Roaming the universe, all thanks to your many dark skills!

But when Mark was eating a table full of potato dishes, he suddenly lost his appetite.

"Rosen, maybe we should go eat the sweet potatoes or corn you planted," said Mark.

Rosen burst into laughter and said, "Wait a moment, I'll give you another big harvest."

Whether Mark wants to eat it or not, the family must finish this potato meal.

In a place like Mars, even Mark, who is used to spending lavishly, can't do what he did in the United States before.

While eating, as if to ease the sadness brought by the potatoes, Mark talked about his next plans.

"We have to find a way to contact NASA, or if you have a way, you can contact the China National Space Administration." Mark said.

"I can't help it." Rosen shook his head.

This time he was telling the truth. Not to mention that he was a time traveler with no roots, no background and no identity, even if he was in his native world, he would not be able to contact the National Space Administration.

"In that case, then just listen to me." Mark smiled confidently and said, "You just need to accompany me for a trip, and remember to bring all the supplies."

"Don't worry, you'll have potatoes to eat."

"Rosen, it's shameful to stab a friend in the wound!"

"Ha ha……"

After another big meal that night, the two set off together early the next morning.

Mark remained mysterious and didn't say where they were going, and Rosen was too lazy to ask more.

on the earth.

Not long after the No. 2 Mars Rover moved, Minnie, who had been closely monitoring any movement on Mars using satellites, noticed it after obtaining authorization from Director Teddy.

"Where is he going?" Vincent, who was also guarding the computer, was also full of doubts. "He hasn't moved for 13 days. He is not close to Ares 4 at all."

"The problem is that he doesn't have a directional route." Minnie said, looking through the satellite images. "I mean, he might be trying to go around some obstacles."

"What obstacle? That's the Acidalia Plain, a barren land except for..." Vincent suddenly thought of something when he said this and hurriedly went to look for a map.

Then he marked the location of the living module on the map, found the location of the rover, connected the two and extended them, and he found that the Chris Planitia in the northern hemisphere of Mars was in front of him.

This was once the landing site of the US Mars Pathfinder.

"I have to catch a plane." Vincent stood up and said.

........................

Solar Day 93.

Because of Rosen's joining and finally winning the right to drive the Mars rover, Mark's journey was slightly faster by one day than in the original plot.

Just standing on the barren Chris Plain, Rosen really had no intention of wandering around.

"What are you looking for here?" Although Rosen knew what Mark was doing here, he still asked.

"I'm here to find the device that allows us to connect with the Earth." Mark smiled and said, "It's the Pathfinder, which is equipped with the Mars Pathfinder Imager (IMP), the alpha proton X-ray spectrometer, the Atmospheric Structure and Meteorological Experiment (AST/MET), etc...."

"Stop." Rosen interrupted him. "You don't have to tell me all this in detail. I don't understand it anyway. Just tell me how to contact the earth."

"The devices I just described communicate via a 17-watt solid-state amplifier and an X-band low-gain antenna and a dual-axis high-gain antenna (HGA), with a data rate of 700 bits per second. The communications equipment is powered by a 100-watt solar cell and a silver-zinc battery."

Mark said confidently: "I have thought about it carefully. As long as we can provide power and activate the communication device, we can naturally contact NASA."

"It is worth reminding you that there is also a stereoscopic telescope system on the Pathfinder. It is mounted on a retractable pole with an azimuth and elevation drive mechanism. It can see the nearby surface of Mars, and naturally it can see the information we want to convey to them."

At this point, Mark looked at Rosen and raised his eyebrows, as if to say, "I've finished what I'm saying and you can praise me now."

"You are so talented!" Rosen gave him a thumbs up.

Mark laughed and said in Mandarin: "Just so-so, third in the world."

This is also what he learned from Rosen.

Rosen admired Mark very much. Besides his perseverance and never-give-up spirit, what was more important was his profound knowledge.

If he didn't have so many skills and sufficient supplies in his storage compartment, Rosen asked himself if he could survive on Mars alone, he would definitely not be able to do better than Mark.

Therefore, although the praise just now seemed like a joke, it was sincere.

Solar Day 109.

Mars Rover 2 successfully returned to the living module.

Mark then began trying to charge the Pathfinder and use it to contact Earth.

Rosen did not continue to interfere and strolled back to his container villa. He first checked the water and electricity access to make sure there were no problems before taking a hot shower. He also prepared a sumptuous meal for himself. After the delicious meal, he lay down on the bed and went to sleep.

These days, he has been running around with Mark, which has been very stressful for him.

Because I don't want to reveal my secrets too early, I try to use both skills and storage slots as little as possible.

This was a disaster for Lawson, which had long been accustomed to the convenience provided by both.

We had to save money and couldn't take a shower. What was even worse was that two grown men were squeezed into one car, eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping...

Even the manure produced was well preserved at Mark's strong request because he had to use it to grow potatoes.

A day or two would be enough, but after nearly a month, the smell in the car was not just irritating to the eyes, it was simply depressing.

Originally, Rosen wanted to have a good sleep and then think about other things.

But it felt like I hadn't fallen asleep for long when I was woken up by banging on the door.

Rosen now realizes that these Americans are indeed quite annoying.

When Nima didn't lose before, he would ring the doorbell obediently, and if no one answered, he would walk away dejectedly.

Now, after getting familiar with it, it’s just like a fucking husky.

If ringing the doorbell doesn't work, I'll just bang on the door and won't stop until I get you out.

If there was no deep hatred, or if Rosen felt that Mark's character was just okay and that even if he had some minor flaws occasionally, they would not be punishable by death, otherwise, based on the fact that he was in a bad mood when he woke up, he would definitely define him as an enemy and set him on fire.

"What are you doing?" Rosen opened the door and asked unhappily.

"Good news! Rosen, I've got in touch with the Earth." Mark was so excited that he didn't notice how irritated Rosen was.

Not only did he shout excitedly, but without saying a word, he rushed over and gave Rosen two enthusiastic bear hugs.

This guy was busy dealing with communication issues when he came back. He didn't even take a shower, and the smell on his body was quite pure and strong.

Fortunately, Rosen was wearing a space suit, which blocked out the smell to some extent. Otherwise, he would have fainted from such close contact.
