If someone were to interview the aerospace technology experts of the three major countries and how they felt about the "great race of the solar system" of the South President of the South Africa, they would definitely hold their glasses very seriously and then tell you: "It is very difficult for the South President to solve the problem." ”

Acceleration, in outer space, is it also said that acceleration is acceleration?

Although the gravity here is very low, there are no obstacles, and you will not touch the flowers and plants, but when you accelerate, you have to consider the bearing capacity of the engine, you have to consider the remaining fuel, you have to consider the strength and structure of the spacecraft, and you have to consider how to slow down in the end - you can't go straight to Mars!

And after the speed changes, the entire orbit will also change, and the orbit change time, time window, etc., all change.

Don't forget that Mars is also constantly rotating in the solar system, and their flight angles, routes, etc., must be redesigned.

And once it starts to accelerate, the ship can't slow down anymore, otherwise it will definitely not win the big challenge.

Therefore, it is necessary to come up with a plan as quickly as possible, and then constantly revise and improve the plan, which requires a large number of experts, technicians and powerful computing power.

This is even a test of a country's national strength!

And this race, for a while, has attracted the attention of people all over the world, anyway, it happens that one-fifth of the world's people are celebrating the Spring Festival, and there is nothing to do during the New Year.

All kinds of analysis, tearing, and disputes on the Internet are rampant, and various gaming companies have opened handicaps, and underground bets are as much as tens of trillions of dollars......

……

A certain bear children who were at the scene, but were completely watching the play, were a little depressed after being thrown back on the earth fire train.

"Uncle Hades is too much, we originally planned to warm up for the mecha god war on Mars, who else will pay attention to us when he comes here!"

"Uncle Ming, this is too big, a 20,000-megawatt nuclear fusion engine, I really want it......"

In the midst of the noise, Lu Rongfu, who is the most economically minded, has been silent.

"What are you doing?"

"Bet. "Lu Rongfu is very skillful in manipulating his own small coffers, injecting different funds into the markets of different bookmakers, and also participating in the underground gambling of some rich people.

The bear children suddenly became interested, no way, they are poor!

We are also a company that is not good at making money!

That's right, it's not as good at making money as Lazy God Technology!

"Who to bet on?"

"Well, intellectually speaking, I think the United States has always had a first-mover advantage, and the Orion spacecraft has always been at the front, their spacecraft is the most stable in size, and it has the strongest ability to withstand acceleration......" Lu Rongfu analyzed it and said: "But if I bet on the United States, my dad will eat me raw." ”

"My dad probably ate me raw, too. As soon as he said this, the other children immediately became entangled.

……

On the Yingfu No. 1, Shi Buqing's pressure was also very high.

He thinks flying in space is boring, but he doesn't think it's fun right now!

Of course, he didn't think that Nan Ming proposed this "big race" really because it was boring, and the prize was so tempting......

But it's really hard!

After contacting the ground several times in a row, Shi Buqing felt that his hair was about to turn gray.

If you can't get the first place, I'm afraid you will be a national sinner!

Just as Lu Rongfu said, my rabbit's Yingfu 1 was the latest to be launched and the largest in size, and I didn't plan to compete for the first to reach Mars, because the first to arrive must be the lazy god system, and the other second, third, and fourth, what is the difference of one or two days? Is one or two days enough for the United States and Russia to conquer Mars?

But after arriving on Mars, the advantage in size and the number of crew members will be brought into play, and the time difference of two or three days can be reversed.

But now it's suddenly a race, and all the previous advantages have been wiped out.

After reporting to the ground for ten hours, the ground gave feedback back four plans, and as the captain of the Yingfu No. 1, Shi Buqing had the final decision.

At this time, the Orion spacecraft and the Messiah spacecraft have begun to accelerate.

The Orion spacecraft itself has the greatest advantage in acceleration, it is simply an iron lump flying in the air, the structure is extremely strong, after it has decided on a plan, it immediately closes the communication with the ground, increases the speed of detonating nuclear bombs, and sometimes even detonates two nuclear bombs at a time.

After two hours of acceleration, it was already far faster than the other two ships.

