Maidong turned off the psychological test, and the computer reminded her to see a psychiatrist, but this suggestion had no reference value. She was now alone in the joint space station. Who could she go to?

The girl turned up the air conditioning temperature in the crystal cabin slightly, and the space station entered the shadow on the back side of Mars again. A pencil slowly floated past her eyes. If there was no external interference, the pen would move in a straight line at a constant speed until it touched

Bulkhead. Maidong stretched out his hand and flicked it, and the pencil rotated and changed its direction.

Maidong turned around and left the core cabin. She entered the hub node cabin through the interface of the cabin section.

The hub cabin is a nearly spherical cabin. It is located at the very center of the United Space Station and is a crossroads. The hub cabin has the most interfaces and is responsible for docking with other cabins.

On the left is the Hope experimental module, on the right is the Discovery experimental module, and in front is the Harmony service module.

All Ophiopogon japonicus plants are planted in the Hope cabin. There is a complete microgravity plant cultivation system with a total of twelve incubators, each of which has eight units.

Due to environmental constraints, plants cannot be grown in the space station by being planted in the soil, watered and fertilized like on the ground. For plants to grow normally, the space station must have a complex set of special cultivation equipment - this equipment is spearheaded by the Chinese Academy of Sciences

It was developed with full reference to the previous space crop planting systems of the United States and Russia, and added a little bit of the superiority of socialism with Chinese characteristics.

When cultivating plants in a microgravity environment, the transportation of water and nutrients is a very critical link. In a weightless environment, liquids will not flow freely, but will only gather into balls and float around under the action of surface tension, so engineers

We use a special negative pressure porous tube to transport nutrient solution, and the liquid will flow into the substrate of cultivated plants due to capillary action.

What was finally formed was a rather complicated set of equipment. This small space greenhouse was divided into several major modules, and everything from light to moisture to temperature control was automatically controlled by a computer.

Ophiopogon japonicus has planted eight tomato plants, 23 lettuce plants, and 17 potato plants on the joint space station. The plant varieties are all carefully selected on earth and have high growth rates and high survival rates. All tomatoes have set fruit.

The ones that develop faster are already ripe. Ophiopogon japonicus picks the ripe tomatoes and puts them in the refrigerator for storage.

There are still four or five unripe tomatoes, green with red, heavy in the plexiglass box, very pleasing to the eye.

Maidong likes to stay in the Hope cabin very much. In her opinion, this is the liveliest place in the space station, full of life. Although the plants cannot speak, they must be whispering in some way that humans cannot detect.

, Ophiopogon japonicus closes his eyes, as if he can hear their voices, which are full of lively and vibrant breath of life.

Sometimes Ophiopogon japonicus would play music for the tomatoes and potatoes. She heard that soft and soothing music could make the plants grow better... This girl's gentle maternal heart had nowhere to go but to give to these speechless plants.

.

Ophiopogon japonicus opened the incubator and carefully checked the growth status of the vegetables.

"Hmm... Chang, you need to grow faster. The Book of Mountains and Seas next door is already bearing fruit."

Ah Chang is the name of a tomato plant.

Shanhaijing is also the name of a tomato plant.

Ophiopogon japonicus gave each plant a name. The name of the first tomato that sprouted was Runtu, which was the eldest brother.

Ah Chang is the fifth tomato seedling to sprout, so he is the fifth brother.

Shan Hai Jing is the sixth brother.

The tomatoes in the space station are a big family, with eight brothers - tomatoes are monoecious anyway, Ophiopogon japonicus says they are brothers, they are brothers.

The name of the smallest tomato is Xian.

Kunlun Station.

Night has fallen, the stars are bright in the sky, and there is no artificial light pollution. Standing on the surface of Mars, you can see a magnificent Milky Way passing overhead.

If so many bad things hadn't happened, Mars would indeed be a place that could cleanse the soul. Some people say that Kunlun Station is the closest place to the universe in human society, and some people say that going to Kunlun Station is a pilgrimage - indeed some people are.

It was with this idea in mind that I came to participate in the Mars mission.

In the past dozen landing missions, many experts are devout Christians. They traveled thousands of miles to Kunlun Station, on the one hand for scientific truth, and on the other hand to shorten the distance between themselves and God.

But most of these people fell into deep self-doubt after returning to Earth.

It was such a shock to them to actually set foot on another planet. For the first time, human beings used their own feet to measure the breadth of this world. They began to doubt whether the God derived from human beings' own thoughts was really capable of creating such a universe.

——God created everything, which may be a very arrogant anthropocentrism.

In contrast, Tang Yue didn't have so many ideas.

As a materialist atheist who grew up under the red flag, he was influenced by Marx and socialism. The education Tang Yue received since childhood was: Mars? Isn’t Mars just a giant mud egg that orbits the sun like the earth?

Clay eggs, there are several such clay eggs in the solar system, what's so strange about them.

Everything about God and creation is bullshit.

A mediocre person disturbs himself.

whispering sound.

Tang Yue spent a whole day mixing shit today. Kunlun Station may be a holy place far away from the world, but when you mix shit in this holy place all day long, it will no longer be holy.

Tang Yue and Lao Mao pounded two jars of feces, and then put them all in the garage, accompanied by an isotope thermoelectric generator, waiting for them to ferment and mature. There was still a batch of dry feces that had not been processed, and Tang Yue also put them

I put it in the garage and will tinker with it later.

"Old cat."

Tang Yue sat by the porthole, holding his chin and looking out.

"Um?"

The old cat was leaning on the table, with his legs crossed and his eyes closed to relax.

"Last time Maidong told me that he wanted to leave some records for human civilization." Tang Yue turned around and said, "Writing a memoir or something, what do you think?"

The old cat opened one eye.

"Let me ask you, which country is Picasso from?"

Tang Yue was stunned for a moment. Which country did Picasso come from? I think he was taught in this junior high school history class? But it was so long ago that he couldn't remember clearly. Tang Yue knew that Picasso was a famous artist, but in what era and what country did he come from?

I don’t know.

Tang Yue tried his best to recall.

He seems to be a European, or an ancient European.

Maybe the same era as Leonardo da Vinci?

"What's his full name?" the old cat asked next.

Tang Yue:...surname is Bi and name is Jiasuo?

"Picasso did not die until 1973. His full name was Pablo Diego José Santiago Francisco de Paula Guy Nipomoro Crispiano de...

Rose Remedios Ciporiano de la Sandesima Trinidad Maria Parisio Crito Riz Blasco Picasso.

"

The old cat shook his head and closed his eyes.
