Chapter 466 Journey to Mars ([-])

At this time, the Sun Reacher is already approaching the Mars synchronous orbit in a rapid deceleration.

[Captain, the spaceship has braked and decelerated and reached the specified speed. ] Reported by Masashi Kishimoto.

［Preparing for Mars Synchronous Orbit. ] Fang Tianbo ordered.

[Report, we have connected to the Mars satellite communication system. ] Reported by Yurihui.

That's right, Mars has a satellite communication system of the Human Innovation Alliance. These satellites were launched by Dongtang and the Galactic Federation before. There are a total of 11 large communication satellites, and their orbits are also in the Mars synchronous orbit area.

The synchronous orbit of Mars is about 17031.568 kilometers, but Mars has two irregular natural satellites, Phobos and Deimos.

Phobos (Phobos Forbos) is potato-shaped, orbiting Mars three times a day, and the average distance from Mars is about 3 kilometers.It is the larger and closer of Mars' two moons.

The distance between Phobos and Mars is also the shortest among all satellites in the solar system and their host star, only about 6000 kilometers from the surface of Mars.

Deimos (Deimos) is the smallest satellite of Mars, with an average radius of 6.2 km and an escape velocity of 5.6 m/s (20 km/h). It is the smaller and outer known satellite of Mars.

The distance between Deimos and Mars is 23460 kilometers, orbiting Mars in a period of 30.3 hours, and the orbital speed is 1.35 kilometers per second.

That is to say, the Mars synchronous orbit is between Phobos and Deimos. Although Phobos and Deimos are not large in size and mass, disturbances may still occur in the Mars synchronous orbit.

[Successfully entered orbit, has been successfully captured by the gravity of Mars, and is undergoing a synchronous orbit orbit correction operation] Kishimoto Masashihui reported.

[Yuri reported to Blue Star that we have successfully reached Mars synchronous orbit. ] Fang Tianbo hastily instructed Yuri.

Because they are in the anti-gr fluid, they all type and communicate quickly through the brain control system.

[receive. ] Yuri quickly packaged the relevant information about the successful arrival of the Sun Reacher to Mars and sent it back to Blue Star.

However, due to the distance problem, the distance between Sun Chaser and Blue Star is 1.41 million kilometers at this time, and with the rotation of Mars, it is moving away from Blue Star.

It takes about 470 seconds for the spacecraft’s communication system to send the communication waves back to Blue Star before it can reach Blue Star from Sun Chaser, and it takes about this time for Blue Star to send it to Sun Chaser, which means that it takes 16 seconds at the fastest to go back and forth. minutes or so.

In about 8 minutes, the new Chang'an Space Station received the communication wave from the Sun.

"Report, Sun Chaser has safely reached the Mars synchronous orbit."

Clap, clap... Wang Tiejun and Li Zhongting applauded happily, and the others were also very excited. This flight is the first time for human beings to officially step into a planet other than the blue star. Sublight ships provide an invaluable experience.

After a while, Li Zhongting calmly ordered: "Respond to the Sun, let them carry out the mission according to the established, and finally wish them a smooth return to Blue Star."

"Yes." The staff quickly entered the information, and replied to the communication wave to the Sun, which was 1.41 million kilometers away.

at the same time.

Kaohsiung Space Center, Bazhong Space Center, Tanegashima Space Center, Moscow Space Center, Wenchang Space Center and other ground space centers of the Human Innovation Alliance have also received the good news that Chaser Sun has successfully entered Mars synchronous orbit.

"Victory belongs to humans!"

"Success."

"Hahaha……"

"We have officially become a cosmic civilization."

"..."

Some people were ecstatic, some cried with joy, some hugged each other or laughed, and the depression brought by the triangular civilization was washed away for a while.

Soon the Ministry of Aeronautics and Astronautics disclosed relevant information to the society and issued an announcement.

[Warmly celebrate the successful test of the alliance's first sub-light-speed spacecraft, Chaser Sun, and also warmly celebrate Sun Chaser's manned arrival to Mars synchronous orbit...]
As soon as the break came out, the whole world exploded.

The entire network forum, the largest social forum of the Human Innovation Alliance, suddenly boiled like boiling water.

"Sub-light speed ship???(⊙x⊙;)"——a shocking blow

"The cruising speed of Chaser Sun can reach 4.14 kilometers per second, which is equivalent to 13.8% of the speed of light. It only takes two or three hours to go back and forth to Mars, my God!" ——Shocked UC
"As soon as you debut, you are at the peak, Mobike boss." ——NASA Don’t Cry
"Mars! Sawadhika!" - User in Bangkok

"Immigration to Mars is just around the corner, and the stars and the sea are not dreams." ——Dong Li Wants to Suck

"It's so beautiful, I'm proud of the Human Reformation Alliance." - Pandaren
"I (ω).o suspects that the alliance has obtained alien technology" - Unknown

"@不明觉力, open the door to deliver the courier." ——Temporary worker of Shenspear Bureau

"God-like Alliance Scientists." - Hokkaido Onsen
"It feels like NASA and the Western Space Agency are no longer in love." - North Sea Shepherd
"It's too hot, come on!" ——Yangcheng user

"Long live the Alliance! Long live Lucia!" - Polar Bear
"@polarbear, so it's dear Davari, you're from Tyumen?" - Pandaren
……

Rice Home, Facebook.

"@NASA, everyone else has built a sub-light speed ship, and now you can't even get out of the atmosphere of the blue star?" - Cowboy is busy

"The evil alliance is going to take over Mars. If we don't act, we may not even have a chance on an asteroid." - Black Watermelon

"Wow! What a cool (▽) spaceship!" - Star Trek

"Envy, envy, hate! I have already bought a tourist visa for a three-day trip to the moon." -Bob with his own luck
"@带自己她的贝博，欢色! You're capitalizing on the enemy." - Redneck Baroque

"@红尾霍洛克, the cow dung in Texas will spray manure all over his mouth." Bob with his own luck
"Protest! Protest! Oppose the abolition of overtime restrictions. You goddamn capitalists are going backwards by asking workers to work 10 hours a day and canceling Saturdays." - Paradise is not beautiful

Obviously, the social contradictions of Mili's family are constantly accumulating and deepening, and Mili's family, which has lost its position as the world leader, is now in dire straits, with internal conflicts and external environment constantly deteriorating.

……

NASA, Houston Space Center.

"Madam Congressman, there is nothing we can do now, your request is too overwhelming." John Burns said in a difficult way.

Alice, a member of the Federal Assembly, asked with an ugly face: "The Federal Assembly has invested 1500 billion U.S. dollars this year, plus the original 800 billion U.S. dollars. Tell me now, where do you use the money?"

"Ms. Alice, we are not alchemists or magicians. Scientific research projects cannot be successful all at once. We need time." Dr. Archimedes retorted.

"Member, it's not that we don't work hard, but that inflation is too fast." John Burns reminded.

Alice also fell silent immediately. The U.S. dollar has depreciated very much this year. Now the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar is only about 60% to 70% of what it used to be, while the federal government’s fiscal revenue is declining. Now even the Federal Reserve is printing money like crazy. It doesn't help, after all, the U.S. oil system is on the verge of collapse, and international trade has been replaced by Mars coins.

"We can provide up to 500 billion US dollars in special funds. You must give the public an explanation, otherwise you will know the consequences." Alice said a little crazy.

"We guarantee that the space station will be rebuilt in 2021, and the moon base will be established in 2025..."

"It's too slow. The moon base must be established in 2022. This is the deadline." After speaking, Alice turned and left.

John Burns, Dr. Archimedes and others looked at each other.
