Chapter 74 – Sign in!

“Xiaoyu, he has landed on Mars!” Du Xingyu’s parents learned the news immediately.

“The landing was successful!” Everyone in Xingyao Company and Chengfeng Space Company was celebrating.

Before TV and before the Internet, there were also a large number of viewers celebrating and cheering for it.

Two hours later, on Mars, Chris Plains, everyone determined the location of the base.

It is a lava plain on the back of a crater. The crater can block the dust storms that often ravages on Mars. The Martian sandstone on the surface can be used as a building material. The surrounding view is wide and the terrain is flat, which is a good choice.

“The target camp is about an hour away from Yingzhuo.” Xu Lianqiu said, looking at the special watch, “We must return before 6 pm Mars time. This is the safest and safest way.”

“Go, let’s go!” The Yinghuan Mars spacecraft carried two foldable rover. Everyone sat on the rover, carrying supplies, and followed by an electric scooter composed of modular robots, to the target location.

Taking advantage of his time in the car, Du Xingyu cut the footage taken by the camera a bit and posted it to his account of “Earth Observation” with a shaking voice.

“Updated again?” As soon as Du Xingyu’s Dousheng fans opened the software, they saw the latest video.

In the picture, Du Xingyu has made the first footprint of mankind on Mars!

“6666!”

“We are officially landing on Mars!”

“(Expression: I admit that you are a little bit powerful.)”

“The news hasn’t appeared yet, but I saw it on shaking voice! I’m so excited!”

“Now that we have landed on Mars, we need to find a suitable place to build a Mars base…” Du Xingyu explained in the video.

“Well, everyone, we have found the location and are ready to go!”

The video was cut short, leaving the audience unfinished.

“The author is too short!”

“Just a little bit, I still want to see it!”

“@小丸子, watch the new show-“Survival on Mars”!”

“Isn’t this much better than variety shows?”

“Follow, follow!!! Please next episode!”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

In just a few hours, Du Xingyu’s vibrato fans rose to more than five million! And as his videos enter the hot video list, this speed is still increasing!

On Mars, Du Xingyu led a team to the target location.

At the foot is a wide plain of lava covered with a layer of sand. Farther away is a ring of mountains, which was formed by meteorites in the ancient times of Mars.

“Start work!” Du Xingyu gave an order, and everyone started to work.

They first opened up an inflatable anti-radiation tent. Although there are space suits to prevent radiation, they still cannot be exposed to the surface environment for a long time, which will damage the body.

Su Peng and others manipulated the modular robot and began to lay the foundation for the base, collecting sand and gravel and handing it over to the 3D printing robot to lay the foundation.

Xu Lianqiu and Xu Rui went to lay portable signal stations for communication and environmental monitoring equipment.

This seemingly calm Mars actually hides countless dangers. The weird and changeable natural environment is their greatest enemy!

Modular robots are constantly working, and the foundation of the Mars base is rapidly being laid. The process is similar to that in the video posted by Du Xingyu. The printed Martian mud is stacked on the ground layer by layer to form an ant nest-like shell.

When the shell is finished, they will build another wall with dry ice and soil for heat preservation and radiation protection.

The Mars construction site is in full swing. A few kilometers away from the construction site, Xu Lianqiu and Xu Rui are installing an wind speed alarm, which is facilitated by a microprocessor and a highly dynamic wind sensor, which can monitor the surrounding air flow. And speed.

“Huh?” Xu Lianqiu suddenly said in surprise, “Xu Rui, do you think the wind speed is a little abnormal?”

“Not normal?” Xu Rui looked at the meter and said: “There are some fluctuations, but they should all be within the normal range. The alarm also shows normal.”

“No!” Xu Lianqiu frowned, and said: “Remember what we learned in the simulated Mars base? The composition and structure of the Martian atmosphere is different from that of the earth, and we cannot judge it by the standards on the earth.”

She looked at the meter carefully and said: “The change in airflow has accelerated, and the direction of the wind has changed… There may be a sudden dust storm!”

Martian dust storms are natural disasters that often occur on Mars, hundreds of times a year. At some point, a huge Martian dust storm will last for several years, and dust with a particle size of 10 microns will be blown into the sky for several kilometers, obscuring the sky!

Mars synchronous satellites have been monitoring the meteorological conditions above the landing site, but local sudden changes make it difficult for the satellite to predict in advance.

“We didn’t find any signs of dust storms before we landed…but you are right. The atmosphere here is changing too fast. Let’s notify them in advance.” Xu Rui shouted into the communicator, “Captain, I am Xu Rui. We found that the changes in the nearby air currents have intensified, which may cause dust storms!”

“Dust storm?” Du Xingyu was manipulating the robot to build a wall at this time, and when he heard Xu Rui’s words, he looked around.

The surrounding area was very calm, with only slight wind blowing in the sand.

“Are you sure?” Du Xingyu asked again.

“Sixty percent chance.” Xu Lianqiu said in the communication channel. “There is too little data to make accurate predictions. I suggest to stop work immediately and prepare to return.”

“Okay!” Du Xingyu said directly in the team channel, “All members, immediately suspend construction and scientific research tasks, gather work, and prepare to return to the spacecraft!”

Before the base is built, even if it is only 10% possible, they don’t need to gamble. There is so much time anyway, but there is only one life!

Xu Lianqiu and Xu Rui mounted a Martian motorcycle and ran towards Du Xingyu.

On the construction site, everyone immediately began to pack tools and materials, put them on the cart composed of modular robots, and prepare to return to the spacecraft.

At this time, the wind speed alarm has started to alarm, and the wind speed has begun to surge in a short period of time. The sound of howling wind came from a distance, and one could see with the naked eye that the other side of the lava plain was filled with yellow sand, like a thousand horses, rushing towards Du Xingyu and others.

“It’s too late to go back!” Xu Lianqiu shouted anxiously to Du Xingyu, “The wind speed is faster than us. It takes an hour to go back. You will be caught up by the dust storm! It’s best to avoid it!”

Du Xingyu knew that his decision at this time had a bearing on the lives of the team members.

Thinking of the training content at the simulated Mars base, he hurriedly shouted: “Everyone immediately stop the mission, get down behind the mud wall, and cover yourself with a cover! Remember, don’t probe, protect yourself, and wait for the dust storm. past!”

Du Xingyu knew very well that the place they chose to land on, the Chris Plains, would not break out of a large-scale dust storm because of the geographical environment. This must be a sudden local dust storm.

On the other hand, the atmosphere of Mars is thin, only one percent of that of the earth, and the wind power of local dust storms is limited. It is impossible to blow away the rover and spacecraft like in science fiction movies.

The mud wall built by the modular robot just now has a sloped pile structure that will block most of the wind and sand.

As long as the measures are taken properly, the crisis can be dealt with!
