Chapter 149 Moon Probe
In fact, the real space flight will not have the phenomenon of starlight flowing back in the movie. In fact, the universe is too large. No matter how fast the aircraft is, even the speed of light is insignificant compared to the universe.
Of course, Long Shin-sheng also had a rough understanding, so he quickly realized it. But now, the plane is flying straight towards the moon, driving out from the porthole, with only the bright starry sky, and nothing else can be seen.
The aircraft accelerates slowly because there is no air resistance in space. In theory, as long as the engine is kept running, the acceleration will increase infinitely. Of course, after it is increased to a certain level, it will be subjected to another kind of resistance, a theoretical resistance - now it only exists in theory and has not been proven, that is the resistance of the space itself. The theoretical basis is relativity.
But for today's passengers, they are experiencing a rare acceleration. In a short period of time, healthy people can withstand three to five times the earth's gravity acceleration; but it is only a short period of time. Just like strenuous exercise, everyone can run for a distance, and it is no problem to grit their teeth and run for three to five hundred meters; but if they have to run for thousands of meters, they can only be professionals.
That is the case, acceleration in a short time can be regarded as enjoyment, such as bungee jumping; but it will cause a huge burden on the body for a long time, especially the cerebrovascular system. Therefore, the expert company has specially set up an alarm device. As long as anyone feels uncomfortable, the acceleration will gradually decrease within a reasonable range until twice the gravity. In the environment of double the gravity, the human body can maintain its best state.
Long Xinsheng felt the gradual pressure on his body, which had exceeded three times the gravity. There was no such pressure when the plane took off on the ground. In a gravity environment, it was not like carrying a heavy object, as if every corner of his body was filled with mercury.
Five times the gravity acceleration!
Looking at the prompts on the screen, Long Xinsheng felt the pressure. Although he usually pays more attention to exercise, and after registration, the expert company also conducted simple training for the pilots, the essence of the body is still weak. The year-round urban life allows Long Xinsheng to pay attention to maintenance and his body will be sub-healthy.
But - it seems a bit embarrassing to press the button, and such extreme speed is really a wonderful enjoyment.
Fortunately, before Long Xinsheng decided, someone pressed the button. Long Xinsheng turned around and saw that it was Qin Shifang, the head of Qingzhou Second Construction Group, which is closer to the expert company, was old after all, and 5 times the gravity was about to pay his life. Now his face was pale, and it was obviously at its limit.
Then, Long Shin-sheng felt the plane vibrating slightly, and the acceleration began to slow down. In this case, once the acceleration drops sharply, it can directly cause the cardiovascular system to collapse; without professional training, it will be murdered. Fortunately, the expert company is also experienced, and the acceleration is decreasing at a speed of 0.1 per minute, which can just allow the body to adjust.
The acceleration gradually decreased until it decreased to 0.8 times the gravity. At this time, Qin Shifang had completely recovered and looked at the screen state next to him with fear.
With 0.8 times gravity, the aircraft speed has reached a speed of 22 km/s.
With just a moment, the speed of the plane actually doubled! Sure enough, space is not the atmosphere of the earth. Not only Qin Shifang, but even fifteen other people were watching. After all, looking at the almost unchanging starry sky outside, it was really boring now.
About five minutes later, the plane started to accelerate again, but this time it only accelerated to 2 times the gravity, and it did not increase. Everyone was a little stressed, but it was not so uncomfortable. Of course, the body still couldn't stand it for a long time, but there was no problem in three to five hours.
The driver's powerful voice sounded: "Everyone, I'm very lucky. We are very close to Mars now, and you can observe Mars with a telescope. What a lucky journey."
"Mars!" Everyone was stunned, and then they used the exquisite astronomical telescopes they had prepared. For this space trip, each person spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy the extremely exquisite portable space telescope. After all, 1.5 billion yuan was spent, so they didn't care about tens of thousands of yuan.
As a person with dreams, Long Xinsheng spent millions of oceans to buy optical and laser dual-purpose telescopes. The advancement of technology has made such a delicate telescope look like a portable binocular, but its function is extremely powerful.
From space, Mars does look red at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that the thin atmosphere is actually blue like the earth. However, this is also easy to explain. The ground is red because it is rich in iron; and the dust in the air scatters light, just like the earth, the sky is blue.
The bumpy surface of Mars made Long Shin-sheng look at it with relish. The journey to the moon is 3-5 hours. The specific situation depends on everyone's body's ability to withstand it. Therefore, some people have started to sleep now.
But... there are always disharmonious voices: I want to go to the bathroom!
The journey has been around for four hours now. Even on the ground, it has been processed in advance, and most people have reached their limits now.
"Please wait."
The aircraft began to reduce its acceleration, and gradually, the acceleration disappeared. Of course, the current aircraft speed has reached a speed of 30 km/s, which is about 110,000 kilometers per hour. Even if the engine has stopped, the aircraft is still moving forward at a high speed.
The acceleration of gravity disappeared, and at that moment, Long Xinsheng felt as light as a feather again.
"The bathroom is at the rear of the cabin. Please grab the handrails along the way. Now the plane speeds 30 kilometers per second, please pay attention to safety."
In space, people and planes are now in a relatively stationary state, and Long Shin-soo also feels a little uncomfortable. He opens the seat belt, grabs the handrail, and flies forward floating forward. It is a wonderful experience. With a slight force of his finger, he can push himself far away.
The aircraft of the Master Company adopts air circulation, and the excrement is directly discharged into space and becomes space garbage. This is due to the huge load and low price of the aircraft of the Master Company, so you don’t have to let everyone drink the circulating filtered water with a strange smell - by the way, it’s really disgusting.
This space garbage will soon fall into the sun, or other astral bodies.
Twenty minutes later, the plane began to accelerate again, and its speed gradually exceeded 50 kilometers in seconds.
"Please note that we have arrived above the moon. Next, we will use the moon's gravity to slow down, pay attention to checking the seat belt, and count down 10 minutes-9 minutes..."
The countdown ended, and gradually a huge centrifugal force acted on everyone, changing indirection because the plane also flipped in space.
The moon in space is not as beautiful as seen on Earth, it is just a gray and bumpy world; but now there are some artificial buildings on it, which are fully automated space mining bases. However, these things are very small, usually only a hundred meters in size.
