A story from a primitive tribe that not many people pay much attention to.

Because for Stellium and RDA, there's an important meeting going on in the middle of nowhere.

Pandora is a moon of the gas giant Polyphemus, located in the Alpha Cluster in the constellation Centauri, which is about five light-years away from the RDA's parent star and is their closest star system.

Even from the orbit, the range of flora on the surface indicates that Pandora is full of life.

Right next to the gas giants, in the black-and-red painted man-made battleships, the first space operation of the Stellar Empire began.

"ISV Startup Star is an interstellar transport spacecraft that is part of the entire circular supply chain for transporting supplies, equipment, personnel, concentrates, and data between the RDA home planet and the distant planet Pandora.

Since it can only operate in deep space, it will never land on the surface of the planet Pandora. If an ISV tries to enter the atmosphere, it will break and burn up due to atmospheric friction and high gravity.

So, it sent smaller, shuttle-like ships that landed on the surface of Pandora. ”

In the command room of the Gravity, Liu Zhiwei, the former commander-in-chief of the United Fleet of the Wandering Earth World, was looking at the three-dimensional image of the spacecraft projected on the screen, explaining the information observed in recent days to the captains of the fleet.

"There are now six ISVs of the same type that are docked between Pandora and the RDA home planet to transport cargo and crew.

It is judged that they all use several types of propulsion, including two material antimatter engines, a photon sail, and a planetary maneuvering engine.

If you look at the forebow part of the vista in the distance, the two red ones are the heat sink of the engine, and the front part is the engine part, and now we can see the details of the engine.

The Eiffel Tower-like structure between the two engines is a thermal shield. The structural engine part of the thermal shield is followed by the cargo area and the residential area......"

Everyone looked at the incomparably huge interstellar transport ship with its light sails unfurled, and had a clearer understanding of the technological strength of human civilization behind the RDA.

Being able to use positive and antimatter as the ship's power system is undoubtedly a powerful organization that can be compared to the Star Empire.

In the vastness of space, interstellar vehicles need enormous thrust to reach the speeds required for economical and relatively fast travel between and from stellar bodies.

The propulsion system based on matter antimatter is one of the more effective ones.

Antimatter fuel is contained in a magnetic field close to a perfect vacuum, in which it circulates in the form of high-density clusters of atoms cooled to near-zero temperatures.

When antimatter and matter are combined, they annihilate and release a huge amount of energy that must be guided by a super-strong magnetic field to form an exhaust plume.

The photons of these energies, although they have no mass, have momentum, and their ejections provide the thrust that propels the ship to accelerate.

Additional thrust can be obtained by injecting hydrogen atoms into the plasma before the hydrogen leaves the engine.

The plasma plume formed by positive and anti-matter, which is a million times brighter than the welded arc and is more than 30 kilometers long, is one of the most spectacular man-made landscapes.

The ISV Entrepreneurship Star on the projection screen has two material antimatter engines arranged symmetrically in a tractor configuration, behind which the main body of the ship is towed.

They were slightly inclined at an angle to the hull, several degrees to the longitudinal axis of the ship, so that their exhaust gas flows bypassed the structure of the hull.

Although this results in a slight decrease in thrust efficiency, this will prevent damage to the hull due to the fact that the angular deflection separates the hull from the thermal radiation of the plume.

The nine Pioneer-class battleships that were first trial-built by the Star Empire also used the technology of positive and antimatter annihilation as the main engine of the spaceship engine, and the nuclear fusion system as the auxiliary engine.

It can accelerate the spacecraft to 80 percent of the speed of light in five months.

However, unlike the Startup Star, it has an engine and hull made of very high-quality materials, pure gold, which can avoid the effects and damage caused by thermal radiation to the ship.

So in this way, the breakthrough in material technology alone has led to a stark contrast between RDA's Startup Star and Stellar's Pioneer class battleship.

Although the Venture Star is 1.5 kilometers long, it is designed to be used for long-distance transportation, and the hull is mainly composed of several parts such as heat dissipation plates, thermal shields, light sails, and cargo areas, and the hull for crew activities is very narrow.

