Chapter 797 Mysterious Star

The operation of this kind of equipment is to shorten the space and thus increase the speed of the spacecraft, and it cannot provide forward power by itself.

So Jiang Cheng installed several galaxy-level engines on the Pioneer.

The galaxy-level engine is something that Jiang Cheng has developed a long time ago, and it is specially designed for spacecraft.

This galaxy-level engine cancels the working fluid of the traditional engine and can directly convert energy into propulsion.

After eliminating the waste of working fluid, the efficiency of this engine is greatly improved.

Compared with traditional chemical propulsion and mechanical propulsion, this new type of engine without working fluid is advanced by an unknown number of eras.

If Jiang Cheng hadn't developed it himself, it would take hundreds of years for humans to manufacture it.

It can be said that this most advanced engine is the core technology of the entire spacecraft.

Apart from the curvature engine and energy protection, this engine has the highest technological content.

It took Jiang Cheng several months to develop this kind of engine without working medium.

The galaxy-level engine designed by Jiang Cheng can provide huge power for the spacecraft and accelerate the spacecraft to half the speed of light.

Of course, if you want to continue to increase the speed, you need the curvature to draw the horse.

After all, the faster the speed, the more energy is needed to accelerate, and accelerating to half the speed of light is the limit of this kind of engine.

"The galaxy-level engine is running normally, and the propulsion is increasing, and it is expected to meet the take-off requirements in ten seconds.

Soon the engine in the power room started to run, providing strong power for the spacecraft.

When the galaxy-level engine started, the entire spacecraft began to vibrate.

The vibration spread from the power room to the bridge, causing Jiang Cheng to shake even when he was sitting on the seat.

This is not to say that the spacecraft's shock absorption system is not good enough to cause such a large vibration.

It's just because the power of this engine is so strong that there is such a big movement when it starts.

After the speed of the spacecraft increases, this vibration will disappear.

The power transmission is in progress, and the thrusters are working normally!

Immediately after that, when the thrusters start to start, the thrusters will move

The power generated in the force chamber is all returned to the nozzle and sprayed out.

Then the spacecraft will generate a huge thrust forward due to the reaction force.

The speed of the Pioneer will also increase continuously with the increase of propulsion until the acceleration reaches the maximum speed.

At this time, if you look from the outside, you can see a large amount of flames ejected from the tail of the spacecraft.

These flames exude such a blue light that they look so beautiful.

As these blue flames keep getting bigger, the propulsion force at the tail keeps getting bigger.

When the propulsion reaches the predetermined requirements, the Pioneer can fly towards the universe.

"The thrust meets the take-off requirements, ready to take off at any time!

After the entire set of start-up procedures are completed, the Pioneer can take off at any time.

After hearing that the take-off procedure was completed, Jiang Cheng directly bypassed the commander of the spacecraft and gave his order to everyone.

Trailblazer, take off now

When his voice echoed in the bridge, a staff member pressed the button to take off.

Following Jiang Cheng's order, the Pioneer slowly floated into the air and began to fly towards the sky.

Soon the Pioneer rushed out of the earth and entered the universe.

Jiang Cheng looked at the scenery outside the bridge, from the blue sky to the pitch-black universe, and gave the order to continue to accelerate.

Speed ​​up the spaceship!

At this time, the output power of the power room suddenly increased, and the speed of the Pioneer immediately increased.

Adjust the course, target Neptune!

In the end, Jiang Cheng told the destination of this trial voyage, the distant and mysterious Neptune.

Neptune is the farthest planet from Earth in the entire solar system.

Among all the eight planets, Neptune is the farthest, so Jiang Cheng chose Neptune as the target of this trial voyage.

Originally the farthest planet from Earth was Pluto, an object in the Kuiper Belt.

It's just that this planet was removed from the nine planets in 2006 due to size and volume issues. Now there are only eight planets in the solar system.

Since Pluto was downgraded from a planet to a dwarf planet, Neptune is the farthest from the Earth.

The distance between Neptune and the Earth is not constant, and it will change a lot due to the revolution.

On average, the distance from the Earth to Neptune is almost four billion kilometers.

The figure of four billion kilometers is very scary when you hear it, and it is so far away that it is unimaginable.

Fortunately, the speed of the Pioneer itself is half of the speed of light. Even if the curvature deduction is not used, it will only take a few hours to reach Neptune.

The revolution period of Neptune is 160 years, which means that it takes more than 100 years for this planet to orbit the sun once.

One year on Neptune is equivalent to one hundred and sixty years on Earth. It has to be said that this is a very wonderful thing.

The reason why Jiang Cheng chose Neptune as the destination for the test voyage is because this planet is far enough away from the earth.

If a place like Mars is at the speed of the Pioneer, it can be reached in less than 20 minutes.

Nothing can be tested in such a short period of time, but the sea trial over a long distance is not very good. If there is a problem, there is no way to solve it.

So Neptune, which is the farthest from the earth, is very suitable, and you can go and see this mysterious planet casually.

It is said that Neptune is mysterious because humans know too little about it. In history, only Voyager 2 has visited Neptune briefly.

But this short-term detection has obtained very little information. Human beings don't know much about Neptune, and all they know are some basic evidence.

Voyager 2 has probed Neptune on a rough road, allowing human beings to have a preliminary understanding of it.

Based on the data obtained from the detection, it can be calculated that the climate on Neptune is undoubtedly very harsh.

Here, because it is too far away from the sun, the temperature has reached a limit.

The low temperature of more than two hundred degrees below zero is very common on Neptune.

In addition to low temperatures, severe storms are also a feature on Neptune, where there are some of the most powerful storms in the solar system.

When Voyager 2 passed Neptune, it detected a wind speed of more than 2,000 kilometers per hour.

If this kind of wind speed appeared on the earth, it is estimated that a city would be blown away.

This kind of extreme climate is still very common on various planets, and the earth is much milder in comparison.

The current position of Neptune has been detected, and the course of the spacecraft is being adjusted!"

"Course adjustment is complete, continue to accelerate!
