but the most advanced does not mean no pollution. In fact, this thing is much more dangerous than a chemical factory. The factories that produce arsenic frost are even more dangerous. Even under strict standards, there will be trace leakage. The toxicity and lethal amount of plutonium can be referred to as stear poisoning. After working for a few years, it will ensure that it becomes bald.
#
As for whether Japan has the plutonium in nuclear waste that can be separated on another timeline, the Heisei waste cannot do it. At least Showa men can only open this nuclear industry technology line.
By the way, if Japan really opens this nuclear technology line, the Americans would not allow so much nuclear waste to be in the hands of Japan. In fact, the real threat to nuclear waste in the hands of Japan is to make dirty bombs.
#
In the early 21st century, technology made it extremely difficult to reprocess nuclear waste. However, as technology entered the space age, technology finally matured. Now, such a nuclear waste treatment factory is in the large titanium alloy cylinder in space.
Compared with the earth, deep space is a quiet environment with no gravity, which is an excellent environment for production systems affected by gravity.
Secondly, there will be no pollution. Even if there is heavy element steam leakage, the surrounding area is in space. This space factory will regularly replace the internal air and can be directly discharged into space. This is equivalent to sprinkling a spoonful of salt on Taihu Lake. These atoms of the emitted exhaust gas are most likely not to fall on the earth and spread directly into interstellar space.
#
The maturation of advanced technologies is based on industrial scale. Whether it is laser separation method or space rocket launch technology, they are all technologies from the last century, and they are all based on the technology of the Cold War in the last world. However, it was only used in war at that time.
In this era, with excellent holographic warehouses and stand-in technology, more than one billion people are willing to consume and continue to take out their wages to support marine development and space. This has given excellent material guarantees for the development of this technology. Before that, so much funds could not be collected by government technology grants and stocks alone.

The topic returns to this huge nuclear energy space factory
This huge cylinder space factory is connected to a long walkway, which is 6,000 meters long, like a thin long pole. One end of the long pole walkway is connected to the space factory, and the other end is connected to a frame disc, which contains spacecraft as small as white rice grains. These spacecraft are responsible for transporting substitutes and some exclusive scientific and technological personnel. Of course, they even transport the nuclear raw materials separated by the factory.
#
Two hundred kilometers away, another space station was in the middle of the thick glass Huang Shengqi looked up at the space factory with the red five-star symbol.
He brought his eyepiece to adjust the long-range perspective and saw that the nuclear raw material spacecraft belonging to the American Union returned (the spacecraft had the symbol of America during World War II).
#
After the third battle, as East Asia continued to dominate the policy of opening up, various technologies did not blockade on a large scale. Adhering to the principle of free trade, the Five-Star Zone made a market-based seizure of the reprocessing of nuclear waste around the world, helping various countries to handle nuclear fuel. (Technology is difficult to block, and other countries will do it after the blockade. Technology is the product of experimental summary. It is not a secret to encrypting magic.)
#
Since the completion of this super factory, the price of nuclear waste originally buried in the desert in countries around the world has risen sharply, which has also caused deep thought in the world. The price of weapon-level nuclear raw materials has been greatly reduced. A large number of nuclear power plants on the ground in various countries have also begun to increase significantly.
If World War II, the national strength was used to create an atomic bomb in the pre-nuclear era.
The nuclear weapons era of deuterium-tritium fusion materials that are cheaper than fission materials is the era of medium nuclear weapons.
And now the era of making the production of nuclear triggers easier is the post-nuclear weapon era.
#
With the development of industrial technology, the number of nuclear bombs in the world is now uncountable. Major powers in the world now have the ability to accumulate the number of nuclear weapons to more than six digits (and on another timeline, the US and the Soviet Union's nuclear weapons were only just over 60,000 at the peak of the Cold War).
#
Faced with an era that is becoming increasingly out of line, even the powerful gods have begun to panic about the changes in this era.
Yes, after 68 years, the whole world was in a state of fear. After the incident in the West Anhui incident, the person in the Five Star Zone seemed to have a broken string and had no scruples about the whole world. This kind of scruples showed in all aspects, and the spread of nuclear technology was a striking one. (The current nuclear technology cooperation in the Five Star Zone is limited to big countries, but there are no small countries in the world now.)
The reason for opening nuclear technology in the Five-Star Zone is to stabilize the space energy system. Because only when the global nuclear raw materials are cheaper can the industrial cost of space fall. The five-Star Zone’s space development plan is steadily progressing. This is the same as when international oil prices fell in the early 21st century and national construction and development are good.
But plutonium can do other things besides energy.
#
In order to obtain a stable supply chain of nuclear raw materials, the five-star zone has made rapid progress in weapon-level nuclear technology regardless of these cooperative forces.
This is like a businessman needs to collect firewood on a large scale and send an axe to everyone in the village, ignoring the conflicts within the village. He thought that enough firewood was collected and ignored the safety hazards that the axe gave to the village.
##
After the Western Anhui incident, various forces in the world have been waiting for the five-star zone to speak to the world. Because Lu An showed his power, the world automatically vacates a position of voice. The earth is so real, how big the fist and how big the seat is left?
However, if the five-star zone leads the development of the world, the next two years will be the five-star zone where the world is launching an "axe". Now all the forces in the world holding the "nuclear axe" are looking at each other.
#
These forces include North America.
With a clang, the spacecraft loaded with plutonium fuel moved closer to Xinggang. The sound waves quickly transmitted to various cabins with the metal frame of Xinggang.
In the space station, Huang Shengqi's eyes were blank and he watched as as much as one ton of nuclear raw materials transported over with the space shuttle bin.
He was stunned for a long time and swallowed a saliva. North America could get the nuclear fuel, and other forces could get it too.
Huang Shengqi looked up at the Galaxy Space Station in his perspective. Perhaps it is more appropriate to call it the Galaxy Spaceship now.
#
Now the large space stations built in the five-star zone are becoming more and more like spacecraft, wings and tail electric push systems. Internal ecological warehouses, super energy warehouses, all are available. The living area and repair systems are available. As long as you are not blind, you will understand what the five-star zone wants to do.
Five minutes later, after seeing a return capsule full of nuclear raw materials, he began to return from space to the North American continent.
Huang Shengqi boarded his space shuttle, and the white shuttle boat flew towards the Galaxy Space Station with blue flames.