The opposite is the Forerunner battleship of the Star Empire, which is designed to be used for short-range combat missions around the home planet.

It is a high-tonnage space battlefield combat ship equipped with mass accelerator large-caliber nuclear shells, red laser phase cannon attacks and heavy armor protection, and is a symbol of giant ship cannon doctrine in the interstellar age.

Of course, the emphasis on combat attributes comes at the cost of losing the possibility of long-range combat, and Pioneer-class battleships are now unable to travel around six light-years in space like transports like the Startup Star. And the Startup Star, as a transport ship, is unlikely to defeat the Stellar Battleship.

Shen Sen didn't have many doubts about the final outcome of the battle, but if it was possible, he hoped to be able to capture these Entrepreneurial Star Transport Ships completely.

Alpha Star Group, South Gate II.

There are three stars in this field, Alpha A, Alpha B, and Alpha C, and the gas giants orbit Alpha A.

RDA carriers in a state of low energy consumption are docking in the Pandora orbit.

"Warehouse No. 1 is full, open Warehouse No. 2!"

"Space Shuttle Preparation and Transport Aircraft ......"

In the control room of the spacecraft, the crew finally woke up from their dormant state and enjoyed a rare moment of wakefulness, even if it was busy work, they also felt a kind of living experience.

The start-up star is huge, it takes less than two seconds to get from the home planet to the moon, but at this speed, it still takes more than five years to get from the home planet to Pandora, and passengers sleep at low temperatures throughout the journey back and forth.

Because it is impossible to land on Pandora, when they approach Pandora, they will slowly slow down over the course of several months to reach their designated orbit and become a satellite. Passengers are then woken up from cryogenic hibernation and transferred to the space shuttle Valkyrie, which was launched from the hull of the ship, to Pandora.

Therefore, being able to wake up and go to work is not a burden but a rare enjoyment for them.

A blonde, blue-eyed human captain was watching the movement of the large robotic arm in the sun ahead, and boxes of cargo modules were transferred to the orbital conveyor and loaded into the spacecraft's cargo hold.

This is his second time as captain in Pandora to transport ore, and he expects to return in three months, in the meantime he hopes for all the best.

Complete the quest and get a big sum of money and then be eligible to survive on that damn home planet.

The ISV Startup Star is an RDA Capital Star-class spacecraft built by RDA's consortium of aerospace carriers. It uses cold superconductors, so a larger heat sink is required.

The ISV Bradbury, at his feet, is one of them, with a total of 12 ships transporting cargo and crew between Pandora and Earth.

ISV Startup Star is capable of carrying 350 tons of cargo at a time.

When traveling to the planet Pandora, the cargo consisted of three spare blueprints from the stereolithography factory, miniature components such as micro and nanoprocessors, and other circuit components that could not be manufactured in the factory.

The ship also carried two Valkyrie landing craft, two hundred frozen sleeping passengers, drugs and other drugs that could not be produced on site, Avatar and its amniotic fluid tanks.

Upon returning to their home planet, the ISV Startup Star mainly carried refined superconducting ores, as well as small items of the Na'vi tribe, which they sold to the wealthy at exorbitant prices in the form of collectibles.

Data containing the molecular structure of Pandora's organic compounds, which may have medical or other uses on Earth, are also sometimes transmitted. This data will be used to synthesize them for testing and eventual resale on the home planet.

The RDA saw the initial capital for the construction of the ship as a huge risk, but because they had the exclusive right to mine the superconducting ore, it paid off enormously, and Startstar has been in operation for at least seventy-seven years.

ISV Bradbur and Venture Star landed the first spacecraft in orbit in 2084. The ship may have made several trips to and from Pandora over the past few decades, including the 2148-2154 journey not long ago.

Almost every transport mission can bring tens of billions of fortunes to the RDA, and as a captain, he will also receive a total salary of close to five million. After this trip, it was enough for him to live a good life for the rest of his life.

"Damn Pandora, whoever wants to come, come along!"

The blonde captain aimed his middle finger at the three suns, venting his frustration during the boring journey.
