Chu Ge smiled and thought to himself that Commander Wang was a true protector of the calf.

The speed of the space carrier was getting faster and faster, and Saturn was soon left behind and disappeared.

According to the flight path of the navigation computer, the flight will proceed in a zigzag pattern.

According to this route, the space carrier will not pass through the orbits of Uranus and Neptune.

Compared to the previous planets, humans know less about these two planets because of their locations.

They are all Jupiter-like planets. With the advancement of technology in recent years, the scientific community is more inclined to classify them as ice giants.

Because the internal elements and atmospheric structures of these two ice giants are completely different from those of Jupiter and Saturn.

Chu Ge has no time to pay attention to these two big ice pimples now.

The ice giants are too far away from the sun, and the extremely cold temperature of minus 220 degrees can kill all budding life forms.

At this time, Chu Ge thought of the clothes of those underground people, they seemed quite cool...

He always involuntarily regarded those people as the aliens he was looking for.

"Let's think so, what else is impossible now?" Chu Ge said to himself deep in his heart.

"Commander Chu, when the Kunpeng comes back, do you want to check the orbits of Uranus and Neptune?"

"If I don't go, even if I want to go, I'll leave it to the end. Given their harsh environment, there's little hope!"

"Human beings don't even understand how many satellites they have. Compared with the satellites of other planets, the discovered satellites are simply hell."

"And this place is too close to the edge of the solar system. My intuition tells me that this is not the habitat of that race."

Chu Ge replied affirmatively that if living creatures could be found on these two ice giants or even Pluto, it would be a real ghost.

...

The space carrier is moving in a roundabout way according to the computer program.

Two hours later, Chu Ge and Commander Wang went from exchanging words to each other for a long time without saying a word...

"General Chu, according to time, we will arrive at Kuiper Zone tomorrow morning."

"Why don't you go back and take a rest first?"

Commander Wang rubbed his eyes and said.

"Come on, it's not enough to rest. I have to go back and sort out the remaining blueprints of the heavy cruiser. In the past half a month, I have only sorted out less than a quarter."

"So fast? General Chu, sometimes I feel that you really don't look like a human being." Commander Wang's casual words made Chu Ge nervous for a long time.

"This, what are you talking about if it's not a human being?"

"A computer, a supercomputer..."

"Okay, my computer's memory is full, I have to go back and sort it out."

Chu Ge said, pointing to his head, then patted his butt and left.

Commander Wang looked at Chu Ge's leaving figure and smiled, then turned his head and continued to study the stars.

Back in the room, Chu Ge first opened the encrypted data terminal in the room.

He decided to sort out the electronic data that could be stored first, and move the detailed drawings of key components back to the moon base to sort them out.

Even electronic data cannot be transmitted to the earth through the network according to military regulations.

These data and drawings need to be transported directly to the shipyard base on Earth with the help of engineering ships.

This is the safest and most reliable method.

Once Chu Ge focused his attention on blueprint research, time became completely lost to him.

Commander Wang dragged him to dinner. After eating in a hurry, Chu Ge immediately sat back and continued to tidy up.

The huge body of the space carrier is as stable as flying in space, just like on the ground.

Chu Ge has never been on an aircraft carrier in the sea, so he doesn't know if it would be so stable if it sailed in the sea.

He had ridden on a giant ship before, but it didn't seem to move at all even when there were no strong winds or waves...

Chu Ge was woken up by Commander Wang in the morning. He didn't know how high his liver was yesterday.

I just felt tired and fell asleep on the table.

Following Commander Wang, Chu Ge stretched his limbs, as if he had plenty of physical strength and energy.

"Kunpeng's current position is approximately 42 astronomical units from the sun."

"The classical Kuiper Belt is about 42-48 astronomical units, so we can say that we are already in the Kuiper Belt."

While Commander Wang was talking, the two of them had already arrived at the flight control center.

Chu Ge looked around. The armor had been raised, which gave him a much better view.

"Don't worry, the Kunpeng has anchored and will not encounter any big celestial body. The detection system has been turned on and the weapon system is in place. It can handle special situations."

Commander Wang first introduced the status of the space carrier to Chu Ge, and he later issued instructions based on this.

"What about the two detectors?"

"Our detection systems haven't found it yet and may be in their silent period, but don't worry."

"Those two old antiques, it takes half a month to transfer a 1m-sized photo. They basically transfer it byte by byte."

"So they won't be silent for long."

Although Chu Ge did not check the performance data of these two detectors in detail, Commander Wang must be right. The communication speed in the 1970s was indeed incomparable with today.

Chu Ge looked outside through the porthole. It was strange that there was nothing outside. This was not like the Kuiper Belt in his impression.

"Commander Wang, we haven't entered the Kuiper Belt yet, have we?"

"On the threshold, we haven't even stepped forward yet. The orbit of 40-42 astronomical units is very special. It should still be Neptune's sphere of influence."

"Affected by it, this place has become a complete vacuum zone. Even if celestial bodies come in, they will be driven away by it."

"The incoming celestial bodies are either driven by Neptune to migrate toward the inner planetary system, or they are pushed directly into the discrete disk or the surrounding interstellar space."

Discrete Pan Chuge knows that the orbital environment of discrete celestial bodies in the ecliptic is very weird and extremely unstable.

Some celestial bodies spin around and are thrown into the Oort cloud or even further.

Eris, which humans have only recently learned about, is a discrete celestial body. Its vertical distance to the ecliptic plane is almost the same as its distance to the sun.

It was precisely because of its appearance that Pluto was kicked out of the planetary ranks and downgraded to a dwarf planet.

The vast majority of planets and their satellites in the solar system orbit within the ecliptic plane, and the discrete celestial bodies in the discrete disk are "orphans".

Humanity knows very little about these "orphans". Eris was not discovered until the 21st century. As for the cause of the formation of the discrete disk, it is all speculation and there is no reliable basis.

"Report, traces of Voyager 2 have been found, and the system is locking its orbital position."

Chu Ge’s wandering was interrupted by a report from the flight control center crew.

"Report, the orbital position has been locked, it is about 90 astronomical units away from us, it is in the interstellar space between the Oort Cloud and the Kuiper Belt."

This distance was within Chu Ge's estimation, and he knew that they had already passed through the Kuiper Belt before setting off.

The current location of the Kunpeng is just a rest area or a turning point. It was an area that humans have explored before.

"Commander Wang, the journey ahead is the real beginning of this exploration journey. What awaits us will be a truly unknown world. Are you ready?"

"Then what are you waiting for? The Kunpeng's armor is back in place, set the location of Voyager 2 as the destination, and set off!!!"
