    Ren Xiao¡¯s face turned red. The Discovery spacecraft represents the highest acceleration among human aircraft.

    In the first few minutes, with the physical strength of a sixth-level peak evolver, he was pinned to the seat and unable to move.

    Speed ??and power can best stimulate a man¡¯s adrenaline.

    Although I am somewhat used to the acceleration now, it still feels very exciting.

    The spaceship he was in was now under the unified control of the fleet flagship. He had nothing to do and Ren Xiao looked around.

    ? Observe the environment outside the spacecraft through the real-time footage synthesized by the external camera.

    Surrounded by eternal darkness, there is no trace of other warships in the fleet. Although they belong to the same team, they are at least a hundred kilometers apart from each other.

    The blue planet behind us is getting farther and farther away. At this time, it is only slightly larger than the moon when standing on the Earth Moon Star.

    Before I left, I was only thinking about exploring unknown areas, but now that I have left, I still have inextricable feelings.

    The mother star is the cradle of civilization and the hotbed of life.

    After leaving the home planet, we were soon invaded by a cold and lonely environment, and felt like we were surrounded by dangers.

    The dark universe is like a giant beast, ready to devour Little Red Riding Hood who dares to step out of the house at any time.

    Ren Xiao sighed for a moment and forced himself to get rid of the negative emotions.

    ??Looking again, the starlight in front emits a faint blue color. This is a common phenomenon in the universe. When the distance between an object and the light source is shortened, a blue shift occurs.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off????

    The ultra-high speed of tens of kilometers per second is no different from being stationary in the universe. Except for the vibration caused by the acceleration of the engine, there is no feeling at all.

    Only by relying on blue shift and red shift can you know that you are indeed moving at high speed.

    The fleet will report the current speed every once in a while.

    Two hours later¡ª¡ª

    "The current speed is 150 kilometers per hour. Turn off the engine and enter the inertial cruise state."

    Ren Xiao took a breath and quickly checked the fuel situation. The panel showed that 86% of the spacecraft's fuel reserve remained.

    "Damn it! You use up so much just by accelerating?" Ren Xiao was shocked. He seriously suspected that his fuel had been stolen by the flagship.

    You must know that a powerful nuclear fusion reactor can provide a huge amount of energy. If the fuel reserve carried by a spacecraft is converted into electrical energy, it will be enough to consume a large city for decades.

    But when used for interstellar navigation acceleration, it consumes so much at one time!  If there is another war, excluding the consumption of weapons, the energy will be even more tense.

    Of course, such a huge energy consumption results in the highest speed in human history, 150 kilometers per second and 540,000 kilometers per hour!

    At this time, the orbit of Mars is 110 million kilometers from Saturn and Moon, which is neither the farthest nor the closest.

    ¡°If a pre-apocalyptic Mars probe were to fly this distance, it would take at least more than half a year, but now, the Explorer fleet can arrive in only 8 days.

    This is the huge change brought about by technological progress.

    After Ren Xiao struggled to accept this reality, he gradually calmed down. This was just the beginning. How much energy was consumed by accelerating would be consumed by decelerating after reaching the destination.

    The energy used for acceleration and deceleration in a single trip requires 28%. Calculated in this way, with full fuel, it can only complete 3 accelerations and decelerations. This is why the spacecraft only accelerates to 150 kilometers per second.  Just the reason for stopping.

    It¡¯s not that it can¡¯t fly faster, but that the fuel consumption is too high. If the deceleration is not enough, the fleet will rush out of the solar system and will never be able to return to Saturn.

    Ren Xiao kept mumbling, with so little fuel, how could he waste it?

    As everyone knows, the Mars probe before the end of the world is not only small in size, but also the energy it carries is only one-way, and it is impossible to return.

    It can be said that every penny must be calculated and used, and there is no wealth at all.

    It¡¯s not like now, the fuel reserve can be used for one round trip.

    At this time, looking back at the Earth Moon Star, it is only the size of a fist, and will soon disappear into the stars and become a point of light.

    ¡°If you don¡¯t step out of your home star, you will never be able to feel the vastness of the universe, and you will never realize how small the entire civilization is.

    To peopleFrom a human perspective, this is an unprecedented feat, but from the perspective of the star system, this human behavior is equivalent to walking out of the house, crossing the courtyard, and coming to the street.

    If you look at it from the perspective of the Orion cantilever, this human behavior is not even the distance from the living room to the bathroom.

    But at this time, the communication between the fleet and Tuyuexing has begun to experience delays.

    The photon communication system newly researched by the Moyang Empire can propagate at a speed of 300,000 kilometers per second, which is already the highest conventional speed in the universe.

    However, Mars is currently 110 million kilometers away from Saturn. After arriving at Mars, there will be a delay of more than 6 minutes in communication with Saturn.

    ?¡­

    The journey of the Explorer fleet still took eight days. Li Yunpeng withdrew his gaze when the fleet entered the cruising stage.

    "We have taken the first step, and the follow-up work must keep up. The Academy of Sciences will control when the second batch of cargo spacecraft will depart."

    "yes!"

    After the explanation, Li Yunpeng walked out of the command hall with the irrelevant personnel. The next work of the Imperial Academy of Sciences was very heavy.

    ¡°There are not only newly developed Mars exploration missions, but also a series of new technology mass production plans that Li Yunpeng previously explained.

    It is worth mentioning that the microbial production line used to degrade nuclear radiation has been basically completed.

    The Moyang Empire will use a suspended platform to continuously throw away objects to 'sterilize' the home planet.

    The specific principle is similar to the offshore drilling platform before the end of the world, except that the floating platform is larger in size. After adding a nuclear fusion engine, it will hover over the Moyang Empire for a long time, continuously spraying microbial agents, and with the help of the atmospheric circulation system,  Delivered to all parts of the world to eliminate nuclear radiation.

    It is urgent to eliminate nuclear radiation. Li Yunpeng has no intention of taking this opportunity to steal a handful of wool from other forces. The reason is that the Moyang Empire is now powerful and does not care about the benefits, so there is no need to waste time.

    Prior to this, Li Yunpeng also had a lot of work. Now the Moyang Empire has an unprecedentedly vast territory and fully controls all the land and oceans in the Eastern Hemisphere.

    The next step of homeland defense plan also needs to be formulated as soon as possible.

    So Li Yunpeng, who came out of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, led people straight towards the administrative center.

    On the way, I saw Li Ying walking in a hurry.

    "Reporting to the Lord, the Military Intelligence Bureau has caught many spies recently!"

    Li Yunpeng was stunned. Everyone knew how powerful the Military Intelligence Agency was. Who dared to send spies to Moyang City so blindly?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
