171: The travel life of the interstellar tourist group
After wanderer one flew through the atmosphere, the flight was very stable. The members of the passenger cabin were very clear about what they should and shouldn't do after two days of training, and since this was a live broadcast, they were a little reserved. Most people were reading, while some watched the scenery outside through the big screen.
Everyone knew this was a long flight and just needed to wait patiently.
The seats in the passenger cabin were very spacious. Each seat could open up into a comfortable single bed, and curtains could be drawn, creating one's own small world.
Among the twenty people in this travel group, there were four ladies. Their seats were in the last two rows, separated from the men's seats in front by a slightly thicker curtain, which served as a simple partition.
The shower rooms were not separated by gender, but by time slots. The ladies' time slot was between 8 and 9 PM.
Since the passenger cabin also eliminated weightlessness, everyone felt it was no different from flying in an airplane.
After six hours of flight, the sound from the cockpit reached the passenger cabin.
"Dear passengers and friends, we have discovered a small planet named Little Blue Star. After communicating with the Ground Command Center, it has been confirmed that the atmosphere of Little Blue Star contains 65% nitrogen, 18% oxygen, and 17% unknown non-toxic gases. It is initially believed that this planet is suitable for landing. If you are interested, please press the button under your seat. If 90% agree, we will land on Little Blue Star and stay for three hours."
Of course, all the group members agreed. They all pressed the button under their seats.
"Okay, this landing has received 100% support. In ten minutes, we will land on Little Blue Star. Please put on your Space suits and prepare to land on Little Blue Star."
After Liu Xiaolin finished speaking, he followed Hong Tongtong to the passenger cabin. The two of them inspected the Space suits worn by the passengers one by one. Only after confirming everything was correct did they inform the Astronauts in the cockpit that they could begin the descent.
wanderer one remained very stable. The Astronauts used the external cameras to find a large flat open area and began a slow descent.
After landing, Liu Xiaolin opened the passenger cabin, and the group members filed out.
Little Blue Star is a near-normal temperature planet. The temperature here is minus sixty degrees Celsius, and there is weightlessness.
It was daytime on Little Blue Star, so visibility was clear. The only difference from Earth was that one had to bounce or hop to walk, and a slight lack of attention would send you flying into the air.
Therefore, whether they were Astronauts or travel group members, they all had a safety rope attached to their waists connected to wanderer one. Although worrying about falling into Space was a joke, this was done to give everyone a sufficient sense of security.
There were no signs of life on Little Blue Star, but there were majestic mountains. These mountains stood tall, as if they had endured millions of years of weathering without bowing their heads. Grooves on the ground in the distance indicated that there might have once been rivers and life here.
After the group members looked around, they all suggested going to see the mountains on the opposite side.
Liu Xiaolin informed an Astronaut to drive the Space vehicle down from the Space shuttle.
"Everyone, please unhook your safety ropes and get into the Space vehicle together. We'll drive the Space vehicle up the mountain to take a look," Hong Tongtong called out to everyone.
The group members were very happy that the Space shuttle had brought a Space vehicle, as this would save a lot of time and they wouldn't have to hop and bounce such a long distance to climb the mountain.
After everyone got into the vehicle, Liu Xiaolin drove the Space vehicle and set off. They circled the foot of the mountain and found a sloping road that led up the mountain, driving straight up. Although the mountain was high, the slope was not steep, so driving up was not dangerous.
The group members were very happy to be able to tour Little Blue Star in the Space vehicle. Everyone took out their phones and frequently took photos and videos.
Meanwhile, the wanderer no. 1 livestream was also very lively at this moment.
"I'm so envious of them, I'm tired of even saying the word 'envious'."
"Yeah, being able to ride a Space vehicle up a mountain on Little Blue Star, what kind of divine travel group is this?"
"I must work hard, I must save five million, and I must join a Xingji Travel Group!"
"It's not easy to save five million by laying bricks, wake up."
"Yeah, I woke up a long time ago. It's more realistic to watch them travel in the livestream."
"Speaking of which, watching their journey in the livestream is actually quite good. You can travel with the Xingji Travel Group without spending a single cent, which is very cost-effective."
They watched Liu Xiaolin driving the Space vehicle and wandering on Little Blue Star, filled with both awe and envy.
And Liu Xiaolin was indeed full of a sense of accomplishment at this moment. Such a great initiative was completed under his leadership, so of course, he was very proud.
"Please note, we have been here for three hours now and are about to return to wanderer one," Liu Xiaolin shouted to the group members who were getting off the vehicle to take photos and videos.
After having fun for a while, everyone felt a bit hungry, so they followed the Space vehicle back to wanderer one.
After entering, wanderer one continued its journey, and the group members began to eat and rest.
Everyone rested on time in the evening to ensure they had sufficient energy for the unknown travel itinerary on the second day.
wanderer one stopped and started along the way. After staying on two small planets, it finally arrived at the Moon on the third day.
The Moon is the planet everyone is most familiar with. They had seen it in various documentaries and pictures, and even seen it with their naked eyes every day, but the moment they stepped onto the Moon, everyone was still very excited.
Here, you couldn't see Chang'e holding a white rabbit, you couldn't see Wu Gang chopping the osmanthus tree, and you couldn't see the bleak and lonely Guanghan Palace. But here were the dreams accumulated by the Dragon Country people over thousands of years of culture, the romance of dancing with one's shadow in the moonlight, and the sentiment of sleeves swaying in the wind while dancing.
People's feelings towards the Moon are different from those towards nameless small planets, and different from those towards large planets that cannot be seen or touched. The Moon is the Dragon Country people's repository for homesickness, and their praise for the feeling of brightness and purity.
As everyone hopped and bounced their way across the Moon, they were all very excited. Everyone was shouting loudly: "Moon, I've arrived! I've come to see you!"
The wanderer no. 1 livestream was also filled with excitement.
"Can someone help me bring back a handful of soil?"
"That's called lunar soil, not just soil."
"Better not bring any back. Everyone has a responsibility to protect the Moon. If everyone who lands on the Moon takes lunar soil, will the Moon eventually be gone?"
"Haha, the netizens in our livestream really have wild imaginations. How could the Moon be gone?"
"I really want to go have some fun on the Moon too and shout a few times!"
