My Clone Empire

Chapter 352 Long

After negotiation, the first batch of five astronauts entered the game cabin. Through this false "sleep" state, the spacecraft can save at least one-third of its supplies.

Two astronauts climbed into the cockpit on duty.

The remaining three returned to their rest cabins first, each of which is a special sleep cabin that can accommodate five astronauts, where each astronaut can also have his own desk, just like a university. The bedroom is average.

After a brief wash, the three of them lay down in their respective sleeping cabins. The electromagnetic device of the mandatory armored space suits firmly adsorbed them all in the vertically placed sleeping cabin, and then the transparent hatch of the sleeping cabin slowly closed. Under the hypoxic state, the three of them gradually fell into a fell asleep....

Life on board is very regular, but also very boring. After sleeping for seven hours every day, the crew will get up and read professional books for three hours, and then play games for two hours to relax , followed by an hour of meal time.

After lunch, all crew members will enter the artificial gravity ring at the front of the spacecraft to perform daily exercises to maintain the strength of their bones and muscles.

After the exercise, the crew can take care of the vegetables they have grown in the planting area, and adjust the rotation speed of the artificial gravity ring to reduce the centrifugal force in the ring, that is, the strength of artificial gravity, so as to carry out fighting and working training under low gravity.

Then go to bed after dinner and watch two hours of movies or TV shows, and then continue to repeat yesterday's life after getting up the next day.

As time passed by so rapidly, the space probe jointly launched by various countries, after six years of flight, finally came to the side of the wormhole in the orbit of Pluto after several times of acceleration by gravitational slingshots.

This wormhole, which was detected in 2018, finally unveiled its mystery to humans.

But unfortunately, due to the orbital bombing of the Titan Group, the control center of this probe in country M has been turned into ruins in the impact.

And Xiong Guo and other countries that still hold the control of this detector, of course, will not say such a thing.

Because this plan is the top secret of each country, the paper documents related to the detectors are kept in the safest place, and the underground fortress in country M where the paper files of this plan are kept is even more so by Tang Shizhe together with New York City. The city was erased at the same time, completely losing the opportunity to learn about it.

The probe, which was marked as a lost communication satellite, circled around the wormhole and read a large amount of data, and plunged into the wormhole under the order of the Blue Star Control Center.

According to the vision of scientists from Xiong Guo and other countries,

After setting the return program for the probe, once the probe reaches the unknown space through the wormhole, it will turn around and return through the wormhole after obtaining the approximate information from the other end.

If you can't return, it can only mean that the wormhole is one-way, or the environment at the other end of the wormhole is very bad!

As for whether there is another more developed civilization, scientists from various countries maintain a negative attitude. After all, after six years of testing, no unidentified flying objects have been found flying out of this wormhole!

If Tang Shizhe knew what these people were thinking, he would beat them to death! These countries can't even detect the Titan Group's sixth-generation fighter jets. If there is a more advanced civilization, can they detect it?

The detectors entering the wormhole are like stones submerged in mercury, gradually being wrapped by the wormhole and disappearing.

A few days later, an unidentified aircraft suddenly flew out of the wormhole. The surface of this aircraft is covered with angular armor, and its volume is several times larger than the probe launched by humans six years ago!

And any monitoring station on Blue Star has not detected the appearance of this unknown aircraft!

After the spacecraft scanned the surrounding star map, flames began to be ejected from the tail, and it was slowly accelerated into the orbit of Pluto.

From the propeller type of this aircraft, it is not difficult to guess that this aircraft does not have the ability to fly faster than the speed of light! Its maker's technological level also appears to be extremely limited.

The purpose of the opponent entering the orbit of Pluto is also very simple, that is to accelerate through the gravitational slingshot, so that it can reach the planet in the habitable zone faster!

It is a pity that the advanced probe used by the Titan Group to detect this wormhole is still lying in the cabin of Mars One.

Only after Mars One enters the orbit of Mars will the probe be released and fly to Pluto. …

One hundred days passed in the blink of an eye.

The astronauts who had just had lunch in the cabin suddenly heard the siren on the radio.

"The autopilot is over, and we are about to enter manual driving mode! All astronauts are requested to return to their respective positions immediately!" This broadcast is like a voice from heaven! All astronauts know that when they hear this broadcast, it means that they are very close to Mars!

In fact, as early as two days ago, they stopped all entertainment activities to prepare for the upcoming Mars exploration.

"Everyone fasten your seat belts!"

"The spaceship is about to decelerate and enter the orbit of Mars!" Captain Tang Jiuling yelled and flipped a few switches on the console.

The forward-facing propellers on the spaceship immediately began to eject a large amount of white gas. These gases are the exhaust gases generated by the crew's lives, and they are now being used as waste.

Immediately afterwards, the thrusters started to ignite, and the entire spacecraft began to make a creepy deformation sound due to the sudden deceleration.

Fortunately, the spacecraft survived and returned to its original shape after being slightly deformed!

"Very good! We will enter orbit in three hours and twenty-five minutes!" Tang Jiuling breathed a sigh of relief. Although he is a split body, he is not a dead man, and he does not want to die if he can live.

A few days passed again, and Mars-1, which had completed orbit, quietly suspended in the orbit of Mars, maintaining a consistent speed with the rotation of Mars.

Through the portholes of the spacecraft, the astronauts have been able to clearly see the beautiful red and yellow planet below the spacecraft!

"The plan is this. After we have collected the data, the spacecraft will change orbit to the sky above the scheduled landing site."

"Four of us will take two shuttles to the scheduled landing point for manual exploration."

"Then the spaceship will airdrop the construction equipment and supplies in the tool warehouse to the landing point."

"In the end, there were only three people left on the spacecraft, and the remaining three people took a shuttle to the surface to join the first group of people! Start the construction of the Mars Advance Base!"

"So, who wants to be the first people to land on Mars?" Tang Jiuling looked at the crew.
