561 Exploring Space

What the hell?!

Carlot, the terrifying place where the Dark Ghoul was born?

Everyone remembered the terrifying Dark Ghoul.

It had occupied the top spot on the sea monster rankings for a long time, and it was regarded as the greatest threat to mankind by a group of senior scientists in the Sea Monster Research Center.

However, this sea monster mysteriously disappeared one day. No one knew if it was alive or dead. It was as if it had vanished off the face of the earth.

Today, they finally learned that the terrifying creature was actually a highly-advanced creature from Carlot.

The planet was about 1,300 light-years away from Earth, and it was now within reach.

“It’s 1,300 light-years away. Perhaps we won’t be able to cross it in our lifetime, but with controllable nuclear fusion, there’s a glimmer of hope. I want to send a spaceship through the galaxy to explore this planet,” Wu Mo said with hope.

At this moment, everyone finally understood Wu Mo’s intentions.

No other scientific research expert would have such forethought.

However, a reporter still asked, “Mr. Wu, why can’t Carlot form an alliance with Earth? How are you so sure that it will invade and rule our planet?”

Wu Mo looked at him coldly, and his eyes seemingly said, “Are you an idiot?”

Wu Mo did not even want to answer his question. The others lost their cool and criticized the reporter as well, “What kind of question did you ask? Just sit down and listen, will you?”

“Really?! Which country sent this reporter? Did anyone check if he’s a qualified reporter?!”

“Ridiculous! Why would they embrace us with love instead of rule us?”

The reporter who was reprimanded blushed and fell silent.

“Next question!” Wu Mo said softly.

He obviously did not want to answer such a worthless question.

When two civilizations of different levels met, could they be expected to live in harmony and would the more advanced civilization lead the lower-level one to glory?

It was a fool’s dream!

Advanced civilizations would only dominate low-level civilizations and absorb their strength to meet their own developmental needs.

They would never selflessly help a low-level civilization improve because how would it benefit them?

Furthermore, it would only add to their list of threats. It was more harmful than not.

The reporters proceeded to ask all kinds of questions about the small spaceship.

For instance, how many people could this spaceship hold?

How were its internal facilities laid out?

Where was the spaceship heading to?

Wu Mo answered all their questions.

The spaceship could accommodate four people, and its interior facilities resembled those found in a modern luxury home. This would give its passengers a homely feel instead of loneliness in the vast starry sky.

He knew that some people might break down from the endless solitude upon entering space.

At present, the small spaceship did not have a fixed target.

In Wu Mo’s vision, the spaceship would be equipped with a device that could change the direction of its movement during a short period of time.

This meant that Wu Mo could use a top-notch aerospace chip to observe data changes in the surrounding space in real time and analyze the spaceship’s next route.

Wu Mo could not answer more in-depth questions that concerned sensitive information, so the press conference came to an end.

However, there was still a very important piece of news that Wu Mo had not disclosed at the press conference. Carlot’s Dark Ghoul had already boarded its spaceship and seemingly jumped into a four-dimensional space.

He knew that once this news was spread, it would cause a huge worldwide panic!

After all, the concept of four-dimensional space was more advanced than three-dimensional space. This could easily devastate the others.

On this day, the four astronauts who would board the small spacecraft were also confirmed.

The four astronauts did not have to go through a process of selection. They were plucked directly from the last manned satellite mission.

The training for astronauts was completely different from the training for mech pilots.

A mech pilot could participate in combat in just a few months.

To become an astronaut, one needed to have outstanding talents from a young age. Only after a long period of training and tempering could one have excellent physical and psychological qualities.

When the four astronauts learned that they would be manning a small spaceship past the boundaries of the galaxy, their excitement was beyond words.

They all expressed their determination to live up to everyone’s expectations and complete this mission.

They later met Wu Mo and asked him about the things to take note of during the voyage.

The four astronauts were full of respect for him. They knew that the young man before them was responsible for the spaceship’s birth and their record-breaking achievement in space exploration.

“Oh, my God, is there no limit to what Chief Engineer Wu really can do? He’s actually begun to pay attention to the world outside the galaxy?”

The four astronauts were impressed by Wu Mo’s endless explanation.

Previously, Wu Mo had made a major breakthrough in the field of biotechnology.

Now, he was setting his sights on controllable nuclear fusion and interstellar navigation. He strived to make a leap in the energy and aerospace fields.

One could imagine how much Wu Mo had gained from the system.

After they discussed the relevant matters, they confirmed the specific launch time. It would be carried out in seven days.

The launch base was located at a satellite launch station in the desert.

When the time came, the small spaceship would break through the atmosphere with the nuclear reactor’s propulsion and surpass the first cosmic velocity. After that, it would utilize the controllable nuclear fusion reactor for energy and fly in the Taal Nebula’s direction.

The launch ceremony of this highly anticipated small spaceship would be held in an isolated city in the desert.

This city called Sang Quan had witnessed the great launch of countless Chinese satellites, and now it was welcoming a spaceship that would transcend the universe.

When the fantastical sci-fi spaceship was unveiled, it caused a huge uproar!

People wondered whether structural performance had been sacrificed for its design.

Obviously, such worries were completely unnecessary.

With the explanation from Wu Mo’s research team, the people learned about the spaceship’s advanced physical structure and mechanical principles.

As for Wu Mo, his main concern was whether the spaceship could successfully convert the energy supply source to the controllable nuclear fusion reactor once it exceeded the cosmic velocity and entered space.

There was no doubt that the controllable nuclear fusion reactor itself was an extremely complex piece of technology. Using it in a spacecraft would inevitably present certain risks.

However, after many simulations, Wu Mo knew that the possibility of success was very high.

More importantly, the parts of the spaceship were directly matched from the system store. Technically, it was unparalleled.

A controllable nuclear fusion reactor would definitely work well with them.

Wu Mo was filled with anticipation as he waited for this moment to come.

Foreign reporters were not allowed to conduct interviews during the spaceship’s launch ceremony, but they could watch it on the live broadcast.

A global audience could also tune in to the live broadcast, and only Chinese reporters could report from several hundred meters away.

The most exciting moment had finally arrived!
