Chapter 1087 Learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, and you will not be afraid to travel all over Mars

Wei Zhou.

Shen Zong was holding a copy of "The Martian" and reading.

As a well-known sci-fi writer in Weizhou, Shen Zong was shortlisted for the best medium-length science fiction award of this year's Galaxy Awards.

He thought he would win the prize.

In the end, he didn't expect to be robbed of the grand prize by a novel written by Qin Zhou.

to be honest.

Shen Zong was a little unwilling.

Shen Zong believed that the other two finalists should also be very unwilling, so after the release of "The Martian", he immediately bought a copy to take a good look at where he lost.

...

This novel meets the standard of medium and long novels.

The story originated from the series of Mars landing missions named Ares-God of War by Weizhou Space Administration.

The protagonist Mark is one of the six pilots on the third landing mission.

On the sixth day of landing, they encountered a huge sandstorm. Unfortunately, Mark was hit by the antenna and separated from his teammates. He tried his best to rescue his teammates and returned to the Messenger spacecraft in space with the only escape pod.

Everyone thought Mark was dead.

Weizhou Aerospace Administration received the news and held a press conference to announce the failure of the Ares-3 mission and the sacrifice of astronaut Mark.

This is the background of the novel.

...

After reading the previous background explanation, Shen Zong raised his eyebrows slightly.

Unexpectedly, the story background of Chu Kuang's book happened in Weizhou.

It seems that Chu Kuang's wave is really aimed at Weizhou readers.

But this background is not abrupt.

Because the level of science and technology in Bluestar Weizhou is indeed very high, almost comparable to that of Zhongzhou.

When writing books, many writers of Blue Star may not necessarily use their own continent as the background of the story for the development of the plot. After all, the scripts of each continent of Blue Star are unified, and there is no problem of acceptance by readers of this continent.

also.

Regarding the description of aviation technology in the novel, Shen Zong did not find any loopholes.

Chu Kuang's knowledge base in this area surprised even Shen Zong, a Weizhou science fiction writer.

After all, he defeated himself.

There are indeed two brushes.

But only this level, of course, is not enough to convince Shen Zong.

With his fingers dipped in saliva, Shen Zong turned the page and continued reading.

book.

Of course the main character Mark will not die, he is inserted into the abdomen by the antenna, and the space suit leaks a hole because of this.

"Hypoxic crisis?"

Shen Zong subconsciously thought so, but when he saw the following, his cheeks became hot.

He was slapped in the face.

Mark will not be starved of oxygen.

On the contrary, what Mark is afraid of is that the oxygen concentration is too high.

Because one of the important functions of the space suit is to reduce the concentration of carbon dioxide produced by breathing.

It will first use a simple chemical device to absorb carbon dioxide. When the absorber is exhausted, it will adopt the bloodletting mode to automatically open the vents. Although this removes carbon dioxide, it also reduces the air pressure in the spacesuit. In order to maintain The barometric spacesuit will automatically inflate the interior, and when the limited nitrogen is emptied, it will be repressurized with pure oxygen.

We must know that the blue star where human beings live, the oxygen concentration in the atmosphere is only 21%, and human beings can breathe comfortably.

Excessively high concentrations of oxygen can burn the nervous system, lungs and eyes.

Of course Shen Zong understood this kind of thing.

It's just that Shen Zong obviously doesn't understand the function of the spacesuit enough.

Difficult to return to the breath cabin that was not destroyed by the storm, Mark finally took off his helmet and took a big breath of air.

Thus begins the Martian daily life of a human botanist and mechanical engineer.

After checking all the equipment, Mark calculated and concluded:

The food he has left can only last for less than a year at most, and the ground rescue will not arrive on Mars until four years at the earliest.

He has to solve the food problem!

Seeing Shen Zong smiling here, he already guessed what the protagonist was going to do.

Wei Zhou has a science fiction novel called "Mars Base Project".

In order to make food on Mars, the protagonist in it used his own knowledge to describe the experimental description of soilless cultivation of vegetable plants.

Chu Kuang's protagonist will definitely do the same!

really.

What happened next was as Shen Zong expected.

The protagonist thought of the method of soilless cultivation to solve the food problem.

However, the next moment, Shen Zong's smile disappeared.

