As a member of the scientific research team, Zhang Yuan was one of the first people to land on Europa.

He walked down the space elevator carefully and walked on the ice cap of Europa. In the dark sky, only a few flashed. These permanent ice layers have never melted since their appearance, and have a history of at least one billion years.

You can see the overwhelming Jupiter when you look up.

It is really overwhelming. Its size is about 23.5 times that of the Earth when it witnessed the moon. It can be seen from naked eyes that there are wood-like patterns on the surface of Jupiter.

Sometimes I can also witness the famous, dark red spots, like a huge eye, quietly watching them.

If someone is afraid of ghost stories, seeing this true blood moon may be scared to death.

Zhang Yuan took a few photos with interest.

The reason why the tidal locking side was chosen as the base is that the probability of this place being hit by meteorites is smaller.

Jupiter, a big guy, has cleared countless meteorites for planets in the solar system. With Jupiter as a shield, the probability of Earth suffering from meteorites is much smaller, providing a more favorable environment for the formation of life.

But Europa was not so lucky. Living here, the probability of being hit by meteorites was greatly increased.

The entire base is also equipped with the most powerful helium-3 nuclear bomb to resist the possible attack of meteorites. There is no way, who made Jupiter the most important nuclear fuel bank?

"Dear friends who have come from afar, welcome to the Europa Industrial Base. The most edge of human space deployment." A middle-aged man in a space suit stood at the gate of the base and greeted everyone with a smile.

Immediately afterwards, he shook hands with the captain.

Academician Ding turned around and said to Zhang Yuan: "Let's go, this alien base may be similar to our future deployment... but you need to have a good visit."

"I have a few old friends here who want to visit. Are you going with me or acting freely?"

Zhang Yuan thought for a while, "I also have an elder who wants to visit. Let's act freely for the time being!"

"See you in the afternoon."

The first thing Zhang Yuan did when he walked into Europa base was to have a barbecue rice!

The aroma of the barbecue made him drool and the expectation of saliva secretion was as good as doing math problems!

Even though the taste is not as good as the big meal on Earth, it is no longer synthetic meat.

Compared to spacecraft, Europa base is simply paradise!

"Not bad, really good! You solved the turbulence problem!" The middle-aged man sitting opposite him was his father's former colleague, giving him a thumbs up and praising him repeatedly.

"Uncle Yuan, it's just luck. A method of numerical simulation has not been completely solved..." Zhang Yuan smiled embarrassedly.

"Luck? It depends on strength! Do you think I don't know what to do? There are many applications of turbulence, from astronomy to geography, look at Jupiter, isn't that big red spot formed by turbulence? By the way, what time will the meeting start?"

"About 1:00 p.m.," Zhang Yuan replied.

"Then you can take a little rest."

Their group was invited to Europa to attend an academic conference on the industry.

There are many existing achievements in this base, which are the crystallization of human wisdom and are worth learning from.

Large buildings inside the ice sheet are actually very particular. Various structures such as heat dissipation, support, and sewage discharge need to be planned in a coordinated manner. In particular, the heat emitted cannot exceed the capacity of the entire ice sheet, otherwise too much ice melts, which may cause landslides, earthquakes and other vicious accidents.

Europa, as a relatively successful immigration planet, will definitely benefit from field investigations and learning more new things.

"Uncle Yuan, when will you go back to Earth?" Zhang Yuan patted his stomach with satisfaction and asked again.

"It will be three years in three months. I will never come to this ghost place again. I can't video in real time, and I haven't seen my son and daughter for a long time. My muscles have also begun to shrink. If I don't go back, I will have a green grassland on my head."

"How can it be..." Zhang Yuan quickly called.

Europa is the most important resource of a civilization - energy. So this place is equivalent to the Middle East in the past, and the wages must be top-notch.

An ordinary worker has a working cycle of about three years.

Even the lowest-level position can earn millions.

However, because I am far away from the civilized center, although I have money, I cannot enjoy it, and it is even more impossible to take care of my family, so I will inevitably take certain risks... I have worked hard to make money back, but I found that there are countless stories of cuckolding.

"I have anything else I want to bring back to Earth. I can be a courier for you." Uncle Yuan said with a smile.

"Well..." Zhang Yuan thought for a while, "Do you have a postcard? I'll just send some postcards back."

"Okay, there are a few more pictures, so I'll give them all to you."

After thinking for a while, Zhang Yuan wrote several letters to Wang Lili, Xu Yunjing, Professor Wang Zhong, his sister-in-law and Han Ziyue respectively.

It is very brief, telling my recent experiences and insights.

When he wrote Han Ziyue's letter, Zhang Yuan was stunned and didn't know what to write.

"What, is it a girl?"

"Ah, a pretty cute girl. I don't know how it's going."

"That's how..." Uncle Yuan smiled, as if he understood very much.

What to write?

Zhang Yuan had a sudden inspiration and drew a picture of himself on the postcard. A planet, Jupiter, floated in the sky.

His sketching skills were not very good, but he just learned it briefly with the painter Erwin. The whole portrait looked crooked and much ugly than him.

However, it is precisely because of its ugliness that it looks inexplicably funny.

Sign your name below.

[Zhang Yuan, 2265.8.31]

I have no chance to be with you all the way, no excuse to talk to you all night long, and no chance to tell you my current life. I can only send a postcard to tell you that I am very good, and it is better to miss you than to meet you.

Take care of each other.

Zhang Yuan sighed slightly in his heart.

Finally, he left one for himself.

After considering it, I wrote: [Today, we came to Europa, the most peripheral industrial base of human beings, and the mothership will provide the last resource supply here. Europa is not as good as the earth, but it is much more down-to-earth than the spacecraft. After all, it is a planet.]

[Next, we will rush to the distant starry sky, and I don’t know when we will reach another planet.]

[The long night is long and I don’t know the road ahead. I hope that in the future, we can remember this beautiful and tender day.]

【2265.8.31】

After writing it, it is inexplicably heavy.

Zhang Yuan raised his head and said, "I keep this one myself. The rest, after you return to the earth, please send it to me in the email."

"Okay, this little thing is so strange!" Uncle Yuan put away the stack of postcards and nodded solemnly.
Chapter completed!
