I Have A Super USB Drive

two months later.

Namibia, Life Science City.

The sky was clear and the sky was clear. In the outskirts of Life Science City, the originally sparse and cold suburbs suddenly became crowded. Countless famous media and research teams from various countries came to the space base of Life Science City.

The media looked excited. They set up long guns and short cannons here. The cameras were set up in front of a tarmac the size of four or five football fields, eagerly waiting for something.

And those research teams waited early in the living room on the side. Some of these people came from the Central Continent District, some from the North American District, and some from the European District and Beihai District. Anyone who pulls out one will find These people turned out to be well-known masters in the field of biological research.

In addition to this group of people, there are hundreds of Namibian soldiers in the space base. Some of these people are standing in front of many reporters to maintain order, while others are lined up one by one, forming a group in front of the apron. circle to prevent the entry of irrelevant personnel.

At the front of the tarmac, a huge podium was built. At this time, several hosts were debugging the circuit on the podium, and the abnormal press conference was ready to start at any time.

The reason why this place is so grand is that today, strictly speaking, in half an hour, the Ares spacecraft returning from Mars will return to Earth with various samples from Mars.

Here, Blackwatch is about to hold a launch event for the successful completion of Project Ares.

At this time, countless people have been looking forward to it, waiting for the moment when the hero who set foot on Mars returns.

"Hi everyone, this is BBC Science and Technology News. I'm Bob the reporter. Now we are at the space base of Life Science City in Namibia. As you can see, there is already a sea of ​​people here today! Except us BBC There are dozens of media besides, today is a special day, that is the day when the manned spacecraft Ares returns to Earth!"

"As one of the most influential companies in the world, Blackwatch has created countless myths that people talk about, and the most familiar one is probably the aging reversal treatment project. The emergence of this technology has been greatly delayed. The phenomenon of aging in various countries has benefited mankind and the world..."

"And now, Blackwatch has completed a new feat, that is, the Ares project in cooperation with Four Continents. This is the first time that humans have set foot on Mars, and it is also the first time that life on Mars has been discovered. Since we finally realized that alien life is so close to us, even on our neighboring star, and now, the Ares spacecraft takes our neighbor,

Arrived on our earth, although they do not have their own civilization like us humans, but this still represents a new step for us humans..."

At the same time as the BBC reporter's moving narration, other world-renowned media also broadcast the whole process live, as if the whole world is focusing on this place, live broadcasting the scene of Ares returning to the earth, and live broadcasting the important step of human beings...

"The Ares is approaching the outer layers of the atmosphere."

Suddenly, a man's voice came from the radio, "Everyone, please stand outside the apron. After the Ares manned spacecraft arrives, everyone, please keep order and do not enter the apron. Repeat, do not enter the apron."

About five minutes later, the broadcast sounded again, "The Ares has entered the ionosphere and is currently 80 kilometers above the surface. It will land in about 20 minutes. Everyone, please maintain order."

Hearing this sentence, everyone was in a commotion, and many people couldn't wait to look into the sky, but they found nothing.

However, these did not affect the excitement of everyone. After all, human beings have never been in contact with alien civilizations since they were born. Now, human beings have not only discovered alien life for the first time, but also brought alien life back to the earth. This may seem normal, but it also represents a fact...

The interstellar era is coming...

"The Ares has flown into the stratosphere..."

Ten minutes later, the voice continued to announce the location of the Ares at this time, "The personnel responsible for maintaining order, please prepare, and the personnel responsible for building the positive pressure disinfection room, please prepare..."

At this moment, a person holding a telescope suddenly shouted, "Look over there!"

Many reporters looked up quickly, and those carrying cameras also raised their cameras to take pictures in the sky. Sure enough, above their heads, a small blue dot shone like a tiny blue dot in the sky. of stars.

However, it is daytime after all, how could there be stars appearing?

Obviously, that is the Ares that is landing.

Ten minutes, nine minutes, eight minutes...

As time passed by every minute and every second, the azure blue star became bigger and bigger, and it was clearly visible in the last five minutes. A small dot the size of a sesame seed was constantly falling, and its two sides were respectively There are two azure blue rays of light gradually glowing.

"The Ares has entered the troposphere and is about to land..."

Broadcast the last notification up.

Following his words, the black spot became bigger and bigger, and with a low rumbling sound, the huge spaceship had completely reached the sky above everyone, and many people even felt that the airflow around them began to change.

Three minutes, two minutes. One minute……

When the last minute arrived, the Ares was already floating above the tarmac. The huge and streamlined body no longer had the luster it had before, but was gray instead, as if it had been burned, even Some people with good eyesight can even see the slightest scratches on the spacecraft.

Those are the wear and tear phenomena when the spacecraft hits the cosmic dust during the flight in deep space.

Amidst the whispers among the crowd, the Ares was suspended in mid-air and slowly descended. By this time, everyone had clearly felt the heat wave coming, and many people were thirsty. It is hundreds of meters away, if it is in front of it, the heat flow from the spacecraft engine is estimated to be able to dry a person in an instant.

Under the eyes of everyone, the Ares stopped completely on the huge tarmac, and the engine began to completely shut down.

Seeing this scene, countless people scrambled to cheer, their voices were so loud that they even overwhelmed the running sound of the spacecraft engine.

However, not everyone is like this. At this time, outside the gate of the space base, hundreds of people of all kinds gathered. The soldiers blocked the gate and could not enter.

On the slogans in the hands of this group of people, some are the logo of Blackwatch Company, but with a big cross on it with red spray paint, and some are a paragraph, and it is obvious that the slogan in the hands of a "Three-Body" fan is writing : "Don't answer, don't answer, don't answer!"