The Messiah spaceship...... Almost as soon as the big challenge began, they began to accelerate wildly, Shi Buqing felt that they didn't take the plan at all, and even thought that they were drunk, and then laughed wildly and stepped on the accelerator to the end......

"As you can see, Yingfu 1 has no advantage in all aspects, we can only break the wrist of a strong man......," Shi Buqing said, "Yingfu 1 has two cabins, and we have decided to temporarily abandon the landing module and only keep the main cabin." In addition, we must minimize the weight of the main compartment, from now on, please take inventory of your belongings, any items that you don't need, leave them in the landing module, all rations are strictly calculated, only the most basic rations are kept, and all fuel is transferred to the main compartment......"

At this moment, the political commissar stood up and said, "We are not the main personnel, please stay in the landing capsule......"

Shi Buqing was stunned.

Left behind in the landing capsule, in an iron can where the fuel is completely empty and can only drift in space?

"No, I don't have any non-principal personnel on board, and I won't leave a single crew member behind. Shi Buqing said resolutely: "First, we will glory together, and third, we will bear it together." ”

An hour later, the Glow-1 separated, and the nunchuck-like spaceship turned into a lone cylindrical shape and flew into the vast universe.

Shi Buqing watched the landing module from the porthole, watched it gradually disappear into the depths of the universe, and saluted silently.

And the main cabin of Yingfu 1, spewing flames, rushed in the direction of Mars, and fought to catch up.

The three spaceships were all accelerating, but the Earthfire Train, which was originally in the first place, was not in a hurry or impatient, and was successively surpassed by the Orion spaceship and the Messiah spaceship.

And its flight trajectory is also quietly adjusting.

……

Five days have passed, and there are less than four days left before Mars, but Glow-1 is still at the end.

The engines of the ship have reached their maximum load, and all the objects that are capable of being dropped are dropped. Everyone's water ration was lowered to a minimum in order to reduce even one gram of their own weight.

But the distance has not been shortened much.

Shi Buqing felt that his hair was so white, and he could feel the unspeakable torment, the pressure that almost collapsed.

Several times, he felt like he was hallucinating, that he was going crazy.

But he still has a boatload of people, so he can only be strong, drink the least amount of water, eat the least amount of food, put on the most bright smile, and seem to be full of confidence.

Take the crew to sing the military song, and if you want to get the first word, you can say a word to your family, write it down and read it to each other, as if you really got the first place, and do your best to ensure morale.

In the confined space, the harsh environment and air, sometimes, Shi Buqing felt that this was simply hell, and he even began to wonder if this "big race" of Nanming wanted to torture them.

He has carried too much, with the pressure of the country behind him, his own pressure, the honor of winning, and the struggle that borders on despair.

When he was appointed to the Glowing One, the glory seemed to fade, and he even felt that he should not have been the captain of the Glowing One.

This hardship, this pressure, and this unspeakable torture made Shi Buqing visibly emaciated, as if someone was digging his flesh with a knife.

He used various methods to pluck up his courage, he recalled the past, when the country was not yet developed, how the ancestors stubbornly fought to win in the face of the enemy's technological crush. recalls the warriors who threw their heads and spilled their blood in the face of the life and death of the country earlier.

Persistence, keep persevering......

It may be that the ship of one country will malfunction, or something else......

But nothing happened, and it was like a hellish day again, and after reporting to the ground, Shi Buqing returned to the command seat and sat down.

He wanted to cry, wanted to contact Nanming, and scolded him severely.

But he still suppressed all impulses, closed his eyes, and silently sorted out his emotions.

Until the second mate next to him was calling him.

"Captain, Captain, Earthfire Train requests contact. ”

"Take it. Shi Buqing took a deep breath and forcibly smiled, letting his tone also bring a smile, no matter what, you can't show cowardice!

You can't let people look down on yourself, and at any time, you can't bend your spine!

"I'm Shi Buqing. After speaking, he subconsciously waited.

Connections in the universe often take a long time to respond.

"Uncle Shi, do you need an assist?" Chen Haocong's voice immediately came from the communication channel.

"Assists?"

"Look at the back. ”

In order to save fuel and energy, all non-major systems of the ship have been shut down.

