I’ll add some practice in the real world - Chapter 391
c383 382 speed of light 57
Chapter 383 382 57% of the speed of light
Chen Jue doesn’t know what’s happening on the moon side. His perception ability can only cover a few hundred kilometers at present, and he can’t cover the entire earth-moon orbit.
At this time, he was riding the spherical aircraft, heading towards Mars at high speed.
After entering the space environment, without the air resistance of the earth’s atmosphere and the influence of the earth’s gravity, the spherical aircraft driven by Chen Jue became faster and faster.
It increased by three orders of magnitude from hundreds of Mach to around Mach 100,000 in one breath.
At this time, the speed of the aircraft has exceeded 34 kilometers per second, reaching 10% of the speed of light, but has not yet reached Chen Jue’s limit.
And the speed is not particularly fast!
Because mankind’s current fastest spacecraft, the Juno spacecraft launched by Eagle Country in 2011, used Jupiter’s huge gravity to accelerate to a world record of 73.6 kilometers per second in 2016.
“Try my acceleration limit!”
Chen Jue worked hard and used the gravitational field between the Earth and Mars to continuously speed up the navigation speed of the spherical aircraft.
100,000, 200,000, 300,000, and when it reached Mach 500,000, the entire aircraft began to be unable to withstand such a terrifying speed and began to tremble violently.
“Is it space dust?” Chen was determined and reached out to pat the metal inner wall of the aircraft to increase the injection of plasma energy.
You know, space looks almost vacuum, but in fact there is a lot of cosmic dust floating in it.
This dust contains a mixture of rock particles, metal particles, and gas particles. Although the distribution is extremely uneven, the proportion of one unit cubic meter is almost 0.
But once the spacecraft accelerates to a certain speed, just like driving on a rainy day, the amount of cosmic dust in the head-on collision begins to increase sharply, just like a car plunging into the rain. No matter how hard the wiper wipes, it is impossible to wipe it all. Raindrops falling from the sky.
Fortunately, after Chen Jue’s plasma energy was injected into the shell, the originally solid hard shell of the spherical aircraft entered a fluid state again, stabilizing the tremors.
The cosmic dust that hits the outer shell head-on is either blown away by the airflow rolled up by the aircraft, or is absorbed and fused into the outer shell like the bullets fired at the aircraft.
A harder and denser protective layer was built on the outermost layer of the aircraft, which completely adapted to the flight environment of outer space, and the abnormal and violent tremors completely calmed down.
…
Although the process of cruising in space was very boring, Chen Jue leaned comfortably on the large American sofa and used the notepad function of the smart bracelet to record in detail some important data during the flight.
“Voyage record: After entering space, when the aircraft reaches 56% of the speed of light, the shell will encounter a cosmic dust barrier similar to a sound barrier.”
“Countermeasures: Reinforce the outer shell of the aircraft, or use a waverider shape to open a route to avoid cosmic dust. Spherical aircraft are not suitable for high-speed cruising in the space environment…”
This data will be crucial for future human beings to step into the stars and conduct interstellar travel.
As a true saint in the world and a pioneer of mankind, he naturally wanted to leave a few words in the history of entering the starry sky.
It’s just that Chen Jue a little overestimated the distance between the Earth and Mars, after flying at a cruising speed of 56% of the speed of light for less than 20 minutes.
Chen Jue can clearly sense that the gravitational field outside the aircraft is changing.
“Arrived on Mars so soon?” Chen’s determination was shaken. He noticed that a gravitational field that was 10 times smaller and faster than the Earth was providing traction for the aircraft.
Because the diameter of Mars is only half that of the Earth, and its mass is only about 11% of the Earth, the gravity it can provide is naturally much smaller.
After noticing this change in the gravitational field, Chen Jue slowly reduced the speed of the aircraft and reached out to touch the inner wall.
The surface of the spherical shell, which was originally in a fluid state, suddenly squirmed, as if teeth were growing in the gums.
Along with the dazzling white light, a piece of transparent thick glass grew out of the shell.
This is a transparent observation window that Chen Jue borrowed his [Matter Interference] ability to create a transparent observation window from the dust and gravel adsorbed on the outer shell of the aircraft.
When flying at 57% of the speed of light, the glass of this type of viewing window could not withstand the oncoming dust flow, so Chen Jue did not do this.
Now that he is about to arrive at Mars, and after slowing down to the speed of a normal spacecraft, he needs to observe the situation on Mars with the naked eye.
After all, Chen Jue’s perception ability is not as exaggerated as covering an entire planetary system in one breath. There is no high-tech positioning and navigation inside the aircraft. He can only judge whether his route is correct by looking directly at it with the naked eye.
Through the viewing window, Chen Jue saw a red planet.
Its volume is only half the size of the Earth, and its outer atmospheric protection is much thinner than that of the Earth. The atmosphere is mainly composed of carbon dioxide, with only small amounts of oxygen and water vapor.
The whole spark fell in Chen Jue’s eyes, full of deathly silence and desolation.
Compared to the azure earth, which is full of life, it seems as if the entire planet has fallen into a deep sleep.
“Is this Mars?”
“In the thirty-sixth year of the First Emperor’s reign, he remained loyal to the emperor.”
“It looks much more spectacular up close than it looks in the data.” Chen Jue muttered, stretched out his hand, and the newly formed observation window seemed to have a slide rail. He pulled it from right in front of the fluid shell. Pulled to the top of the head.
Through the change of observation angle, Chen Jue saw the signal pointer shining directly from the earth to the surface of Mars.
It was a special energy field emitted from the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, and Chen Jue had observed its trajectory several times before when he was on Earth.
Now that it has flown hundreds of millions of kilometers, the energy field emitted by this imperial mausoleum still has not decayed. It is like a compass pointer in the space environment, providing Chen Jue with a direction to continue moving forward.
“Is this a signal pointer, or is it similar to the Rainbow Bridge in Norse mythology?”
“The distance between the two planets will not attenuate…” Chen became determined and controlled the aircraft, approaching Mars little by little along the pointing bridge built by this energy field.
After spending a few minutes adjusting its flight attitude and passing through the thin Martian atmosphere, the spherical aircraft landed smoothly on the surface of Mars near the equator.
As the shell on the surface of the sphere squirms, a hatch is automatically created for the human body to pass through.
Chen Jue was dressed in black, tightly wrapped from head to toe. Only his eyes were covered with a device similar to diving goggles. He kicked off his feet and stood lightly on the ground of Mars.
“The achievement of being the first human to set foot on Mars!” Chen couldn’t help but feel happy in his determination.
He raised his head and looked around, and what he saw was the sky full of dim yellow sand. The strong wind carried the reddish-brown gravel and beat it on the surface of his suit.
As for the place where he stood, it was an arch, like a low hilly rock. The topography was very similar to a weathered ghost town in the desert of the earth.
As soon as he landed on the huge rock, Chen Jue noticed something was wrong.
He could clearly feel that there seemed to be something under the rocky hill where he was.
Chen Jue sensed something was wrong under his feet with his external senses, and stamped his feet violently. The reddish-brown rocks around him felt like they had been hit by an earth-penetrating missile.
There was a loud bang, and the rock blocks covering several kilometers around Chen Jue’s stamped feet broke into countless pieces in an instant.
It’s like a big pointed rice dumpling that has been stripped of its outer layer.
The moment these rocks peeled off, a pyramid-shaped building that was very similar to the Mausoleum of the First Emperor was revealed!
“No wonder the signal from the Imperial Tomb points to this area.”
“There really is something going on underneath this!”
