Chapter 549: New Mission

The "Sky Patrol" of the orbital Star Port has always been in a busy state. As an interstellar port, it has become an irreplaceable surface and orbit transit station, and it is passing on goods from the three planets of the Earth, the Wandering Planet and the Moon every day.

Li Chuan and others arrived at Xinggang, and after some twists and turns, they successfully entered the "Wentian" spacecraft anchored on the No. 3 side arm.

At this time, Li Chuan, Sara and others entered the spacecraft, and as soon as the hatch door was closed, it began to fill in air.

【Battery Pressure: 95.253kpa】

The electronic synthesized sound rang out, and the atmospheric pressure in the cabin had entered the safety value. Li Chuan immediately took off his aerospace helmet, opened the inner cabin door and took everyone into the inner cabin.

American Sarah Sieger and Chinese Frenchman Julie Stacy entered the spacecraft for the first time, all of whom entered the spacecraft were stunned. At this time, everyone was on a straight and wide cabin path, with space suit racks on both sides.

"Don't float, you're standing on the ground and standing firm..." Li Chuan clapped his hands and said. In it, Eva Yelianna went to space for the first time, and couldn't help but experience the feeling of weightlessness. Sara and Julie, who said helplessly: "Girls, weightlessness will end soon. If you don't want your butt to fall, I suggest you still stand firm."

"Sorry, I lost my composure. I never dared to think about being lucky enough to come to space in person. And the first time I entered space, I actually had to participate in the great action of exploring A-Centaur." Sara Sieg said a little apologized, but she could still hear the excited side from her tone.

"It's all like this, except for the dozen facial paralysis who are taciturn and never take the initiative to communicate with others!" Liu Jin said with a smile.

"Face paralysis?" Julie said blankly. She looked around everyone and quickly focused on the dozens of artificial humans who did not say a word. They were indeed facial paralysis because they were robots wearing organic human skin masks, but the crew didn't know that they were artificial humans.

"Boss, I have never figured out why I have to lead a team of soldiers in an extraterrestrial exploration? I think it would be more helpful if I had to replace more than a dozen engineers..." Cock couldn't help but complain.

"Science fiction movies tell us a truth: when going out for adventures, you must have a sense of safety, otherwise you will think that it is like in the movie, which is terrible." Li Chuan said jokingly, then ticking the radio headset and saying, "Xiao Chu, activate the gravity vector."

"Understand!" Chu Siyuan's voice immediately came from the communicator. He had been on the spacecraft long ago and was responsible for testing the new artificial gravity module added to the spacecraft.

In one-third of the spacecraft, there is a sphere-shaped closed independent space. As the nuclear combustion chamber continues to produce nuclear fusion, high-level energy accelerates to this closed independent space.

Two spherical objects made of elemental matter with a diameter of 140 cm were suspended and rotated continuously at high speeds around the center of mass in the middle. This closed independent space was immediately filled with high-energy electromagnetic fields. Soon after, a strange gravitational resonance gradually formed, and a downward gravity vector with the spacecraft itself as the reference system was generated.

In the spacecraft, Li Chuan and others felt the existence of gravity and could no longer be suspended. A downward gravity vector continued to increase until it was consistent with the gravity on the earth's surface and finally stopped increasing and maintained this stable value.

"This... is incredible." Sarah Sieg's eyes were wide open, and Julie Stacy, who also entered space for the first time and entered the third generation of "Quanshi".

“Artificial gravity…”

On the other hand, Li Chuan, Liu Jin and others have already started to remove their spacesuits and tidy on the hangers on both sides of the passage. Li Chuan looked at the two new members and smiled: "The spaceship is very big and has enough space. Each of them has their own separate rooms. All daily necessities are very complete. There is also a plant cultivation room that can eat fresh vegetables for a long time. Also, this time we carried 300 tons of pure water that can be directly cited. So, don't do dangerous hydrogen and oxygen water on the spaceship. It will be fun to blow the ship into a mess. The key is that you all walk more than 6 billion yuan, and special living bodies are very expensive."

Eva Ye Lianna, who was standing aside, couldn't help but blush with embarrassment, but the hull would not be dismembered if the spacecraft exploded. After all, the ship was made of keel and coating made of Zhongjing alloy material.

"This time I spent a year upgrading the spacecraft. The original living area was already a survival system... In short, this time, the internal changes of the spacecraft were greatly improved. Everyone was familiar with each other. After 45 minutes, they all came to the bridge to meet up. That's it."

The current "Wentian" spacecraft no longer acts as a transport ship, which means that the space on the ship can be used in basic living facilities, and has received an epic upgrade. The addition of a survival system means that the spacecraft is a complete closed-loop ecological space. 40% of the space inside the spacecraft is a living area, an entertainment area is also added, and there is a basketball court inside.

After this major upgrade, it has become more people-oriented.

However, the "Wentian" is not a travel amusement boat, but a scientific research boat. It is comparable to the physique, scientific equipment and laboratory of a standard modern warship.

Ten minutes later, the main cabin door of the rear of the "Wentian" spacecraft opened, and two 46-ton shuttles were sent into the cabin, one was universal and the other was emergency backup. The shuttle also carried a wheeled locomotive inside.

After almost two hours of trouble, I finally completed all the supplies, and I had everything I should have and what I shouldn't have.

The six super-large anchors connecting the spacecraft fell off one after another and slowly entered the sidearm. The spacecraft's No. 1 and No. 2 working-free nuclear power main engines adjust the angle of the vector nozzle. The pilot controls the spacecraft to slowly turn the ship away from the ring-orbit Star Harbor, and then steadily accelerates towards the high-altitude orbit.

On the bridge, all the crew members were already here, and Li Chuan immediately spoke, "Xiao Chu, let me report to you the details of this exploration mission..."

Everyone was focused on waiting for the following text, and Chu Siyuan nodded and immediately came to the console and called out the projected image. A three-body galaxy image appeared in front of everyone. However, strictly speaking, the projected image is not a three-body galaxy system, it can only be said to be a three-body galaxy system.

"Our mission location this time is the second star system of the South Gate, and another name is the Centaurus Galaxy." After Chu Siyuan called out the projected image, he introduced to everyone: "This is the closest star system to our solar system, only 4.37 light years, about 277,600 astronomical units. Among them, the red dwarf, namely Proxima Centauri, is only about 4.24 light years from Earth, and is the closest star to us."

Everyone stared at the celestial system in the projected image and listened silently, while Chu Siyuan continued: "Centaur A is very different from our solar system. It is a relatively strange tri-star system. But strictly speaking, it is not a tri-body star system. The motion of this galaxy is that the two large-mass stars a and b of Centaur form a pair of relatively close binary star systems."

"Their orbital radius around each other is about 80 astronomical units, but the eccentricity reaches about 0.5. Centauri A-Centauri, that is, Proxima C, orbiting the centroid of the binary star system in a relatively distant orbit. Simply put, the two stars A-Centauri A-Centauri are rotating with each other, while Proxima Centauri orbits around these two stars at a longer distance, with a distance of about 0.211 light years, and a revolution takes about 500,000 years."

"So strictly speaking, this is not a three-body system, but a binary star system. Proxima Centauri is too small as a red dwarf, only one-eighth of the mass of the sun."

"Our scientific expedition mission this time is to go to Centauri to obtain further detailed data, because we are working hard to accelerate the creation of the 'Dyson Ball' to collect stellar energy, and the first choice is these three stars closest to us!"
