Chapter 309: Gravitational acceleration, start!
"Captain, it's time." Just as he was thinking, Dr. Li Cheng from the secretary's office reminded.
"Understood."
Seeing that the space elevator was carrying the last batches of people into Kunlun Mountain, Zhang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, then walked in front of the reporter.
The parting words before departure can be said to be a custom, not only the 8 million people in Kunlun Mountains, but also the final farewell to the 6 million people left in the surface base.
"Ladies and gentlemen," he said solemnly on television. "
If we're going to be a truly great civilization, we've got to do our best to be a bigger part of the universe. Not cowardly Hide on your own planet. Yes, this step is very difficult, really difficult. Cowards, lazy people, people who are skeptical of the wandering plan, people who have lost their fighting spirit and self-control ability, ignorant people, and There are those insensitive people who cannot feel the great encouragement of steadfast people..." "
All these people, of course, are afraid to see their civilization assume new responsibilities, afraid to see us carry out what seems to be nothing. Wandering plan for benefits! Afraid to see us take on more obligations in the universe, afraid to see our brave soldiers and possible star wars" "...
if we don't participate in this kind of life and civilization, everything must be gained If there is fierce competition for victory, civilizations that are more savage and powerful than ours will leave us far behind, and they can easily destroy us and control us. Even like the Gliese civilization, they don't even know that they are dead."
" Therefore, let us bravely face the challenges of the future, resolve to fulfill our duties with manliness, and uphold justice with our oaths and actions...Only through arduous and dangerous struggles can we achieve our goal of civilization and progress! "
At this moment, everyone looked serious, and some people had red eyes, excited emotions, and blood surging.
A determined look flashed in Zhang Yuan's eyes: "...we must not play the role of the Gliese civilization, nor the role of the earth civilization. If we repeat their mistakes, be complacent, and covet the peace and enjoyment in our own territory , Gradually hatch and degenerate, have no interest in the stories of the Milky Way, indulge in luxury, forget the noble life of hard work and adventure, and are busy all day long to satisfy the temporary desires of our flesh..." "Then, there is
no Doubt, one day we will become a mediocre civilization like them..." "
In a long time, we will be eliminated by the entire universe.
" You who are here."
Speaking of this, Zhang Yuan took a deep breath: "Kunlun Mountain Fleet, set off!"
A huge fleet, including a super mothership, 23 "Haiyan-class" frigates, 3 The "Falcon-class" guided missile destroyer officially set sail.
Bright ion flames burst out from the starry sky. This should be the last time Kunlun Mountain will be in this starry sky.
Not a drill.
Eight million astronauts, looking at the familiar human base under their feet, wept, mourned, and cheered up.
Just like that, I left...
Just
like that, six months passed in a blink of an eye, and the entire hibernation work arrangement was proceeding in an orderly manner.
Although Kunlun Mountain is designed to support the normal life of tens of millions of people, in order to be able to operate for a long time and save resources, it still implements the work and rest system of "normal life for two years and dormancy for eighteen years".
In other words, for a 50-year voyage, the time that people can feel is about five years, which is quite acceptable.
The number of sobers remained at 800,000 for a long time.
800,000 can be regarded as the population of a small and medium-sized city, and it is enough to maintain the normal operation of all walks of life and the maintenance of the entire spaceship.
Here is a "Falcon-class" destroyer, about 5,000 kilometers away from the front of Kunlun Mountain.
With Kunlun Mountain as the core of the entire fleet, the ring team is deployed, and their spaceship is flying at the forefront.
"Hey, actually, after living this kind of life for a long time, it will seem a bit boring... I haven't seen a single meteorite." Several soldiers were calibrating the data of the queue in the observation room.
This kind of destroyer guarantees combat effectiveness. Of course, there is no so-called circular living area, so it is not so comfortable to live in. It is necessary to ensure a certain amount of exercise time every day to reduce muscle atrophy.
"What's boring? It's normal not to see meteorites. Is there a one-in-a-billion chance of seeing meteorites... We are here to escort, just to prevent small probability events." "Interstellar travel is like this. It is said that the
first In ancient times, we sailed for three thousand years!"
Speaking of this matter, all the soldiers still admired it, three thousand years, it is a desperate number when you think about it, the average life expectancy of people is less than three thousand years. But now, a voyage only lasts fifty or sixty years.
The goal of this voyage is "187j3x2", a blue dwarf star 5.2 light-years away. Theoretically, there is no environment suitable for living things, but who knows... The reason why people choose
this planet is because... it is Along this cosmic string, the nearest star.
Of course, this voyage is always meaningful, whether it is a close-up study of blue dwarfs, or as a long-distance voyage test, if you don't try the first time, how can there be a second time later, the second time? Three times.
5.2 light-years is an acceptable distance. If there is a public mutiny or other small-probability accidents, you can still struggle to return.
Even if it's not very likely...
"In fact, living in Kunlun Mountains is no different from the surface of the planet. I really want to eat the Yile Ramen inside and add a little beef sauce." How many resources does your spaceship have? It's completely different."
At this moment, the two suddenly heard a cough from behind, and quickly stopped chatting.
It is Li Junkang, the captain of Falcon 1.
Li Junkang glanced at the data on the screen, the starry sky outside was always so dark, as if it hadn't changed since ancient times. Over the years, he has been promoted from a former soldier to the captain of this destroyer.
With great power comes great responsibility.
The whole voyage lasted six months, and there was always some weariness. Hearing the chat between the two, he didn't blame too much, but instead said: "Okay, everyone, stop talking a few words, the official mission is about to be carried out. 20,000 kilometers ahead, is the location of the cosmic string?"
The current speed of the spacecraft is not fast, after all, it only relies on its own engine for propulsion, and the speed is about 32 kilometers per second.
"Report Captain, in theory, there are still 19,089 kilometers left."
The screen showed that there was nothing in the cosmic space, and the so-called cosmic strings seemed to be hidden in another dimension...
After all, it is a one-dimensional space The structure, if it wasn't for scientific instruments scanning back and forth many times, it would be impossible for people to find it accurately.
"Have you observed the trajectory of meteorites around?"
"We have activated large flares, and have not observed the existence of meteorites with a diameter of more than 20 centimeters."
Li Junkang nodded and commanded: "Notify other spacecraft that we have arrived. After entering the predetermined area, calibrate the route, and return to Kunlun Mountain in turn. The gravitational acceleration work will officially start in 15 minutes."
" Order received!"
This series of notifications quickly conveyed to the entire queue, including the mothership Kunlun Mountain in the middle.
All the escort spacecraft turned on their engines and remounted on the edge of Kunlun Mountain.
Gravitational acceleration, let's go!
