Chapter 809 Landing on Mars

"...For this landing event, we will be grouped according to the previous grouping, and I will lead some people down."

"Vice-captain Xu Qingfeng, you and the rest of the team members stay on the spaceship and continue to conduct space experiments, and as the mother ship, as our eyes and ears in space, report the surrounding environment to us, how do you feel?"

Musk asked Xu Qingfeng with a smile.

"Of course, no problem. This is a task we have determined long ago. Just leave the early warning work to us." Xu Qingfeng said seriously.

"That's good, that's all right."

With that said, Musk stretched out his hand and turned a three-dimensional projection of a virtual Mars with a diameter of one meter on the console, pointed to one of the flashing red dots and said, "Our landing point is here, and I will trouble you when the time comes." Pay attention to everything within a hundred kilometers around us."

"No problem," Xu Qingfeng looked at the virtual projection of Mars on the console, and then stretched his hands to enlarge the image, "At that time, if the intelligent system finds that a dangerous situation has occurred in the area, it will issue a warning, and then the virtual projection will It will definitely show up."

"After receiving the notification, the staff on duty will send you relevant reminders, and then you will make a decision."

The meeting was over. As the captain and vice-captain, Musk and Xu Qingfeng talked about some details, and talked about some cooperation issues in the future.

Only then did they have time to sigh, these operable holographic projections are easy to use, and seeing things is so intuitive and three-dimensional.

A long time ago, Arclight Aerospace launched some probes to the orbit of Mars and on the surface of Mars. Through various cameras, detectors, etc., it "touched" the situation on Mars clearly.

Then, using the group's advanced computer technology, this hologram of Mars with an initial diameter of one meter was made and placed in the spacecraft's database.

Before, when they learned about the situation of the spacecraft, they knew that they could use holograms, and even used it many times during the flight of the spacecraft, as they were familiar with the spacecraft system.

After Arclight Group was established, not many deep space probes were launched into space, because after all, it is just a private company, and profit is the main thing.

As for exploring the secrets of the universe, it can only be done incidentally when there is profit.

Therefore, the Arclight Group will only conduct detailed detection of the target when it is going to carry out some projects, which makes the holographic operation platform have a holographic model of the solar system, but only the holograms of the Earth-Moon system and Mars are the most detailed, and other celestial bodies use They are all public information, and there is a general model of the whole series.

At that time, it was amazing to watch, but it was far from the magical feeling of coming to Mars, seeing the real body of Mars, and then using the Mars holographic projection to operate and explain.

Outside the spacecraft is Mars, and in front of you is another Mars, and due to the short distance, the performance of the two "Mars" is almost synchronous.

At most, the level of detail of the "Mars" in front of you will be a bit worse, after all, it is not a real thing.

The meeting was over, the members also finished their meals, and even slept for a few hours, and the spacecraft also made many laps in the orbit of Mars.

Time to land on Mars.

Musk asked the landing team, "Are you going to eat on the spacecraft, or on Mars?"

"Mars!"

The landing crew responded loudly.

"Our first meal on Mars was very simple. There were no freshly cooked steaks or fried dishes. If you think about it, tell me, where do you want to eat?" Musk asked again with a smile.

"Mars!"

The landing crew still shouted the same answer.

After listening to the unanimous words of the landing team members, those who were going to stay on the spaceship for space experiments smiled at one of the landing team members, "Haha, Ye Tong, it seems that they think your cooking is not tasty, I don’t want to eat your cooking anymore!”

The team member named Ye Tong shrugged indifferently and said, "Probably, then it seems that I will only cook for myself in the future, and it will be easier."

"Ah, no, dear Ye, I was wrong, I like your dishes very much!"

"Ye Tong, don't take it seriously, I will depend on you to live in the future."

"Brother Ye, please hug your thigh, don't abandon me!"

Ye Tong was so indifferent, the team members panicked and begged for mercy in a funny way.

Seeing the tension-free atmosphere, Musk nodded in satisfaction, then greeted Xu Qingfeng, and led the landing team to the cargo shuttle, which is the "Vulture" after the power system has been modified. Class Aerospace Transport Aircraft.

In order to expand the cargo capacity, the cockpit of the current "Eagle" class aerospace aircraft is already very small, and can only accommodate two people, but correspondingly, the cargo compartment has become larger, just like the transport plane on the earth, and some people can sit beside it. people, and then place goods in the middle.

After confirming that everyone was ready, the two shuttles carrying the landing team and cargo left the "Yuanvoyage" and flew towards Mars.

The density of the atmosphere on Mars is only one percent of that of the Earth, so there is not much friction when passing through it.

There were no portholes in the cargo cabin, so the landing crew had no idea how spectacular the place they were flying over was.

Seen from the sky, two white shuttles flying in the red world are a rare sight in this world.

The thin atmosphere of Mars can provide extremely limited lift, and it can't support the heavy body of the shuttle at all. Even their aerodynamic layout is quite good, so the main power of the shuttle still comes from the jet engine that can rotate back and forth.

They flew together over canyons, hills, mountains, and craters, and flew towards their destinations in an unsteady manner, until the navigation computer showed that they had reached their destinations, then they sprayed hot flames downwards, and landed with the force of recoil .

It was the original flat landing site, but it was a mess destroyed by the engine nozzles. This is the disadvantage of not having a dedicated airport.

Although there are no portholes in the cabin, they still felt the obvious shaking. This is different from the shaking when encountering turbulence in the air. This must be a successful landing.

"Are we on Mars?"

"Yeah, I didn't feel it at all. Is this a success?"

"It's a bit unfinished. We have achieved the dream of human beings so easily, and the sense of accomplishment is too little."

Just when they were sighing, Musk's laughter and cursing came from the communication channel, "Okay, girls and boys, don't sigh, we should get out of the cabin, you are here to land on Mars, not for an outing of."

"Check your spacesuit, is your helmet on? Is the oxygen switched to internal circulation? I don't want you to die on Mars as soon as you land on Mars."

"That way you'll be a celebrity, but you'll be the first person to die on Mars, and you'll be there in future astronaut training courses, just the opposite: Hey, you all remember this stupid idiot, he It was the first person to die on Mars, who was killed by his own stupidity!"

"Do you understand everything? If you don't want to die, let me check carefully."

"Understood, captain!" the team members shouted.

"That's good, let's go, the driver gets in the car and drags our car and our home out."

"Follow the car on foot, watch your feet, this car has a lot of tires."
