Verse 9: Landing, the other side of happiness (I)

————————————————————————————————————————————————————

What is the concept of the universe?

In a narrow sense, the universe refers to space and matter beyond the Earth's atmosphere; The universe in a broad sense is the general term of all things, the unity of time and space. Therefore, the so-called "space navigation" of human beings is usually based on the narrow sense of "space".

The Planck starship is accelerated by magnetic tracks and directly passes through the stargate into space, getting rid of many restrictions of conventional launches, so that its initial velocity is not consumed by atmospheric drag and the earth's gravity. The structure in the shape of the bow fairing is not set up to protect the main operation room from the influence of aerodynamic forces, but a certain range of space generators, which can drain the substances in contact with the navigation route to the tail and discharge, which perfectly solves the problem that the collision of trillions of photons per second when the aircraft is moving close to the speed of light, which drags down its own speed to a considerable extent, and also avoids the impact of unidentified objects in space from causing irreparable damage to the starship.

However, even if there is no air resistance and collision consumption, the action of various celestial bodies that exist in the universe invisibly still makes the "Planck" have to overcome its gravitational pull in order to maintain its established course, and in just over 10 days, the speed will drop by 30 percent until it enters warped space for the first time, becoming another mode of space navigation between the broad and narrow senses.

It is estimated that it will take four months to reach the destination Virgo 70b, but due to the relativistic effect of "time dilation" at the speed of light at near the speed of light, the news that the "Right Enforcement" aerospace research base has landed on the "Zug" star on the "Planck" Starship is probably many years later. This is another reason why the majority of the crew members of the United German Brigade must go with their immediate family members, after all, they have only lived a short life of four months, and their family members who are still on Earth can be regarded as "violating the basic ethics of human society" compared to them.

In a sense, the crew has achieved immortality in the narrow sense, but none of the people who have actually experienced it are lucky to do so, including Gross, Noah, or the old captain Sebastian.

In this world, they no longer have families who meet the requirements of their peers, because the E-United German Brigade does not include its soldiers and crew members in this family protection measure......

As the old captain's adopted child, Garcia didn't have to follow her grandfather to the alien planet, but Sebastian hoped to see her granddaughter grow up this time, and if she left her at the base to be cared for by others, she couldn't rest assured. Now that the Orff family is by her side, I believe that Garcia will not feel lonely.

"All functional parameters of the starship are normal, and the isolation protection of the steady-state module will be lifted after three minutes, and the non-crew members can move at will." Hearing Hewitt's report in the passenger seat, Sebastian got up and moved his muscles a few times, it seemed that he was indeed old, and even the launch process that he was familiar with on weekdays made his body feel a little unbearable: "Check it carefully again, confirm that there are no risks and anomalies, and then report to the base, 'Planck' successfully entered the Virgo galaxy." Then switch to autopilot, you keep monitoring, and I'll go see the occupants. ”

Hewitt had been accustomed to being cautious with Sebastian many times, but it was the first time that the captain had to check the condition of the crew himself: "After more than ten years, it seems that our lonely old captain finally has a concern in his heart again." Sebastian didn't need to hide anything in front of his acquaintances, but asked him with a look that he couldn't tell: "Bring you a big cup of coffee, can you gag it?" ”

"Add in the classic Black Forest cake[1] and it should be fine."

"When you eat like me and are so fat that you can't even wear a spacesuit, it's a big problem......"

Sebastian laughed at himself and explained his job to the rest of the crew in the first operation room, first detoured to the sweet storage warehouse, brought out two pieces of cut Black Forest cake, and then walked more than two kilometers alone to the steady state cabin in the middle of the hull near the tail side.

The Planck is a steady-state module for passengers, and no matter what state it is in on the outside, the gravity and direction here will always remain constant, even if the starship is spinning at high speed at the moment...... Just like Atlantis, a great western continent that is silent in the deep sea, no matter how big the waves of the sea god makes, it will not be affected by his actions in the slightest.

The specific air pressure, temperature and humidity inside the steady-state cabin are set to the standards suitable for human daily life, and the whole cabin has a complete ecological circulation system and artificial sunlight, and the central park is full of all kinds of green trees and colorful flowers, and even opens up an artificial stream with a waterfall drop. Being able to spend the April interstellar journey in such a comfortable environment, without the roar of the engines, avoiding the deep darkness outside the porthole, and being in a "resort" that combines cutting-edge technology and pure nature, is enough for people to return to the embrace of the earth when they are tired of the boundlessness, and sigh from the bottom of their hearts: it turns out that space navigation is not as terrible as imagined.

The starship voice system reminds that the steady-state cabin has been lifted after the gravity docking with the outside, and if there are crew members who want to visit the internal structure of the "Planck", they are allowed to go out to tour the green area, while the red area is guarded by the St. GSG escort team, and non-crew members are not allowed to enter. Along the way, Sebastian meets several members of the research team and their families, and greets Dr. Dietmar, whose daughter Dietlinde tells herself that Garcia still seems to be in the steady-state chamber and does not come out, and one cannot help but worry: Isn't this little autistic guy not curious about spaceships that can only be seen in science fiction magazines and movies?

