Chapter 470: The Vanishing Pluto
After listening to Su Yichen's explanation, Raymond. The smile on Anthony's face turned bitter, and his heart sank to the bottom.
As a former big man, a successful person who has experienced 500 years, Raymond. Anthony once thought that nothing would make a big wave in his mood anymore, even when he was suddenly pursued by several fleets in the red dark nebula, Raymond. Anthony also showed a gentlemanly posture who was not alarmed, but now, everything Su Yichen said was simply unbelievable to him, and even more unacceptable to him.
Back then, Raymond. Anthony betrayed his civilization and became a lackey in Gaia, although there was a reason for him, and what he did was not only because of persecution, but also because he intended to preserve a little blood for the civilization of the earth in this way. No matter what history says about him, Raymond. Anthony never thought that he had really done anything wrong in his heart, in his opinion, if there was no unexpected appearance of the earth base, the earth civilization would have been completely wiped out in that war, and in this case, only his choice could leave a part of the earth civilization and make its civilization continue.
But even so, in fact, in the heart of Raymond. Anthony once asked himself, is it really a wrong choice? But after many inquiries, he was convinced that in that case it was more practical to compromise than to make senseless sacrifices. This is of course because he is a businessman, and as a businessman, many times he tends to put his interests first, and other issues are not important.
In any case, when leaving the Earth and the solar system, Raymond . . . The sadness in Anthony's heart cannot be faked, and his deep affection for his civilization is also sincere. For so many years, in the distant red and dark nebula, Raymond. Anthony misses home all the time. Missing the Earth. How many times did he dream in his dreams that he was coming home, returning to the home of his dreams. But when he woke up from the dream, he found that it was empty, and all that was left for him was the memory of the dream.
When he was on Earth, Raymond. Anthony seeks eternal life. But when he got the so-called "eternal life" and lived so long, he missed life on earth again. No one knows if now put the two options of eternal life and home in Raymond. In front of Anthony, he was willing to give up eternal life and choose to go home. In his seemingly unwavering heart, the obsession to go home grew stronger and stronger as time went by.
But now, Su Yichen told him that they didn't know why they had crossed the time coordinates, and when they returned to the solar system, time was no longer the time it used to be. Maybe hundreds of millions of years have passed, the solar system is still there, and the earth may still be there, but no one can guarantee whether the earth civilization they are familiar with still exists.
"You say, is our homeland, our civilization still there?" With a hint of trill, Raymond. Anthony asked.
Su Yichen thought for a while and replied solemnly: "I can't give you an answer, only when we return to the solar system, the answer will naturally be revealed." Of course. I also hope that our civilization will still exist, even more glorious than before. But I still can't give you an answer until I'm sure. ”
"Can't you comfort the heart of a homesick old man and say a few words to make me happy that our civilization still exists?" Ramon. Anthony asked with some dissatisfaction, but as soon as he finished speaking, he smiled bitterly: "Su, you are right, you must face it." Thank you, thank you for keeping it a secret from me for my sake and making me have some more happy times. "After that, Raymond. Anthony solemnly bowed deeply to Su Yichen and Luo Yan, and waited to raise his head. He said sorry to them and left the bridge directly.
"Is he alright?" Looking at Raymond. Anthony's back in the distance, Luo Yan asked.
Su Yichen shook his head silently, he didn't answer, and he didn't know that he shook his head on behalf of Raymond. Anthony will be fine, or does that mean he doesn't know? Wait for Raymond. After Anthony left, only the two of them were left on the bridge, and the Pioneer spaceship was still speeding away in the direction of the solar system under Su Wei's control.
When the Pioneer spacecraft approached the Oort Nebula in the outer solar system, Su Wei was already capable of scanning the interior of the solar system. In fact, with Su Wei's current ability, coupled with the original equipment of the Pioneer spacecraft, this work can be scanned at a distance of 10 light years from the galaxy, but the solar system is different from other small galaxies, and the scanning of the solar system is not so easy, and the reason is the Oort Nebula on its periphery.
