Chapter 725: Martian Volunteers
Pei Jie came out of the training pool, took off his oxygen and diving goggles, took a deep breath, and slowly took off the oxygen cylinder on his body.
In the slightly tired face, there is firmness and resilience.
This is daily space training.
As one of the first Mars volunteers, he has been involved in the project since its inception. The Mars survival volunteers of the Marching Ant Group are selected from among ordinary college students.
The selection also requires a long period of special professional training.
Due to the poverty of his family, the subsidy given by the marching ant group is very high, and he also likes space and has a dream of going to space, so in his junior year, he participated in the Mars volunteer selection of the marching ant group.
For ordinary people, this is a passage up the march ant group.
As an ordinary college student, they only need to pass the test of the marching ant group and the training of the flying ant space training base before they can become a real elite.
Fortunately, it was his tenacity accumulated from hard work that allowed him to pass the tests and join the first phase of Mars volunteers, and became the most outstanding one in the volunteer team.
After a long period of training, the volunteers also went to the space hotel of marching ants once to adapt to the life and environment of space.
The first team of volunteers consisted of eight people, four domestic volunteers, four volunteers from other countries, and he was the captain.
Now everyone is waiting for the announcement of the trip to Mars from above.
Now it's a daily training to maintain the habit.
In addition to training, they also spend time each day attending classes to learn about the current environmental changes on Mars.
The sealed training makes it impossible for them to contact the outside world, but they get a lot of information. The degree of development of Mars and related technologies by the marching ant group has reached the level of terror.
"Pei Jie, come up to inform you and go to the central training ground to gather."
The reminder of the training instructor made Pei Jie instantly come to his senses, got up and went to the locker room, changed into his daily uniform, and quickly went to the central training ground.
When Pei Jie arrived, several other volunteers were already waiting.
Including him, eight volunteers, six men and two women, after a long period of training, the men looked very strong, and the women were also heroic.
Everyone puffed up their chests and waited for the announcement.
Fang Hong swept around all the volunteers and nodded in satisfaction.
He was one of the first astronauts of Flying Ant Space and is now retired as the director of the training center.
Judging from the data and training, these volunteers have mastered excellent skills, and there is no big problem in entering the ranks of professional astronauts in Flying Ant Aerospace in the future.
When the volunteers arrived, Fang Hong cleared his throat and took out a paper notice.
"The time is ripe to set off for Mars."
In just two sentences, the spirit of all the Martian volunteers on the field was shocked.
"Start preparing tomorrow, no need to train, use tomorrow's time, you can take a look at the latest environment on Mars and understand the latest situation of the Martian environment and the base you need to go to."
"Roger."
Eight people agreed.
Pei Jie was faintly excited, a little worried, and his mood was complicated, and several other people were also in different moods.
After a long day of training, the day is finally coming.
Seeing their mental outlook, Fang Hong nodded with satisfaction.
"Until the day after tomorrow, you will have a chance to talk to your family and arrange your own time to go to the call room."
Eight Martian volunteers smiled in surprise.
The closed training gave him no chance to contact his family at all.
Before starting training, he had already told his family that the company needed closed training for a long time, so his family would not worry about him.
Now that he needs to travel to Mars, he still has to contact his family.
Mars volunteers, to put it bluntly, are people who go to Mars for environmental tests, and they are considered high-level guinea pigs, but these tests are voluntary on both sides.
They also learn a lot of skills.
All of their training is free of charge.
In the event of an accident, they will also have a high compensation payment, which will be enough for his family to have food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
Now he is half an employee of Flying Ant Aerospace.
If they pass the test on Mars safely, they will learn enough professional skills to become a good astronaut, and after the test is completed, they will directly enter the astronaut team of the Marching Ant Group.
It was a coveted position for countless people.
After the dismissal, everyone couldn't wait to go back to the dormitory to change into civilian clothes and go to the intercom room.
"Mom and Dad, are you all well?"
"Alright, all right, son, is your training complete?" On the other end of the video, there is a middle-aged man with a tired face.
