Earthball humans can already prepare metal hydrogen in the laboratory, but no second laboratory has completed the experiment yet. It can only be said that it is suspected that it has been prepared, stored, transported, weaponized, etc. are far away.

However, as a battery, bomb, metal hydrogen is extremely promising.

The information provided by the octopus shows that there are two materials required for metal hydrogen bombs, namely solid hydrogen alloy and cracking alloy.

Strictly speaking, both materials are not metals, they are special compounds formed by metals and metals.

There is only one effect of solid hydrogen alloy, which can make liquid hydrogen form metal hydrogen at a lower pressure, which is similar to adding dust needed for crystallization to freeze it in supercooled water. Otherwise, a container that maintains millions of atmospheric pressures, how could this thing be transported in the ancient atmospheric environment? It is a waste of death.

Fracturing alloy is a material with a larger pressure and denser the higher the pressure. The container it makes is very special. At the beginning, liquid hydrogen will penetrate directly and will soon be closed as the system is pressurized. Then, the thickness of the inner wall of the container is further increased by using the penetration process technology to continue to pressurize the internal pressure. It can be said that this thing is the biggest contributor to the large-scale application and transportation of metal hydrogen.

Hydrogen solid materials and cracked alloys are both major materials in metal hydrogen applications and are divided into many types. What octopus provides is only made at a certain cost under ancient technology, and there are also many that must be processed in space, so there is no need to provide them.

The lower the technical level, the higher the risk level, but this part needs to be viewed according to the situation.

In the history book of Octopus, there were eight major accidents in the combination he provided, five of which were direct explosions, two of which were raw material explosions, and three were metal hydrogen explosions.

Everything is divided into two sides. Before the eighth major accident caused merchants to make up their minds to replace technology, the combination produced more than 2 billion tons of metal hydrogen. Only when there was a major accident was there for every 250 million tons of metal hydrogen produced on average.

Human operation will increase the incidence of accidents, but it may not happen. Moreover, the probability is not a number after the test of time. I believe that as long as you are cautious enough, it will not be a big problem for a few years to work safely before everyone relaxes their vigilance.

In addition, judging from the situation of earth balls against monsters, if a nuclear bomb substitute cannot be taken out for a certain period of time, there is no need to consider the accident issue at all, and civilization will be wiped out.

Why are nuclear bomb replacements needed?

Because of the supply chain.

With hundreds of planets like Earth Ball, the distribution of nuclear material resources cannot be just right. With the increase in monster attacks, various industrial chains are broken, and nuclear materials cannot be spared. With the level of planetary civilization, they cannot be able to defend wherever they want to stay. If they want to fill in their lives, it depends on whether the logistics capabilities such as equipment can be guaranteed.

In the world where octopus is located, many branches of civilization appeared in the post-immigration era. Planetary branches have long experienced various extinctions, including but not limited to geomagnetic disappearances, Resident Evil, and drastic temperature changes.

Of course, there were also nuclear materials that quickly depleted. As an alternative energy source between fission and fusion, metal hydrogen was a particularly popular development direction in those places at that time.

In the production process of metal hydrogen, only water is needed, or water vapor can also replace the water consumption in raw materials, and the production conditions are not harsh.

From the speed of technology to practicality, explosives will undoubtedly be faster, just like explosives to bullets, nuclear explosions to nuclear power, hydrogen bombs to controllable fusion, etc., if the technical level is not weaponized enough, the explosion will be regarded as a weapon directly, and the effect will not be different with the support of the missile system.

The density of hydrogen is very low, and under standard pressure is less than 90 grams per cubic meter. The pressure generated by the sublimation and gasification of metal hydrogen is enough to make it a super weapon. In the aerobic atmosphere, it can add various strange bonuses, including explosions, large-area freezing, high-density shock waves, etc.

Its biggest disadvantage is that it cannot release gamma waves that have the strength to decompose all molecules. But in addition, the power of a simple physical strike is not much worse than that of a fission nuclear bomb, and it is environmentally friendly.

In order to get the new weapon to the stage as soon as possible, Octopus also added a metal hydrogen development overview behind two pieces of material materials.

A set of technology produces billions of tons of metal hydrogen, which undoubtedly has seemingly broad prospects, at least in the aerobic atmosphere.

The calorific value of hydrogen is very high, reaching four to five times that of coal. The combustion only produces pure water, so even high-pressure hydrogen is practically comparable to natural gas. Liquid or solid metal hydrogen is actually metal. Even if the density is low, it must be calculated in tons per cubic meter. Due to the very high pressure, the kinetic energy generated by the pressure relief process exceeds direct combustion. If it is released and burned again, several times of energy will be obtained.

The application of electricity is similar to that of fuel.

Don’t believe the ancient predictions of water blowing. Metal hydrogen is indeed a normal temperature superconductor, but the environment in which it exists cannot be used as a superconductor. The biggest problem is that it cannot remain in the metal state at normal pressure. How can electricity enter and exit the ultra-high voltage environment become a problem. Superconductors are also used in the high-voltage wall? So what conductance does metal hydrogen have to be superconductors?

