Ever since he developed the humanoid armor, Jiang Cheng has always wanted to make a real mecha, but he has been unable to start manufacturing it because of the lack of special materials like alpha crystals.
Now Jiang Cheng finally hopes to obtain a rare material, and of course he will not let go of such an opportunity.
It can be said that Jiang Cheng's main purpose for this exploration of Neptune is to find Alpha results.
Jiang Cheng would be even happier if he could find other rare materials.
But now these are all empty talk. Before the results come out, no one can explain this kind of thing clearly.
Now that the probe has successfully landed on Neptune, the next step is the official detection.
However, before the detector detects Neptune, it is necessary to check the current situation of the detector.
Although the detector has now sent back images of Neptune, it does not mean that everything in the detector is normal.
This just means that if the external camera is normal, we don’t know if there is a problem with the most important scanning device.
After a landing, no one knew whether there was any problem with the probe.
If there is a problem with the scanning device, the detection does not have to continue.
So Jiang Cheng was in the bridge and issued his orders to all Ruo's crew members.
"Give a self-inspection command to the detector to check whether the detector was damaged during the landing process.
Understood, start the self-test procedure immediately. one of the crew members replied.
It didn't take long for the detector on Neptune to send back the results of this self-examination.
After all the data is analyzed, it is projected onto the light curtain in the center of the bridge.
Jiang Cheng took a look at the data on Guangmu and knew that everything was normal with the detector.
It seems that Ruolu went very smoothly this time, and the detector did not suffer any damage at all.
Since there are no problems with the detector, detection can officially begin.
"Start detection immediately and let the detector scan the entire Neptune
Following Jiang Cheng's issuance of the order, the detector immediately started operating.
Detailed data on Neptune is being continuously transmitted back to the Pioneer.
The terrain structure under the ice on Neptune's surface and the distribution of minerals in the deep layers are continuously sent back from the detector.
The detector continuously moved its position while scanning the situation under the ice.
At this time, the spherical appearance of the detector comes into play. On Neptune,
In the violent storm on the surface, the detector relied on its spherical appearance to maintain sufficient stability.
The probe moves at high speed on Neptune and continuously sends back a large amount of detailed data. Just after the detector was officially put into operation, Jiang Cheng was no longer prepared to stay here.
This trial voyage was only half completed, and the journey back to Earth was still waiting for them.
Let the detector operate on Neptune, and we are ready to go back now."∥.
Now that the detector is operating normally, Jiang Cheng is ready to return with the Pioneer.
The detection of Neptune cannot be completed in a short time. This detection will last several months.
Rare materials like alpha crystals cannot be found all at once.
So Jiang Cheng prepared to return to Earth first and wait for the probe to slowly search for Neptune.
"Target Earth, prepare to return!
Following Jiang Cheng's return order, the Pioneer began to accelerate again and slowly left Neptune.
Neptune, the outermost planet in the solar system, has once again returned to its former calm after experiencing a brief period of excitement.
Perhaps the detector on the surface of Neptune made the planet start to look different.
Jiang Cheng's departure from the well this time is not a permanent farewell. It all depends on the results of the detection.
If Neptune is found to possess some rare materials, Jiang Cheng will visit here again.
At that time, Jiang Cheng will lead Ruo Ruo to mine on this planet with a harsh environment.
Rare substances like Alpha Knot are still very attractive to Jiang Cheng, even to the point of mining them at all costs.
But now Jiang Cheng has no time to care about rare materials. He still has to command the Pioneer to start their journey back to Earth.
The Pioneer's return journey is not much different from when it arrived. First of all, the Pioneer also needs to accelerate for a period of time before it can reach its highest speed.
When the speed of the spacecraft reaches half the speed of light, it will take several hours of flight before Jiang Cheng and the others can return to Earth.
Half the speed of light is the highest speed in the solar system. The energy consumed by continuing to accelerate is so great that even fusion reactors cannot provide it.
If the spacecraft wants to continue to increase its speed, it can only turn on the curvature guidance to shorten the space.
But in places like the inner solar system, the sun has too much mass, so it generates too much gravity.
Such a large gravitational force has exceeded the safety limit and cannot activate the curvature engine.
The troublesome part of navigating within the star system is here, it is impossible to use curvature guidance at all.
If Jiang Cheng forcibly turns on the curvature in the solar system, the space folds may change due to gravity.
At that time, due to space shock, the entire spacecraft will be torn into pieces.
Although Jiang Cheng's physical fitness is very good, space shock will tear apart all materials. Even if Jiang Cheng's body is harder than diamond, it will not take a second to break into pieces.
Although Jiang Cheng likes to take risks, he would not do such a thing that would seek death.
If the Pioneer wants to activate curvature guidance and increase its speed to ten times the speed of light, it must leave the gravitational range of the solar system.
When the spacecraft starts its curvature flight, the Zhou Kingdom cannot have celestial bodies with huge masses like stars.
This is already the consensus of all civilizations in the universe, and it is also a common law among civilizations.
Generally, when conducting ultra-long distance voyages between galaxies, the mode adopted is to first use the speed of the spacecraft itself, fly out of the star system, and then conduct curvature flight.
In this way, accidents can be avoided during curvature flight, and at the same time, navigation efficiency can be ensured to the greatest extent.
If Jiang Cheng wants to go to Proxima Centauri, he must first fly out of the solar system to Fan State at half the speed of light.
Then turn on the curvature engine and fly four light years at ten times the speed of light.
After the spacecraft arrived at the Zhou Kingdom of Bibu Star, it turned off the curvature guidance again and flew to this star system at its own speed.
But now Jiang Cheng has no interest in going to the extremely harsh star system of Proxima Centauri.
Let’s talk about this kind of thing later. Jiang Cheng only thinks about returning to Earth now.
