Chapter 353 (1/2)

”No one speaks, so let's draw lots.” Tang knew that the risk of the first batch of landing was the greatest. After all, whether the performance of the shuttle could safely reach the landing site was unknown.

The first group of people going down is the most at risk, which is why there are only two people in the first two shuttles.

”I'll go!” One schizoid raised his hand first.

”I'll go too!” Seeing someone take the lead, a bold male astronaut also raised his hand.

”And us!” Two more people raised their arms. Both of them were recruited astronauts, which made Tang jiu0 admire their courage.

”Good! You can go Tang Jiu nodded at 0:00.

The four volunteers, who were the first to go to Mars, turned on their helmets and floated toward the shuttle parking area behind the spacecraft.

After passing through an airtight door, the four boarded the upper and lower shuttles on a wing.

At this time, the spacecraft has also changed orbit to the landing site above.

”The communication equipment is normal, the shuttle thermal insulation is normal, and all subsystems are normal! You can go The first landers gave the cameras thumbs up.

”Good luck to you!” Tang read silently and closed the electromagnetic locks attached to the two shuttles.

After the docking door between the shuttle and the spacecraft was closed, the two shuttles ejected a certain distance from the spacecraft, then started their thrusters and rushed down to the red planet below.

In the Mars-1 cockpit, the remaining six astronauts watched through the porthole as the lights on the two shuttles faded away.

The two shuttles alternately passed through the thin atmosphere of Mars and arrived at the landing site that had been identified on the blue star.

The landing site is located in the middle of a vast plain surrounded by mountains, where Mars's most famous sandstorm will be much less powerful.

Not far from the landing site, the deep pits formed by the drying up of the huge lake represent that there should be a large number of underground water sources in this area.

In this way, the first Mars forward base will no longer need to send spacecraft to the poles of Mars to get frozen water.

Because the gravity of Mars is only about one-third of that of the blue star, it is much less difficult for the shuttle to land vertically than on the blue star, so all shuttles are designed for vertical take-off and landing.

After the thrusters on the wings on both sides of the shuttle turned downward, the two shuttles slowly landed on the plain.

Four astronauts, wearing strong colonial armor, came out of the shuttle's open hatch step by step.

When the first astronaut put his foot on the land of Mars, another astronaut picked up his camera and recorded the moment.

This is the first time that human beings have come to Mars and left their first footprints on Mars!

”Pay attention to safety. It's not known whether there is any life on Mars! We must fight with great care! ” The schizoid, who was the leader of the landing team, sank into the communication network.

”Understand!” The team members nodded in response.
