Start with a blacksmith shop - Chapter 358 Water

“If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you hesitating? You are not a girl. Why are you hesitating here?”

When the team member heard what Snow Owl said about him, his face suddenly turned red. It was obvious that he understood the metaphor in his words.

“Why didn’t I realize before that you, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, is also an old pervert? You actually understand me!”

After he said these words, the snow owl kicked his butt with its foot. Fortunately, this team member reacted quickly and used his quick reaction speed to avoid it.

“Boy, I advise you to be kind and tell your problem quickly. Don’t keep it to me!”

After hearing this, he immediately regained his serious expression and asked his question.

“What I don’t understand is that you said that this volcano has erupted many times. Since the volcano has erupted many times, there should be many flash floods accompanying the volcanic eruption.

Such a large amount of water, but after we discovered this volcano, we found no surface water around here. What I want to ask is where did that water go? “

After hearing his question, everyone at the scene also reacted. Yes, there were so many flash floods in the past and such huge water rushed out of the river, but why was there no surface water found before?

At this moment, everyone’s eyes on this team member also showed slight changes, but now they were puzzled as to why such a situation occurred, and then they turned their questioning eyes to the snowy owl next to them again.

“Don’t look at me like this. In fact, I have figured out this problem before. As long as you listen to my speculation, you should be able to understand what this problem is all about!”

Speaking of this, the Snow Owl seemed to be trying to trick everyone on purpose. He was trying to trick everyone, but the team members didn’t buy his fault at all. They rushed up and surrounded him in the center. As long as he didn’t say anything, This showed his momentum of rectifying the Fa on the spot.

Snow Owl looked at the performance of the team members at the moment, and was afraid that they would do something to disgrace his wife, so he immediately answered and refused to sell anything.

“Okay, I said, I said everything. In fact, this is easy to understand. I speculate that the surface water should have been evaporated.

After evaporation, because Mars’ atmosphere, which is only 1% of the Earth’s thickness, cannot trap water, the water vapor slowly floats higher and higher, and eventually escapes into space.

Of course, water will also seep into the underground of Mars, and I think a considerable part of the water seeped into the ground again and became a member of the groundwater again.

This is why the water that was sprayed out of the ground disappeared, and this is also where I speculate that the water will eventually go! “

The team members who can be selected as astronauts are all extremely smart people. After Snow Owl said this, he immediately understood the secret.

They also secretly scolded themselves for being stupid for not even thinking of such a simple thing. In fact, this is not their fault, because none of them have the awareness to be on Mars, and they are still measuring the events on Mars based on the standards on Earth, so they failed to react.

To put it bluntly, the destination of this water is actually very simple. After the water spurts out from the ground, it creates a river on the surface. After the large amount of water in the volcano is extinguished, the water stops flowing out.

When new water with higher heat does not appear, the surface water that came out earlier will eventually turn into ice pimples as the temperature of Mars becomes lower and lower.

Whether it is the lake at the end of the water flow or the water in the river, all the water on the surface will turn into ice lumps.

The current surface temperature of Mars is very low because it is in the cold season. Water is still ice and will not evaporate.

But Mars is not always in the cold season. There is also a warm season on Mars. Although the temperature in the warm season on Mars is not much higher, it is still about 20 degrees!

At a temperature of about 20 degrees, the surface water will no longer be in the form of solid ice. After it turns into water again, even if it evaporates slowly at a temperature of 20 degrees, just this surface water will still evaporate. Evaporated cleanly.

When all the water evaporates and seeps underground, there will eventually be no water at all on the surface.

So far, the astronauts have made reasonable speculations about all matters related to the Mars explosion. After obtaining these speculations, the astronauts are quite confident in the conclusions they have drawn.

Everyone had the pleasure of exploring some unsolved mystery of the world, which made them feel a hearty and refreshing feeling.

The Martian water samples they had obtained before were sent to the testing instrument. While everyone was still intoxicated, the testing instrument made a beeping sound.

When everyone heard these prompts, they all came to their senses immediately, and all their eyes were fixed on the detection instrument.

Everyone knew that this should be the test result. Snow Owl hurriedly came to them and checked the test value displayed on the instrument.

Holding the detection data in his hand, one of the team members came over with a personal terminal in his hand. What was displayed on the terminal was the individual data on the surface water on the earth.

Snow Owl held the Mars surface water detection report in his hand and found a seat. After sitting down, he looked at the data and began to read. While he was reading, the other team members’ attention was all focused on their personal terminals. On data indicators of Earth’s surface water.

Just like this, the Snow Owl read it one by one, and the other team members checked it one by one. When the data came down one by one, they all met the data safety indicators of the earth’s surface water. Of course, this was except that one of them had a high iron content.

“Damn it, head, hurry up and move. Except for the iron that exceeds the standard, this water is simply the best mineral water. Let’s hurry up and go to the lake that hasn’t turned into ice pimples.

The water on our plane really needs to be changed. Although the water has been strictly filtered, I feel a little uncomfortable when I think that my own urine has been re-filtered.

There was no way to replace it before, so there was nothing we could do about it. Now that we have a usable water source, let’s quickly replace them all! “

After listening to what this team member said, everyone else’s faces became anxious, especially when the team member just talked about urine, a chill flashed across the other people’s faces, obviously on the topic of water circulation. , which is considered a default taboo on their plane.

A trace of disgust flashed across Snow Owl’s face, and then he slapped the player who just spoke hard on the shoulder.

