The first thousand and twenty-seven chapters
"But... this is metal hydrogen. Although it can be produced with the strength of our company, it is too costly and cannot be produced on a large scale." Wang Lei said, "Even if we cannot obtain metal hydrogen this time, at least we have to confirm that Jupiter does have such a thing? If you just go in and go around, it seems that there is no danger."
Chen Bing hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement.
The distance of millions of kilometers is an insurmountable gap for others on Earth, but for Hope, it is just a voyage of less than half an hour - this is still not at the sub-light speed.
Far away, a huge planet appeared in the vision of every crew member on Hope.
Before this, they had been notified that Hope was about to arrive at Jupiter and would enter the interior of Jupiter for exploration.
So they all squeezed into a place with windows and experienced the first time humans were watching Jupiter up close.
In fact, at this moment, they were no longer as excited as before. After all, they had just landed on Mars a few days ago, and almost everyone had experienced walking on Mars.
In this case, the beautiful reporter Xiao Ran is naturally indispensable.
"Dear viewers, our spacecraft is moving at a speed of 10,000 kilometers per second at this moment, and right in front of us is the familiar Jupiter. That's right, the colorful guy is Jupiter. You may think that what we see is the surface of Jupiter? Actually, this is not the case. According to what I just learned, everything on Jupiter is actually in a state of gas. According to the current inference in the field of astronomy, it is believed that Jupiter is likely to have a stone core, but this has not been verified yet. This trip to Jupiter will unveil this mystery."
"The spacecraft is slowing down now! Since Huanxian Technology uses the spacecraft's advanced gravity control technology on this spacecraft, we cannot feel the huge inertia caused by slowing down at all." Xiao Ran continued, "I have to say that Huanxian Technology is indeed a company that creates miracles."
Outside the porthole, the colorful planet was growing larger at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a few minutes, the view of a porthole could no longer accommodate the entire planet.
"You may not imagine that the temperature outside is as low as minus 100 degrees Celsius, but in our cabin, it is still as warm as spring - just this morning, I just had a delicious meal of scrambled eggs with tomatoes."
Xiao Ran's humorous commentary has already penetrated into the hearts of every audience.
Although most people on Earth are now addicted to the "Sky" game, they still watch the news every day, and the live broadcast of this Hope Account is also one of the must-see content.
Every audience member was attracted by the charming scene transmitted back by the Hope.
After a moment, the entire Hope came a little bump...
However, the people on the spacecraft did not feel panic at all.
Xiao Ran said: "Everyone, the bump just now is because our Hope has entered Jupiter's atmosphere. Well, in fact, it is not so accurate to say that it is Jupiter's atmosphere, because Jupiter is a gas giant planet, and the planet is the atmosphere, and the atmosphere is also the planet. At the same time, Jupiter's gravity is almost three times that of the earth. In addition, its main component is gas relationship, the air flow it produces is more complex and majestic, so our Hope will have bumps."
The scene outside is extremely magnificent, as if colorful aurora are floating in the dark night sky.
This kind of "aura" not only exists in the sky, but is located in all directions.
Being in it is like entering a fairy tale world.
"This is Jupiter!"
"It turns out that week that looks like a wooden ball is so beautiful. It's a pity that this planet is not suitable for living, otherwise it would be a place to live."
"Brain-dead! It's pretty good to appreciate this place occasionally. If you really want to live here forever, you will definitely get mentally ill."
No matter how others comment, the crew members on the Hope are intoxicated by the beautiful scenery in front of them, even the dedicated Xiao Ran is no exception.
But there was a group of people who were not affected by the scene outside at all at this moment.
They are the researchers on Hope.
Wang Lei directed a group of subordinates, who were busy collecting various data about Jupiter on the one hand, and was also doing related research on the other hand.
Although Huanxian Technology has strong scientific research capabilities, some environments cannot be simulated by human resources, especially the environment they are currently in, which cannot be formed on the earth.
Therefore, such an opportunity is very rare.
Just like the International Space Station before, many scientific research institutions wanted to stuff their projects in. Wang Lei also had the same experience. After confirming that he was the head of scientific research on this Hope Universe Journey, the heads of various research groups of Shen Bing came to him. Anyway, as long as it was a difficult and complicated issue, they would be stuffed into his hands.
This also made Wang Lei and his group of people have no time to spare since the launch of Hope.
Wang Lei kept wandering among various project teams and gave them guidance from time to time.
