Chapter 45: Landing

Cao Ge looked at the blue planet that was getting closer and closer in front of him.

"Murphy, start the spaceship landing process and wake up the landing advance team."

"Login program starts......

"The advance team wakes up and begins ......"

In the empty cockpit, Cao Ge carried his hands behind his back, facing the planet Tanis, which was tens of thousands of kilometers away, not knowing what he was thinking.

Cao Ge's instructions were quickly transmitted throughout the spacecraft through the spacecraft's local area network, and lights gradually lit up on a certain floor and in a certain cabin of the spacecraft.

The spaceship computer is following the wake-up process, carrying out a series of wake-up operations.

It is a large dormant chamber with more than a dozen dormant pods.

They are all the first advance teams that have been finalized to land on the planet at the beginning of the colonization plan, including all the people needed for early exploration.

There are atmosphericists, biologists, geologists............

Cao Ge turned back to the console, then sat in the helm seat and woke up Eric and the others on the keyboard.

Soon, about an hour later, Elysium was in a synchronous orbit with Tanis.

"Murphy, turn off the engine."

"The engine is off."

The giant ship's engine vents go out, and Murphy begins to control the vents and adjust the ship's attitude.

This was the beginning of the colonization program in earnest.

A day later.

Cao Ge's Hall of the Armed Forces.

"Eric, do you know the purpose of your mission?"

"Yes, Minister Walker, the purpose of this mission is to explore whether the planet Tanis is suitable for human habitation, and if there are extraterrestrial creatures."

"Good."

"This time, I have assigned you twenty people, including seven scientists, these scientists are important talents for our colony Tanis to rebuild civilization, and I hope you can guarantee their safety in this operation."

"I will, Minister." Eric replied seriously.

Cao Ge looked at Eric's serious eyes, and then nodded: "Go ahead." ”

Eric turned and walked away, leaving the Ministry of Armed Forces.

At this moment, on the deck of the spaceship Elysium, where the landing craft was parked, it was already brightly lit.

In the huge space, dozens of small spaceships are parked.

At the side of the spaceship closest to the protective shield, there were already more than a dozen people here to pack up their equipment and keep moving it into the spaceship.

There were soldiers, but also scientists on this mission.

At this time, Eric walked in with several soldiers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Minister Walker has conveyed orders to me, and Tanis's exploration mission can begin." Eric said, standing in front of them.

"Captain Eric, we're ready to go."

A blonde female officer on the side of the spaceship immediately replied when she saw Eric and his party coming.

Erec stood in front of them, glanced around, and nodded.

"Let's go."

……………………

Twenty people entered the ship, and after each person was in place, the pilot activated the ship, and the shield began to slowly rise.

Eric's spaceship drove into the take-off area through a movable deck.

The take-off area of the landing craft is a rectangular runway about 20 meters long, and the side to which it runs is the outermost protective shield.

After the spacecraft entered the take-off area, the protective shield on the rear side slowly fell.

"Bang dang!"

Once the shield is completely sealed, the control system in the take-off compartment begins to slowly extract air from the cabin.

About ten minutes later.

The air in the take-off compartment is completely withdrawn.

At this time, the outer protective shield slowly opened again, revealing the starry sky outside.

"Captain, it's time to take off."

"Well, let's take off." Eric nodded.

The rear engine port of the spaceship began to start slowly, and finally a blue flame was spewed out, and the spacecraft spewed out into the vast expanse of space.

After entering space, the rear engines gradually increased their thrust, and the four engines in the ship's belly also began to gradually start, controlling the spacecraft to fly towards Tanis's atmosphere.

About ten minutes later, the Landing spacecraft entered the outer atmosphere of the planet Tanis.

At this time, Cao Ge in the cockpit stood in front of the transparent bulkhead, watching the "Landing" gradually disappear from his field of vision with his hands behind his back.

The reason why Cao Ge has not left yet is because the one-year period has not yet arrived, and the crossing function of the savior system needs to be used, and it must be charged at least a year apart.

That is to say, if he wants to return to the world of the three-body problem, he will have to wait for nearly five months.

Therefore, in the past five months, he still has to shoulder the responsibility of the supreme human being, and try his best to protect the last 3,000 humans in this universe.

He didn't know why he was doing it, but his system was called the Savior System.

He thought it should have some meaning, if he sat back and watched the human race in this universe perish.

Maybe there will be some punishment that day, after all, the reward of one cubic meter has not been reminded before.

So, before you leave this world, it's better not to let yourself go too much.

Cao Ge gave Tanis one last look, then left the cockpit.

……………………

The people in the landing ship were shocked when they looked out the window at the pale blue atmosphere and the huge mountains that seemed to stretch out into space.

The landing craft descended rapidly in the atmosphere, and the air friction caused the underside of the landing craft to burn red.

Half an hour later, the landing craft passed through the upper atmosphere, reached the troposphere and came over a stretch of coast.

"Captain, shall we land directly?"

The advance team members on both sides of the landing craft looked at the surface through the transparent window behind them, and then looked at him and asked.

Eric met their gaze, turned his head to look out the window again, and finally said, "Don't worry, let's fly around the planet first." ”

Eric patted the driver's seat and reminded, "John, control the ship forward." ”

"Okay, Captain."

John then took the lever and steered the ship inland.

Beyond the coast, the ground of Tanis was a dull yellow.

Large tracts of land and rocks, with only a little green, and the area where they landed was devoid of vegetation, and as far as the eye could see, it was all barren flying sand.

The sky was also blue, without a single cloud.

The landing, heading inland, flew very fast, rubbing very loudly in the air.

There was only one thing in the entire sky, the Landing.

This airspace is terrifying.

About an hour later, after flying over a distance of more than a thousand kilometers, the landing finally saw the "forest", the blue forest.

Those plant-like things turned out to be blue.

The spaceship came to the sky above the blue vegetation, as if it had come to a blue ocean, and those bamboo-like plants were floating in the wind.

"Stop." Eric said suddenly.

"Oh my God, why are these plants blue?"

A young soldier on the landing ship looked out the window at the plants and said in surprise.

"We have an extremely low level of research on extraterrestrial organisms, and blue plants are not out of the question." Another scientist, who looked to be about fifty years old, pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and replied.

"Landing here, don't go into the forest." Eric said with a frown.

"Okay captain."

Given the order, John took control of the ship, flew back some distance, and landed about twenty meters away from the plant.
