The King of Huayu Science Fiction

Chapter 396
"I just slept for a while, and the situation seems less hopeless than yesterday."

Lei Jiayin rubbed her face, as if trying to keep herself from thinking about those hopeless things.

"Today I went through all the materials, and then came to quickly leave the cabin to check the external equipment." Lei Jiayin clasped his hands on his forehead, trying to calm himself down: "The surface mission was originally planned to last 31 Earth days. In a worst-case scenario, the habitat holds enough supplies for the entire crew to survive for 56 days.

On the sixth day, the catastrophe was imminent, so the remaining supplies were enough to feed 6 people for 50 days.

I am alone, that is enough to live for 300 days, and this is not counting saving.

The verdict: I still have a fair amount of time. "

The scene changed from Lei Jiayin recording the video log to him inspecting the supplies in the habitat, wearing a spacesuit with his hands on his abdomen, enduring the pain of the wound, and slowly pacing on Mars to the landing gear left by the launch rocket.

Lei Jiayin's lines seem to be voice-overs to make footnotes for his actions and tenacity, and it also allows every audience to deeply substitute their own emotions into it.

"...there are space suits in abundance, and each crew member has two space suits, one for lift-off and landing, and the other, which is bulkier and more reliable, for surface operations.

I had a hole in my space suit, they took five of them, but all the surface operations suits are here in perfect condition..."

"The launch rocket is gone, but its lower body is still here." Lei Jiayin bent down in pain and looked at the landing pad left behind by the rocket launch.

"There are also landing gear and fuel devices in the landing base..."

"The landing vehicle is lying on the ground, a piece of the cabin is broken, and the fairing of the parachute has been torn off. Maybe some parts are still valuable..."

"Both rovers are half-buried in the sand, but there is no serious problem." Lei Jiayin stood on the top of the huge Mars rover: "It makes sense, the pressure seal is intact, and the operating system will stop when a storm is sensed , it was designed to withstand this kind of blow, and it took a day and a half to dig them out."

"I lost contact with the climate station. They are set up one kilometer in each of the four directions of the habitat. The situation should be fine, but the signal of the habitat is too weak to reach even one kilometer..."

"The solar TV panels are all in the sand, and they are all in a state of failure, but as long as they are cleaned up, they can generate electricity at full efficiency. The [-]-square-meter battery panels and hydrogen fuel cells can store electricity, so there is no problem with electricity..."

"Oxygenator..."

"The water cycle..."

"Food, water, shelter are all there, I must now immediately start a food distribution plan so that the 300-day period can be extended to 400 days.

There is also a large bottle of vitamins in the medicine section, and the multivitamins in it are enough to last for several years, so I should not have any nutritional problems before starving to death..."

"There is an emergency supply of morphine in the medical area. It's great. The total dose is enough to kill me. I'm sure I won't starve to death..."

Lei Jiayin stood on the red Martian land, looking at the infinitely high and infinitely long gable towering in the distance, the sun smaller than the earth reflected a shadow of a person from behind, he was facing the audio recording in the mask Said softly but firmly:

"I've thought about how to live. It's not hopeless. About four years later, the crew of the Luna IV project will arrive on Mars in the Zhurong spacecraft. I can only believe that they will not cancel the entire project because of my death.

So now, my mission is very clear, find a way to restore communication with the earth, and... live until four years later!

I only have food for one year, how am I going to live to four years? "

Lei Jiayin turned around and looked at the sun hanging on the horizon, his body tremblingly laughed out loud, he gasped for breath, but his eyes became brighter and brighter, he looked at the sun in the early morning of the Martian day, but it seemed that he was looking through a lens. The audience in front of the big screen.

"I'm a botanist! Ha!
Why take a botanist to Mars?

It is to study the growth of plants under the gravity of Mars. It is necessary to collect enough Martian soil and bring it back to the spacecraft to cultivate plants.

No need to bring back the soil now...

I need to grow food rations on Mars for at least three years! "

Lei Jiayin opened her arms, as if embracing the sun, embracing the entire Mars: "Mars is about to be conquered by my profound knowledge!"

Although Wu Heng already had a premonition when Lei Jiayin said that he was a botanist, he still felt a mixture of shock and absurdity at this moment.

Exclamations, laughter and voices also sounded in the theater.

Grow vegetables on Mars?

"Interesting, really interesting." Ding Wei beside him was also shocked by the surprise released.

The trailer of "The Martian" is very simple, that is, the male protagonist played by Lei Jiayin was landed on Mars, and then the ground, the spacecraft contacted the male protagonist himself and was successfully rescued.

However, it did not disclose the information that there was still an interval of four years in between.

So when Lei Jiayin said that he was waiting for the rescue of the spaceship sent by the Yinghuosi Fire Detection Project four years later, Ding Wei was quite shocked.

