Chapter 5 Change of Guard
In the Celta Particle Optoelectronics Plant, a huge man-made building with beautiful wings, rows of space cabins for people to work and live are neatly arranged opposite the high-energy particle collection ring. They are connected by various horizontal or vertical pipes, and from a distance they look like a "building block" built by the god of the universe for his children, and like a science fiction picture drawn by children. But these sci-fi pictures are so real. In these "building blocks", in a cylindrical building with a powerful high-energy particle protection system, a group of earthlings are whispering through the display as they look at the slowly approaching space plane in the distance.
"It's finally the turn to change the guard, this place is really uncomfortable!"
"But no, according to the data, every day I stay here will lose 2 hours of life, I have been here for three months, and the precious eight days of life have left me, and even my little hair has fallen out. Fortunately, I heard that the Saipan people caused trouble this time, otherwise it would be three months to wait for the next wave of earthlings to come! A man who had lost the slightest hint of the top of his head touched his head and laughed.
"Ming Luoji, it doesn't matter if the head falls off, just don't lose the important parts, otherwise your wife will miss it!" An apparently familiar one looked at him wryly, patting him on the shoulder and smiling. The loud laughter is constantly transmitted in the precious air, and is rebounded by the cabin, the small and relatively small space is rarely full of joy, in the long-term lonely life of the optoelectronic factory, people are good at grasping all the elements of joy, and enjoy the joy in their hearts.
Ming Luoji was obviously accustomed to this, and asked rhetorically: "If you say this, you won't lose all your important parts!" There was even more commotion in the cabin.
"That's it! Don't make a fuss, check all the parts of the cabin, and wait for the Saipan people to come over and hand it over! Cammisha, the only emaciated middle-aged man in the crowd who was not infected by the atmosphere, ordered.
"Yes! Captain! ”
A group of people immediately scattered to inspect each system, in fact, since receiving the notice that the guard will be changed in advance, a comprehensive inspection of each system has been carried out, and now it is only the last re-inspection of each point before returning.
In the spacecraft, the pilot stared nervously at the data on the screen, one of which showed that the data of the high-energy particle departure degree always jumped between 0.05% ~ 0.06%, which is a very safe range, as long as the departure degree does not exceed 1%, there is no danger to the spacecraft. The spacecraft is currently in the protected area of the photoelectric plant, and only a very small part of the high-energy particles scattered by the sun are collected by the collection ring, and with the spacecraft's own high-energy magnetic ionization cover, most of the high-energy particles are blocked from the spacecraft. Landing in a space building is the most dangerous time for space aircraft, and no matter how experienced a pilot is, he will not dare to take it lightly.

As the ship got closer to the optoelectronic plant, a large ring-shaped structure became clear, with three long tentacles extending out of a 120-degree fan-like pattern. This tentacle gradually grows larger in the ship's field of vision, and it is one of the most basic components of space architecture, the spaceship docking station. The docking station can guide the ship to dock when it is near, and in space, it is easy to make an item move, but it is much more difficult to keep an item relatively fixed. The spacecraft docking station is the personnel of the spaceship
Rear of the ship. The safe passage into the space building has the most powerful high-energy particle isolation system in the entire space building, and the escape system is also in it. In each 200-meter-long passage, there is also a small emergency spacecraft, which is one of the most important systems of the entire space station.
The spacecraft finally slowly rose to the designated position, and four huge mechanical arms stretched out and accurately grabbed the two fixed bars exposed at the top of the spaceship, and the spacecraft was considered to be stable. After a minute, a barrel with an outer diameter of several dozen square meters and an inner diameter of only a few square meters slowly stretched out from the docking station, and it was encased on the outer wall of a cabin with a circular hatch above the spaceship, covering it tightly.
"The spaceship docks successfully, and the channel can be opened!" A green light lit up in the cockpit of the spacecraft, and the main pilot, Ruan Chengjiang, breathed a sigh of relief, and then his flight mission this time was over.
The circular hatch opened, and a group of Saipan staggered into the passage with a handrail, and as soon as their feet landed in the station's cabin, the magnetic system on their clothes automatically turned on, and they were able to stand up again. A group of people hesitated to step forward, and for the first time, the entire space station emitted the sound of heavy Symbian footsteps.
Cammisa had been staring at the monitor since the ship docked, and for some reason, he couldn't be happy when he was supposed to change his guard. Looking at those Saipan people who were not particularly professional in walking walking in such an important building, he suddenly had the idea that it was better for us earthlings to be on duty.
