Chapter 228: The "Flash" spaceship

What John said is true, the Ten Rings Alliance does take those laws against outer space very seriously, and if a spacecraft receives a distress message but does not help, the Ten Rings Alliance will let them know what a legal society is.

They have developed a set of rules to ensure the safety of human life in space.

Now everyone who is proficient in spacecraft piloting, pilotage, target analysis, equipment maintenance and other projects is the treasure of the Ten Rings Alliance.

With the development of time, the blockade of space by the Ten Rings Alliance is no longer so strict, but the ban on space tourism has not been lifted, so the people who can enter space are people with advanced technology in a certain field.

In short, the people who can go into space now are all going to work, and none of them are playing.

"Come on, Maxi, drink some water."

John took out two bags of standard space drinking water from the refrigerator, one bag unbuttoned the snap on the straw and stuffed it into his mouth, and handed the other bag to Maxi, and then said angrily: "It's not a year or two since I drove a cargo ship to Mars to deliver supplies, and it's not the first time this kind of thing has happened, and the transportation between Home Star and Mars is still relatively busy." ”

"Although the two planets are moving all the time, and none of the ships will overlap their routes, as long as they are not far apart, a spaceship will come after a while."

"The only question is whether the other party can help, if the ship is too small, or they don't have a senior maintenance engineer, then we will have to wait."

Maxi took the floating water bag, but he didn't dare to drink and speak, but held it in his hand and asked in a panic, "What then, uncle?" As far as I know, the trips between Mars and Home Star during this time are all small ships with similar staffing to ours, and the possibility of having a senior maintenance engineer is very small. ”

"Then wait a few more days, anyway, the spaceship and cargo belong to the freshman group, and we are only responsible for driving the ship, and we can't blame it." Compared with Maxi who has just entered the industry, John is already an old fritter, so he is not nervous at all, and he does not hurry to take advantage of Maxi's speech to suck up all the water in the water bag.

When Maxi heard his uncle's words, he felt that it should be right to listen to his predecessors, so he gradually stopped worrying, but he still had some doubts about how the ship's engine was damaged.

No longer speaking, he unbuttoned the clip on the straw and sucked it up, and began to type the command on the keyboard, intending to find the real culprit.

Since the failure of Europa a few years ago, there has been no long-distance exploration, and the farthest distance is Mars.

But even so, for the sake of the safety of the spacecraft, several major space agencies in the world have also sent spacecraft to sweep here several times, and this matter has been in the news for several days.

On the news, looking at the search spacecraft that sailed away from the spaceport with a mission, many people were moved to tears, and those astronauts were heroes of mankind.

As for how many ships were involved in the whole project, and how many "dangerous objects" were cleared, then the average person does not know.

It is said that this "clean-up program" has not stopped, and it is not uncommon for astronomy enthusiasts to see spaceships departing from the spaceport and posting blurry photos online.

But humans are creatures that always do the kind of thing that bears break corn.

Don't look at the fact that Homestar and Mars are neighbors in interstellar distance, in fact, the distance gap between them is still very large, and it can't be cleaned up at all, plus the "waste" generated by human activities, it is difficult to tell whether the things in this area are getting clearer and clearer.

In addition, people are now also in love with "space burial", and like to launch the ashes of the deceased or even the whole body into space, which really makes space junk more and more.

This area is too big to manage, and although the act of launching directly from the home satellite with a rocket is regulated, the incident of the spacecraft being carried without permission and then released in space has been repeatedly prohibited.

Maxi investigated for a long time without believing in evil, and finally found the murderer who caused the engine to stall.

"Hell, it could have been a coffin that hit the ship's engine, and it looks like a full-size coffin, uncle, come and see this!" Maxi said angrily to John.

"Really?" Hearing this, John also frowned.

The radar record was watched repeatedly, and a camera at the engine captured something, they really felt that the coffin was smashed, the speed of this object was very fast, I don't know how many accidental collisions accelerated, and it evaded the radar search and smashed the engine directly.

“……”

John was completely speechless, he had planned to put his ashes in the universe after his death, but now that he thinks about it, forget it.

If his urn smashed someone else's spaceship, then he didn't know what would happen to his ashes, and he wouldn't be caught by the police, because space was so big.

"This is the Deep Space Group's "Shining Star", we have received your distress message and have rushed to you. ”

Just as they were scolding, the ship's transponder suddenly sounded.

"The "Shining Star" of the Deep Space Group, I have never heard of this spaceship in the Deep Space Group? Before Maxi had time to rejoice, he immediately thought of the question.

"Probably a new ship, right?"

John hurriedly sat back in his driver's seat to check the information, and found that the other party had a joint record from the United Nations, the Ten Rings Alliance and the Deep Space Group, and it must be the spacecraft of the Deep Space Group.

"That's good," Maxi said with a happy patter on his chest and a slightly wistful look, "Although the shipboard of the Deep Space Group is the most expensive on the home planet, their ship is indeed the best, and it may be able to help us." ”

Seeing his nephew's expression, John patted his arm and said, "What, you want to save money to buy a spaceship of the Deep Space Group?" ”

"People always have dreams, uncle, I don't want to sail for others for the rest of my life." Maxi said with his fists clenched.

Listening to Maxi's dreamy words, John shrugged helplessly, as if he was willing to drive a spaceship for others for a lifetime, not because he had no money.

Without saying anything, he immediately urged Maxi to clean up, and the people from the Deep Space Group were coming in a while, and they didn't want to leave a bad impression.

They had been eating, drinking, and trying to fix the engines, so it was a mess in the cabin, things were floating everywhere, the ship was out of power anyway, and it was just the two of them, and they could tolerate empty water bags floating in front of their eyes, but not necessarily others.

The "Shining Star" came faster than they expected, and before they could completely pack up, the spacecraft of the Deep Space Group arrived.

When the "Twinkle Star" approached, the radar on the "White Pearl" could not see anything else.

The "White Pearl" is a standard cargo ship produced by the space shipyard of the New Life Group, which does not have simulated gravity, its cockpit, living module and power module are all at the rear of the spacecraft, with a total length of 30 meters, and the front 80 meters are "fishbone" frames, fixed one by one standard cargo compartments, with a total length of 110 meters.

According to the standards of the Deep Space Group's spacecraft, it is considered a small ship, but in the eyes of people, it is not small.

The Deep Space Group spacecraft that came up directly blocked the sunlight shining through, and suddenly shrouded the "White Pearl" in the shadow of the spacecraft, because its length reached 1,000 meters.

This is Dong Qingchen's ship in the real world, the aggregate of the latest technology of the Deep Space Group, which has been built for five years.

This is also the first voyage after the completion of the trial voyage of the "Flash", and Dong Qingchen also took this opportunity to go out and take a look at the development of the space industry of the Deep Space Group.

By the way, let the huge "flash" shine brightly.

I've seen the moon industry before, and when I was flying to Mars, I received a distress message from the "White Pearl", so I changed its course a little and came over.
