"The combined fleet of China and Future Technology has successfully changed the original orbit of Ceres, and now, Ceres is flying towards the inner ring of the solar system, and it is expected that at 13:22:15 on October 10, 2023, Ceres will collide with Mars with a 100% collision probability.

The news instantly detonated the world.

Although the 9.43 billion tons of dwarf planet was indeed pried into the supercomputer simulation, it was only a simulation after all, and there was still a hint of skepticism.

At this point, the doubts are gone, and people can only give a thumbs up and say a thumbs up!

Of course, doubts and worries still exist, some people believe that the environment of space is full of variables, more complex than the earth, how many million times more complicated, and human beings lack enough understanding of space, the results obtained by computers, is it really reliable?

What if, with errors in the calculations, Ceres misses Mars and crashes into Earth, or does it fall directly into the Sun under the influence of the Sun's gravity, causing a solar flare to erupt?

Even if Ceres did collide with Mars, would it change the orbit of Mars, and thus the orbit of the Earth, thereby disrupting the fragile balance of the solar system and causing the solar system to collapse?

There are many similar remarks, in short, the earth is afraid of being wiped out, the solar system may collapse, and mankind will be completely finished.

These remarks are somewhat alarmist, but many people have "doomsday plots" and are particularly concerned about this kind of doomsday prophecy, so these negative remarks have been spread wildly in a very short period of time, making many people feel heartfelt fear, what if it is true?

In the face of these doubts, Zhang Wei stood up and accepted an interview with the media.

Zhang Wei said, "The Mars transformation project, led by me and 2,500 top scientists from all over the world, we have taken into account every celestial body with a diameter of more than 3 meters that has been discovered in the solar system, and have made detailed calculations of various factors such as the orbit and gravitational force of these celestial bodies, and these data are full of 16 million items, and then we used 60 state-of-the-art supercomputers to simulate, every slight change in Ceres, Mars and what the consequences of the solar system are reflected in the simulation.

Therefore, I and the 2,500 scientists who participated in the Mars transformation project can guarantee that this operation is safe and there is no error! In fact, you can also think about it, I and these scientists also live on the earth, and we will not risk the destruction of the earth to forcibly push forward the Mars transformation plan. ”

"If there are still people who are not at ease, you can recall the power of the electromagnetic railgun, the electromagnetic cannon on a 'Future' spacecraft can destroy a comet, and now there is a huge fleet staring at Ceres, and this fleet will not watch Ceres threaten humanity. ”

"As for the collapse of the solar system? I can tell you unequivocally that the solar system is not as fragile as everyone thinks, and the mass of Ceres is really insignificant compared to the solar system, and the changes it can cause are equally insignificant......

During the interview, Zhang Wei also asked Beidou to publish some data, data models, and simulation results on the company's official website.

After the media reported the interview with Zhang Wei, people finally let go of their worries, many people can't understand the data, but they are willing to believe Zhang Wei, this is Zhang Wei's influence now, his words, even if they are wrong, will be regarded as the truth by countless people, and repeatedly studied and interpreted, this is the right to speak brought by status.

The popularity of Ceres-related news did not last long, only two or three days later, it was forgotten by people, because there are too many big news today, China annexes a country every few days, the formation of the American Federation is in full swing, and the news of the European Federation, the African Federation, and the Arab Federation is also one after another, so that many people are overwhelmed, but they have to pay attention, because these things are closely related to each of them!

As for the countries of the world, they were stimulated by the strength shown by China's operation to pry Ceres, and after learning from their own scientists that Ceres would not pose a threat to Earth, they put the matter aside and accelerated the pace of forming a federation again. They must quickly integrate resources and catch up with China as soon as possible!

May 17, 2023.

In the huge asteroid belt, 667 spaceships flew tightly in front of Ceres, but the speed and direction of all spacecraft were exactly the same as Ceres, which means that the spacecraft maintained a relatively stationary state with Ceres, and did not exert a pulling force on Ceres. In addition, the 1,000 fusion propulsion devices on Ceres were also turned off at this time, and it was completely dependent on the gravitational pull of the sun and other celestial bodies, constantly flying towards the inner ring of the solar system.

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

In a "Tiangong 2nd Generation" spaceship, Yang Rui gave an order to artificial intelligence.

Although in the previous calculations, the probability of collision between Ceres and Mars is 100%, but he does not dare to be careless, basically every hour will instruct the artificial intelligence to calculate according to the latest data, before the collision between Ceres and Mars, this work has been done to ensure that there will be no mistakes, otherwise not only will the Mars transformation plan suffer a major setback, but the earth may also suffer a catastrophe.

