Chapter 42: Shameful plan(1/2)
According to the plan, the three UFOs established contact with the Mariner probes on Mars.
But unfortunately, Cheng Xiao did not tell them where the UFO was abandoned, and the Mariner did not find the location of the UFO was abandoned.
"Mars is so big, where can we find the UFO abandoned by the Redeemer civilization? Maybe it will be buried long ago." Captain Yu Yifeng was a little confused.
This confusion is not the confusion of lack of confidence in oneself and the earth, but the fear of a strange planet.
"Contact all Mars explorers and launch small satellite explorations. Captain, don't lose confidence. We are firm communist fighters." The general said calmly.
"I know, I'm just worried that there will be some accidents when staying for too long." Yu Yifeng said in a deep voice.
"If you say this kind of morale blow, it is not something a captain should do." The general said in a low voice.
Yu Yifeng suddenly woke up.
What's wrong with me?
Why do I feel a sense of powerlessness?
Where is your own confidence?
Yu Yifeng couldn't help but feel panic in his heart. Where did this emotion come from?
Yu Yifeng, who tried to calm down, issued an order to "launch all satellites and contact the ground explorer."
"Yes." An astronaut immediately went to execute.
Looking at the yellow-brown sky of Mars and the blue sun, Yu Yifeng felt a trance. He could not control this emotion and had to stop looking. As the saying goes, he was not upset without seeing it.
The girl and Logic did not have this emotion. After confirming that there was no danger around, the two walked down in space suits.
"Is this Mars?" The girl was stunned at first sight.
The logic was also a little shocked, and he stared at the surface and sky of Mars in a daze.
"Blue sun, look at it." The girl suddenly shouted.
Logic only felt a tingling sensation in the ear.
"When you speak softly, if you are too loud, the communicator will stimulate our ears." Logic reminded softly.
The girl nodded and looked at the blue sun again.
"You said, why is the sun on Mars blue?" the girl asked curiously.
Logic thought for a while and said, "The day on Mars is 24 hours and 39 minutes, but the color of sunsets and sunrises there is different from that on Earth. First, the solar radiation reaching the surface of Mars is only equivalent to the amount of light that has in the cloudy afternoons on Earth. This is because the distance between Mars and the Sun is halfway away from the Earth. A longer distance means less sunlight."
"Not only that, the span of the sun on Earth is 0.5, while on Mars, the sun is only 0.35 degrees. If you extend your arms, your little finger can cover the area of two suns on Earth, and on Mars, it can cover three."
"On Earth, dust particles in the atmosphere can scatter blue-green light at sunset or sunrise, making the sun appear yellow, orange and red. If the clouds reflect these colors, the entire sky will be dyed red, forming an extremely beautiful glow."
"While on Mars, the situation is a little different. The tiny dust that permanently exists in the Martian atmosphere absorbs blue light and scatters warmer light, so the color of the sky is different from what we are familiar with. At the same time, dust particles near the sun will scatter blue light in the direction of the observer, forming a cold blue halo near the sun. So when we stand on Mars to watch the sunset, we see blue light near the horizon, which is produced at the bottom of the sunshine, which is rich in dust atmospheric atmosphere of sunlight."
"The blue light from the sun is scattered by molecules in the air when it passes through the Earth's atmosphere, forming a blue sky. But the atmosphere of Mars is only 1% of that of the Earth, so this blue color can only be seen through the densest Martian air and dust at sunset or sunrise."
"On Earth, when sunset or sunrise, the sun looks like an oval with a slightly flattened bottom due to the atmospheric refractive effect. This is because the air density near the horizon is high, which will refract the sunlight upwards and compress the image at the bottom of the sun. The upper part is higher and the air refractive index is lower, so this effect is less obvious. When the sun rises to the middle sky, the atmospheric density decreases and the refractive decreases, and the sun looks round again."
"But on Mars, whether in images taken by Curiosity or Opportunity, the shape of the sun is almost unchanged at sunset or sunrise. At least we cannot detect this change with the naked eye. The reason is that the atmosphere of Mars is too thin, so the refractive effect is minimal."
"The twilight on Mars lasts for a long time because there is a lot of dust brought by the storm in its stratosphere, which reflects sunlight for at least two hours after the sun sets. Therefore, the difference in sunset between Mars and Earth is due to its unique atmospheric characteristics."
Logic explained to the girl like a guide, and the girl looked confused.
I waited for a few seconds before I could react and clapped, of course, there was no sound applause.
"Although I can't understand, how can your knowledge reserves be so strong?" the girl asked.
Logic smiled: "As a top scientist, if I can't even understand the things recorded in the data many years ago, then I'd rather sell vegetables."
