Deep Space Fleet

2265.9.27, the final departure day.

The cold above Europa was empty, and the starry sky was empty, without the busy scenes of the past. All industrial spacecraft will make way for the departure of the Earth Age.

眺 From the astronomical observation room, you can see various industrial indicators on the ground. They lined up a variety of regular images, constantly flickering.

古老 This ancient aviation language is not subject to any interference due to electromagnetic radiation. It is a content that every astronaut must learn.

Watching the time approaching minute by minute, Captain Ma whispered, "I hope our future mother star is better than this one ..."

"It should be theoretically." A nearby assistant responded, "Our home star is brighter and gravity is more suitable."

The mass of 581g of Glitzer is 3.1 times that of the earth, the radius is 1.4 times that of the earth, and the theoretical gravity is 1.08 times that of the earth.

I only use current observation methods to know the specific atmospheric conditions of this planet.

"Did the results of astronomical observations come out in the solar system?" Captain Ma asked again.

结果 "It turned out that the risk of being hit by a meteorite in the solar system, which is about 0.7 parts per million, has been reduced to a minimum."

"So ... departure!"

The order of the Captain's Office was quickly issued to various departments.

"Countdown to the start of the spacecraft, ten, nine, eight ..."

"The main engine starts!"

Zhang Yuan watched with enthusiasm as the nuclear engine slowly warmed up. The high-energy microwaves began to heat up the entire device, and the plasma quickly emitted bright light.

At this time, what these staff members can do is very small, at most they can only pay attention to the changes of some parameters.

The artificial intelligence inside the spacecraft can notice the errors earlier than these humans.

Zhang Yuan certainly didn't want any accidents.

Soon, the core temperature of the engine room reached a high temperature of 500 million degrees.

The velocity of krypton plasma turbulence is also getting faster and faster.

"five four three two one……"

He silently counted down the countdown, staring at the screen without blinking.

As the last second passed, all of a sudden, 16 bright blue lights appeared on the tail of the spacecraft!

This blue light is a powerful plasma pulse.

The plutonium nuclear engine will start at maximum power, providing the spacecraft with an acceleration of three thousandths of a second per second squared. The whole hull made a very slight vibration, especially inside the engine room, which felt more obvious.

Twenty-three hours later, with the distance from the space port, the Earth Age launched a huge light sail.

大型 Large laser beams from the ground hit the sails one after another, making them reflect a mirror-like golden yellow.

The surface of Tochigi has never had such a strong reflected light. So much so that the staff on the ground saw another little rising sun.

Huge cheers erupted from the sea of ​​people, and many staff members raised their hands and raised their heads to witness the great miracles in the sky.

At this moment, Brother Zhao sitting on the side said gently: "Seven thousandths of the speed of light is a great achievement in my cognitive field and requires a lot of technical support. But for interstellar navigation, It's still too slow. "

"No idea……"

Zhang Yuan replied: "The underlying theory does not break through. Curvature navigation is still sci-fi. If it is a small spacecraft, it can accelerate to 10% of the speed of light by using the optical path and nuclear fusion. No matter how fast our materials cannot support ... ... "

"Do you think there will be a breakthrough in this technology in the future?"

Zhang Yuan thought for a while, "I don't know."

After a while, he said, "Should not."

Tomi's gravitational force is very small. In one day, the mother ship broke away from its gravitational force and sailed towards Jupiter.

The following trajectory is very complicated.

First, in the first stage, use Jupiter's gravitational force to make a gravitational slingshot and make a turn.

The gravitational slingshot's ability to pull wool is limited, but the average revolution speed of Jupiter is 13.07km / s and the average orbit radius is 5.2AU. According to the current spacecraft speed, it is not a problem to scoop a little wool from Jupiter.

He then entered the second stage, and in the solar system, he orbited eight cycles in an elliptical orbit, making full use of Europa's and Lunar light path devices and the sun's light to accelerate the spacecraft.

In these 8 cycles, the speed of the spacecraft will become faster and faster.

The third stage is the last, and head straight for "Glize 581".

It sounds complicated, but the artificial intelligence in the spacecraft can fully perform such computing tasks, so there is no need to worry too much.

Earth Times is a new spaceship after all. All designs also fully consider the situation of long-distance navigation. The probability of errors in the short term is not high.

Uh ...

After two months, the sober population has been reduced to 20,000, and it is still decreasing.

The sober population in this part is mainly the main staff of the spaceship and graduate students.

Zhang Yuan is also getting busier. He doesn't have a lot of personal time like he used to do ~ www.readwn.com ~ time and time again, and he gets confused.

The planned mission has already begun in the spaceship, and he needs to learn something new. For example, the operation of a nuclear power plant is mainly responsible for the normal operation of the unit and the supervision and control operations of the control interface of the main control room, and the local operation of power station equipment and systems.

"... when the next hibernation wakes up and the population is extremely scarce, you need to take greater responsibility, which is equivalent to real leadership."

研究生 "Graduate students are trained for this purpose. Everyone needs to carry the burden on their shoulders."

After this meeting, his work level has risen to sixteen, which is considered to be the middle and high level inside the spaceship. However, Zhang Yuan didn't feel happy.

He saw that Li Zhendong was unhappy at the same time, and patted him on the shoulder in the past: "Why, are you in a bad mood? You have reached the eleventh level, and you can be regarded as a middle-level cadre."

振 Li Zhendong said with a smile: "It has nothing to do with the work level, it is okay to be a bit lower than you, but ... the girlfriend is hibernating, and it will be hundreds of years after the next meeting. I feel very boring."

Life partners do not have the right to hibernate at the same time, only the right to wake up at the same time, the various lines of the spaceship contract, and do not support idlers.

远 Zhang Yuan joked: "It affects the mood, I said, staying single is the best form to maintain high combat effectiveness."

"You are envious, jealous!" Li Zhendong suddenly thought of something and made a hippie smile: "Comrade Zhang Yuan, what is my biggest wish in my life, do you know what it is?"

"what?"

"Just ... before my eyes, you can find a wife."

"Get off!" Zhang Yuan's face was reddish, "Can you count on your wife?"
