No matter how far away the starry sky is, human beings will eventually set foot on it; No matter how many stars there are, mankind will eventually conquer; No matter how small life is, the human mind is infinite.

My child, Lebert, since you have learned to look up at the sky, never bow your head, we are the pioneers, the pioneers who are at the forefront of the times, we dare to be the first in the world, and have no regrets.

These are the words recorded in the final image that Lebert's father left for Lebert, and Lebert has someone program that whenever he turns on his phone and dials his father's number, the video voice will automatically play.

Lebert's father was a brilliant astronaut in the thirties, working on the space station, but unfortunately the space station was very poor at that time, and the reliability was very different from that of modern times.

During an outer body repair mission, the cable is cut by a small piece of sky garbage, and Howe has an accident on the way back.

Lebert's father was forever adrift in the cold silence of space, missing a trace.

When the news reached the family, Lebert still didn't understand what death was, that is, his father could never return home.

Lebert turned off the video that had been replayed countless times, and today he will carry his father's obsession of refrigerating in deep space for thirty years, giving this will back to life.

"Mr. Lebert, do you need habilitation?" A flight attendant with a sweet voice stood outside the door and asked.

"No need, time is pressing, I'm not going to delay, take me to the space elevator!" Lebert refused.

Lebert straightened his beard and hair in the mirror, and as if he remembered something, he said to the flight attendant, "Can you bring me my spacesuit?"

"Sir, you don't need to put on your spacesuit so early, you can put on your own clothes first."

"No, I want to save time changing clothes, so take it now!"

In fact, Lebert doesn't want his face to be exposed to the public eye, and that will be seen by his wife, after all, it is a global live broadcast.

He didn't want to bring his worries into the lives of his wife and daughter, who wouldn't know the truth until he returned from Mars.

"Sir, your spacesuit, instructions have been sent to your phone."

The stewardess backed a cart with an up-to-date spacesuit on it, and she sensibly closed the door to avoid her gaze.

Lebert called up the stereoscopic projection of the new spacesuit from his phone, and the modern spacesuit has been improved in all aspects compared to when he retired himself.

The whole spacesuit is divided into three parts: the upper body, the lower body and the helmet, and each part has a sealing ring buckle directly.

The thickness of the garment is lighter than that of warm clothing worn in winter, but the material is very insulating and cold-resistant, and the flexibility can prevent the blade from cutting through the garment.

Lightweight spacesuits allow astronauts to move freely in space, and also allow ordinary people to have the ability to go into space.

The helmet comes with an intelligent assistance system, and the back of the head is equipped with an oxygen storage and circulation device, which is very small, no longer need to carry an oxygen tank, and a large amount of concentrated oxygen is stored inside, enough to breathe in space for a day, and if the circulation function is turned on, it can be extended for three hours.

Lebert puts the helmet on, fastens the loop, and the intelligent assistance system goes online.

"Drop, I've got my identity loaded, Mr. Lebert, it's a pleasure to serve you."

"The internal respiratory system is turned off, the oxygen supply is stopped, and the mask is halfway open." Lebert gave the order.

The flight attendant had been waiting outside for a long time, and was surprised to see Lebert, whose face was only half exposed, but the professional training made her quickly ignore this.

"Lead the way, I'm ready."

The flight attendant led Lebert out of the building, and the wide airport was crowded with reporters with camera equipment.

The vigilant armed police armed with riot shields held the excited reporters outside, and could only shoot from a distance, and Lebert's hidden face disappointed people.

But it is conceivable that there must be a hot topic on the Internet tonight, that is, what is the true face of Lebert.

Then there will be various pictures of the characters posted on the Internet, and Lebert will be satisfied that he doesn't get hacked too badly.

After three dust-proof and cleaning levels, the elevator compartment of the space elevator appeared in front of Lebert's eyes.

He thought that he might not come here in his short life, obviously he was wrong, although he was not the first batch, and even 100,000 people had landed on Mars before him, but his unique meaning was irreplaceable.

He is the only one who has thousands of spotlights, and the moment he steps into the elevator cabin, it represents the prelude to the first contact between human beings and the alien race!

