When the energy of the amethyst in the power supply system of the ship is crazy to export high-purity energy, like the ring honeycomb-like thousands of lasers irradiate 330,000 particles of the laser at the front of the super light sail, carrying tens of thousands of lasers with high-speed particle torrent of tens of thousands of lasers on the length of 16.8 kilometers of light sails, and the mirror shield (ps: a material, not the legendary energy shield) protects the ship from the continuous output of the laser.

The entire vehicle began its first acceleration.

If calculated in theory, if the thousand lasers on the Mars Express always maintain continuous irradiation of giant light sails for 200 days, that is, about 7 months of continuous output, then the spacecraft will always be accelerated at 1.34 times the gravity of 200 days, accelerating to the equivalent of 72.46% of the speed of light in the nearly 7 months.At this rate, less than six years, almost six years to reach the Alpha Centauri galaxy.

Of course, this is only the theory, the ship's hull with the existing human technology, the material strength is impossible to withstand such a fast speed, human physical fitness can not meet this requirement, in addition to the limit of the hull material strength, thousands of laser output will always have a limit, can not appear output overload phenomenon, obviously, the current technology can not do 200 days of continuous laser irradiation.

And the distance to Mars is relatively close to the alpha galaxy, Ren Hong their goal is to reach Mars in about 100 days or so, is also the scope of the current technology, and then a step closer may appear the catastrophic danger of hull damage, before the birth of emerging materials, can only allow such a speed.

Acceleration is a long process, and it is not done at once, because the reason for the human body's tolerance limit, it must be used for the regulation of the body many times, and each acceleration is a kind of torture to the human body, and such torture will withstand 15 times on the long road to Mars.Fourteen times came from the acceleration of the spacecraft itself, and one from the sun.

"Noah" with the help of Venus's gravity to obtain an acceleration, "Mars Express" also has to take a free gravitational acceleration, but the object of the request is not comparable to Venus, which is the largest celestial body in the entire solar system, absolutely dominate the sun.

There are amethyst crystals, energy reserves naturally do not have to worry, but not to say that they can be just wasted, not to mention the energy consumption of other equipment and instruments, just the energy output of thousands of lasers, the energy consumption is burning money ah, an acceleration of energy output, converted into money that is equivalent to burning 120 million yuan, a one-way road, energy consumption alone is about 1.6 billion yuan, burning can be real money.

With the help of the sun's gravity in addition to a good gravitational acceleration, 16.8 km long super sail, the most outer layer in addition to a strong protective function, but also an important part of the intake of solar energy, in the near the sun is also an excellent opportunity to the spacecraft amethyst filling capacity, 16.8 km long sail, its huge irradiation area can recover from the sun about 700 million yuan worth of energy, you know, the closer to the sun, its energy collection efficiency is higher, before being far away from the sun.

Since then, one stone and two birds have indirectly controlled the cost of energy consumed by acceleration to less than 1 billion yuan.

This time to Mars, the Mars Express brought the "Flamingo" space station, and when it returns, it may come from where to return to Earth with a large number of amethysts."Mars Express" has no suspense to become the perfect means of transportation for matrix technology to cross long distances between stars.

"Mars Express" to achieve the realization of many aspects of high-end technology integration, from the end of the laser technology is a key, and the Hadi Axe base has such a big breakthrough obviously inseparable from the support of the state, to know that the Republic's laser technology is a typical rising star (ps: reality is indeed, has been ahead of the Americans, really proud.Thanks to technology sharing, the engineers at the Hadi Axe base do not have to waste a lot of time, energy, financial and material resources in order to catch up with the starting line.

In addition, the birth of the "Mars Express" also has a major key point, that is, "sentry ring mission", the engineers of the sentry station in order to deal with the possible impact of the asteroid problem, there are proposals to use nuclear bombs, there are proposals to use the impact method to change the asteroid orbit, nuclear explosion is obviously not, will only produce a large number of meteorite rain, which is a more terrible disaster, not only to form a huge threat to the earth surface, but also to destroy a large number of satellites operating in space orbit or space station, the film and television works.

In countless programs, the use of light sail to "dragging" the meteorite is also in the process, the theoretical feasibility is very large, but the degree of difficulty is also prohibitive, the amount of engineering is too large, although the country's laser technology has been quite mature, the biggest obstacle is only the huge volume.

The news was soon learned by the "Mars mission" responsible person, which gave them a huge inspiration, so the relatively "small" "Mars Express" was included in the research and development charter."Mars Express" was born in this way, cmsx engineers even said that in the future, this long-distance large-ship space transport vehicle can even undertake the huge concept of asteroid belt mining, the use of "Mars Express" can be completely able to transport minerals from the asteroid back to Earth.

And now, it is not to go to Mars to mine the precious purple crystal veins!

June 22, 2028, orbiting Mars.

"Noah", finally arrived in the outer region of Mars orbit today, at this moment, the spacecraft has begun to slow down, is about to enter the scope of Mars' gravitational field, the planet that makes the human soul dream finally ushered in the "brother" visit for the first time...

“Slow down to finish!Stable!"

Noah has entered the gravitational field of Mars.Stable!"

“The shipping lanes are being reformulated, the new ones are being regulated!”

“The roadway is completed.The road is done!”

"Noah has successfully entered the new channel and is currently orbiting Mars, orbiting Mars for a period of 67 minutes and 38 seconds."

“I’m sorry, there’s no lady.Well, guys, we have Mars under our feet... we’re here!”

"No one can appreciate the painful thing that has been fulfilled in the stars for more than 200 days, waking up from sleep again and again, lonely, far from home, fear, oh God, no one will know how I feel!"But all this, when you see the planet beneath your feet, you will find that it's worth it."

“This is the Noah,” Skovo Audland reported to the Houston Space Center.We have successfully and safely reached the target of Mars, and Noah is currently in stable orbit around Mars, and everything is normal.According to the plan's charter, in three days, Jackson and I will take the Orion spacecraft to visit the planet for the first time on behalf of humanity, and wish us a good luck, Houston, and the text report is complete."

"The message went, and depending on the current distance of Mars from Earth, Houston would receive a text message in about 19 minutes."

“Well, guys, we’ll have a day off, a day off and ready, and land on the surface of Mars three days later, but now, I suggest you make a cup of coffee and then take a good view of Mars through the window in the centrifuge, and unfortunately we’ll never see Olympus and Mariner’s Valley again, but we can see the new Olympus Olympus masterpiece of Terminator Asteroid...”
