Chapter 800 Action

Looking at Saturn from a close distance, it looks like a ball made up of many rings.

The khaki-yellow surface of the planet, together with the circle of the Zhou Kingdom, looks indescribably beautiful.

Because the speed of the Pioneer was too fast, Jiang Cheng could not watch Saturn for a long time, and soon the Pioneer skipped Saturn and continued to fly towards Ruo Neptune.

Jiang Cheng has nothing to regret if he can't take a good look at Saturn.

Anyway, if you have time in the future, you can come here casually, or this trial voyage is more important.

After watching the scenery of Saturn, Jiang Cheng sat back in his seat satisfied.

Leading the way to the scenery of different planets in the solar system is also the main purpose of Jiang Cheng's following Ruo.

Because there was nothing to see now, Jiang Cheng sat back obediently.

The rest is the journey from Saturn to Uranus, but this time Jiang Cheng can't see Uranus.

Because Uranus is on the other side of the orbit, running on the back of the sun, and it is not on the same side of the orbit as Neptune.

The Pioneer will not take a detour at such a long distance, so if you want to see it, you have to wait for the next time.

After watching the scenery outside the spaceship, Jiang Cheng quietly waited for the spaceship to arrive at its destination.

After several hours of flight, the Pioneer finally arrived at the end of the test voyage. The appearance of Neptune, the most distant planet in the solar system, slowly appeared in Jiang Cheng's eyes, and he had to get up and walk to the ship again. In the front section of the bridge, carefully observe this mysterious planet.

The planet has a bluish appearance, especially from a little distance, Neptune appears to be filled with sea water.

Maybe that's how Neptune got its name, it looks like a planet filled with sea water.

Neptune, the most distant planet from Earth, has now lifted the veil on its own face, revealing its mysterious visage.

The whole Neptune is all Yingying light blue, which looks very beautiful.

This blue color is not because Neptune is full of sea water, it has nothing to do with water points.

Neptune appears this color because its atmosphere is filled with methane.

Methane gives Neptune a light blue color, which is why the planet seems to be filled with seawater, which has nothing to do with real seawater.

The reason why Neptune was originally named was because the planet looked like it was covered by sea water, so it was named after the sea god in Roman mythology.

In fact, there is not even liquid water on Neptune, let alone the seawater that covers the entire surface of the planet.

So Neptune's name doesn't match his state, this is not the leader of the Sea God, it's just a beautiful fantasy of human beings.

Jiang Cheng's interest in Neptune is still high, at least the appearance of this planet makes him very fond of it.

Seeing that the light blue planet in front of him keeps getting bigger, Jiang Cheng's desire for knowledge becomes even stronger.

This time Jiang Cheng came to Neptune on the Pioneer, not just for the spacecraft's imitation trial flight.

Detecting Neptune is also an important purpose, which is why Jiang Cheng decided on the destination of this trial voyage.

Neptune has never been landed by a probe, and it is a completely unknown land for humans.

Except for the brief passing accident of Voyager 2, humans know nothing about Neptune.

Humans don't know anything about what is on this planet and what the specific conditions on the surface are.

It is precisely because of Neptune's mystery to human beings that Jiang Cheng wants to explore it.

Jiang Cheng specially brought a probe on the Pioneer this time, just to land on Neptune to explore it.

While Jiang Cheng was still admiring the beauty of Neptune, a crew member walked up to him.

"Captain, now that the spacecraft has reached the orbit of Neptune, do you want to slow down?

Now everyone is used to reporting the situation to Jiang Cheng, completely treating him as their own captain.

The real captain has been ignored by everyone now, only Ruojiang Cheng is there to command.

After the spacecraft arrived at Neptune, it had to decelerate for a period of time before it could approach Neptune's orbit.

If the Trailblazer continues to maintain its current speed, it will hit its head on Neptune.

If it hits Neptune at such a fast speed, even one person on the entire spaceship may not be able to survive.

No one wants to see this kind of situation, so now we must slow down immediately.

Decelerating from half the speed of light to stillness does not mean that it can be reduced by extinction. The spacecraft needs to slowly drop from a speed of 150,000 kilometers per second to stillness little by little.

The entire deceleration process will take a while, so the crew came to ask Jiang Cheng for his opinion.

Start slowing down immediately, and slowly dock the spacecraft to the orbit of Neptune.

"Remember not to get too close to Neptune, lest the spacecraft be captured by Neptune's gravity.

After hearing the crew's inquiry, Jiang Cheng turned his head and gave his instructions. Following Jiang Cheng's order to slow down, the propellers on the Pioneer adjusted their direction, and began to spray flames in the opposite direction, resulting in an explosion in the opposite direction. thrust.

This thrust will continue to slow the spacecraft until the Trailblazer can dock smoothly in Neptune's orbit.

It took more than ten minutes to accelerate to the highest speed of the spacecraft, and of course it would take the same time to decelerate. This is determined by the power of the spacecraft, and it is impossible to go faster.

After more than ten minutes of speed, the spacecraft slowly approached Neptune

Now the entire Neptune has become very huge in Jiang Cheng's eyes

Observing Neptune from the entire location is a completely different picture.

The planet that originally looked like sea water can now see the flow of layers.

Pale blue clouds move at surface altitude, the result of storms on Neptune

Don't forget that the storm on Neptune is the most violent in the solar system, with a maximum speed of more than 2,000 kilometers per hour.

The landscape created by such a violent storm still looks magnificent.

Jiang Cheng saw fast-moving storms one after another, constantly colliding with Neptune.

When the Pioneer finally came to a standstill, the trial was half done.

The next step is to explore Neptune, and then you can set off to return to Earth.

At this time, Jiang Cheng sat back in the captain's exclusive seat and began to direct the crew to land the detector.

Start to release the detector, and pay attention to the status of the detection detector.

Don't let the speed of the probe be too fast, the atmosphere of Neptune is full of methane, too fast speed will make the probe burn.

After Jiang Cheng finished talking about the precautions, Jiang Cheng's crew began to take action.