He was slapped in the face by the idea of ​​this book again!

Mark in the book quickly rejected the idea of ​​soilless cultivation on the grounds that it requires a lot of nutrient solution.

And the nutrient solution in the habitat cabin is not enough for Mark to toss.

This thing is a consumable and cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

To solve the food problem on Mars, the correct solution is:

Grow potatoes!

Shen Zong's eyes widened!

Because not only was he slapped in the face by Chu Kuang, but even the food solution of the "Mars Base Project" was rejected by this book!

However, Shen Zong had to admit:

Mark's idea is more feasible, and the reasons given are even more impeccable!

Without water, Mark used his chemical knowledge to produce water.

There are ready-made potatoes, vacuum-packed, this stuff is notoriously good, and the output is not low.

stool.

urine.

The fertilizer excreted by Mark himself is the best "nutrient solution" for growing potatoes!

"sharp!"

After being slapped in the face twice in a row, Shen Zong's expression became serious. He was not angry, but just admired Chu Kuang's wealth of knowledge!

And the following plot made Shen Zong even more admirable:

Mark's Survival on Mars, every operation is very reasonable and feasible!

The knowledge involved in this is so big that Shen Zong, a science fiction writer, feels ignorant!

However, this process is still ups and downs written by Chu Kuang.

For example, in the process of making water, Mark ignored the oxygen ratio imbalance caused by his own breathing, which caused the experiment to explode.

Another example……

After a long time, the potatoes were harvested, but the air pressure in the habitat warehouse unexpectedly became unbalanced, resulting in the death of all the potato seedlings!

At this time, Mark no longer had enough conditions to grow potatoes.

The food crisis reappeared.

What are you going to do now?

Shen Zong didn't realize that he was completely attracted by the plot, he was eager to see how Mark continued his way of survival!

in the continuation of the plot.

A twist happened.

The headquarters of the Blue Star Space Agency discovered that Mark was still alive.

at the same time.

Mark is also trying to find a way to contact the space agency.

He actually found the rover with communication function that Wei Zhou had sent to Mars decades ago!

The machine failed and he fixed it himself.

This process is not a brief description, but a detailed description of Mark's specific operations.

For example, how Mark used solar energy and nuclear reaction technology to build his own travel tools and so on.

A series of coquettish operations!

What Shen Zong watched was astonishing!

And the book's imagination is more than that.

Mark didn't know that everything about him on Mars had been broadcast live globally, and when he contacted the ground, he would also swear and speak yellow accents, so that the entire ground and space agency was stunned...

Sci-fi elements.

dramatic component.

Full of both!

Even the characterization of the protagonist Mark is vivid on the paper. This male protagonist who copes with all kinds of difficulties on Mars with an optimistic and positive attitude is really loved by Shen Zong, who is a reader!

Not to mention.

There are also scenes in this story that make people laugh.

For example, Mark found his teammate's music player, but the teammate's player only had Xianyu's songs.

So what accompanied Mark through loneliness were those songs by Xianyu.

Shen Zong has also heard some of these songs. After all, Xianyu became famous all over the world at the Blue Concert, and many people found his works to appreciate.

As for the end of the story...

This is what moved Shen Zong the most.

After paying a certain price, some of Mark's teammates may even have to bear the risk of being court-martialed, they resolutely drove the spaceship back to Mars!

They're going to save Mark!

The novel does not end in tragedy.

Mark went through untold hardships and successfully boarded the rescue spacecraft of his teammates.

And stop there.

Mark has survived a full 549 solar days on Mars by himself!

"ox!"

The amount of knowledge of this person can be described as profound!

Shen Zong couldn't help but doubt that Chu Kuang had worked in the space agency, right?

The professional space machine information in the book cannot be found by searching on the Internet alone!

However, surrounded by countless knowledge, this novel does not seem boring at all. The protagonist's flexible use of knowledge is so admirable, and various tricks emerge in an endless stream, he forcibly lives himself as the "King of Mars"!

People can't help feeling:

If you learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, you will not be afraid to travel all over the universe!

The whole process of the novel is wonderful!

Have fun!

Have a laugh!

And tears!

After spending a whole morning reading the entire novel, Shen Zong was beyond shocked!

Galaxy Awards.

Shen Zongshu was convinced!
