Chapter 773: Escape From the Lava Flow

William certainly doesn't want to see Olympus volcano erupt.

This is a volcano with a diameter larger than the entire area of ​​England. If it really erupts, it will even directly change the climate conditions of Mars.

It is foreseeable that the glaciers near Olympus volcano are likely to disappear due to the volcanic eruption.

And these gaseous water vapors will evaporate directly into the sky, and then turn into ice crystals and spread all over Mars.

Only God knows whether this situation is good or bad.

Thinking of this, William made a gesture to Sunday to detonate in fifteen seconds, and then grabbed the live broadcast ball and said with a smile,

"Okay, today's live broadcast is about to end. I have to go back to the spacecraft to get some food, then wash up and have a good sleep."

As he was walking towards the spacecraft ladder, a low "boom" sound suddenly came.

Then the crater of Olympus volcano began to shake and shake, and the surrounding gravel also jumped up and down.

"What is this?"

William, who pretended to be confused and looked around, suddenly thought of something, screamed, grabbed the live broadcast ball, jumped up the ladder in two steps, and rushed into the spaceship.

He slapped the button to close the cabin of the spaceship, and cursed angrily, how could he be so unlucky, and he encountered something that had not happened for tens of thousands or even millions of years.

Many people in the Blue Star had already reacted at this moment, wondering if it was really as William said, that the volcanic eruption on Mars that had not happened for hundreds of years had really happened to him.

Rushing into the control room of the spaceship, William was starting the spaceship. From the glass window in front of the driver's seat, he saw the Olympus volcano, a crater with a diameter of several kilometers,

A series of magma cracks flashing with dark red light began to appear, and then thick smoke began to come out, and streams of boiling magma began to bubble and erupt like boiling water.

"Automatic control system turned on, start the emergency escape program",

"Bang",

A dark red molten lava suddenly spurted out from a few meters away from the spacecraft, and William cursed anxiously, "Damn it, start the spacecraft quickly, fly up, fly up".

"SIR, the external energy converter has not been retracted. If it is started at this moment, the spacecraft has a 21% chance of damaging the energy system. It is recommended to cut off the external energy interface".

"Cut it off, cut it off immediately, and then fly up immediately".

"Understood, SIR, intelligent control started, external energy is cut off".

"Bang",

Another sound of molten lava erupting, this time a lot of molten lava directly covered the glass windows and the surface of the nose of the spacecraft.

"FK", William began to manually control the spacecraft with an angry face, cursing, "Damn intelligent system, the calculation speed for handling accidents is so slow, when I return to Blue Star, I will definitely format and rewrite you".

"Chi, chi, chi", a sound of engine starting, William controlled the spacecraft to take off vertically, just about to fly away at full speed.

Unexpectedly, the spaceship, which had taken off for more than 20 meters, was directly hit by a stream of molten lava on the belly of the fuselage.

The spaceship lost its balance and shook in the air.

Fortunately, because it was acting before, Sunday was so slow to react. Now that the spaceship was in real danger, it immediately took over the control system of the spaceship,

stabilized the spaceship, and then plunged into another stream of molten lava and flew to the edge of the nearest crater.

Just when William thought it was safe, Sunday suddenly reported, "Warning, warning, the engine jet nozzle has found molten lava splashing in, and it is expected to be blocked in fifteen seconds. Find a suitable landing site, find a suitable landing site for repair."

"No",

The Blue Star audience, who was as nervous as William, was at a loss when they suddenly heard William shouting, "Increase energy output, full power energy output, hurry up, don't report to me that it will damage the engine, and do it immediately."

"Understood".

Under full load, the spacecraft, which was flying at high speed, suddenly rushed into the sky outside the volcano like a wild horse that had broken free from its rope.

Because of its high speed, it broke through several lava flows that were spraying into the air along the way.

When the spacecraft finally rushed out of the crater, William had the mind to ask Sunday, "With the current situation of the spacecraft, is it suitable for high-speed rotation?"

After a few seconds, Sunday replied, "78% probability is no problem."

"Then increase the energy output. I don't believe that the temperature of more than 3,000 degrees will not melt the magma. If it rotates in place again, the magma should be thrown out directly.

Start spinning."

After saying that, William grabbed the armrest of the driver's seat with both hands. After a dizzy spin, Sunday controlled the spacecraft and rotated more than a dozen circles at high speed before stabilizing.

Then I heard Sunday report, "SIR, the lava flow in the spacecraft engine jet has been thrown out, but it is estimated that 67% of the outer shell of the body is covered by cooled lava.

We must now find a suitable place to land and inspect the damage to the body to avoid cracks in the surface material of the body due to thermal expansion and contraction, which will affect future space travel."

"Damn it",

Hearing this, even if William himself knew that this was a show, nearly two-thirds of the surface of the spacecraft was covered by magma.

If he dared to drive such a spacecraft into space, the heat-insulating and cold-proof metal layer on the surface of the spacecraft would definitely be torn into slight cracks by the ice-cracked lava.

No mistake, one post, one content, one 6, one book, one bar!

And then affect the other layers of metal materials under the surface material.

In short, William cannot drive this spaceship into space unless it is absolutely necessary.

And he will not fall into the situation where he needs to take risks.

After the shell of the first support spaceship was destroyed, the second spaceship shell that England was responsible for rushing to build has been transported to the London Space Center for installation of other parts.

The second spaceship in the Sahara Desert is already under construction.

In addition to the spaceship that was previously transmitted from the X17 planet, there will be three spaceships in the desert base in a few days, and one of them uses high-end energy crystals.

To reach Mars, you only need a space jump, and you can appear in front of you in less than five minutes.

The previous volcanic eruption only looked dangerous. The magma could not destroy the spaceship that could withstand 4,000 degrees high temperature and prevent small meteorite impact.

But acting has to be more realistic, and at the same time, it is also to avoid the real eruption of Mount Olympus.

According to calculations, the spacecraft was driven directly to a natural rock body in the largest canyon on Mars, the Mariner Canyon, on Sunday to avoid being covered by a large amount of volcanic ash, which would affect the future start of the engine.

Fortunately, according to the images sent back from the base near the volcano, although the volcano's peak erupted hundreds of meters of magma, it only erupted for more than an hour, and the pressure caused by the red mercury nucleus was completely released.

The magma layer on the peak actually dropped dozens of meters after cooling, forming a huge basin with a width of several kilometers and a depth of more than 200 meters.
