"Dad, the snow on the spaceship doesn't look good at all, and it's not cold enough." The girl was fluttering wantonly on the snow, and her parents were standing not far away.
Chen Mengchuan raised his head slightly, looking at the gravity equipment for artificial snowfall on the top of a height of more than 30 meters, with a lot of tiredness in his eyes.
Unknowingly, one Earth year has passed. Under the advice of the spacecraft's decision-makers, many areas, both large and small, were selected to simulate a snowfall.
Chen Mengchuan Deep down in his heart, he originally disagreed.
But Zhao Wanyu convinced him.
A snowfall, representing the alternation of spring, summer, autumn and winter, actually brought such hot vitality to the entire human race on the spacecraft.
It was as if everyone was alive again. This kind of vitality was something he didn't expect at all, and he didn't expect that he would be somewhat touched by such an ordinary artificial snowfall.
The hope of human civilization was rekindled in this ordinary artificial snowfall.
Seeing everyone jumping for joy, Chen Mengchuan couldn't calm down for a long time.
My daughter Chen Zhihui is running in the snow, grabbing snowflakes, kneading them into balls, and playing with other children. This simple scene is so precious.
Zhao Wanyu, who was standing aside, looked at her husband with twinkling eyes and obviously a lot of emotional fluctuations. He did not say anything, but quietly held his son who could not walk yet, leaned against her husband, and stayed with him.
She knows her husband's pressure better than anyone else.
Now the spacecraft is more than 700 light years away from Solar System. This far distance cuts off space and time. The scientific research team on the spacecraft has not stopped working this year.
All human expectations are attached to their expressions, and their pressure comes from the pressure of the entire human civilization. In this huge metal cage, they don't even have the right to slack off. The most relaxing thing for everyone every day is to be able to see their family. But there are also many living relatives who are among the first and second batch of evacuees.
"I miss my dad and mom." Zhao Wanyu said softly.
Zhao Wanyu's parents were among the second batch of evacuees. They were on another spaceship, flying in a direction similar to the direction of their current spacecraft. However, after a year of space jumps and before contacting each other, no one knew where the other spaceships were now.
Her words made Chen Mengchuan's eyes a little more complicated.
The escape of human civilization can be said to be full of secret exploration and detection in Solar System. As long as any space particle fluctuations come from outside Solar System, the particle optical communication early warning and defense system will instantly detect it and send confirmation information to the spacecraft where Chen Mengchuan is currently located through hundreds of different encrypted self-destruct procedures.
Chen Mengchuan I thought that I would probably receive the message in half a year, but while I kept waiting and paying attention every day, the message was never received.
This feeling kept him in a state of anxiety between ice and fire.
No news means a lot of news, and there are many possibilities in the spaceship. These possibilities are the reason why Chen Mengchuan can't calm down.
It may be that the fly civilization has not arrived yet, it may be that the fly civilization has arrived, or it may be that the fly civilization missed Solar System.
No matter which possibility it is, more possibilities will be derived.
These have kept Chen Mengchuan in a state of uncertainty. Although he was always able to adjust himself, the uneasiness was always there, like a cage, always confining him, making him always feel a little heavy in his heart.
When everyone returned to their work after experiencing a snowfall, the entire human civilization on the spacecraft seemed to have regained its strength. Many people who were originally silent began to smile a lot on their faces. Many people who are restless and full of negative energy have become a little more relaxed without even realizing it.
This snow swept away a lot of negative energy.
Chen Mengchuan in the laboratory received an invitation from the parliament, which was sent by the command department of the Earth Federation spacecraft. The signature of the leader was Zhao Wanyu.
He packed up the work at hand, told his assistant a few things, and then left the laboratory.
Earth Federation The spacecraft command department was very busy, Chen Mengchuan discovered it when he arrived.
Several people even greeted him with a smile. This made his face soften a lot.
After nodding to Zhao Wanyu, Chen Mengchuan found his seat and sat down calmly.
The meeting officially started soon after everyone arrived.
In the first half of the period, the parliamentary representatives had daily exchanges and reported on many tasks in the spacecraft. Chen Mengchuan did not know many of these things, and he had never paid attention to them. They were all daily affairs of the command department, led by Zhao Wanyu and a group of senior officials.
As the daily parliamentary content came to an end, many people began to turn their attention to Chen Mengchuan, and Chen Meng felt it keenly.
Sure enough, after the final work exchange report, new topics were raised.
"Then let's talk about the second part of the topic."
"Should we start looking for environmentally friendly planets nearby for resettlement?" Zhao Wanyu's words were calm with a lot of excitement that couldn't be hidden.
Chen Mengchuan was slightly stunned.
Zhao Wanyu has not communicated this matter to himself, but obviously all the personnel in the command department already know about it. The confidentiality work before this meeting was done very well.
As the words fell, everyone's eyes focused on Chen Mengchuan.
"I think Minister Chen should have enough say in this matter. What do you think?" Zhao Wanyu looked around at the crowd. Everyone nodded in approval, with a lot of expectations on their expressions.
The gravity microphone quickly flew to Chen Mengchuan.
The entire venue suddenly became quiet.
This is to defeat his own army. Chen Mengchuan glanced at his wife, and found that women are indeed stingy. He probably remembered it now. Zhao Wanyu asked him a few days ago if it would be a good time to find a planet to settle down on. However, he was busy thinking about the progress of several projects at the time, so he ignored her and just said a few perfunctory words to her, "Look again, look again."
I never expected that I would be pushed directly to the stage today and asked to express my opinion on this matter.
Taking the microphone, Chen Mengchuan pondered for a moment, and then slowly spoke, "With our current technology and conditions, it is not difficult to find a suitable habitable planet. There are countless such planets in the universe."
The first sentence starting with Chen Mengchuan brought hope to everyone.
"We haven't stopped to look for this thing because I think we are not far enough away from Solar System. This distance is not considered a safe zone."
"But if everyone's wishes are strong, then we are willing to stop the spacecraft and choose a suitable planet among the nearest Star System so that the human civilization on the spacecraft can have a home first."
Everyone's emotions suddenly became excited, and the emotions made many people burst into tears in an instant, making it difficult to calm down.
Chen Mengchuan's word "home" made everyone tremble.
