Chapter 11: White

The entire Cassini station trembled violently, the tremor felt like a magnitude 6 earthquake, and the internal structure of the building emitted a piercing and sharp wail, as if there was a huge force pulling the Cassini station, Hu Donghai and Mo Yu couldn't stand still, and the two fell to the floor.

They couldn't control their bodies in the low gravity environment, but unfortunately there was nothing to grasp on the smooth floor, and Mo Yu couldn't fix herself, she hit her head on the floor, and then bounced up again, like falling on a trampoline, Hu Donghai hid under the table, stretched out his hand to grab Mo Yu's clothes, and pulled her hard.

More violent vibrations came, Hu Donghai and Mo Yu held their heads in their hands and shrank under the table, this time both of them heard the sound, the explosion came from outside, penetrating the soundproof outer wall, the movement was so loud that it was reminiscent of the explosion of an aerial bomb, but it was really like a hundreds of kilograms of aerial bomb exploded outside the door, the moment the huge energy was released, the air was sharply compressed, and then a shock wave was formed and spread out.

If an aerial bomb is detonated on the Titan, there is no doubt that the lethality is far greater than that on Earth.

There was another dull explosion, it sounded like the inexplicable bombing was still continuing, Mo Yu trembled with fright, she was very worried about whether the shell of Cassini Station could withstand the impact, after all, Cassini Station is not a bulletproof building, once the shell cracks and loses its airtightness, then the cold air from the outside will quickly invade, which will be a big trouble.

The lights on the walls flickered on and off in the vibrations, and the office was plunged into darkness.

The power is out.

"What's that?" Hu Donghai fumbled out his mobile phone from his arms and illuminated his face with the backlight of the screen.

"I don't know." Mo Yu leaned against the leg of the table, grabbed the desk with her hand to fix herself, her face was covered with sweat, and her hair was scattered, "I myself am also confused." ”

Mo Yu was indeed stunned, she just happened to pass by in front of Hu Donghai's office and went to the kitchen to find food, and when the first explosion sounded, she was chopping frozen ribs with a knife, and the ground shook with a knife.

Mo Yu held the knife for two seconds, and she realized what happened when the second explosion sounded, but she didn't know where the explosion happened, and subconsciously tacitly thought that it was a gas or battery explosion, so she hurriedly went back and called someone, because the fuel explosion was most likely about to cause a fire.

The office was silent, and after the power supply was cut off, all the equipment stopped working, and it was so dark that I couldn't see my fingers.

The two of them sat on the floor, the sound of breathing one after another, the explosion and the shaking had gradually subsided, and Mo Yu cautiously glanced at it, and the corridor outside the door was also dark, and it seemed that it was not only the office that had lost power.

"There won't be any more problems, will it?" Mo Yu held up his mobile phone to light it and came out from under the table, "It seems to be quiet outside." ”

The light of the mobile phone was also shaking in the corridor, the footsteps were from far and near, and Jiang Zi's loud voice arrived faster than others, "Silent Yu!" Director Hu! Are you all okay? ”

"We're in the office!" Mo Yu shouted.

A big stout creature slammed open the door, followed by a group of big guys, literally a pack of brown bears, with bright and blinding pillars of light above their heads, arms thicker than an adult's thighβ€”an out-of-cabin suit.

Jiang Ziliang Jing and their reactions were very fast, and they put on extravehicular suits as soon as they saw the explosion, and then went upstairs to search for Mo Yu and Hu Donghai. The tool room where the extravehicular activity clothes are placed is on the first floor, and Liang Jinglouqi has been guarding the black ball in the P3 laboratory, and rushed straight to the tool room after the explosion.

"Sister Moyu, are you okay?" Ya Xiang helped Mo Yu up, Liang Jing threw over a set of extravehicular clothes for her to wear, the current situation of Cassini Station is unknown, for the sake of insurance, everyone has to do a good job of protection, heavy extravehicular activity clothes can keep their body temperature in a low temperature environment of minus 180 degrees Celsius.