From the previous plot, he thought that there would be rescue within a year. After all, the food is only enough for 400 days at most.

In this way, the food is definitely not enough. Even if a strict food rationing plan is implemented, it will be extended to 400 days at most, which is nearly 1500 days in four years.

But before he could think about how 400 days of food could last for four years, the choice of farming on Mars was presented to the audience by the actor.

To be honest, in Ding Wei's opinion, "Gravity" has fully interpreted "Space Robinson".

As the second part of the space trilogy, "The Martian" still uses the same routine, just moving the scene from space to Mars. Although it is still worth looking forward to, if you want to be comparable to "The Center of the Earth", it is best to have some novelty.

And "Mars" did not disappoint him, and the idea of ​​Mars farming is indeed quite novel.

After Lei Jiayin woke up from a coma the next day, he also imagined how the male protagonist should survive on Mars alone and wait for rescue.

Farming on Mars is obviously not in his vision.

It's not that Ding Wei didn't expect it, but that he didn't expect it, or that the audience in the theater didn't expect that there would be a four-year interval between rescues.

There is an unexpected surprise in growing vegetables on Mars, and it perfectly blends with the temperament of the movie.

Compared with the desperate, heavy and poetic background of the astronauts in a desperate situation in "Gravity", "Mars" has a strong geek temperament. Surviving Mars is a heavy proposition, but it also gives people A strong will and hardcore ease.

There is no poetic camera language like "The Center of the Earth", and there is no emphasis on literature and art. From the beginning to the present, it exudes an extremely rational atmosphere.

Even when Lei Jiayin staggered back into the habitat to perform surgery on himself, took out the slender antenna, and made the audience gasp, the hero's strong will and optimism were still very contagious.

He found himself in a desperate situation, but after a short period of decadence, the male protagonist regained his optimism. Afterwards, he took inventory of supplies and made video logs. There are cold humor and little wit.

Ding Weineng sensed Lei Jiayin's fear. At night, when the protagonist was wrapped in a blanket and trying to record the situation of supplies, the storm outside made the habitat shake and an alarm sounded.

When alone facing the lifeless land of Mars and Mount Olympus.

This kind of fear of being played by Lei Jiayin is restrained and very real.

And that's what makes his humor, optimism, and optimism about never giving up the struggle so contagious.

Amidst the sighs of Wu Heng, Ding Wei and others, Lei Jiayin on the screen chose potatoes as the first crop that humans planted on Mars.

"There is a complete toilet in the habitat cabin. After the stool is vacuum-dried and accumulated to a certain amount, it will be put into a sealed bag and discharged to the surface.

Never again! "

Lei Jiayin carried out an outboard activity and picked up all the poop bags.

"...Because the air is fully dried... vomit... There are no bacteria in these stools, but there are still complex proteins in them, which can be used as fertilizers. As long as water and some active bacteria are added, the fertility will immediately increase...

look!I found a big container, put some water in it, poured the dried manure into it, and then put... vomit, added my new manure, it's very smelly, but the more smelly the better, the more smelly it means the stronger the activity , indicating that the bacteria are busy...

Then you can mix the Martian soil with feces and you can grow potatoes like earth soil, but human waste contains pathogens that can infect other people, but it's not a problem for me because, well, the feces soil is in All pathogens in the world have only one source, and that is me. "

The audience watched the hero open up farmland on Mars in novelty and excitement.

"The total surface area of ​​the living cabin is 92 square meters. Assuming I can use it all, there are three test benches, each about two meters square, I will keep one, and the other two can be paved with soil, so it is 96 square meters...

There are also emergency triangular tents on the two Mars rovers, with an autonomous airlock system, connected to the habitat cabin, so there is still 20 square meters, so my cultivated land area has reached 116 square meters.

The next thing to consider is: How efficiently can potatoes be grown?

I can take care of each bean sprout, transplanting and burying it as soon as it breaks through the ground...

With these methods increasing production by about 860%, I should be able to produce... 1500 calories per day. Lei Jiayin walked back and forth in the cabin wearing a T-shirt, and quickly calculated the formula on the tablet: "But based on my weight and height, even if I am a little hungry, I need at least [-] calories a day to survive..."

"Fuck, this shit is the Martian survival log, right? Does it need such a hard core?" Wu Heng knew that "The Martian" was said to have hired aerospace experts as consultants, but the level of hard core was still beyond his imagination.

But the strange thing is that the male protagonist's strong hands-on ability, meticulous scientific thinking and meticulous plot did not make the audience feel any impatience, but watched it with gusto.

Not only does it have a strong sense of substitution, but every time the male protagonist draws a conclusion or solves a problem through scientific thinking, it can make the audience feel a subtle sense of refreshment.
