Chapter 2: The Hades
Ge Zi doesn't like the Iron Float very much, she thinks this thing is stupid and heavy, and it is very bad, the Iron Float on the Hades is old goods that I don't know how many hands have passed, and the mask is filled with a strong smell of rust, the one Ge Zi is wearing is even worse, someone may have vomited in it many years ago - if it wasn't for the emergency landing on Titan, this ancient equipment would not be useful at all, who wants to wear thick armor and hike on the surface of an alien planet in a harsh environment?
The girl helped Shi Teng carry the main engine, staggered over the debris and garbage all over the ground, bent down and got out of the airlock chamber, this scientific research station has been abandoned on the edge of the remote world for twenty years, in an extremely harsh environment, many things can no longer be seen in their original appearance, with gray-green and brown-yellow frost, I don't know what kind of liquid is condensed.
As soon as I got out of the airlock room, the wind and rain were blowing in my face.
"Xiao Zi beware, watch your step." Steng's voice came out of his headphones, "It's slippery." ”
Ge Zi lowered his head, and the headlamp of the Iron Floating Tu cast a dim spot of light on the gray-black ice at his feet, and the pillar of light was full of raindrops.
The group walked in the dark in the dark rain, and five pillars of light swept around.
To be honest, no one present has ever been on Titan, this planet called Titan is familiar and unfamiliar to the whole group, just like the sun, people all over the world look down and don't look up, but no one has actually boarded it, the Hades prospecting ship orbits Saturn, often passing by Titan, but no one has ever visited this neighbor's house.
I really went to the door to find out what kind of hell this is on earth.
"Brother Shi, can this computer still be repaired?" Ge Zi asked.
"Theoretically, yes, don't look at it being here for so many years, but ultra-low temperature is less harmful to the semiconductor system than ultra-high temperature." Dai Yue on the side replied, "It is in a very fragile state now, but fortunately it has not been violently destroyed...... With the host we're carrying, it's not inconceivable to have it partially functional again. ”
Ge Zi was taken aback.
She thought that what she was carrying in her hand was a scrapped electronic waste, but she didn't expect Dai Yue to let this pile of garbage speak again?
"Cold storage information, high temperature destroys information." Dai Yue said, "Cooling is a process of slowing down the increase of entropy, the information is solidified in the low temperature, but it is a question of whether it has the ability to read, just like freezing the creature at extremely low temperature, although the creature itself has died, but the information it stores is actually frozen, as long as there is enough technology, we can completely copy an identical out, but if you burn it with fire, then everything becomes carbon dioxide, the information is completely destroyed, and the gods can't save it." ”
"So we have a way to make this computer ...... What's it called, Big White? Can we get Dabai back up and running? Ge Zi was a little surprised.
After the crash of the Hades, they didn't even have a scientific calculator.
It would be a huge boost to get the main computer at Cassini back up and running.
"You listen to Dai Yue's nonsense." Liu Peijia sneered, "His ability to make my cabinet move is amazing." ”
"Go, go, can't you let me brag in front of the little girl?" Dai Yue kicked him, "But then again, there is a feasible plan to repair this computer, this is not blowing, with my twenty years of experience in repairing household appliances, it should be no problem for it to call me dad." ”
"What if it becomes only called Daddy?" Liu Peijia asked.
After walking for about five or six minutes, the distance was no more than a hundred meters, Ge Zi turned his head and looked at Cassini Station again, the dilapidated two-story building had disappeared into the dark rainy night, the haze on the surface of Titan was extremely serious, the visibility was extremely low, such a harsh environment was completely unsuitable for human survival, Ge Zi remembered those people twenty years ago - Mo Yu, Jiang Zi, Hu Donghai, Liang Jing, they lived here twenty years ago, when Cassini Station was still working normally, warm, bright and comfortable.
Ge Zi's spirit suddenly went into a trance, she seemed to see the light in the dimness, the dilapidated building seemed to be rejuvenated, standing on the ice field, and every window emitted bright lights.
After a long time of twenty years, Ge Zi seemed to see them by the window, looking out curiously.
"Xiao Zi?" Steng's voice brought her back to her senses.
Ge Zi woke up, she realized that her thoughts had drifted too far, she had only seen them in videos and records, the girl blinked, and the building with flashing lights disappeared like a mirage.
They arrived at the site of the crash of the Hades prospecting ship, and saw lights piercing the dim fog in the distance, as well as an active Iron Float.
The site of the crash of the Hades is less than 200 meters away from Cassini Station, and it depends on the superb piloting skills of the captain Steng to get so close, the spacecraft landed fifteen kilometers away, and then slid on the ice for more than 15,000 meters before stopping, the stopped spacecraft basically fell apart, fortunately, the crew saved their lives, before entering the atmosphere, Steng let everyone wear the iron float and sit in the airbag and fasten the seat belt, this decision saved everyone's lives, because the next thing is the earth-shaking jumping machine experience, The jumping machine goes from low earth orbit to the surface.
Eventually, the sturdy crew compartment managed to reach Cassini Station, while the body of the Hades was scattered in an area of fifteen kilometers.
"Brother Shi! Eggplant! Xiao Zi! "Someone standing on top of the ship shouting their name, it's a young woman," How's it going at Cassini Station? Can it be inhabited? ”
"Mumu! You okay? Ge Zi shouted back.
As the distance got closer, the full picture of the ship gradually appeared in front of everyone, it was a black behemoth, irregular shape, broken shell and exposed structural stiffeners made it look like an oversized hedgehog, this hedgehog plunged headlong into the ground, and the butt was cocked - the Hades prospecting ship, forty years of meritorious service, Cassini Station had not been abandoned when it was young.
"Hades" is actually a nickname given to it, and its real name is "Iron Man".
You thought it was Iron Man?
Wrong.
It's Wang Jinxi.
The Hades prospecting ship only had one bow left, plunging headlong into the ice, the structure of this spacecraft is actually quite fragile, as soon as it entered the atmosphere, the hull was broken by strong overload, and then the huge air pressure almost tore the outer shell of the spaceship little by little, Zhao Mumu, a communication engineer who stayed on the ship, saw everyone returning, and hurriedly jumped down from the spacecraft to help carry the server host into the cabin.
"This is the computer you found? Can it still be used? ”
"Yes, it might still work."
Ge Zi let go of his hand, took a step back, let out a long breath, and watched the rest of the people climb through the structural break of the spaceship.
Then she sat down and her eyes fell on the blackened shell of the prospecting ship, which was completely scrapped and could no longer fly.
It's really impermanent.
Ge Zi looked at the icy alkane rain around him, and for some reason the situation had developed to this point, it was really like a dream.
Just twenty-four hours ago, she was drinking Coca-Cola in the warm and comfortable cabin.
