In the icy and silent asteroid belt, 667 spacecraft flew synchronously with Ceres within about 500 kilometers above Ceres, remaining relatively stationary, like Ceres' personal bodyguards. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Subsequently, 16 spaceships broke away from the fleet and flew towards Ceres, 8 of these 16 spaceships are 5 kilometers long 'Star 3 Generation', and 8 are 4.3 kilometers long 'Tiangong 2 Generation', these crystallization of human science and technology, even compared with Ceres with a diameter of 950 kilometers, will not seem too small.

Two minutes later, all 16 spacecraft arrived at the designated location and hovered at a height of 30 centimeters above the ground of Ceres.

The hatch opened, and astronauts and intelligent robots set foot on the land of Ceres, which is a desolate world like the moon, the only difference is that you can see a lot of ice here, and even liquid water, and liquid water, energy sources and certain chemical components (carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, etc.) are the three basic conditions for the existence of life. In fact, the spacecraft of Future Technology discovered during the exploration of Ceres that Ceres, like Mars, also has microorganisms. However, even if there are intelligent beings here, as long as they can't fight the earthlings, they can't stop the earthlings from destroying their homes! When aliens visit the earth, humans will probably suffer the same fate!

"Finally Ceres again!"

Wang Chen looked at the desolate world in front of him excitedly, and muttered to himself, "It's also the last time! Soon, there will be no more Ceres!"

The last time he came to Ceres, Wang Chen's spacecraft was only 100 meters long "Future", and this time, it was the 5-kilometer-long "Starry Sky 3rd Generation", which not only increased in size, but also increased its power countless times, and the "Starry Sky 3rd Generation" was powered by 12 large nuclear fusion atomic furnaces, which could output up to 21 million tons of thrust when the power was fully opened!

Some people may say that compared to the 9.43 billion tons of Ceres, tens of millions of tons of thrust seem insignificant and simply not enough to shake Ceres, however, there is a big difference between space and Earth, that is, there is no air resistance and friction in space! On the earth, the force exerted on an object must exceed the critical value before the object will move, and in space, no matter how small the force is, even if it is only 1 Newton, it can make a planet move, but how much force you use determines the acceleration of the planet, which can be explained by f=ma, where m is the inertial mass, which is the inherent property of each object, it always exists, and prevents the object from changing the state of motion, and a is the acceleration.

Therefore, this fleet is quite capable of shaking Ceres, and it can be calculated.

The 667 spacecraft output about 1.37 billion tons of thrust, and the fleet is preparing to install 1,000 fusion propulsion devices on Ceres, which will output about 1.5 billion tons of thrust, for a total of 2.87 billion tons, this huge force acting on Ceres, in an ideal case, the acceleration is about 3 billionths of a billionth, and after 10 hours, it can move Ceres about 2 meters. Of course, this is only an ideal situation and no other factors are taken into account.

"Let's get to work!"

Wang Chen stretched his body, and then commanded hundreds of intelligent robots behind him, carrying equipment, to the calculated locations to install the nuclear fusion propulsion device, which is the best installation location calculated by the supercomputer, so that the role of the nuclear fusion propulsion device can be perfectly played.

It took two days to complete the installation of 1,000 fusion propulsion devices! It is worth mentioning that these 1,000 fusion propulsion devices are actually 1,000 nuclear bombs, and if something goes wrong, instead of crashing into Mars, Ceres crashes into the Earth, these nuclear bombs will be detonated, and the fleet will also fire at Ceres at the same time to destroy Ceres, and at least make sure that Ceres does not hit the Earth!

"Call it a day!"

Wang Chen and other astronauts took pictures frantically before boarding the spacecraft, and there is no doubt that these photos will become out-of-print materials in the future!

After a while, the 16 spaceships returned to the fleet formation, flying synchronously with Ceres.

"Let's start the second step of the plan!

In a "Tiangong 2nd Generation" spaceship, Yang Rui calmly gave an order.

A small aircraft flew out from each spacecraft, each aircraft carried a huge nano-carbon material network, and these nano-carbon material networks will form ten large enough to net Ceres in space, when the time comes, all the spacecraft work together to pull the super-giant carbon nano-material network, and then cooperate with the thrust of the nuclear fusion propulsion device, make reasonable use of the gravitational pull of the sun and the planets, and send the huge "express" of Ceres to Mars.

