Spaceship Commander News

[p][/p][p]May you have cosmic successes this year!⭐ [/p][p]And new knowledge about space and many, many, many tons of valuable ore are waiting for you![/p][hr][/hr][p]A new update will be released in the near (relatively:) future, where new consumables will be added. To ensure the full functionality of the ship, it will be necessary:[/p][p]1) Fuel for a power plant (helium-3 for a thermonuclear reactor).[/p][p]2) Fuel for main engines, which are used for take-off and landing on planets.[/p][p]3) Warp fuel for traveling through the star system in warp mode.[/p][p]New resources will also be introduced, from which fuel will be produced.[/p][hr][/hr][p]How many Earth days lasts for 1 year (1 revolution around the Sun) on different planets:[/p][p]- Mercury: 1 year = 87.9 Earth days[/p][p]- Venus: 1 year = 224.7 Earth days[/p][p]- Earth: 1 year = 365 Earth days :)[/p][p]- Mars: 1 year = 686.9 earth days[/p][p]- Jupiter: 1 year = 4332 Earth days (12 Earth years)[/p][p]- Saturn: 1 year = 10759 Earth days (23 Earth years)[/p][p]- Uranus: 1 year = 30685 Earth days (84 Earth years)[/p][p]- Neptune: 1 year = 60190 Earth days (165 Earth years)[/p][p]- Pluto: 1 year = 90553 Earth days (248 Earth years)[/p][p][/p]

[p]Today is the winter solstice!🌞[/p][p][/p][p]On the day of the winter Solstice, the longest night and the shortest day are observed in the Northern Hemisphere, while on the day of the summer solstice, on the contrary, the longest day and the shortest night are observed compared to any other day of the year.[/p][p][/p][p]After today, the day begins to slowly increase and the night begins to shorten.[/p][p]By the way, this day is a holiday for many peoples![/p]

[p]Just a walking trip of a crew member in an exosuite on the planet ☣Vreada (analog of the planet Venus).[/p][p][/p][p]At the moment, this is the only way to get out of the ship without being instantly ☠destroyed by crazy weather effects, where the temperature is about 400 degrees🔥. By the way, the ship gets at least a little damage here, but still.[/p][p][/p][p]And this is what the planet looks outside. By the way, that cloud of gas over there is a part of the planet's atmosphere that is being blown away by a star. You can fly into this cloud and start mine the gas, but this requires the "Gas harvester station" module.[/p][p][/p][p]In the future, I'm thinking of significantly expanding the fleet of equipment and spacesuits capable of longer stays on similar planets surfaces, but it will still be very expensive equipment, and even it won't guarantee complete safety for a long time. Even super-technologies💾 are not able to guarantee complete safety in such conditions.[/p]

[p]The first spacecraft to successfully land on the surface of Venus is 55 years old! ⭐[/p][p][/p][p]The Venera-7 station is a real breakthrough in space exploration. After working for 20 minutes on the surface of the most ferocious🔥 and deadly☣ planet in the Solar System, the device transmitted valuable data on the temperature of the atmosphere and surface, as well as pressure data.[/p][p]The body of the device was made of titanium📏, replacing the aluminum alloy of earlier versions of the Venus series devices. This allowed him to stay so long at a temperature of 450°C and a pressure of 100 atmospheres! Plus, an interesting ❄cooling scheme was applied - before entering the atmosphere, the lander was deeply cooled to -8°C using an external refrigeration unit. The device itself did not have its own "refrigerator" — its role was performed by the large heat capacity of the all pre-frozen titanium structure. Like a huge thermal accumulator, it slowly "absorbed" the Venus heat, which allowed the electronics to work for additional precious minutes after landing.[/p][p]By the way, someday I will add a small base to the game on the planet Venus, there is evidence that it is a little "cooler" at mountain heights, and atmospheric pressure here is not so much "pressing".[/p]

[p]It's always a pleasure to find a crate of ore😎[/p][p]Although you can dig it yourself, the main thing is that there is a desire and a mining drone on board the ship.[/p][p][/p]
