Chapter 1639 The new discovery of Curiosity!

Expeditionary Ship yz-360, Laboratory 068.

Vincent Hutch is skillfully manipulating the super real 3D operating table in front of him. As an elite engineer of Sanhe Star and graduated from the Central Academy of Engineering of Sanhe Star Empire, Vincent Hutch is skillfully manipulating the production procedures in front of him.

One hour ago, Vincent Hutch and the yz-360-012 Engineer Team received a new production task, producing a super audio system with the number CSS-0058. This is a new equipment based on the Triple Sound System, equipped with the latest quantum audio transmission system and control system. However, for Vincent Hutch, this is just a simple upgrade and no difficulty.

Vincent Hatch has a heartfelt love for the super real 3D operating platform in front of him. This operating system from the great earth civilization is far beyond more than one level of engineering operating system he used before, both in terms of interface intuitiveness and ease of use. It is really enjoyable to use this system for assembly and production.

The 3D projection in front of me shows that in the huge production workshop, components produced by computers were quickly assembled together by extremely flexible engineering robots, and in less than a minute, an independent speaker unit was assembled.

This set of standard speakers named "Green Connected I-type" is 1 meter long, 0.6 meters wide and 2 meters high. It uses a 50-inch standard midrange unit, 30-inch woofer unit and 25-inch tweeter. It integrates quantum audio communication technology and Roland i-type hi-fi circuit system. A "Green Connected I-type" speaker is an independent set of audio. In the case of separate use, this "Green Connected I-type" standard speaker allows creatures within a radius of 100 meters centered on it to perfectly receive the audio signals it plays!

A complete set of CCS audio systems consists of 5,000 standard "Green Connected I" speakers, repeaters, controllers, central mixers, power supply systems and other parts, with a total of more than 10,000 pieces! This is a large audio system. After assembly, in the formal operation state, creatures within a range of 1,000 square kilometers can perfectly receive the audio played by them!

The Expeditionary-class warship is a super-large comprehensive warship designed specifically for cosmic voyage. An expeditionary ship is a complete closed ecological chain. Theoretically, as long as it can be supplemented by energy, an expeditionary-class warship can sail unlimitedly. And its internal laboratory systems and production systems, under sufficient resources, can also produce all products based on Sanhexing's second-level civilization technology, including this new standard audio system!

The production task received by the yz-360 fleet is 500 sets of CSS-0058 super sound systems. With the manufacturing capabilities of the expeditionary-class warship, it takes 20 hours to complete this production task. This is the average time. For an elite engineer like Vincent Hutch, it only takes nineteen hours to complete the twenty production tasks he received!

"The last unit is assembled, with a yield rate of 100%. After completing this task, you can go to rest!" Vincent Hatch waving his tentacles and pressed the last return. Looking at the picture in front of him, the last assembled "Green Connected I-type" standard speaker was transported away by the engineering robot, and stretched out his big waist and said to himself.

The engineering robot extended a few meters of robotic arm, grabbed the freshly baked "Green Connected I-type" standard speaker, and accurately placed it in a designated location in a valley on Mars according to the positioning given by the central computer on the Leshen.

This is an unknown valley. From a distance, the yellowish tone fills the entire sky. At this moment, the valley is blowing at a strong wind of twelve levels. If it were ordinary engineering machinery on the earth, it would have been blown to the sky under such harsh weather conditions! However, the engineering robot developed by the Sanhexing civilization flew steadily in the air. The perfect application of anti-gravity technology, coupled with the central navigation system of the supercomputer, makes this engineering robot adapt to the Mars environment as if it were fish in water.

The huge engineering robot, more than 20 meters long, hovered above this unknown valley, then opened the abdominal cabin, and the robot arm grabbed a freshly baked "Green Connected I-type" standard speaker and gently placed it on the ground of Mars. The moment the "Green Connected I-type" standard speaker came into contact with the ground of Mars, the built-in stable system was started, and three fixed devices arranged in equilateral triangular structures at the bottom extended their long tentacles and extended to more than ten meters underground. Then they stopped drilling and started the locking system. The next moment, the green light at the top lit up, and a normal installation signal was issued, indicating that the installation was successfully completed!

The engineering robot that received the information immediately rose from the ground, the anti-gravity engine was fully powered, and headed towards the next target!

This scene is everywhere on the vast Mars land. Countless huge engineering robots, like seedling machines, placed the sound systems in thousands of production workshops on 360 expeditionary ships in precisely and accurately in designated locations according to the results of supercomputers!

"Ding!" A crisp indication sound sounded. The standard speaker "Green Connected I-type" numbered ll-33548, which was just "seeded", officially established a connection with the quantum communication satellite and entered a working state. The built-in super battery allows it to work continuously for 100 Earth years in standard mode.

At this moment, behind a low hill less than ten meters high a few hundred meters away from the "Green Connected I-type" standard speaker with a length of 10 meters, an engineering robot that was about two meters high and about five or six meters was slowly sailing towards this direction.

This engineering robot is different from the huge anti-gravity flight robot that just deployed the "Green Connected I" standard speaker. If the "Green Connected I" standard speaker is a huge elephant, then this engineering robot can only be regarded as a rabbit at best, or smaller than a rabbit.

Its body surface is covered with temptations and pits of varying depths, all of which show the "suffering" that this engineering robot has experienced on this planet.

This is not any engineering robot under the "Expedition Fleet" led by Chu Yang. Although it looks extremely simple on the outside, this machine is quite famous on earth!

This is a Mars rover developed by the US National Space Administration for Exploring Mars. It was named "Curiosity" by the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration. It was launched in November 2011 and successfully landed on the surface of Mars in August 2012. So far, the rover has been working on this planet for eight years. Although the internal components are extremely old, it is still working diligently. Relying on the energy provided by the solar windsurfing plates, according to the established procedures, it "wakes up" every once in a while and continues to carry out its exploration mission.

