Mu Mu breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the screen of her laptop in a daze, she had said everything she should have said, Cassini Station was slowly capsizing, but she was neither in a hurry nor panicked, and it was still a long time.

"Mu Mu ......" Ge Zi in his arms moved, and asked in a low voice, "Can we live?" ”

Mu Mu hugged her tightly, reached into the helmet and touched her hair.

"As long as I'm here, you'll be safe."

"Mumu, why did things turn out like this?" Ge Zi asked.

Zhao Mumu smiled bitterly, how could she know why things had turned out like this?

How did they get to this point?

It's still a long time, and Mu Mu still has time to carefully comb through his memories to see if there is anything missing from his message.

It all started five days ago.

That day, they received a reply from the Buran.

"It's a familiar name, old history." Liu Peijia rubbed his chin and tried to recall, "Buran...... Buran ......"

"Isn't the Buran the ship that crashed twenty years ago?" Insight popped out and startled everyone else.

"The same name, right?" Dai Yue shook his head, "There are so many spaceships in the world, there must be more than one named Blizzard, how can we still be in touch with the spaceship that crashed twenty years ago?" The crew has all come back from the dead? Ghost ships? ”

The others looked at each other, Dai Yue was right, the crashed Buran could not be contacted again, this can only be a coincidence, "Blizzard" is not a rare name, it is entirely possible that there is a second Buran in this world - and the legend of the so-called "ghost ship" has disappeared hundreds of years ago, in the era when the navigation technology was not yet developed, when the ocean-going ship crossed the vast ocean, the crew was wiped out due to sepsis or other diseases, leaving only the empty ship floating on the sea, This kind of ship is rumored to be a ghost ship when people come across it, but in the final analysis, a ghost ship is not a ghost, and a sunken ship cannot be seen again.

Twenty years ago, the Buran crashed and burned up in the atmosphere, and it has now turned into cold wreckage and is buried somewhere on the planet.

"How long will it be there?" Stern asked, "Ask them." ”

Mu Mu shook his head, "I can't ask, the signal is too weak, and the contact has been cut off." ”

Liu Peiji squeezed over to look at the computer screen, and sure enough, the contact had been interrupted, and this call for help only lasted more than ten seconds from beginning to end, and Cassini Station only had time to send out his location and his own situation.

Mumu is still debugging, hoping to contact the Buran again.

But she also knew in her heart that it was mostly in vain.

It wasn't Cassini's laptop that determined their ability to reach the outside world, but the buoys suspended in the atmosphere.

Shi Teng and Liu Peijia sat down, and the two of them thought to themselves, "Conservative estimates, this spaceship will not be too far away from us, and if it is too far, it will probably not receive a signal...... How many supplies do we still have? ”

Dai Yue spread out the bag, and the large and small bags and bottles and cans were all placed on the floor, and Shi Teng swept over at a glance, and he had a bottom in his heart.

Let's say that spacecraft is in orbit around Jupiter...... This is a distant estimate, in fact, it is impossible to reach Jupiter's orbit at the farthest, Jupiter's orbit is an average of 4.5 AU distance from Titan, and electromagnetic waves run at the speed of light for more than 30 minutes, and the back and forth is more than an hour.

When contacting the Buran, the shortest interval between sending and receiving information is about 20 minutes, and according to the speed of light, this distance can actually be estimated - ten minutes to come and go, ten minutes to go, electromagnetic waves can travel 180,000,000 kilometers, that is, 180 million kilometers, which means that the Buran spacecraft is 180 million kilometers away from Cassini Station.

Estimating distance at the speed of light is as simple and crude as that.

The distance of 180 million kilometers is actually just one bus stop in interplanetary travel.

From the Earth station to the Martian station, sometimes this is the distance.

However, Stong did not know what kind of ship the Buran was, and the gap between the ships was greater than that between humans and dogs.

The world's most luxurious and largest deep-space spacecraft is Saudi Aramco's giant freighter "King Abdullah", the Middle East dog uses gold as its cabin - anyway, gold is not as valuable as it used to be, this spacecraft has the world's most powerful power integration, driving afterburner at full speed, from the orbit of Jupiter to the orbit of Saturn in only fifteen days.

And the old and dilapidated representative, the "Hades" spacecraft that has crashed, that is, even the taillights of other people can't be seen.

"If that ship can be here...... "at least it won't be too bad?" said Zhuo Zhi. ”

Beyond the orbit of Mars, this is not a place where ordinary small spacecraft can come.

Not to mention Saturn's orbit.

"We use the Hades as a benchmark, and I don't believe it's worse than the Hades." Liu Peijia said, "If the Hades were flying at full speed, how long would it take to run so far?" ”

Stong estimated.

"About ten days."

"In other words, the rescue ship should be there in ten days." Liu Peijia slapped his face, attracting everyone's attention to him, "We can go back alive...... I said God won't let me hang here. ”

Stong looked at him for a moment, thoughtful, and then nodded.

"That's right."

Everyone else breathed a sigh of relief.

Ge Zi hugged Mu Mu tightly.

Mu Mu turned his head and glanced at her, "Xiao Zi, can you stop hanging on me like a koala?" ”

"No, it won't."

"We have enough supplies to hold out until the rescue ship arrives." Dai Yue was very happy, it was a surprise to be able to contact the Buran, and the chances of contacting another human spacecraft in the vast empty space were extremely slim, how weak was the call for help from Cassini Station? It's like a mobile phone vibrating in the middle of a large open space like Tiananmen Square, and it was actually heard, it's incredible, Dai Yue is not a Christian, otherwise he would have knelt down and thanked Heavenly Father now.

The ideal outcome would have been to contact a cargo ship in Jupiter's orbit and wait for the cargo ship to rescue them, but the Buran was obviously much closer to Titan.

They can get help faster.

"Come on, ladies and gentlemen, let's celebrate the successful contact with the rescue ship!" Liu Peijia opened the package, poured a grain of solid fresh water on one person, and then pinched one and held it high, "For the blizzard!" For world peace! For communism! Congratulations on our near-successful rescue! Done! ”

Mu Mu and Xiao Zi also raised the solid fresh water in their hands and collided with the fresh water in the men's hands:

"!"
