Chapter 647: Frozen Star
Frozen stars are very far away, 4 billion kilometers away from the orbit of the star, receive little stellar light, are very cold, and the universe is full of ice and snow.
Not only is the distance long, it is not easy to reach the frozen star, first of all, you have to pass through a dense meteorite belt with a width of more than 50 million kilometers, in this meteorite belt, some places are full of meteorites, dense, and some places have a small number of meteorites, because the structure of the universe is three-dimensional, even if the meteorite belt exists, it is impossible to spread throughout the entire spherical space.
In order to reach the frozen star, Yang Hongguang and the driving crew chose a route to bypass the dense meteorite belt, the density of meteorites on this route is low, but it has to travel an additional distance of 300 million kilometers, so that the time required for the Moonlight to fly to the frozen star has increased to about eleven days.
Of course Tianming wants to hurry, but there are too many meteorites in the meteorite belt, if you pass through the meteorite belt, the speed of the Moonlight must not be too fast, once it is hit by a meteorite, even if it is protected by a protective shield, but the huge impact force will still be partially acting on the Moonlight, which is very dangerous, and the delay is more, it is better to take a detour.
During the eleven long interstellar voyage, Tianming's family members brought to the Moonlight finally calmed down and showed a strong interest in the deep universe outside the spaceship.
Moreover, as the distance from the stars is getting farther and farther away, the temperature in the deep space of the universe has dropped a lot, not to mention, the sunlight is getting dimmer and dimmer, and the spectrum appears as a sunset-like yellow, which is slightly desolate.
However, the stars that can be seen in this area are brighter, clearer, and more beautiful than in the area close to the stars, just as the starry sky seen in the dark is more beautiful than the starry sky seen in the daytime.
"Wow, there's a meteor shower in that place!" Li Yuhan, who was standing on the top of the glass of the bridge and holding a small portable telescope in his hand, suddenly shouted.
"Uncle, look at it. Where are the meteor showers! Li Yuhan shouted towards Tianming.
"Meteor showers? Where are there meteor showers in space? "Tianming knows that the reason for the meteor shower is that the comet meets the planet's atmosphere, and a large number of meteorites and the atmosphere are rubbed and burned, which can only occur in planets with atmospheres, how can it happen in the universe?
"There really is! Uncle, come and see, it's in that place! ”
Li Yuhan shouted twice, and Tianming appeared on the observation platform with a teleportation, took out a telescope from the ability space, and looked at the place where Li Yuhan pointed out.
"Uncle. Right there, did you see that? ”
Tianming began to adjust his position, and finally, in a pale green nebula, he saw countless long streams of light, red, purple, blue, and green...... Thousands of purples and thousands of reds, sure enough, it is a meteor shower.
This kind of meteor shower is probably inside the nebula, and the planet exploded, right? Tianming thought to himself.
Suddenly. A hot and moist sensation came from the face, followed by a faint scent that also burrowed into the nose...... The smell of Li Yuhan's hair.
This Niko...... Secretly kissed himself.
"Yuhan, can you not be like this all the time. If Xiaolan sees it, I guess you will be spanked again. ”
Li Yuhan blinked, blushed and said, "Uncle, I just made a wish to be with you to Meteor Shower." The meteor shower said that we will definitely be together! ”
Tianming sighed: "Yuhan, it's unlikely between us. I already have Xinyi and Xiaolan, and if I want Xiaolan, I will fight with me, and besides, you are still young, it's not easy to find a man who is better than my uncle? Don't hang yourself on my crooked-necked tree. ”
Tianming didn't know how many times she had said this to Li Yuhan, but she followed him very stubbornly, and Tianming even found that in order to reflect the role of staying by his side, in private, Li Yuhan secretly bought a lot of books to gnaw, including finance and accounting, as well as culture and music, one to help Tianming, and the other to teach a few little guys in a small space extracurricular knowledge...... But Li Yuhan is what kind of person she likes to read, but in order to reflect her own value, she didn't like to do these things, so she made up her mind to do them.
Not only that, but my mother Liu Hongcai secretly found Tianming several times, and when she talked about Li Yuhan, she even revealed that she wanted her to enter Xu's house, which surprised Tianming, when did Li Yuhan, the girl, get her mother done. Moreover, Chong Chong Chengcheng and several little guys also like her very much, and often call her "third aunt...... This emotional intelligence is really unimaginable.
Even Meng Xinyi often said in his ear: Yuhan's little girl is more difficult than Xiaolan, and it is estimated that she will have another little sister in the future.
"Nope! Uncle, you saved my life, I must marry you! Even if...... Even if it's a junior! Li Yuhan straightened his chest and said confidently.
"Well, you've beaten me." Tianming raised his hands in surrender, while Li Yuhan grinned, wrapped his arms around Tianming's waist, and rubbed his head on his chest.
……
During the eleven days of sailing, because of the strong interest in deep space, the family members took the rune telescope to look at it, but the space observed by the trumpet telescope was not very clear, it was not very enjoyable, and sometimes I found something interesting, no matter how to adjust the focus, I could only see a vague outline.
