Chapter 529: Listen to Me
PS: Weekend update, thank you for your support. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info grateful! I sincerely ask for your support for the genuine version, and I am grateful! Thanks!
Houston, Texas. Johnson Space Center.
The space center, named after former U.S. President Lyndon Johnson, is located on the shores of Clear Lake, southeast of Houston. This is the heart and nerve center of the entire American space industry. It is also NASA's most important surveillance agency.
The Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida, was responsible for the launch. But then the lift-off flights, information technology exchanges, landings, and so on were all done here.
It has the world's most complete outer space surveillance system. It can communicate with almost all outer space satellites.
Today, the tourist routes, which were once popular with tourists, have been completely closed. A large number of heavily armed personnel completely surrounded the entire huge space center. People who don't have a special pass don't want to get close at all.
Major events related to the survival of mankind are being arranged here in the most elaborate manner. In order to combat the asteroid that is about to bring a devastating disaster, a large number of the world's top experts have been gathered to urgently study the strategy of dealing with it.
Because the speed of the asteroid and the position in which it appeared were so unexpected, there was very little time left for them.
'Boom, boom~~~' In the shrill sound of propellers breaking through the air, several military helicopters with flashing navigation lights slowly landed on the tarmac near the space center. A large number of vehicles immediately rushed to the vicinity of the helicopter.
The cabin door opened, and Ellison, Peck and others, dressed in suits and leather shoes, jumped out of the helicopter first. Immediately, the figures of Xu Promise and Xu Xian appeared in front of all the officers and soldiers.
Although the strictest orders have been received, whatever you see must be treated as if you cannot see it.
However, when these officers and soldiers really saw two Asian men and women dressed in casual clothes appear in this extremely critical place at this critical juncture, their eyes still changed unconsciously.
After all, in the eyes of the vast majority of people, the world is still a predominantly white world. It is difficult for minorities to be present in such a vital place at such an extremely important time, and it is difficult not to attract attention.
Ellison and the others quickly escorted Xu Yu to the car, and then went to the flight control center.
Ellison: They took the promise directly from New York, and then the military plane flew all the way to Houston. From the airport, we took a helicopter to the Johnson Space Center. Almost all of the way was fast, but compared to the asteroids that were tens of thousands of kilometers fast at that time, it was still a lot of wasted time.
At this moment, the promise is indeed trying to save the world. After all, he couldn't watch the world end.
Promise is satisfied with the bustling city life, but he can't bear the apocalyptic scene in despair. At this moment, the promise was agreed with the people here in terms of interests.
Although he was on a plane all the way, he promised to play with his phone as easily as it seemed. In fact, he had already given an order to the Red Queen early to analyze and calculate the super big data to formulate possible coping strategies.
The super-powerful Red Queen, combined with the power promised at this time, gives two options.
One is similar to the advice of those experts, which is to use a high-powered nuclear bomb to detonate at a specific location and time on an asteroid, so as to change the trajectory of the asteroid through the power of the explosion.
The other way is to promise to fly directly to the asteroid. Then he releases all the pure energy he has stored that he absorbs from the sun's rays. It was estimated to be powerful enough to blow the asteroid up.
However, there is a certain danger to this method of making promises. After all, releasing all the energy at once is very likely to cause the promised body to be overburdened and fall into a coma.
Even if the promised physical fitness is extremely good. However, if he is unconscious at the center of an asteroid-level explosion, it is estimated that he will not end well.
The first way is safe and secure, but it requires the cooperation of state-level forces. Promises, even if they already have ideas in their hearts, they will not take the initiative to reveal them at this time.
The convoy soon arrived at the flight control center, and did not even stop at the door, but drove directly into the center hall, stopping in front of the escalator.
Ellison, Peck and the others, who were carrying headsets, were running around Promise like bodyguards hired by Promise, leading the way for him to do the grooming work. They did it very seriously, without the slightest dissatisfaction.
It's not because they promised to destroy the eye of the storm and save their lives. But as an elite, Ellison knows that at this moment, he wants to deal with the asteroid that is crashing rapidly into the earth. This man next to him may be the only hope!
No one wants to live in a cruel end world with no guarantees. No one wants to live the life of sleeping with their eyes open!
"Now everybody, all listen to me." The door to the large conference room in the flight control center was pushed open.
