From black technology to super engineering

Space City, the command center of the "Star Asking Project".

Every aerospace project has its mission code and name. This time, the Star Asker went through the wormhole to the blue star, and the code name is naturally "Star Asker Project".

Ye Ming stood behind the podium and once again acted as the commander-in-chief of the crossing plan.

It's just that at this time, he is not in command, but everyone is looking at the screen on the big screen that is transmitted instantly from the Asterisk. Seventeen heads of various departments and teams spoke solemnly in front of the camera.

"...during long space voyages, we have seen our blue home shrink in size until it disappears into the night sky."

"With the passage of time, our longing for our homeland has also multiplied day by day. This is an innate sensibility of human beings that cannot be eliminated even under long-distance communication."

"But we have never regretted it, because we know that Star Ask is not an individual's destiny and responsibility, but the entire Star Ask project, the entire country, and the yearning and expectation of all mankind."

"From ancient times to the present, the dream that mankind has longed for will be realized at this moment..."

...

Ye Ming supported the podium with both hands, the expression on his face was as usual, even his eyes were calm - or in other words, his whole body exuded a strong confidence.

This confidence involuntarily comforted everyone in the command center.

After hearing Captain Zheng finished reading the manuscript, Ye Ming breathed out without leaving a trace, and his pupils shrank a little - but no one noticed.

It stands to reason that the mission has not been successful, so this kind of announcement to the whole society and all human beings should not be issued.

but……

Everyone knows that the dangerous consequences of crossing the wormhole this time are absolutely unimaginable and unacceptable.

According to the current level of human spaceflight, if there is a danger in the solar system, as long as there is no problem with the life support module, then the rescue can definitely be completed-at least there is a possibility of trying.

Even if you take a step back, if something goes wrong in space, as long as the spaceship doesn't explode completely, you can always get something back.

But the trip to the blue star is different.

Once danger occurs, especially when danger occurs when crossing the wormhole, then everything will be powerless.

In addition... Asking the asterisk to go here is to go towards danger.

Therefore, there is a reason for asking the asterisk, and it is also necessary to leave the most precious declaration to mankind—that will be the hope and confidence that mankind will not lose courage if danger occurs.

All the leaders of Yaoyue stood together and took a perfect group photo.

Afterwards, Captain Zheng regained his serious expression: "Xichang, this is the Asterisk, ready to carry out the crossing mission."

"Xichang received it and allowed it to be executed."

"receive."

Captain Zheng gave an order, and the No. 18 people in the command cabin immediately dispersed and began to return to their seats.

...

The cafe on the fifth floor of the Brain-Computer Center.

The coffee shop, which had few people ten minutes ago, was already overcrowded.

Everyone was chatting quietly while watching the TV screen.

On the screen, a crew member from Russia is playing a short "summary" in his native language - since it is broadcast live to the whole world, every crew member of the Asterisk will show up.

"Xiaoqi." Chen Yun looked away from the screen, and she lightly touched the paint and ink.

Qi and Mo turned their heads: "Sister Yun, what's the matter?"

"Did Lao Zhou and the others not show up?"

"Hmm... I don't know, it should be possible." Qi Yumo saw the worry that could not be hidden in Chen Yun's eyes, and knew what the other party was worried about.

Asterisk has gone to the earth for billions of kilometers, and the one-way journey is as long as four months. It is the farthest place that human beings have reached so far.

Such a distance, even with face-to-face conversations every day with ultra-distance communication, cannot offset the fear of separation from the bottom of human beings.

Chen Yun came here so early today, obviously worried about Zhou Xiangnan.

"Then..." Chen Yun hesitated to speak, and took a deep breath after a while: "Can you adjust the command module screen of the Asterisk?"

"Eh..." Qi and Mo were suddenly embarrassed.

As an executive of Jizhi Technology and one of the persons in charge of Aita's authority, she must be able to adjust the screen, but... she is not authorized.

"I just want to see how Lao Zhou and Mushroom are doing." Seeing this, Chen Yun immediately lowered his voice and said, "I'm wearing virtual glasses, can you share them?"

Qi Yumo frowned slightly, and then she saw that everyone present was looking at her, she pursed her lips, gestured to everyone to wait, then got up and walked to the door.

She took out her mobile phone as she walked, but stopped when she was about to dial.

——If the guess is not bad, Ye Ming should be communicating with the command center now, preparing to cross the wormhole with the best posture.

He will definitely not be able to answer the call at this time, and he will definitely not be able to make a call.

After thinking about it, she changed the number and dialed Director Niu directly.

After a while, the call was connected.

Director Niu authorized her to access the video in the command cabin in real time without any consideration.

...

Ask the asterisk command module.

Mo Gu was sitting in the second seat, and his seat belt was fastened all over his body.

She stared intently at the big screen ahead, and the hull camera faithfully relayed back what it saw.

On the screen, the large high-dimensional space membrane generators modified by the six Asterisks have all turned on their lights. From a distance, it looks like a tunnel entrance full of signs.

Ye Ming's voice continued to ring.

"The distance from proofreading is three hundred kilometers."

"Proofreading completed, three hundred kilometers."

"Angle calibration."

"The angle has been calibrated, and the deviation is 15 degrees. It will be adjusted in 60 seconds."

"Main engine status check."

"The main engine has been shut down."

"Energy storage system check."

"98% of the energy storage system meets the start-up energy of high-dimensional space membranes."

During the communication, Ye Ming's voice paused slightly: "Captain Zheng, the energy storage system is the top priority, especially the temperature must be paid attention to."

"Please rest assured that there are personnel staying behind, everything is in normal condition and liquid nitrogen is ready."

"Um... Aita."

Aita's voice sounded in the command cabin: "I am here."

"Execute the crossing plan."

"Received, start time synchronization..."

As Aita's voice fell, oxygen masks began to drop from the top of each seat in the command cabin.

Mo Gu put on the mask, listened to the instructions from his ears, began to slowly lie down on the seat that had been put down, and then closed his eyes.

Time passed by every minute and every second.

When she heard the shipboard computer start counting down, she immediately opened her eyes and looked at the big screen from the corner of her eyes.

"5"

"4"

"3"

"2"

"1……"

The last sound seemed to be extremely long, but also seemed to be fleeting.

On the monitor, a light flashed suddenly, and a bright starry sky appeared in front of my eyes.
