Chapter 294 (1/2)
The site of landing on Mars is a relatively flat sand, where the other two spaceships of futuristic technology company also dock.
”President Zhang, welcome to Mars.”
When Zhang Wei and his family set foot on Mars in their spacesuits, they were immediately warmly welcomed by 40 astronauts. The 40 astronauts were left behind in two spaceships, while the other 160 astronauts were scattered around Mars to investigate.
Zhang Wei can't help laughing when he hears the words. ”Only one month on Mars, have you become a Martian?”
”When you come to Mars, you are Martian. President Zhang, you are also Martian now.”
The astronauts laughed and said that some of them have been away from the earth for more than four months. Now they have a different kind of cordiality to see the visitors from the earth.
”Why is the sun blue on Mars?”
At this time, Dad suddenly surprised.
”How blue the sun is, how strange it is!”
My mother, Ren father and Ren mother also look at the sky. It's the time of sunset. Only on the horizon, a blue sun is hanging in the sky. It's beautiful and amazing.
”This is the scattering effect of light. The atmosphere of Mars is thin, and there are many and large dust particles. Mill scattering mainly occurs. The scattering wavelength is red light with the same size as its own particles. The red part of the sunlight is scattered in the line of sight direction, so the sunset seen will be blue. And the atmosphere on earth scatters blue light, so the sunset on earth is orange
Zhang Wei explained with a smile, ”when we finish the transformation of Mars and let the dust particles in the atmosphere fall to the ground with the rain, the sun will look like the earth from Mars.”
It was getting dark soon. Zhang Wei and his family had a small party on the spaceship. They listened to the astronauts introduce the new things they found on Mars. Then they began to rest and refresh themselves.
The next day.
Zhang Wei and his family got up early to start their trip to Mars.
However, Mars doesn't seem to welcome these tourists. Before they get out of the spaceship, the brain of the spaceship reminds them, ”boss, there is a super tornado sweeping here. It's expected to arrive in 10 minutes. Please don't leave the spaceship for safety reasons.”
This tornado, with a diameter of more than 40 meters, a height of more than one kilometer, and a wind speed of more than 60 meters per second, carries a lot of dust. These dust are different from the dust on the earth. They are red Martian sand mixed with a lot of iron oxide particles. If people wearing space suits are involved in them, there is a great chance that the space suits will be worn on Mars. Later, Humans will be inundated with endless Martian sand. These very small Martian sands also have micro static electricity, they will attach to the surface of any object, or even drill into the moving objects inside the machine, causing damage to the machine. In the movie ”Mars rescue”, the protagonist mark had to clean the dust on the solar cell array outside the living quarters with a brush every day. However, the spacecraft's energy shield can effectively isolate the dust.
