Chapter 4: Hello David

"Cut the rope!"

Tennessee, pulling a new steel rope handed by his assistant Encore, cut the steel cable that had bound the sails in the air.

Encore, on the other hand, was at the winch below to start the winch, and he looked up at Tennessee in the distance and asked, "Is everything going well?" ”

Tennessee was now fastened with the new steel rope and said into the headset in his helmet, "Everything is going well, you should really come and see the scenery here!" ”

Someone in the spaceship replied in the communication channel, "We won't see anything until you fix the camera array." ”

"Well, you can look out the window!"

Tennessee worked and chattered until he was sure that the rope in his hand was completely secured.

He said to Encore from the audio: "Okay, cut the tightrope and prepare to pull the sails, do you really imagine it going so smoothly?" ”

Encore gave a thumbs up and said very easily, "Okay, start the winch Tennessee." ”

After the winch is restarted, the steel cable is quickly retracted, and the sail is pulled apart little by little, and repositioned to the correct position to form a complete sail surface.

When the sails were re-worked, the entire ship's motors were also working from the heart, and the entire power system was restored.

The power was restored little by little, and the overall power consumption that had been paralyzed by the huge overload impact had been completely restored, and the light filled the entire spaceship.

The crowd on the bridge was quickly moving a series of switches to restart the ship's power system and all the functions that would automatically shut down after an overload.

Wang Yonghao sat in the captain's seat at the back and sighed happily: "Well done Tennessee!" ”

Captain No. 2 O'Lang also said in the communication channel: "We are now about to restore the power system and are ready to set sail again." ”

Tennessee and Encore quipped on the channel: "Don't leave us out there!" ”

Tennessee's wife immediately turned around and asked Wang Yonghao in a pretentious manner: "Can the captain leave Tennessee alone?" ”

The people on the boat laughed, and Wang Yonghao finally said: "Tennessee can come back!" ”

The two mechanics who were doing the repair work outside were really in a good mood at the moment, and they were so happy that they had the heart to sing, because they didn't expect that this repair would be so easy.

The current situation is already ready for them to set sail again.

The two of them began to walk towards the door of the decompression chamber one by one, and Encore said to Tennessee behind him: "Tennessee, my work here has been completed, and now I am ready to go back!" ”

Tennessee also began to follow the charging crew back to the decompression chamber, and he looked at the figure from a distance, just like him, wearing a yellow space suit.

He followed behind and said, "Okay, I'll follow you back to the cabin!" I also hope that everyone will prepare a cold beer after a hard work. ”

"Zizi Zizi~"

Tennessee, who was climbing over the plane of the parallel sail to the hull of the ship, was suddenly confused by a telecommunications noise.

"What is this? Do you see anything? ”

Tennessee's words and the cacophony of the communication channel attracted the attention of everyone at the bridge control terminal.

O'Lang hurriedly asked, "Tennessee, can you hear me, Tennessee?" ”

And Tennessee, who was still troubled by the noise of telecommunications, also scolded angrily because of the strong noise: "What kind of shit is this? ”

The murmur continued for a while, and Tennessee floated in the air for a while, because the murmur was so disturbing that he could not continue to move forward calmly.

The people on the bridge were calling out to him, trying to get a response from him, and it wasn't until a few moments after the shock of the TV noise had passed that Tennessee was barely bothered by the noise.

"I'll go back now, right away!"

On the bridge, people gathered in front of an acoustic spectrum analyzer and inserted a piece of information from a Tennessee helmet into the machine with an information card.

The android immediately set up a virtual screen-like projection and began analyzing the sound spectrum.

"Zizi Zizi~"

The one that can be played is a pure cacophony.

"Probably an alien signal!"

But the android said, "You can accept it, but it's because you're drifting too far beyond our communication buffer." ”

Everyone stared at the audio image that appeared in the air, but they couldn't really hear anything.

Wang Yonghao asked the shipborne intelligent system "Mom" and said: "May I ask 'Mom', does this include audio?" ”

"Tidying up, please wait!" The voice of the shipboard intelligence system "Mother" came from the air: "I've re-edited this audio, Captain Jacob. ”

"Zizi Zizi~"

But what came out still sounded like a telecom murmur.

Ou Lang thought a little frustratedly: "It must be an echo, our instruments are quite damaged." ”

The crowd probably believed this, because they couldn't hear anything at all.

But Faris said, "But when we restore the device, we will find that we get one of these messages every 46 seconds." ”

And Tennessee seems to hear something?

He frowned and began to hum a rhythm: "Uh-hum ~ uh-hum hum ~ byemymatter ~ uh-hum ~ uh-hum hum ~"

Everyone was attracted to him, but they didn't expect that what she hummed actually closed, the most stable audio in this noise.

