Chapter 321 Ross No. 2 Star
"Ahem cough cough..."
[Earth].
As the deep-sea cabin door opened, a violent cough suddenly echoed throughout the starship.
"Fang Xu, how are your physical condition?"
The holographic projection automatically unfolded in front of Fang Xu, and Lu Yongchang's concerning inquiries came from the speaker beside him.
"Cough cough...I, cough cough, I'm out of the cabin and am coughing...cough cough!"
Looking at Fang Xu wearing a space suit and constantly coughing in the picture, Lu Yongchang, who was in the command center, chuckled.
"Since the situation is good, come to the command center as soon as possible."
"We're going to arrive at our destination in one month."
While coughing, Fang Xu raised his right hand and gestured to the camera beside him to a universal gesture of "friendliness".
...
One hour later.
Fang Xu stepped into the command center with his empty steps.
"Tsk tsk..."
"Your body is not good."
Perhaps because he was about to arrive at his new home, Lu Yongchang was in a good mood, and even his tone was full of teasing: "Look, which one of Zhao Zijie or I is like you?"
Fang Xu rolled his eyes angrily.
"I won't say anything about Zhao Zijie. After all, he is from the army and it's normal for him to have a better physique."
"It's you."
"I was puzzled. Why do you have so much better physical fitness than mine?"
Faced with Fang Xu's doubts, Lu Yongchang shrugged and said with a relaxed look: "Maybe it's a talent."
Fang Xu: “…”
Looking at Fang Xu's speechless expression, Lu Yongchang burst into laughter.
"In this month, you have to hurry up and exercise more in the gravity cabin."
"Don't let someone help you get off the starship when you land."
Fang Xu nodded with a wry smile.
There is no need to remind Lu Yongchang of this.
After all, he proposed to wake up a month in advance and perform restorative training in the gravity cabin.
"Okay, get back to the point."
Lu Yongchang restrained his smile and looked at the star map presented in the holographic projection.
"According to information received by Zero, there has been no abnormality in the Ross 154 star during the sixty years of navigation."
"From the detection data, factors that are interfered with higher civilizations can be basically eliminated."
"At present, a detector has left the Ross 154 orbit."
"It is expected to reach the synchronous orbit of Ross 2 soon, and then we can observe the planet in real time."
Lu Yongchang's words made everyone present feel a little expectation.
New planet.
New home.
A residence without any worries.
For human civilization at this time, this is already a paradise!
"Professor, the probe has successfully arrived near Ross 2."
Zero's voice rang in the command center.
At the same time, the holographic projection screen in front of him quietly changed.
A solid-state planet with a huge ring of planets slowly rotates on it.
Under the light of the main star, the entire star appears in a earthy yellow tone.
Among the earthy yellow color, there are still a few spots of white.
That is a water resource that exists in the form of solid ice.
It can be seen at a glance that this Ross 2 star is not comparable to the earth.
At least, in terms of water resources, there is a gap like a natural barrier between the two.
However, this thing has little impact on the current human civilization.
Therefore, everyone did not focus on this.
"Zero, let the detector log on to Star 2."
After pondering for a moment, Lu Yongchang issued an order.
In order to better detect planetary resources, at the beginning of the design, these interstellar probes were given the ability to land planets and conduct ground investigations.
"receive."
As the sound of zero sounded, the picture in the holographic projection suddenly moved.
Looking at the gradually enlarged Rose 2 star, all the researchers were sweating secretly.
...
Time passes minute by minute.
The probe first passed the ring of the planet surrounding Ross 2.
With the help of the camera, Lu Yongchang saw the components of the star ring.
In addition to some tiny gravel, there is also a lot of ice slag.
“It’s a good mining location.”
Lu Yongchang murmured to himself as he looked at the various data coming from the detector.
After crossing the planetary ring, the probe head-on into the atmosphere of Ross 2.
(The previous article said that this planet has no atmosphere, so a modification is made here. In addition, the previous article has modified the description of this part of the content.)
Considering that the surface temperature of this planet is low, Lu Yongchang specially chose near the equator as the landing site.
Under the influence of the atmosphere, the camera trembled violently.
But soon, the picture gradually stabilized.
Blue sky.
Under the light of Ross 154, which is about to go down the mountain, a wide strip appears in the center of the sky.
That is the ring of planets orbiting Ross 2!
The lens moves down.
The earthy yellow earth is undulating, with hills, basins, mountains and rivers... all kinds of terrain are visible at a glance.
There are even white snow on some high mountains.
At the end of sight is a snow-white glacier.
Lu Yongchang had even thought about it and sent a robot to the glacier to collect ice to replenish water resources.
As the detector's height continues to decline, the ground image becomes clearer.
Suddenly, he held his breath.
That's...
liquid?
Perhaps because it is near the equator and the temperature is high, under the shooting of a high-precision camera, a thin, long and winding river is clearly presented to everyone!
The detector height drops further.
A terrain on the right side of the picture instantly attracted Lu Yongchang's attention!
Surrounded by mountains on three sides, and in the middle is a plain.
In the center of the plain is a small lake.
There are still several islands in the middle of the lake.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ
On the left side of the plain, a wide river flows slowly.
"That's it!"
Lu Yongchang's eyes showed a hint of joy: "The address of the central city is here!"
As he said that, he recorded the coordinates displayed in the detector.
Everyone here nodded in agreement with Lu Yongchang's proposal.
Although there may be native microorganisms in the water, this is no longer a problem for the current human civilization.
The detector landed slowly.
Three brackets popped out from the side, holding them up steadily.
Then, the side hatch door of the spherical detector slowly opened.
A detection vehicle loaded with precision detection instruments slowly drove out from it.