Many people think that bringing back microorganisms from Mars will bring a huge disaster to human beings, while some believe that aliens also have human rights, and bringing them to Earth is a disrespect for the other party, and some people think that they should follow the law of the dark forest , directly use nuclear bombs to destroy all living things on Mars, otherwise, if the living things on Mars evolve into humans in the future, there will be a few more technological explosions, and then the dead will be human beings...

Just like Lu Xun said: "The joys and sorrows of human beings are not connected, I just think they are noisy..." In this Ares project, everyone has different ideas, and everyone has their own cognition.

And this group of people are people who oppose the Ares program to bring creatures back to the earth. They even established the Ares Project Opposition Alliance and flew to Namibia at their own expense. They came to the space base to gather people to demonstrate on this day. .

However, the opinions of this group of people are destined not to be well known by the public. With the influence of Blackwatch Company in the world today, all well-known media will not risk the world to report these things, only those who want to attract attention Small media occasionally report, but these sporadic objections are like stones thrown into the lake, at most they can only stir up little ripples, but they can't stir up any storms.

At this time, as the spacecraft gradually turned off, the surrounding air gradually returned to its previous temperature. At the same time, the rescue team that had already prepared on the right side of the tarmac drove two trucks to the side of the cabin door of the spacecraft. Amidst the busyness of hundreds of people, a huge negative pressure isolation room was built at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Finally, the passageway of the isolation room was completely connected to the hatch of the spaceship, so that everyone in the spaceship could come out.

At this time, the reporters who were hundreds of meters away couldn't wait to rush forward, but they were firmly blocked by a group of soldiers outside the tarmac, and they could only watch helplessly.

In this way, after waiting for another half an hour, finally, at the other end of the negative pressure isolation room, the first person who had been disinfected inside and put on an isolation suit walked towards the podium step by step under the guard of soldiers. come over.

Seeing this, countless reporters finally let out a shocking cheer.

The man in the isolation suit was a middle-aged Caucasian man. After he came to the podium, he waved to everyone. After countless warm applause, the man opened his mouth. His voice was transmitted to the microphone through the isolation suit. "Thanks to the Earth Federation, thanks to the Blackwatch Company..."

"I am Zhou Xiong, the captain of Ares, and I am also an employee of Blackwatch Company. What I can tell you is that we have overcome the earth, the deep space of the universe, and countless difficulties. We... came back from Mars Already!"

"Next, I will be quarantined for a period of three months, but before the quarantine, I can accept three questions, no matter what the questions are, I can answer them truthfully."

The man named Zhou Xiong showed a hint of embarrassment, "Of course, it must be related to Mars. I declare in advance that I have a wife and do not accept inquiries about marriage."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The crowd suddenly burst into chuckles, and then countless reporters raised their hands high, eager to ask questions.

"It's you, you come to ask the first question!"

Zhou Xiong pointed to a blond man in the first row.

"I'm from ABC Radio North America, what did you bring back from Mars this time?"

The other party asked excitedly, "I heard that there is life on Mars, right?"

"Uh, yes!"

Zhou Xiong nodded, "We brought back soil samples, rock samples, air samples, and water resources samples from Mars. Of course, there are also biological samples... Okay, next, that beautiful lady over there."

Then, he selected a reporter from the Central Continent District again.

"Hi, I'm Wang Bing, a reporter from the Zhongzhou District TV Station. May I ask if you will encounter danger on Mars?"

"Danger?"

Zhou Xiong smiled, "No, the word danger should not be used, because we are always dealing with death."

As soon as this sentence came out, many people started talking in low voices.

"The average temperature on Mars is about minus 90 degrees. The air there is thin and the oxygen content is less than 0.1%. Humans cannot survive without any tools. Every time we go out, it is a life and death The test, because no one knows which sandstorm on Mars will blow us away, or tear our protective clothing..."

Zhou Xiong smiled faintly, "But now we have successfully built a life cycle scientific research station on it. Having a scientific research station is equivalent to having a foundation, and the ability to survive will be greatly improved."

Many people nodded secretly. Indeed, this group of human pioneers is indeed dealing with death. Not to mention Mars, even this back and forth cross-planet journey, accidents may occur at any time, whether it is a space meteorite It is still a solar storm, and the chance of an accident is much higher than the chance of a car accident.

"Okay, now's not the time to talk about that, next one."

Zhou Xiong finally pointed to a black lady, but before the black lady could speak, a man on the side suddenly spoke first, "Is the alien creature you brought back dangerous? Will it lead to the invasion of species or even the extinction of human beings? "

"Absolutely not!"

Zhou Xiong's expression darkened, then he shook his head and said, "We have indeed found Martian microbes, but those microbes live in water, and there are no microbes in the air and soil of Mars."

"As for the invasion of species, it is even more impossible, because we will isolate them very well, such as level 4 biosafety laboratories, etc., let alone lead to the extinction of human beings. Alien creatures can't do this at all. Everyone completely You can rest assured!"

After saying this sentence, Zhou Xiong left without looking back under the protection of several bodyguards.

"Mr. Zhou Xiong!"

"Mr. Captain, please wait a moment..."

There was a sudden commotion among the crowd, and many people wanted to catch up, but were ruthlessly stopped by soldiers with live ammunition.

In the end, the group left disappointed.

On the Ares spacecraft, of the various samples from Mars, except for one taken from the four continents, the remaining one was secretly transported into the Minaret Experimental Base.

The exploration of extraterrestrial life has officially begun.
