Chapter 21

Then Kent looked at Ashley and chin and said with a smile, "go to the food, too, to replenish your strength."

"Thank you." Jean whispered her thanks to Kent and left.

As for Ashley, she said with a smile, "thank you."

"Well." Kent just answered, and Ashley left.

Looking at Ashley leaving, Kent shakes her head and is not ready to expose her identity. After all, if only one person knows, the girl will be more safe.

------------------------------------------------

After resting on the roadside for more than ten minutes, they returned to the pickup truck. This time, Simon was the driver, and Kent was the co pilot.

When the pickup truck drove away, Kent, who was supposed to sleep, was sleepless because he was resting on the roadside. Instead, he looked at the scenery outside the window with nothing to do.

Simon doesn't seem to like to talk much in front of outsiders. He just concentrates on driving, and Laura, Ashley and Jean become friends, discussing the topic between girls.

But quill has been looking at the tablet, frowning, as if to delve into something.

Kent, who was bored in every way, took a look at quell, tried to find a topic, and said, "hey? Doctor, what are you looking at? He looks so serious. "

"Well?" When quill heard Kent talking, he pointed his computer screen at Kent and said, "I downloaded the news and relevant information about the epidemic from the Internet before I cut off the Internet."

Kent didn't expect that he just casually said that the honest Professor really showed him the information. He couldn't understand the information, so he said, "so... What's the matter?"

"Always feel the epidemic, it seems..." quill face bitter color, shook his head, his words are also half believing, said: "seems to be some strange."

"Oh?" As soon as Kent heard this sentence, he immediately became interested, and his little sleepiness was swept away.

Kent straightened up, looked over at quill and said, "doctor, what did you find?"

"Remember when I told you that prehistoric remains were found in the western part of the country, and I took the students with me to investigate?" Quail said.

"Well, I remember." Ken is the first one.

"And this time, the outbreak is in the city of Western Donia." Quill frowned.

Kent was confused and said, "well, doctor, where is this Sidonia? And what is that relic? "

"Oh, it's my fault. Did you know that in 1945 the United States launched a Mars probe called pirate one?" Quell asked.

Kent frowned slightly. He did know about the pirate detector, but it was launched in 1975. There was something wrong with the timing.

So Kent nodded again and said, "well, it's kind of... Impressive."

"Well." Quill waved his hand and said, "it doesn't matter whether you know it or not."

Kent make complaints about the fish eye condition, and he says: "so..."

"Ha ha." Quill said with a smile, "this is the picture taken by viking-1. That's the famous face picture of Mars."

"Mars face?" Exclaimed Kent.

This Martian face is one of the most famous scenes on Mars. Even scientists in Kent's original world can't explain it. Later, they can only claim that it is a natural phenomenon.

"Yes "In 1975, humans landed on Mars for the first time, and the first landing site was the face of Mars in the western region," quell continued.

However, the fact is that the weathering of the canyon is too serious, coupled with the problem of shooting, which makes this area look like a human face. "

"Well..." Kent is still a little disappointed. In fact, he has always believed that Mars faces are man-made, but it seems that this view is shattered.

Quell didn't care about Kent's loss, and continued: "in the 1980s, human beings broke through nuclear fusion technology, and relying on nuclear fusion, human beings could navigate freely in the solar system, and invented planetary modification devices."

"Fusion?"

Looking at Kent's muddled face, quill patiently explained, "you should know about the atomic bomb."

"Yes, yes." Kent nodded quickly. If he didn't know about the atomic bomb, he really didn't know.

"This nuclear bomb is derived from nuclear fission technology. Nuclear fission is the splitting of a heavier nucleus into two or more atoms of smaller mass.This kind of chain reaction can produce huge energy, like an atomic bomb, which can annihilate a city.

Of course, nuclear fission can not only destroy, but also create, such as nuclear power plants.

However, even nuclear fission is not enough to let human easily break through the shackles of gravity, so nuclear fusion is on the stage.

Nuclear fusion can be said to be the opposite reaction mode of nuclear fission, in which the lighter atoms, under ultra-high temperature and high pressure, make the two nuclei together, which produces much more energy than nuclear fission.

The most important thing is that the raw materials for nuclear fusion can be extracted from seawater. Theoretically, the raw materials are endless, so human beings must break through this technical barrier.

To put it simply, the way the sun burns is nuclear fusion.

If there are two interstellar immigration ships, one is a conventional nuclear fission engine, and the other is a nuclear fusion engine.

So Mr. Kent, which one do you think will be faster? "

"Fusion, of course." Kent doesn't think about cableways.

Nuclear fusion is the way the sun burns. Think about how much energy the sun provides. Kent doesn't even have to think about it.

"Well." Quill nodded with satisfaction and went on to talk about Mars face

"When human beings master nuclear fusion technology, it is not a problem to transform planets and interstellar migration. In the wave of interstellar migration in the 2000s, Venus and Mars are the first choice for human beings.

When we really lived on Mars, we found that the pyramids, statues and faces were all formed naturally.

Since then, humans have believed that only the earth in the solar system has ever lived, or intelligent life. "

"Mm-hmm, and then?"

At this time, Kent is no longer turning his head to look at the back seat, but turning to climb in the co pilot's seat, and looking at quell, its state is like a thirsty student.

But who doesn't like stories?

Quell didn't want to take Kent's fancy either. He continued: "then, the region of western California, where Mars faces were originally discovered, has gradually developed into a city with a population of one million. It is one of the top ten cities in the northern hemisphere of Mars.

But

But not long ago, an artificial relic was excavated in a mining area in Sidonia.

Over the next few months, researchers from all over the world rushed here, and my students and I were the latest
