The day passed quickly, and the first batch of candidates also completed their tests.
Jiang Cheng was satisfied with the situation on the first day. The last thirty people met all the requirements and entered the final list.
This ratio is quite satisfactory to Jiang Cheng. If the situation continues as it is today, he will definitely be able to collect the quota of 500 people in the end.
What Jiang Cheng was most worried about at the beginning was that there were still no 500 qualified people among 300,000 people.
Fortunately, the quality of these candidates exceeded his expectations, and now it seems that personnel is no longer a problem.
The subsequent tests continued in an orderly manner. Some people successfully passed all the tests and could finally start astronaut training.
It can be said that these people have almost half of their feet in space, and as long as they train hard, there will basically be no problem.
Those who passed are all very excited now, waiting to officially start training after the test is completed.
Some people are happy, but others will be sad. Those who are eliminated will have no choice but to leave in the end and say goodbye to the astronaut profession.
Judging from the elimination rate of this test, I am afraid that the majority of people will be disappointed. Perhaps these people will recognize the reality after they fail and will not continue to dream in the future.
But no matter what, life has to go on, and even if I can't become an astronaut, it's not a big deal.
After more than ten days of intense and exciting testing, the selected list has finally been finalized.
Finally, there are five hundred lucky people on this list who can receive training that will start soon.
But that doesn't mean everything will be fine after passing the test. What awaits them is extremely rigorous training.
Just looking at the subjects studied can make people dizzy, and the physical training is indispensable throughout the day.
Those who cannot keep up with the training progress will eventually be eliminated.
As soon as the selection test is over, astronaut training officially begins.
This large astronaut training base finally welcomed its first batch of students.
In the future, new students will continue to join here, and it will eventually become an astronaut training center at Chengdu University.
Maybe the astronauts who go out here will fly to various parts of the universe in the future to carry out their respective missions.
In Jiang Cheng's opinion, this is the cradle of astronauts, and the future astronauts of mankind will depend on this place.
When the first batch of astronauts began training, Jiang Cheng left this training base.
Although spacecraft require a lot of manpower, the development of other aspects cannot be given up.
Otherwise, it would be quite embarrassing to wait until there are enough manpower to accelerate the spaceship, but the spaceship has not been built yet.
Jiang Cheng left for the future spacecraft manufacturing plan, because the Mars base is now completed.
The materials needed for the spacecraft can be obtained from Mars, and only Mars can provide sufficient sources of materials.
Therefore, Jiang Cheng cannot let go of matters on Mars. This is also a major issue related to whether the spacecraft can be built.
After Jiang Cheng left the astronaut training base, he went directly to the space mission center.
The construction progress of the Mars base is monitored here, and it is from here that the news of the completion of the construction comes to him.
The Mars base has been completely completed? Have all scheduled projects been completed
As soon as Jiang Cheng came back, he immediately found Xiao Peng and started asking him directly.
Xiao Peng has been here all this time, so it is right to ask him about the Mars base.
That's right, the Mars base has been completely completed, otherwise I wouldn't dare let you come back now.
All construction projects have been completely completed, and the living area test area and equipment area have all been officially put into operation.
The life support system is now functioning well and can provide basic survival requirements for the personnel in the base.
Xiao Peng knew the situation of the Mars base very well, so he could answer Jiang Cheng's questions in one sentence without having to check any data at all.
The ecological planting area has also begun work. It will not be long before it can start to provide a variety of food to meet the food needs of people on Mars.
When the time comes, we won’t have to continue transporting food and other supplies to Mars, which will free up a lot of transportation capacity to transport the equipment needed on Mars. "
People can't live without food. If you don't eat for a day, you will have no energy and you won't be able to sit still for anything.
Therefore, astronauts on Mars have to consume a lot of food every day.
All these foods were previously transported from the earth, so that they could sustain the needs of the astronauts.
At first, Jiang Cheng launched thirty rockets and flew to Mars with astronauts, equipment and materials.
These thirty rockets are only what is needed to build a Mars base. Supplies and consumables are not included.
So later Jiang Cheng launched twenty more rockets to Mars, all of which contained food and other supplies needed by astronauts, as well as some replacement parts and equipment.
Therefore, how important it is for the Mars base to provide its own food is worthy of Xiao Peng's special mention.
If Mars could produce its own food, it would save Jiang Cheng a lot of effort.
Now Jiang Cheng has a lot of free rockets, which can be used to transport other necessary equipment to Mars.
The Mars base cannot be just built. There are many expansion plans in the future, and a steady stream of transportation equipment and machines from the earth will be needed.
Perhaps when the Mars base is sufficiently complete, there will be no need to transport things there so frequently.
If Mars can manufacture all mechanical equipment, it can completely separate from the Earth and develop independently.
In this way, Jiang Cheng wouldn't have to spend so much effort to send things across a vast distance of space.
But this may be a long time ago. Now Jiang Cheng still needs to maintain the route from Earth to Mars.
Basically, Jiang Cheng launches more than ten rockets every month to bring necessary things to Mars.
This cosmic route seems extremely busy now, and rockets can be seen flying between Mars and the Earth from time to time.
These rockets also add some vitality to the silent solar system, which means that humans can finally move around in the solar system.
Although the current space flight is only from the Earth to Mars, it will definitely increase gradually in the future.
After Jiang Cheng starts developing other planets, the solar system will be filled with rockets, and the entire solar system will become hot.
However, it is not the time to develop other planets yet. The nearest Mars has just begun to be developed, and other more distant planets will still be in the queue.
Now that the Mars base has been completed, the astronauts on Mars can come back partially. "
