Chapter 802: The Journey

Since Jiang Cheng developed the humanoid armor, he has always wanted to make a real mecha, but he has been unable to start manufacturing it because of the lack of special materials such as alpha crystals.

Now Jiang Cheng finally has the hope of obtaining a rare material, of course he will not let go of such an opportunity.

It can be said that the main purpose of Jiang Cheng's exploration of Neptune this time is to find the Alpha Knot.

Jiang Cheng would be even happier if he could find other rare materials.

But now these are all just empty talk, before the result comes out, no one can tell this kind of thing clearly.

Now that the probe has successfully landed on Neptune, the next step is the formal detection.

However, before the probe detects Neptune, it is necessary to check the current situation of the probe.

Although the probe has sent back images on Neptune, it does not mean that everything is normal with the probe.

This just means that if the external camera is normal, it is not known whether there is a problem with the most important scanning device.

After a landing, no one knows if there is a problem with the probe.

If there is a problem with the scanning device, there is no need to continue this detection.

So Jiang Cheng was inside the bridge and gave his orders to all the crew members.

"Issuing a self-test command to the probe to check whether the probe was damaged during the landing process.

Understood, start the self-test procedure immediately. ' replied one of the crew.

It didn't take long for the probe on Neptune to send back the results of this self-test.

After all the data is analyzed, it is projected onto the light curtain in the center of the bridge.

Jiang Cheng took a look at the data on Luminosity, and knew that the detector was normal now.

It seems that Ruolu went very smoothly this time, and the detector did not suffer any damage at all.

Now that there is no problem with the detector, the detection can be officially started.

"Let's start the detection now, let the probe scan the entire Neptune

Following Ruojiang Cheng's order this time, the detector was still running immediately.

The detailed data on Neptune is being continuously transmitted back to the Pioneer.

The terrain structure under the ice layer on the surface of Neptune, as well as the distribution of minerals in the deep layer, these data are continuously sent back from the probe.

While scanning the situation under the ice layer, the probe kept moving its position.

At this time, the spherical appearance of the probe played a role. On Neptune

During the violent storm on the surface, the probe maintained sufficient stability relying on its spherical appearance.

The probe is moving at high speed on Neptune, constantly sending back a large amount of detailed data. Just after the detector was officially put into operation, Jiang Cheng didn't plan to stay here any longer.

This trial voyage is only half completed, and there is still a journey back to Earth waiting for them.

Keep the probes running on Neptune, we're ready to go back now"∥.

Now that the detector is operating normally, Jiang Cheng is ready to return with the Pioneer.

The detection of Neptune cannot be completed in a short time, and this detection will last for several months.

Alpha crystals, a rare material, cannot be found immediately.

So Jiang Cheng is going to return to Earth first, waiting for the probe to slowly search for Neptune.

"Target Earth, ready to return!

Following the return order issued by Jiang Cheng, the Pioneer began to accelerate again, and slowly left Neptune.

Neptune, the outermost planet in the solar system, has once again returned to its former calm after experiencing a short period of excitement.

Perhaps the detector on the surface of Neptune made this planet different.

Jiang Cheng's departure this time is not a permanent farewell, it all depends on the results of the detection.

If Neptune is found to have some rare materials, Jiang Cheng will come here again.

At that time, Jiang Cheng will lead his men to mine on this harsh planet.

Rare substances like Alpha Knot are still very attractive to Jiang Cheng, even to the point where they will be mined at all costs.

But now Jiang Cheng has no time to care about rare substances. He still has to command the Pioneer and start their journey back to Earth.

The return journey of the Pioneer is not much different from when it came. First of all, the Pioneer also needs to accelerate for a period of time before it can reach the highest speed.

When the speed of the spacecraft reaches half the speed of light, it will take several hours of flight before Jiang Cheng and the others can return to Earth.

Half the speed of light is the highest speed in the solar system, and the energy consumed by continuing to accelerate is too great, even fusion reactors cannot provide it.

And if the spacecraft wants to continue to increase its speed, the only way to shorten the space is to turn on the curvature trigger.

But in a place like the inner solar system, the sun has too much mass, so the gravitational pull is too much.

Such a large gravitational force has already exceeded the safety limit, and it cannot trigger the curvature.

This is the troublesome part of navigating in the star system, and the curvature guide cannot be used at all.

If Jiang Cheng forcibly turns on the curvature attraction in the solar system, maybe the space folds will change due to gravity.

At that time, due to space shocks, the entire spaceship will be torn to pieces.

Although Jiang Cheng's physical fitness is very good, but the space shock will tear up all matter, even if Jiang Cheng's body is harder than a diamond, it will be broken into pieces in seconds.

Although Jiang Cheng likes to take risks very much, he will not do this kind of death-seeking thing.

If the Pioneer wants to turn on the curvature induction and increase the speed to ten times the speed of light, it must leave the gravitational range of the solar system.

When the spacecraft is flying on curvature, Zhou Guo cannot have a massive celestial body like a star.

This is already the consensus of all civilizations in the universe, and it is also a general rule among civilizations.

Generally, when conducting ultra-long-distance voyages between galaxies, the mode adopted is to first use the speed of the spacecraft itself, and then conduct curvature flight after flying out of the star system.

In this way, accidents can be avoided during curvature flight, and at the same time, the efficiency of navigation can be guaranteed to the greatest extent.

If Jiang Cheng wants to go to Proxima Centauri, he must first fly out of Fanguo in the solar system at half the speed of light.

Then turn on the curvature engine and fly over a distance of four light years at ten times the speed of light.

After the spaceship arrived at the country of Zhou on the Bibu star, the curvature induction was turned off again, and the spaceship flew to this star system at the speed of the spaceship itself.

But now Jiang Cheng is not interested in going to the extremely harsh star system of Proxima Centauri.

Let’s talk about this kind of thing in the future, Jiang Cheng only thinks about returning to Earth now.
