Chapter 293 Discovery on Mars

? While the whole world was still discussing the wedding on the moon, Zhang Wei had already started his honeymoon trip.

His trip is unusual, because he is going to travel to Mars. He and Ren Huaiyu were not the only ones who took part in this trip. Father, mother, father Ren, and mother Ren were also members of the Mars Tour Group.

For this trip, Zhang Wei has already made full preparations. Although there are only six of them, two spaceships set off at the same time. Even if one spaceship has an irreparable failure, they can also transfer to another one. spacecraft. In addition, there are ten escape pods on the spacecraft, and there are enough supplies in the escape pods to keep a person alive for two months, waiting for rescue.

As for the affairs of the future technology company, there is no need to worry at all, because Zhang Wei has always been a hands-off shopkeeper, and Beidou has penetrated into the future technology company to a meticulous degree. If she finds any bad signs, she will immediately report to Zhang Wei Wei reported that if Zhang Wei could not be contacted, she would take decisive measures to protect Zhang Wei's interests. With the force she possesses now, coupled with her own ability, she can destroy any enemy and conspiracy.

The journey in space was a little boring at first, because there was nothing in the void, only occasionally meteorites could be found passing by the spaceship. In addition to the accommodation conditions, there are gymnasiums, billiard halls, holographic theaters, small dance halls, reading rooms and other facilities that allow passengers to pass the time without being too boring. Therefore, the journey is not very tormented, on the contrary, there is quite a sense of novelty. The six of them often split into two groups, playing Doudizhu and chatting, and the relationship became more and more harmonious. This is one of the biggest gains of this journey.

Boss, radiation has been detected, and the intensity exceeds the normal range. According to the analysis, we have encountered a solar storm and have activated the energy shield.

Five days after leaving Earth, the mastermind of the spacecraft reported to Zhang Weihui.

Xiaowei, I remember that solar storms seem to be able to destroy electronic equipment, will it affect our spacecraft?

Dad asked, looking a little worried.

Now that the whole country is transitioning to the space age, the major media often carry out science popularization of space knowledge. After being influenced by their ears and eyes, everyone has a certain understanding of space knowledge, but most people are still ignorant and do not understand deeply. , Dad is a typical example.

It's okay, as long as it's not a devastating solar storm, the energy shield can stop it.

As soon as Zhang Wei finished speaking, he heard a thud, which was the electromagnetic noise between the solar wind and the energy shield.

Solar storms are definitely after humans enter the space age,

One of the most threatening existences to human beings, it carries a large amount of proton flow, electron flow and other heavy ion flow. If it encounters a spaceship, it will cause damage to the instruments and equipment on the spaceship. That is, Zhang Wei has an energy shield Technology can protect against solar storms, otherwise he would not dare to travel in space at will.

Sting, sting... Countless charged particles hit the energy shield. Although they didn't break through the shield, they also produced a strong thrust, blowing the spaceship over a distance of hundreds of meters.

The solar storm this time was also very large, covering tens of millions of kilometers. It was not until more than an hour later that the spacecraft left the range of the solar wind, and the piercing sound finally disappeared.

Zhang Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that the energy shield would not be able to hold up. If such a thing happened, the solar storm would probably destroy all the electronic equipment on the spacecraft, and the six of them would be trapped. On this spaceship, it is even impossible to get in touch with the outside world.

The spacecraft flew in the vast universe for another nine days, and finally it was about to reach Mars. At this time, the spacecraft began to slow down sharply.

On the spaceship, Zhang Wei and others were observing with a telescope. At a glance, Mars looked like a burning fireball, emitting a fiery red light in the void, which was dazzling.

This is because the rocks on the surface of Mars contain more iron. When these rocks are weathered and become dust, the iron in them is also oxidized into red iron oxide. Because the surface of Mars is very dry and there is no liquid water, the dust on Mars is easily driven by the wind to fly everywhere, and even develop into a dust storm covering the whole world. In 1971, when the Mariner 9 space probe flew over Mars, it observed a huge dust storm. The dust storm first started from the southern hemisphere and then expanded to the northern hemisphere, covering the entire planet in dust. The dust storm lasted for several months before the dust in the atmosphere gradually settled, returning the surface of Mars to its original condition. It is this recurring dust storm that covers the surface of Mars almost everywhere with thick iron oxide dust, giving the surface of Mars its red appearance.

Seeing that Mars was right in front of them, Zhang Wei and the six of them were a little excited. They floated in space for half a month. Although they had a comfortable life, they were a little bored. Now they finally arrived at their destination! To celebrate, Zhang Wei also went to the plant cabin to pick six crisp and tender cucumbers. In addition to cucumbers, many other vegetables are planted in the plant cabin. These vegetables are new varieties cultivated by future technology companies. They have a short growth cycle, stronger quality, and higher yields, allowing passengers to enjoy delicious food even in space. fresh vegetables.

During the deceleration process of the spacecraft, Mars is getting closer and closer, and various terrains can already be seen clearly. Most importantly, two spacecraft and some small bases can also be seen.

These two spacecraft are the spacecraft sent by Future Technology Corporation to Mars. The first spacecraft has a load of 700 tons and carries 80 astronauts. It departs on January 21 and arrives at Mars on January 20, 2022. The second spacecraft will carry 5,000 tons and carry 120 astronauts. It will depart on January 12, 2022, and arrive at Mars on January 27, 2022. These 200 astronauts have been investigating on the distant Mars for a month, have initially completed a comprehensive survey of Mars, and sent back several important news to the earth.

First, there really is water on Mars, and there is liquid water.

In the past, scientists believed that there was water on Mars, but that was only a conclusion based on data analysis, and water was not directly found on Mars.

Now, astronauts from FutureTech have confirmed that there is plenty of water on Mars. In the north and south poles of Mars, there are abundant solid water and liquid water (underground).

After this result was sent back to the earth, many scientists were ecstatic. Since humans set their sights on the universe, Mars has always been the most suitable planet that humans imagined for immigration, and the debate on whether there is water on Mars has always been a scientific community. Now I finally got an accurate answer: There is water on Mars, and there is a lot of it!

Water is the source of life. For human beings, the most important problem to be solved for interstellar migration is water. Without water, everything is empty talk! As for transporting water from Earth, that's totally inappropriate for mass migration!

This discovery by the future technology company has excited those countries that have participated in the Mars transformation plan, and they have urged to implement the Mars transformation plan as soon as possible.

Second, there is life on Mars.

For thousands of years, people have always believed that there is advanced life on Mars, Martian monsters often appear in science fiction, and some scientists even believe that life on Earth came from Mars, but these have not been confirmed.

However, the astronauts of the future technology company discovered Martian life in the underground liquid water on Mars. However, only a large number of microorganisms have been discovered so far. As for animals, plants and advanced intelligent life like humans, they have not been found! In fact, no matter whether there are advanced intelligent life forms or not, it is impossible to prevent humans from immigrating to Mars, because between two civilizations, the fist is the last word! If advanced intelligent life is really found on Mars, their final outcome will definitely be in a zoo for human appreciation, or in a laboratory for human research.

Third, no alien civilization bases have been found on Mars, and no traces of alien civilizations have been found.

This discovery made people feel a little disappointed and at the same time relieved. Perhaps, the earth is currently the most advanced civilization in the universe? (To be continued.)