Stepping into the steady-state cabin with three valve gates and barriers, it can be said that he has come to another world, Sebastian is not in a hurry to look at his granddaughter, where each family has its own house, although they live together in a spherical space with a diameter of 1.2 kilometers, they still have the basic privacy of being a citizen. The Orff family lived in a wooden house by the stream, but they knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered. Sebastian looked in through the window and saw Orff and Coleinmilia, Garcia and Brana, standing on the ground in a strange position, looking dull, unblinking, and seemingly unresponsive to the outside world......

"Garcia!"

"Carl!! Belinda !! ”

After shooting the glass for a long time, the inside is still motionless. Sebastian felt that the situation was not good, quickly put down the cake, risked his stomach being stuck, lifted the window and directly raised his legs to get in, regardless of the pain of his half-turned butt hitting the ground first, got up and rushed to Garcia, holding her shoulders with both hands, and shaking the small body in front of him that stopped abnormally: "What's wrong with you?" Talk?! ”

The four of them still stood quietly, breathing normally, and their pulses were normal, but there was no other movement.

What the hell is going on, could it be that the launch of the starship has some unknown effect on them? Sebastian, who was completely unaware of the situation, was sweating profusely and was about to call someone to chase after Dr. Dietma, when suddenly there was a "Hello" behind him......

"Haha, Garcia lost!"

Branagh's clapping and shouting made Sebastian, who hurriedly pushed open the door from the house, freeze in place, but Garcia was unconvinced: "Hmph, it's all because Grandpa suddenly broke in like Santa Claus, so I couldn't help but sneeze!" ”

"It's not a good boy to lose a game and rely on others." Celemiria's words finally make Sebastian understand what is happening, it turns out that they are playing the game of "The Mannequin Challenge", where they suddenly come to a standstill and see who moves first! What the hell!!

In order to maintain the image of a kind grandfather, the irritable Sebastian is extremely restrained on weekdays and never gets angry in front of Garcia, but the involuntary green tendons on his forehead still reveal his mentality at the moment: he fell through the window and almost got scared out of heart disease, but his granddaughter actually said that she was Santa Claus, and she lost the game?! At this time, Sebastian's whole person was like a fully automatic coffee machine in operation, the appearance seemed calm, but the heart was actually stirred and heated to the boiling point, Orff saw this, and hurriedly came over to comfort: "It's just a child's game, don't mind, captain." ”

Sebastian responded to Orff's voice very low, but he gritted his teeth and said: "Since you know that it is a child's game, what are you and Belinda doing with you?!" ”

Orff felt the need to teach the old captain about this: "First of all, I proposed to play the 'dummy challenge' together so that they would not be too nervous during the launch. In addition, of course, you must devote yourself to playing games with your children, so that they can truly see you as their partner, rather than a majestic adult. You see, is Garcia much more cheerful now than she was then? ”

Seeing his granddaughter happily and frantically with Orff's daughter as if no one was around, and the relationship was as good as a sister, Sebastian suddenly figured it out, it turned out ...... This is the picture I have always wanted in my heart. In this way, in order to alleviate Garcia's despair and pain about the memories of the past, the pharmacist Josephine specially prepared a special medicine for her to suppress the sadness.

During this time, what Garcia hated the most was the green liquid in the small solvent tube, looking at the disgusting Barra like a goblin, and smelling a disgusting smell of rotten tomatoes: "Grandpa, can you not take medicine today?" Every time I drink that stuff, I feel bad for a long time. When Sebastian heard this, he turned around and took back the plate containing the cake outside the house, and handed it to Garcia: "Grandpa rewarded you with the cake after taking the medicine, and you and Brana were together." ”

Well, grandpa's trick is really amazing......

Looking at the eyes of the foodie next to her staring at the cake, in order not to disappoint her greedy sister, Garcia could only pinch her nose and swallow the unpalatable potion in one gulp. Orff and Colein Mireya looked at each other and smiled, they didn't expect the old captain to treat the child so gently, and they didn't expect that in just half a month, the empathetic Garcia had such a good relationship with her heartless daughter, is this the so-called complementary personalities?

The two children quickly finished eating the cake, and Branah licked the plate with a satisfied smile. Passing by the viewing hall, I suddenly heard a deep and lyrical melody coming from inside, needless to say, this rich and rich timbre can only come from the cello. The owner of the piano, Gort, in addition to studying energy and metals, is also obsessed with using the sound of the piano to bring people the energy and texture of life. With him and his "musical lady" as a companion, this long journey on the sea of stars is finally no longer as dull and lonely as before.

However, what the old captain did not expect was that Branagh also took the violin that her father bought for her, and by chance, he happened to meet Gort during the intermission, and was surprised to see that the piano he was resting aside was actually several times larger than his own, and his body was immediately controlled by curiosity, and despite Garcia's obstruction, he went up and carried and lifted it directly, but he could not put the heavy cello between his shoulders and his chin, and finally had to lay it flat on the ground, and pulled the strings indiscriminately, driving away all the family members and audiences waiting for the next performance......

