Half-immortal civilization

Chapter 374 Exploration, Non-stop Footsteps

The Rising space shuttle slowly docked next to the New World space base, and slowly released the space capsules of the Adventure spacecraft in the cabin one by one.

"Release the first cabin, the manned space capsule." As the chief engineer of the spacecraft, Li Guoyi directed on the spot.Although he has reached middle age, he is still hale and hearty and healthy.The years of joining Master Company have been the most fulfilling years.There is no intrigue, and life is good; as a scientific researcher, you only need to work hard.

"Report, the release is complete."

"Okay. Don't move anything else first. The engine in cabin one is warming up. Be careful not to rotate it. Just warm up."

It is not a simple matter to complete the warm-up of the huge Tiger Dan No. [-] engine. It needs to be heated slowly by using hot air.If such a huge engine is to be started, it is best to be preheated, otherwise the severe thermal expansion and contraction will shorten the life of the engine.

It took a full 20 minutes for the engine to warm up to 200 degrees and reach the set temperature.

"Let's release the No. [-] cabin, the living supplies cabin."

"Report, the release is complete."

"Okay, engine warm-up procedure. End of report."

This time the warm-up time is slightly shorter, 19 minutes.However, warming up is not as short as possible, but appropriate; otherwise, it is not warming up.In addition, of course, the time should not be too long, as that would waste energy.

"The report is over, the preheating is complete, and the temperature is 200.536 degrees."

"Okay, let's start the electromagnetic gravity according to the steps."

A strong electromagnetic force is generated between the two cabins. In space without air and gravity barriers, the two cabins, which are [-] meters apart, are slowly approaching.This is space work, and some care is required.

The speed is really too slow, plus it is necessary to prevent the final collision; the electromagnetic field is turned on and off for a while; even the same magnetic poles have to be activated to slow down the speed.

It took a full three hours to complete the assembly of the No. [-] and No. [-] cabins.And in this, two hours were spent in the time when the space capsule approached slightly.

At the moment of the final meeting, the magnetic poles in the same direction are activated instantaneously to avoid collisions; such magnetic poles are activated in a pulse manner, and when the distance between the two cabins is only 5 cm, the relative speed just happens to be zero.

The next thing is for the staff to go up and start turning the screws with a huge electric wrench to completely close the two cabins together.There are 2 fixing screws between the two compartments. This is an extremely boring job; and because of the space suit, the movement is slow.After all, the process of threading screws at the beginning still needs to be done manually.

The cabins of the spaceships were released one by one and spliced ​​together one by one.The final result is a 40x30x50 meter cuboid spaceship!To be honest, this is equivalent to a master company recreating a space base that is being built in Europe and the United States.Especially the perfect equipment, which really made European and American countries drool again; of course, there was sweat along the way.Don't be so scary, okay: It is said that there are several rail guns in every cabin above!
This is not a spaceship, this is a mobile fort!A standard murder weapon!

But the completion of the assembly does not mean that everything is over; because of the limitation of the load of the Rise space shuttle, the transport cabins are all empty, and there will be a large amount of materials that need to be transported later and will be stuffed into the spacecraft.Of course, some materials have already been transported to the New Continent space base in advance.

Complete assembly, plus final inspection, the time has come to February 2th.In space, be careful not to be careful, human beings have too little exploration of space!We even know very little about the dangers in space.

"I wish you all the best!" Li Guoyi bid farewell to Liu Haibo and others. After completing the assembly and final inspection of the spacecraft, Li Guoyi needed to return to the ground.It's really uncomfortable to stay in space for a long time.Especially wearing a spacesuit for a long time and working in space for a long time requires excretion.

But when Li Guoyi said this, Liu Haibo pulled his face down: "Li Gong, there is only solar wind in space."

"..." Li Guoyi's soul went out of his body in an instant, "Okay, I wish you all the best!"

"Haha..." After saying this, the two looked at each other and smiled.It's a little joke.

"Guys, say hello to your family. Tomorrow, at 2:5 on February 12th, we will officially set off!" Liu Haibo announced the news.

For a time, the communication between space and the ground was extremely frequent, and even those female stars who followed were allowed to communicate with the ground.At this time, apart from the fact that they couldn't clearly point out that they came to space for some kind of work, they could talk about the rest.In fact, in the entertainment industry, this is no big deal!With this, they can even enter into space tourism and adventure, and enjoy the treatment of a master company, which makes too many people envious.

On the other hand, the expedition members of Master Company said goodbye to their families on the ground with a heavy heart.This time, due to adequate preparations, it is expected that the expedition will take at least 3 months and a maximum of one year; it depends on the actual exploration situation.Of course, if you encounter irresistible danger, etc., you can return immediately.

It's just that relatives on the ground are worried about the team members who are about to go on an expedition, and it is inevitable.You must know that this space exploration requires a will to be signed. This is not kept secret within the master company. After all, when the expedition team was selected, this condition was made public.

Among these team members, many are married and have offspring, but there are also some who are not married and only have parents at home.

No one is not worried that once there is danger in space, it is almost impossible to survive.But all the team members were not timid.At the moment of making a decision, there is no regrets.

On February 2015, 2, at 5:12 local time in China, Master Company officially announced to the world that the first human space exploration was officially launched.Accompanying are:
One spaceship with 120 personnel, 20 space shuttles Dream and 20 space shuttles Explorer.The estimated total consumption of funds this time is 1.2 trillion Huaxia coins.

The live broadcast from the New Continent space base made the whole world feel that mankind has taken another big step:

The 120 people slowly left the New World space base by adjusting the propulsion device on the space suits; they slid towards the Adventure spacecraft along the kilometer-long rope. The 40 space shuttles are densely bound on the surface of the spacecraft, which looks like scales from a distance.

A hatch in the middle of one side of the spaceship opened slowly, and all personnel entered in a single file; then the rear hatch slowly closed.The kilometer-long rope slowly left the spaceship as the hatch closed, and was recovered into the New Continent space base.

About half an hour later, the spaceship suddenly moved.Red-hot gas spewed out from behind, and then slowly turned orange-yellow, incandescent, light blue... and then gradually disappeared.But anyone who understands knows that this is not disappearing, but the temperature is too high, and the ripples are no longer visible to the naked eye.

Meanwhile, the hulking Adventurer spacecraft began to slowly accelerate.

There are a total of 12 Tiger Dan-2.4 engines with a total thrust of [-] tons, which is an astonishing figure.It is arguably the most powerful propulsion system ever built by mankind.

However, the self-weight of the Adventure spacecraft is as high as more than 4000 tons. With the materials transported later, various equipment, and the attached space shuttle, the total weight reaches 3 tons.

The engine is working at full capacity, starting to accelerate at 0.8 times the acceleration of gravity.The huge spaceship was extremely cumbersome at the beginning. Against the huge space background, it felt like it hadn't moved much for more than ten seconds.

"Our first stop, exploring the asteroid belt and Mars!"

The huge and proud voice spread all over the world through the public channel!