"Please note that the elevator is ready to go up."

The hatch of the elevator compartment slowly closes, and after a moment of overweight, Lebert sees the whole picture of the city through the transparent outer wall of the space elevator.

The streets of Shangjing City, which should have been in the rush hour, were empty, and everyone sat in front of the light and video news at home, watching his lift-off ceremony, which made him feel a little moved.

Soon, the whole picture of Shangdu could only occupy a very narrow part of the field of vision, and he could see the Eurasian continent, North and South America.

Now his wife and Xiaowei should also sit in front of the light and television news, it will be Xiaowei's birthday in a few days, next month will be the tenth anniversary of his marriage to his wife, and next month will be his mother's birthday and father's sacrifice day.

Oh my God, I didn't think I would miss so many important days, is it too late to regret now?

The clouds flashed in front of me, and in the blink of an eye, they were already above the clouds, and it seemed that they could not go back......

After breaking through the clouds, the sky is no longer blue, and the black curtain characteristic of the universe occupies the field of vision.

"Sir, please don't look in the direction of the sun!" A chime came from inside the elevator.

With this common sense, Lebert naturally knew that it was a foolish thing to observe stars with the naked eye in space, and even wearing a gilded space mask could not challenge the brilliance of the stars.

The zenith space station gradually grew from a small dot to a water-blue sphere below, and the earth is really beautiful, especially after seeing the desolate planets that the universe is full of.

It is hard-won and must be cherished!

"You have arrived at the zenith space station, please carry out activities under the instructions of the space station staff, and it is forbidden to move around at will."

The hatch of the elevator compartment opened, and a male staff member of the space station had been waiting for a long time with a smile on his face, and he stretched out his right hand to take the initiative to shake Lebert's hand.

"Sir, it's an honor to meet you and I wish you all the best on your journey!"

"It's an honor to meet you, so please move on to the next step as soon as possible!"

The staff led him to a hatch, through the glass window of the hatch, Tongtian-2 was quietly suspended in the launch compartment.

Lebert awakens the intelligence in the helmet, where he will perform a single inspection of the spacesuit.

"The oxygen stock is sufficient, the breathing supply device is in good condition, the internal seal is qualified, the appearance is not damaged, and after the inspection, it can enter the vacuum."

Lebert closed the mask, turned on the internal respiratory system, stepped into the decompression chamber, and made an OK gesture to the staff.

"Please note that decompression is underway, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, decompression is complete, and the exterior hatch is open."

Lebert floated in a vacuum, and he gently kicked on the bulkhead like a fish in the water and flew towards Babel-2.

The side door of Babel 2 opened, and Lebert plunged in, inside were rows of seats, he only had to sit in the chairs, everything would be taken care of, the intelligent system had been tested hundreds of times, and there would be no problems.

The light and video message hanging in the center automatically turned on, and Mo He, the person in charge of the United Nations Astronomical Observation Center, appeared on the screen.

"Lebert, good afternoon!"

"Mr. Mo, hello!"

"Do you have some afternoon tea, when you get to Mars, your afternoon tea will become breakfast." Mo He quipped.

"I forgot, it looks like I'll have to double up when I get back." Lebert replied.

"I know a nice restaurant, their afternoon tea is excellent, I'll take you there myself when you come back."

"Then thank you Mo Lao, Mr. Alwin, why is he not here?" Lebert asked.

"Xiao Ai is resting, he has been working for too long, I'll let him know when you land on Mars." Mo He responded.

"To be honest, Mr. Mo, I was really surprised by this trip." Lebert seemed a little nervous.

"Lebert, take it easy, I have a lot of confidence in you, and I am also very confident in Xiao Ai's choice." Mo He comforted.

"Thank you, Mr. Mo, there are so many people looking at me now, I don't want to do something wrong and make people hate to shoot my photos with darts."

"Haha, it seems that you can control your emotions well, so I won't say more."

"Well, Mr. Mo, I'm ready!"

Mo He nodded, he turned his head towards a live broadcast device, cleared his throat, straightened his clothes, and announced loudly: "I announce that the contact plan has been officially launched!"
