Chapter 62: Pandora is a power bank
Pandora, night, advance inside the base.
Lu Ping leaned against the window and watched the busy scene outside.
Even at night, there are aerospace planes that land on the runway without stopping, and then take off again after removing the box modules and equipment.
Those containers were their dormitories for some time to come, like the four-person dorm he was in now.
Since the construction area of the forward base was too small, and it was impossible to wait for the expansion to be completed before letting them down, the construction of the primary landing mode was adopted.
Put a large number of module units first, let people live in it first, the detection task or anything will not be delayed, and the base will be built at the same time, and after the construction is completed, these module units can be used in other places, or they can be recycled as materials, anyway, they are not wasted.
These are similar to some of the special construction sites on Earth, except that every time you look up and see the huge planet hanging in the sky, it is incredible, because the planet that has almost obscured the entire sky almost scares out some people with a phobia of giants.
Many people don't even know they have this problem, but this planet is like a litmus test.
This situation made the person in charge of the base unexpected, it turned out that this situation was not found during the test, and now I must not think about going back, so I can only let these people stay in the base while receiving psychological treatment, and just go out less and don't look at the sky.
The Pandora galaxy is located about 50,000 light-years from the solar system, in the southern cross cantilever of the Milky Way, and the entire galaxy is named after the planet where he is located, which has intelligent life...... It doesn't matter in front of the living planet.
There are six planets revolving around a star in the entire galaxy, and Pandora is the moon of the fourth planet, the huge and brilliant planet hanging in the sky.
The planet was named Cyclops, the first of three giant gaseous planets orbiting the star. This blue-purple gas planet is slightly smaller in size and denser than Jupiter in the solar system.
Like Jupiter's "Great Red Spot", the Cyclops planet is also home to a long-lasting giant swirling storm that looks like a giant's eye looking at Pandora, hence the planet's name.
Cyclops has 38 moons, including Pandora, which have been discovered, at least for now, and will be talked about in the future.
Because of this, there are usually 3 to 5 "moons" visible in Pandora's night sky, not counting the cyclops that seem to dominate the entire sky.
It is not a serious moon.
Pandora has a warm climate, and because the mass is slightly smaller than that of the Earth, the gravity is also small, only about 0.8G, but this is not something that anyone can adapt to, at least the people who live on the moon, Mars and asteroids all year round are not easy to adapt, which is why this mission is all earthling.
Its atmosphere is filled with ammonia, methane, chlorine, carbon dioxide, xenon, and a small amount of hydrogen sulfide and a very small amount of hydrogen cyanide. Nitrogen, the main proportion of air on Earth, has been replaced by toxic gases on the planet Pandora. The oxygen content is about 26% of the total content of the atmosphere, which is more than the Earth.
The hydrogen cyanide in the air of Pandora is a deadly threat to humans wounded in battle, and although trace amounts of hydrogen cyanide do not penetrate through the skin, it can kill humans through breathing and blood circulation, so that Luping people cannot survive here without relying on filter masks and extracorporeal bypass equipment.
There is also relatively heavy chlorine, chlorine itself is toxic, and it will form a large amount of hydrochloric acid in the air after combining with water vapor, so the earthlings on this planet cannot bare their bodies when it rains, and the native animals here have also evolved a hard carapace to protect the respiratory organs.
However, these biochemical environments, which are different from those of Earth, have also developed unique ecosystems, with a breathtaking variety of exotic plants and animals.
For example, creatures can grow very huge, with domineering creatures with a wingspan of 25 meters flying sideways, as well as 10-meter-long armored land creatures rampage, and even towering ancient trees more than 300 meters high.
Viewed from space, this beautiful planet is as colorful as the Earth hundreds of millions of years ago.
Under the reflection of the sun of the cyclops, Pandora is lush during the day, but at night it is enveloped in an enchanting blue, which is why the Pandora people have evolved blue skin.
