Not only was there laughter and laughter in the ground control center of the Princess Belle Island Space Center, but at this moment, with the lenses of those reporters, the whole world knew about the successful entry of the "Prince Barnett" into orbit around Mars, so the whole world also rejoiced at this moment.

Star Exploration Company's manned Mars exploration program really touches the hearts of almost everyone on Earth, and after several years of popular science publicity, even ordinary people know very well what this manned Mars exploration program means.

Since the former Soviet cosmonaut Yuri. Alexievich. On April 12, 1961, Gagarin took 1 hour and 48 minutes in the Vostok 1 spacecraft and flew around the earth in an orbit 301 kilometers from the earth.

From Gagarin's exit from the earth into space, to the successful entry of the "Prince Barnett" into the orbit around Mars with 12 astronauts, the history of human space on earth has gone through 60 years. In the past 60 years, mankind has launched the "Voyager" unmanned probe, sending greetings to the earth's civilization beyond the solar system; Human beings have also landed on the moon several times in a row, and have launched various unmanned probes to other planets in the entire solar system, with the help of which the entire solar system has been studied.

Among them, human beings have been sending unmanned probes to Mars since 1960, and have carried out the most detailed investigation of the planet that is most likely to become human alien immigrants.

But unfortunately, because of the long distance, this kind of expensive unmanned detector survey operation has not achieved much results.

In terms of human current technology, although there is a theoretical basis for going to Mars, there is always a certain difference between theory and reality. Not to mention anything else, the distance of 56 million kilometers alone is a moat that is difficult to cross.

56 million kilometers is not a joke, although this distance is not even as good as a drop in the ocean in the entire universe, but for the current human beings, it is a threshold that has been difficult to cross.

56 million kilometers, even light, has to travel for more than three minutes, and such a long distance, to send a probe from Earth to Mars, it is even more difficult than you take a gun and shoot a bullet to a flying fly ten kilometers away. After all, how fast do bullets fly? How fast can flies fly? And whether it's a probe or Mars, how fast is it moving? This is simply not on an order of magnitude.

Not to mention going to Mars, even if you go to the moon closest to the earth, how many people have been stumped over the years? Before the appearance of the "Prince Barnett", only the Americans had successfully completed five moon landings in the entire human race, and only 12 of the billions of people in the past few decades left their footprints on the moon!

Compared with the distance of 380,000 kilometers and 56 million kilometers, the gap is not only expressed by the word "difficult"?

In the 60 years since 1960, humans have launched a total of 43 Mars probes to Mars, but unfortunately only 17 have succeeded. Of course, if ESA's Mars Express probe, which has achieved partial success, is counted as half a success, then there are only 17.5 successes and 25.5 failures! As the pioneers of Mars exploration, the former Soviet Union and Russia have handed over a miserable report card, facts have proved that the fine work of Mars exploration is not the success of the rough line of the old Maozi, in the 51 years from 1960 to 2011, Lao Maozi launched a total of 20 probes to Mars, and none of them were successful.

Just launching an unmanned probe to Mars, the success rate is less than 40%, so you can imagine how difficult it is to bring humans to Mars!

However, the manned Mars exploration program is another attempt that human beings have to make, because this plan is the basis for human beings to really start extraterrestrial immigration, and only when human beings can really reach Mars can it be possible to carry out extraterrestrial immigration, and it is possible for human beings to continue in the future.

Originally, no one would have thought that earthlings would be able to send humans to Mars before 2030, but the Star Exploration Company that appeared in the sky actually completed this seemingly impossible mission at the beginning of 2022!

Although the astronauts on the "Prince Barnett" have not yet launched a real operation to land on Mars, the spacecraft has successfully cut into the orbit around Mars, which already shows that the most difficult step in the entire manned Mars exploration program has been completed. The next thing is to land on Mars or leave Mars and return to Earth, which is a relatively simple matter.

After all, the two landing spacecraft "Eagle Falcon" and "Kunpeng" carried by the "Prince Barnett" have both experienced the test of landing on the moon, and these two landing spacecraft have shown unparalleled capabilities when they landed on the moon, and they can fully cope with the requirements of landing on Mars.

In other words, the earthlings landed on Mars, and now they are only one foot away!

When this news gets out, how can we not make the whole earth boil?

As the main funder of this manned Mars exploration program and the initiator of this manned Mars exploration program, Tang Feng has naturally become the focus of global discussion. As a Chinese and an American citizen, in order to show their support for Tang, just when the "Prince Barnett" was about to cut into the orbit around Mars, the President of the United States and the head of Huaxia 1 visited Princess Belle Island again to cheer for the "Prince Barnett" on the spot.

And when the radio waves carrying the news that the "Prince Barnett" successfully cut into the orbit around Mars and flew in the vast space for more than three minutes before arriving on Earth, the head of Huaxia No. 1 and the President of the United States immediately sent a video message of blessing to the "Prince Barnett" on the spot.

It's just that it takes about six and a half minutes for this kind of information to come and go, and it is really anxious to complete a call.

In addition to the President of the United States and the head of Huaxia-1, the heads of state of the astronauts of other countries on the "Prince Barnett" also sent video messages of blessings and celebrations to these astronauts in their respective countries through video link.

The blessings and celebrations from the head of state made the entire "Prince Barnett" also filled with a warm atmosphere. Especially Han. Zheng and George Anthony, it is precisely because of their precise control that the "Prince Barnett" perfectly decelerates and finally successfully cuts into the orbit around Mars. Therefore, after receiving the celebratory messages from the heads of state, the two of them said that in the landing operation on Mars in twelve hours, they must complete the landing mission perfectly!
