。

Two weeks later.

The Feitian, which approached the large space quantum communication relay base station, sent the video packet.

The ship then switched to autopilot, and the entire crew entered the hibernation chamber in the sleep room.

The dormancy chamber can keep the human body in a state of minimum energy consumption, and at low temperatures, the cell activity is reduced to a minimum, just like animal hibernation, which can minimize energy consumption while also reducing damage to the human body.

In fact, the biggest significance of the dormancy chamber is not the nutrient consumption saved during the dormant process, but to prevent all kinds of physiological and psychological problems that will occur in human beings in a closed environment during a long interstellar journey.

Physiological aging can be overcome with medicine, but psychological problems cannot be overcome by medicine.

Common mental illnesses such as autism, environmental claustrophobia, delusion, and mania can occur in a spaceship......

Lie flat in the hibernation chamber before initiating hibernation.

"Grandpa, I'm going to sleep for 160 years this time, do you have any problems" Yun Xinghe asked, the old man in his brain has a symbiotic relationship with him, he is asleep, will something happen to the old man

Like disappearing suddenly or something.

"Don't worry, the old man won't leave, you can rest. ”

"Hmm"

Yun Xinghe nodded and pressed the button to activate the dormant chamber.

A cloud of misty liquid squirted out in front of him, and the dizzying ingredients in it made him fall into a coma, and after a while, he lost all consciousness.

……

"Ding"

"The character has entered a deep sleep state, whether to quit the game" system suddenly prompts.

"No!"

The Sims' flexibility is here, and if you want to get out of the game, there are plenty of opportunities to choose from.

In reality, Zhou Ming also happens to have some things to do, and these days, he can put Yun Xinghe aside and concentrate on his own affairs.

……

In the vastness of space.

A drifting spaceship doing an unpowered gliding flight.

In the quiet, dark universe, like a ghost ship.

"Wow"

The dormant chamber is opened.

A man sat up with his head in his hands.

Splitting headaches.

A dream.

A dream that lasted for a long time.

The scenes in the dream are as strange as a kaleidoscope, and when you wake up, you don't remember anything.

Even some of the original memories were blurry and chaotic.

It took more than ten minutes for him to remember his name - Yun Xinghe.

"Child, you're awake. A voice came over my head.

"Who are you" Yun Xinghe was stunned for a moment and asked.

"It seems that your memory has disappeared a lot, in the medical room, one day the memory recovery machine, your memory has been backed up there, go get your memory back. The voice in his head reminded.

Yun Xinghe nodded, found the medical room, and after seeing the memory recovery machine, he put on his helmet and began his journey to retrieve his memory.

With the treatment of some medicines, after three days, Yun Xinghe completely returned to normal.

Inside the bridge control hall.

Sitting in the captain's seat, I opened the control panel and checked the status of the ship first.

"All systems are functioning properly. ”

"87% of the energy remains, 65% of the acceleration medium remains, and 95% of the living materials are stored on board. ”

"Current sailing speed 0.45201c, current total voyage time: 163.33 years. ”

"Report: A damage was found in the right wing of the Flying Sky, presumably caused by a space float impact, the damage was minor, but it is recommended that it be repaired immediately. ”

A problem reported by the spaceship Zhi Brain stunned Yun Xinghe, who was enjoying a beef lunch, and made Zhi Brain point the camera at the damaged part:

Yun Xinghe saw that the right wing of the spaceship, close to the wingtip, and the thin wing surface, had been knocked out of a big fist hole.

Although he didn't break through the wing, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but fortunately it hit the wing position, if it hit the bridge control hall......

After lunch, I changed into an extravehicular spacesuit, carried an air bag, brought repair tools, tied my waist through a long belt, and flew nearly 200 meters before Yun Xinghe arrived at the damaged part of the spacecraft.

A piece of force gold was refilled, the gap was welded with a high-energy laser, and the damaged part was repaired in only 15 minutes under precise operation.

Standing on the surface of the spaceship, looking up and looking up, Yun Xinghe's heart was shocked.

The starry sky was bright and wonderful, and the original gauzy-like Omar Nebula was like a strip of colored silk at close range, red, blue, purple, orange, white, gray, dyed in all kinds of colors.

Meteor shower.

Yun Xinghe also saw a very rare meteor shower, a space meteorite from nowhere, after entering the Omar Nebula at high speed, rubbing against dense gas, heating and glowing, dragging a long trajectory, even if it is separated by two light moons, it looks extremely clear.

"It's so beautiful. ”

Yun Xinghe sighed in his heart.