Pandora's day is 30 hours, but the daytime is only 12 hours, and the remaining 18 hours are night, but because the nights are very long, many of Pandora's flora and fauna have the strange property of luminescence, making Pandora at night a different sight.
Its basic structure is similar to that of the Earth, but the difference is that the Earth is a planet and it is a satellite.
It has a powerful source of energy on the outside, the powerful tidal energy generated by the interaction with the cyclops, which causes its crust to move much faster than the Earth, and the increased pressure makes the crustal plates more fragile.
This divides most of the ground into countless small areas of land, giving it more coastlines and fewer inland areas than the Earth.
Its volcanic activity is also more intense than that of the Earth, with numerous volcanoes and geothermal fountains spreading across the continent, spewing directly from underground aquifers and causing rivers to reach boiling points wherever they go.
Pandora's bipolar magnetic field is similar to Earth's, but it has superconducting minerals deep underground, giving it a surface magnetic field that is hundreds of times stronger than Earth's, a powerful magnetic field that can withstand threats from space rays and stellar ejections.
However, its magnetic field is not evenly distributed like the earth, but will produce regional magnetic field distortion in areas with dense superconducting ores, like forming magnetic funnels in the global magnetic field. These magnetic field distortions direct particles emitted by the star to the Pandora's surface, creating a region of super-intense energy radiation.
Pandora's magnetic field also interacts with the Cyclops' more powerful magnetic field, transferring radiant energy from Pandora's interior to the surface. These two magnetic fields form a "magnetic current channel" that connects the magnetic poles of the two planets, producing millions of amperes.
This has a huge effect on the electrical charge movement of the two planets, creating massive auroral storms as well as other electromagnetic phenomena.
Therefore, the planet Pandora is full of forbidden places, and even many native creatures avoid it, let alone humans, which makes the human exploration mission full of obstacles.
However, the attraction of this planet to mankind is also huge, not to mention the research value of the entire planet, and the spectacular suspended mountains in the superconducting mineral-rich areas alone are mouth-watering.
Although the environment there is extremely unfriendly to humans, if humans are determined to mine, they will definitely be able to dig everything up.
Fortunately, the main purpose of mankind this time is not to expand and rob, but to find enemies who can threaten human civilization, otherwise even if the Han and Tang Dynasties vote against it, they will not be able to stop those countries that rely on looting to achieve glory.
If that's the case, what might happen to this beautiful planet and the native intelligent beings that live here.
And now, as long as there are no irreconcilable contradictions between the two sides, they will absolutely cooperate for the sake of a common enemy.
Anyway, now Orange loves this planet.
"I'm worried that there is no place to charge here, those magnetic field distortion areas are simply natural power banks, Lu Ping, you don't have to steal or rob this time, you can charge me just by standing there!"
Due to the abnormal magnetic field of Pandora, ordinary auxiliary watches and AR glasses outside the base cannot be used, so the base issued a three-proof mobile phone to everyone, directly sending Lu Ping's lifestyle back to 200 years ago.
Fortunately, the functions of the three-proof mobile phone are quite complete, and a lot of information about Pandora is stored in it, including various forbidden area information.
Now that the roommates went out to wash, Lu Ping looked at the magnificent night outside by the window, and then glanced at the danger area map on the mobile phone screen and said: "I think you are fooling me, I will definitely die of 'blood boiling' when I stand for a while, what kind of electricity do you charge?" ”
"Don't worry, didn't you say it when you were fighting gangsters in Ceres? After we establish a link, you yourself are equivalent to an electric shock device, not to mention that you won't be hurt, and if you have enough power, it's trivial for you to play as Thor. ”
"I said that the electric shock device was used, but it was not used at the time, but what the hell is Thor, can discharge and fly?"
"Yes, you can fly in the magnetic field distortion zone, just like those suspended mountains."
“?!!”
The shocked Lu Ping looked at the map and then looked at the scene outside the window, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It's a little interesting, I suddenly like this planet a little." ”