"It's done today, and I'm on a business trip the day after tomorrow, and it will take a while to come back, so I'll give you a call." Pei Jie took a deep breath and said.
"Then you work well, work is important. There are no good girls among the colleagues around you. ”
"Colleagues around, there aren't many girls, what's wrong?"
"Looking for a daughter-in-law, you don't have it there, my mother will give you a girl here in my hometown, and I'll meet you again when you get home." The middle-aged woman next to her hurriedly laughed.
The son is more happy than any happy event.
“……”
Pei Jie didn't know whether he should cry or laugh.
"Okay, I'll take a look when I get home, you and Dad should pay attention to your health, I have received the money I sent home, right?"
It was a subsidy given to him by the marching ant group, and he was closed to the base for training, and where he didn't need the money at all, he sent it all back, saying that it was his own salary.
"I'm also discussing with your dad to build a house and wait for you to come back and marry a daughter-in-law."
"......" Pei Jie smiled: "Okay, when I come back from this business trip, I'll go home, is the rice at home harvested now?" ”
"No, it's going to be a week."
"There should be agricultural machinery in the fields in the village, you don't have to collect it yourself in the future, hire agricultural machinery to collect it, it's not bad for the two hundred yuan."
"Okay, listen to you."
“……”
The call lasted for ten minutes, and it was all homely, so Pei Jie put down the phone a little reluctantly.
This is a very important call, if there is an accident in this Martian survival test, this is the last meeting with the family, as for the suicide note, it has been written as early as when he entered the training team.
……
Two days, not long or short, the time to leave for Mars soon arrived.
On the airfield of Flying Ant Spaceflight, there is a plane parked, which is larger than the Goddess, which is different from the Celestial Woman and the Flying Ant.
Now is the busiest time for Mars development, and three spacecraft are still too few to juggle space tourism, lunar tourism and Mars missions. Chen Mo built three more spaceships, the Tiannu-class spaceships, namely: Xia Nu, Fairy and Xuannu.
Docked at the airport in front of me is the Heroine.
The shape is about the same size as the Celestial Maiden, but the livery and number are different, so it is easy to distinguish.
Chen Mo stood in front of the farewell procession, and the ink girl was next to him.
This mission is very important, so Chen Mo personally came to see off the eight volunteers.
As long as these eight volunteers can survive in the natural conditions of Mars for a week without protective clothing and oxygen masks, the task of Mars transformation will be completely completed.
At that time, he will complete the task of the golden permission of the science and technology library and open the next level of permission of the science and technology library.
Seeing the volunteers who landed on Mars coming out, Chen Mo smiled and reached out to shake them. As a boss and researcher of the project, he also has a responsibility to greet these volunteers.
The leader was Pei Jie, the captain of the volunteer team, and the other team members followed.
Chen Mo held Pei Jie's hand and said with a smile: "Triumph as soon as possible." ”
"Thank you, boss."
Chen Mo came over in person, which made Pei Jie a little flattered, his chest straightened, his voice was firm, he let go of his hand, and boarded the Xia Girl.
"Triumph soon."
Chen Mo shook hands with each volunteer and confirmed that he needed to prepare for takeoff before leaving the airport and heading to the command center.
"Ready for take-off, five minutes ......"
The time signal appeared on the big screen in the command center, and the staff of the Flying Ant Space Center were all preparing step by step. The spacecraft has taken off too many times, and there used to be some tension and ritual, but now it feels like sending them off an ordinary flight.
Call......
Five minutes later, the Heroine slowly floated and soared into the sky to start its journey to Mars.
Chen Mo looked at the heroine who disappeared into the sky, turned around and left the command center.
He has absolute confidence that the final experiment of this Mars transformation can be completed, and on the premise of ensuring the safety of these Martian volunteers.
The atmospheric environment of Mars is basically mature, and the medical support of the base integrates many technologies that Chen Mo took out of the library, as long as the astronauts are not brain dead instantly, they can be snatched back from the hands of death.
Including superbugs and mutated viruses that may appear on Mars, he has prepared a response plan.
