Let you be a prop, what the hell is this space elevator?

Chapter 510 Seeing the true face of the statue!

Jiang Chen was about to answer when he heard MOSS's voice.

[Administrator, the weather observation station has detected an approaching sandstorm. Should we return to the Zhurong? 】

Dust storm?
Sandstorms on Mars are essentially different from those on Blue Star. The air on Mars is more than 100 times thinner than on Blue Star.

Sandstorms actually have little impact on people. There will not be a scene where a sandstorm comes and knocks people to the ground.

In the movie "The Martian", although the sandstorm looks huge, the main reason is that some artistic realization techniques are added to it, which cannot be taken seriously.

However, Martian dust particles are still very harmful to the detection instruments they carry. Not only will they block the sunlight, cover the solar panels on the detection vehicle, causing the instruments to stop working, but small dust particles will also get into the machine!
These dust particles also contain micro-static electricity, which can cause damage to the machine!

In this way, not only the instruments will have problems, but also robots like MOSS and Ethan.

There was no other way, so Jiang Chen could only inform the people in the scientific research team and the crew to return to the Zhurong.

The sandstorm lasted for eighteen hours before stopping. During this period, Guo Fan took pictures of his life on Mars in order not to waste time.

"Director Guo, stop filming, the sandstorm seems to have stopped." Wu Gan said looking out the window.

As soon as the people on the Zhurong saw that the sandstorm outside had stopped, they prepared to go down.

They were worried that if there was another sandstorm, they would all be trapped on the Zhurong.

Summer is a period of frequent sandstorms on Mars. In order to seize the time to do research, Longguo cannot postpone it.

After getting off the Zhurong, everyone found that the original landscape had changed.

A lot of the raised sand and gravel on the ground had been blown away, and now it seemed as if the ground had been deliberately smoothed.

After a simple exchange, Jiang Chen and Guo Fan led the team to set off again. This time, Jiang Chen led the researchers to speed up and rushed to the vicinity of the statue.

Half an hour later, they quickly arrived at the coordinates of the statue.

"There is nothing here!"

"Is it buried by a sandstorm? Let's look for it!"

There was no other way, so Jiang Chen and others could only bring the surface detection radar and start scanning for the disappeared statue.

Wearing spacesuits, they walked carefully on the hard red rocks. The sandstorm here has gradually weakened, but the wind is still strong.

Jiang Chen held a detection radar and carefully scanned the surrounding underground.

The radar emits a weak signal that penetrates meters underground and reflects back, displaying it on the screen of his handheld device.The data image on this screen appears to be a dark shadow underground, but it's not clear enough.

"Continue scanning here." Jiang Chen ordered, his mood full of nervousness and excitement.

The goal of this mission is to find the Martian statue, and now it looks like they're not far away.

"right here!"

A scientific researcher pointed at a slightly raised place and shouted.

Everyone hurriedly picked up the tool, the brush, and carefully swept away the layers of sand and soil on it. After a while, a head was indeed exposed inside.

It wasn't until everyone cleaned the statue's face that they realized something was wrong.

This statue doesn't look like a human being!If a person with one pair of eyes and one pair of eyebrows can be called a human being, then the criterion is too low.

On the statue in front of me, apart from having similar facial features to humans, it is difficult to think that this stone statue is a human being.

With protruding eyes, thick lips, and slender face, Jiang Chen could not imagine anyone looking like this.

"Could it be an alien?"

"It doesn't look like they are from Blue Star!"

"It appears here for no reason. It must not have been done by one of our own, so it's best if we take it back and study it."

Before Jiang Chen could speak, a group of scientific researchers were already discussing. For them, nothing could be more bizarre than discovering a statue on the inaccessible Mars.

At this time, through their body cameras, people who saw the statue at the Jiutian Space Center showed a bit of panic on their faces.

They didn't know whether their discovery of this statue was a good thing or a bad thing.

A mysterious statue appears on Mars. If this news is announced, it will definitely cause a sensation!

on Mars.

Jiang Chen didn't speak. In his opinion, they were gathered here without even monitoring equipment, so they might as well transport the statue back to Blue Star.

The statue was almost as tall as a person, with only the upper body, and it was unclear whether the lower body was a base or not at all. Jiang Chen asked Ethan No. [-] to move the statue and return to the Zhurong with them.

In order to avoid radioactive materials on the statue, Jiang Chen and others took some samples from the statue, and only after testing it with a high-energy particle detector did they feel safe to let the statue enter the Zhurong.

After Guo Fan and others came back from taking the scene, they discovered that Jiang Chen and others looked serious.

"Academician Jiang, did you discover something? Why don't all of them look good?" Mai Mai looked at Jiang Chen worriedly.

Jiang Chen was originally hypothesizing the origin of the statue with others, and he was still immersed in the matter of the statue. Now when he suddenly heard Mai Mai's words, he was shocked to realize that his face betrayed him.

"It's okay, we were just discussing something. Have you finished shooting the scenes?"

"That's almost it. The main reason is that we can't walk anymore. Boss, when will you get us a car?" Jin Xing beat his sore legs and couldn't help but say.

"It should happen next time."

After Jiang Chen answered, he looked at Guo Fan: "Director Guo, now we have something to do and we need to go back first. Let's see if the crew will come back with us. If you don't want to go back, there is an observation site 200 kilometers away from here. Stop, there is a rest room over there, I can take you there."

Jiang Chen wants to leave first?
Guo Fan and Wu Gan glanced at each other silently, and then said: "We'd better go back with Academician Jiang. Anyway, part of the filming work has been completed."

On the desolate Mars, their crew is the only one staying here?
Who is not afraid of this!Even a tough guy like Wu Gan thought it was best to follow Jiang Chen back first.

Jiang Chen saw that everyone wanted to go back, so of course he had no objection. The matter of the statue made him eager to return to Blue Star.

After counting the number of people, the Zhurong started up again and took them back to Blue Star.

As soon as they arrived on the moon, Jiang Chen and other researchers transferred the statue to Baidi, and they personally sent it back to the capital.

Guo Fan and his team took a Baidi alone back to the base.

After Jiang Chen and the others arrived in the capital, there were already people waiting to pick them up...