After returning to the spaceship, after a few more days, all the equipment and systems on the ship were checked, and after confirming that there was no problem, Yun Xinghe woke up all the partners who were still dormant.

"The Omar Nebula is almost here, and the speed of the Flying Sky is about to drop and pass through the Omar Nebula!"

……

"It hurts, my head hurts. ”

"Who I am, what am I here there is"

"How long have I been dormant"

"My head really hurts......"

After the teammates were awakened, the sequelae symptoms were similar to those of Yun Xinghe, and after sending them to the medical room one by one, they basically returned to normal within a week.

In the bridge control hall.

The whole team discussed and approved the strategy of the Omar Nebula.

"The thickness of the Omar Nebula is not thick, the average thickness is about 3 light years, and the thinnest point is less than 1 light year, but the area is very large, the length is more than 70 light years, the width is more than 20 light years, the concentration of internal matter should not be large, and most areas, starlight can pass through ......"

"But we can't ignore the dangers, space storms, special magnetic fields, may cause the spacecraft to fly abnormally, or malfunction, it is impossible to bypass this nebula, that will increase the voyage period of ten years, even if the speed of the spacecraft is reduced, straight through, it is more cost-effective than circumambulation. ”

The question is: the speed of the ship, how much is it better to reduce it

"0.35 times the speed of light, at this speed, the force of the gold should be able to withstand the impact of low-density matter. ”

Chief Engineer Xia Xingkongdao, after thinking about it, he added: "After entering the nebula, the frictional resistance will also reduce the speed of the spacecraft, and the temperature on the surface of the spacecraft will increase...... Therefore, it is not advisable to start the main engine, and the speed of the spacecraft should be automatically decelerated to a safe range, and then the power system should be turned on. ”

"It's better to slow down the spacecraft to the minimum, there is no shortage of energy on the Feitian, but a third of the acceleration medium has been used, we should replenish some, we can turn on the material collector on the spacecraft and collect some acceleration medium. Sugaru suggested at the right time.

However, the Matter Collector can only be used normally if the ship's velocity is less than 0.1C, beyond which the Collector will be damaged by high-speed particles.

But some people feel that it is not necessary, after passing through the Omar Nebula, after flying about ten light years, it will reach the P654J star, the acceleration medium should be enough, there is no need to supplement, for the sake of saving time, the spacecraft should pass through the Omar Nebula at a speed of not less than 0.3C.

In the face of these opinions, for the sake of insurance, Yunxing River said: "It's better to wait for the spacecraft to automatically reduce to 0.1C, then turn on the material collector, add some acceleration medium, wait for the acceleration medium to be filled, and introduce part of it into the matter reactor for combustion, no longer use energy blocks, and save some energy consumption." ”

In addition to iron, the ship's matter reactor can burn everything, and as long as there is a constant supply of matter, the ship has an inexhaustible source of energy.

……

Two months later.

The Flying Spacecraft, which had a speed of 0.35C, plunged headlong into the Omar Nebula.

"Boom Boom"

A large number of atoms, constantly rubbing and exploding on the surface of the spacecraft.

The Feitian shook violently, the speed continued to decrease, and the temperature on the surface of the hull rose to more than 3,000 degrees Celsius in a few hours, like a piece of carbon wrapped in fire.

Yun Xinghe and they still underestimated the difficulty of crossing this nebula, but fortunately in the outer area, after entering the central area, the concentration of substances increased sharply, as if entering a viscous glue lake, and the speed could not be faster.

There are also violent storms, this kind of space storm, not a few or a dozen, but dozens or hundreds! The speed of a hurricane can reach thousands of kilometers per second, and the Feitian has been blown countless times in an abnormal movement and attitude, either rolling, spinning, or like fallen leaves in the autumn wind, flying in all directions.

The crew members in the spacecraft were all vomiting up and down, and the dizziness was spinning, and they couldn't distinguish between the south, south, north, west, up, down, left, right, and left.

I began to hate incomparably why their spaceship was so small that it couldn't even stop a small space storm

If there is a billion-ton heavy ship, there is no fear of this hurricane!

It was also the helmsman Sugaru, gritting his teeth, controlling the joystick with tears in his eyes, turning the ship's power to the maximum from time to time, rotating the engine vent, and trying to adjust his attitude to get out of the storm.

This process of wanting to die lasted for more than a year, some people even vomited bile, and everyone lost more than a dozen pounds on average, and finally flew out of the center of the storm.

It took more than three years for everyone to feel apprehensive after flying out of the Omar Nebula and looking back at the bewitching and beautiful nebula.

And swear in their hearts that the next time they encounter this kind of nebula, they would rather fly for ten more years than stay in it for a year!
