Chapter 1027: Mars Colonization Plan
Even the closest calculated distance from Mars to Earth was hundreds of times the distance between Earth and Moon A distance that would even take light three minutes to travel Under the current technical conditions, it was unrealistic to establish a supply line to and from the Mars colony and Celestial City
At present, the research plan developed by the Aerospace Research Institute in the apocalypse was to design an engine capable of ine must accelerate a million-ton transport shi+p to escape velocity 60,000 kilometers per hour, so the duration of the trip would be between a week to half abefore the war, no engine drawings were available for reference So the engine ies of their predecessors
Jiang Chen felt this was the greatest he space Colonization shi+p could accelerate to one-tenth of the speed of light However, the researchers involved in the design of the engine were invaluably talented and definitely didn’t stay on the wasteland
Since establishi+ng a supply line was i, it meant that the colony on Mars her resource utilization efficiency than the lunar base, and the production cost of its equipe
At the end of the tour, Kelvin gave Jiang Chen a number
The cost of the entire facility totalled 25 billion XND, and 90 of the structure h industrial 3D printers It only took 20 people to burn off theChen feel the pain
On the first Friday after his return to Xin, it was time to launch the Mars Colonization Plan
On top of the offshore platfor Chen sent twenty colonists to the space elevator After shaking hands with them, they were personally presented with conition of their contributions and sacrifices for the space industry
Upon arrival in Celestial City, they would receive a week of training At the end of the training, they would board the shi+p and sail to Mars tens of millions of kilometers away
For now, it was a one-way ticket In the next few years or even a dozen years, they would spend their lives on the barren Mars At least until return flights were possible, they wouldn’t be able to see their loved ones even once
The scenes of parting were touching All the people present were in tears, witnessing the faoodbye Media from all over the world recorded this historic lobal community
The responses from NASA and spaceX were quite calm after Celestial Trade beat them to a completely manned mission to Mars They had fully prepared for this day since the completion of the space elevator
spaceX silently canceled their Mars inally scheduled to start in 2020 and focused on adjusting its business focus to the development of asteroid resources
However, all this had nothing to do with Jiang Chen Regardless of whether spaceX adjusted its business strategy, he never considered them a competitor in the space race
