Chapter 319: Unknown Space Ice Crystal Element
A few days ago, Cangyu Triangle flew to the Long Eggplant system in a starship to find the fabled exile's home.
The Chang Eggplant Galaxy is about 70,000 light-years long and 30,000 light-years wide, with more than 50 billion large and small stars, planets and countless other celestial bodies.
It is not an easy task to find an inconspicuous planet in the vast sea of stars.
In the Star Merchant Marauder ship's star map navigation, the location of the Great Wilderness Star is not marked.
The Cangyu triangle should be judged by the approximate position, and the target planet should be searched and identified by the naked eye.
……
A few hours ago, they flew to a relatively dense star field, with more than a dozen star systems on the left and right of the scheduled route, all of which were only a dozen light-years away.
According to the rules of interstellar flight, if you are flying at a speed higher than the fourth cosmic speed, you should try to keep a moderate distance from all star systems, and you should not shuttle back and forth from any star system with its own orbit closed unless it is an emergency.
In other words, when flying at high speed between the stars, you should not borrow a road from within the star system, but try to go around from outside the star system and keep a sufficient safe distance.
Otherwise, it will have various effects on the celestial bodies in the star system, and in serious cases, it will cause the celestial bodies to change their orbits and cause disasters.
Of course, it is rare for the average person to deliberately travel through the galaxy because of the waste fuel.
Morning Throwing Fei heard this interjection: "I see, every closed galaxy is like a pit; It's like driving a car, there is a big pit on the ground, you must walk around the edge of the pit, you can't drive into the pit and then drive up.
"If you drive at a speed of more than four gears, you can't plunge into the pit~."
Qin Guan nodded: "This metaphor is very vivid, but during interstellar flight, if you are too close to the celestial body, the celestial body and the spacecraft will affect each other; Driving into the pit basically only hurts the car, not the pit. ”
"No, it will hurt the crater, and the pit will leave car marks, leaving traces of force, and if it is replaced by a galaxy, it will affect the gravitational balance in the galaxy."
"Indeed, it makes sense."
Imagine what a terrible catastrophic impact it would have if a spaceship flew close to a blue planet or Earth at the speed of the fourth universe......
……
Cangyu: "You're all right. ”
After Qin Guan and the others understood these basic questions, he continued:
"The spacecraft's autopilot system automatically calculates the optimal course based on the gravitational formula.
"The distance to be maintained in a rated light-year is proportional to the weight and size of the spacecraft or starship, and to the total mass and diameter range of the star system.
"There are more than a dozen star systems up and down our established route, which are very dense, and in order to avoid the star systems in different directions and save energy crystals, we were carried by the automatic navigation system through a belt of ice crystals left by the wake of comets."
"I didn't expect interstellar navigation to be the same?" Morning throwing fly complaint.
Cangyu: "The flight speed is relatively fast, the ice crystal belt is sparse and wide, and the pilot system thinks that this will not pose much of a threat, and we have not had time to see it clearly, and we have already flown into the ice crystal belt." ”
Chen Throwing Fei: "Oh, I understand, it's like driving a car, there are many pits on the front and back along the way, left and right, in order to avoid the pits, go around and around, and inevitably run over puddles or something." ”
Cangyu: "The ice crystal belt was covered with fine or huge ice crystals, and we piloted the spacecraft semi-manually, dodged very carefully, did not hit the large ice crystals, and flew out of that space smoothly. ”
Qin Guan and the others listened and breathed a sigh of relief for Cang Yu.
Isn't that nice?
I thought the spaceship crashed into a comet or a huge ice-floating meteorite and was destroyed.
"But." "But the strange thing is that just after passing through that ice crystal belt, all parts of the spacecraft have reported damage alarms.
"We didn't know what was going on, so we slowed down and decided to make a crash landing on a nearby rocky planet.
"After landing and coming to a standstill, we inspected the ship, only to find that almost all the metal parts of the spaceship were corroded by an unknown substance from the inside out, and they were rapidly disintegrating at a visible speed.
"We watched as the entire ship disintegrated, and the metal parts were all reduced to slag and powder!"
Cang Yu said it again with palpitations.
"Originally, when we were in space, the rate of corrosion was relatively slow, but after landing on a planet, the rate of corrosion increased several times due to the increase in temperature.
"We wanted to repair the ship, but before we could find out why, it was already in pieces."
The obtuse horn pointed at himself: "Even the battle armor on our bodies has become like this......"
Qin Guan looked at the battle armor on Cang Yu's body, all of which were corroded and mottled and broken, covered with irregularly sized holes.
They had actually noticed it a long time ago, but they didn't ask directly, thinking that they had been injured in the battle.
I didn't expect this to be the reason.
Qin Guan was thoughtful.
"You mean, you passed through a belt of ice crystals?"
"Yes."
"After flying over, the spaceship is corroded, and after the forced landing, the spaceship disintegrates and becomes debris?"
"Yes."
Qin Guan turned his head to the east gate and said, "Quick, help me get a few worthless metal weapons and broken armor from the treasury." ”
"Okay." The east gate Youfu replied and ran to the thatched hut warehouse not far away.
Qin Guan said to Xue Weiyi and Tibetan Bow again: "Put away all your precious weapons, don't take them out casually for the time being, beware of corrosion, and when you encounter them, eighty percent of them are still stained with a lot of 'poisonous gas' that can corrode metal." ”
Xue Weiyi was frightened, and immediately jumped two steps after reflexing, and the Tibetan bow also took half a step back.
Qin Guan: "......"
"That's too much of a reaction, aren't all your weapons in storage?"
Xue Weiyi scratched his head and smiled: "My master's weapons and I are all tailor-made, and they are made by the refiners of the inner world, in case they are damaged, it will be more troublesome to repair, and it will take at least a few days to delay." ”
Cang Yu looked innocent, but he looked down at the tattered armor on his body, which was still corroding at a speed visible to the naked eye, so he felt that what Qin Guan said made a lot of sense.
Qin Guan only felt that his mind was a little better than before, and his ability to judge, analyze and speculate had also improved a lot.
He stared at the broken armor on Cang Yu's body and said, "The ice crystal belt must contain a large number of elements that corrode metal, and they are very powerful elements.
"When you're in space, the temperature is very low, and the corrosion effect is not strong, but the fine ice chips and debris must have adhered to the surface of the ship, and it has been covered in a full layer, and even swept into the engines, turbines, and infiltrated many cabins.
"Most of the ship's cabins are not completely sealed.
(The Buljinavi and Hornbone Clans are not the same as humans, they do not need airtight cabins and artificial oxygen environments during interstellar flight, and the Immortals and above can even fly in open-top spaceships.) They don't have to be measured by human astronautical standards. )
"Then, as you crash-land on a nearby planet, the temperature rises, the ice crystals vaporize, and corrosion accelerates, and some of that gas inevitably enters the ship with the current.
"After landing, the elemental activity increased by at least several times, and it quickly corroded through the entire spaceship.
"It's an armor-piercing element!"
Xue Weiyi was surprised: "There is such a strong gas? ”
