For the next period of time, the Sunset Project Headquarters put all its energy on the rescue of the Sunset 6 ground spacecraft.

Pang Xuelin was also pulled over to participate in several seminars, but most of the rescue plans ultimately proved unfeasible.

According to the current level of technology, not to mention sending a ground spacecraft to rescue Sunset 6, but determining its location in the core of the earth is also a super challenge for the scientific community.

Even in a sense, it is basically impossible to pinpoint the location of Sunset 6 in the depths of the earth's core before a major breakthrough has been made in fundamental physics.

After all, Sunset 6 is located deep in the core of the earth, surrounded by 3.6 million standard atmospheres and a high temperature of 6,000 degrees Celsius.

Coupled with being surrounded by thick strata, traditional detection methods are basically useless.

According to the results of the discussion, the only technical route to determine the position of Sunset 6 is to use neutrinos to detect the position of Sunset 6.

But neutrinos only participate in very weak weak interaction and gravitational interaction, and have the strongest penetrating power, and can pass through matter as thick as the diameter of the earth. Only one neutrino in 10 billion neutrinos will react with matter.

Therefore, in this world, although humans have been able to use neutrinos to communicate, but to use neutrinos to detect matter, they must have a deeper understanding of neutrinos.

And that requires breakthroughs in fundamental science.

No one knows when such a breakthrough will be completed.

In the end, three months after Sunset 6 fell into the center of the earth, Shen Yuan coldly announced that he would abandon the rescue operation of Sunset 6, and instead focus on the next step of exploration and the Antarctic garden project.

Pang Xuelin didn't communicate too much with Shen Yuan about the rescue of Sunset No. 6.

On the one hand, he is just an ordinary doctoral student under Shen Yuan, he is soft-spoken and can't say much.

On the other hand, according to the current technical level, it is not realistic to rescue Sunset Six.

He has another very important job to do.

Under normal circumstances, he still has two years to graduate, so the graduation thesis can be postponed for two years, but he can't wait that long.

His future academic career is not about doing geophysical research. What he really wants to do is how to use the huge resources stirred by Shen Yuan to complete the construction of the earth cannon, and on this basis to find the rescue Sunset No. 6 way.

The best way is to gain Shen Yuan's trust as soon as possible, so that Pang Xuelin can mobilize the greatest resources in the shortest time.

Therefore, during this time, Pang Xuelin has been writing an engineering technical plan and feasibility report on how to transform the Antarctic courtyard project into an earth cannon.

He believes that compared with the controversial Antarctic Garden Project, this report will more easily impress Shen Yuan and countries around the world.

After all, compared to the small corner of the Earth's Antarctic, space carries the endless dreams of human beings.

It's just that in this era, although the price of space launches has dropped to tens of dollars per kilogram, the cost is still high for space industrialization. If the earth cannon can be manufactured on the basis of the Antarctic Garden Project, then human beings will basically have the ability to migrate to space on a large scale. Appeal.

This afternoon, Pang Xuelin came to the command and control center of the Sunset Project with nearly a hundred pages of papers he had written.

Shen Yuan stood in front of the big screen and was talking to a girl on the screen.

The girl was wearing a space suit with an extremely well-developed heat insulation system, and a pencil was floating silently in front of her. She looked extraordinarily petite and weak in front of the camera.

Pang Xuelin knew that this was silence.

In the past few months, he and Shen Jing have met several times when discussing rescue operations.

He even reminded Shen Yuan to pay attention to the mental state of the crew of Sunset No. 6.

But even so, it still did not prevent the tragedy from happening.

Inside Sunset 6, the navigator opened the hatch and chose to commit suicide because he couldn't bear the huge pressure. The captain died shortly after suffering severe burns when he closed the hatch in a critical moment.

At this time, the interior of the ground spaceship. Only the poor girl survived.

If Pang Xuelin didn't intervene, she would most likely stay in the small cabin of Sunset No. 6, less than fifteen cubic meters, for a lifetime until she died of old age.

"Is there anything you can do with me?"

Seeing Pang Xuelin coming in, Shen Yuan frowned.

He didn't like that Pang Xuelin interrupted the call between him and his daughter.

Pang Xuelin said: "Teacher, this is a paper I wrote on the Antarctic Garden Project. I would like you to correct me."

"Leave it alone, I'll see later."

"good."

Pang Xuelin raised his head, smiled at the girl on the screen, turned and left the hall.

Shen Yuan sighed slightly, and asked: "Xiao Jing, there should not be much communication energy left in Sunset No. 6."

Shen Jing replied: "The video call can last for about 30 days. The passive receiving system can last forever, but unfortunately the transmission rate is too low and can only receive some text messages. Don't worry, Dad, I will arrange my next call." In terms of work and life, the life cycle system in Sunset 6 is intact, and it can still operate for decades, maybe we will meet again in the future."

Shen Yuan nodded and said: "Is there any place you want to go? In two days, I will ask someone to take a pair of your eyes out. Where do you want to go, what do you want to see, just ask, we will try our best to meet your requirements. "

Shen Jing seemed to be a little entangled, thought for a while and said, "Dad, there are so many places I want to go, I don't know how to choose, I will tell you in a few days."

"Okay, then we won't waste communication energy, let's go here first today."

Soon, the call was cut off, and Shen Yuan sat down, leaning weakly on the recliner, with a lonely expression on his face.

Obviously, his daughter was trapped underground, and his heart was not as peaceful as it seemed on the surface.

Shen Yuan's eyes slid across the table unconsciously, and suddenly his eyes flashed, attracted by the title of the thesis on the table.

"Earth Cannon Project?"

Shen Yuan muttered to himself, becoming a little interested.

Soon, Shen Yuan picked up the paper written by Pang Xuelin and read it.

When you look at it, you don't know how time flies.

Unknowingly, the light outside dimmed.

Secretary Shen Yuan brought dinner to Shen Yuan, and then the dinner was completely cold, but Shen Yuan still didn't take a bite.

The secretary knew Shen Yuan's character, so he didn't dare to disturb Shen Yuan.

Shen Yuan's gaze was firmly focused on the thesis written by Pang Xuelin, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

After a long time, Shen Yuan closed the paper and muttered to himself: "Pang Xuelin, I never thought there would be such a talent among my students..."
