Forget it, let's just make it ourselves. We can make it by 2120, right? He will only be 123 years old by then, and he is in his prime. There is no need to rush for one or two hundred years.
"Buzz~~"
Suddenly, there was a slight vibration from the hull, and the scenery outside the porthole changed dramatically. They were taking off and leaving the earth.
The interior of the spacecraft used high-tech, so even though the speed of takeoff far exceeded the third cosmic speed, Xia Yu did not feel any discomfort at all.
Soon he watched the ground change from "flat" to round, and the blue planet appeared before his eyes as if it had been photographed by a satellite.
I have to say, she is really beautiful. As the mother planet that gave birth to human civilization, she can touch the emotions of all mankind more than any country or region.
Looking at the earth from the universe, you are not from continent X, he is not from country X, we are all from the earth, and we all have a common hometown.
Xia Yu turned and walked to another porthole. The rust-colored planet reflected over there was Mars, his destination and the first extraterrestrial planet to be explored by humans.
The moon is just a satellite after all. Its harsh environment makes it completely uninhabitable except for scientific research and mining.
Mars is different. It is entirely possible for humans to build a self-sufficient city there, especially with its artificial meat technology.
Before that, Xia Yu will become the first person to visit Mars.
It’s exciting to think about it. Looking at Mars getting closer and closer, he estimated that it would take less than half an hour by boat.
For this journey, the record for human unmanned spacecraft is 180 days, while alien technology does not even require 180 minutes. The gap in civilization is so huge.
While expressing his feelings, Xia Yu also believes that with the joint efforts of all mankind, civilization will eventually be pushed to the next level.
This day will not be too far away, and we will definitely see it in our lifetime.
"Buzz~~"
The spacecraft began to slow down, and they had entered the low-Earth orbit of Mars, and at this moment, a door opened in the cabin wall.
Um?
No need to pull the light anymore?
Xia Yu walked towards the door curiously. After passing through a long passage, Xia Yu saw a row of "torpedo tubes".
No, it should be the landing shuttle that comes with the spacecraft, just like the lifeboat and speedboat on a giant ship, used for landing personnel when there is no deep-water port to dock.
“Puff~~”
The hatch of the outermost landing shuttle opened to both sides, and a puff of white sealing gas emerged, signaling him to go in so that he could land on the surface of Mars.
With the system as a backup, Xia Yu was not too worried about safety issues and walked in directly.
“Puff~~”
The hatch closed airtight again, and a projection lit up out of nowhere, displaying the scene outside like a car surveillance camera.
"Bang~~"
The landing shuttle suddenly shook, and the image on the projection also changed, from inside the spacecraft to outside the spacecraft, but the speed was a bit like free fall?
"Buzz~~"
The spacecraft vibrated again, and a status diagram of the landing shuttle appeared in the corner of the projection. The tail engine started to slow down, and then the entire landing shuttle inserted into the sandy surface of Mars at an acceptable speed.
Landing, success!
Before Xia Yu could calm down, the landing shuttle began to deform with a click and soon turned into a vehicle similar to an all-terrain vehicle.
It has the functions of both interstellar landing and planetary transportation, and returning to the mother ship should also rely on this landing shuttle, but how should it be controlled?
Just when Xia Yu was confused, a steering wheel stretched out in front of him. It was a driving mode simulated from Earth's car, and he could drive it like a car.
It looks really impressive, but is this the entire journey to Mars just on this "Mars rover"?
Xia Yu regretted not getting a spacesuit, otherwise he could have experienced camping on Mars.
When a giant collapsed, a lot of original goods flowed out. You can get both outdoor and indoor suits. You can refurbish them and use them as new ones without worrying about leaks or anything.
Now that he's on Mars, it's too late to regret. All I can do is feel sorry...
uh-huh?
The projection in front of him changed again. The alien text that he could not understand just now was now translated into Chinese. Xia Yu saw an option to exit the cabin.
He tapped the air with his fingers, and a drawer similar to the armrest box opened, with three discs inside.
Is this the membrane spacesuit from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2?
Xia Yu picked up one with a button on it. He put the metal disc against his body and pressed the button.
A transparent film extended from all sides of the disc, covering Xia Yu's entire body in just one breath.
There is no obstruction to breathing, no temperature change, and all kinds of harmful and harmless cosmic rays should be blocked out, but what Xia Yu values most is its lightness.
There is no extravehicular space suit that can be found on Earth that weighs less than 100 kilograms. Even though the gravity on Mars is much smaller than that on Earth, extravehicular activities are actually very difficult.
Now the system has helped solve this problem. If it is just a thin film, it will not affect Xia Yu's mobility at all.
Taking out the camera from the storage space, he clicked on the projection to exit the cabin.
“Puff~~”
The airtight hatch opened automatically, and a strange planet was waiting for him to set foot on.
The hiking boots wrapped in film stepped on the soft sand, leaving the first footprints. Xia Yu used his camera to record this historic moment.
One small step for him, one giant leap for mankind.
Then he stepped out with his other foot, and Xia Yu felt good with both feet standing on Mars.
Looking around, the endless yellow sand is just like the Yardang landform on Earth, but the sky is not clear. The dust floating in the air dyes the sky yellow-brown, like the end of the world.
