Chapter 43 - Mars Departure (2)

Although the faceplate engine was mostly vaporized, its mission was accomplished, and it successfully lifted the ship up. Nuclear fusion, the divine power of the same source as the sun's interior, is also the power of human rebirth! The acceleration of Noah's ship in this moment even reached 1500 meters per quadratic second!

What is the concept of this figure? It is 150 times the acceleration of the Earth's gravity! In other words, a 50 kg person will be subjected to a force of 75,000 Newtons in a moment, and such a force will directly crush a person into a meat cake!

A large number of instruments and facilities in the observation room could not withstand such a force and were directly damaged, but because of the strange structure of the ship, the people inside could not feel the force at all, and of course they would not be crushed into meat cakes.

A drop of cold sweat emerged from Oliver's forehead, not knowing whether it was because of nervousness or excitement. He knew in his heart that it wasn't over yet! The force of the nuclear propulsion continued, and the ship was still accelerating.

The mushroom cloud of the nuclear explosion looked a little slim and not too big because of the "basin" engine, but it was so powerful that the huge force it generated lifted the ship up in just a moment.

The ship looked as if it was being held at the head of a mushroom cloud, flying faster and faster, higher and higher, until thousands, tens of thousands, tens of thousands of meters ... Finally, after a period of time, the ship's acceleration began to slow down.

"I order, all teams check the operation of the ship!" Oliver commanded calmly. The plan was not finished yet, this was the most critical moment, as the supreme commander, he must give an image of stability and reliability, although his mind was not very calm.

"Report Captain, outer engine damage 85.76%, basically as expected, tertiary engine has also been damaged."

"The right wing observation room is damaged and is under urgent repair."

"External material detached from lab 2! Under repair!"

"Lab 7 is burned, one of the steel pipes is broken and may trigger air leakage. Under repair!"

"Spacecraft speed is currently 16.56 km/s ...19.44 ...23.66 ...27.96 ... Acceleration is gradually decreasing!"

"Report Captain! Spaceship directional deviation: 12.36%, less than expected, urgent adjustment required!"

A large amount of information was summarized to Oliver, some important, some minor, and some needed urgent treatment. One by one, instructions were methodically sent over and passed to various staff members.

The escape velocity of the moon was about 2.4km/s, and now that the ship's speed was much greater than that, it was safe to say that breaking free of the moon was already a certain event, but it could not yet be taken lightly.

"I order, strip the outer engines."

"Captain's orders, strip the outer engines!"

With a single command, the faceplate engine finally accomplished its goal and separated from the ship. It had been destroyed by the nuclear blast and was in a terrible state of disrepair. But it also followed the ship and gained a relatively high speed, fully able to break free from the moon's gravity and become a wandering part of the solar system.

Perhaps, in a million years, it will be captured by some planet and become a pile of space junk flying in the sky. Perhaps, it will become a wandering comet-like existence.

"I order, open the small nuclear bomb direction adjustment plan, adjust the deviation degree."

"Captain's order, open the mini-nuke direction adjustment plan ... three, two, one, mini-nuke launch!"

A burst of intense light flashed behind the ship, a nuclear explosion triggered by a small nuclear bomb, but on a much smaller scale than a billion ton nuclear bomb. The original first plasma disc propulsion scheme was now used to reorient the flight.

"Report captain, ship direction scheduling completed, current direction deviation: 0.83%, ship speed: 28.66km/s, please instruct!"

"I order, start Alpha rocket direction adjustment plan!"

"Captain's order, Alpha rocket direction adjustment plan is on ..."

The machine roared, four rockets with a diameter of 10 meters reached out from around the ship, ejecting flaming air streams and began to precisely adjust the ship's direction of operation.

Space engineering, the difference of a hair is a thousand miles, maybe a deviation of one ten thousandth now will be magnified tens of millions or hundreds of millions of times in time, so this kind of fine adjustment is not possible with nuclear bombs, but also with rockets.

"Report, Alpha rocket successfully operated! Current spacecraft speed 28.68km/s, expected to reach Mars in 93 days!"

Oliver froze, suddenly dumbfounded, what was the next step?

It seems that ... has no other plans, right? All the plans have been completed?

Yes, all the plans have been completed, the human race has succeeded!

Success! Success! A kind of ecstasy from deep inside enthusiastic out, Oliver suddenly feel off the force, a sudden spread on the seat. Six months of life and death, six months of struggle, just for this short 10 minutes, success, finally success!

But he still struggled to stand up, roared: "Comrades, I declare, Noah plan, success!"

After the words, he fell asleep head first, these six months, he was really too tired, and now the tightly wound nerves sent down at once, simply can not resist.

With this announcement, the whole airship instantly boiled up and became a sea of joy. People cheered loudly, jumped and gave vent to their deepest joy.

Success! We have succeeded!

Professor Ding Yidong clenched his hands into fists and roared loudly, not caring about his image; Mr. Felix danced and played the violin he had not touched for six months; Dr. Roman was singing loudly, not caring about what he was singing; Quentin and his little girlfriend Judith were kissing passionately ...

People are partying and celebrating in all kinds of ways.

Humanity, just like that, has entered the interstellar age! Many people suddenly burst into tears, they were moved by themselves, moved by all mankind. People suddenly felt that for this minute of moving, all, all the blood and sweat all worth it!

This kind of moving, this kind of joy, not because the living conditions were improved, nor because they escaped the threat of death, but a kind of ideal was realized moving. This kind of touching, different from the material, it is purely spiritual sense.

In the world now, how many people will really realize their ideals, and how many will strive towards them? The "ideal" will always be forgotten by many people, and a beautiful kite will never float in their sky. Now, all people have paid for it with blood and sweat, struggling for the ideal, and they are deeply touched by themselves.

Human beings, though selfish, though greedy, though cowardly, have such and such shortcomings, but human beings have ideals, and are willing to fight for them and work hard for them, human beings, great because of ideals, down-to-earth because of building dreams.

We, human beings, will step towards the stars, we will be fearless!
