The Solar System, fourth planet-Mars.
A streak of silver shot across the Martian sky!
Mars also had an atmosphere, composed primarily of carbon dioxide, followed by nitrogen and argon, with trace amounts of oxygen and water vapor. However, its density was less than one percent of Earth's atmosphere.
Even so, at a relative velocity of nearly 2,000 kilometers per second, the meteor-like object still blazed a scorching red as it plunged through the Martian atmosphere.
Boom! At last, the meteor completed its "hard landing" on Mars at an angle almost directly toward the planet's center, gouging a hemispherical crater into a Martian plain and throwing up dust over dozens of kilometers.
Once the dust cleared, a puddle of something resembling silver modeling clay lay in the crater, slowly gathering toward its center... This was none other than the "Hawkeye Scout" dispatched to Mars as part of the "Solar System Reconnaissance Network" plan!
Along the way, this "Hawkeye Scout" had continually scattered "Space Spies" to establish observation points while mapping the Solar System Star Map along its route. Now, it had finally reached its destination!
"Mars Landing successful. Begin establishing the Outpost Base!"
At Nie Yun's command, the nearly one hundred kilograms of Mechanical Insects, now gathered together, spread out on the spot. Using the crater several kilometers across as their foundation, they began building various functional facilities and Robot Production Lines, following the Lunar Base's development model!
Before landing on Mars, the Hawkeye Scout had scanned part of the planet's surface during its approach, ultimately selecting this plain as its landing site. After fine-tuning its trajectory, it had landed precisely on target.
Earlier, the Hawkeye Scout had also split off a small satellite and left it in Low Earth Orbit around Mars. The satellite was now adjusting its speed and