"Your Excellency, Ceres is still orbiting according to the last calculation, and the probability of collision with Mars is 100%. At the time of the collision, Ceres' velocity and impact angle were also in line with the requirements. ”

Hearing the answer given by the artificial intelligence, Yang Rui nodded, and then gave an order to all the spaceships, "Spacecraft No. 2, spacecraft No. 3, spacecraft No. 7...... Spacecraft No. 317...... Break away from the fleet. ”

This order was actually conveyed to him by the lunar command center, because the plan went smoothly, and the fleet only needed to make minor adjustments to Ceres' orbit when there was a deviation in Ceres' orbit, and there was no longer a need for so many ships. Next, 300 spacecraft will leave the fleet to catch other asteroids within the asteroid belt, either back to Earth or to Mars.

Shortly after the order was given, the 300 spaceships broke away from the fleet, spewing blazing white tail flames, and split into formations to find their targets.

"Launch the 3D scanning device and search for nearby asteroids. ”

"Start the Asteroid Spectrum Analyzer ......"

In every formation, the excited voices of the astronauts sounded, and next, they were about to start their treasure hunt. That's right, it's a treasure hunt. According to the previous explorations of Future Technology's spacecraft, the asteroids in the asteroid belt are mainly divided into three categories.

The first category is carbon-rich C-type asteroids, which account for more than 75% of the total.

The second group is silicon-bearing S-type asteroids, which account for 17% of the total number of asteroids, and the spectra show that their surface contains silicates and some metals, but the composition of carbonaceous compounds is not obvious. This suggests that they are significantly different from the composition of the original solar system, possibly due to the melting mechanism of the early solar system, which led to the result of differentiation.

The third category is m-type asteroids, which account for about 10% of the total number, and their spectra contain iron-nickel-like spectral lines, which appear white or slightly red, and have no absorption lines. The m-asteroid is presumed to have been formed by a devastating impact of a core dominated by iron-nickel matrix.

M-shaped asteroids, which are rich in iron and other metal resources, are rare treasures for mankind, because human modern civilization is inseparable from steel, and if you want to enter space, you also need more steel to build spaceships. In addition to iron, there are many M-type asteroids rich in precious platinum series metals such as nickel, manganese, platinum, iridium, palladium, etc., and the metal deposits on an M-type asteroid may exceed the total amount of similar mineral deposits on Earth.

In addition, there are special asteroids that every fleet is looking for, such as asteroids rich in water, asteroids rich in oxygen, or priceless asteroids full of diamonds and platinum......

It is no exaggeration to say that compared with the eight planets, the asteroids lurking in all corners of the solar system are the real tyrants of the solar system. And the asteroid belt, which has more than 500,000 asteroids, is a tyrant concentration camp!

"The discovery of an asteroid with a diameter of about 103 meters and a speed of 16.7 kilometers per second is 97,600 kilometers away from the spacecraft. According to the spectral analysis data, the asteroid is an M-type asteroid with an albedo of 0.1675, a density of about 3.53 grams per cubic centimeter, a mass of about 3.8332 million tons, and a surface material containing 39.3% iron, 21.2% nickel, 11.7% carbon and 19.2% oxygen......"

In a "Starry Sky 3rd Generation" spacecraft, after Wang Chen heard the report of artificial intelligence, he couldn't help but quickly calculate, the mass is 3.8332 million tons, and the iron content is 39.3%, so after refining, about 1.5 million tons of steel can be obtained, and the value of these steels is about 4 billion yuan according to 2,600 yuan per ton......

"The value is too low!"

Wang Chen said that he was quite disdainful, his target this time was not these small fish and shrimp, but the asteroid 241, with mineral resources worth up to 95.8 trillion US dollars!

Asteroid 241, also known as Germany 241, was discovered by the German Carl Theodor Robert Luther in Düsseldorf, Germany on September 12, 1884, in 2012, a website called Asterank in the United States evaluated the mineral resources on the asteroid 241, and believed that it has sufficient iron, copper, titanium, gold, silver and other minerals, with an estimated value of 95.8 trillion US dollars, exceeding the total GDP of the world in 2011!

