Wandering Spaceship in Deep Space Chapter 101: Postcard
As a member of the scientific expedition team, Zhang Yuan was the first person to land on Europa.
He stepped down the space elevator cautiously and wandered on the ice cap of Europa. In the dark sky, only a few lights flickered. These permafrost ice layers have never melted since they appeared, and they have a history of at least one billion years.
When you look up, you can see the overwhelming Jupiter.
is really overwhelming. Its size is about 23.5 times the size of the earth when it sees the moon. It is visible to the naked eye, and the surface of Jupiter has wood-like patterns one after another.
Sometimes I can see the famous, dark red big red spots, like a huge eye, watching them quietly.
If someone is afraid of ghost stories, seeing this real blood moon, they may be scared to death.
Zhang Yuan took a few photos with interest.
The reason for choosing the side of the tide lock as the base is that this place is less likely to be attacked by meteorites.
Jupiter, this big guy, has cleaned up countless meteorites for the inner planets of the solar system. With Jupiter as a shield, the probability of the Earth being hit by meteorites is much smaller, providing a more favorable environment for the formation of life.
But Europa is not so lucky. Living here has greatly increased the probability of being hit by a meteorite.
The entire base is also equipped with the most powerful helium-3 nuclear bomb to withstand possible meteorites. No way, who makes Jupiter the most important nuclear fuel depot?
"Dear friends from afar, welcome to Europa Industrial Base. The very edge of human space deployment." A middle-aged man in a space suit stood at the gate of the base and greeted everyone with a smile.
Then, he shook hands with the captain again.
Academician Ding turned his head and said to Zhang Yuan: "Let's go, this alien base may be similar to our future deployment...but you have to take a look."
"I have a few old friends here who want to visit, are you going with me, or are you free to move?"
Zhang Yuan thought for a while, "I also have an elder who wants to visit. Let me act freely for now!"
"Then see you this afternoon."
The first thing Zhang Yuan did when he walked into Europa base was to eat a barbecue meal!
The smell of barbecue makes him drool, and the anticipation of saliva secretion is like doing a math problem!
Even if the taste is not as good as the feast on earth, it is not synthetic meat anyway.
Europa base, compared to the take-off ship, it is simply heaven!
"Yes, really good! The turbulence problem is solved by you!" The middle-aged man sitting across from him was a former colleague of his father. He gave him a thumbs up and praised him again and again.
"Uncle Yuan, just luck. A numerical simulation method, in fact, has not completely solved it..." Zhang Yuan smiled embarrassedly.
"Luck? It depends on strength! Do you think I don’t know how to do it? There are many applications of turbulence, from astronomy to geography. Look at Jupiter, the Great Red Spot, isn’t it the result of turbulence? Right, What time does the waiting meeting start?"
"Maybe one o'clock in the afternoon." Zhang Yuan replied.
"Then you can rest for a while."
They were invited to Europa to participate in an industrial academic conference.
There are many existing achievements in this base, which are the crystallization of human wisdom and are worth learning.
The large buildings inside the ice cap are actually very particular. Various structures such as heat dissipation, support, and sewage discharge require overall planning. In particular, the heat emitted cannot exceed the endurance of the entire ice sheet, otherwise the ice will melt too much, which may cause landslides, earthquakes and other vicious accidents.
Europa, as a relatively successful immigrant planet, field trips and learning more new things are definitely beneficial.
"Uncle Yuan, when are you going to return to Earth?" Zhang Yuan patted his stomach with satisfaction and asked again.
" In three months, it will be three years old. I will never come to this ghost place again. There is no real-time video, and I haven’t seen my son and daughter for a long time. The muscles are also beginning to atrophy. It’s about to stand against a green grassland."
"How can..." Zhang Yuan hurriedly said haha.
Europa produces energy, which is the most important resource of a civilization. So here is equivalent to the former Middle East, and wages must be top-notch.
An ordinary worker's work cycle is about three years.
Even the lowest-level positions can make millions.
But because I am far away from the center of civilization, although I have money, I can’t enjoy it, let alone take care of my family, so I will inevitably take some risks... all kinds of shit, I worked hard to make money back, and I found Cuckold The stories are simply countless.
"Is there anything else I want to bring back to Earth, I can be a courier for you." Uncle Yuan said with a smile.
"Hmm..." Zhang Yuan thought for a while, "Are there any postcards? I can send some postcards back."
"Okay, there are just a few more. Let me give you all."
After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Yuan wrote several letters to two senior sisters, Wang Lili and Xu Yunjing, Professor Wang Zhong, my sister's family, and Han Ziyue.
is very brief, telling about my recent experiences and feelings.
When wrote Han Ziyue's letter, Zhang Yuan was stunned, not knowing what to write.
"Why, is it a girl?"
"Ah, a pretty cute girl. I don't know how it is now."
"That's it..." Uncle Yuan smiled~ IndoMTL.com~ seems to understand.
What do you write?
Zhang Yuan had a clever idea and drew a portrait of himself on the postcard. There was a planet floating in the sky, which is Jupiter.
His drawing level is not very good, but he has simply studied with the painter Irwin. The whole portrait looks crooked, which is much uglier than him.
However, because of the ugliness, it seems to have an inexplicable sense of comicality.
Sign your name below.
【Zhang Yuan, 2265.8.31】
I have no chance to be with you all the way, and no excuse to talk to you all night, and no chance to tell you about my current life. I can only send a postcard to tell you that I am fine, and seeing you is worse than miss.
cherish each other.
Zhang Yuan sighed slightly in his heart.
Finally, he left one for himself.
I thought about it and wrote: [Today, we have come to Europa, the outermost industrial base of mankind. The mothership will be here for the last resource replenishment. Europa is not comparable to the Earth, but it is more practical than on a spacecraft. After all, it is a planet. 】
[Next, we will go to the distant starry sky, do not know when we will reach another planet. 】
【Long night, I don’t know the road ahead. Hope that in the future, we can remember this beautiful and tender day. 】
【2265.8.31】
is finished, but it is inexplicably heavy.
Zhang Yuan raised his head and said: "I'll keep this one for myself. The rest, after you return to the earth, you can put it in the mailbox for me."
"Okay, that's a trivial matter. That's not the case!" Uncle Yuan collected the stack of postcards and nodded solemnly.
"Thank you! I will leave first."
