The Waistband of these moving following the movement of artificial hands was the only way to attach the stone equipment. To each robot was attached a heavy duty rope. An automated probe, carried out by remote control from Earth drilling, driving all the wires into one and connect them to the launcher. The installation, resembling a small-size missile, produced on the surface of the asteroid and the space around it all that I brought with me. Even in vacuum conditions around small-size asteroids, it was only a small boost to everything that is not attached, began to move independently in any direction. Catch not bound to the detail was difficult, even where he could help the neighbors.
Having reached the asteroid, rare modules falling on its surface under its own weight, because gravity was negligible. For the first dock with a successful hit to the ground often would be enough to release the hoses from the water with soap, so she immediately froze and gave the first mount, and at the same time and disinfection. Even in the ice of the Arctic is inhabited by bacteria, with alien too afraid to face, every owner of the development. But water and soap are almost never used, replacing them with synthetic molecular compounds. When mixed, both substances become sticky and grasp, gaining strength, not decreasing at high and low temperatures. Irradiation at specific frequencies did tar more poignant. With its help, it was possible to separate the module from the asteroid. But this technique was not so often. The programmers of the Earth chose to reconcile all the movements of the house and over the years the flight before landing, to waste less of the precious material. Every kilogram of body weight of the sealant becomes a rejection of a hundred robots on the construction design and packaging of radioactive waste.
– How much more convenient where there is gravity!
And the metal is not soldered, it is necessary only to fold two of the cut, with the air of a connoisseur scolded conditions in space Neil.
The collapse of the asteroids on Mars had two goals: scientific and practical. Both was to conduct experiments and observations associated with the construction of the planet's surface. The stones were small, but they were made of the future of mountains and continents, the surface would someday grow earth trees, there is a need to find a place familiar to the Blue planet animals. While all this is only distant plans, but the laboratory of the Earth used the millions of computers to test theories about how to decontaminate a new soil and air. The systems work is easier to compare and familiar earthly. Therefore, the General scheme and professionals for control stations that took the insurance of food security. System help food producers were once created in order to not have to use the threat of genetic modification or antibiotics for safe keeping. It was introduced with the battle. The opposition raised the whole demonstration, but more and more people fought, demanding harmless to human food. Only under the pressure of reforms started. Not immediately paid program, but their excellence is appreciated still.
– Don't you forget about the solar cells? If electricity will be enough for all of the modules that will make leads up to the mines.
– Still, have to use batteries. Another from the wires technique will fly so that the most skilled detectives will not reveal the cause of death devices.
– Strangled the neighbor's wire, want you to say?
If you look at the earth system the food industry where their portals already offer the user to earn with their help, one can see the main paragraphs. They – the main work of applied analysis. Education of the thousands of textbooks they are classified and transferred to the vector scheme. Their mazes have become the basis of digital circuits’ transitions. A visitor to the site receives a text with pictures where all of his questions arise in minutes. Chapters for small-scale farmers are full of pictures and buttons to search for stores in an area. No problem, they choose the carrier, destination; consider the price for the work.
When a firm appears in the tables they follow a load. If it is in containers on the highway, they have the right to ask the driver to submit photos or the area around to make sure particular employees. Every refrigerated item is sold by the meter, the camera will always show the condition of the products in the warehouse. Advertising portals are the ability to order the work anywhere and at any time of the day. The results are normal, the exceptions are insignificant. The workers themselves attracted payment and the required minimum actions. Do not waste time on quarrels and caprices, people almost do not spoil each other's nerves, because all actions go through the steps where there are no expectations and leaving without a job due to the fact that the boss would also participate in his personal life.
You kicked our stone well.
I also see that its rotation is slowing down.
Someday, our descendants will be to juggle the asteroids as in the circus.
They will be useful to make contact with the God of war on the peace front.
I hope that each poker will hold without the desire for revenge.
Among the military, it happens.
Asteroid attack, provoked by the people, was to strengthen the rotation of Mars. The future planet with the earth's gravity will be the place with the same length of day. The asteroids were carriers of chemicals, without which the colonization of Mars by humans would be unlikely. On the Ground in almost every state were institutions that were involved in the construction of robotic factories using the connections on the Blue planet have not met, but promised great benefits of the virtual miners. It was the catalysts and components for molecular switches, which are used in electronics.
Asteroids increased the mass of Mars, but those that contain water, especially heading to the warmest region of Mars – near the equator. There they gradually melted, releasing CO2 into the atmosphere, thereby compacting it. They have only practiced a soft landing, because their location was among the caves, sheltering plants for decontamination of soil. If Mars were built a faster way to hide the technique from the storms didn't help, new stones covered them. But the plan of its architects, the most important was the choice of location, material quality and upbringing of the new humanity in the work. Because of this, the building was identified as a cult and promised to finish it in two hundred, then eight hundred years.
Work on the study and the towing of asteroids only in the company of Neil and Irene carried out a group numbering a hundred and seventeen people. Only in the asteroid belt worked fifty-two automated probe from Roscosmos, and they rarely trust the plants to the students or Amateurs. Every year in the area of the Asteroid Belt from Earth was sent an automated cargo spacecraft to probes of nuclear warheads and launchers. Within a few years of work on Mars was dropped over 500 asteroids of different sizes. They are not materially changed the conditions on the red planet. But this does not bother scientists. The work had only just begun.
And Mars accumulated physical, chemical and raw potential to become in the future a planet suitable for human life.
