Chapter 444: Landing on Mars
A giant spaceship is driving in the darkness of space, and the logo of the New Frontiers Corporation can be seen on the ship.
On the spaceship, the faces of the scientists were blue and full of frightened expressions.
Just now, they experienced a large solar storm, and although the magnetic cutting shield was turned on, they were terrified to hear the sound of "stinging, stinging, stinging" from outside the spacecraft.
Solar storms carry a large number of protons, electrons and other heavy ion streams, and are one of the greatest threats to mankind since the beginning of the interstellar era.
It can destroy electronic equipment, cause serious damage to instruments on board spacecraft.
If the electronic instruments on the spaceship are damaged, they will be trapped in the spaceship, unable to get in touch with the outside world, which means that they will be trapped in space forever, and only death awaits them.
But fortunately, there is a magnetic cutting shield, which protects the safety of the spacecraft.
The "stinging, stinging" sound I heard before was the electromagnetic noise between the solar storm and the magnetic cutting shield.
This solar storm covered tens of millions of kilometers of space, and it lasted for more than two hours before the spacecraft left the scope of the solar storm, and the stinging sound disappeared.
"Are we safe?"
"Well, it's safe!"
The crowd cheered, rejoicing that they were alive.
These people are the foreign scientists who were sent to Mars by Lin Feng.
Although they didn't agree to die, under Lin Feng's mandatory request, they still obediently boarded the spaceship and headed for Mars.
Lin Feng naturally wouldn't joke with their lives, not to mention that these scientists were people Lin Feng valued.
Before sending them to Mars, Lin Feng knew everything about the data of Mars. Gravity, air composition, crustal movement, surface climate, and so on, these data have been collected long ago, and Hawking has calculated the safest interstellar route.
It can be said that they will not encounter any danger when they go to Mars this time, and they will be greeted by an advanced intelligent robot force, which will escort Martian activities.
As for Lin Feng's purpose, there are two.
One is to knock some of these foreign scientists to broaden their horizons and make it easier for Lin Feng to use in the future.
The other is to prepare for the development of Mars and Martian settlements, after all, in the development of the moon, there is already a complete construction plan, and after arriving on Mars, just follow the plan.
And the role of these scientists is nothing more than to collect data and build a better Martian colonization program.
"Lin Feng is not harming us, but helping us."
The old man who knelt down for Lin Feng before said slowly.
When all the scientists heard this, they nodded secretly, agreeing with this idea.
After they look at the data, they understand everything.
"Lin Feng, the godfather of science and technology, is worthy of the word 'godfather', I am convinced." Another old man also nodded and continued: "Although the Chinese people have a lot of preferential treatment, our foreign scientific community is the first to land on Mars, and in this regard, the godfather of science and technology is impartial and has a great demeanor, which is what I admire." ”
"Yes, we were the first scientists to land on Mars."
"As an animal behaviorist, I'm honored to be on Mars."
"Let's not divide the foreign scientific community, Lin Feng is the first person in the scientific community, let's take Lin Feng as the standard!"
"Yes, it makes sense, technology knows no borders."
These scientists have forgotten their previous fears and replaced them with excitement.
In the matter of landing in space, foreigners can hardly participate in it, let alone scientists like them, but this time, Lin Feng gave them a great opportunity.
"Don't talk about it, hurry up and get familiar with your work, there can't be any mistakes in this Mars development, otherwise, we will have no face to face the godfather of science and technology."
The old man knocked on the table and said in a deep voice.
He can't forget the "Old Man Xu" who appeared in the scientific community of China, who was the first biogeneticist to land in space, and envied everyone in the academic community.
Today, they also have the privilege of making their own history.
"Yes, the godfather of technology can't be disappointed."
Everyone looked abrupt, and they were all busy with the work at hand.
The spacecraft flew in the vast darkness for nearly three months, and seeing that it was about to reach Mars, the spacecraft began to slow down and prepare for landing at any time.
The foreign scientists were lying on the edge of the spacecraft window, and at a glance, Mars was like a burning fireball, shining red in the dark night.
It is precisely because Mars contains a large amount of iron oxide that it will appear this color, which is described in the information given by Lin Feng.
Seeing Mars close in sight, the scientists were red-nosed and extremely excited.
After flying in space for three months in a row, they had already reached the limit of their patience, and now that they had reached their destination, they were naturally overjoyed.
To this end, they went to the planting cabin to pick some giant vegetables, made a vegetable salad, and had a full meal, and then combined with the "Larfi" red wine of Shanghua, the meal was delicious.
In each spaceship, there are planting pods, mainly so that passengers can enjoy fresh food in space.
They were quite a novelty before, and after a few months, they were not surprised, and if they patronized the surprise, the things on the ship would be amazed for a lifetime.
During the landing of the spacecraft, there were no sparks like on Earth.
Since the gravity of Mars is smaller than that of Earth, and the atmosphere is thinner than that of Earth, it is destined to have no friction and heat, and even fly from Mars to space with little effort.
As far as the eye can see, the plains and mountains of Mars can be seen at a glance, and as a whole, Mars looks like a rusty planet, very similar to the desert of the earth.
Of course, the most striking thing is a small base built on the surface of Mars.
It was the intelligent robot that Lin Feng sent to Mars in 2019, and these robots not only completed the construction of a small base, but also investigated Mars for a year to complete a comprehensive survey of Mars, and all the data on Mars were provided by these robots.
Just as it was about to land, the spacecraft suddenly sounded a shrill siren.
"Received a storm warning from the Mars satellite, the diameter of the storm is 2,100 meters, the declination angle is 14 degrees, the strength is 7,300 Newtons, and the nature is a dust particle storm......"
Hearing this alarm, the scientists secretly said that their lives were miserable, they encountered a solar storm in space, and now they have encountered a Martian storm on Mars, and all the "good things" have been put on their feet.
At this time, the naked eye can see the storm covering the sky, and the fiery red dust particles hit the surface of the spaceship, crackling sound, and the visibility is almost zero, like the end of the world.
"What are we going to do?"
A scientist from an island nation worried.
