Chapter 329: Goodbye, Earth
The talks went more smoothly than expected, and after the meeting, Yuan Haochen exchanged some familiar national leaders for a while. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Comrade Hao Chen!"
The current Chinese president is an old acquaintance with him. For nearly a decade, he has been a strong supporter of Yuan Chen's promotion of the interstellar immigration project.
"Chairman Zhang!"
"You're about to leave Earth and fly out of the solar system. This place is a farewell, lonely and thousands of miles away. As an old friend, I am really reluctant to give up. Chairman Zhang said with emotion.
"It's a big deal. If I really want to leave this homeland where I was born and raised, and say goodbye to my relatives and friends, it is really hard to describe the feeling in my heart. Yuan Chenchen said.
"Although there is no goodbye, we must remember that there are still hundreds of millions of compatriots and countrymen on the earth who are worried about you."
Chairman Zhang's resolute face and words were full of concern.
"Rest assured, in this vast universe, we are brothers and sisters! With a poem, the universe has a confidant, and the starry sky is next to each other. Today's separation, he will be reunited one day. Yuan Haochen held Chairman Zhang's hand and said.
Chairman Zhang also clasped Yuan Haochen's hand and said, "By the way, several old leaders have also entrusted me to give you a little blessing." ā
"Thank you! Please also say hello to all the old leaders on my behalf! Help me convey to them that human civilization will continue to grow, and the Chinese nation will have a long history!! ā
"Good! I wish you a smooth journey. ā
"Thank you!"
......
"Goodbye! Everybody! ā
The spacecraft is about to take off, and in the square in front of the launch site, everyone is saying their final goodbyes.
"Goodbye, Durunik!"
Yuan Haochen hugged his white-haired work partner, and his heart couldn't help but feel the bits and pieces of the past 50 years.
Then, Durunik straightened his slightly rickety back, patted Yuan Haochen on the shoulder, and said, "I'm sorry, Yankee, I can't leave with you this time." ā
Durunik is different from Yuan Chen, he is 76 years old this year, and he still has many family members and relatives on Earth, and Space City is really not suitable for him.
"Don't say that! It's a pleasure to be friends with you, and I'm at ease every day I work with you! ā
The parting was too hurtful, and Yuan Haochen knew that after this parting, he and Durunik would never see each other again.
"Hao Chen, my time is about to pass! However, you have just turned a new chapter. Durunik clasped Yuan Chen's hands tightly and said affectionately, "I'm really glad that you can explore a wider universe with everyone's wishes." ā
Yuan Haochen looked at Durunike's wrinkled face, and one familiar picture after another came to mind: gambling in Las Vegas in distress; went to Mars together, experienced the crisis of hurricanes and dust storms, and also appreciated the magnificence of the Mariner Grand Canyon; the joy of discovering terrestrial planets at the Mount Maunaki Observatory in Hawaii; There are also the hardships that have been experienced together to promote the interstellar migration project......
"Yes! I will definitely fly to the edge of the universe and tell you the story of what happened there! ā
"Haha~, okay!" The wrinkles on Durunik's face suddenly relaxed, "My soul will be waiting for your news in heaven!" ā
"Then, the next space city construction task will be handed over to you!!" Yuan Haochen asked.
"Don't worry, within 10 years, no, within 8 years, I promise to send the Third Space City Group out of the solar system!" Durunik patted his chest confidently and said, "As long as I'm still here, there will still be the fourth and fifth Space City groups!" ā
"Good, good!"
Yuan Haochen once again hugged Durunik in his arms, and at this moment, I am afraid that no words will be enough to express the friendship between them.
Finally, Yuan stepped on the spaceship, and with Yuan left several senior officials of the IEA organization and the federal government.
"Goodbye! Everybody! Goodbye! Earth! ā
Yuan said goodbye to everyone by radio.
This scene reminded him of the time when he left Earth in the Mirai spaceship and headed for the Alpha Centauri system.
That time was a grand milestone in the history of human civilization in the exploration of space. But this time, it was more like a helpless escape.
He knew very well that if he left today, he really didn't know when it would be time to return......
"Boom~"
The commandship-level spaceship that Yuan Haochen was riding finally roared from the ground, broke through the clouds and fog, flew out of the atmosphere, and completely disappeared from the sky.
The command ship has the most surging power, and it will soon arrive at the central administrative space city where the federal government is located.
From the moment it flew out of Earth, the people on the spacecraft all fell silent.
Through the portholes, they were looking back at the starry sky and focusing their eyes on the beautiful azure planet.
At this moment, they finally realized the mood of those who left the solar system first.
However, Yuan Haochen didn't look back, he just kept looking ahead.
As the saying goes, don't look back, and see that your intestines are broken!
After too much separation, he was no longer willing to touch the depths of his soul.
"One day, I'll be back!" Yuan Haochen thought silently in his heart.
......
401 space cities, 39 deep space resource development fleets, 1,500 frigates, and a vast number of shuttles are gathering in the Jupiter system.
It took nearly 10 years for the Earth civilization to build a huge space dock and a perfect space port on Jupiter.
The Interstellar Migration Space Group is simply too large, and the total amount of energy it needs to consume will be a terrifying astronomical amount. In order not to burden Earth's energy consumption, all space cities and fleet ships will make a final replenishment of resources in the Jupiter system and store enough nuclear fusion fuel.
Fortunately, Jupiter is indeed an inexhaustible energy source for the current civilization on Earth.
It's just a pity that humanity will no longer be able to tap into her potential until she survives the Gamma-ray Burst crisis. Just like the Mars base, the moon base, no one knows if they will survive this crisis.
The silver-gray command ship had slowly landed in the connecting area of the Central Space City. All the other spaceships and frigates that were ready to go began to converge on the Space City group, and they were ready to perform their duties.
An hour later, Yuan Haochen and other high-ranking officials had already gathered at the central command center of the Space City Group.
"Earth Command Center! The Second Space City Group is about to depart! "Yuan sent a signal to the earth.
"Have a nice trip! Come back soon! ā
Because of the communication delay, it took a while for the news of the earth to come back...... (To be continued.) )
