The astronauts on the Enterprise all felt that they were in trouble during this period.

With the addition of aliens, their lives have become even more tormented.

If the population increases and they are VIPs, the food they usually eat will be reduced. Because these four VIPs also like green food, they take out all the food related to "green" for aliens to eat.

Originally, they were not very satisfied with freeze-dried vegetables, but since these freeze-dried vegetables, especially green-colored vegetables, were eaten by aliens, they could not get the supplement of relevant nutrients and trace elements, so they could only take pills.

Although freeze-dried vegetables don't taste as good as fresh vegetables, they are good on this lonely and empty earth fire long-distance space route. And no matter how bad it is, it is much better than taking pills directly.

In addition to eating and drinking, it is the problem of the spacecraft itself.

Since the Enterprise flew out of Mars orbit, they began to discuss with aliens about the upgrade and transformation of the spacecraft, but after discussing, the spacecraft began to have problems.

It turned out to be as they said, this is an "old spacecraft" that is carrying out the "last" long-distance mission.

There was a problem, and the discussion was escalated and stopped. They had to hurry up and repair the spaceship.

The aliens wanted to help, but they politely refused, and they also explained calmly: "Don't worry, it's all a small problem, it's all a while."

"Yes, it was the last mission after all. We took it to complete many long-distance missions and had deep feelings, so let's come in person."

"Let us accompany the old guy to the last journey smoothly."

As a result, the "old guy" has more and more problems. If a small problem is fixed, a big problem will immediately break out, until the maneuvering nozzles on the spacecraft are scrapped.

It doesn't matter if the maneuvering nozzle is scrapped. The spacecraft has several main engines. As long as the relationship between the single engine and the center of gravity of the spacecraft and the precise control of the intelligent control system can still achieve relatively accurate posture adjustments.

After all, Enterprise can land on Earth, and its main engines have adjustable thrust.

As a result, 40% of the main engine was scrapped during one posture adjustment, and the intelligent control chip in charge of thrust adjustment was also burned.

No matter how many parts are prepared on the spacecraft, it is impossible to bring several spare main engines.

In order to rush work, even the backup thrust adjustment intelligent control backup chip is not installed.

Anyway, when attitude adjustment in space, the maneuver nozzles are functioning, and it doesn’t matter if the thrust adjustment intelligent control chip is broken. At worst, it won’t land directly on the earth, but dock in orbit, and then use a manned spacecraft, a small space shuttle or a "space shuttle" to pick it up.

Anyway, in terms of acceleration and deceleration, the main thruster does not require fine thrust adjustment at all. As long as it can fly to the earth's orbit, they have many ways to bring people back to the ground.

After all, times have changed, human aerospace technology has made great progress and the number of available technical means has increased.

As a result, they couldn't reach the Earth's orbit, so they stopped now.

Mars is too far from the Earth, and humans' current technology cannot "enter the soul" at all. They must adjust their posture several times during flight. Only in this way can the route remain unchanged and then cut into the planetary orbit at the most accurate angle and speed.

Now they can't adjust their postures. They calculated the route and location. If they don't adjust their postures within ten hours, they will say goodbye to the earth.

Even if they were only a little off from the beginning, the space scale was quite large. The longer they flew, the bigger the route gap. In the end, they could not even see the earth, let alone passing by the earth.

Fortunately, their antennas are fine and they can communicate with the earth. They have no choice, so it depends on what hidden skills the engineers on the earth have not taken out.

For example, there is a "one-click repair" button on the Enterprise spacecraft?

Well, they were thinking too much. After the news was sent back, the ground command center quickly contacted them and asked them to give the most detailed report. After listening to it, everyone on the ground was stunned.

At first I heard that the power was damaged, and the engineers instantly thought of many solutions, but after listening to the detailed report, it could only be...

Sorry, I'm helpless, wait to die.jpg

Of course, engineers and technicians dare not say this sentence.

After all, this matter is of great importance. For the sake of alien affairs, Merecon was almost killed at the United Nations General Assembly.

Although it is not afraid of being thick-skinned, and financial hegemony can allow it to suck blood on many countries, and there are countries that rely on this to support it.

No matter how much they fight, if they don’t reach the final limit, they will never really betray them.

But if the aliens are burping for the reason of Mereken himself, it would be impossible to say.

Before the aliens arrived on Earth, everyone was somewhat restrained and still had the idea of ​​finally reaching cooperation. But if you say that aliens died in space on the Enterprise spacecraft, humans came into contact with alien civilizations, and the hope that technology was taken to fly was pinched...

As a working person, engineers and technicians dare not take this responsibility.

So they are all working hard to find solutions, one after another, one after another, constantly proposing "feasible" solutions they have come up with or found.

Whether it is useful or not, you have to keep yourself busy anyway.

The big man in charge of this area rushed to the command hall at the first time. They looked at the busy people and entered the conference room next to them, but their hearts became heavier and heavier.

If the problem is not big, it should be solved on their way to come, but after they stayed in the conference room for a lot of time, the problem was not only not solved, but the outside became busier and busier.

Someone will come in to report the specific situation and progress of the matter.

"The situation is very bad, and the Enterprise lost all the posture adjustment power and almost half of the propulsion power."

"Didn't the main engine lose all? Can you use them to adjust the posture?"

"It is basically impossible, because the remaining main engines are on the side, and the route correction cannot be completed at all. It will only become more and more biased as the repair is made. Moreover, the thrust of the main engine is too high, and it can deviate a lot if it is opened a little, which will make the spacecraft rotate and the more it adjusts, the more troublesome it will be."

"So is there any feasible solution for the command center?"

"There has not been found yet. The engineers on the scene are still working hard. We have connected engineers from other aerospace companies and they are also trying to figure out how to do it. But we... we have a very bad premonition. Maybe we can't... we can't get through this crisis."

"Damn it, if the Enterprise cannot come back, then the problem we have to face will be great. We have difficulty supporting the United Nations General Assembly. Tianxia has united other countries, which has put a lot of pressure on us. The allies who have finally repaired their relationship have also begun to wait and see. If aliens die in space..."

"Wait, aliens! aliens may have a way!"

"Yes, what about aliens? Is there any way for aliens?"

"No, there is no way. According to the report of the Enterprise, the aliens clearly wanted to help at the beginning, but after research by the ground command center, the Enterprise refused. They originally wanted to show our own technology, but later they were completely unable to repair it."