Being able to drive the cello with this technique similar to chopping melons and vegetables, creating a form of sound waves that is unacceptable to the human ear, the little girl is also a "musical wizard". Gort put the unfinished rum back on the bar, walked over and took the white violin that belonged to Branag from Garcia, and the bow flowed leisurely from the French composer Charles Camille Saint-Saëns's "Introduction and Rondo Caprice", like a falling maple leaf floating in the sky, instantly attracting the attention of Branagh and Garcia.

Since then, Gort, the "starry sky artist" who brought his creation into the vast universe for the first time, has accepted a female disciple, and the blonde hair has the same name as the planet he is about to land. Although her small body is not enough to inherit her cello skills, if she can be trained to be an excellent violin soloist, it will undoubtedly be regarded as a merit for the entire crew of the "Crump" starship.

There is no day or night in Star Airlines, and the crew members who are outside the steady-state cabin can only judge whether they should go back to bed in the lounge by the time displayed on the instrument.

Every time a new journey takes the old captain to get used to, the reason for his insomnia is not the same as before, and he always feels like something is missing. Tossing and turning, Garcia's voice came from outside the door...... It turned out that this was the first time since the attack on the base that she didn't have her grandfather by her side at night, and she couldn't sleep at all.

Although there was only one bed in the captain's lounge, Sebastian was happy to give half of it to his granddaughter, even if she blamed her for her bearded prickly, but at least they both regained a familiar feeling and had a good night's sleep.

Twelve hours later, Hewitt was already fighting in the first operating room, drinking strong coffee and waiting for Sebastian to come over to take over, but the familiar figure who appeared in the main driver's seat allowed himself to squirt liquid out of his mouth in an instant...... Overnight, Sebastian shaved off all the beard he had kept for most of his life! It feels like Santa Claus who has lost his hair, and people can't help but laugh after watching it, and they just want to make fun of it loudly, and all the colleagues present are sleepy for a while.

Four months is not a short time, there are two children who create joy and smiling faces wandering around, adding a lot of interesting stories to the crew members in charge of this manned mission, and the crew members are not idle, in addition to Martha and Noah's hot fight even Gross can't stand it, there is also the mechanical comparison of human [Eliah], muffled all the freight robots carried by the project team are equipped with intelligent remote controls, used to make surprises in the bouquet outside the house where Dietlinde lives, so much effort, The purpose is simply to woo the goddess who once cared for him......

However, the final result was not as good as imagined, [Eliah] was rushed out of the house by Dr. Dietmar around the bib and used a rolling hammer to hide from the steady-state cabin to the computer room in the Red Ground area, and St. GSG grabbed the trespasser and locked him up for three days without saying a word, wasting the 500 rainbow roses that Doppler spent forty days planting for him in the center park......

Orff really convinced his group of members with full personality, and every day he changed his tricks to make the old captain half angry, but then again, it was a good thing that Sebastian didn't find out that he had built a treehouse for Brana and Garcia with the wood from the starship's inventory......

On the days when Planck headed for 70b Virgo, no one measured the passage of time by what day it was, because this criterion originated from Earth a few dozen light-years away, and it no longer applies if it is far away. Instead, the first flight days and the steady-state module turned off the artificial sunlight system for the same time every 12 hours.

Above the Central Park, six holographic screens are simultaneously playing the classic documentary "Hubble Telescope 3D" made by Canada and NASA more than 20 years ago, and among the thick branches of the banyan tree by the stream, Colein Mireya snuggles up to her husband's shoulder, and through the more appropriate window position of the treehouse called "gap", she travels through the starry sky from the first-person perspective for most of the film, recalling the extremely important step taken by mankind in exploring the universe. Branah was still practicing the violin repertoire that Gott had taught her, and in less than 60 days of sailing, her daughter had already learned the same thing, and this experience taught Colein Mireya that it was important to find a good teacher for her children, and that she should not let her father teach her blindly.

The "Galaxy Rose" in Andromeda, the "Giant Storm" in the Lagoon Nebula, the "Bubble Galaxy" in Leo, and the "Star Fingerprint" of the IRAS 12196-6300 star are all the wonders brought to mankind by the Hubble Space Telescope, all of which became the source of Gott's creation, and his first self-composed track "Pillars of Creation" to Branagh was inspired by the M16 Eagle Nebula on the Milky Way Centaur arm, which was also discovered by Hubble.

The "blonde girl" alien scientific research project team landed in Virgo 70b, which is also a kind of "creation" for human beings. And every member of the project team is the pillar of the project. The purpose of the E-Liande Brigade is to confirm that the blonde girl star can be built to be completely suitable for human life through this immigration adaptability test, so as to open up a second "earth" in the universe. Unlike the "Mars Barometric and Gravity Modification Project", since Virgo 70b is far away from the solar system, any artificial change in its planetary environment will not affect the orbit of the earth, in other words, there is no theoretical or substantive threat to our existing base areas, and it will naturally not be questioned and opposed by today's countries.

Maybe the only one who has an opinion on this is just E United Artists, right? Because in addition to Russia, there will soon be a third country in the world that has its own alien colony, and it is "alone" in the true sense of the word......
