"Slow down and stop the experiment."

Zhang Zhai looked at the speed that had stabilized on the holographic screen and said calmly.

As Zhang Zhai issued the order, the anti-gravity box began to gradually reduce its speed.

As the speed of the anti-gravity box gradually decreased, the color of the afterimage gradually dimmed, and the strong wind whipped up in the laboratory gradually subsided.

Finally, the anti-gravity box stopped again and stood steadily in the air.

After waiting for the anti-gravity box to cool down for a period of time, Zhang Zhai re-entered the laboratory.

Even if the temperature in the laboratory has been adjusted through the air circulation system, you can still feel the temperature difference between the inside and outside the moment you step into the laboratory.

Affected by the severe friction with the air, the temperature inside the laboratory is several degrees higher than outside.

Walking to the central area of ​​the laboratory, Zhang Zhai looked at the anti-gravity box suspended in the air.

At this moment, the high-temperature protective layer specially added to the anti-gravity surface for the experiment has completely melted. The partially melted and cooled high-temperature protective layer is wrapped around the anti-gravity box, making its surface look gray-white, and the overall shape is also somewhat deformed.

After glancing at the anti-gravity box, Zhang Zhai stepped out of the laboratory again.

"Inform Chief Engineer Chen of the manufacturing area and ask the manufacturing area to continue manufacturing new modified anti-gravity boxes." Zhang Zhai said as he walked towards the outside of the laboratory,

"In addition, inform Professor Hu that Academician Gan is waiting for me in the small conference room on the fifth floor. I will be there within ten minutes."

"Okay, father." A1's voice sounded instantly.

…

Time passes slowly,

Ten minutes later, in the small conference room.

"...Mr. Zhang, do you mean to launch a manned landing plan on Mars after the Mars city is built?" Professor Hu and Academician Gan were sitting on the sofa opposite and couldn't help but get up and ask.

“Not after construction, but at the same time, the manned landing on Mars and the Mars city construction plan are carried out at the same time.

Based on the distance between the earth and the fire, it is enough to complete the Mars city construction plan before the manned spacecraft reaches Mars." Zhang Zhai explained while looking at Professor Hu and Academician Gan.

"It's like the Moon Palace City construction plan?"

"Yes, it's just like the Moon Palace City construction plan."

Professor Hu and Academician Gan were silent for a moment, then looked at each other.

"It is definitely imperative to land a man on Mars, but... Mr. Zhang, you don't want to take the risk yourself and participate in the first manned landing on Mars, do you?" Academician Gan asked rhetorically.

"Mr. Zhang, if it's just manned landing on Mars, I agree. This is an inevitable step, otherwise there would be no need to build a Mars city.

But if Mr. Zhang wants to say that you want to personally participate in the first Mars landing plan, then I firmly disagree!"

Professor Hu also took the conversation and said seriously,

"Landing on Mars and landing on the moon are completely different concepts. Let's not talk about the risks, let's just talk about the distance between the earth and the fire. At the current extreme navigation speed, one way will take 44 days, and the round trip will take nearly three months.

Mr. Zhang, do you think Zhaicheng Space Center can leave you for three months?"

"What if it doesn't take such a long voyage?" Zhang Zhai asked with a smile.

When Professor Hu and Academician Gan heard this, they did not reply directly and looked at each other.

"Mr. Zhang, are you trying to set a trap for us?" Academician Gan looked at Zhang Zhai with a smile and said,

"Mr. Zhang, has there been a breakthrough in the anti-gravity box's speed-increasing research?"

Zhang Zhai smiled when he heard this, then nodded,

"Through a new research direction, some breakthroughs have been made in antigravity box research."

"Mr. Zhang, how much has the speed of the anti-gravity box increased?" Professor Hu suddenly became excited when he heard Zhang Zhai's confirmation.

"The speed measurement experiment was just completed ten minutes ago. The limit speed of the newly modified anti-gravity box is Mach 133.5, which is about three times that of the previous anti-gravity box." Zhang Zhai looked at Professor Hu and the two of them and responded.

"At three times the speed, the one-way trip to Mars can be reduced to about 15 days..." Professor Hu whispered excitedly, and then changed his tone,

"However, Mr. Zhang, I still don't agree with you personally participating in the Mars landing plan.

Even if the voyage time is shortened by three times, this is still a plan for an ultra-long voyage, and the accidents and risks that may occur during the process are difficult to predict."

"Professor Hu, Academician Gan, I do have the idea to personally participate in the Mars manned landing plan." Zhang Zhai stopped his smile and said solemnly,

"You can understand it as my selfishness, or I just want to lead by example."

Zhang Zhai looked at Professor Hu and Academician Gan and continued,

"As I said when I participated in the moon landing plan before, I made the plan and designed the spacecraft. If I am not willing to take risks, how can I expect others to be willing to take risks and get out of the earth?

Step into the starry sky?”

Academician Gan and Professor Hu began to think deeply after hearing this.

After a while, the two looked at each other and made a decision.

"Mr. Zhang, it may be difficult for us to dissuade you on this matter." Academician Gan looked into Zhang Zhai's eyes and continued,

"If Mr. Zhang insists on personally participating in the Mars manned landing plan, you must allow us to add some additional protective measures to ensure your absolute safety, Mr. Zhang."

A smile appeared on Zhang Zhai's face and he nodded.

…

Time passed slowly, and after it was confirmed that Zhang Zhai would personally participate in the Mars landing, the topic got back on track.

"...Professor Hu and Academician Gan are still in charge of improving the Mars manned landing plan." Zhang Zhai stopped his smile and said seriously.

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, we will come up with a detailed plan as soon as possible."

"In addition, I plan to replace the anti-gravity box of the Suiren while it is sailing to speed up the Suiren's speed and the progress of the ground-fire node transmission system construction plan." Zhang Zhai told Academician Gan and the two.

Hearing this, Academician Gan and Professor Hu nodded one after another.

"The implementation progress of the ground and fire node transmission system construction plan has exceeded half. If the new anti-gravity box is replaced, the Suiren's first voyage mission and the construction of the ground and fire node transmission system should be completed within a week." Academician Gan responded with a smile.

road.

"I have handed over the manufacturing task of the new anti-gravity box to the manufacturing area." Zhang Zhai looked at the two people, paused and continued,

"The replacement and modification of the Suiren's anti-gravity system also requires the research team to come up with an execution plan as soon as possible. I don't want the Suiren to disintegrate directly after replacing the anti-gravity box."

"Mr. Zhang, don't worry. The execution plan will be produced as soon as possible and the progress of the plan will not be delayed." Professor Hu replied firmly.

"It seems that I have been very busy during this period." Academician Gan said with a smile.

Hearing this, the three people in the small conference room couldn't help but smile.

…

After chatting about the main business, they chatted with each other for a few more words.

After Zhang Zhai inquired about the progress and details of various plans.

Academician Gan and Professor Hu left the conference room one after another.

The small conference room suddenly became quiet.

Zhang Zhai got up from the sofa and walked to the window.

Feel the warm sunlight shining on your body through the window.

Zhang Zhai looked through the window towards the launch area.

After the daily interstellar navigation was transferred to the interstellar port, the launch area became quiet again.

In the launch area at this moment, only the Yanhuang was still parked quietly.

Zhang Zhai looked at Yanhuang Hao with a smile on his face.

After a while.
Chapter completed!