Although the Oort Nebula is not as scary as the Red Dark Nebula, the two are somewhat similar in a sense. The entire solar system is surrounded by the Oort Nebula, which is in the middle of the nebula, and the entire Oort Nebula protects the solar system inside like the eggshell of an egg.
In this case, it is not easy to explore the solar system from outside the Oort Nebula, which is why the solar system, although it is located on the edge of the galaxy, has not been discovered by other cosmic civilizations. The huge Oort Nebula, coupled with the countless celestial bodies inside the nebula, is the natural protective layer of the solar system, and it is difficult for even the current Su Wei to explore it from the outside to the inside.
And now, Su Wei's exploration is just a preliminary exploration, and the main purpose is to determine the existence of the earth. For the solar system, the earth is one of its most important components, and it is precisely because of the existence of the earth that this inconspicuous small galaxy gave birth to life and became a member of the cosmic civilization.
After a period of exploration and feedback, Su Wei came to a conclusion that relieved the three people on the Pioneer spacecraft. According to the results of Su Wei's exploration, the earth still exists, and the distance between the earth and the sun, including the orbit and other positions, does not change much, not only the region, but also Venus, Mars, Mercury, Saturn...... and other major planets also exist, but the strange thing is that Su Wei did not explore the existence of Pluto, not only that, but even the space city that was originally near Pluto has disappeared, and the existence of any artificial celestial bodies has not been found near the earth.
This result made Su Yichen and the others look at each other again, they didn't know what was going on? Could it be that the civilization of the earth has really perished? Or is it gone? However, according to Su Wei's exploration conclusion, there is another indication, that is, the earth is still a living planet, and there are signs of life.
To figure it all out, you can't do it by scanning the periphery, you have to go into the inner solar system. Even go to Earth to figure it out. After thinking about it, Su Yichen decided to continue to accelerate and rush to the Oort Nebula as soon as possible, and then directly enter the interior of the solar system.
After some more time, the Pioneer spacecraft finally arrived in the Oort Nebula airspace, and shortly after entering the Oort Nebula, they broke away from the curvature voyage and switched to normal flight. Of course, with the current Vanguard spaceship and Su Wei's abilities. There was no need to do this at all, but for the sake of insurance, Su Yichen still took this way.
The huge Oort Nebula is filled with all kinds of different celestial bodies, asteroids, huge meteorites, comets, etc., this is an extremely quiet and lifeless area, this area is extremely vast, no matter that cosmic civilization comes here, it will only think that this space is no different from those very common airspace in the universe. They don't even know that in the center of this seemingly ordinary airspace, there is a small galaxy with life like the solar system.
"How long will it be before we actually enter the solar system?" Shortly after the spacecraft switched to normal flight status, Raymond. Anthony couldn't help but ask, looking at the three-dimensional scene.
Before that, Su Yichen told Raymond. Anthony Truth, this old guy's mood was temporarily depressed for a while, but it has to be said that his recovery was extremely fast, even unexpected. After just one day's sleep, Raymond. Anthony seemed to have forgotten all those things, and Raymond reappeared in front of them. Anthony is still the gentleman with that demeanor. As for the previous frustration and loss, they are all gone.
"Normally, it's about 12 days." Su Yichen calculated the time and replied.
12 days, this number is a very short number for three people who have gone through such a long time. What's more, they have already begun to enter the inner solar system, and everything will soon be revealed, and Raymond will get the answer. Anthony just nodded slightly, and didn't ask anything more.
Ten days passed, and the Pioneer spacecraft flew smoothly inside the Oort Nebula, and soon they would be able to fly out of the Oort Nebula. But at this moment, Su Wei suddenly issued a warning to them.
"What's the matter?"
"There's a celestial body that I've noticed is particularly strange." Su Wei's voice was very usual, with obvious surprise and incomprehension.
"Strange? How strange is it? Luo Yan asked.
"Mom, look, this is it!" The three-dimensional projection flashed, and soon an asteroid appeared in front of them, and this asteroid was still not a short distance away from the Pioneer spacecraft. It looked no different from other asteroids in the universe, and when they saw this asteroid, neither Su Yichen nor Luo Yan understood why Su Wei noticed this asteroid, and said that it was strange.
