Chapter 249: Resource Planet

……

The Chinese Shenlong starship, the target planet they went to was the farthest from the earth. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Originally, according to the original plan, it would take them 1,500 years to fly to reach the target planet, but now it only takes more than 100 years to reach the target planet.

And after these people go to this target planet 1,500 light-years away from Earth, the vast majority of them have no chance to return to Earth.

Because whether the target planet they go to is suitable for normal human life or not, they will establish a gathering place on that planet and the nearby starry sky and develop it on the spot.

Therefore, it is very difficult for other colonists to have a chance to return to Earth except for the ship's crew, because it is also difficult for most of them to return to Earth if they are the crew of the spaceship.

Even after they go to the target planet and complete the corresponding development plan, they will definitely continue to set off for the unknown starry sky farther away.

And this is just a normal situation, if they encounter some other external factors, it is unknown how long these colonists who go to the unknown starry sky will survive in the end.

After all, in the vast universe, it is difficult to guarantee the safety of everyone's lives, so for the entire Chinese Shenlong starship, the vast majority of the crew and passenger colonists, it can indeed be regarded as the last chance for them to meet on the earth in their lives.

On January 10, the 13th year of the ephemeris, that is, on January 10, 2040, human beings and global media around the world are paying attention to the same thing, that is, the picture of the Chinese Shenlong leaving the earth.

And Yang Yu watched this huge spaceship of more than 2,000 meters leave the space station and set off for the distant and unknown space through the picture in his luxurious residence, and he couldn't help but feel a little yearning in his heart.

"I don't know when I'll be able to find a planet with a similar environment to the Earth. ”

For Yang Yu, only by finding a planet that can allow humans to live normally will he consider leaving the earth, because only in this way can he ensure the safety of his interstellar voyage.

After all, Yang Yu is very important to his own life, and Yang Yu himself will definitely not personally participate in such an unknown interstellar travel and interstellar adventure as now.

Because there are a lot of risks in the few interstellar motherships that go to these three target planets, even Yang Yu wants to leave the earth to go to a wider universe, but until he finds a completely safe place to stay, he will definitely not consider going on any interstellar adventure himself.

In May of the 16th year of the ephemeris, the China Aegis starship and the China Shenwei starship, which had been stopped for transformation and upgrading, also completed their transformation tasks one after another, and then began to fly towards their respective goals.

And the target planet that these two starships are going to, the closest is naturally the target planet that the Aegis starship is going to, and the planet they are going to is only 50 light-years away from the earth.

Before stopping for transformation, they had already flown for more than ten light years, so their journey was only more than 30 light years away, and according to the flight speed of the transformed China Aegis starship, it would take at most 3 years to reach their target planet.

However, for the crew members of the Aegis of China, although the remaining journey of their mission is only 3 years, they still will not waste their lives in vain in these 3 years of boring flight.

Therefore, before departure, these crew members entered their respective dormant chambers again, and entered a new dormant state, but this time they did not sleep for decades, but only for two and a half years.

On March 1, 19 years of the ephemeris, the Chinese Aegis starship finally arrived at the target planet of their mission after nearly 3 years of flight.

And at this time, all the crew members of the Aegis starship woke up at this time.

"Captain, we have now entered the solar system of the target planet, and the ship has stopped flying at warp speed. ”

Wei Chenglin, as the captain of the ship, heard the report of the ship's crew, nodded while giving an order: "Prepare to drop the detector." ”

As soon as the order was given, several small hatches of the Aegis were opened, and several satellite-like vehicles were dropped into the orbit of this desolate planet.

Immediately afterward, the Aegis began to collect specific data on the target planet.

After a series of data analysis, it was quickly concluded that although there is water and life on this planet, this new sphere, which is nearly twice as large as the earth, only has a small amount of water in 1%, and all other places are areas with very harsh climate such as sandstorms.

And the temperature in these sandstorm areas is about minus 50 degrees, and the temperature difference between day and night in those areas where there is a water source is also very large, sometimes the temperature is as high as 30 to 40 degrees, sometimes it is more than two degrees Celsius.

As a result, there are water sources in these areas, but only for a few days there is liquid water, and at other times all the water sources in these areas are turned into glaciers.

Although the atmospheric composition of this planet also has oxygen, the proportion is very small, the proportion of oxygen is less than 5%, and there are also several gases that are harmful to the human body, so human beings can no longer live normally in such an environment.

However, the mineral resources of this planet are very rich, not only has a large amount of iron ore, copper ore, and other rare metals also account for a high proportion, and the mining difficulty is very low, and even several unknown metal elements have been detected on this planet.

And when the China Aegis probed the details of the planet clearly, Yang Yu, who was 50 light-years away, also received data from all aspects of the planet.

"Judging from the data of all aspects of this planet, this planet still has a high potential for transformation, and if it can be successfully transformed, its value will be much greater than that of Mars. ”

The planet is almost twice the size of Earth and has a stronger gravitational pull than Earth, though the crew and other colonists are genetically optimized and trained in gravity.

Therefore, although it will be much more difficult for them to act on this planet than on Earth, this power is still within their range.

Therefore, even if they do not rely on the booster device of the protective suit, they can travel freely on this planet, but they still have to wear an oxygen mask and a simple protective clothing when traveling.