A group of the world's leading astronomers and astrophysicists, who were engaged in a heated debate here, were instantly silenced. With a puzzled expression, he watched Shi Shiran walk into the conference room of the most important place in the world at this moment, a bunch of Asian men and women.
"Who are you?" An astronomer with gold-rimmed glasses pushed his glasses and looked at him suspiciously.
In the face of the end of the world, these astronomers all believe that they will be the ones who will save the world. Everyone is in a posture of self-sacrifice. I was very dissatisfied with the promise that I had just come in and was a guide to the country. I almost spat directly at the promised nose and said who are you?
"I'm the one who can save the world." Xu Yu directly pulled a chair and sat down on the side, looking very serious.
"Hehehe~~~"
"Hey~~~"
"Haha~~~"
The astronomers in this large conference room were all smiling uncontrollably. They don't even bother to respond to such outspoken people.
As for those high-ranking military officials, they knew the identity of the promise, but no one took the initiative to make any explanation for the promise.
Looking at the elites in front of him who were laughing at him, he promised not even the slightest emotion. He has no interest in grinding with these experts at all. According to the calculations of the Red Queen, the closer that asteroid gets, the more dangerous it becomes!
The sudden appearance of the Iron Man armor from the storage space startled everyone. Before they could react, Promise had already raised his arm and activated the bracelet on his wrist.
'Ka~Ka~' A set of suborbital armor specially developed for outer space travel, the Mark 39 Gemini armor was gorgeously disassembled under everyone's gaze, and then quickly put on the body of the promise.
"Do you understand now?" When the promise of a mighty armor stood proudly in the middle of the conference room. Everyone in the room stood up in unison. Everyone's eyes were full of horror!
The people who can enter this large conference room are military and world-renowned top academics, or elites from other departments.
Except for those who already knew Promise's true identity before, the others looked around with a majestic and strong momentum when they saw Promise suddenly put on Iron Man. I know that the legendary Iron Man is here to save the earth.
The conclusions that the red queen can draw will naturally be known by those top thinkers. They also understand that it is most convenient to use a high-powered nuclear bomb to deflect the orbit of an asteroid and leave the orbit of the Earth.
There is no shortage of nuclear bombs in this way, and there are many high-powered hydrogen bombs in the United States. But the problem is how to deliver a powerful nuclear bomb exactly where the asteroid is destined to be at extremely high speed.
It doesn't mean that you can bomb anywhere, but you have to go through a lot of precise calculations and then detonate it in a designated place. But with the level of human technology at this time, this is almost impossible to do. The main reason is that the time is too short. There was no time to prepare.
Even if you rush a rocket into space, you don't have time to adjust the orbit and speed. It can only be a big luck, and it is generally detonated near an asteroid to see luck.
There had been so many fierce arguments between so many experts in the past, and the focus of the debate was what had a better chance of detonating.
Launch vehicles are not ballistic missiles, and they are set off with strict time regulations and many requirements.
But the Grim Reaper didn't give much time to deal with it this time. At most, it is capable of hastily launching a launch vehicle with a high-powered warhead from Cape Canaveral.
Orbital interception is something that should be done in advance. Once the asteroid is too close, it is useless to use ballistic missiles that are originally intended to fly in the atmosphere. When the distance is too close, no amount of bombing can change the final trajectory.
However, at this time, the appearance of Iron Man completely changed everyone's expectations. If there is such a superhero, the possibility of dealing with this crisis is greatly increased. Iron Man's armor should have the ability to fly in space.
"Don't talk nonsense." Promise to make direct demands: "Now all do what I say." Prepare a high-powered weapon that is powerful enough to change its trajectory and place it in the designated position. Then I'll take care of the rest. ”
"We need a detailed plan......"
Before the expert's words were finished, he was promised to go back directly: "Either listen to me, or you will do it yourself." ”
The end result speaks for itself. The promise of the ability to fly in outer space naturally got what he wanted. A superweapon that is enough to change the trajectory of an asteroid's orbit according to the calculations of the Red Queen.
Although things are going very well, and the odds of success in the calculations after the red queen are very high. But Promise began to have a visceral concern.
The keen instincts cultivated by fighting in extremely dangerous environments for a long time made Xu Promise realize that this time it was not so simple.
Before finally taking off to intercept the asteroid in outer space. Xu Yu thought about it for a while, and hung the life-saving jade pendant around his neck on Xu Xian's body!
