Ways to heaven. Colonization of Mars I

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.
Report forms were received, almost without interruption. Focused on the window in the upper right corner. There is always recommended to place the most important information, because the person's gaze automatically follows the page diagonally, ending the path at this point. There is already a window of data, the protocols showed schedule in the regular mode. Now it was necessary to produce the screwing of the Boers. Working with the light exits the probe from the range took more than three hours. As soon as the last drill went into the ground of the asteroid at the appropriate depth, Neal ordered the probe to seal the cables from each of borax in one and connect them to the base, closer to the ceiling so as not to create a large shoulder under the tension of the cable by accidental impacts. The launcher was kept in the probe. They are placed only two. After using a second probe was launched to Ceres – the largest object of the Asteroid Belt. On the orbit of Ceres was a kind of cosmic warehouse where attaches cargo ships sent from Earth. There probes were replenished with fuel, drills, surveillance cameras and other parts needed for the job. You could buy and launch system. The second was an emergency, it can be used for the same purpose, but most were saving in case of occurrence of a random meteorite, which would have to evacuate the base.
