Chapter 1409: Bad news

Latest website: Jinling Space Launch Center.
The bad news that suddenly came from the front line made the entire ground command center mess.
earthquake!
It was an earthquake!
In the aerial aerial footage, the raging wind and sand rushed into the sky, and a circle of shock waves rolled out. Sweeped by the violent air, the surrounding dunes were razed to the ground, the crater was filled, leaving only a deep scar, printed on the surface of Mars. Looking from a distance, the entire mountain range is a mess, and it has fallen into ruins in the dust covering the sky ...
Fortunately, there is no sea or lava that can erupt on Mars. The Mars scientific research station just a few kilometers away was just bumped for a while by the shaking of the mountain, except that it was knocked over some cabinets and pot plants And it doesn't matter.
However, it is worrying that the fall of Hell's Gate has triggered a series of chain reactions including regional sandstorms.
At this moment, the center of the epicenter was dozens of kilometers in radius, and the place where you entered was covered with dust.
Looking down from the satellite, it is impossible to see what is happening on the ground, and no signal is received from there.
The voice of the report fluctuated in the command room of the ground command center.
Everyone's heart mentioned their throats, and they prayed for their fellow citizens on Mars in their hearts.
"Earthquakes were found at 15 ° south latitude and 128.1 ° west longitude! According to the observation results of the Mars Scientific Research Station, it is preliminarily judged that the magnitude is above 9.5!"
"The whole Hell's Gate Mountains collapsed! The entire area is now covered by sandstorms!"
"Dust storms are expected to last about a week ..."
"What's new! Two personnel lost contact during the operation!"
"... Here, one of them ... is Academician Lu."
When he heard this bad news, Director Li's blood pressure rose instantly, his eyes were covered with blood.
He stepped forward and grabbed the staff sitting in front of the console. The sixty-year-old man seemed to be crazy, clutching his collar, and said Xiazi flying across.
"What's going on! Academician Lu is missing? What the is going on!"
The collared researcher trembled, let alone speaking, the whole person was afraid to breathe one.
Not afraid of being beaten by this old man.
It was purely afraid that after being honest with him, the heart of the old man could not bear the bad news.
At present, Academician Lu is uncertain about the life and death of the Communist Party of China. It is a painful loss to the Republic. If he is walking with an old leader who has come all the way from the Pangudui era, the loss is too great.
Looking at the excited Director Li, Director Chang Hezhi standing next to him quickly grabbed him.
"Lao Li, calm down, don't be so impulsive! It's unclear what's happening on Mars now, what if it's a false positive?"
"Calm! Tell me how to calm down!" Throwing the staff aside, Director Li looked at the standing director who was holding him, his excited beard was shaking, "There is Mars! Not on Earth!"
If it was on Earth, let alone an earthquake, there would be a world war, and they would take him home at all costs.
However, on Mars, even if they want to do so, they are willing to do so at all costs, and there is no such condition to do it ...
As soon as the anxious mood rose to the top, the aging cardiovascular system could no longer be carried. Director Li's eyes glared, and his breathing suddenly became short.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Director Chang quickly supported him, and the staff next to him rushed over.
"Lao Li! What's wrong with you, Li!"
"Director Li fainted!"
"Quick! Call an ambulance!"
"Medic! Someone has fallen here!"
The aerospace launch center that was in a mess in the first place, because Director Li suddenly fainted in the command room, and now it is even more chaotic.
Looking at Director Li who was carried on a stretcher, everyone felt a haze in their hearts.
This is definitely the darkest moment in the history of Chinese aerospace.
No other day can be as bad as today ...
...
"Okay, I know."
Jinling Advanced Institute.
Yang Xu, deputy dean sitting in the office, put down the phone with a heavy face. Standing next to him, Qian Zhongming, director of the Institute of Computing Materials, immediately asked.
"What the is going on now? Is there any news from the space launch center?"
Just twenty minutes ago, the Astronomical Research Institute of the Jinling Institute of Advanced Research observed a regional sandstorm on Mars through an astronomical observation satellite deployed in a synchronized orbit.
Because there was no warning, the experts of the institute initially judged that it was caused by the earthquake based on the available information.
And the magnitude of the earthquake is probably not small.
Considering that Academician Lu was performing the task over there, Yang Xu immediately called the phone to the Jinling Space Launch Center. I did not expect the space launch center that has always been close to them, but this time it was silent.
Although no useful information was asked, he intuitively told Yang Xu that what he feared most probably happened.
"... All launches were suspended, probably because it had something to do with the earthquake on Mars." Silent for a while, Yang Xu continued, "Although the people there were unwilling to disclose more inside information, according to the manned ascent The schedule announced before the office ... the expedition was probably fierce. "
A little surprise appeared in the pupil, and Qian Zhongming's expression gradually became dignified, and continued.
"How can this be? Is it the extraterrestrial civilization ..."
"It's not clear, it's not good," Yang Xu shook his head. "I'm afraid there is something hidden behind the ascension plan. We don't have any news at this time. It's better not to guess. Let alone ..."
Speaking of this, the tight expression on Yang Xu's face suddenly loosened slightly, and smiled in a relaxed atmosphere.
"Not to mention the words of Academician Lu."
"I believe that with his skill, even if he encounters great trouble, the problem will not be very big."
There is Mars.
If that's the case ...
Qian Zhongming smiled bitterly in his heart.
Although he knew that Vice President Yang was comforting himself, he didn't feel much comforted in his heart. After sighing softly, he reconciled the expression on his face but asked seriously.
"What shall we do now?"
After thinking about it, Yang Xu said.
"Let's block the news for the time being so that experts from the Astronomical Institute don't talk around. No matter what the situation is now, we will take the news from the manned landing office as the standard."
Qian Zhongming said embarrassed.
"I'm afraid it won't be blocked for too long, it's not just us ... I'm afraid the whole world is staring at Mars. I'm afraid that by the end of tomorrow, someone will feel wrong."
Academician Lu is the spiritual pillar of Jinling Advanced Institute.
At least 80% of researchers have gathered under this ivory tower because of his aura. If he is in an accident, these people may not leave, but the blow to morale is undoubtedly quite heavy.
Especially the world leader in the Institute of Computing Materials.
The reason why he was able to punch MIT and kick Stanford basically relied on Lu Zhou, the originator of the mountain. If Academician Lu's aura is lost, although they will not be allowed to fall from the altar, but this world's first throne still wants to be as stable as before, it is obviously difficult to achieve.
"As long as it can be blocked," looking at the wall clock, Yang Xu said after a moment of silence, "the situation on Mars is still uncertain."
"At least, we can't mess around ourselves first."
Almost at the same time.
Starry Sky Technology Headquarters ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Chen Yushan, who was sitting at his desk handling the work at hand, suddenly frowned and pressed his hand on the left chest.
"strange……"
The inexplicable throbbing made her mouth murmur softly.
"Is it too busy lately?"
"By the end of the year ... I should also consider training a successor."
With a slight sigh, Chen Yushan raised her right hand and rubbed it on the eyebrow. Then she picked up the ball-point pen on the table and regained her energy.
Obviously she slept soundly last night, but I don't know why, but a chest-like sting came from her chest.
just like……
Somewhere in her heart, the same piece was taken away ...
