"We succeeded!"

"Now, our outside is Europa, more than 700 million kilometers away from the earth ... Over a period of time, it may become 800 million or more, in short."

"There is an atmosphere here, but it is not dense, and most of them are nitrogen. The colonial unit is operating well, the energy reserves are full, and the oxygen supply is OK. The next step is to send an all-terrain detection vehicle to investigate the terrain of Europa, Distribution of resources ... Hou Tao, how long will your kid spend! "

Roared towards the intercom, and soon an answer came from the other end.

"Checking the hydraulic stabilization system ... I ’ll be fine soon, give me five minutes."

"This lucky guy!" he whispered, and the astronaut turned around and continued to look at the camera and said, "According to the rules, we draw a lot to decide who will be the first to get on Europa. Although not comparable It was the first time to go to the moon and Mars, but it was also a big honor. I will cut the lens on the probe car in a while, and Hou Tao will continue to record ... "

After finishing the last sentence, the astronaut reached out and hit a few buttons on the touchpad to end the video recording.

According to the colonial propaganda strategy of Xinghuan Trade, all colonial activities will be recorded as videos, and will be sent to the Xinghuan Space Command Center for backup. After being edited by professionals, they will be published on the official website and open to broadcast, download, and Comments and other functions.

In order to ensure the recording effect, each colonial ship is usually equipped with a retired reporter, or someone with experience in photography-related industries. Although there are still many differences between this research ship and the colonial ship, at most it can only be regarded as a colonial outpost, but after all, it is the first time to board Europa, the commemoration is still quite significant, the survey ship is still It is equipped with a reporter who has three years of working experience in the New Country Broadcasting Company.

The screen quickly switched to the ATV.

The astronaut, about twenty-six or sixty years old, put on his helmet, gestured a pair of scissors with excitement to the screen, and then pressed the red button on the control interface.

This is his first colonial mission, and he has been training at the Astronaut Training Center on Anga Island before. He has been preparing for this day for more than a year, so he is very excited at the moment.

With the sound of an air leak, the door of the buffer compartment opened slowly, and the detection vehicle was driving under the throttle of his foot towards the unknown land.

The whole planet is very dark, the light from the sun is already weak, but Jupiter looks brighter. The place illuminated by the headlights is off-white or gray-black soil, while the other places are deep and dark.

Soon, he arrived at the first inspection point-a lake not far from the colony outpost, which was the landing point of the second probe.

This lake is not large, at least compared to the large lake at the south pole of Europa. The probe floated in the middle of the lake, and the recovery was too difficult, so the colonists did not intend to control it for the time being.

Parking the all-terrain detection vehicle not far from the lake, the astronaut named Hou Tao slowly jumped off the vehicle and walked carefully towards the lake. Unlike Mars, the gravity here is very low, and the cable must be pulled out of the car to avoid violent force when doing kangaroo jumps, which cannot float up and down.

Hydrocarbons are gases on Earth, but on the surface of the cold, bitter Europa, they appear to be liquid.

The methane-ethane liquid mixture is less viscous than water. If you swipe your hand through the lake of Europa, you will not feel the resistance like water.

All in all, it was a wonderful experience, but it ’s best not to put your hands in it for too long. Even if the spacesuit designed by Xinghuan Trading uses very advanced insulation materials, the heat scattering caused by the low-temperature fluid will still cause a large load on the spacesuit thermostat system.

Squatting by the lake, Hou Tao took out the sampler from the toolbox, quickly collected about 200ml of liquid in the lake, and then stuffed it into the car's sample storage box. These liquids will be brought back to the colonial unit for analysis to determine the composition and content of hydrocarbons in the lake.

Next, he collected about twenty soil samples and inserted a numbered flag on the ground. These soil samples are very helpful for investigating Europa ’s geological environment and resource distribution, and this is also their task for the next period of time.

The video data was received from the probe car, and the station master of the outpost edited it and sent the data back to the earth. After finishing all this, Lu Tao drove the detection vehicle back to the buffer cabin of the outpost. As the air pressure in the cabin was evacuated and refilled with air, he jumped from the vehicle and entered the disinfection room.

"The residual amount of radiation is normal."

"Amount of microorganisms attached ... Huh?"

During the inspection of microbial residues, Lu Tao unexpectedly discovered that there were tiny microbial residues on his soles.

"What is this stuff ..."

However, just when he wanted to further study what this microorganism is, he found that the bacteria on the sole of the foot had lost its activity through the microbial tester.

......

On the second day of the colonial capsule launch, Star Ring Trade published a video of landing on Europa on the official website.

Although I ’m not surprised at the aerospace technology of the Star Ring Trade, no matter how many times I watch it, it ’s like a scene from a science fiction movie.

The detector that was dropped first captured the entire image of the colony capsule landing. When watching the silver-white aerospace fall on the surface of Europa, netizens from all over the world exclaimed.

"Has the ring trade started to colonize Europa?"

"Where is Europa? My sense of direction is not very good, in short it is farther than Mars?"

"Nonsense."

"My God, I just want to know how many years they have left the solar system."

"I bet fifty years."

"Fifty years is too long! I bet twenty years."

Then the video showed that the probe car drove out of the colony cabin, and the scientific research personnel wearing spacesuits jumped off the car to complete a series of sampling work. This is also the first time Xinghuan Trade has been published on the official website.

It is not just netizens and astronomy enthusiasts who are following this video, some professional aerospace organizations like ESA, NASA, Aeroflot, etc. have also paid close attention to this video.

In particular, ESA, which is excluded.

There are very few countries in Europe that have joined the Earth Defense Alliance. This feeling of being excluded makes many people feel uneasy. Especially those aerospace workers who are struggling on the front line, they know what kind of negative impact this will have on the development of European aerospace technology, and they are very clear that Europe and the world will gradually become disconnected ...

However, the decision-making of the big people can be controlled by the scientific research workers?

"Star ring trade has already begun to colonize Europa? Did n’t they have just been on Mars for a long time? Hell, can they digest such a big project?"

"I do n’t know ... And I heard that the Star Ring Trade colonization plan also invited other members of the Earth Defense Alliance to join."

"What?!"

"I have asked the European Commission more than once to seriously consider the necessity of joining the Earth Defense Alliance, whether it is out of a joint response to the crisis, or from a development perspective. This is very necessary ... but I have not received any for the time being. Reply. "

"Damn, what the idiots are thinking."

"The ghost knows!"
