Advanced Players in Arc

After two days of acceleration, the "Yuanxian" spacecraft finally entered cruising speed. At this time, the spacecraft had already flown out of the Earth-Moon system and headed towards Mars.

After the spacecraft reaches cruising speed, the crew no longer need to be affected by acceleration, and the interior of the spacecraft is also extremely stable, so the crew has more activities.

If you should start experimenting, do it, and don't waste time on the road. After all, humans have never been to such a distant space environment, and they need to understand various situations.

Physical experiments, chemical experiments, biological experiments, and of course my favorite vegetable growing experiments, etc., are all being carried out in various laboratories.

The entertainment room, fitness room, etc. in the simulated gravity area are also very busy.

Although it is a large ship more than two hundred meters long, after excluding the space occupied by the huge engine, nuclear fusion energy device, and various mechanical devices, the number of forty people is still a lot for the remaining space.

Now that you can move freely, your interaction with the earth will begin. In this closed and far away environment, interacting with the earth is also a way to relieve psychological pressure.

Before they have flown too far and the delay in information exchange between the two parties is not too long, the Arc Light Space Command Center has arranged two more live broadcasts. The astronauts will even choose some barrage questions to answer, although at this time it has already There is some delay, but the impact is not big and it is acceptable.

Later, when the "Yuanxian" flew farther, there were fewer live broadcasts, but the astronauts were still asked to choose a time period to record the video, and then sent it back to the Arc Light Command Center, and Arc Light Aerospace would put it on the official website , to satisfy the curiosity of outsiders about the Mars project.

"...This is my favorite place, the kitchen located in the simulated gravity area. Our three chefs are cooking now. They are all very powerful nutritionists and chefs. They are responsible for 40 of us. Food."

"Although a large part of our food is space food that is ready to eat out of a bag or a can, some of which can be eaten after heating, and some can be eaten after opening, but our chefs still make several freshly cooked dishes every day. The dishes, this will make us full of energy every day, haha, wave to our chefs and thank them for giving us food, they are my favorite people here."

"You know, before the emergence of arc-light spaceflight, it was impossible for other spacecrafts to cook like this because there was no gravity in their spacecrafts. Even cooking, let alone cooking, was risky."

"Speaking of which, I just want to take you to our vegetable patch...oh, no, no, it's the plant culture laboratory. It's a very magical place."

"But the plant laboratory is not here. After all, areas with gravity in space are still very precious, so those plants are in a cabin in the middle of the spacecraft. I will take you to see..."

Each time a video is recorded, a different person will be used, because everyone has different hobbies, so the things they care about and the perspective of looking at the problem are also different, so that the video can be displayed more comprehensively.

As for the people on Earth who are paying attention to this matter, they see new things every time they watch the video. They are very happy and leave messages on it to ask questions.

Because when they are not broadcasting live, the astronauts on the "Yuanxian" will answer several questions in the previous video when recording the next video.

This makes people have extraordinary expectations for this trip to Mars.

"I really want to go to Mars. Why can't I be selected as an astronaut? I have submitted my resume to ArcLight Aerospace several times. Isn't it said that they have the lowest threshold for recruiting astronauts?"

"Maybe it's because the zodiac signs are not compatible. I didn't choose it either, but I only voted twice. I didn't vote if I felt like I couldn't choose."

"Hey! Are there so many people here who have submitted their resumes? I have also submitted my resume. This is my first time. I am waiting for the news...Wait a minute, the notification just came. I passed it. Submit it first, and we will talk later!"

"I... I'm so enviable. I feel like the life of an astronaut is so good. I can ride on a spaceship, eat so well every day, and explore mysterious planets. It's great!"

"What's better? After the arc light space flight, the situation of astronauts in space got better. Just like what was said in the video before, you have to be careful when eating, because there is no gravity, so many things can't be done It’s all very difficult.”

"Urge for an update! Urge for an update! It's too short and it's over before I even watch it. When will the next video be updated? Will there be a live broadcast later? When will we get to Mars???"

"Awesome, I sent you three questions in a row. By the way... Same as above! Urgent update!"

"…………"

In this way, February 2021 was basically packed with news about the Arc Light Group. When you open the web and TV, you can basically see the Arc Light Group.

First, at the beginning of the month, it started with the drama of "Six major factions besieging Guangmingding". However, it seemed that those companies had obtained some of the Arclight Group's markets, but it didn't seem to be of much use. And later, because of the gap between the publicity and the actual products, consumers were a little confused. Disappointed, I don’t know if this is a loss or a gain.

In the middle of the month, the Arc Light Group's military exercise also shocked the world. This was the first time that the Arc Light Group had formally displayed its armed forces, allowing the world to see what a different private group is.

And there are some rumors circulating privately. For example, this exercise was actually shown to the United States by the Arclight Group, and then the United States gave in and sold Musk Aerospace.

At the end of the month, there was another major event like the Mars Project. The United States had been talking about landing on the moon for decades, which shows how influential landing on alien planets is.

This time, the Arc Light Group wants to land on Mars, a distant planet that often appears in people's entertainment and life. This incident has a great impact on mankind.

This makes people realize that the scenes in science fiction movies are becoming a reality, interstellar travel and interstellar immigration are no longer dreams, and the earth is undergoing earth-shaking changes.

It is precisely because there are more and more news about the Arc Light Group, and the more it shows itself, the more powerful it becomes, this has also led to the United States launching their bold plan.

After entering March, the "Tutatis" project led by NASA has made very obvious progress.

At the end of February, they completed the design of the smart thruster in just a few days and named the smart thruster "Hercules".

The reason why it is so fast is because, as Victor said, technology is ready-made technology. As long as the correct technology is put into the right place and the entire system is integrated, it will be completed.

And in March, the U.S.'s technological and manufacturing strength was reflected at the critical moment. After all, they were able to build 50 aircraft carriers in one year.

Of course, the situation they faced at that time was different, and it was also a period when they were concentrating their efforts on doing big things. Now they are much different.

But that's it. Before the "Yuanxian" reached Mars, its thrusters were almost completed.

In mid-March, the plan to manufacture 40 Hercules thrusters was 90% complete.
