Chapter 209: Tedious Interstellar Travel

Yuan Haochen quickly adjusted his emotions. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the depths of the universe, there seems to be loneliness and loneliness all around.

In such an environment, astronauts involved in interstellar travel should avoid excessive mood swings.

Sometimes, we shouldn't even think about the idea of "fighting for our loved ones, for all mankind, and for the civilization of the earth".

Because thinking too much about this topic will only exacerbate the loneliness and loneliness in my heart.

Buzz~Buzz~

A constant sound came from the other end of the hibernation pod.

"It's Smith and Lynn, they're awake." Yuan Haochen immediately realized.

After Hara, the next to wake up was Smith, who came to his hibernation pod and waited quietly.

The lid of the hibernation pod had been opened, but there was still a translucent permeable membrane covering Smith.

Yuan Haochen could see Smith's eyelids rolling, and he didn't know if it was an illusion, as if Smith was trembling.

Smith's chest was rising and falling regularly, and judging by the rate, his respiratory system was already working properly.

From the display of the hibernation pod, Smith's heart rate can be seen rising, and it has now recovered to 40 beats per minute.

This means that Smith will wake up soon.

"Cold ......"

Smith whimpered and let out a sore tooth that sounded a bit like a wail.

"Sure enough, everyone's dormant experience isn't so friendly!" Yuan Haochen chuckled when he thought of this.

A minute later, Smith opened his misty eyes, his vision discrete, apparently not fully awake yet.

"Where is this, it's so cold...... Smith spoke weakly.

"This is Future, welcome back, Smith." Yuan Haochen said with a smile.

"Future......, oh, I'm hibernating......"

Smith's eyes gradually brightened, and it seemed that he had finally figured out the situation and returned his mind to the real world.

"That's right, take it easy, you'll be back to ...... soon"

Half an hour later.

Hara slowly helped Smith up. Compared to himself, Smith's recovery time was much slower than his.

"God, I seem to have had a very long dream, I have been lying in a cold and biting river and cannot move." Smith said, shaking his head.

"Warm water, I promise it's the tastiest drink you've ever had in your life." Hara handed a bottle of water to Smith.

"Thank you very much."

......

Half an hour later, Lynn woke up.

During their adjustment and recovery time, Yuan Haochen helped the two of them prepare a basic food suitable for when they first woke up.

"Thank you, Mr. Commander! Next time, we will definitely try to wake up earlier than you and serve you tea and water!! ”

Smith quipped as he feasted.

"I'm going to wake up early next time, it's disgusting to be asleep." Lynn chimed in.

"No hurry, drink some water." Yuan Haochen smiled and said, "Eat clean, don't waste it." ”

"That's for sure!"

"How is the Future running, and is there any news from Earth?"

"Future is running smoothly, but there is some testing work that will take us some time. Regarding the news from the earth, you can go directly to see it later, there is a surprise. Yuan Haochen took a sip of hot water and replied slowly.

......

“happybirthdaytoyou~”

"Dad, I love you forever......"

A stout Smith was staring at the screen with tears streaming down his face.

"Please, you've watched this video for the tenth time." Lynn complained on the side, but Yuan Haochen smiled and said nothing.

"Look how great my daughter is, she's already out of kindergarten!" Smith continued to say with emotion.

"I can't see that there is such an emotional side under your tough appearance." Lynn was puzzled.

"To make sure there are no accidents, we have to go through all the equipment and systems that need to be inspected." Yuan Haochen proposed to the other two, "Also, the experts on Earth have already sent us specific guidance for action. ”

"Okay, for the sake of the planet, we need to act as soon as possible." Smith agreed.

"And for your lovely daughter!" Lynn said with a smile.

The Mirai spacecraft is the crystallization of the wisdom of Earth's civilization, and of course, it is also blessed with extraterrestrial super technology.

With just one year of operation, it is naturally unlikely that there will be any failures. Yuan judged that some of the fluctuations in the data may be disturbed by cosmic rays or other external factors.

Therefore, it only took the three of them less than a day to complete the task assigned by the Earth Command Center.

Moreover, in the process of operation, they also tested several core components at the same time, and only stopped the inspection work after ensuring that nothing went wrong.

The vastness of the universe is still silent and dark, and the distance hides all the unknown behind the scenes.

Looking out of the porthole, stars from far and near are twinkling in the endless darkness.

The Mirai spacecraft is like a lone leaf in the vast Black Sea, always maintaining its unchanging state, flying towards the distant Alpha Centauri system.

During the entire interstellar journey, the three of them did not have any special tasks. The extremely boring flight work has been handed over to the intelligent navigation flight system, if there is any important task for them, it is to stay healthy, alive, and reach the destination smoothly.

This is just the beginning of the entire interstellar journey, with 9 long years to splurge before reaching the Alpha Centauri system.

During the month-long recovery phase after the dormant period, there was no other exciting or anticipated news from the Mirai spacecraft other than another inconsequential email.

Hara, Smith, and Lynn had already sent messages back to the Earth Command Center, as well as their respective relatives and friends.

After watching the video countless times, Smith and Lynn couldn't get the interest to continue watching.

In contrast, Yuan Haochen was more sensible, and he only read his parents' messages once.

He believes that no matter how beautiful things are, they can't withstand repeated chewing, and only silently staying in his heart is the best choice.

The Future is like a high-level birdcage, brutally becoming the only square inch of space for the three of them in this long time.

Although the cage has a wide variety of entertainment facilities, fitness equipment, a vast number of e-books, and tens of thousands of comedy movies, it still can't change the boring nature of interstellar travel.

"I can't play anymore, and I find that the whole game is completely under your brain's control." Smith complained to Hara.

The days are still dull, in the vast universe, there is no day and night, and the game of [Fighting the Rich Man] is finally tired of being played by the three of them.

Fortunately, the one-month adjustment period is coming to an end, and according to the plan, the three of Yuan Haochen will soon start their second hibernation.

"See you in a year, guys!"

"I hope the next time I wake up, you can bring me tea and water." Yuan Haochen teased.

"Don't worry." Smith said with a smile.

Yuan Haochen changed his clothes again and stepped into the hibernation cabin, but a cold that froze into the bone marrow hit.

The hibernation hatch began to slowly close, and Yuan Haochen soon entered a deep dormant state again...... (To be continued.) )
