"The ground control center, this is Fuxi No. 6, everything is normal at the moment, and it can be ignited. Astronaut Zhao Yi said into the microphone.

"The ground control center received that Fuxi-6 will be activated in ten minutes. ”

"Three, two, one, ignition. With a loud bang, a heat wave quickly poured out, and an object with a fire burst into the sky.

The Fuxi-6 flight was part of a joint project run by 17 countries around the world called the "Build Mars Program". This spacecraft is the third project to complete, to increase the magnetic field of Mars, because the magnetic pole of Mars is extremely small, there is almost no magnetic field, it cannot protect the harmful radiation in the universe like the Earth, so it must be strengthened at the north and south poles of Mars.

"Three, two, one, ignition. With a loud bang, a heat wave quickly poured out, and an object with a fire burst into the sky.

Zhao Yi looked at the shrinking earth and exhaled. He is only thirty-one years old, but he has already participated in the first project of the "Build Mars Program": the construction of the International Space Station at a distance of 278 kilometers from Mars, and it is for this reason that he was sent on the mission.

"Fuxi-6 will soon reach the atmosphere, and the rocket is ready to ignite. Said the personnel of the ground control center.

There was another loud bang, and several fires rushed out of the ship.

"Everything is fine with Fuxi 6 and it can move on. Zhao Yi said. Looking at the sparkle on the ship's screen, hit a few keys on the screen.

"Astronaut, please go to the hibernation module to sleep, unless there are special circumstances, it will wake you up when you are fifteen thousand kilometers away from Mars. ”

"Roger. Zhao Yi pressed the sleep button on the screen and came to something that resembled a recliner, he lay down, put his head into a ring, and slowly lost consciousness.

Suddenly, Zhao Yi slowly regained consciousness, suddenly, he heard a slight "Didi", his eyes opened instantly, years of training made him quickly get up from the bed, he saw the screen next to the bed written: has been dormant for 372 days.

Zhao Yi hurried to the control area and found that a device called ultraviolet lidar was malfunctioning, and the strong ultraviolet light it emitted was absorbed.

Zhao Yi was not too surprised, because anything could happen in the universe. He said into the microphone: "If you find an anomaly, do you want to change direction, and use Route B." "Before going to Mars, scientists had already decided on three routes that could be used, and Route B was one of them, and it was not far from his current Route A.

"According to intelligent analysis, there is a large asteroid 3,000 kilometers ahead that is heading towards the original planned route, but it is sure that it will not collide, and it was not intended to wake up and sleep, but unexpectedly, it still woke up automatically. The voice seemed a little helpless, "For safety reasons, you can only continue to sleep after twenty-four hours." ”

"Roger, I'll be looking at the Earth briefing when I'm dormant during this time. With that, he clicked on an icon that looked like a newspaper and looked at it.

"Dididi, there is something unusual. The cold voice sounded again. Zhao Yi glanced at it and found that the larger asteroid was gradually flying, but according to its trajectory, it would not collide with the spaceship.

"Warning. Suddenly a large red patch appeared on the screen, "Engine A has stopped working, repeat, Engine A has stopped working." Warning, engine B has stopped working, repeated. Engine B has stopped working. ”

"Ground, what's going on!" Zhao Yi ignored the system's warning and shouted into the microphone.

"The machine of Fuxi No. 6 is being inspected, and the equipment is stopping work on a large scale, don't panic, don't panic ......" At this time, Zhao Yi found that the radio had also stopped working.

At this time, the screen was dark, and the lights were dimmed accordingly.

Suddenly, Zhao Yi froze and lost consciousness, and at that moment, he was still wondering what was going on.

"Fuxi No. 6! Fuxi No. 6! Hear the answer!" Yang Haichao, the leader of the ground control center, shouted into the microphone, but the only thing that responded to him was the gradually dimming radio.

"Quick, let's take a look at the situation of Fuxi Six. He patted a technician named Huang Feicheng on the shoulder and said eagerly.

"Team leader, we have completely lost contact with Fuxi 6, and Fuxi 6 is completely gray. ”

Yang Haichao looked at the computer screen, and the model of Fuxi No. 6 had all turned gray, and there were a few blood-red words written next to it: Contact has been lost.

It must have something to do with that asteroid, he thought, and then said to Huang Feicheng: "Open the last image of Fuxi 6, by the way, how long is the delay in the image that comes?"

"Well, there's a delay of about twenty seconds, and we can only see the image after the twenty seconds before the Fuxi 6 accident. Immediately, Huang Feicheng opened an interface.

"Well, play the last ten seconds. After watching the ten-second video, Yang Haichao was indeed even more puzzled, because there was no doubt that this larger asteroid would definitely pass behind Fuxi 6, and it was expected that the spacecraft would be 100 kilometers away from this planet at the time of the accident.

"Wait, pause in the fifth second. He said that he was worthy of being the head of the ground control center and found the clearest picture. He did the position of Huang Feicheng just now, picked up the mouse, kept zooming in, Huang Feicheng stood aside, and asked suspiciously: "Team leader, what's wrong, is there anything strange about this planet?"

"It's pale blue. And I find it a little weird. ”

"Neptune is also blue, and the planet that seems to be called HD 189733b is also blue, is there anything strange. ”

"Do you remember, we used strong ultraviolet radar to show that this should be a large asteroid, but according to calculations, the diameter of this planet is only about forty-eight kilometers, by the way, Zhao Yi was awakened because the strong ultraviolet light was absorbed. ”

"However, benzones, substituted acrylonitrile salicylates, benzotriazoles, etc., can absorb ultraviolet rays, and in space, there may be many substances that can absorb ultraviolet rays. Huang Feicheng was a little puzzled, but obviously, he knew a lot of things.

"But I always felt something wasn't right, you see. He zoomed in on the picture again and pointed to the screen, "This asteroid is transparent, and behind it should be an asteroid called M574, which is blue." ”

Yang Haichao adjusted the image to nine seconds, and although the lens was a little far away from the asteroid, he still saw it clearly.

"You see, it's turning light red again. ”

"Could it be that it comes in many colors?"

"No, the asteroid behind this asteroid is called ZD 1847, and it's a red asteroid. ”

Huang Feicheng seemed to understand its intentions a little, Yang Haichao began to play at an extremely slow speed for nine seconds, and on the computer screen, an asteroid changed from light red to dark gray, but soon, it turned light blue, and then dark gray.

"Is it, almost transparent?" Not only Huang Feicheng, but also dozens of technicians behind him were stunned, "That...... What is it made of? Wouldn't it be...... Diamonds?"

"At the moment this is not an issue that we should discuss, but a question of the Fuxi 6 accident and whether astronaut Zhao Yi died or not. ”

They reacted from Yang Haichao's words, and everyone's expressions were a little sad, because all the equipment was stopped, and the oxygen would run out quickly, so Zhao Yi was also unlucky.

"Team leader, we'll definitely find out!" everyone held back their grief, returned to their positions, and got to work.
