Volume 1 Alien Survival Chapter 13 Earth Movement

The light of the stars sprinkled onto the surface of Straw Star, forming a daily line that runs through the entire planet, sweeping across the entire surface of the planet at a uniform speed.

Su Zhao, who was looking at the image of the planet's surface in the monitor, couldn't help but sigh at the magic of nature, and the constantly beating countdown on the other side was also reminding that the optimal landing of the destination was coming directly.

"The countdown is complete, and the scheduled login program starts."

Sirius's landing system was lit up at this time as part of the Federation's safety regulations. The sound of mechanical operation inside the spacecraft is sounded, and the mass balance is carried out, which is used to better maintain the attitude and reduce the pressure on the propulsion system when flying in the atmosphere.

Each ion thruster changes this angle, receiving signals from the attitude control system to work at different powers. The plasma ejected from the jet streaked out a dazzling blue band of light, and several vents in the bow of the ship emitted a deep blue, which was about to approach the power limit.

A hatch at the top of the stern opened, the shipboard satellite was released, and then the satellite mechanical structure was deployed, the flight attitude was adjusted to stabilize in a synchronous orbit, and a communication connection with the spacecraft was established.

As the thrusters operated, the orbital velocity of the ship began to be lost, and the orbital altitude value decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye. The remaining two satellites were dropped at different altitude layers.

At this time, Sirius has entered low-Earth orbit, and gravity will continue to increase the geo-velocity of the spacecraft, and the output of the ground thrusters will increase accordingly. In this tug-of-war of forces, the consumption of ionic fuel began to surge as the gravitational advantage of the star's massive mass began to manifest, approaching a preset value.

"The operating conditions of the ion thruster have reached the preset value, the armor temperature of the F zone has reached the threshold, and the electromagnetic force field is unfolding...... The force field has been deployed"

With the command of the ship's main engine, the core temperature of the fusion main engine began to soar, and the huge amount of energy released was all supplied to the force field generation device. Sirius lit up two bands of light that ran through its entire body, and the strong magnetic field ionized the gas molecules it touched, and the entire spacecraft was wrapped in the ionosphere composed of two regular ellipsoids, emitting a brilliant and dazzling light.

For a short time, it even overshadowed the light of the star, making Sirius the brightest star in the sky of Straw Star at this time, slowly crossing the sky, and a fierce son plunged into the atmospheric ionosphere.

Perhaps, this is where the name Sirius comes from.

At this time, the detection function of the spacecraft is all turned off, and the closed magnetic field and ionosphere isolate all information exchange activities of the spacecraft, and the spacecraft moves along the preset route orbit, which can be said to be a smear advance. Fortunately, the line data that has been calculated by the landing program is transmitted in the signal line, guiding the spacecraft to perform various preset actions like a beacon, and move forward with ease.

"The specified height has been reached, and the force field is closed. Pneumatics are being opened"

Sirius is about to enter the stratosphere, where the dense atmosphere greatly increases the efficiency of the pneumatics, and the difference in atmospheric pressure caused by the low pressure inside the ship also makes the ship like a balloon held up by the planet's atmosphere, constantly slowing down the spacecraft.

The hull slowly extends from the hull with steerable deflectors and fixed lifting wings, which direct the airflow and work in tandem with the ducted fan units on the lifting wings under the instructions of the pneumatic calculation program to stabilize the hull attitude and provide the required lift.

The complex power system allows Sirius to fly at supersonic speed in the atmosphere with a smooth attitude, and the navigation function of the synchronous orbit satellite is also connected to the ship's main engine, providing more accurate guidance for the spacecraft's route.

Su Zhao looked at the ever-shortening route on the flight route map, and the beating countdown reminded him that he was about to embark on a land that had never been set foot by humans since ancient times, and that Straw Star was probably the first time to welcome the arrival of intelligent life.

……

An area dominated by rocks, where only the sound of the wind echoing with the flow of gas, was lonely and empty. The stellar light was still lit up, heating the area, and the sky shortly after dawn was cloudy with convective movements.