After a while, the heavy hatch slowly opened, and a group of small Saipan mermaids entered, and the first of them, a slightly taller Saipan, stepped forward, and the mask was lowered to reveal an extremely bitter face.
"Captain Cammisa! I'm Captain Bormas, and I'm leading the team to take over! The emotionless voice of the Saipan rang out. Camysha smiled and stretched out his hand, even if the Saipan people didn't look at it anymore, it would be pleasant for anyone to show up here to change guards.
"Let's go through the handover procedures! We've got a lot of things to do! Bormas didn't mean to shake hands, but said procedurally, in a voice that looked like a robot.
Seeing that Bormas had no intention of performing a courtesy ceremony, Cammisa withdrew his hand, which was quite rude and inconsistent with space etiquette when he met Saipan in space. Kanmisa glanced at Bormas coldly, and didn't want to worry about them, so he turned around and said, "Meng Chuncheng, prepare for the handover procedures!" ”
As soon as the voice fell, a very capable man behind him walked up with a flat watch, he saw that the captain was frustrated and said with a cold face: "These are the seven most important systems of the optoelectronic plant, and it is okay to check whether it is working normally." ”
Bormas took it and took out a manual to compare it with, which I had written. The seven main systems of the optoelectronic plant are the high-energy particle protection system, the collection ring control system, the optical pool recovery system, the defense system, the space robot maintenance system, the life maintenance system, and the emergency escape system. He asked the two people behind him to come up and take the heads-up display in the cabin to check each system one by one.
The first three systems could not be tested, and each of the back systems Bormas sent people to personally inspect each project, and even the small spacecraft of the escape system was activated
After making sure that it can start normally, do it. The sixteen photon cannons of the Western Defense System all chose one to fire, and 3 seconds after the shooting, they received an inquiry from the earthlings on duty in the Eastern District, and only then did they give up after learning that it was a test firing of the change of defense. In fact, the sixteen photon cannons only have symbolic defensive capabilities, and if they are really attacked by lawbreakers, they will not play a big role, but they are better than nothing.
It was supposed to be a procedural examination that took two hours to finish, and after Bormas closed the small notebook and scanned his brainwaves on the receiving instrument to indicate a normal handover, he finally stretched out his right hand and shook it with Cammisa. He still said with a blank face that should have been insincere: "Captain Cammisha, I wish you a safe home!" ”
"Thank you!" Kanmisa stared at Bormas and said, "I wish you all the best on duty!" ”
The Earthlings put on their protective suits, put on their masks, and made victory gestures to leave this dangerous but important space building for all races of the Alliance. Waiting for the spaceship, sitting in the cabin, looking at the huge building through Ping Xian, some team members finally couldn't help but scold.
"Did these Saipans take the wrong medicine! I don't talk about space etiquette at all, it's really unqualified! ”
"But no, these Saipan people are spoiled by the alliance, aren't they just worth a round at the optoelectronic plant! It's as if he's dead or something! I don't want to think about it, we earthlings have been worth hundreds of years, and it's time to take a break. ”
The team members joked and taunted the Saipan people to each other, venting their frustrations. But someone still made a different voice, "Since we earthlings came here, the optoelectronic plant has basically been guarded by us, and there have been no accidents, so don't have any problems with these Saipans!" ”
"Yu Dong, you are too worried, the optoelectronic factories are fully automatic, and those machines that are exposed to high-energy particles will work accurately if they are of any race, but they will not be stealing because of the change of personnel on duty. There is no concept of stealing from machines. As for the operation of those instruments and systems, I believe they have also been trained before coming, so what is there to worry about? The partner sitting on the east side said disappreciatively.
"Yes! Lao Yu is cautious, so he gave birth to six daughters in a row, and if he was bolder, he would have given birth to a son! A man next to Yu Dong, who was obviously very different from him, joked loudly.
"Higher than the deep, what's wrong with the daughter, the daughter is intimate, that's like you, but I gave birth to three sons, but it seems that I haven't been back much for decades, look at the two of you. Are there any fathers like you? Lao Yu scolded with a smile.
"Isn't it busy at work! I often stay on duty on the space station for most of the year, and they can't find anyone when they come back! I won't come back at all! Gao Shen waved his hand and shrugged his shoulders, looking very helpless. But soon he looked out the window at the bright star, and his eyes were full of Sixu.
"I can finally go home, and I don't know if my little son still recognizes me, and the last time he saw me, he would call him Dad." Another crew member, Garga, said wistfully. The ship was filled with joy, and most people were missing their loved ones in Celta!
