In space, the Hades spacecraft is advancing at a high speed of more than 150 kilometers per second.
As Hades flies past the orbit of Neptune, they are getting closer and closer to their final goal. , After spending nearly a year in space, Raymond Anthony couldn't wait any longer.
He even wished he could reach Pluto in the next second.
Ever since Doolittle reported to him that the Hades was expected to arrive at Pluto in five days, Raymond Anthony had asked Doolittle how far away from Pluto it was almost every day, as if every time he asked , you can arrive there one second earlier.
It was the same today.
When Doolittle finished his conversation with Raymond Anthony, Hull, who was sitting on the other side, smiled at him: "Why is our boss asking you for your arrival time again?"
Doolittle spread his hands helplessly.
Although approaching Pluto was extremely exciting for all the ships on the Hades, Raymond Anthony's reaction seemed to be a bit too much, which made Doolittle very upset.
Puzzled.
"Maybe he was worried about whether he would be able to arrive alive."
Hull made a casual joke, and Doolittle couldn't help but laugh after hearing it.
But none of them expected that Hull's joke was actually Raymond Anthony's true state of mind, because after nearly a year of flying, Raymond Anthony obviously felt much older.
The Hades has an artificial gravity system, as well as a complete ecological balance circle and a comfortable environment.
In particular, Raymond Anthony's cabin is no different from his home in Little Rock.
Coupled with the high-tech simulated scene, it can almost Let people feel the same life as the earth.
However, this is just "almost", not real.
No matter how realistic something is, it cannot be compared to the original, and the huge Hades is just a spaceship no matter how big it is.
The scope of its activities is very limited.
What's more, flying in space will always bring some psychological pressure.
Although Raymond Anthony is not an ordinary person, he cannot avoid this kind of pressure.
What’s more, another year has passed.
No matter how well he maintains his age and physical functions, he cannot stop his gradual aging.
In the eyes of Doolittle and Hull, the successful completion of the Hades mission is in sight, and final success is firmly in their hands.
Russia's Starry Sky spacecraft no longer poses a threat to them.
As early as a few months ago, Hades discovered that there seemed to be something wrong with Starry Sky again, and the distance between the two began to grow longer and longer.
But now, their distance has long exceeded the certain range.
Maybe the Starry Sky has returned early due to the condition of the spacecraft.
As for the Chinese spacecraft.
Doolittle had been very concerned about it from the beginning, but as time went by, the Hades failed to find the location of the Chinese spacecraft at all, as if the Chinese had never launched a spacecraft, which made him strange.
"You think, where will the Chinese be now?"
Thinking of this, Doolittle asked Hull.
Hull thought for a while, then shook his head: "I can't tell.
By the way, why did you suddenly think of asking the Chinese?"
Doolittle put his hands behind his head.
He leaned deeply on the back of the chair, but frowned slightly: "I just feel a little strange."
"strangeness" Doolittle pursed his lips and said: "It's just a feeling, and this feeling makes me very uncomfortable.
The Chinese spacecraft has not been under our control from the beginning, and now we don't know where it is.
Hull, don't you Isn’t it strange?”
Hull laughed and said: "I'm talking about my old friend Doolittle.
Have you become neurotic after staying in space for a long time?
I admit that the Chinese are a bit mysterious, but so what now we are approaching Pluto.
Orbit, and even left the Russians far away.
No matter how mysterious the Chinese are, it has nothing to do with us.
Okay, old friend, let’s think about what to do when we reach the goal.
As for the Chinese, haha, maybe they will.

It’s not necessarily a matter of just going around in space and then going back.”
Hull's words made Doolittle laugh, but after thinking about it carefully, Hull was right.
Although the Chinese spacecraft lifted off directly from the earth, Doolittle was very surprised.
As a senior American astronaut, Doolittle, like all the astronauts on the Hades, had great confidence in the powerful technology of the United States.
In their view, Hades is undoubtedly the best spacecraft that humans can build.
The Russians' spacecraft cannot compare with theirs, let alone the Chinese.
As Hull said, China may only use an opportunistic technology to complete ground launch, but after all, the overall technology is far inferior to the powerful United States.
According to this logic, the Chinese spacecraft may be farther away than the Russian Star Sky. , or maybe they had already returned due to technical problems.
Although Doolittle reluctantly convinced himself with this reason, he still felt vaguely uneasy for some reason.
However, this feeling was quickly forgotten by him, because at this time Hades was getting closer and closer to Pluto.
The last moment was coming.
When approaching Pluto, Hades performed the same deceleration control as Pioneer, and then maneuvered the spacecraft to approach Pluto's low-Earth orbit in space to observe Pluto first and then determine the next step.
Without relying on the powerful intelligent system of the Pioneer's Su Li to assist in maneuvering, the Hades's deceleration navigation was still very successful using only the Hades's own central computer system and the astronauts' rich driving experience.
Perfect.
This is enough to show the superb skills of Captain Doolittle and his friend Hull.
Secondly, there is no doubt that they are called one of the best astronauts in the United States and even the world.
"Maintain balanced deceleration and pay attention to the track entry angle" "Understood, slow down evenly and pay attention to the angle of cutting into the track" Now, they are very close to Pluto.
According to the current deceleration calculation, they will cut into Pluto's orbit in about 1 hour, 28 minutes and 32 seconds, and then rotate around Pluto in a satellite attitude.
At this time, Raymond Anthony, who could not hold himself back, came to the bridge in person.
"This is Pluto."
Sitting in the large seat specially prepared for him, Raymond Anthony stared at the gray-yellow planet slowly rotating in the universe.
At this moment, Raymond Anthony's face showed an indescribable look, and he seemed to be dozens of years younger all of a sudden.
"Mr.
Doolittle, please scan Pluto and let us see how many surprises it has."
Raymond Anthony raised his hand and pointed at Pluto.
Doolittle, who had been prepared for a long time, understood what he meant and immediately An order was issued to scan and detect the surface of Pluto.
After the command was issued, the central computer of the Hades spacecraft began to work.
The scanned data was collected and formed by the computer, and then gradually displayed on the screen.
The shape of the entire planet Pluto gradually became clearer from its outline.
After a while, a complete holographic image of Pluto was displayed in front of everyone.
When the simulation of Pluto was combined with electronic data, it began to rotate slowly, revealing the craters, canyons, etc. on its surface.
Various complex terrains, and when it rotated to a certain angle, everyone present exclaimed at the same time.
Even Raymond Anthony, who was sitting, could not control the shock and excitement in his heart and couldn't help but stand up. s: Here is the second update today.
Thank you all for your support and encouragement.
