Soon, a staff member reported to Jiang Cheng the current situation of the Pioneer.
It seems that now the Pioneer has set its course towards Neptune, and the rest is waiting for the end of the voyage.
"Very good, keep accelerating!
Jiang Cheng sat on the captain's seat, nodded slightly and said he understood the current situation.
Check the current status of energy protection.
Jiang Cheng then issued another order, asking the crew to check the energy protection device.
The energy shield is the protective layer of the Pioneer. Without this shield, Jiang Cheng would really not dare to take the spaceship to a place as far away as Neptune.
There seems to be nothing in outer space, and it is so empty that it is deathly silent.
But in this seemingly empty space, you may encounter dangerous situations at any time.
If there is no protection from the ability shield, all it takes is a small meteorite to hit.
The Pioneer will suffer huge losses, and maybe the entire spacecraft will be lost in space.
Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of the Pioneer, Jiang Cheng is still very concerned about the energy shield.
Soon a crew member went to conduct testing and reported the situation of the energy shield to Jiang Cheng.
The energy protection of the spacecraft is 100% complete, the output power has always been stable, and no part of it has suffered any impact.
It seems that Jiang Cheng's luck was quite good this time when he came out for the trial voyage. He didn't even encounter a meteorite.
"Very good, continue to monitor and report to me immediately if there is any situation.
After caring about everything about the spaceship, Jiang Cheng picked up a glass of iced drink and enjoyed it on the captain's seat.
This time, Jiang Cheng can be said to have successfully overcome the cancer of being a captain and experienced the feeling of commanding a spaceship.
The feeling of commanding a huge spaceship and traveling in space was quite good, which made Jiang Cheng feel a little disappointed.
Jiang Cheng felt very good, but the other person next to him felt bad.
The real captain standing next to him felt a sense of humiliation in his heart.
Jiang Cheng came over and directly occupied his position, not to mention taking over the command.
Now the captain of the Pioneer is just like Jiang Cheng, there is nothing wrong with him as the real captain.
The most outrageous thing was that Jiang Cheng took the ice drink and drank it, completely ignoring himself standing next to him.
The captain of the Pioneer was very excited to finally be able to command the spacecraft before setting off.
As a result, after the Pioneer actually set off, Jiang Cheng completely ignored him as the captain and directly took over the command of the spacecraft, and began to pull away from his own captain.
Except for the initial order to start the spacecraft, all other orders were issued by Jiang Cheng.
As a result, the crew now report directly to Jiang Cheng, eliminating the need for him, the captain, to relay the information.
This cruel reality made the captain despair of his first voyage.
Jiang Cheng is the real boss here. He, the captain, is nothing compared to Jiang Cheng.
In the end, the real captain of the Pioneer could only stand aside and watch, watching Jiang Cheng commanding the Pioneer.
While the real captain of the Pioneer was secretly feeling sad, Jiang Cheng continued to direct the work of the entire spacecraft.
I saw Jiang Cheng put the ice drink in his hand next to the seat, and then gave orders to the crew around Ruo
Report the current speed of the spacecraft, as well as the current acceleration.
What Jiang Cheng is most concerned about now is the speed of the spacecraft. Speed determines the time it takes to reach Neptune.
The sooner the spacecraft accelerates to its maximum speed, the sooner it will reach Neptune.
The Pioneer cannot reach half the speed of light from the beginning. The spacecraft needs a continuous acceleration process before it can reach the maximum speed it can withstand.
During this acceleration process, the Pioneer will slowly climb from the second cosmic speed to a higher speed, eventually reaching half the speed of light.
The second cosmic speed is 11 kilometers per second. This speed is the necessary speed to escape the gravity of the earth.
If it cannot reach this speed, the aircraft will not be able to leave the earth's orbit.
The Pioneer's acceleration capability is still very powerful. When it first arrived in the Earth's orbit, it had already accelerated to the second cosmic speed and slowly left the Earth's orbit.
Now as the speed of the spacecraft continues to increase, it is getting further and further away from the earth.
If you look at the Earth from the Pioneer, you will find that the Earth is getting smaller and smaller, and will eventually become an inconspicuous dot in the universe.
Because the earth is just a non-luminous planet, after a certain distance away from the earth, the earth may not be visible from the spacecraft.
When the Earth disappeared from the sight of the crew, it was time for the Pioneer to officially embark on its journey to Neptune.
Now the Pioneer has just left the earth, and this trial voyage has just begun.
The Pioneer, which has just left Earth, has exceeded the speed of the second universe, but it is still too slow compared to the entire journey.
Despite the fact that the speed of the second universe is already very fast, 11 kilometers per second is simply unimaginable, and it only takes about an hour to circle the Earth's equator.
But compared to the distance from the earth to Neptune, this speed is simply a speed that is not worth mentioning.
Taking the Pioneer's maximum speed without using a curvature engine as an example, half of the speed of light is 150,000 kilometers per second.
Compared with the speed of 11 kilometers per second in the second cosmic speed, it is not an order of magnitude at all compared to the speed of 150,000 kilometers per second.
This shows that the Pioneer's speed must be increased countless times before it can reach its top speed.
Fortunately, the galaxy-class engine loaded on the Pioneer is very powerful, and its acceleration capability far exceeds that of any other engine.
The propulsion provided by the galaxy-class engine to the spacecraft can allow the Pioneer to accelerate to the highest speed it can reach in a very short time.
Not long after the Pioneer set off, its speed had already increased many times, far exceeding the initial speed.
According to the test results on the spacecraft, the speed of the spacecraft now reaches three thousand kilometers per second.
Engine performance was also applied.
If the engine were not powerful enough, it would not have accelerated to such a terrifying speed in such a short period of time.
What kind of speed is three thousand kilometers per second? If the entire speed can be maintained, it will take less than a few seconds to cross the entire Yan Kingdom.
It doesn’t take long to get to any place on earth. For humans, it’s like teleporting.
After hearing about the current speed, Jiang Cheng asked another question: "How long will it take to accelerate to the limit? The current speed is still too slow.