The Curiosity, which looked like the large version of "Robot Wall", was slowly moving forward according to the route specified by the program. More than ten seconds later, it arrived in front of the "Green Connected I-type" standard speaker that had just been arranged and numbered ll-33548, and then stopped.

The "Curiosity" Mars rover raised its old metal "head" and looked at the "big guy" in front of him with a silver-white metallic luster, full of streamlined beauty and technological beauty, just like the Wall Li in the movie "Robot Mobilization", staring at the high-tech robot Eva for the first time. It seemed a little confused and did not understand why there was such an advanced technological creation on the desolate Mars.

Of course, "doubt" is just its appearance. The built-in AI of this Mars rover, built in 2011, is far less advanced, and "thinking" is still 100,000 miles away from it. However, the ll-33548 "Green Connected I" standard speaker that suddenly appeared here just met its detection conditions, so it "stopped" and used its two high-definition cameras with up to 50 million pixels from Leica to capture the "big guy" in front of me.

The next moment, the "Curiosity" sent this photo back to the earth through the dedicated data channel of the GPS system according to the program's instructions.

The direct data bandwidth of Curiosity and Earth is about 8kbit/s, but the ideal transmission bandwidth with the Mars rover 2001 Mars Odyssey can reach 2mbit/s, while the bandwidth of Mars Odyssey and Earth in 2001 is 256kbit/s. When the probe flies over the rover, it can communicate for eight minutes each time and transmit up to 250mbit of data. This 250mbit data takes more than 20 minutes to be transmitted to Earth.

At this moment, on Earth 400 million kilometers away from Mars, in the observation room of the Kennedy Space Center in the United States, observer Walker was holding his favorite Starbucks caramel mado, snuffing in small sips while wearing Sennheiser HD850 special-made monitor headphones specially made by Nasa, listening to the songs of the Eagles.

Kennedy Space Center (KENNEDYSPAECEENTER, abbreviated as KSC) is located on Merritt Island on the east coast of Florida in eastern United States. It was established in July 1962. It is the most important place for the National Aeronautis and Spaeadministration to conduct manned and unmanned spacecraft tests, preparation and implementation of launches. Its name is to commemorate the late US President John F. Kennedy. The entire site is 55 kilometers long and 10 kilometers wide, with an area of ​​567 square kilometers, and about 17,000 people are working there.

In such a large scientific research institution, except for those elite scientists who are busy every day, most people's work is leisurely and comfortable, and even a little bored. Just like Walker, who has been working here for eleven years, can be regarded as a veritable "old employee". His daily work is to observe various data sent back by the spacecraft launched by Nasa into space, and then classify and summarize it according to the event level, and then report it to his superior, the old woman Doris, who suffers from menopausal syndrome.

About a year ago, Walker's work had an extra content, which was to receive pictures of Mars sent back by Curiosity. When he first came into contact with this work, Walker was actually very excited. After all, it was Mars, the first alien planet that humans could directly detect. Of course, if the moon was to be included, Mars could only rank second. However, Walker and many colleagues of Nasa believed that the moon was just a satellite of the earth. Although landing on the moon was also a great thing, it could not be considered a landing on the "alien planet". But Mars is different. This is the planet with the closest environment of humans in the solar system, and even many scientific research institutions are studying how to immigrate to Mars. So Walker, like many colleagues of Nasa, has a strong interest in Mars.

However, Walker's interest lasted less than two weeks and was wiped out. Curiosity on Mars would send him a photo of Mars every twenty minutes. Walker admitted that he was indeed fascinated by everything when he saw the dark red earth on Mars and the strange rocks weathered into strange shapes. But when he saw dozens and hundreds of times, he began to get tired of it. No one would be interested in the same scene anymore. Until now, when he saw the same scenes less than tens of thousands of times, he had completely lost interest in this job. If it weren't for the fact that the salary of this job was quite good, and he also had a girlfriend who loved famous brands, especially Louis Vaderton's bag, Walker would have long wanted to throw these photos on the face of an old woman who was in menopause at that time.

"Well, the caramel mado seems to have put too much sugar in the caramel mado recently. It seems that he will talk to the courier next time." Walker put the caramel mado on his desk, which had been drinking almost two-thirds of the time, and then patted his increasingly "high" dunna, and continued with some self-deprecating words: "It seems that I have to go to the gym a few more times. Sitting in a chair every day is too easy to gain weight."

"Didi!" An electronic prompt sound suddenly sounded on the console in front of him. However, Walker didn't care at all. He had been working here for more than a year and was already very familiar with this sound. It was a signal that the "Curiosity" started working. Since it was only equipped with a solar windsurfing system, "Curiosity" would enter dormant state after a period of time, replenish power, and then continue to work after replenishment. According to the previous cycle, today should be the 237th time it started. Without looking at the work log on the computer, Walker could remember it clearly.

He also knew that when he heard the prompt sound, the broken classic car far above Mars had been working for twenty minutes. At this time, it should have finished taking a photo, which was being transmitted to the earth, but if he wanted to see the red photo of the shit, he would have to wait for another twenty minutes.

Wash typing the keyboard a few times, recording the system log, and then continued to listen to the Eagles song. When he heard his favorite "Hotel in California" for the fourth time, another system prompt sound finally rang again. Walker knew that it was the "homework" handed in the classic car after "wake up".

After typing the "Receive" key, Walker looked at the screen in front of him, and the progress bar rolled forward at a familiar rhythm. When the progress bar rolled to the end, a picture appeared in front of him.
