Chapter 799 Shock
"With the current speed of the spacecraft, I don't know how long it will take to fly to Neptune. I don't have so much time to waste."

Don't look at the current speed of the Pioneer, which is so fast that ordinary people can't imagine it.

But this speed is still too slow for space travel.

In Jiang Cheng's view, the speed of [-] kilometers per second is similar to the speed of a tortoise crawling under the cosmic scale.

Going to Neptune at this speed is almost like crawling with a turtle.

That's why Jiang Cheng cares about the time of acceleration. Accelerate to the fastest speed and reach the destination earlier.

Report to the captain, it will take another 10 minutes of acceleration to reach the highest speed.

The crew below were still very concerned about the question asked by the interim captain Jiang Cheng, and it didn't take long for someone to answer his question.

And when the crew member was reporting to work, the stem cells called Jiang Cheng the captain, completely ignoring the real captain standing aside.

This situation made the captain extremely embarrassed, but there was nothing he could do about his subordinate's behavior.

Whoever asked Jiang Cheng to do the work of the captain now, there is nothing wrong with calling him a father.

"Very good, continue to keep the spaceship accelerating, and remember to report to me when the acceleration reaches the limit.

Jiang Cheng nodded in satisfaction when he heard that he could accelerate to the limit in 10 minutes.

He can still wait for 10 minutes, and the speed of the spaceship will satisfy him by that time.

Ten minutes passed in a blink of an eye, and a crew member also ran over to report the current situation to him as Jiang Cheng had just ordered.

Report to the captain, the spaceship has now reached its maximum speed.

Now the speed of the spacecraft is 15 kilometers per second, it has stopped accelerating, and it has begun to turn into a stable flight stage. "
Now the speed of the Pioneer has reached 15 kilometers per second, which is exactly half the speed of light.

If you fly to Neptune at the current speed, it will take about a few hours to complete the journey from the earth to Neptune.

It is enough to ensure the current speed, and the spacecraft will switch to normal cruise mode.

Jiang Cheng gave the last order to the crew around him, and stopped making any further orders.

The cruise mode means that the spacecraft has entered a stable period, and there are few things that require everyone to be busy, and there is no need for Jiang Cheng to direct anything.

When the spacecraft finishes the acceleration phase, basically there will be no problems.

When Jiang Cheng gave the order to enter the cruising mode, all the crew members let out a long breath, letting go of their tense nerves.

When the spacecraft was accelerating just now, the crew needed to pay attention to a lot of things. The spacecraft during the acceleration phase was very busy, but when it reached the stage of stable flight, there were a lot less things to do.

When the Pioneer is switched to cruise mode, only a part of the crew is required to care about the situation of the spacecraft, and they do not need to make any operations.

The spacecraft in cruise mode does not need the crew to control anything. Anyway, there is nothing in space. The Pioneer can fly straight to any target without even turning.

This mode is also the normal state of the spacecraft. After the end of the acceleration, the crew can relax, and even take turns to take a rest.
If the crew had been as tense as they were just now, they simply wouldn't be able to hold on to space travel for too long.

When a spacecraft is on a long-distance voyage, it will be in cruise mode most of the time.

It doesn't take long to accelerate at all, and it will basically be in a stable flight state.

In fact, like the crew on a spaceship, in addition to the acceleration when taking off and the deceleration when arriving at the destination, there is not much work to be done at other times.

Many jobs that require manpower have been replaced by robots on the spacecraft.

When in the cruising state, all the crew members have to do is the usual maintenance.

Routine maintenance is only done for long-distance space travel. The purpose is to keep the entire spacecraft in good operation during the long-term flight.

Compared with the flight between the galaxies that lasts for several years, the flight in the solar system from the earth to Neptune is really a short distance.

For a short-distance flight of several hours like this test flight, even routine maintenance is not required.

Now the astronauts can finally take a short break, and Jiang Cheng, the interim supervisor, can also relax for a while and enjoy this space travel.

Jiang Cheng walked to the front of the bridge with the iced drink in his hand.

Here you can see the scenery outside the spacecraft through the transparent window in the front of the spacecraft.

Now the speed of the Pioneer has reached half of the speed of light, and the scenery of the universe seen at this speed is completely different from usual.

In Jiang Cheng's eyes, Zhou Guo's stars flew backwards at high speed, which was a visual error produced when the spaceship moved.

Especially those planets in the solar system, the current appearance changes very quickly. Since these planets are relatively close to the spacecraft, the visual changes produced are very obvious.

Jiang Cheng watched the constantly changing scenery outside the spaceship while tasting the iced drink in Ruo's hand. This feeling still made him feel very good.

It didn't take long for Jupiter to appear in Jiang Cheng's eyes. The appearance of this gas planet is still very special.

This planet seems to be full of flowing gas, and various gases interweave a wonderful scenery.

Especially the Great Red Spot on Jupiter, Jiang Cheng saw it at a glance.

The Great Red Spot is a huge updraft with a length of 4 kilometers, which makes the red spot on Jupiter look very obvious.

The Great Red Spot on Jupiter has lasted for hundreds of years, which means that this storm has been blowing for hundreds of years.

This storm may continue for a long, long time, and I don't know how long it will take to slowly stop.

After a period of time, the Pioneer slowly moved away from Jupiter. Jupiter, a huge gas planet, was getting smaller and smaller in Jiang Cheng's eyes.

Soon the Trailblazer entered the voyage between Jupiter and Saturn, left Jupiter and began to fly towards Saturn.

Jiang Cheng just kept looking at the scenery outside Ruo's spacecraft, watching the Saturn in front of Ruo's eyes keep getting bigger.

After a period of flight again, the Trailblazer finally approached the orbit of Saturn.

Saturn began to become clear in Jiang Cheng's eyes, allowing him to see the whole picture of Saturn clearly.

The first thing that left a deep impression on Jiang Cheng was Shi Xing's iconic Saturn rings.

Located on Saturn's equator, Saturn's rings are composed of a large mass of rubble and ice.

The huge ring country surrounds the real Saturn, which looks very shocking.
