Chapter 425: The Mars Project Starts

"Okay, we must build a moon base! This will be an important part of our space defense system. Meng Xiaobai said seriously, "Especially the space battleship base, our space battleship has not yet been manufactured." ”

"But there must be a space battleship base on the moon! There will be several space battleship bases on the earth, and this is not enough! It is far less convenient to defend space on the earth than on the moon, and the moon battleship base is the most urgent thing at present. ”

"Yes, we've already selected a site and started using robots to start leveling the land. The staff nodded.

Meng Xiaobai took a walk around the moon base, and the construction here was not bad. At the current pace, the lunar base should be completed within the next six months.

The construction of the space battleship base on the moon is a little slower, after all, it is a big project, and it is on the moon, and it is difficult to transport a lot of heavy industrial equipment, so it can only be disassembled, and then transported to the moon for reassembly and engineering construction.

The construction of the lunar base is going well, and the next step is the Mars mission.

However, this time, Meng Xiaobai encountered a problem.

"Mr. Meng, with our current rockets and spacecraft, we can't carry too many people and equipment to Mars. "And Mars is too far away from Earth, no matter what happens, our rescue force will not be able to reach it." ”

"If you want to build a Mars base, you have to take it step by step. The rover is used to explore the terrain and geology first, and then select the site. Send a few astronauts to find out the situation, and then slowly build it. ”

"No, it's too slow!" Meng Xiaobai vetoed directly, "It's too slow." ”

"The Earth is 55 million kilometers away from Mars, and the farthest distance is more than 400 million kilometers! Every 15 years, Mars and the Earth have the shortest distance, but unfortunately, it is not the shortest distance now!"

"According to what you said, we want to build a base on Mars, and it will take four or five years to make a round trip, can we afford to wait? When the official base is completed, it will take about ten years!"

"The aliens didn't give us so much time, we directly used the American Mars rover to explore the data, and for the first time, we had to directly transport astronauts and supplies to build a Mars base!"

"However, our launch vehicle, if it wants to travel such a long distance in space, there are still problems with fuel and thrusters. The scientific researcher said in embarrassment.

"The most important thing is that there are nanowormholes left by the sea people on Mars, which means that there must be nanoworms or other nanobots that pose a threat to us. Send a few astronauts, afraid of ...... Something bad will happen to them. ”

The scientists' concerns are not unreasonable, and several astronauts who have died heroically on the moon have been killed by nanoworms.

It is inferred that there is more than one nanowormhole on Mars, and there may be millions of nanobots.

Think about it, after more than a year of sailing, several astronauts who have run out of energy and are short of supplies have arrived on Mars, isn't that going to be eaten by the enemy?

"You're right, this plan needs to be improved! Whether it's equipment or a plan, I need a week's time!" Meng Xiaobai said after deep thought.

He immediately entered the virtual world and consulted with Kaneki and Maruko.

"I have a way with a spacecraft. "The plasma thruster I've been developing can already be manufactured, and replacing the original Hercules rocket engine with a plasma thruster can increase the speed of our spacecraft by about two and a half times." ”

"With the current distance between Earth and Mars, it should only take five months to reach Mars. ”

"The construction of the Mars base, I should be able to solve it. Meng Xiaobai said, "I thought about it, it is impossible to directly send many engineers to carry construction equipment. We can just bring a small team of engineering robots to build a base quickly!"

"Build modular small robots that have construction cells, excavation cells, energy units, air circulation, power systems, signal units, and so on. Each small robot is a basic module, and when combined with each other, you can instantly build a large robot for the construction of Martian machinery. And astronauts going to Mars only need to maintain these modular robots, and it is enough to adapt to the situation. ”

"The most difficult thing is the problem of nanowormholes and extraterrestrial nanobots on Mars. ”

Maruko suggested, "Then carry electromagnetic weapons and build a defense network while establishing a base." ”

Meng Xiaobai shook his head and said, "The fact that the Sea Clan can launch meteorological weapons from Mars to manipulate the Earth's atmosphere shows that they have a very large number of nanobots on Mars. ”

"I'm afraid that our spacecraft will be destroyed before it lands on the surface of Mars! There is no time to use electromagnetic weapons! Even if we can successfully land, we will be in a state where we may be attacked at any time. ”

Maruko: "Then I can't help it, unless the astronauts can evolve into new humans, I won't be afraid of nanoworms!"

She was referring to new humans like Meng Xiaobai, who can control machines with brainwaves and enter the world of data.

However, in a short period of time, this is not possible.

Kaneki hesitated for a moment and said, "Sir, let me go to Mars too!"

"You go, no, it's too dangerous!" Meng Xiaobai hurriedly said, "You're not proficient in combat. ”

"Yes, I'm not proficient in combat, but there are no powerful enemies like the Decepticons on Mars!" Kaneki said, "I can deal with nanobots as well." ”

"It's still too dangerous. Meng Xiaobai was not at ease.

"Yes!" Kaneki insisted, "and I'll design new electromagnetic weapons and equip spacecraft with nanobot defense systems! Besides, my survivability is much stronger than that of humans, even in outer space." Even if it is a state of emergency, I can sleep for hundreds, thousands of years!"

Meng Xiaobai suddenly realized, yes, although Jin Mu used a bionic body, he looked like a human. But it's essentially a Cybertron who is more powerful than the Sea Clans, a race that can physically walk in space!

The intelligent creatures of the second-level civilization, if you give it enough supplies and weapons, it alone can be more useful than sending a hundred astronauts!

Meng Xiaobai thought for a while, but he didn't bother with it, and said, "Okay, then let you go!" But the spaceship, spacecraft, and weapon systems must be redesigned to ensure safety!"

"No problem!" Kaneki immediately went into action.

Meng Xiaobai has also begun to design modular robots and weapon systems for landing on Mars, and they must be fully prepared before going to Mars. Strive to build a Mars base directly at one time, and then slowly improve the Mars base.

It was another period of intense work, and seven months later, all the equipment for the Mars mission was ready.

Deep Space Tech Rocket Launch Platform, a Heavy Launch Vehicle to Rocket, and a Martian spacecraft!