After hearing that the rune space mirror could see any star within a hundred light years, Liu Lu and Lan Meng paid attention to the rune space mirror controlled by astronomical experts...... So those astronomers began to be depressed, Tianming's family was always robbing them of their business, and some astronomical phenomena with heavy significance could not be seen, but Liu Lu and the others had a strong interest in some strange planets.
So, these days, Liu Lu has discovered a diamond planet; Blue Dream discovers a blue planet with a catalog full of seawater; Lan Luo discovered a special planet, which seemed to have a silicon-based creature, and the civilization was quite high; Meng Xinyi discovered a planet with many colorful craters in the star catalog, until one day, she saw a large number of wriggling insects gushing out of the countless regularly arranged craters of this planet, and she couldn't eat for three days when she was nauseous - this planet is a bit like the so-called Zerg planet.
All kinds of strange discoveries are made one after another, some of which have not even been discovered by those astronomical experts, which arouses great interest among astronomical experts...... An astronomical expert even immediately went back to study it. Revising his previous conclusion: "Some barren planets that do not have the conditions for life to be born have life, which shows that the complexity of life in this galaxy is far beyond our imagination...... Therefore, the probability of the birth of intelligent life in this galaxy system is about 1 in 30,000, which is 3-4 times that of the last calculation. ”
……
Moonlight circumnavigated the meteorite belt, accelerated its flight, and finally reached the last target planet, the Frozen Star...... The temperature in this area of space is extremely low, and there are countless frozen meteorites floating in space in some areas.
In astronomy, the interstellar space about 3 billion AU away from the Sun is called the "Kuiper Belt", which contains a large number of rings of debris and debris composed of ice, and the mass and density of celestial bodies in this zone are relatively low. Those with diameters of more than 50 km are rare.
However, the Frozen Star coming from the Moonlight Star Cruise is not in the Kuiper Belt - it is only about 4 billion kilometers away from the star. But the Frozen Star is very special, its diameter is about 6,000 kilometers, but 99% of the composition is the crystalline state of water - ice, that is, Tianming came to a planet composed of almost all ice.
Wen Jichu said to Tianming: "Regarding this frozen star, our astronomical experts also discovered it by accident, and I was very surprised at that time. Because in the solar system on the other side of the earth, in orbit around 4 billion kilometers, there are very few celestial bodies with higher mass and diameter, because of this region. There are relatively few asteroids and meteorites in zài, and there is no environment for the formation of large celestial bodies...... The same is true for this galaxy, where there are not many celestial bodies and meteorites in this region......"
"Still. The star of this star system is not the same as the sun of the solar system, it is about 2.5 times larger. We also don't know how this galaxy is made? However, our inference is that the frozen star should have been flung into this orbit by the frozen meteorites on the periphery of the meteorite belt. ”
"It doesn't matter how it's formed, as long as it has the water I want on it."
A small spaceship flew towards the frozen star, and it took several abilities to shuttle, and soon appeared on the surface of the frozen planet.
It's a world made up almost entirely of ice, with a smooth surface, like a lot of glass mirrors stacked on top of each other, with a small coefficient of friction that makes it easy for your feet to slip when you step on it.
The frozen planet, with a diameter of 6,000 kilometers, has 10 billion cubic kilometers of icy water, with a total water content of about 100 billion tons, and if it all melts, it can almost fill the ocean of Blue Mercury.
So much ice, if all brought to the red giant, when melted, could almost turn the red giant into a second blue mercury.
Tianming's purpose in coming to the Frozen Star was naturally to get water.
Tianming's consideration for doing this is mainly for two reasons: one is to speed up the transformation of the red giant, shortening the pumping work that originally took 13 years to complete to be completed immediately; The second is for the ecological environment of Blue Mercury, because some experts have observed that after the reduction of Blue Mercury's seawater, the frequency of submarine earthquakes has increased a lot, the earth's crust is not very stable, and some marine organisms are abnormally extinct...... This is all due to the massive reduction of seawater.
And even if the land area of Blue Mercury increases to 50 or 60 million square kilometers, and the marine environment is destroyed on a large scale, the benefits will still outweigh the disadvantages for the future development of Blue Mercury...... At this time, the Astronomical Observatory happened to discover the frozen star.
For example, today's Ming supernatural space is only 5 million cubic kilometers, which cannot accommodate the huge frozen star under your feet, but in Tianming's supernatural space, there is a four-dimensional space of about 500 cubic meters, but the compression of three-dimensional space and four-dimensional space is about 800 million:1, and the four-dimensional space of 500 cubic meters is equivalent to the volume of 40 billion cubic kilometers, which is enough to accommodate four frozen planets.
Tianming did not waste time, and began to extend the ability space, first digging an incomparably huge ice hole on the frozen planet, obtaining an ice bar with a volume of 1 million cubic kilometers, storing the ice bar in the zài four-dimensional space, and then the next one...... This continued for tens of thousands of times, until the consciousness was exhausted, and the frozen planet finally disappeared completely...... Nearly 100 billion tons of ice are stored in Tianming's ability space.
The divine sense was exhausted, and although Tianming felt a little tired, he still breathed a sigh of relief: "So much ice, not to mention the transformation of one red giant, it is enough to transform ten, after bringing these ices back, the transformation of the red giant star is estimated to be completed soon." ”
Back on the Moonlight, Tianming gave the order to return.
