...

When the amethyst crystal energy in the spaceship energy supply system is madly outputting high-purity energy, thousands of groups of lasers in the shape of a ring honeycomb irradiate 330,000 laser beams of particle streams towards the super light sail at the front, carrying a torrent of high-speed particles Tens of thousands of lasers continuously irradiate the light sail area with a length of 16.8 kilometers, and the mirror shield on the surface of the "Mars Express" (ps: a material, not the legendary energy shield Oh) protecting the hull from damage caused by the continuous output of lasers.

The whole aircraft started the first acceleration.

According to theoretical calculations, if the thousand sets of lasers on the "Mars Express" keep irradiating the giant light sail continuously for 200 days, that is, about 7 months of continuous output, then the spacecraft will be within 200 days. It has always accelerated to 72.46% of the speed of light at a gravitational acceleration of 1.34 times in the past 7 months or so. At this speed, it will take less than six years, almost six years, to reach the Alpha Centauri galaxy.

Of course, this is only in theory. With the existing human technology, it is impossible for the material strength of the spaceship hull to withstand such a fast speed, and human physical fitness cannot meet this requirement. There will always be a limit to the output of thousands of lasers, and the phenomenon of output overload cannot occur. Obviously, the current technology cannot achieve 200 days of continuous laser irradiation.

The distance to Mars is not too short compared to the Alpha galaxy. Ren Hong and his team aim to reach Mars in about 100 days, which is also within the range allowed by current technology, and a ship hull may appear if it is one step closer. Catastrophic dangerous accidents of breakage, and before the birth of emerging materials, only such speeds can be tolerated.

Acceleration is a long process, and it can’t be done at one time. Because the human body can bear the limit, it must be adjusted separately for the body many times. After each acceleration, it is a kind of torture to the human body, and such Torment will be endured 15 times on the long journey to Mars. 14 times come from the acceleration of the spacecraft itself, and one time comes from the star of the sun.

"Noah" obtains an acceleration with the help of Venus' gravitational force, and "Mars Express" also needs to obtain a free gravitational acceleration, but the object of the request is not comparable to Venus, it is the largest celestial body in the entire solar system, the absolute ruler --sun.

With Ziyuanjing, there is no need to worry about the energy reserve, but it does not mean that it can be wasted casually, not to mention the energy consumption of other equipment and instruments, just the energy output of the thousand sets of lasers, the energy consumed is burning money, The energy output of one acceleration, converted into money, is equivalent to burning 120 million yuan. For a one-way journey, the energy consumption alone is about 1.6 billion yuan, which is real money.

In addition to obtaining a good gravitational acceleration with the help of the sun's gravitational force,

The 16.8-kilometer-long super giant sail, the outermost layer not only has a strong protective function, but also an important part for absorbing solar energy. When it is close to the sun, it is also an excellent opportunity to recharge the spacecraft Amethyst. The long giant sail, with its huge illuminated area, can recover energy worth about 700 million yuan from the sun. You must know that the closer to the sun, the higher the energy collection efficiency, and it is charging time before it is far from the sun.

In this way, killing two birds with one stone indirectly controlled the energy cost of acceleration to less than RMB 1 billion.

This time to Mars, the "Mars Express" took it to the "Firefly" space station, and when it returns, it may return to Earth with a large number of amethyst crystals. The "Mars Express" has undoubtedly become an excellent means of transportation for the current matrix technology to travel long distances between the stars.

The realization of the "Mars Express" is due to the integration of high-end technologies in many aspects. The laser technology from the dark ax base is a key, and the breakthrough of the dark ax base is obviously inseparable from the support of the country. You must know that the Republic of China Its laser technology is a typical rising star (ps: it is indeed true in reality, it has already led the Yankees, and I am really proud.), thanks to technology sharing, the engineers at Mingxue Base do not need to waste a lot of time and energy to catch up with the starting line. Financial and material resources.

In addition, there is another key point in the birth of "Mars Express", that is, the "sentry mission". The engineers at the outpost have worked hard to deal with the possible asteroids that may hit the earth. It is proposed to use the impact method to change the orbit of the asteroid. The nuclear explosion is obviously not acceptable. It will only create a large amount of meteorite rain, which is an even more terrible disaster. Satellites or space stations, nuclear explosion asteroids in film and television works to solve the impact crisis are pure nonsense.

Among the countless plans, the plan of using light sails to "drag away" meteorites is also among them. It is theoretically feasible, but the degree of difficulty is also prohibitive, and the amount of engineering is too large. Although the country's laser technology has long been quite Maturity, the biggest obstacle is the size.

This news was quickly learned by the person in charge of the "Mars Mission", which gave them great inspiration, so the relatively "smaller" "Mars Express" was included in the research and development charter. The "Mars Express" was born in this way. The engineers of cmsx even said that in the future, this kind of long-distance and large-capacity space transportation vehicle can even undertake the huge concept of mining in the asteroid belt. Using the "Mars Express" It is entirely possible to transport minerals back to Earth from asteroids.

And now, isn't it time to go to Mars to mine the incomparably precious purple source crystal veins!

On June 22, 2028, the orbit of Mars.

"Noah" finally arrived at the outer area of ​​the orbit of Mars today. At this moment, the spacecraft has begun to slow down and is about to enter the range of Mars' gravitational field. The planet that makes mankind dream of it will finally welcome "Brothers" for the first time. "Did you visit...

"Deceleration complete! Stable!"

"'Noah' has entered the range of Mars' gravitational field. Stable!"

"The waterways are being redrawn, and the new waterways are being adjusted!"

"The channel formulation is completed. The channel effect is completed!"

"'Noah' has successfully entered the new channel and is currently orbiting Mars, with a circle of 67 minutes and 38 seconds."

"Ladies...sorry, no ladies. Alright guys, Mars is under our feet...we're here!"

"No one can understand how painful it is to perform more than 200 days of Interstellar, waking up from hibernation again and again, lonely, far away from home, fear, oh God, no one will know how I feel if I don't experience it personally! But all of this is worthwhile when you see the planet under your feet."

"This is 'Noah', Skovo Alderland reported to the Houston Space Center. We have successfully and safely reached the target Mars, 'Noah' is currently orbiting Mars in a stable manner, and everything is normal. According to the plan charter In three days, Jackson and I will take the 'Orion' spacecraft to visit this planet for the first time on behalf of mankind, I wish us all the best, Houston, the briefing is over."

"The message has been sent. According to the current distance between Mars and Earth, Houston will receive the text message in about 19 minutes."

"Okay guys, we have one day to rest, one day to rest and prepare, and land on the surface of Mars in three days, but for now, I suggest you make a cup of coffee, and then enjoy the beautiful view of Mars through the window in the centrifuge cabin, sorry The saddest thing is that we can no longer see Mount Olympus and the Valley of Sailors, but we can see the masterpiece of 'Terminator Asteroid' - 'New Mount Olympus' up close..."