The subsequent technical direction of metal hydrogen is actually to participate in low-temperature processing as an easy-mold mold. This is a complete system for material processing in ultra-high pressure environments. The disadvantages are similar to superconducting dilemma. No matter what method is used to enter and exit the workpiece in ultra-high pressure environment, it involves multiple channels of pressurization, pressure relief, and pressure relief actually removes energy and even matter. The factory scale must be large enough to invest and take out a sufficient number of raw materials and workpieces at a time to appreciate the various advantages of this processing method.

However, the larger the ultra-high pressure container, the more difficult it is to build. The capacity limit is predictable, and the future is far from building block factories.

It also has energy weapon branches and other directions.

There is a short comment at the end of the data: metal hydrogen is ultimately the result of human energy compression. Compared with those methods that exchange energy for loss of mass, the road ahead of metal hydrogen is only about three meters long. Of course, we can still expect that one day, humans master the technology of directly using diversion to stabilize nuclear fusion in a limited space. At that time, the energy contained in metal hydrogen is not only the one in front of us.

Human fusion technology uses various compounds such as deuterium, tritium, helium, etc. In this regard, the era in which octopus has not evolved too much. Unless the ratio of input energy and output energy is not considered, it can only fusion something else.

Directly using diffuser to perform nuclear fusion is the power of a star. If it can be done, the Dyson ball will also be overshadowed, because in addition to using diffuser to perform nuclear fusion, a star can also directly fusion carbon into iron.

When it is true that the benefit of carbon and iron pooling energy is still greater than the expenses, we can say arrogantly: the timetable of the universe's heat silence is decided by humans!

After a big blow, things still have to be done little by little.

The C National Academy of Sciences, which was trapped from aliens (future people), instantly received a grant and carried out preliminary research.

Materials science has never been mysterious. It has countless similarities with exhaustive methods. Today, science has developed to this day, but it can only carry out small-scale exhaustive results under the premise of vague directions.

The materials provided by aliens are not difficult to synthesize after seeing detailed information containing synthesis conditions and sequence.

The solid hydrogen alloy has similarities with the solid hydrogen materials used in some current batteries, but the effect is very bizarre.

Scientists used a container filled with a small amount of solid hydrogen alloy to conduct hydrogen liquefaction experiments and found that it would cause hydrogen liquefaction at normal pressure at minus 241 degrees Celsius. In the standard group, the temperature required more than 11 atmospheric pressure to achieve hydrogen liquefaction.

Because hydrogen itself is unwilling to liquefy under this condition, the liquid hydrogen in the container increases in boiling, and after reaching a certain amount, it is achieved equilibrium. After several experiments, it has been proved that the total amount of liquid hydrogen that finally reaches boiling equilibrium is proportional to the weight of the solid hydrogen alloy.

The variable is the integrity of a solid hydrogen alloy. Compared with multiple small columns, a cylinder alloy has a smaller surface area, but a larger solid hydrogen quantity.

Continuing the experiment, all of them were used to use a single column alloy, and the results showed that the total amount of liquid hydrogen and the mass of the alloy were at a fixed ratio!

The experiment of cracking alloys is quite troublesome. The more pressurized this thing, the higher the strength, and it ruined a laboratory equipment, but it did not measure all the current data.

In theory, can't this feature be used to make high-strength materials?

Alien materials are so outrageous, no!

When there is no internal and external pressure, the internal stress release of the cracked alloy will gradually return to its initial state. The process is not straight, and the changes will become slower and slower as the internal force is released. After observing the pain of the person being idle, it will take about two hundred years to completely restore the initial state.

The experiment on the generation of metal hydrogen that combines the last two materials attaches great importance to it, and directly cleared a laboratory in an unmanned land, and airlifters and equipment used to do experiments.

Two materials specially designed to produce metal hydrogen made the experiments surprisingly smooth. Two days later, a spherical object with a total weight of three kilograms was created.

Until the thing was made, a centrifugal experiment was conducted to prove that the inside was indeed solid metal. The experts did not understand what was happening in the process, which they did not know. But one thing can be confirmed that the internal pressure was far less than the one million atmospheric pressure, and at most it was "only" tens of thousands.

According to the data, when shaping the finished product, a small pit was left. It is the pressure relief point of the finished metal hydrogen, and the power to detonate it also enters from here.

Unexpectedly, what happened next was even more bizarre.

I tried it twice, but I didn't explode the ball!

It's okay if it didn't explode. The second time the ball was blown away from the fixture aimed by various detection instruments. In order to avoid the extremely dangerous items being poached by others, a regiment of soldiers was temporarily transferred to help find them.

As soon as everyone thinks, stop messing around and ask about aliens.

The octopus cooperates very well. The simplest answer is an electric stove. If you want to explode in milliseconds, use a high-power laser.

Without considering repeated use, the technical threshold for releasing high-energy lasers in a short period of time is not high. Contact a special research institute and got several lasers.

But maybe because everyone is not used to dealing with aliens, they misunderstood others' definition of high power, and as a result, they delayed the explosion for a full 100 seconds after a laser pestle.

The power of the explosion was not disappointing, including a three-kilogram ball with a shell, and the power of the explosion was nearly half a ton of TNT. This was the result of a simple pressure explosion driving shock wave. If we can further find ways to detonate hydrogen while detonating the pressure, the power would be several orders of magnitude, and it seemed that it could easily reach thousands of tons of equivalents.

However, everyone began to understand what the octopus meant by high power. It was probably necessary to penetrate the sphere and the metal hydrogen inside to explode in an instant.