In the dark space, a number of intelligent robots are nervously busy, it took three days to form ten super giant nano-carbon material nets, the mesh of these nets is more than 5 kilometers, the diameter of each rope is 2 meters thick, the cost of nano-carbon materials is an astronomical amount, and the cost of carbon nano-materials is more expensive than the same quality of gold, that is, the future technology company has almost unlimited nuclear fusion energy, otherwise it is really unaffordable.

After the completion of the 10 super giant nano-carbon material nets, they were superimposed on each other, and then the ropes made of nano-carbon materials were connected to 667 spaceships, which were more than 4 meters in diameter and more than 150 kilometers in length, which cost a lot of money!

"Your Excellency, Commander, all preparations are in place and ready to begin. ”

"Start executing the third step plan. ”

Yang Rui heard the report of the artificial intelligence on the spaceship and calmly gave an order.

"It's time to start!"

On each spacecraft, the astronauts couldn't help but be a little excited and nervous, this time, there is no room for failure!

All the spaceships changed direction and speed at the same time, dragging a large superimposed net, and flew towards Ceres, the speed of the spacecraft was not fast, and it was only after two hours that it approached Ceres.

"It must be successful!

When the Great Net approached Ceres, everyone prayed in their hearts!

At the same time, on Earth, Zhang Wei also put down the work at hand and waited patiently for the outcome of this matter. Of course, due to the delay in communication, even if he succeeds, it will take him 15 minutes to receive the good news.

"The net is up!"

Everyone has a heart on their toes, and then it is the most critical moment.

All the spacecraft continued to move forward, and at this time, the nuclear fusion on the spacecraft did not produce full power, but only flew at a relative speed of 50 meters per second.

Rumble!

The next moment, all the ropes were tightened, and all the spacecraft began to tremble violently and slow down, and in just a few tenths of a second, under the influence of Ceres, they reduced their speed by 50 meters per second, and remained relatively stationary with Ceres. For each spacecraft, the stress generated by this process is as high as hundreds of thousands of tons or even millions of tons, and if the quality of the spacecraft is flawed, it will be pulled off in an instant! Fortunately, the spacecraft was designed with this problem in mind, and the quality has been strictly controlled during the production process, so that the spacecraft can now be safe and sound.

"Increase the output power and increase the output by 2% per minute. ”

"Watch the ship. ”

Yang Rui calmly gave the order.

"5% of the power output!"

"20% power output!"

Of course, this is only a symptom, in fact it has changed, but it is too small to measure.

"83% power output!"

At this time, the quantitative change caused the qualitative change, and Ceres began to tremble, and the nano-carbon material network was deeply strangled into the surface of the planet, making Ceres look like a broken mirror, with deep cracks everywhere.

"Boom...... Boom ......"

Ceres let out a painful wail, trembling more and more violently, and its rotation became slower and slower.

The force is mutual, Ceres has been greatly pulled, and the spacecraft that are pulling the nanocarbon material network are also subjected to the same amount of force, each spacecraft is the same as Ceres, trembling violently, and the astronauts can all hear the wailing of steel, at this time, they can't help but praise the quality of the company's products countless times! Even so, the spacecraft still has no problems!

"90% power output!"

At this point, everyone cheered, for they had already had the initial success of stopping Ceres' rotation.

"When the fusion propulsion unit is activated, the output power is increased at a rate of 5% per minute. ”

Yang Rui gave an order to the artificial intelligence, and the reason why the fusion propulsion device should be activated now is because when Ceres rotates, it is difficult for the fusion propulsion device to function.

"100% of the ship's output!"

"Fusion propulsion unit output 100%!"

……

After 10 hours, everyone jumped excitedly, because thanks to their unremitting efforts, Ceres finally deviated from its original orbit by 0.3 meters, which should ideally be 2 meters. The reason for this large deviation is that Ceres is also subject to the gravitational pull of the Sun and the planets.

In fact, in the solar system, the greatest force is actually the gravitational pull of the sun.

