Chapter 854: Landing on Mars!
"The Mars Lander has landed successfully and is testing the surrounding environment..."
Following the commander-in-chief's announcement, everyone was ready to leave the cabin.
This time the landing point was calculated precisely, and if there are no accidents, it is a very suitable location for landing.
After instrument testing, it was proved that there was no problem with the surrounding environment and the conditions for leaving the cabin were fully met.
"Everything is normal around the landing point, prepare to exit the cabin!"
After hearing the commander-in-chief's order, the hatches of each Mars lander opened one after another, and everyone carefully came out of the lander.
Although the gravity on Mars is only 38 percent of that on Blue Planet, when combined with the weight of the space suit, astronauts will not feel any more relaxed than on Blue Planet.
Fortunately, the modified Martian spacesuit is much lighter than the lunar version, allowing astronauts to walk more flexibly on the surface of Mars.
After everyone set foot on the land of Mars, they were all very excited. After all, this was the first time in human history that people landed on Mars.
At this time, the process of the manned landing on Mars was also being broadcast live around the world, and people across the blue planet were excited about it.
Billions of people around the world, regardless of day or night, are cheering enthusiastically for this new achievement made by mankind.
"After so many years of hard work, humans have finally conquered another planet! Next, humans will roam the entire solar system and become a true interstellar civilization!"
"It's so exciting! Although this may seem like just a small step, it is another big step in the history of human civilization on Blue Planet! Long live Shenzhou Spaceflight! Long live Blue Planet!"
"It is expected that humans will develop Mars in the future, and Mars will then become another gathering place for human civilization. We should prepare to buy a house on Mars as soon as possible , as it will surely appreciate in value in the future!"
While billions of people were excitedly discussing this, the astronauts had already arrived on Mars and began conducting various measurements of the surrounding environment.
Although there is an atmosphere on Mars, the atmosphere on the surface of Mars is too sparse, and the effect of direct face-to-face communication is very poor, so astronauts can only communicate by radio.
“Is this… Mars?”
Xu You controlled the Martian robot to move back and forth on the surface of Mars, feeling an indescribable mood.
At this moment, Xu You knew clearly that his body had not come to Mars in person, and he was just controlling a Martian robot to move around on Mars.
However, this very real feeling made Xu You feel as if he was really on Mars.
After completing the preliminary environmental measurements, the astronauts began to carry out the next important mission.
Plant a flag on Mars.
Several astronauts first erected the flag representing the blue planet on Mars.
Hu Shucheng erected the flag of Shenzhou next to him, with a very serious and solemn expression.
This was a task that Hu Shucheng strongly hoped to complete before coming to Mars, and in the end Hu Shucheng realized his wish.
Watching these flags fluttering above Mars, everyone's emotions reached a new high again.
"Okay, let's build the base first. I will need to stay on Mars for at least a month in the future."
Under the command of the commander-in-chief, everyone began to build the Mars base.
Before everyone landed, aerospace fighters had already dropped camp bags on Mars.
This is a relatively simple Mars camp that cannot meet all living needs, but it is still more comfortable to live in than the Mars lander.
The construction of the Mars base took a long time. After all, it was a building that could accommodate more than ten people. Even if it was just a relatively simple base, it could not be built all at once.
In addition, everyone is wearing space suits and there are not so many diverse tools, so a lot of work needs to be done entirely by manpower.
Fortunately, six Martian robots are involved in these tasks, which has greatly accelerated the construction progress of the Mars base.
During this period, Xu You deliberately temporarily cancelled the control of the Martian robot. After all, this kind of physical labor is very energy-consuming, and Xu You felt that there is no need to participate in it.
After the construction of the Mars base was completed, everyone did not continue with other work, but entered the Mars base, prepared to have a good rest, and hold meetings to discuss future work.
Everyone is a little tired from the journey these days. Although this Mars base is not luxurious, it is definitely more comfortable than the aerospace fighter.
Coupled with the artificial gravity system of the Mars base, everyone can feel the same gravity as that of the Blue Planet, without that erratic feeling.
At this time, Xu You also regained control of the Martian robot and started discussing with everyone.
"Due to limitations of the environment and conditions, our exploration of Mars will not be too extensive this time. However, because our landing site was chosen very well this time, there are many areas nearby that are worth exploring, so these days are still enough for us to do a lot of work..."
Since this is only a manned landing on Mars by humans, the conditions are not yet perfect. When more astronauts come to Mars and continue to build Mars, the efficiency of Mars exploration .
At this time, Xu You controlled the Martian robot and said to everyone:
"I suggest that we start exploration from this location tomorrow. The temperature here is the most suitable, reaching 15 to 20 degrees Celsius when it is warm. There should be life, or at least traces of life."
According to Xu You's analysis of the Martian environment, most of the places where traces of life have appeared have higher temperatures. After all, most organisms find it difficult to survive under low temperature conditions, and the same is true for the organisms that may exist on Mars.
"Okay, let's follow Academician Xu's idea. Let's have a good rest tonight and continue working tomorrow."
After some discussion, everyone decided on the general plan for the next step.
After the meeting, Xu You temporarily released control of the Martian robot and transferred his consciousness back to the Blue Planet.
While others are resting in the Mars base, Xu You naturally doesn't need to control the Martian robot anymore. Instead, he should conserve his energy and wait until tomorrow to explore Mars in the best condition.