"Isn't it strange, an asteroid, isn't it everywhere in the Oort Nebula?" Ramon. Anthony also watched from the sidelines, and he found that there was nothing noteworthy about this asteroid at all, and he couldn't figure out what Su Wei said strangely.
"Its trajectory, pay attention to its trajectory!" Su Wei hurriedly replied, and at the same time showed the trajectory of the asteroid next to the three-dimensional projection. Anthony didn't react, but Su Yichen and his wife were shocked at the same time.
That's right! Su Wei was right, this asteroid was indeed too strange, and when they observed it, they didn't feel that it was strange, but when Su Wei showed its trajectory in the form of numbers, Su Yichen and his wife immediately understood what he meant by strange.
Whether it is in the Oort Nebula or in other airspace, all celestial bodies are moving according to certain laws, which may be the result of collisions and mutual attraction, but no matter which one, their inherent trajectory will not change much, which is the law of nature and a very simple scientific basis.
However, now the trajectory of this asteroid is completely different, according to the data and calculations shown by Su Wei, the trajectory of this asteroid is not in the Oort Nebula according to a certain law, but similar to the Pioneer spacecraft, its final trajectory is towards the interior of the solar system, that is, the region where the sun is located.
This is simply too strange, how can a natural object have such a trajectory? What's even more bizarre is that it is not visualized by the gravitational pull of other nearby celestial bodies during its orbit, as if it were not an asteroid, but a spaceship! A spacecraft that is heading towards the center of the solar system like the Pioneer spacecraft.
"Spaceship? How is this possible! It's an asteroid! Su Yichen was suddenly frightened by the thought that flashed through his mind, although this asteroid is called an asteroid, it is actually not small, it is simply a behemoth compared to the Pioneer spaceship, such a huge cosmic celestial body, how can it be a spaceship? It's impossible!
So, how did it have such a flight trajectory? As it flies towards the interior of the solar system, it will inevitably be attracted by the sun's huge gravitational pull, and the final result is only two. The first is that it cannot escape gravity, so it directly crashes into the sun or several major planets in the solar system. The second result is that it is gravitationally captured and finally revolves around the sun, becoming a new planetary ...... of the solar system.
"That's not right! New planets! ”
When this thought popped up, Su Yichen was stunned, a new planet? What does this mean? This means...... Imply....... Thinking of this, Su Yichen hurriedly took a few steps forward, staring at the three-dimensional projection with wide eyes, and at the same time asked Su Wei to try his best to magnify and clear the image of the asteroid.
"What's wrong?" Luo Yan saw that her husband's face had changed drastically, and asked anxiously.
"Wait...... Wait a minute....... Su Yichen didn't have time to answer Luo Yan's question at all, staring intently at the projection, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this asteroid was very familiar, and when the picture became clearer and clearer, Su Yichen finally determined that this asteroid had confirmed itself, and he was not mistaken.
"Our time coordinates are different from what we judged before." Su Yichen turned around and said to the two.
"Different? How is it different? Luo Yan was stunned and asked, Raymond. Anthony also gave a strange look.
"At first we judged that time was forward, like when we came back to Earth from the Andromeda Galaxy, but now I can be sure that our time coordinates are not forward."
"Not forward? Is it backwards? "Raymond. Anthony blurted out.
Su Yichen nodded silently: "That's right, backwards!" To be precise, we have traveled back in time, back in time. ”
"This ...... It can't be, right? You say we've traveled back in time? Now is not the future? Is it the past? How do you know for sure? That's impossible! No way! "Raymond. Anthony's face was full of incredulity with his mouth wide open, and even Luo Yan was extremely shocked, and they were also wondering why Su Yichen was so sure of this judgment. But soon, Su Yichen told them the answer, and the answer was very simple, the answer was the asteroid with a strange trajectory, because Su Yichen recognized it, it was the disappeared Pluto.
