What does 11,863 tons of load mean in space?

Saturn V, the largest launch vehicle in human history, has a lunar load of 45 tons. The carrying capacity of Tomorrow's trip is 263 times this value, or to go to Mars.

Humans have a large communication satellite of about 2 tons, while Lao Mi's large detection satellite that claims to be able to photograph people in space is less than two tons. This means that ignoring space factors, Tomorrow can transport 5,000 large satellites at one time.

"Land command, 6 Mars global communication satellites have been deployed, 12 optical detection satellites and 78 remote sensing detection satellites have also been deployed, and the spacecraft is descending to the Mars surface to conduct detection instruments, and the acquisition of robots, including and detection rovers."

On the third day after the launch of the Big Fat Girl, the Mars communication system composed of satellites and the space exploration system composed of optical detection and remote sensing detection satellites were arranged.

"Activate communication, optical detection and remote sensing satellites first." Lu Yi looked at the red planet on the screen and ordered.

For 4 billion years, in addition to the occasional meteorite fall, Mars has ushered in the largest off-planet visit.

Next, Tomorrow will distribute 138 large fire hocmeters and 138 large heat flow probes in various regions of Mars, and will cooperate with space optical detection satellites and remote sensing detection satellites to provide a three-dimensional and comprehensive accurate analysis of Mars.

In addition to the fire shock meter and heat flow probe, 60 amphibious detection vehicles integrating surface detection, ground drilling and submersible detection will be deployed. Each probe is equipped with three multi-purpose acquisition robots and corresponding analysis instruments to track and detect suspicious areas of Mars.

At this time, there are still a few months before the Mars window period, and the distance between Earth and Mars is still more than 150 million kilometers.

Through the satellite communication station of the Mars exploration team, commands were transmitted to communication satellites in Earth's space, and then electromagnetic waves took more than 8 minutes to transmit the commands to the Mars satellite system.

All satellites have been activated and began to conduct high-precision photography and remote sensing detection of Mars according to the instructions. After more than an hour, a more accurate Martian data was returned through the link of the communication satellite.

The supercomputer is quickly analyzing these data, and the Mars images on the screen are constantly refreshing. Rows of parameters are refreshed on the screen, and red, green and yellow areas are marked. These are all abnormally suspicious areas with different material composition and environmental soil.

The red signal area is the most, it is suspected to be a metal accumulation area, and there are fewer green areas. From the feedback of remote sensing signals, there are underground lakes or ice cubes deep in the earth's crust. There are less than a hundred yellow ones, which are suspected to be coal mine areas.

"this......"

When the latest remote sensing data on Mars was refreshed, everyone in the Mars exploration team stared at the sight of their eyes widened.

It's too regular, these signal areas are too regular!

It’s okay that the green is suspected to be groundwater. There are not many signal points of large and small, and most of the range is concentrated in the two poles. Everyone is not surprised by this, because there is water ice on both poles of Mars that it has been confirmed.

What really makes everyone stunned is the yellow signal area suspected to be coal. The signal is very clear, and 93 of the 97 signal areas are concentrated in the equatorial area, just like a lace surrounding the equatorial equator of Mars.

What shocked everyone even more is that remote sensing detects that metal signal reactions with relatively high purity are almost mixed with these coal areas, while the red metal signal reactions in other areas of Mars are not high in purity, not much different from those of ordinary mineral veins in nature.

"This is definitely a trace left by the Martians!"

"With such a strong carbon signal reaction, this must be carbon-based life, and from the perspective that it is a life with high demand for light from the perspective of being in the equatorial region!"

The people in the detection team became excited. The Mars Insight probe discovered anomalies from the seismic wave parameters to confirm that Mars once had civilization, but that was just a seismic wave parameter, and there was no idea about the specific details.

However, the data fed back by the large satellite remote sensing system now reveals the traces left by the Martians in macroscopic light. Judging from the dense carbon reaction, this is certainly carbon-based life. From the dense distribution in the equatorial area, it shows that this is a life race with a relatively high demand for light.

The most important thing is to determine that the Martians are carbon-based life types, then we can confirm that during the existence of the Martians, the Martian magnetic field was very stable, but later an unknown unexpected magnetic field disappeared.

If the planet has no magnetic field, some stubborn bacteria may survive under the solar wind, but it is absolutely impossible to develop advanced life and intelligent civilization.

"There is a question. Since it is carbon-based life, it depends on the earth's ecological environment. Not only the equator, but other areas will definitely have life reproduction."

While everyone was excited, some people calmly asked: "I think that under the premise that the magnetic field exists, the atmosphere is not thin and the water vapor is evaporated, the environmental temperature of Mars will be lower than that of the Earth, but it will not be much lower, and it will definitely not be the only equator that can reproduce.

The long reproduction and reproduction of carbon-based life will deposit a large amount of carbon material, which is also the origin of coal and oil.

From this perspective, the coal area detected by Mars remote sensing should not only surround the equatorial area, but also in other temperate and even cold zones, there will definitely be a rich coal signal reaction."

"Will this be the use of coal and oil by the Martians, collecting coal and oil from the world into the equatorial city areas, and eventually the extinction of civilization will remain in the equatorial area."

"The utilization of coal and oil is nothing more than burning. After combustion, the carbon in coal and oil will also turn into carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide and be re-emitted to the atmosphere. Even if it is not burned, it will slowly weather and undergo a slow chemical reaction to convert it into carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide to be emitted to the atmosphere.

The carbon emitted into the atmosphere will be absorbed and re-deposited by vegetation, which is the carbon cycle of the entire planet.

The existence of the carbon cycle determines that carbon elements may be enriched in a certain area of ​​the planet, but they will not be as good as they are now except for the equatorial area, and there are almost no coal-enriched areas in the rest of the areas..."

"Commander Lu, this..." Everyone could not argue and looked at Lu Yi.

"It's too early to talk about the conclusion."

Lu Yi shook his head and ordered: "Change the original delivery plan. In addition to the arrangement of the fire shock meter and heat flow probes, the arrangement position of the fire shock meter and heat flow probe remains unchanged according to the original plan. 60 detection vehicles were deployed on Mount Olympus and directly opposite Mount Olympus, two were deployed on Mars' North and South Poles, and the remaining 50 were all placed in the top ten shallow areas of the 93 coal-rich areas in the equator!"

The Mars magnetic field is conservatively estimated to have disappeared for 4 billion years, which means that the civilization above has disappeared for at least 4 billion years.

Normal paper will rot if buried in the soil for a few months, and will turn gray if exposed to the air for decades.

As for electronic storage items, it would be fine if they were buried in permafrost, they could be stored for a thousand years. If they were in ordinary environments, because of the impact of thermal movement on the storage medium, the information stored internally would be completely lost without a hundred years.

The higher the precision of electronic products, the higher the temperature and humidity of the environment, the shorter the storage time for information storage.

The existence of thermal motion, unless the temperature is reduced to an absolute zero point, any object will be mixed into a ball for a long time.

Therefore, Lu Yi had no hope of finding information storage items for the Martian civilization and finding the civilization information left by the Martians. These stored information may have been completely lost within a thousand years after the demise of the Martians.

He only hopes to find out the reasons for the extinction of the Martian civilization from the fossils, from the decay of elements, from the geological evolution of the planet.

A strange disappearance of a civilization in the solar system with an unknown and terrifying power that is no less than that of humans. This feels so terrifying and terrifying...
