The Explorer spun the dock that had begun to move away from the center of low Earth orbit and began to make its slow progress towards Jupiter. The Explorer cannot accelerate in the interior of the solar system, and the intricacies of the solar system do not have the ability to fly at high speeds, so after the analysis of many physicists, the use of the gravitational slingshot effect to start leaving the solar system has become the best choice.

The rotating capsule made everyone feel uncomfortable, and the mission of the Explorer dictated that it could not be designed and constructed like a normal commercial spaceship, and for many people it would take a while to get used to the rotational motion that could accompany them for a long time.

Looking out of the porthole of the Explorer, you can see beyond the blue earth, and you can see the moon from time to time. On the moon, there is a large part of the company that belongs to Qi Ming's family, and Qi Ming may not seem to have much feeling for the members of the family, because he doesn't care about not seeing his family at the expedition meeting. But many crew members saw the bright light on the moon, and the bright light formed the Chinese blessing: Come on Explorer, come on Qi Ming, Mom and Dad have always supported your decision!

There may be some parents who can't express their love in front of their children, twist or constantly blame their children for trivial things in life. But sometimes, everything parents do behind them may be for their children, for the sake of the kinship in the blood. Qi Ming may not know, and the crew of the Explorer may not know. A large part of the funds for the formation of the Explorer came from the support of Qi Ming's parents, otherwise how could Qi Ming have known in advance before this Dawn mission was announced?

Wakaya, Chunxi, and Qi Ming, in addition to their own tasks, they are also one of the first group of officers on duty. In addition to their regular patrols on the spacecraft, they also need to use the unmanned spacecraft aboard the Explorer to look for potential hazards that may arise, such as extraterrestrial visitors and unidentified aerial vehicles.

The first hibernation on the Explorer was not long, and when the Explorer was about to reach the Oort Cloud, they would wake up and carry out the first mission, which was to receive and repair the exploration spacecraft sent over, and the Wakaya team would draw a star map around Oort, and the resulting star map would be sent to Earth.

The Explorer ran smoothly for three months, and after accelerating through the gravitational slingshot effect, the crowd began to hibernate.

In the hibernation room of the Explorer, many crew members were in the medical examination room, they were doing physical examinations to determine whether their bodies could sleep for a long time, and the inspected crew members changed into hibernation clothes and got into the hibernation cabin. The hibernation chamber began to activate, and after a cloud of mist was spewed, the crew members in the hibernation chamber slowly fell asleep.

"That roast duck is so delicious, I'll have to eat one when I wake up."

"Qi Ming, you know how to eat, I wish you all roast duck in your dreams!"

"You can let him eat, when he wakes up, he doesn't have a strong appetite for at least half a year, and it will definitely be painful at that time."

"Next, Chun-hee, please come in. Please wait for the rest of the one. Outside the physical examination cabin, Chun-hee stood up and walked in.

"You're lying flat on the hospital bed, and we're going to prick you and take a sample of your blood. Take it easy. ”

Lying flat on the medical bed, Chun-hee simply tinkered with his clothes. The lid was closed on the medical bed, and then the voice of the machine came from inside: "Please put your right hand in the instrument in front of you, and we will collect blood first." ”

After the examination, the physical examination report came out, and the conclusion was given: pregnant, hibernation is prohibited.

"Doctor? What, I'm pregnant? ”

"That's right, at the moment, you're three months pregnant."

"How could I not have noticed it? Isn't it because the ship is spinning that I'm throwing up? ”

"At the moment, it seems to be a normal reaction, and we have decided to wait until you are ready to give birth before assessing whether you can continue to hibernate."

"Husband! Come in. ”

Chun-hee shouted outside the door, and Wakaya came in and saw the medical examination slip in Chun-hee's hand and fell into deep thought.

It wasn't just contemplation, and he didn't expect his hit rate to be so high. According to the rules on the Explorer, you can fall in love on board, but you need to take precautions. After all, all resources are carefully calculated, and even if there are enough resources, then there are problems at the traditional moral level of human society.

Imagine that one of the two newborn children began to hibernate after birth, while the other began to grow outside the hibernation warehouse. After hibernation, because the hibernation chamber reduces the speed of human metabolism and cell aging, the child in the hibernation chamber is almost the same as before his hibernation, while the other child has grown normally for many years. The psychological impact on a person in such a time span is self-evident.

"Chunxi, you have to go back to Earth, not only for the baby, but also for yourself."

"How is it possible to return to Earth? The spaceship has turned on the acceleration mode, decelerating and accelerating again, how long does this back and forth affect? If we delay the window of this time, and we can't use the gravitational slingshot, then we will be delayed for a long time to fly out of the solar system, do you think we can afford this time cost? ”

"You're right, rational analysis is. We definitely can't hibernate, let's apply for a postponement of hibernation, and then call Qi Ming together, I don't want him to be younger than me that day, and the three of us are not on the same timeline. ”

Ruoya walked out of the door, came to Qi Ming's side, and told Qi Ming about the current situation.

"What, you're going to be a father! Hahahaha, I'm going to be a grandfather! ”

"Qi Ming, don't hibernate, let's have more companions together. What do you think? It will only be more than a year, and you will not be delayed to conquer the sea of stars. ”

"That's necessary, I definitely agree, my grandson was born, and I, who is a grandfather, can't accompany me! Hahaha. ”

In this way, the original normal hibernation plan was broken, and the trio suddenly had a new mission goal, waiting for Chun-hee to give birth to a baby and accompany the baby to an age where it could hibernate.

This news surprised everyone, they were envious, and they could understand that if there was one more crew member, then their supplies would be a little bit on average for everyone. The captain was also very reasonable, and arranged for Wakaya and Chunxi to live in the largest room on the Explorer, and Qi Ming lived next door to them.

After a long time, the crew had gotten used to the rounding of the cabin all day, and Chun-hee's little belly was getting bigger and bigger. Until one day her amniotic water broke, and the Explorer began to accelerate to the third cosmic velocity with all its might, thanks to the interference of the gravitational pull of the solar system.

After a long period of influence from the gravitational slingshot and the sun's wide sail, the Explorer gradually broke through the third cosmic velocity, breaking through the orbital planes of the nine planets, and for the first time human beings really set foot in space, heading towards the Oort cloud, the edge of the solar system.
