Chapter 397 Archaeological Excavations on Mars
"Hi! Pay attention, we are going to conduct archaeological excavation on Mars!" Liu Haibo yelled excitedly. Not touching the female color also made Liu Haibo a little depressed. Fortunately, he finally found a good target for venting today.
To be precise, such a discovery is exciting!
In fact, although no fossils of large animals were found in those large salt mines on Earth, many of them were found in some primitive lives, such as cavitation life. To be precise, these are all alternative pickles! (Okay, I admit that the taste is a bit heavy...)
Especially with the flow, changes, etc. of the lake, it will cause the mixture of salt layers and silt, and there are a large number of microbial fossils in the silt.
This is a real extraterrestrial archaeology and is of great significance. After exploration, this salt mine, just exposed to the ground, is ten kilometers in radius. It can be seen that this is definitely the result of a huge lake drying up. It is not even ruled out that it is a smaller bay.
After preliminary exploration of rays, this salt mine is extremely rich. Although the salt mine has severe barriers to rays, it is still discovered that one kilometer of salt mine is already as deep as one kilometer at the edge; based on this, it is estimated that the central depth is at least three or four kilometers thick.
"Use multiple rays to scan, then form the pictures of the body, and initially explore where should we start. We did not bring too many equipment, not enough manpower, and not enough time, so we can only explore and discover in more important locations." Liu Haibo was not influenced by joy and fantasy, but clearly realized that the current situation is not perfect. It can even be said that if we missed this opportunity, even if the power of a master company might not be able to return to Mars within two years, the cost would be too high!
Didi... Didi... The thin atmosphere on Mars transmits the sound of electronic instruments to everyone's ears. Although the sound is not clear because of the thin air and the blockage of the space suit, it is not clear, but you can hear the sound after all.
At the same time, the portable flat 3D display screen uses relatively poor 3D technology to display the scan results. The outlines of different ray scans are marked with different colors; but the depths of different ray scans are also different, so that the scanned pictures, if you don’t understand, look like a mess of threads mixed together.
Fortunately, these astronauts from the expert company have undergone special training and cannot be said to be proficient. At least they can understand it without any problem.
Electronic instruments are constantly working, and the staff scan the electronic instruments bit by bit according to the drawn lines, meticulously; and at the same time, the pictures on the computer screen are constantly being improved.
"This should be the outline of the stone. It is impossible for creatures to grow like this."
"This should be a quicksand belt, but it can be marked down. There may be microbial fossils in the quicksand."
"The lines and structures here are the same as those on the surface, and they should be salt ore; they can be spared."
"Wait, here... scan here for a moment!" Suddenly, the people who were observing the screen were shocked, because there was a contour here, and several types of ray scans almost all gave similar contours. They were not big, only a dozen centimeters, but they had the beauty unique to creatures, like a fish!
"I received it, I'm rescanning the place just now." The staff in the distance carefully scanned the place just now. They worked meticulously.
"Yes, this thing is definitely a creature!" Liu Haibo was a little excited. He marked the place and continued to scan.
The powerful ray exploration made the central area of this salt mine within a radius of 300 meters, and in the evening, it was completely exposed on the display screen. There were seven regular outlines of large and small sizes on the display screen, and they were outlines scanned by several rays. After analysis, this thing was more like a fish.
Liu Haibo walked quietly in the 7 marked positions. There was no rule, but it was only within a 50-meter range, so it was already relatively concentrated.
"Everyone sleeps in the car at night. We are not familiar with Mars. Before dawn, no one is allowed to go out!"
Mars in the evening is extremely beautiful, which is a beauty that cannot be seen on the earth. Of course, there is also monotonous loneliness! In the sky, the sun is still dazzling and does not turn fiery red like the earth; this is because the atmosphere is too thin, so even if the sun tilts west, its atmospheric thickness is not enough to block ultraviolet rays; so the sky on the uppermost layer of Mars is always blue, even in the early morning; even when it is cold in the early morning and evening, blue carbon dioxide clouds can occasionally be seen. Under such blue, there are two obvious colors of light red to red. This is the wind that never stops on Mars, and the dust blowing up.
Because Mars is a little smaller than the earth, he is used to seeing the endless world on the earth; in contrast, Mars' flat sandy plains have a faint, almost undetectable arc. This situation gives people an indescribable spectacle.
But the wind blows away the sand, and the beautiful scene, coupled with the undetectable arc, gives you a sense of loneliness and desolation. This is a planet of death!
Life is so good! Liu Haibo suddenly sighed like this. Even the planet can't stand the erosion of time, let alone people! Although his current practice is a bit strange, the boss even said that if he practices well, it will be no problem for seven or eight hundred years; but what about seven or eight hundred years later? Everyone has unrealistic ambitions. The only difference is that some people can see the reality clearly; while others are immersed in their own fantasies.
There was no words all night, and the world outside the car was a world of strong winds; when the next day the sun rose with the faint carbon dioxide clouds dyed blue by ultraviolet rays, a new day began again. Under the sunlight, the surface temperature rose rapidly, the carbon dioxide crystal particles quickly disappeared, and the sky of Mars turned into a light blue, with a little dark color. The darkness, of course, is the cosmic background exposed because the atmosphere is too thin and cannot scatter too much sunlight.
When everyone opened the car door, they were shocked by the world in front of them! In one night, the vehicle had been buried in the ground by red sand for half a meter depth, and the paint on the vehicle was completely mottled. In some places, especially around corners, the steel had been marked with ugly marks.
"Mars is more dangerous than Earth. Which madman said that he wanted to establish an immigration base on Mars? It is estimated that in three or five days, the base will either be covered with sand or polished into powder! Immigration to Mars is definitely the stupidest decision in the world!" Early in the morning, Ding Shiyou, the captain of the Fourth Team, began to complain.
"Fortunately, the expert company does not have this plan!" Liu Haibo responded with a smile; but there was still something else that was not said afterwards: Actually, you don't know, the boss is even more crazy, this inspection is just an effort to transform Venus!
Every time I think of my boss' crazy plan, my Liu Haibo trembles a little, but more excited trembles!