Perhaps influenced by the evaluation results, in 2012, two Google executives and the big director Cameron and others founded the first company aimed at mining asteroid resources "Planetary Resources", which also had the idea of asteroid 241, but because asteroid 241 is located in the distant asteroid belt, the company had to abandon the plan to mine asteroid 241 and instead set its sights on asteroids that are closer to Earth and easier to reach. It is worth mentioning that the company "Planet Resources" is still making technical preparations, and not even a single near-Earth asteroid has been mined. Of course, without the emergence of future technology companies, the future of this company may really be limitless, because there are many asteroids worth more than a trillion dollars in space, such as: 4034vishnu asteroid is worth 2.51 trillion US dollars, 2000BM19 asteroid is worth 3.44 trillion US dollars, and 3200 phaethon asteroid is worth 870 billion US dollars...... By capturing one of these asteroids, they could instantly become the world's largest company.

However, now it is not the turn of this American company to mine asteroids, and the proven asteroids, as long as the assessed value exceeds 50 billion yuan, have been targeted by Future Technology Companies and China, and even the ownership of asteroids has been divided, for example, the asteroid 241, which is worth up to 95.8 trillion US dollars, belongs to Future Technology Company, which is partly to compensate for the concessions made by Future Technology Company in the division of Martian land. Of course, other asteroids of high value have also been allocated to the national side.

Of course, Asteroid 241 is not so easy to catch and mine. Asteroid 241 has a diameter of 168.9 kilometers and a mass of about five thousandths of that of Ceres, that is, 5,000 trillion tons, which is also a behemoth! However, the Future Technology Company has made full preparations for this, and what went to Asteroid 241 with Wang Chen was a large formation composed of 53 spaceships of the Future Technology Company, led by two "Star 3 Generation" spacecraft, and with the strength of this formation, it was completely able to pry asteroid 241.

It is worth mentioning that the commander of this formation is Wang Chen. As one of the first astronauts of Future Technology, he was trained by the company and stood out, recognized by the company's top management, and had a high status among astronauts.

……

Eleven days later, 53 spacecraft crossed the ocean and found their hunting target, Asteroid 241.

The surface of asteroid 241 is covered with a layer of soil with a high iron oxide content, which makes it a red planet similar to Mars, and the surface layer of asteroid 241 happens to have a lot of ice, which reflects beautiful sunlight and makes asteroid 241 look beautiful and full of dreams.

"It's so beautiful!"

There are many people who are sighing.

In 2012, the valuation of this planet was as high as 95.8 trillion US dollars, which is a lot of small money! If you can give me 1%, even 1/10,000, I can become a super tyrant! Space is such a good place!

"Haha, money fan! To tell you the truth, this planet will not be sold, but left for our company's own use, with this planet, our company will not be short of iron and titanium in fifteen years. In addition, our company will sell spaceships in a while, I heard that there is a preferential policy for employees within the company, if you want to make money, maybe you can find a few local tyrants to partner, buy a few spaceships, to capture asteroids in space, although the asteroids worth more than 50 billion yuan have been booked by our company and the country, but asteroids worth billions and three or four billion abound, if you are lucky, you can earn billions, or even tens of billions of dollars in one trip!"

"Is this news reliable? If it is, I'd really like to fight it, but if I leave the company, I won't necessarily have a chance to get a potion like the D-200...... Hey, it's really tangled!"

……

"Everyone, let's get to work, when we ship asteroid 241 back to Earth, the company will definitely have a lot of rewards, maybe give our family a reward of D-200 potions in advance!

Wang Chen's words instantly mobilized the morale of the astronauts, these astronauts have a very good income, for most of them, money is no longer the first thing, honor, and the D-200 medicine that can prolong the life of their families, is what they want to get the most! Moreover, they also believe that the company must have a more powerful medicine than the D-200 medicine, which may extend people's life expectancy to 500 years or even 1000 years old, which is what they dream of!

The astronauts immediately started their work with vigor like chicken blood, just like dealing with Ceres, weaving a huge network of nanocarbon materials in space, and completing the encirclement of asteroid 241, next, these 53 spacecraft will drag asteroid 241 out of its original orbit, and then use the gravitational pull of the sun, Mars, Earth and other celestial bodies to make asteroid 241 continue to slide down to the inner ring of the solar system, and all they have to do is to adjust the orbit of asteroid 241 and let the new orbit pass through the moon. When asteroid 241 approaches the lunar range, they have to work on asteroid 241 again, constantly slowing down asteroid 241 while using the moon's gravity to make asteroid 241 rotate around the moon. When resources are needed, they can be mined directly on asteroid 241. The reason why the moon was chosen instead of the earth was for the safety of the earth, after all, there is only one earth for human beings!

"Let's go!"

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

……

"100% power output!"

"yes! Yes, asteroid 241 is out of its original orbit!"

"Continue to make adjustments to the orbit of asteroid 241 so that its new orbit passes the moon!"

……

Another huge asteroid is packaged as a "courier".

Address: Moon!
