I was exposed for mining on Mars

Because the Zhuronghao has a relatively large fuselage, after more energy storage devices are installed, it will take a full five days to go out.

During these five days, humans on Blue Star could only see a large amount of Martian dust, exposed rocks, and the boundless wilderness from the signals returned by the Zhurong.

‘Are Zhuronghao still ready to wander outside? I’ve been watching Tutu for five days’

‘But it seems that we are already on our way back, and we should be able to return to the base soon. ’

Since Zhurong has been arranged by Luo Xiu to explore for mineral deposits these days, Blue Star humans have begun to complain about the live broadcast that has not changed in a few days.

‘It’s like getting familiar with the working environment in advance. You might be caught working as a coolie that day. ’

‘Upstairs, it’s not enough to pay for gas by taking us to Mars as coolies. It would be great to just build a robot. ’

‘That seems to make sense, we can’t even compare to Martian coolies. ’

The live broadcasts of the past few days are really not interesting to Blue Star people, so everyone has basically been teasing each other in the comments and comments.

Compared to the Blue Star audience who were entertaining themselves, in China's space center, Cao Guolin and others were analyzing the situation on Mars through the footage returned by the Zhurong.

Of course, for Cao Guolin and others, studying Mars is just a casual thing, and the focus of their work is still on alien civilization.

At this time, Cao Guolin held a report on the unknown civilization on Mars.

This report is very detailed, from why the other party spoke Chinese in the first place to the recent development direction of civilization, everything is recorded in it.

‘Other alien civilizations should have deciphered most or all of Blue Star’s language and can communicate with Blue Star normally. ’

‘The reason why the return signal of Zhurong was not cut off may be to deter Blue Star (doubtful). ’

‘From the number of members of the other party, the speed of development, the spacecraft in the base, etc., we can draw a more precise conclusion: the other party is not a native civilization of Mars, but an alien civilization. ’

‘.’

Judging from these analyzes and conclusions, this alien civilization on Mars is a relatively large threat to Blue Star.

Because Cao Guolin and others did not dare to confirm whether the other party's follow-up personnel had arrived, even the appearance of another usable spaceship would be a huge threat to Blue Star.

Today's Blue Star's most advanced space equipment is the space station, detectors, and various satellites. Among them, the Zhurong has also fallen into the hands of the other party, and is now helping the alien civilization detect mineral deposits.

And even if the Zhurong was not captured, it would be impossible for Blue Star to take out all its space weapons and compete with the opponent's spacecraft.

The opponent who holds absolute space rights would make Blue Star unbearable just by throwing things down from space.

It is precisely because of the various differences in strength between the two sides that all Blue Star can do now is to try to communicate. If the other party doesn't take the initiative to send the signal, then Blue Star will send it by itself. If the other party doesn't answer, then it will send it directly.

For the survival of Blue Star, we must not slack off at every step.

Of course, in addition to communication, Blue Star is also actively preparing ways to deal with failure of communication. Production of various rockets and missiles is being stepped up to deal with possible threats.

"call."

The more he read the report, the more he felt his chest tightening. After heaving a sigh of relief, Cao Guolin closed the report and placed it on the table.

"Cao, what are you sighing for?" Compared to Cao Guolin, who was a little sentimental, Petrov on the side seemed a little leisurely.

"Nothing." Cao Guolin waved his hand, turned to look at Petrov beside him, and continued, "Have the parts made by you been delivered?"

Cao Guolin had previously received a batch of rocket parts from Mao Xiong. From these parts, Cao Guolin assembled an entire rocket. The remaining parts lacked some key parts. Although Mao Xiong sent the drawings, China itself was stepping up various manufacturing processes, so where could it find room to make Mao Xiong's rocket accessories.

So after discussion, Cao Guolin directly asked Petrov to produce it himself and then flew it over.

"It will be delivered tomorrow, and now we can gather one more spaceship." Although Petrov does not pay much attention to the analysis results of alien civilization, he is still very concerned about such a major event as the rocket in front of him, "Launch The coordinate points have been completely confirmed. When the time comes, we will launch in advance and wait in orbit, and you can just come over and dock."

The coordinate points Petrov mentioned were exactly the result of discussions between the two sides. The previous companion flight plan was abandoned after several verifications, leaving only the combined flight project.

When the official mission begins, the Mao Xiong astronauts will rush back to China. They will be responsible for the launch of a total of two rockets, carrying their own personnel, some supplies and equipment.

The two rockets will take off first and then wait in their predetermined orbits. Then they launched several rockets from several space bases in China, docked with Mao Xiong's rocket at the predetermined orbit, and rushed to Mars together.

This space vehicle assembled in a short period of time is so huge that it has exceeded the size of the space station. It can be said to be the largest deep space exploration equipment by mankind so far.

The main reason why it is designed to be so huge is that there are so many supplies and equipment that need to be carried.

Ordinary space stations do not need to store too many resources because they have shift changes and material supplies. But it will take at least a year and a half for the equipment to go to Mars. After launching during the window period for landing on Mars, they will no longer receive any supplies from Blue Star.

In other words, after launch, the four crew members must live in the small space station for a year and a half. This kind of pressure is very stressful not only for ordinary people, but also for professional astronauts.

And more importantly, all four of them knew that there was a high chance that this flight would never come back. For the Blue Star people who only have relatively little information, there are too many unknowns on Mars.

"Petrov, will we succeed?" Cao Guolin looked at the shaking picture on the big screen and suddenly asked Petrov.

"Um?"

Petrov, who was suddenly asked this, was stunned, and then said: "Of course, my friends, you have to believe them, those are all outstanding children."

Petrov and Cao Guolin are both in their sixties, and only Luo Faqi and Xue He, who are about forty, can indeed be called children.

"Of course he is excellent." Cao Guolin nodded slightly and said.

For Cao Guolin, the word "excellent" is a bit cruel now. Because of their excellence, they were sent on the road to Mars.

"Chief engineer, look over there, there seems to be something being built over there at the Mars base." While Cao Guolin was still thinking about something, the assistant behind him suddenly pointed to the screen and said to Cao Guolin.

Thanks to the jellyfish years, let’s read the book for free. The snow is like a dream, the autumn night is like a dream, and I am chattering about the dishes. I am lucky to know you in my three lives, and I will give you a reward~