The mass of the Sun is 99.86% of the total mass of the entire solar system, which means that almost the mass of the entire solar system is concentrated in the Sun, so the Sun has a strong gravitational pull that makes all the planets of the solar system move around it. In addition to the Sun, Jupiter and Mars, two planets close to Ceres, also have a huge gravitational pull on Ceres.

Compared to the gravitational pull of the Sun, Jupiter and Mars on Ceres, the force exerted by the fleet on Ceres is actually insignificant, otherwise it would not have taken 10 hours for Ceres to finally deviate from its original orbit by 0.3 meters, you know, in 10 hours, Ceres has already flown 640,000 kilometers in orbit!

The scientists participating in the Mars transformation program are all real people, and of course they will not talk about moving Ceres aside from gravity, which is completely fantastical!

In fact, in the plan, the role of the fleet is only to get Ceres out of its fixed orbit and pull Ceres towards the inner ring of the solar system, so as to break the fragile balance of Ceres, and Ceres will continue to fly towards the inner ring of the solar system under the gravitational action of the Sun, Mars, Earth, Venus and other celestial bodies, and all the fleet has to do is to constantly adjust the orbit of Ceres to ensure that Ceres will collide with Mars, not with Earth or other celestial bodies!

Of course, this is easier said than done, and in order to do this, it is necessary to accurately calculate the orbit, gravity, and other factors of each planet in the solar system, so that the probability of collision between Ceres and Mars can reach 100 percent! Not only that, but even the speed, time, angle, and other details of the impact must be accurately calculated! To this end, the future technology company has prepared 60 state-of-the-art supercomputers for scientists and calculated them for several months.

After another 15 hours, under the gravitational pull of the Sun, Mars and other celestial bodies, as well as the action of the fleet, Ceres has become cheaper to the inner ring of the solar system for some distance, at this time, it is impossible for Ceres to return to its original orbit, it has a completely new orbit, it may fall into the sun, it may crash into Mars, and it may also crash into the Earth.

"Calculate the new orbit of Ceres, and the probability of a collision with Mars. ”

In the "Tiangong 2nd Generation" spaceship, Yang Rui commanded the artificial intelligence.

"Your Excellency, the new orbit of Ceres is the following elliptical orbit, with 4 intersections with the orbit of Mars, and it is expected that on October 11, 2023 at 9:13:24 a.m., Ceres will collide with Mars, with a probability of 98.32%. ”

At the same time as the artificial intelligence spoke, the virtual screen in front of Yang Rui showed the relevant picture, after reading it, Yang Rui frowned slightly, the probability was only 98.32%, which indicates that his action was wrong, fortunately, there is still a long time to adjust the track.

"To give a solution, make sure that the probability of collision is 100%. ”

Yang Rui said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander.

Step 1: The fleet adjusts its direction to the sun, and the output thrust is reduced to 1.23 billion tons for 73 minutes.

Step 2: The fleet adjusts the direction to Mars, with an output thrust of 1.55 billion tons for 20 minutes.

……”

After continuous adjustment, Yang Rui finally got a satisfactory answer, "...... It is expected that at 13:22:15 on October 10, 2023, Ceres will collide with Mars with a 100% probability of collision. At the time of the collision, Ceres' velocity and impact angle were in line with the requirements. ”

"Haha! success! success......"

When Yang Rui announced the news, everyone in the fleet was boiling!

About 15 minutes later, Zhang Wei, who was far away on the earth, also received the good news, along with this news, as well as the speed of Ceres, orbit and other related data, out of the rigor of scientists, Zhang Wei asked Beidou to calculate according to these data, and after a while, Beidou gave a positive answer, "Boss, the calculation of the fleet is correct." "It is worth mentioning that Beidou was connected to a quantum computer that has reached 52 qubits through a wireless signal just now, so that the results can be obtained so quickly.

Hearing Beidou's answer, Zhang Wei couldn't help but have a bright smile on his face, and if he got Ceres, it means that the Mars transformation plan he proposed has basically succeeded!

At the same time, there are many people cheering in the command center of the moon, future technology companies and other places, and the Mars transformation plan is basically certain to be successful!

The capital, Zhongnanhai, the chiefs and other bigwigs of the country also laughed regardless of their image, as if they had seen the 87.58 million square kilometers of land on Mars, how many people can be raised on such a large land! The population is still too small, and the population must be increased, and 10 billion is not too much! )
