"Lin Fengyun?" Liu Haibo was a little curious, "You should rest now."
"Captain, I have rested for 8 hours. It is enough. I want to log into Ceres! And I will be the first!"
"Haha, captain, I know the reason!" A team member next to him started to boo, and he was similar in age to Lin Fengyun. "Xiao Linzi regarded the first login as unveiling. He wants to take Ceres, the bride, home!"
< br>
"Hey, hey, hey, what about the offspring..."
In an instant, the space lacking entertainment became lively.
"Okay, okay, everyone, calm down. Control the spaceship. If something happens, no one can escape!" Liu Haibo was really disturbed by the noise from these bastards. "Xiao Linzi, you can be the first to log in. But Be careful, the first one to log in is dangerous.”
"Don't worry, captain, I've already thought about it. But you must take pictures of me, and get the most handsome one! I want to shock the earth! Hehe..."
"The people on earth can no longer stop you!" Liu Haibo said something magically.
To land on Ceres, Liu Haibo decided to use the Explorer space shuttle; the first consideration was to save energy. At today's distances, sunlight is weak, photovoltaic cells are extremely inefficient, and energy consumption must be considered. Compared with Dream, the Explorer space shuttle has seats for eight people, and there is still a lot of space to store items, detection instruments, etc.
To be precise, the Dream aircraft was designed with the Earth's combat environment in mind; while the Adventure aircraft was designed with interstellar exploration activities in mind. Although the appearance of the two aircraft is similar, and some people even regard the Explorer as a dream brother branch, the design concepts of the two aircraft are different.
This time, 3 Dream aircraft will be used to transport 20 team members and corresponding materials for preliminary exploration; the first exploration team will be responsible for finding safe locations and building several residential areas within a certain range. . Give as many people as possible the opportunity to reach Ceres and participate.
"The first team and the second team are ready. Now that preliminary exploration has been carried out, Ceres has found no danger. It is like the moon, a dead star. But space exploration cannot find all problems, so we need to log in.
You will be the first batch of people to log in; dozens of precautions will not be repeated. Lin Fengyun, tell me the three most important things to note! ”
"Yes!" Lin Fengyun held his head high, "The first thing to pay attention to is the battery, the second thing to pay attention to is the oxygen, and the third thing to pay attention to is the seal of the space suit!"
Liu Haibo "Very well, as the first person to set foot on Ceres, you will need to stay alone for half an hour."
"Understood!" Lin Fengyun did not hesitate. It had been agreed at this time that no one knew whether there was any danger, and believed that the universe itself was undetectable - at least in the current technical room.
The first person to go up is not only taking risks, but also providing a good login basis for other team members.
Liu Haibo: "Let's go when ready. Pay attention to safety. Yang Zhencheng, you will launch our login time on the ground. Tell the company that we are about to conduct a great expedition. The honor of this moment not only belongs to us, but also A large number of scientific researchers working behind the scenes, as well as strong support from the company.”
"Okay. The time is 10:32 on March 6, 2051."
"Let's go!" Li Kai, captain of the first team, took the lead and floated out of the spaceship.
Expedition 101, 102, and 201 aircraft detached from the spacecraft almost at the same time and floated slowly in space.
"Attention everyone, I am Li Kai, the leader of the first team. Please note that Ceres has a small gravity and no atmosphere, so it cannot land using the normal shuttle take-off and landing methods. Please strictly follow the method in the simulation to land. Please land the space shuttle No. 201 first. .”
"Received. Lin Fengyun received." Being the first person to log into Ceres is not an easy task.
In the pitch-black space, three triangular-shaped, gray-colored space shuttles slowly detached themselves from the space shuttle without starting their engines, and slowly fell under the gravity of Ceres. Because Ceres has no atmosphere, if you want to land on Ceres, the aircraft obviously cannot take off and land in the same way as on Earth - using the lift of the wings and other methods.
The Expedition 201 aircraft took the lead. When it was still 100 kilometers away from Ceres, the engine started to start slightly. However, the way the aircraft landed was butt down - a kind of rocket landing method.
The plane circled around Ceres while slowly descending; above the vast land was a small black spot, dots of fire bursting out. This was the first time that this desolate world ushered in the dawn of technology.
"20 kilometers above the ground, the speed is a bit fast. The engine increases output by 2.3%."
"10 meters above the ground..." "Boom!" This is the sound of the engine suddenly erupting. When it is three meters above the ground, the speed of the aircraft is completely reduced to zero, and then it falls freely under the gravity of the planet. Otherwise, various problems may occur to the space shuttle carrying initial velocity.
But there is another problem, that is, the space shuttle cannot land on its butt like a rocket.
When it was only about two meters above the ground, the engine started working again, and the space shuttle slowly balanced and landed on the smooth ice at a speed of three meters, gliding a full hundred meters away - the gravity here is really too low. So much so that the friction is very small.
"Report to the general control, Space Shuttle 201 landed safely, apply for landing."
"According to the plan, we will first explore the surrounding area for 30 minutes before starting the landing. The remaining space shuttles are preparing to land." Liu Haibo was meticulous.
"No. 101 is preparing to land, countdown is 10..."
"No. 101 landed successfully, 3245 meters away from Plane 201. In perfect condition."
"No. 102 is preparing to land, countdown is 10, 9..." "Successful landing, 1457 meters away from No. 201, 2771 meters away from No. 101."
"Lin Fengyun landed on the 201st. He stayed near the plane for half an hour and was free to move around. But please be careful not to leave the safety coverage of the plane."
"Received! Lin Fengyun received it!" Lin Fengyun sounded a little excited, and he actually got the right to log in first. Although this requires half an hour of dangerous exploration time, which is the so-called guinea pig; but being the first to log in, as the first person from the Master Company to log on to the outer space planet, all this is enough. This is even the first time humans have landed on a planet outside the habitable zone!
Slowly opening the hatch, you are greeted by a desolate world. Some ice layers are also mixed with a large amount of dust, frozen clay, etc. It looks beautiful from a distance and has a bit of a dreamy feel, but when you look up close, , just a little ugly.
The gravity here is so low, the acceleration due to gravity is only 0.27. A fully equipped astronaut weighs about 200kg. The personnel of the Master Company are strong and strong, so they try to choose spacesuits with complete functions and sufficient backup, which makes the spacesuits a little bloated. Fortunately, the people from the master company can move their backs, and there is no gravity in space.
Now, the mass of 200kg only shows a force of 54n on this planet, which can be regarded as a weight of 11 kilograms. Ten seconds later, Lin Fengyun officially touched the ground with both feet, and an excitement broke out.
