Super Island Tycoon-Chapter 735 - 734 Command

This time Jiang Cheng's view on this topic is the same as last time, which is that people today are just too idle and bored, so they discuss such trivial matters.

Last time, when people online discussed how high Jiang Cheng's IQ was, he commented on the participants in this way.

Anyway, he thinks modern people might be so bored they talk about such things all day long.

For Jiang Cheng, he always blocks out these pointless things.

So the question of what Jiang Cheng cannot achieve hasn't affected him at all.

He is currently busy arranging the construction work of the Space Station, with no time to deal with those matters.

The first batch of rockets has now carried some components to the Space Station's designated orbit.

For the first batch, Jiang Cheng launched ten rockets in one go, taking part of the materials and equipment to the intended orbit of the Space Station.

Of course, this first batch of ten rockets is not the total number of rockets Jiang Cheng intends to launch, just one-tenth of the total.

This means that the Space Station Jiang Cheng is constructing this time requires a hundred rockets to provide the necessary things.

From this, one can see how big this Space Station is, as it requires so many rockets to build.

The Mars Base only required thirty rockets from Jiang Cheng, yet the Space Station requires three times that amount.

Of course, the account cannot be calculated this way; it doesn't mean the Space Station is three times the size of the Mars Base.

The main construction materials for the Mars Base were mostly sourced locally on Mars, and what was transported were all equipment and machinery.

So, this Space Station isn't three times the size of the Mars Base, but it's certainly not small either.

Launching a hundred rockets for a single project—this number would have been the total number of launches for all of humanity in the past.

And now Jiang Cheng alone needs to launch so many rockets just to build a Space Station.

Thus, Jiang Cheng's previous decision to expand the Space Mission Center was very wise.

The scale of space missions will only get larger in the future, and without the ability to launch a large number of rockets, it's impossible to achieve what Jiang Cheng plans.

Jiang Cheng is now standing in the command hall, asking Xiao Peng about the progress of the project.

"Xiao Peng, how are those astronauts doing? Can they start working right away?"

Along with the rockets this time, apart from the things needed for the Space Station, twenty astronauts have also reached Earth's orbit.

Those components won't assemble themselves; it would be impossible without astronauts.

These twenty astronauts are all the astronauts under Jiang Cheng's command, representing his entire reserve.

The reason no additional people were sent to the Mars Base is because Jiang Cheng is about to commence the Space Station construction plan, hence the ten astronauts are rotating on Mars.

Now those astronauts are already in position within the space capsule, just waiting to start the construction work on the Space Station.

The astronauts are doing quite well; the space capsule they're in has been specially modified, and the living conditions are quite good," Xiao Peng said to Jiang Cheng with a half-joking tone.

Since there aren't any research tasks this time, Jiang Cheng used the kind of space capsule meant for sightseeing.

After all, the astronauts are going to assemble the Space Station this time, so it doesn't matter if they take this type of space capsule; the better environment even aids their work.

The construction work on the Space Station can begin immediately, and anyway, the second batch of components will soon arrive."

With the combined parts from the first two batches, certain sections can already start to be assembled.

Xiao Peng glanced at the documents in his hands before giving Jiang Cheng a confirmed answer.

Whether the construction can start also depends on whether materials are sufficient; if the necessary components for the Space Station are lacking, formal construction cannot begin.

Fortunately, the parts from the first two batches can already form several complete sections.

So now the astronauts can start taking action, gradually constructing the Space Station in the geosynchronous orbit.

"Then let's have the astronauts start moving. I can't wait to see the day the Space Station is completed," Jiang Cheng said with anticipation.

Xiao Peng, also looking quite expectant, agreed with Jiang Cheng, saying, "Then let's officially start; the astronauts are on standby and ready to work at any command."

When our Space Station is completed, a giant will appear in Earth's orbit. I really want to see that scene right now!

Peng is envisioning the future scenes, imagining Earth's orbit no longer empty by then.

By that time, there will be a giant Space Station standing in the empty universe, and that scene will probably be very magnificent.

Since it's decided to start the construction work, Jiang Cheng immediately took action.

All the astronauts began preparations immediately, following the assigned tasks, each starting with the assembly work arranged before.

Jiang Cheng's voice echoed in the command hall, simultaneously transmitted via signal to Earth's orbit.

Astronauts in geosynchronous orbit soon received Jiang Cheng's orders.

These astronauts, having heard the orders through the equipment in the space capsule, stopped what they were doing and began preparing intensely.

They cannot just go out, as the vacuum environment would instantly kill them.

So they need to do some preparatory work—at the very least, they must put on their space suits before going out.

Fortunately, the astronauts are using different suits than before; these lightweight space suits are quickly donned, preventing any chaos.

If they were still using those old bulky suits, it would take them at least half an hour to put on—with help from others.

Very soon, all astronauts were ready; now, twenty astronauts stood in the airlock, waiting for their captain to issue the order to begin action.

The commander for this operation is a familiar face, Xiong Jie, a robust man, is their Commander.

Xiong Jie was among the first astronauts selected by Jiang Cheng and participated in the Mars landing plan, being the first human to set foot on Mars.

Due to his excellent performance in the Mars landing plan, he was appointed the commander of all astronauts this time.

In fact, he hadn't been back from Mars for long before being dispatched to participate in this construction mission.

The other two astronauts from the Mars landing plan are also among the personnel for this operation.

It can be said that Xiong Jie and the other two are being exhausted by Jiang Cheng.

Having just returned from as far away as Mars, without much rest, they have to leave Earth again to execute missions on the geosynchronous orbit.
