The idea of human beings carrying the Earth on their back in the universe is heartbreaking. However, "The Wandering Earth" has become the biggest hit of domestic science fiction movies. However, the biggest flaw in this work is that it only solves the immediate problem and turns a blind eye to the consequences. Is the same true for sci-fi?
The Earth lost its sun and became an icy planet with no trace of life, including plants. Such an earth makes human beings can only hide in underground cities, but how can humans, as animals, solve the problem of growing food and raising cattle and sheep?This touches on the fundamental issue of space colonization, which is the food that humans eat in alien colonization**.
Although Earth is the home planet of humanity, the Earth adrift in the universe has similar conditions to extraterrestrial colonization. Humans living in underground cities face huge food needs, and how to grow them in a limited space will be a huge problem. We do not discuss the material needs of underground cities to meet the needs of billions of people. According to the setting of "The Wandering Earth", the population of the earth has already decreased significantly at that time.
In this case, the limited cultivation and animal husbandry in the underground city can meet human needs. In the limited space of the underground city, humans can use nuclear fusion technology to create an "artificial sun" to provide light and heat for plants, and then realize soilless cultivation of plants through artificially equipped nutrient solutions. There is no fertile soil underground, and only soilless cultivation can meet the demand.
As for animal husbandry, raising cattle and sheep in underground cities is too burdensome, but fortunately there is the cultivation of cell-based meat, which is a piece of meat cultivated in the laboratory and a sunrise industry for mankind today. However, all this premise is based on a significant reduction in population. It is impossible to feed 10 billion people in underground cities. And the labor shortage caused by the depopulation can only be compensated by robots.
Is this kind of wandering life really the future that human beings yearn for?Perhaps, we need to re-examine this sci-fi future outlined by "The Wandering Earth".
Frozen Earth: A deep reflection on The Wandering Earth.
The Wandering Earth has become a standout of domestic science fiction films with its shocking scenes and fascinating storyline, however, this film avoids deep thinking about the consequences while solving the immediate problem. The ** on this issue in the article is even more thought-provoking.
Against the background of the Earth's loss of the sun, becoming a frozen planet, humanity can only live in underground cities. This scene makes me wonder how humans can survive in such an environment, and how can we solve the problem of growing food and raising livestockThe concept of nuclear fusion technology and "artificial sun" mentioned in the article, although reasonable in science fiction, seems to ignore the complexity and possible negative effects of their practical operation.
The extreme restrictions on farming and animal husbandry in the underground city made me wonder if the living conditions in the underground city were really as ideal as they were in the movieAre there deeper questions in the questioning points in the article, such as whether human morality, ethics, social structure, and political system will change dramatically as a result of such a living environment?The movie doesn't seem to dig deep into these underlying issues.
Labor shortages due to depopulation are mentioned, and the article mentions that robots may be a means to fill this gap. However, whether this will lead to a drastic change in the structure of society, and whether robots can actually replace human jobs, are questions worth pondering. Will movies become more reliant on artificial intelligence and robots in the future, and what impact will this have on our society and culture?
Finally, the article questions whether the wandering life is the future that human beings yearn for. This is indeed a question that requires deep thought, should human beings really give up the natural environment on the earth's surface in order to survive?While pursuing technology and survival, should we also reflect on the relationship between humans and the planet, and whether the way humans live should be more sustainable?
Overall, "The Wandering Earth" gave us a visual and emotional feast, but the problem points in the article made me pay more attention to the aspects that were not covered in the film. Science fiction works should not only create a fantasy world, but also trigger the audience to think deeply about the future of mankind, which may be the real excellent science fiction.