“You kid, didn’t we make an agreement before that we wouldn’t even mention this matter until we die? You really deserve a beating!

Okay, since this guy has spoken out everyone’s thoughts, let’s go to that small lake quickly, follow this guy’s suggestion, and change all the water on our plane! “

As soon as the Snow Owl finished speaking, several astronauts rushed to the driver’s seat impatiently, and under their control, the aerospace plane flew towards the small lake at the end of the water flow.

At this moment, Snow Owl is still looking at the water quality test report in his hand. Although he has long known that water is not unique to the earth in the universe, he did not expect that just after coming out of the earth, they arrived. On the second planet, they found a source of drinkable water.

This is really a bit of an unexpected surprise. The Snow Owl is actually thinking about the impact of the discovery of drinkable water sources on Mars.

It seems that within the scope of his understanding, as long as Mars can be transformed by artificial intervention, the conditions for large-scale immigration to Mars will be much better than those for immigration to the moon.

As for Mars, it has an atmosphere. No matter how thin it is, it is still an atmosphere, and the directional conditions of Mars are really similar to those of the Earth.

Now, except that there is no magnetic field on Mars, everything meets the conditions for immigration to Mars.

Where there is water, there is hope. This is a saying that people often say in the water-scarce areas of the Northwest. Snowy Owl believes that the same applies to Mars.

While thinking this, the Snow Owl was lost in thought until the aerospace plane came to the end of the water source again, and then everyone got off the plane.

After that, there was a period of busy work. First, they took the plane out of the earth, drained out all the water that had circulated in everyone’s bodies for an unknown number of times, and then used Martian water to clean the plane’s water storage system twice. After doing all this, Only then was it filled with Mars water again.

When everyone returned to the plane, Snow Owl stopped paying attention to others. He came to his room and began to sort out information, including reports on everything that happened after the Mars explosion.

What happened after that, strictly speaking, was actually more meaningful than the volcanic eruption of Mars.

Because they found water on Mars that could be used. Except for a trace of iron that exceeded the standard, all other indicators of this water met the standards of mineral water on Earth.

In other words, they found drinking water for humans on extraterrestrial planets. The importance of this is self-evident.

They edited the important shots from the relevant videos they had collected before, and added all the measured data at the end. At the end, they also added their speculations about the series of things that happened on Mars. Put it in.

After doing all this, Snow Owl came out of the room. When he came to the cockpit again, he saw all the team members standing guard in front of the water machine.

Seeing everyone’s performance, Snow Owl also smiled knowingly. After smiling, he also joined the queue waiting for a drink of water.

The water circulation and purification system in the aircraft was running, and everyone was waiting at the water outlet for the water to be produced. Finally, not long after, the water machine beeped.

All the astronauts couldn’t wait to take out their own cups, grab them and start drinking.

After everyone filled themselves with water, the Snow Owl said to everyone: “Comrades, we have drunk enough water. Now we should do some business. Next, we will ascend into space. In space Lieutenant General sends our current situation back to Earth.”

Under the control of a few people, the aerospace plane slowly passed through the thin atmosphere of Mars, went straight into the universe, and sent out the situation description compiled by the Snow Owl.

After they sent the specific situation, they returned to Mars again. For them, the mission on Mars had just begun, and various mysteries on Mars were also waiting for them to explore.

On Earth, the staff at the Mars Mission Command Center at the Beiping Headquarters of the Kyushu Space Agency have just fully accepted the volcanic eruption event that Snow Owl and the others sent back from Mars.

Just when the experts here were just about to go home and have a good rest, a progress bar popped up again on the big screen in the command center. Everyone on the scene was shocked when they saw this scene.

No, these people on Mars are too diligent. How long has it been since they last sent a message? Now they are sending something back again?

Everyone present in the command center focused their attention on the big screen, staring at the progress bar that was running on the screen.

When the on-site commander in the command center saw the progress bar showing the file being received, a smile immediately appeared on his face, but what was incomprehensible was the smile. He didn’t know whether he was smiling happily or smiling bitterly.

After the on-site command results, I turned my head to the experts who packed up their belongings and felt that they wanted to go home and rest.

“It seems that your idea of ​​going back to rest is in vain. I think even if I let you go now, you will definitely not leave this command center.

Haha, everyone should follow my arrangements. I will have someone arrange a place for you to rest. You go and have a rest first. After the data sent back from Mars is received, I will have someone call you. “

The experts on the scene all shook their heads after hearing the conductor’s words. They were not only shaking their heads, but also staring at the progress entries on the screen.

Seeing everyone’s reaction, the on-site commander knew that he couldn’t persuade them anymore and could only let everyone go. However, he still did a good job in terms of logistical support.

The progress bar was still increasing very slowly. People staring at the progress bar were all complaining about the speed of information transmission between the two planets. The speed was so slow.

No matter how anxious everyone present is, they can’t change the speed of data transmission, and the progress bar is still growing slowly at the previous speed.

While everyone was still staring at the progress bar, Li Zhenhua, who was at his home in Dongshan, had just received the data sent back from Mars last time from a soldier.

After going through a series of strict signing procedures, Li Zhenhua finally got this top-secret information.

At this moment, he was as confused as he could about the information in his hand, because no one had told him what the content of this information was about before.

After the soldier completed handing over the information, he left his side, leaving only Li Zhenhua who was still holding the information and wondering.
