Chapter seven hundred and seventy-three Outer exploration
A series of big projects such as the federal moon and Venus did not affect him too much.
For example, at the end of last year (221), the Ministry of Space of Mars built a Mars outpost on Phobos, and also sent five astronauts to watch the Mars outpost for a long time.
In addition to studying Martian life, this Mars outpost also shoulders the responsibility of communication relay and monitoring the outer class of the sun.
This outpost has been expanded one after another this year.
At present, there are 362 space capsules with a row of materials for communication and maintenance.
November 2, 222
After 173 days’ flight, the Zhu Rong-class 12 spacecraft transported 34 tons of materials, and an astronaut arrived at the Mars outpost.
The base has been on duty for a year and three months, and the first batch of astronauts have finally finished their work. They can take the spaceship and return to Blue Star to rest.
Compared with Venus, Mars is more troublesome, mainly because the surface of Mars is not safe with all kinds of deadly microorganisms, so it is temporarily impossible to establish a base on the surface of Mars.
In this way, the base can set up Phobos, Phobos or Mars near-earth orbit.
These regional construction bases are facing a problem, that is, low gravity environment will have various adverse effects on astronauts’ health.
Although the Ministry of Space has equipped all astronauts with pressed nano-armor, nano-robots and various drugs to relieve Tai Syndrome.
However, these measures are only delaying and cannot achieve a radical effect.
Venus, on the other hand, is different from Mars. Not only can we set up a ground base, but the gravity of the planet is also very close to that of the blue star.
There is a huge difference between the surface of Venus and the orbit of Mars, and the normal working hours of astronauts alone are about 2-3 times different.
The first batch of astronauts on duty at the Mars outpost only worked here for 15 months and went back and forth for about one month, so the total time was about 25 months.
It is not impossible to extend it, but it is not necessary. As time goes on, the possibility of astronauts’ physical problems will soar.
If there is something wrong with the astronauts in the middle, it will really outweigh the benefits.
It’s not like space transportation is so tight that it needs one gram. In the era of computing, it’s a big deal to arrange more spacecraft.
Su Xiaoyu, the captain of the second batch of astronauts, and the first batch of astronauts on duty personally sent them into the hibernation cabin to start the autopilot of the Zhu Rong spacecraft after the handover.
Zhu Rong spacecraft spewed a reddish flame and gradually disappeared in the sight of Su Xiaoyu and others.
"All right, everyone, take your positions!" Su Xiaoyu turned to everyone and said
"White" the astronauts answered with a smile.
Although there are individuals, they are responsible for everything, but it is very complicated.
Three people are responsible for the surface work of Mars; The two are responsible for the communication logistics and management of Bluestar Headquarters; The remaining three people are responsible for the asteroid belt, Jupiter and Saturn exploration.
Although we know that the sun, Venus and Mars are the most suitable planets for human beings at present, the Federation has not given up on asteroids bringing other outer planets.
At this time, there are 136 probes in the asteroid belt, Jupiter and Saturn.
There are 55 detectors in the asteroid belt; Jupiter has 42 orbits; Saturn has 39 orbits.
With so many detectors launched,
On the one hand, because the distance is too far, the detector can’t be too big, which limits the function of the detector, so more detectors are needed to carry all kinds of instruments and equipment
On the other hand, there are too many celestial bodies in asteroid belt, Jupiter and Saturn.
The asteroid belt has a large number of asteroids, while Jupiter and Saturn have too many natural satellites.
So many detectors are still not enough.
For example, Jupiter Europa has an atmosphere and Titan is Thanos’s hometown-Titan.
These two planets are the key planets of the Federation.
The Europa detectors currently arranged are "Du Fu", "Peony" and "Wind Signal". The Titan probes are Granite and Hetian Jade respectively.
The reason why NASA doesn’t feel enough is that these two planets are strange.
Europa has a huge ice sheet, which may be as thick as 1 km, and the ice sheet may be a liquid ocean.
Titan, on the other hand, has a dense atmosphere, and the pressure intensity is 15 times that of the blue star, which is also a very special planet.
Judging from the conditions of the planets, Europa and Titan are more suitable for the birth of life than Mars.
Since Mars is biological, Europa and Titan may also be biological.
Although the birth of special creatures in these strange environments may be accompanied by unknown risks, it also contains some research value.
For example, Martian fluorescing fungi and thermophilic fungi have a lot of scientific research value, and various technologies can be developed, even whether human beings can really adapt to various cosmic environments in the future.
Sometimes the meaning of life is not only a part of ecology, but also an environmental creation.
This kind of life body, which was born after hundreds of millions of years of changes in the natural environment, is a rare miracle
At present, 723 species have been found in the Martian ecosystem, and some of these species contain blue star life without special organic matter.
Many of these organic compounds have been studied, and several of them have effects on human body.
