Chapter 173: Overtaking in space
The "Glow" spacecraft has reached Mars, and the "Archangel" is still flying in the empty space, although they already know the situation on Mars, know that the other party has gained great prestige, but they still fly towards their destination without regrets.
Since they crossed the orbit of Mars, every minute and every second has broken the record of "the farthest distance flown by a human being".
Before reaching Europa, and with longer and longer communication delays and less and less communication with NASA command headquarters, this world record is the backbone of their support, in addition to the necessary on-time inquiries and mission debriefings.
The "Europa Project" is a bit rushed in the end, although all links are well prepared, but some links are still not taken care of.
There is still a gap between theoretical calculations and data simulations and actual conditions.
"Sidney, it looks like it's time for you to shoot a video today, what are you going to shoot?"
Engineer Mario asks Sidney.
Mario was originally Caucasian, and after more than two months in the spaceship, he looked even whiter, while Sidney's complexion had not changed, it was still so dark, and he was running on the treadmill, and he felt a little shiny after sweating.
Sidney slowly stopped the treadmill, walked down, picked up a towel, wiped his sweat, and gasped: "Huh~Huh~ I don't know what to shoot anymore, do you have any suggestions?" ”
"I don't either," Mario, a middle-aged strong man, blinked his eyes and stroked his beard and said, "Haha, if there is, I'll shoot it myself, how could I throw it to you." ”
Hearing this, Sidney slapped Mario on the shoulder, "You guy, you're so cunning, but I really don't know what to shoot anymore, I have to think about it." ”
"I'd better go take a shower first."
Sidney took a shower, and when it was time to eat, the six of them gathered in the dining room.
Liu Yi not only has the talent of growing vegetables, he also has the talent of cooking, so in addition to some canned and bagged food, he will also cook some dishes to bring a little surprise to the boring life.
"Liu Yi is simply my male god, I can eat stir-fry again today, I almost vomit when I only eat canned food." Beth said excitedly.
"That's right, it's called "Forget it, potatoes are", and I love to eat them! Mario exclaimed, speaking in alliance terms.
This is called "sour and hot shredded potatoes", but it's not "forget the potatoes", your alliance language is still not good. Captain Gordon sat down and corrected him in standard Union language.
"It's still the captain, your alliance language is good, I have to continue to learn," Mario said: "The alliance now not only has a spaceport, but even the space city has been built, I think we will inevitably have to deal with the alliance in space in the future, and it is not good to learn the alliance language well, and intelligent translation is not sincere." ”
"yes, we don't know how to come out this time, although the headquarters has been saying that it's okay, but ......"
Beth also felt a little emotional, but before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Captain Gordon, "Okay, don't talk about this, let's eat first, after eating, think about how to complete the shooting task, last week's shooting task was very reluctant, this week must come out with something new." ”
"Also, eat, eat."
A discussion about the future and the mission ended, and after more than two months in space, there were only six people, all of whom were the best astronauts selected, but inevitably all had some different psychological changes.
After eating, everyone got together and discussed, except for those that were absolutely confidential and could not be seen by others, they felt that the announcement had been announced, and the team members were left to perform the show, but it was okay to perform once or twice, if the video was finished in the future, there were team members performing the show, they would definitely be sprayed to death by the domestic people.
People will wonder if it was right to spend so much money to send them to space, and if taxpayers' money was just wasted?
After discussing for a long time, I didn't discuss anything.,It's just a talent show first.,It's really not good to lecture every day after that.,The professional specialties of the six people are different.,How can you come to a six-issue in turn.,Then think about it slowly.。
The plan was decided, and they immediately started filming, and Sidney took the camera and followed Mario to start the spaceship parade, and they had to find a suitable place to film Mariod's performance.
Finally, they walked to a place with a window to see the space outside, and they all felt that it was a good place, which was perfect for Mariod's talent show and singing "Beautiful Starry Sky".
It's just that they were patting, and Sidney suddenly noticed that something flashed outside the window in the camera, so he quickly stopped to check.
"Mario, look what this is, I just saw something flash by."
"I'll see, there's a screen over here, you turn the screen to the screen......"
They should pay attention to this kind of unexpected situation, and they must also make an official record, because it is related to their life safety, and it is also related to whether there will be any new discoveries.
Although they still couldn't see what it was after being processed by the ship's computer, they sensed that something was wrong and immediately called the captain and the rest of the team.
“…… Why do I feel like a spaceship? I can use my degree as a guarantee, it's definitely not my mental suggestion. Psychologist Elsa said.
"But isn't this too fast, how can the spaceship have such a fast speed, it's ice?" Beth was a little confused.
"Could it be an alien ship?" Liu Yi's brain was opened.
"It's possible!" Sidney high-fived him, "That's what I thought too, haha!" ”
Although Gordon didn't say anything, he also felt that this matter was not that simple, so he reported to the headquarters to see if the headquarters could analyze anything.
Astronauts encounter a lot of situations like this in space, and it's not the first time they've mistaken something else for a flying saucer.
They certainly didn't know that the homestar was about to be messed up.
The Federation doesn't know the news of the "Harmony Clan" and the "Giant Clan", but based on the current mess, they have also guessed some possibilities, and they also have their own news channels, so the huge space agency is not a decoration.
They intercepted the news for three seconds, after all, the energy is too strong, and the direction is so obvious, plus the "Griddorf 581 Mysterious Signal Incident" a long time ago, they also guessed a lot of information.
They also locked the signal source to the South Pole and began to search around the South Pole, and the South Pole is now a mess, and others still think that the Federation should not have a tacit understanding and will come directly to the hard.
The unknown object that flew over just now was the "Kunpeng" unmanned exploration spacecraft of Jupiter launched by Dong Qingchen to find Jupiter's "Kunpeng".
Since the "Archangel" takes the shortest route, the "Kunpeng" spacecraft can only take this route if it wants to reach Jupiter as soon as possible, so there is a drama of "catching shrimp households" flying spacecraft, not to mention the tail lights, and even the body shape is not clear.
After overtaking the Archangel, it quickly reached the vicinity of Jupiter, then abruptly slowed down and docked into Jupiter's orbit in a very rough way.
Rugged unmanned spacecraft are so resistant that they would otherwise not be able to enter the raging atmosphere of Jupiter.
"Sir, the Kunpeng has reached the orbit of Jupiter. ”