Tennessee confidently pointed to the virtual frequency of the audio that appeared in space and said, "This is John Denver, this is 'Country Road Take Me Home'!" ”

I have to say that although Tennessee is very fat and a little old, he has a chic feeling, especially when he smiles confidently, it has a very strong appeal.

Several women present were amused by her words, which can be regarded as a feeling of being obviously ugly, but giving people a very handsome feeling.

It seems that everything really exists by temperament.

Captain No. 2 Ou Lang was very strict, and still asked unacceptably: "Are you sure it's not a joke?" ”

Tennessee replied with a serious but cynical answer: "I never joke about John Denver!" ”

"This audio actually has an address."

Confirming that it was an audio that must have come from an Earth colonist, the android immediately said, "Mom, look up the address of this audio." ”

The android quickly manipulated his hand as he spoke, and projected the address of the operand on the big screen.

The shipborne intelligence system "Mom" replied: "Checking!" ”

At the same time, the virtual image of the audio disappears, and a three-dimensional rectangular image appears in front of you, with numerous dotted lines representing galaxies, apparently projections of a large area.

As soon as this golden virtual frame appeared, the voice of "Mom" came again: "The source of the signal is located!" ”

Everyone looked towards the public screen area and saw that it showed the exact location of the signal source.

"Mom" explained: "The signal comes from sector 87, right ascension is 47.8 degrees, and according to our current azimuth, it is 24.3 degrees below our current position. ”

The picture of fair delivery has been changing, eventually zooming in to reveal a galaxy that resembles a solar galaxy.

Wang Yonghao, who has never had a sense of existence, took the initiative to lead the rhythm: "This seems to be a main-order galaxy, just like our solar system, although it looks older, very ancient, and there are only five planets." ”

And the final location of the signal source is on a planet, and everyone really sees the difference.

Wang Yonghao continued to lead the rhythm: "I'm afraid it's more than that, you continue to watch here!" ”

Wang Yonghao turned around and went to this fair operation area, in fact, he didn't know anything, but that's what the trick in the original movie plot said, he just robbed other people's lines.

And this is also the person who should run in this direction to operate now, Wang Yonghao doesn't know anything, and he won't operate at all, but this can't be difficult for him.

Because he can call the ship's intelligence system and ask this "old mother" to help him complete this series of operations: "The fourth planet is located in the habitable zone, which seems to meet our requirements very well. Let's take a look at this planet, and 'Mom' analyzes this planet. ”

"Alright, Captain Jacob, it's being checked!"

Without a pause, the voice of the shipboard intelligent system "Mom" amplified the planet and continued: "The unknown planet is habitable, with oceans and land on the surface, a gravity of 0.96, and it is very likely that there is an ecosphere. ”

After listening to this, Wang Yonghao said: "This planet is really very good, better than the best possibility we estimate of the Omega Six star." ”

Wang Yonghao's nominal wife asked: "Why didn't we find out before, we scanned the entire sector?" ”

But the second captain of the ship, O'Lang, asked the black crew on the side: "Ricks, how far is that from us?" ”

"It's not far," Ricks replied, "and a few of those lines will probably take a few weeks, and we won't even need to re-enter the hibernation pod at all." ”

This discovery was a complete surprise to everyone, they were originally going to colonize Omega Six, but it would take more than seven years!

Captain O'Lang asked the android, "How long will it take to get to Omega Six?" ”

Wang Yonghao still remembers the plot in the movie, and he directly said: "To get to the current position, we still need to fly for seven years and four months." ”

Falina couldn't help but sigh: "That's really going to be flying for a long time!" ”

Wang Yonghao looked back at everyone and said to them: "The most important duty of the captain of this trip is to protect the safety of the 2,000 colonists on board, and finally reach the colonial planet on the premise of safety." ”

Everyone waited for him to continue, for they generally guessed what he was going to say.

Wang Yonghao looked at the 15 crew members present, including him, and said: "Now that there is obviously a more suitable target planet, we need to go and observe it closely, does anyone have any differences?" ”

Wang Yonghao is not the acting captain Ou Lang in the original plot, his prestige among these crew members is unquestionable, not to mention that what he said is right.

After waiting for a long time, no one raised objections, Wang Yonghao clapped his hands and said to everyone: "Then let's get busy, let's rush to that planet as soon as possible to make sure that he is indeed better than Omega Six." In that case, our journey will be completely over, and we can enter the colonial era. ”

Everyone dispersed, each busy with their own business, recharging the ship and preparing for the next few weeks of speed.

Three weeks later, the spacecraft finally arrived in the target galaxy and approached this magnificent planet.

Ricks and Falina are figuring out if there's something meaningful in the feedback signal.

But Wang Yonghao's eyes became different, he stood on the fence of the bridge, and said to the planet in front of him in his heart: "Alien, I'm here!" Hello David! ”
