Ceres is so small compared to Earth that the gravity acceleration on the surface of Ceres is only 0.27, compared to 9.8 on Earth, the difference cannot be calculated in Taoism.

Ceres' escape speed is only 510 meters (1836 kilometers per hour), which is really not enough compared to the speed of 11.2-11.3 kilometers per hour. On Ceres, the speed reaches about 350 meters per second (1260 kilometers per hour), and it can initially get rid of the planet's gravity and upgrade to a satellite.

Liu Haibo was resting, and the rest were the squad leader responsible. The positions of the squad leader were also different; in order to prevent command chaos, without Liu Haibo present, the captains of the ten teams were dispatched by themselves: from No. 1 to No. 1, the command power was reduced in turn. The captain of the first team could be said to be the position of deputy captain of the expedition brigade.

However, now, the person in charge is Comrade Su Jiuyang, the captain of the Second Team, and the person in charge of the spacecraft is also the personnel of the Second Team.

"Keep the spacecraft stable and release nanosatellite exploration. Don't miss any corner of Ceres. Once individual cases are found, please report them in time."

Nano-satellites are released, maintaining a speed of 400 meters in seconds. Such a speed can orbit Ceres in about two hours and twelve minutes. Among these satellites, some are responsible for exploring elemental structures, some are responsible for exploring temperatures, some are responsible for exploring geographical structures, some are responsible for exploring radiation, magnetic fields, light, etc. Hundreds of nano-satellites of all sizes are released. Moreover, these satellites are not single-use and can still be recycled in the later stages.

Segment of data are constantly transmitted back, and all kinds of data need to be sorted out; the second team is busy without touching the ground. More importantly, we have been going through nearly two days and still cannot adapt to the current state of life: everything seems to have been delayed. Of course, after so long (starting from crossing the orbit of Mars), we are gradually accustomed to such a life; of course, we are slowly returning to normal now. Just like we are coming to a strange environment, it always takes some time to adapt.

In fact, after this period of exploration, everyone has also discovered that humans will still be affected outside of the orbit of Mars; the habitable zone in the universe is not as simple as the surface (liquid water), and there are other reasons; but humans are also extremely adaptable: until now, they are slowly recovering, and physiological problems have not been destroyed. This shows that humans are fully qualified to undergo real space immigration. Of course, the premise is that scientific power can keep up.

Now, 24 hours of detection of Ceres, on the other hand, try to make everyone adapt to the current environment. Slow action and slow thinking are extremely dangerous in space exploration. You can't wait until the danger comes before you discover it.

However, theoretically speaking, the danger is not particularly great when detecting naked stars like Ceres (no atmosphere) and death stars (no crust movement). It can only be said that there are some dangers, after all, this is an unknown world.

"So beautiful!" A team member observed Ceres through a telescope.

Although it is a little far away from the sun and is three distances above the earth, the visible light on the front is already bright enough. Even under the sunlight, water vapor will occasionally emerge in some cracks.

Of course, the detection on the earth shows that these water vapors should belong to the situation of comets, which are formed by the direct sublimation of ice by ice without going through liquid process. However, close observations overturned this conclusion because these water vapors obviously have fog bead states; although the time and distance are very short, they quickly turn into shiny ice crystals; but in the equatorial part, there are still many locations where water vapor will appear, but after one or two centimeters away from the ground, it will turn into ice crystals.

Under the observation of the high-power telescope, these subtle changes are clear at a glance, especially now that the spacecraft is only 300 kilometers away from Ceres.

Ceres under the sun, at first glance, is really beautiful: there is a flat ice surface, bright like a mirror; there are red ditches, which are clay; and brown spots, which are mountains.

Only in space can we understand that a world with water is a beautiful world, even if this world is an frozen world. Water is the source of life for human beings. Even if you look at it from a distance, it will make people feel moved - this feeling is especially obvious in lonely space.

"I bet there is definitely liquid water on Ceres. If there is liquid water, it may have a simple life!" This is an extremely young team member and a rising star in the expert company.

Looking at the boy with a little fluffy on his mouth, a 20-year-old boy, Su Jiuyang replied in encouraging words: "Xiaolin (Lin Fengyun), don't worry; when you have the chance to land on Ceres tomorrow, we will untie its veil ourselves. Well, it is equivalent to untie the veil of the bride. If you want, you can be the first to land. Of course, this will be a bit dangerous."

"I'll go! That's me!" Lin Fengyun agreed without hesitation. Without saying anything else, the first landing on Ceres is a moment of history! As a young man, how could he withstand such temptation? "If it was a bride, I would marry this bride home!"

"Haha... Kobayashi, the average radius of this bride is about 470 kilometers. Is your stuff long enough? Hahaha..."

For a moment, with a little yellow digestion, it resounded throughout the spacecraft's main control room.

"Hmph! Is my stuff enough? Many female employees can prove it! I just heard that some people are always ridiculed by female employees!" Although Lin Fengyun has just become an adult, his wisdom is precocious these days, and he is sharp-tongued.

In an instant, there was another burst of laughter. Seeing that it was about to land on Ceres, everyone felt much more relaxed. A key task was completed, indicating that the way home was one step closer.

24 hours later, after preliminary exploration, it was proved that Ceres had a completely solid core, but the strata was too thick and the nanosatellite power was insufficient. Even a specially designed gamma-ray detection satellite had a penetration power of the ice layer only about 30 kilometers; and when it reached the rocky ground, it was even only 3 kilometers of effective detection distance; and when it reached the liquid water, the detection distance was only a pitiful few hundred meters - it has not been detected yet.

And these data are far from enough for detecting a cold, frozen planet that is said to be at least 4 billion years old. Therefore, this exploration is a destructive detection plan - of course, this is the last choice.

At this time, Liu Haibo had already rested and re-monitored all adventure activities. Of course, another team was already in charge of operating the spacecraft at this time.

“Have you found something special?”

"Yes!" Yang Zhencheng, the captain of the fifth team, replied: "In this area, the area A we just divided, the ice layer is particularly flat, and there may be liquid water under the satellite detection."

"Are there any dangers found?"

"Not yet." Yang Zhencheng answered very affirmatively.

"Okay, let everyone know that the teams that have already rested are ready to land." Liu Haibo finally announced the decision that excited everyone.
Chapter completed!
