78 The Long Journey
On June 22, 2065, the military secretly held a simple sailing ceremony for the Expedition, after which the Expeditionary battleship accelerated its sailing, gradually increasing the altitude of its orbit.
On the 26th, the launch window is about to arrive, the battleship is separated from the earth, and the 48 most elite warriors are on a mission to save mankind and control the battleship to fly to Mars.
Group B and Group C still failed to get the chance to take off, but this training was extraordinary, and it was the most conspicuous record in everyone's files.
Many years later, most of them have become the backbone of the Space Force, but every time they mention an expedition to Mars, there is always something wrong with them.
For the members of the training team, not being able to fly to Mars with the expedition is the biggest regret in their lives.
On the expedition, everyone's mood has long changed from the agitation at the time of departure to a deep calm, or rather, how passionate the group was when they set off, and how lost and sad they were at the moment.
No one knows what the outcome will be, but everyone is determined to give it their all.
The battleship did depart smoothly, but the voyage was much more troublesome than expected.
According to the arrangement of the military, 48 people were divided into four groups, and in addition to the first group on combat readiness duty to stay awake, the other three groups entered the sleeping cabin for three days.
The reason for this is that the degree of automation of the battleship is extremely high, and 12 people can fully cope with the battle under normal circumstances.
Second, due to the immaturity of low-temperature sleep technology, the maximum sleep time of each person is only more than 70 hours, that is to say, after sleeping for three days, you must wake up, deal with personal problems, and take some time to exercise before you can fall asleep again.
To put it simply, it is to wake up three times and sleep one, until a month later, one group is dormant and the second group is on duty.
And so on until you reach Mars.
The three groups of people entered the cabin in three days, and they were divided into three days to wake up, so as not to be overcrowded all of a sudden, and suddenly deserted.
Ou Zhanpeng couldn't help but sigh, no wonder everyone wants to become an all-rounder, so they are waiting here!
The second is eating, there is nothing wrong with the group on duty, it is okay to eat normally, but it is not okay to sleep the three groups of people, the only thing they can eat is high-energy nutrients.
It's not that ordinary food can't be eaten, but because of low temperature sleep, it will lead to a decrease in gastrointestinal activity and poor digestion, and the food eaten has not had time to digest, and it has been spoiled in the stomach and intestines, which eventually leads to various health problems.
can be good, who wants to make a mess?
It was surprising that Ou Zhanpeng was appointed as the leader of the third group.
Ling Xiao's grades were also good, but because his personality was too jumpy, he was not assigned a management position.
This result made Ling Xiao very depressed, and he was still indignant for a while until he entered the sleep pod.
The group on duty is not idle, and every day they have to load simulation data as they did when they were at the base, and simulate drills with real ships.
Of course, this is a pure walk-through mode that does not involve the control system.
After all, there is gravity on the ground, but there is no on the battleship, and simply adapting to the weightless environment is only the first step, and how to adapt to the battle in the weightless environment is a new topic in front of everyone.
On July 14, Ou Zhanpeng woke up for the eighth time.
The first thing everyone does when they climb out of the sleeping pod is to wash their faces, brush their teeth, and clean up their personal hygiene.
Because just sleep is not freezing, and all physiological functions are only slowed down rather than suspended, so the oil on the head, the dander on the body, the breath in the mouth, everything is no different from waking up on a normal day.
It's just that in a weightless environment, taking care of personal hygiene is also a big trouble.
However, the space in the battleship is narrow, the air circulation is poor, if you do not pay attention to personal hygiene, all kinds of body odor will turn a good living person into a moving biobomb, so whether it is a space station or a space battleship, personal hygiene is not only a matter of hygiene, but also a problem related to the common living environment of all people.
Ling Xiao poked his fingers in his mouth while complaining vaguely: "When do we have to use artificial gravity?" ”
Ou Zhanpeng swallowed the toothpaste in his mouth: "Wait slowly, you can use it one day." ”
This is not nonsense, according to the authoritative information obtained before departure, the researchers at the Luoshipshan base found a set of equipment that is likely to create artificial gravity in the alien battleship.
As long as that thing is studied thoroughly, the day of artificial gravity will not be too far off.
"I hope so!" Ling Xiao grinned and swallowed the toothpaste, turned around and floated into the bathroom, clasped the mask on his face, and started the bathing routine, the water sprayed from the top of his head flowed all over his body under the air of the air.
Soon after, Ling Xiao was blown dry and floated out of the bathroom in a jumpsuit - a coverall, which is the standard garment in weightlessness, because it can avoid all the troubles and embarrassments caused by clothes flying.
Also to avoid trouble, many female soldiers cut their hair short, and it is not for nothing that they simply get bald haircuts.
If you see a beautiful figure in the battleship with an electric razor in her hand, shaving back and forth on her head, there is no doubt that it is a female soldier who is taking care of her newly grown hair.
To be honest, at the beginning, everyone was a little unaccustomed to it, but it was purely rare and strange, and when you get used to it, it's actually not bad.
As a result, more female soldiers shaved their heads, and those male soldiers with short hair didn't know how to get better, so they couldn't all have a group of big men with long flowing hair, right?
It's too late!
The hatch opened, and Luo Tu floated in: "Ling Xiao, Ou Fei!" ”
Ling Xiao Nunu mouthed: "The bathroom hasn't come out yet!" ”
Originally, he was the only one named Ou Fei, but it was strange to say, no matter when, the name was not as loud as the nickname, and the result was that few people knew Ou Zhanpeng, but Ou Fei was well known.
"Haven't come out yet?"
Lotu turned around and floated out: "Then you help me tell him that the survival pod of the alien species has begun to fly around Mars, and if nothing happens, it will land today." ”
The alien species is the name of the moon, and the entire training team, only Ou Zhanpeng and Ling Xiao are called that, and it has been a long time, and everyone has been slowly assimilated by the two of them.
After all, those extraterrestrial creatures are still two words whether they are human or not.
Ling Xiaoden was stunned: "Today? Such a coincidence? ”
Lotu smiled happily: "It's quite a coincidence, let you catch up!" ”
"Let's go, let's go!"
After taking care of it, he responded immediately, and hurried up to finish his work, and when Ou Zhanpeng floated out of the bathroom, everyone had already left, and only Ling Xiao was still waiting for him.
"What's going on?" Ou Zhanpeng asked.
"The aliens are landing." Ling Xiao said.
