Bab 1272: Launching Ceremony

"The Envoy-class starship has a net weight of one million tons. Its main engine is a high-power nuclear fusion engine, with its secondary engines utilizing ion propulsion technology. Its maximum cruising speed, in theory, can reach one-thousandth of the speed of light. The relative distance of 100 million kilometers, the starship can reach Mars in a week in cruise mode." Jiang Chen stood in front of the window in the control tower as he gazed at the magnificent celestial ship; he looked proud.

Now the relative distance between Mars and Earth was still around tens of millions of kilometers, but by the beginning of the second half of this year, this distance would exceed the 100 million kilometers range.

Aside from the LightSail that could in theory reach one-fifth the speed of light, the Envoy-class would be the largest and fastest manned spacecraft in human history.

It was a glory to be able to witness this very moment.
