I have a space station

February 11, 2057 AD, 9:00 AM.

A small-scale aerial combat exercise unfolded in the Ulan Gumuk region.

One side consisted of raw recruits from the base, while the other was a special operations team led by Zhang Yuan Kui.

The two sides exchanged attacks, creating a lively scene.

At the same time, a special spacecraft quietly increased its altitude and flew towards outer space.

Half an hour later, the ground-to-space spacecraft docked with the space station, and Dongfang Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The most dangerous step could be considered complete.

The material transfer robots in the space station quickly unloaded the light crystal panels and vibration crystals, directly distributing them to the nuclear-powered transport spacecraft in the secondary ring-shaped module.

In addition, the integrated control station produced by the primary ring-shaped module was also ready and could be loaded onto the ship at the same time.

Now that there were enough robots and they were working together efficiently, loading and unloading these materials was not a problem at all.

In two hours, all 18,000 miniature space transport spacecraft were fully loaded.

"Mr. Dongfang, the materials are ready, we can depart," Xiao Lin reported.

This was a historic moment, and even Mengka watched with unwavering attention.

"Alright, depart!" Dongfang Chen said solemnly.

"Command issued."

On the screen, in the secondary ring-shaped module of the space station, a group of miniature transport spacecraft flew out of their docking positions one by one, and then formed a queue outside the space station.

This scene was like a swarm of bees flying out of a beehive.

They were not large in size and were equipped with warp drive engines. With the powerful output of miniature nuclear-powered batteries, they could achieve extremely high acceleration.

Due to the low stability and high failure rate of electrical equipment, the designed speed of this miniature nuclear-powered transport spacecraft could only reach 500,000 kilometers per hour.

At this speed, it would take 10 days to reach near-solar orbit.

After all, it was a temporary measure, and he could fully accept this time frame.

The spacecraft quickly left Blue Star's orbit and flew towards the sun.

Now all that was left was to wait.

After the first batch of light-absorbing units was deployed, he did not plan to produce any more light crystal panels on the ground. The risk of transporting them back and forth was too high and not worth the gamble.

Now, he was pondering how to establish a light crystal panel production base on other planets.

To establish a base on other planets, the first step was to establish communication.

Currently, the space station could only communicate with Blue Star, and other planets could not be monitored.

To establish communication, it would be necessary to set up synchronous orbit satellites in the orbit of that planet and establish a supercomputing center on the ground for data processing.

Could the supercomputing center be directly set up on the satellite?

Of course, that was also possible, but firstly, the reliability would be lower, and secondly, expansion would be inconvenient.

In the short term, building them separately would be the most efficient and convenient to use.

Currently, the most suitable planet for establishing a production base was Mars.

In addition, now that the conditions were right, it was time to consider diversifying the eggs in the basket.

Currently, all the data of the Nata civilization was stored in the space station, and if it were destroyed, it would be devastating.

Therefore, since he was going to build a base on Mars, it was best to do it in one step.

"Xiao Lin, I am now planning to set up a new base on Mars and back up all the core data there. Draw up a plan to minimize the construction time."

"Okay, Commander. Should we consider establishing a human living area at the Mars base?" Xiao Lin asked.

"Not under consideration for the time being."

"Okay, analyzing."

"Commander, analysis complete. It will take at least one month," Xiao Lin quickly gave the result.

"Oh? How exactly will it work?" This time was much shorter than expected.

"Producing a Mars synchronous orbit communication satellite will take 2 days. Using the current miniature nuclear-powered transport spacecraft, transporting the satellite, the Queen Bee, and the vibration crystal to Mars will take 8 days."

"After the Queen Bee is deployed on Mars, building the supercomputing center will take about 20 days," Xiao Lin briefly reported.

"In other words, this plan can only be launched after waiting for the fully charged vibration crystal to be sent back?" Dongfang Chen asked.

"Yes," Xiao Lin replied.

At the current charging speed, a vibration crystal could be fully charged in 10 days.

But to get this vibration crystal, it would take about 40 days.

Because the transport spacecraft would take 20 days for a round trip, building the charging station would take 10 days, and charging would take 10 days.

"Alright. Then how will the data backup be implemented?" Dongfang Chen asked.

"Both the communication satellite and the Mars supercomputing center will use quantum communication. After the base is established, data can be silently synchronized in the background. In this case, the backup process will not require extra calculation time," Xiao Lin explained.

"Okay, let's do it that way. Now, produce the satellite and the Queen Bee first. As soon as the vibration crystal is transported back, we'll set off immediately," Dongfang Chen instructed.
