I Have 48 Hours a Day

——Great Basin Desert, the largest desert in North America.

The total area exceeds 500,000 square kilometers, including most of Nevada, more than half of Utah, and a small part of Idaho, Oregon, California, and Wyoming.

When it comes to this desert, most people think of Las Vegas first.

In 1888, this was just a small town. In 1905, because of the discovery of gold mines, a large number of gold rushers flooded in. However, like other gold rush towns, Las Vegas soon became empty after the gold mine was emptied. The previous depression was restored. Its real rise was during the Great Depression in the United States. The state legislature passed a bill to legalize gambling, which transformed the desert city into a gambling city with nightclubs, hotels and casinos.

It's a pity that Zhang Heng didn't come to visit Las Vegas this time.

The plane landed at Area 51 Air Force Base. This base was newly built more than a decade ago. It is located on a dry, dry bed in Nevada, only 130 kilometers away from the flamboyant Las Vegas.

For decades after its establishment, the United States has denied its existence, but at the same time, in order to prevent curiosity from approaching, the Air Force bought another 9,000 acres of land and established it as an air traffic control area and an armed exclusion zone.

Area 51 was originally used to develop U-2 reconnaissance aircraft. After the development of U-2 reconnaissance aircraft was completed, other "black" projects also began to be implemented at this base. However, the United States did not recognize 51 until 2013. The existence of the district.

This is also a layer of mystery for Area 51. Many people believe in the so-called "green house" (which contains a frozen body of an alien. Past presidents of the United States will come here to visit it, and others vowed to see it. After being short, gray-headed creatures with large heads are moving nearby) are also here.

However, the three of Zhang Heng obviously did not have such eyesight. They were not greeted by strange aliens. They were just a person in charge of the air base. They looked very ordinary. After shaking hands with Zhang Heng and others, he said that the simulation environment had been set up. Ready for training.

The captain had a rare humane side. Considering that the sun had gone down, the training time was finally put into the morning tomorrow.

After having dinner, the three got the opportunity to move freely, but it was said that they could go freely. In fact, the places they could go to were actually limited, and basically they were staring wherever they went.

The person in charge also expressed their apologies for this, reiterating that the move was not aimed at them, but because the basic security alert was being implemented.

Zhang Heng understands people, but in this way it is impossible to do something in the base, at least until tomorrow morning they are safe.

This result is not unacceptable. For the three, this may also be the last sleep they fell asleep. After eating, Jia Lai took a deep look at Zhang Heng, nodded at the latter, and threw The next sentence, "See you tomorrow." After speaking, I was not in the mood to take a walk under full surveillance, and took the lead to return to my room.

Seeing Jale leaving, Bruno quickly got up, followed the fat man and walked out of his room, but ended up watching the door close in front of him, and almost hit his nose.

Bruno's look was a little embarrassing. The fat man made it clear that he didn't trust him, and didn't discuss the plan for tomorrow with him. It seemed that he was just going to use him as a tool, but he had to say that his judgment was indeed accurate.

Bruno wants to inquire about Jale's plan in advance is to see if there is any place to use it. It is best to kill the two together. Now that he has eaten behind closed doors, he can only return to his own. residence.

So there was only Zhang Heng in the cafeteria. Zhang Heng silently finished the last spoonful of cowpeas in front of him. At this time, the sky was darkened, the wind was rolling yellow sand, and the blood-red sunset fell under the dunes. Faced with the threat of survival, it is about to face the final race for life and death, and it is difficult to ignore such a magnificent sight.

"Majestic desolation, isn't it?" A strange voice said.

"Sorry?" Zhang Heng turned around and saw a middle-aged man dressed up as an engineer. It looked like he was a researcher in Area 51. I didn't know when he came behind him and smiled. Continuing the previous topic, I asked, "You are a NASA astronaut, I heard you are going to the moon."

"David." Zhang Heng introduced himself, put down the knife and fork in his hand, and stretched out his hand. "We are members of Apollo 11, but strictly speaking we are just candidates."

"Einstein." The middle-aged man shook hands with Zhang Heng, who raised his eyebrows. Zhang Heng has not seen photos of Einstein when he was young, but the middle-aged man said that Zhang Heng did find them There was something in the eyebrows.

But the latter then let go and smiled, "Just a joke, you know the nature of our work, we signed a confidentiality agreement before coming here ~ www.readwn.com ~ can not reveal our real name to outsiders, How about Mr. David, are you satisfied with us? "

"You look great."

"You too, as early as sixty years ago, no one thought that humans could fly in the sky with big iron birds, and no one ten years ago believed that humans could leave the earth and go to outer space. Even today, absolutely Most people still don't think humans can set foot on another celestial body. "

Einstein paused. "But it all happened. With the help of mathematical formulas, mechanical principles, and repeated experiments ... human beings have done things that seem impossible, and this is not modern. Is there a miracle in society, I don't want to be disrespectful to the one who led the Israelis to build their country, but I want to say that-technology is the greatest force in the world. "

Typical engineering student speech, but in a sense it is difficult to refute.

"I'm sorry for interrupting your meal. I just heard that NASA's astronauts are here, so I can't help but take a look, you know," the middle-aged man shrugged. "No one comes here, no matter what. Nice to meet you, Mr. David. "

"I'm also glad to meet you, Mr. Einstein."

"Well, don't delay your rest time. I wish you a good training in advance and successfully boarded Apollo 11 and I will listen to your moon landing broadcast."

The middle-aged person ended the brief conversation, holding the mug in his hand, and turned towards the door, at which time the sunset completely sunk into the horizon.

But when he came to the door, he stopped again and turned back, "Oh yeah, I almost forgot to say, I have a small gift for you. As a gift for our first meeting, just let it go In your room, I hope you like it. "