Of course, while giving guidance, all aspects of data will also be gathered into his mind.
With his brain that has taken Lingqiao Pill, these data are not only unforgettable, but can also be analyzed and summarized in real time. By grasping the research directions of various scientific research groups, these scientific researchers can avoid many detours.
On the other side, Chen Bing was also busy.
He was staring at the screen in front of him with all his attention.
On the screen, there were strange scenes, which were somewhat similar to what other crew members saw through the porthole.
At this time, the speed of the spacecraft had dropped to the extreme, maintaining a speed of almost a few hundred kilometers per hour.
A hatch door slowly opened, and a small fighter plane flew out in an instant.
The small fighter was improved based on the original A2 fighter. It not only has extremely fast flight speed, but also has strong attack capabilities.
This strength is not something that can be said to be fun, nor is it compared with the so-called advanced fighter jets on the earth. Its target is a powerful weapon similar to ion cannons.
It is the latest achievement of the military project team. The head of the project team gave it a relatively resounding name: Hawk Falcon.
Now Chen Bing sent these two hawks to fight, but to explore Jupiter's situation and explore the way for Hope.
The falcon was extremely fast and disappeared from sight in an instant.
Well, the view here is not very big.
Hydrogen, helium, and these completely invisible gases play a role in blocking vision on Jupiter.
This is normal, because the low temperature and high pressure here cause the gas density to be extremely high. If you go deeper, you may encounter liquid hydrogen.
Not only that, the powerful magnetosphere, turbulence, and storms make the surrounding environment bizarre. Do you want to see further? That's completely nonsense.
Chen Bing can only maintain contact through the communication system between the spacecraft and the hawk.
This kind of contact is just the image and data sent back by the Eagle and Falcon, and at the same time, the soldiers issued some instructions.
The control of the Eagle itself is not done by humans. It is just a drone with intelligent modules installed. This level of automation is indeed not a difficult task for Huanxian Technology.
"Warning! The intensity of magnetic storm continues to increase, and communication interference is serious!"
"Back!" Chen Bing immediately issued an order, he did not want unexpected situations.
Anyway, the Hawk has already explored the area thousands of kilometers forward, which is enough for Hope to move forward for a distance.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the screen instantly freezes.
"Warning! Passage is interrupted! Eagle Falcon 1 is missing, Eagle Falcon 2 is missing! Automatically reconnect..."
"Connection failed..."
“Try again…”
"The connection failed!"
Chen Bing's face was a little unfavorable. The two falcons lost contact, which was not good news.
Although the falcon is extremely fast and the falcon has strong combat power, it is impossible to deny the fact that its flight positioning is based on Hope. Without Hope as a navigation beacon, the falcon will become blind.
"Captain, what should I do now?" Chen Bing's assistant Ke Yu asked.
Chen Bing said: "Waiting in place! The Eagle Falcon has an artificial intelligence system, which can remember the route it flew, and hopes it can fly back along the route it went to."
In fact, Chen Bing was not sure when he said this.
He was very clear about the situation outside. The complex and changeable airflow conditions did not have the possibility of being recognized by memory. There was also the strong magnetic storm, which could not destroy the flying direction identification device of the falcon, but it was inevitable that the error would be caused.
Even if it is just a slight error, it can miss the Hawk and Hope over thousands of kilometers.
...
On the quiet moon, several lonely electric-charged particle cannons stand in the wilderness, and the black ground provides it with a good protection color.
In the direction facing the muzzles of the electric-charged particle cannons, the originally calm light curtain suddenly rippled, as if it was thrown into a lake with a small stone.
Then, the ripples became bigger and bigger, as if they were thrown into them were no longer small stones, but large stones.
The light curtain seemed to be gradually expanding with the surging waves. In a few minutes, the light curtain had increased by more than ten times, and its diameter was even more than a hundred meters.
At this time, the center of the light curtain suddenly became dark.
It wasn't the light curtain there that disappeared, but a black thing was emerging from the light curtain.
The emergence is conical, the tip is very small, but the back is getting bigger and bigger.
Slowly, its small half of its body struggled out of the light curtain, and its shape was no different from the alien warships that had visited the earth before.
Almost at the same time, light was condensed on the top of a charged particle cannon below. Without any visual impact, the attack of the charged particle cannon was completed.
The only thing that changed was that there was a large hole with a diameter of three meters at the head of the alien warship that had just emerged.
Chapter completed!
