At the moment he stood at the foot of Mount Olympus and looked up at this mountain that seemed to pierce the sky. If his eyesight wasn't good enough, maybe he couldn't even see the top of the mountain, no wonder he was shocked.

Because the Olympus Mountain in front of us is the largest known volcano in the solar system, it is about 600 kilometers wide, and the height difference from the foot of the mountain to the top is 21.9 kilometers. What is this concept?

The most famous Mount Everest on earth is only 8844.43 meters high, which means that the height of Mount Olympus is about the height of two and a half Mount Everest stacked together. If it were on the earth, the peaks would be in the clouds. !

But even on Mars, where the atmosphere is very thin, it is difficult to see the top of the volcano if you have poor eyesight, although the **** of the entire volcano is very gentle (approximately 1 to 2.5 degrees near the top of the mountain, about 5 degrees outside).

But its huge width and height make it impossible to see the whole picture from the surface of Mars. For example, the top of the mountain cannot be seen from the edge of a mountain slope, and the edge of the mountain **** cannot be seen from the top of the mountain. In fact, other huge volcanoes on Mars have similar phenomena.

After Lei Tiantang felt his emotions, he also wanted to take a higher view of the whole picture, so he soared into the air, and in just 2 seconds, he flew to a place about 500 high above the peak of Mount Olympus.

From this point of view, this volcano is also a very shocking picture, and the creation of nature is really impossible!

Through the data he saw before, it can be clearly seen that its volcanic crater is composed of six mutually covering sinks, which are about 80 kilometers long and 60 kilometers wide. The crater wall can be as high as 3.2 kilometers. The edge of the mountain is a cliff up to 8 kilometers high, which is rare for other volcanoes on Mars.

"Quafu, did you say that these volcanoes on Mars were formed in the same age when Martian life was destroyed? More than 3 billion years ago, the original vibrant Mars was killed by one or more of its size and mass. After the big meteorite hit, the entire Mars was directly destroyed in this way.

It is as if all the internal lava of Mars spewed out from the other side of the impact and formed these tall volcanoes, and it was this kind of impact that destroyed the entire core of Mars, resulting in the protection of the entire planet’s magnetic field. All disappeared.

Only then did the subsequent air, water and other necessary substances for life first throw out the shock wave generated by the impact to the planet, and then the rest of the rest was stripped out by the solar wind. This may be the cause of the extinction of life on Mars. "Staring at the two craters on the crater, Lei Tiantang told Kuafu his guess.

"Maybe, this should be a more reliable conjecture. After all, according to the survey data, the date when Mars was hit was probably about 1 billion years after the formation of the solar system. At that time, although the solar system had formed a relatively stable celestial system, But the number of various asteroids was still very large at that time.

In particular, the location of Mars is too close to Jupiter. Those asteroids are easily affected by Jupiter's gravitational force and thus change their flight trajectory and hit Mars. Even the formation of the asteroid belt is related to this. Impact is also a normal thing.

The specific situation has to wait for our detection results. I believe that the satellite detectors and login detections we launched this time will have an interesting harvest, and we will be able to prove whether this is the reason at that time! "Kuafu also agrees with this conjecture in the communication system.

Of course, it’s not that the two of them have such a conjecture. Scientists have not made such a conjecture. It’s just that the previous research was based on simulation calculations. The real evidence has to wait for large-scale research on Mars. It can be proved only after field inspection.

"That's right! I'll start doing business! See if there is any speculated liquid water here!" Lei Tiantang nodded and said.

Anyway, when he sees the scenery, he just sees it fresh. Even the stars and planets on the body of the small black hole don't remember how many of them have been swallowed. What kind of peculiar scenery has not been seen? So it was almost enough to be surprised, he did not forget what he mainly wanted to do this time.

So he began to circle Olympus Mountain and began to make a detailed survey while descending it. When he detected the bottom of the mountain in the west, he finally made an amazing discovery!

He discovered the existence of an underground lake here about 700 meters deep from the surface of Mars! It was in a lava channel, a closed space. The area of ​​this underground lake is not very large, about 30,000 square meters, and the deepest place is about 29 meters.

But this discovery was enough to surprise Lei Tiantang, he contacted Kuafu as soon as he discovered this place.

"Haha! Sometimes I think I'm really God's favorite cub! I can't believe I will discover it so soon!

You quickly prepare the laboratory on the spacecraft. I will immediately bring the water collected from this underground lake to carry out the experiment. Maybe I can really find evidence of life in it! "

"Shit! That's because we use technology to calculate the possibility that there is an underground lake there. You will do this detailed inspection later, okay? Or let you search the entire Mars by yourself to see how long it will take you To find it!

Come back quickly when you get the sample. I have sorted out the laboratory a long time ago. I was planning to analyze the sample I just collected~lightnovelpub.net~ Now it seems that it is more reliable to analyze your sample first! Kuafu spit out without giving face.

Because it just unearthed some ice and some rocks from the ground near the spacecraft for analysis in the laboratory, of course he has reason to be unhappy about doing this kind of experimentation for others at the beginning of the experiment, even this It doesn’t work if you are your own boss.

"Go away! Can your samples be more important than the samples in my hands? Wait, I'll be back soon!" Lei Tiantang cursed with a smile.

In fact, Lei Tiantang in the entire underground lake has initially used his abilities to detect it. There is no life conforming to the standard life form. He has not sensed it whether it is a larger life or a life such as bacteria.

But he was the first time to do this kind of thing. He was not sure that there were no lives in the lake that he hadn't seen, so he took some samples back to the spacecraft and used the laboratory equipment on the spacecraft to test it again. Just take a look.

Maybe a new life form will be discovered? Therefore, Lei Tiantang collected a total of 2,000 lake water samples from various places in this underground lake, and planned to bring them back for a detailed investigation.