Suddenly, the wind began to intensify, and the air flow became manic. The entire chaotic rock divides the passing air flow in a strong manner, forming a complex whirling wind duct, and the sound of various air currents is mixed together to resound on the surface.

The air currents in the sky swirled around and gathered in the clouds, obscuring the sky and the sun, and the whole area was plunged into darkness. The rumbling sound of muffled thunder sounded, joined by the playing of the air current, and acted as a drumbeat; The dense lightning that streaked across the sky lit up the sky with the charge that had accumulated in the atmosphere, and its cry joined the symphony of nature, as noisy as a struck cymbal.

The introductory movement of the three begins to wane, as if waiting for a guest.

Over time, the water vapor accumulated in the clouds reaches its limit and suddenly begins to pour towards the earth. The rain column hit the rock, colliding into a dense rain sound, and it turned out to be the guest who had arrived belatedly! As soon as it entered the bandbox, it exerted its full strength, occupying the center of the stage with its rapid rhythm and great reverberation; Not to be outdone, the wind, thunder, and lightning began to roar with all their might,

The four musicians devoted themselves to the performance of nature's music with all their passion, and they seemed to be going to continue playing. Gradually, they seem to be exhausted and need to take a short rest, and their volume decreases slightly.

Suddenly, a strange guest did not arrive, and the voice went first. A low, sustained sound from the distant sky pierced through the clouds to reach the place, and slowly became sharp and high. The performers slowed down their performances, eager to see the guest for what he really was, waiting for him to visit the stage.

Suddenly, the sound reached a climax and then suddenly became muffled again, and when the musician's heart tightened to think that the guest was going away, the volume turned again, only less sharply.

Something seemed to be moving forward in the thick dark clouds, and it suddenly peeked through the clouds and peeked out, it was Sirius! The guest waiting for this land turned out to be it! The ship tore through the clouds, leaving a passage filled with light, bathing the hull and casting a shadow on the surface, before the passage slowly closed and the sunlight began to retract as if it had completed its guiding mission.

The musicians were delighted to join in the performance of the visitors' voices, and they played the final movement with all their might. The symphony crescendos and fades, and the visitor's voice is continuous and steady, acting as a background of white noise.

This natural and mechanical movement is over, and the sun is taking over the earth again. Sirius poked out of the landing bracket and landed steadily on the solid rock.

……

"The atmospheric activity on this planet is really fierce! It's raining so hard, host, are you sure it's okay here? ”

Su Zhao looked at the heavy rain in front of him on the bridge, and couldn't help but have private doubts,

"According to the calculation of atmospheric data, the level of atmospheric activity at the current location is relatively stable. The measured value of this rainfall intensity comparison is a moderate to weak level. The frequent rainfall activity caused by the proximity of the current area to the liquid ocean is judged to be weak in this ship's program. ”

The main engine replied mechanically, but it seemed that this atmospheric activity was a little disdainful. It's Sirius, the Federation's most advanced small interstellar transport ship, and it can easily take down the planetary landing function.

"The login procedure has been completed, do you want to turn on the gas switch to balance the air pressure in the cabin?"

Su Zhao looked at the air pressure balance plan, and the spaceship's gas exchange would separate nitrogen and rush into the non-personnel activity area of the ship. Personnel areas such as the crew compartment and bridge passage will be filled with adjusted gas ratios. The atmospheric pressure value of 0.3Mpa is still within its own tolerance range, but it needs to be adapted slowly. So he adjusted the pressure preset of his body, and the physical gas circulation system adjusted the pressure preset to cope with the air slowly pumped in by the protective suit.

"The estimated time of air pressure balance in the ship this time: 4h23m, the signal of the personnel self-pressurization device has been detected, and the personnel pressure balance condition has been eliminated."

The best way to adapt to the new stress level is to get a good night's sleep, and Su Zhao returned to bed after giving the command to send out a drone, ready to sleep.

"It's nice to be down-to-earth......"

Su Zhao fully felt the softness of the quilt with his face, slowly fell asleep, and arrived at sleep.