"No one was hurt, right? No one was hurt, right? Jiang Zi gasped as he assisted Mo Yu in putting on his extravehicular suit, "Who of you knows what the is going on?" ”

"You don't know what's going on?" Hu Donghai buckled his mask, and the light pillar of the headlamp swept around, "Where did it explode?" ”

"I don't know." Liang Jing said, "We were also very confused, a few minutes ago we were looking at the black ball in the laboratory downstairs, and the explosion was so sudden that it almost shattered the glass in the laboratory." ”

"Grandma, this is knowing that we are going to celebrate the New Year, let go of a few cannons to help the fun?" Jiang Zi bared his teeth, "Who the is setting off fireworks outside, don't let me know, otherwise I'm going to beat him so much that his grandmother doesn't even know him." ”

The emergency lights in the office suddenly turned on, everyone in the room looked up together, and the backup power system of Cassini Station was activated - the main source of power for Cassini Station is a miniature fusion reactor, the magnetic confinement circulator configuration, which is commonly known as the tokamak device, which was born more than 150 years ago, very old but very reliable, this fusion reactor on Titan has the most powerful magnetic field coil in the world.

The low temperature environment on Titan is extremely harsh for humans, but it is an advantage for the reactor, the ambient low temperature of minus 180 degrees makes the coil in a superconducting state, which can continue to provide more than 50T of steady-state super magnetic field, because the magnetic field is too strong, so the reactor volume can be made very small, and the diameter of the core plasma is only 1.5 meters.

Housed in a separate energy chamber, not far from the main station building, the reactor is under full supervision, and it has been operating safely for eight years without any failures.

The emergency backup power system in the Cassini station is even more reliable - the MB1000K-505 turbocharged diesel engine, with a power of more than 2,000 kilowatts, and its fellow uncles have been widely used in the Leopard series and Challenger series main battle tanks, produced by the German MTU Group, a century-old brand, quality assurance, this company also has a more well-known name, called Daimler Mercedes-Benz.

"Ladies and gentlemen, are you alright?" Dabai is finally online, and this artificial intelligence dropped the chain at a critical moment, "The Cassini station has just interrupted the power supply, and according to the self-test results, the power transmission link is interrupted. ”

"I'm sorry to talk to you."

"In short, it's the disconnection of the cables between the energy capsule and the main station." Dabai replied.

"What happened to the earthquake and the explosion?" Jiang Zi asked, "Do you know?" ”

"Unfortunately, I don't know where the explosion came from." Dabai replied, "But it is most likely from outside, there is no sign of explosion or fire in Cassini Station so far, and I suggest that you please keep your outdoor activity clothes in condition for the rest of the day until I have completed the inspection of the whole station, and now, please go to the main hall to rest." ”

"Cassini Station is going to be fine, right?" Hu Donghai asked.

"As it stands, only the communication system and the power system have been affected." Dabai said, "The director doesn't need to be too anxious, these are not problems that cannot be solved." ”

One by one, people left the director's office and walked through the corridor into the main hall, and at this time the personnel could not be dispersed, so Dabai suggested that they go to the main hall to rest until it was fully inspected.

The main hall was still as spacious and bright, only a few cups were shaken to the floor, Ya Xiang pushed open the door and fell on the sofa at once, letting out a sigh.

She was also terrified, as a little girl in her twenties, when had she experienced such a battle? Immediately stood in place, she said that Wan Kai pulled her under the table, and then found her an extravehicular suit.

"Sister Moyu, is it an alien bomber?" Yaxiang leaned against the window and asked sullenly.

Mo Yu sat beside her, smiling and shaking his head.

Although she didn't know what was going on, the alien bombers were just, and if the bombs exploded, where would Cassini Station survive?

"Isn't there a lake near us, maybe aliens are frying fish......" Yaxiang's voice slowly lowered, and she suddenly reached out and pulled Mo Yu, "Sister Mo Yu Sister Mo Yu." ”

"Huh?"

"Sister Moyu, Sister Moyu, look! Look! Yaxiang pointed out the window, almost exclaiming.

Mo Yu leaned over and held his breath.

Ya Xiang and Mo Yu also alarmed the others, and everyone gathered in front of the window, and then their eyes widened in unison.

"This ...... What's going on? Lou Qi asked after a while.

"Could it be a smoke bomb?" Jiang Zi said.

Their headlight pillars shot out of the observation window, but it was no longer pouring rain outside the window, and everyone's pupils reflected the tumbling white.