"I guess you can become the richest man in the county even if you sell vegetables." The girl smiled.
"It's too much, what we have to do next is to find the abandoned UFO. Go and ask the captain what he said." Logic walked towards the Lower Space.
"Wait for me." The girl hurriedly chased after her.
At this time, the number below the deep space... Yu Yifeng washed his face with water, looked at himself reflected on the glass, feeling a little confused.
Is this still the self who once landed on the moon?
Is this still the self who once brought glory to the country?
Why did I suddenly become timid when I arrived on Mars?
He shook his head vigorously, Yu Yifeng clenched his fists, his nails were trapped in the flesh. He stared at himself on the glass fiercely, cursing in his heart, "Calm up, wait for you to go back, become a hero, you are the first man to climb onto Mars!"
It seemed that hypnosis had played a role, and Yu Yifeng slightly calmed down his anxious mood.
At this time his communication equipment rang.
"Captain Yu Yifeng, I am Logical, please open the door."
Yu Yifeng looked outside through the monitor, confirmed that it was Logic and the girl, and then opened the door.
"Welcome to both." Yu Yifeng said with a smile.
As soon as Logic and the girl came in, the operation room, which was not big, immediately felt crowded.
The girl felt uncomfortable and always leaned against the edge of the disc.
"Captain Yu Yifeng, I want to ask, how do you plan to search for abandoned flying saucers?" asked Logic.
"We have launched small satellites and also controlled the search for those probes before," Yu Yifeng replied.
After listening to the logic, I frowned a little.
You should know that although Mars is not as large as the Earth, its diameter is 6,794 kilometers, which is equivalent to half an earth. You can find the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month in this way. Sure enough, humans still lack cosmic experience...
But for a while, logic could not think of any good idea, and the atmosphere continued to stalemate.
As I thought about it, Logic suddenly remembered something.
This time, the Mars Light Project was informed by quantum life forms, so the quantum life forms must know, so why not ask him?
Since he is willing to tell the head of state that if the news is true, he will definitely hope that humans will obtain controllable nuclear fusion, and it is very likely that they will be watching us secretly...
Why not... let us beg him, hoping that he still has feelings.
Although... no one knows where he is, he must still be observing humans in secret.
The logic is very clear and I informed all the people of my ideas.
"...This feels a bit embarrassing." Both the General and Yu Yifeng did not agree.
But the girl was excited.
"Okay, let me tell my dad."
The general glanced at the girl, wanted to speak but stopped, but in the end he didn't say it.
Finally, Yu Yifeng showed that if no trace was found within three days, he would act according to a logical plan.
As expected, after three days of hard work, I couldn’t find anything.
Yu Yifeng had a dark face and informed the girl and logic of the news.
The girl was very happy. She felt that quantum life forms would definitely help humans, and she could get in touch with quantum life forms again.
Yu Yifeng sent the message to the Ministry of National Defense.
A few minutes later, the Ministry of Defense received news from Yu Yifeng.
Suddenly... there was an uproar.
"This... is too embarrassing." The Minister of Defense had a little black face.
"Indeed." The Deputy Minister of National Defense also looked black-faced.
"But it has to be decided by the head of state," the Minister of Defense reported the news to the head of state.
The head of state also looked black after hearing this.
It is also a blessing for all human beings to seek the quantum life form.
But the report shows that there is no gain in three days, and that this move is not inferior to being embarrassed, and it is not other than being shameful, and it is embarrassing to all mankind. In this way, everyone is the same.
...It seems that the meaning of embarrassment is aimed at other people, but it is not embarrassing when all human beings are embarrassed together.
Besides, the quantum life form has saved human life, so it’s nothing to ask for.
Besides... this is human beings saving themselves. Controlled nuclear fusion is beneficial to human beings. It is nothing to ask humans for quantum life forms... It really seems nothing.
This is how the head of state thought.
After the news spread, ordinary people disagreed.
They once lived in a difficult society, and they knew the warmth and coldness of the people and the world. At this time, for the development of civilization, what's wrong?
Even if they kneel down at this time, they are willing. And at this time they are not alone, but all human beings, and they are even a little excited.
At this time, Cheng Xiao was still in the office. He used surveillance quantum to monitor the Deep Space under the sky above Mars, but he was not detailed enough that he could hear anything the person inside said. So he didn't understand the plan of the person inside.
But he wanted to change his name at this moment, so he changed it from Xiao to Xiao.
When Cheng Xiao saw a window pop up suddenly and could not be closed, his heart was completely uneasy, but when he saw what was written in it, he was a little puzzled.
To be continued...