Did you check all the controllers supply the data?
– No, but the alarm has not yet filed.
– There's no need to rely on automation, if you're observing a site where not a soul around.
– I try to cherish the time. Now put the machine on the dock and see what's behind.
The probe, led by Neal finally made it to the desired square. By the fence of the ground, he began drilling, in parallel, exploring just taken the test. After 10 minutes was given the first results. Neal had already prepared them to look like the signal's gone.
– Know well about this and always forget! – in the hearts he said aloud. Irina only smiled, continuing to gaze into your monitor. Neal crossed his arms and began to wait the required ten minutes, while the asteroid does not return the probe to the area of the signal. Finally got a signal, it became possible to continue the work.
The studied square was a vast piece of dry ice. Around him was the hard plot, which had to land the module to gain a foothold where the devices are not on the fragile ice, where the blows of the equipment of the machine when you return to fly off into space. Only after the generator will give the signal about the acceleration to the required voltage of electricity, it will be possible to place equipment. Neil finished the job and handed over her night shift. Their managers were experienced, but he knew that in the event of unforeseen difficulties it will Wake the night bell. Home he went, thinking that it is time to go on a diet for the nervous. In the morning woke up thinking that I forgot to turn on the phone and only after convinced that everything is in order, he could afford to say that the most important work of planting is done.
Next week his whole work was devoted to creating ways for off-site analyzers. In weightlessness had to come up with methods of attachment that would hold the equipment when you travel to the right place, but the most difficult was the mounting method where the module was supposed to strike on the ground to extract a core sample. Some of them can be delivered in the automatic laboratory in the Zone. The most interesting were taken to the Ground from there, after all, hardly anyone wanted to do it at their own expense. States all over the world love to protect their borders, the same could be said about the posts, millions of miles from their capitals. Most countries did not like to associate with since there were rumors about the rise of prices of samples for the future industry of Mars. Each country was secretly hoping to put their necks on the valuable specimen of the breed and bring it to their own territory. Because of this policy, they forked at free for owners of the mines delivery. Of course, many countries were willing to deceive the beginner, hiding the true value of the sample. But it was easy with only the rare minerals and the gullible pilots who were ready to accept the incoming offer to buy their mines.
More experienced to know that if you come too quickly the buyers, know that your mine is worth at least a hundred times more than they offer.
– Have you worked, when he opened the lunar ice?
That you, it was in 2013-2014, almost immediately after the discovery of the Martian. Then it was almost forgotten. The boom in development began only after the first programmers decided to make the game for mobile, as usual, and give online players the opportunity for money to steer a real Rover.
– The players were not any and then the game is not free – with a true connoisseur noticed Neal.
Of course, but who but a millionaire could afford to send from the Land the vehicle, weighing at least thirty pounds?
– Programmers are clever. Now you can play for free… no, to work on a miner, fingering his samples. They came up with around this much bonuses and clans for the company that some are even willing to spend some little thing that goes in the pocket of the creators of the tools.
The experience was a rewarding pastime in every sense of the word, Irina was not accustomed to condemning Golden for stores requisitions from students. There are traditionally bad followed so that children are not spending too much. The Terrans watched that inequalities in childhood, not forced the offended to go to work in the security services and the police, then to brutally oppress their former oppressors, children of wealthy parents, inheriting a family business.
Doctors cure to save a person's life. We will save civilization itself, to ensure that through the centuries he had two planets for habitation, – has reminded Neil.
– I hope to before this time it will be in time not to destroy their home.
Went quieter operation. It was important to find a place where the rock was solid, but not so much that it was impossible to drill the tabs. Radar probing of the terrain pointed out that under the small top layer is ice with a size from 10 to 17 meters, a length of 2 km and a width of 800 meters to 1 km. after Receiving these data, Neal introduced them in a common data table on the asteroid and got a total result. Asteroid 77% consisted of frozen water. Of course, on Earth, would it not considered to be so valuable, because it was full of impurities that it remains for us to break down chemists. But that was enough to classify the find in the group "Atmosphere". This stone was suitable for sending to Mars, if it is low radiation. And need researchers, because the work of cleaning the water of impurities begin many years before his arrival on the planet. There was hope that despite the long stay in space most of the radiation struck the upper soil layer, rather than internal, the most valuable part.
– Have you seen the new system hoses for the air ducts?
– They propose to use to supply the material to the other side of the satellite. But I do not believe that cost-effective to carry here the weight. If one such hose comes air, precipitation of toxic catalysts will remain on the walls of the material. They still freeze after around cold. The experiments will be those substances which are distinctly different in composition from the conventional chemistry of these places.
The journey was undertaken once passed the aircraft at the zone. Many said that with telescopes of the Earth you can see most of the spectra of rocks on their soil. But this belief was based more on advertising companies for the sale of the telescope and shares their system of management than on the principles of savings of the overall effort of construction. Some of the stones had small inclusions of rare materials, they were difficult to find. Many of the asteroid radiated the needed range, but the data is accurate the technique was hit by a background in signal transmissions. It was created not only covering the view from the Land to the neighbors, but also their chemical composition. Diffraction of waves perceived by the observatories of the Earth, increased from the radiation of cosmic dust and other phenomena, they decreased the probability of a precise definition of the waves. Therefore, the orbit of the Belt run robots. First flew it for shooting. Another group, already a commercial use engaged in the interesting Geology of each area.
