Chapter 224: Fly Away
"Wow! it's weightless!" the ants were experiencing the feeling of weightlessness, not paying attention to what the wizard was trying to say.
"Ahem......"
"Ahem......"
"Ahem...... Ahem...... Ahem......"
It wasn't until the wizard coughed a few times that the ants noticed the wizard.
"What are you going to say?" asked Xiao Ran.
The old man remembered something. The wizard said.
"What's the matter?" the other ants also stopped to experience the feeling of weightlessness and asked the wizard.
"The old man remembered the past," the wizard sighed, and looked at the excited ants, "it doesn't matter. ”
"You say. Xiao Ran said.
The old man remembered that the place where the old man was born was not the Shangxuan Empire in Qingyuan Village. In fact, the old man was born on an island, where there are hundreds of millions of ants. I don't remember much of what happened until the man called the messenger appeared, and he resembled a man on the island. The wizard said.
"......Is there a messenger on the island? The people on the island are the star pastors in Chen Xuming's mouth?" asked Xiao Ran.
"Perhaps. The wizard asked.
"Or why, he said that you have some kind of connection with the Star Pastor?" Xiao Ran asked again.
"This ...... Ahem...... The old man can't remember so much. The wizard said.
"Don't rush, think slowly. ”
Xiao Ran looked at the black, clearly visible stars outside the spaceship. This kind of space scene cannot be seen on Earth, and it can only be so clear when it is far from the atmosphere.
Think about it slowly...... Hmph, it's slow, indeed.
At the current speed of the spacecraft, it will be 8 months before it reaches Mars. And that's when the spacecraft is expected to go as fast as it can.
It can be very slow......
Xiao Ran looked out the window, although the spaceship was fast, but here, the speed was almost not felt.
Senior Sister took out the planting box, and from now on, she will cultivate space plants. Once on Mars, the capsule will be used as the first planter.
The spaceship is not big, but it is not small. In addition to the cockpit, there is a living cabin, a planting cabin. The planting pod is about the size of a bedroom. Although the food grown in such a small space may not be enough for two adults, it is more than enough for the ant people.
The senior sister brought a lot of seeds, such as cabbage, radish, cauliflower, potato, pumpkin, loofah, squirrel, green pepper, eggplant, corn, wheat, rice, in addition, there were seeds of fruit trees, persimmon trees, longan trees, peach trees, plum trees, pear trees, apricot trees, everything she could think of.
The first experiment, of course, was planting potatoes. Because of the matter of planting potatoes, my sister also watched a lot in the movie.
Cut the potatoes into small pieces, bury them in the soil, and tamp the soil.
Because of the gravity in space, burying potatoes and watering them is a troublesome thing. The original prepared special planter also has some defects.
Fortunately, Senior Sister and Xiao Ran are both very hands-on people, and soon, they transformed this unqualified planter into a smart planter that can automatically detect temperature and humidity and water automatically.
With the Smart Grower, the planting process is much smoother.
Potatoes are planted on a quarter of the area of the planting room. The other three-quarters were planted with eggplant, cowpeas, and green peppers.
These three vegetables were all planted under Jiang Rui's strong request, because the three fresh vegetables were the pain she had made. Although she once hated such ingredients, when she went to space, for some reason, she had a different kind of emotion for these ingredients.
Slowly, less than two weeks after the excitement of the crowd, his enthusiasm was gone.
Jiang Rui began to miss the wonderful life on the earth, the Internet, mobile phones, games, watching movies......
"Ah!!!! why don't you have a mobile phone signal yet!" Jiang Rui was already screaming for the 3,218th time.
"The ship is like that, you have to get used to it. Senior sister said.
"Oh my God, this is so uncomfortable!" Jiang Rui shouted.
"Bear with it. Senior sister said again.
"Isn't there any electromagnetic ant, why can't you connect to the signal!" Jiang Rui said.
"It's not that fast. Xiao Ran said, "I'm only training in satellite communication decoding now." ”
This is indeed different from on the earth, when on the earth, the electromagnetic ants can see things and transmit them to the base station through the transcoder, and Xiaoran in the cultivator, through the same signal as a mobile phone, can receive the information sent by the electromagnetic ants, and then through decoding, the electromagnetic ants can hear and see the information displayed on the screen of the cultivator.
The role of electromagnetic ants in it is equivalent to the role of microphone + camera + video and audio coding + sending signals.
However, in this space, the signals sent by the Earth are much more complicated.
There is no fixed base station here, and the attenuation of electromagnetic wave communication in the universe is very serious, and there are even fewer devices that can communicate with spacecraft.
Although SPACE-M has many satellites, most of them are for communication services on the earth's surface, and their orientation is also facing the earth, not spacecraft that deviates from the earth.
At the moment, SPACE-M has only one satellite responsible for communicating with the spacecraft. The satellite is powerful enough to receive and relay electromagnetic signals from Mars.
It is obviously unrealistic to use the spacecraft's signal to connect to the Internet, because, first, only one-third of the time a day can receive the signal from the satellite, and second, if the spacecraft keeps communicating with the earth, under the high-power electromagnetic wave transmission, the spacecraft's energy is far from enough.
As the distance increases, a single conversation with the Earth will not consume less energy than hauling a 40-ton truck.
Xiao Ran is now training in the knowledge of electromagnetic ants, and the electromagnetic ants have mastered the encoding and decoding of some communications. It is not known how much potential the ant has at this time, but if it can communicate directly with the Earth, then by the time Niusk launches a third satellite to communicate with the spacecraft, the spacecraft will be connected to the Earth's network twenty-four hours a day.
Although the delay will be very serious, you can't play a Glory of Kings or something, but, download a film to see, it's also a very good entertainment.
In addition to sleeping, Jiang Rui would come over every ten minutes to see how the electromagnetic ants were studying, and she had been supervising this place, waiting for the network she wanted.
"The days without the Internet are really too bitter! What's more, there are only three spaces here to move!" As soon as the novelty of seeing space passed, Jiang Rui shouted boredom every day.
There is no day and night on the spaceship, only time, and Jiang Rui's boredom has no day and night, only all the time.
However, the study of electromagnetic ants is very long, after all, he has not learned such a deep principle, in addition to transmitting and receiving electromagnetic waves, he also has to learn various communication mechanisms.
"How long will it take!" Jiang Rui complained again.
"Earlier, the TCP/IP handshake was just learned. Xiao Ran said.
