Chapter 396: Comparing the Real Voyage Flight

[Honorable Navigator Boss has arrived at his loyal Voyage Ship!] 】

[Tang Chao entered the first real interplanetary spaceship of mankind! ] 】

[Tang Chao has added another super car under his name - an interplanetary voyage spaceship! ] 】

[Tang Chao will be the first boss of an aerospace company to set foot on Mars! ] 】

[The first human to land on Mars - Tang Chao! ] 】

The news came out one by one, all related to Tang Chao, Spore and Mars.

For Tang Chao to become the first person to land on Mars, almost everyone has no objection.

Spore could fly to Mars in a month, and Enterprise was still on its way to Mars.

And Tang Chao is the boss of the navigator, and he is the absolute controller of the navigator, this time the Spore did not cooperate with any organization, it was completely designed and manufactured by the navigator himself, so the entire Spore was registered in his name and belonged to his private spaceship.

The other astronauts were on his spacecraft, and five of them were Navigator's employees, and the other four were from the China National Space Administration, but they had been ordered to listen to Tang Chao's command.

So no one dared to compete with Tang Chao for the first place.

So almost everyone knows that within a month, Tang Chao will set foot on the land of Mars.

On October 17, a violent blue plume erupted from the Superaccelerator engine, pushing the Spore weighing more than 800 tons out of Earth's orbit and heading for Mars.

This time, the spacecraft took away ten astronauts, and it also did not take away the excitement on Earth, but made the excitement more lively than the between.

"I seem to see the future, with this kind of spaceship, human beings can really enter the space age, right?"

"Sure, it only takes 20 days to Mars, this is a symbol of cross-era, human beings have really entered the 'space age' from the 'space age', and the navigator here should be the first to take the lead!"

"Well, the appearance of Spore and this mission to Mars will definitely become a landmark event, marking the entry of mankind into the space age, but it is not a real space age, and when other companies also have interplanetary spacecraft, mankind will truly enter the space age."

"Indeed, when mankind first entered space, the space age was even here, but only when space technology began to popularize and a large number of private space companies began to enter space, can it be regarded as truly entering the space age, and the space age should also need this process."

"I feel that the first time node for mankind to enter the space age should be the Enterprise spacecraft flying out of the Earth-Moon system and into the real solar system, although the Navigator spacecraft is indeed more advanced, but it can't be unreasonable, right?"

"But the Spore of the Navigator is really advanced, not only advanced? And more handsome? The name of the Enterprise is atmospheric, but its ship itself is ...... Not really good? Would it be okay to just have a starship rocket? Sleek like a sci-fi rocket, but it docked with an official Merrican Mars landing module? put his head cone in front of him again, this image is really powerless to complain. ”

"I think it's complicated here? After all, it is about the leap of civilization? But I'm still quite a leader. The reason why human beings were able to enter space in the first place was because of space rocket technology, and airplanes could not fly out of the atmosphere, even if they flew at full strength, it was only suborbital? So there is a problem of technological upgrading and breakthrough here. To this? Comparing the situation of the spore number and the enterprise number can see the problem. ”

"I know that there are two major technological breakthroughs in Spore, one is to install a simulated gravity capsule on the spacecraft, which can reduce the damage to the astronauts' bodies in weightlessness, and the other is a breakthrough in power propulsion? The use of mature large-scale ion engine technology greatly shortens the flight time of long-distance missions? And not on the Enterprise side, or a traditional chemical-fueled rocket? Its mission to Mars is like a plane trying to fly to suborbit. ”

Indeed, the changes of each era? All accompanied by tremendous advances in technology.

Humanity has only entered the space age before? Can until the multiplexing of rockets reduces the cost of orbital transportation? The emergence of orbital shuttles has greatly reduced the cost of manned spaceflight, and also made it more convenient for human beings to enter space, which can be regarded as a big step forward in the space age.

