Half-immortal civilization

Boom... The engine roared again.There is no atmosphere on Ceres, and only by sheer speed can it break out of the gravitational circle.

After investigation these days, 10 explorer space shuttles have landed here, and a large number of instruments and equipment, even recovered nano-satellites, etc., need to be sent back to the spacecraft.

Liu Haibo directs on the spot. "Airplane Expedition 101 ready to take off!"

"Received on the 101nd."

This once barren ice field has been cleaned up now, and there is a wide runway extending into the darkness with almost no ups and downs.This is a 5-kilometer-long runway dedicated to the takeoff and landing of space shuttles.

Ceres does not have the same atmosphere as the earth, which is not enough for the space shuttle to take off by lift, so the spacecraft constructed by the space shuttle has only one way to take off: accelerate and accelerate again!
The construction of slopes is a huge project, which is obviously not suitable for the use of temporary bases, so this method was adopted in the end. Anyway, there is no air resistance, and the initial speed is still useful in space, so the take-off method of the runway was finally adopted.

The space shuttle 101 taxied slowly to the runway. In a low-gravity environment, don't dare to use excessive force, otherwise the car will not be able to stop.After getting on the runway and adjusting the direction, it was already 3 minutes.

"Report, No. 101 is ready, and the application takes off."

"Wait a minute, the team exploring the road ahead hasn't responded yet."

Every time you take off, you need to check the road. After all, this is a runway built on ice.The high-temperature gas injected by the engine is destructive to the runway.Therefore, the planes must be separated by at least 10 minutes, and the next plane will not be allowed to take off until the ice is re-frozen and solidified.

"Inspected and in good condition. 101 cleared for takeoff."

Phew... The scorching air was ejected for more than ten meters, the ground under his feet began to vibrate slightly, and the plane taxied slowly.On this, due to low gravity, low friction, etc., the acceleration of the aircraft can only reach 20 meters.In order to reach and exceed the orbiting speed of Ceres, which is about 350 meters per second, it takes 18 seconds, and the sliding distance is as high as 3240 meters.

Boom... At the end of the runway, the plane raised its head from the ground at a speed of more than 350 meters per second, and suddenly rushed into space.When the speed is higher than 350 meters, the gravitational force of Ceres can no longer restrain the space shuttle. At this time, the space shuttle is like a cannonball fired one by one, sticking to the ground and shooting into space.

And because of the low acceleration, this has become a pleasure for some people, especially actresses, who often entangle themselves with the planes taking off and landing, feeling the power of technology.

One after another, the planes continued to rush into space, and ten space shuttles, full of people, equipment, samples, etc., bid farewell to this world for a while.

All shuttles are quickly reattached to the spacecraft, and all personnel return to their positions.The huge spaceship slowly accelerated, gradually getting rid of the gravity of Ceres, and rushed into the vast interstellar space.

"Report to the headquarters that we have left Ceres and are about to go to Mars. Ask the headquarters to see if the plan to explore Mars remains unchanged.

It is now 2000 million miles away from Mars. If it follows the original plan, it is expected to arrive in about 15 days.

In addition, tell the ground that according to calculations, the speed of 1000 kilometers is not the best speed for saving energy, because considering the consumption of life support devices, 2000 kilometers is considered a more reasonable speed. "

"Okay, it has been sent." This time, the superstring communication was still used.In such critical places, time is of the essence.

In less than 1 minute, I received a reply: "Reply to the spaceship. The speed of 2000 kilometers is allowed. But please note that the place you are about to pass may erupt sunspots. Please be vigilant along the way. If you have enough energy , please try your best to turn on the magnetic field generating device. The journey is smooth."

The spaceship began to accelerate slowly. Although a lot of materials were consumed during this period, the spaceship now carried a lot of specimens, etc. In fact, the overall quality did not change much.

The spacecraft moved forward with an acceleration of 8 meters, which made the team members feel a little heavy after adapting to the low gravity for a few days.Fortunately, everyone has cultivated themselves and got used to it quickly; even some female stars feel very heavy, even if they have not stopped exercising.

"Everyone, let me tell you a piece of good news. The spacecraft will accelerate to 2000 kilometers this time, and the estimated acceleration time is 70 hours. Let us feel the rapidity. The speed of 2000 kilometers per second is as high as 720 million kilometers per hour. In the future, if we If we can settle down on Venus, then we only need about 6 hours to reach Venus at the shortest distance. In fact, we are now going from the northernmost point of China to the southernmost point, even by high-speed rail, it takes more than ten hours."

"Oh..." A group of team members who hadn't calmed down were excited again.This is actually an honor, the master company once again created a miracle in the world.And they are the executors of this miracle.

Everyone excitedly recorded this news in their diaries, perhaps, this will be one of the best memories when they get old.

The sound of the rumbling engine is the sound of technology. Under this sound, everyone is still enthusiastically preparing for the journey to Mars.Extraterrestrial life can be found on a small and almost neglected planet Ceres, so everyone is full of hope for the next stop Mars.

"Report, abnormal solar activity was detected, the magnetic field was chaotic, and the magnetic field lines were broken. The magnetic field generator has been fully activated." Su Jiuyang, who was manipulating the spacecraft, commanded calmly.This has been the lowest 50 hours since the spacecraft accelerated, and the speed of the spacecraft is close to 1500 kilometers.

Now that Liu Haibo has rested, Su Jiuyang is actually the person with the greatest command power.But all orders on the spaceship must be strictly followed.It is related to the lives of all people, the exploration of master companies, and the vision that the world desires.

"Radiation has been detected, and the intensity is higher than usual. We have encountered a solar storm. Please get ready, take your positions, and strictly monitor your operating dashboards. In order to prevent electronic instruments from being burned, the entire spacecraft will temporarily shut down non-essential power for 30 minutes until We're out of range of the storm.

In the meantime, please do not panic.The physical life support device in our spacecraft is enough to last for six hours without power. "

Crackling... piece by piece of power was turned off, even the power supply of the engine.In the end, only the main control room and individual detectors remained.

Crackling...a screeching sound rang out from the spaceship.That is the electromagnetic noise produced by the spacecraft rushing into the range of the solar storm.There are even some flashes of phantom light, which flashed away in the spaceship.Some alarms sounded continuously, but they went out quickly.

Looking from the outside, a colorful and dreamy light ball with a diameter of seven to eight thousand kilometers is advancing rapidly in the sky, like a meteor passing over the earth, but this meteor is a bit big; kilometer.More like a mutated comet in space.

The powerful magnetic field captures the charged particles erupting from the sun, and then forms colorful lights in the magnetic field, and is thrown far into the rear.

But this scene was captured by more than a dozen telescopes on the earth more than 20 minutes later.Seeing this scene, every individual and country has a different mood.While he was still engaged in fierce space competition, Master Company had already flown to the other side of the sun, almost facing the earth across the sun.