Hearing this, Shi Buqing hurriedly ordered someone to turn on the external camera.

A few seconds later, the image came.

In the vast universe, a huge spaceship, connected from end to end, like the legendary snake "Uroboros", which is constantly devouring itself, is slowly approaching the main cabin of Glow-1 from the rear.

The white, mostly transparent glass curtain wall, was a huge earth fire train, and almost one carriage could catch up with the entire main cabin.

It swirls around the universe, reflecting and refracting sunlight and starlight, as beautiful as the halo of a god.

"Uncle Shi, activate docking protocol Ajia 22!"

The technical officer looked at Shi Buqing, Shi Buqing took a deep breath and ordered: "Start docking protocol A A 22!"

In an instant, sirens and a soft female voice sounded in the spaceship: "The spacecraft initiates the docking protocol, please fasten the seat belts of all crew members......"

In the camera, the earth fire train behind it is slowly disintegrating. Then the carriages erupted with scorching flames, approaching the Glowing One from both sides.

With a soft "boom", the production connection port of the once little-known small enterprise "Dongbin Wistron" from Dongbin started the enhanced connection under the control protocol written by a start-up technology company in Kanto, and the carriage was tightly mounted on the Yingfu No. 1.

With another "boom", the improved pylons from the corridor company, a small company that had almost gone bankrupt, carried more than three times the impact required by the design, and tightly linked the other two carriages together.

Then, another booming sound sounded.

The carriages disintegrated in the universe and docked with the Glowing One.

At that moment, it seemed that Shi Buqing's gaze swept over the cabin of the Yingfu No. 1.

Every part here seems to be a gaze, watching him.

Behind every part, there are countless technicians, workers' hard work, every part, is like a faint entrustment, a sincere wish.

They have already worked miracles, otherwise I wouldn't be here!

This is my ship!

It will never throw in the towel! I will never throw in the towel!

At that moment, Shi Buqing felt that he was almost about to be reborn.

Winning or losing, winning or losing, or whatever, can't knock me down!

Boom, boom!

The huge carriage, like a space shuttle's thruster and fuel pack, encased the Glow-1 in it.

"The docking is complete, the control protocol connection is complete, the general-purpose mount booster has been incorporated into the system management, resources are being allocated, and the external thruster is being launched. A soft female voice rang out.

"Go!" Chen Haocong's voice resounded in the cabin, "I must win!"

"Boom!"

There was a loud bang that shook the world!

It sounded like an explosion, and then the huge force pressed Shi Buqing to his seat.

In the universe, the eight carriages surrounding the Glowing No. 1 bloomed with a beautiful firework......

"Congcong, you are really my good brother!" Shi Buqing's excited cry echoed in the universe.

"It's a bad time, Uncle Shi!" Chen Haocong watched Yingfu No. 1 go away, crying and laughing.

My dad is your good brother!

After a long time, the communicator suddenly sounded, and when the communication was connected, a man wearing a U.S. Air Force uniform appeared with a big face, shouting in a bird's voice.

"What are you talking about? Why do you want me to help Yingfu No. 1? You still protest against me cheating?" Chen Haocong took out his pocket, took out his ID card, and pointed at the camera in front of him: "Look at my handsome face!"

"Ah, no, it's reversed, look at this national emblem! Do you recognize it? You actually have the face to say that Lao Tzu is cheating? Look at this line of words, do you recognize it, read it out loud to me! What kind of country is this?"

Next to him, Lu Rong gave Chen Haocong a thumbs up in a daze.

You can, you're handsome!

Isn't it really because you don't want to lose money?

"Captain Chen, you were very handsome just now, but now there is still a serious problem......" Lu Rongrong asked Chen Haocong, "You gave our eight-section thrusters to Uncle Shi, what !!!!should we do?"

"It's okay, I have a killer idea!" Chen Haocong turned on the communicator, brewed his emotions for a while, and then cried: "Uncle Ming, Uncle Ming, we are trapped in the universe! Come and save us! Ahhh

Hanging up the communication with a snap, Chen Haocong said: "Okay, in an hour, we will be on Mars." ”

The other three friends turned away silently, it was so embarrassing! I didn't know him!10