Later, the navigator began to upgrade the technology of the moon to make it easier for humans to land on the moon, but in the final analysis, it was still in the Earth-Moon system, and did not allow humans to break through the Earth-Moon system.

Until now.

The declaration of "leading humanity to that step", Spore did it.

However, the starting thrust of the ion engine was really not good, and it took twice as long as the Enterprise to fly out of the Earth-Moon system, but in the back, the Spore flew faster and faster.

Originally, there were many people waiting to see the Spore "Shrimp Household" Enterprise, but they were destined not to see it, the two spaceships were not on the same route, even if the simulation was used to realize, it was impossible for the Spore to fly next to the Enterprise.

Although they both set off from Earth and went to Mars, their flight routes really did not coincide.

Because the Earth is transported, Mars is also moving.

The flight time of the two spacecraft is not the same, and the flight path is definitely not the same, if it is represented by a line, then the Spore is a short arc, and the arc is small, and the Enterprise is a long arc, and the arc is very large.

The two spacecraft flew out of the Earth-Moon system and separated, which is equivalent to two vehicles coming out of the same place, one to the east and one to the southeast.

During the flight, the two spacecraft also kept sending back videos, sharing some of the life and scientific research daily life of long-distance flight.

After all, this is an unprecedented mission to Mars, and there's so much to show.

Because the Enterprise departed for a month, and there was no movement on the Tianxia side, Merrican was eager to release a small video every day, so that everyone could see what was on the spacecraft to Mars, how the astronauts lived and how to do experiments, and so on.

It's just that Merrican was dumbfounded when the Spore appeared, and after the Spore set off, it rarely posted videos.

However, more and more Spore videos are being released by the Navigator.

Although the enterprise account is no longer issued, it already has a video released a month ago, and it is easy to get the answer by comparing the two sides.

Because of the medium-sized simulated gravity rotating cabin, the Spore can safely provide 0.5G simulated gravity, and even be a little bolder, it will be fine to drive to 0.6G.

But for safety, half of the gravity is about the same.

And because the diameter of the rotating capsule has become larger, the different gravitational conditions felt by the astronauts' heads and feet are much better, and the phenomenon of dizziness has been reduced a lot.

With half gravity, daily life is simply much better, even if you need to exercise to keep calcium and muscle loss, it is much more convenient.

It's like the astronauts on the Enterprise, they can't eat well.

The Enterprise's payload is limited, and it can't eat as much as it does on the low-Earth orbit space station, especially after space cargo becomes simpler, it's simply open to eat.

If you want fresh fruit, you can have pizza, you don't even need special space ice cream, you can eat what you buy from the supermarket, and you can make sure that what you take out of the supermarket fridge is what they eat on the space station.

Such a life on the Enterprise is impossible to achieve.

So the Merriken astronauts' food became the early bagged food.

In order to reduce weight, most of the rehydrated foods are freeze-dried, and the water should be recycled close to the limit state.

Fruits are also exempt, and vitamin supplements can be eaten vitamin tablets.

Yes, they also have to take a lot of medicine when they eat.

The food was not very good, and I had to take so many medicines, it was like a death.

But if you don't take medicine, you will die even more.

The human body is indeed unfit to survive in weightlessness and away from the protection of magnetic fields, and after a month, all six astronauts experienced varying degrees of physical and mental malaise.

On the other hand, the navigator has "its own" advanced technology, and Tang Chao has too many means to deal with the space illusion.

No, comfortable for them, they are also holding the first fitness competition of mankind located outside the Earth-Moon system.

Their energy and spirit are not much different from those on Earth.

The competition is not for nothing, there are prizes.

Although the first person to land on Mars has been decided, the quota for the second landing on Mars has not yet been decided.

Under normal circumstances, many people may not remember the second person who landed on Mars, but now it is not a "two-case" situation.

Tang Chao's identity is too special, he is not an ordinary astronaut at all, and he can't be treated as an ordinary astronaut, so the second person to land on Mars this time has a certain probability that he can be publicized like the first person in the previous space incidents.
