Chapter 84: Oort Cloud
In the complex universe of space, there is a place that seems to be quite regular and beautiful, and people are amazed at the delicacy of the creation, that is, the home of the sun and its nine planets with different personalities, its inner layer is decorated with the silk edge of the asteroid belt, and the outer layer flutters with the crystal lace of the Kuiper belt, and the outer layer is farther away, which is a vast field, as if it can no longer feel the omnipotent gravitational pull of the sun, but it is as if it is like a cloud, which is the real frontier of the solar system: the Oort cloud.
In 1950, Dutch astronomer Jane Hendrik Oort pointed out that some comets entering the solar system came from ice clouds, which could be 100,000 times the distance from the Earth (100,000 AU), or a radius of 15 trillion kilometers, or about 1.5 light years, and this area of ice clouds was also named after Aort.
There are some explorations that are not destined to bear fruit quickly, but they can benefit future generations. For example, more than 200 years ago.
That is, on August 5, 2019, the then scientific and technological power set off with the Lightsail 2 spacecraft carrying the Oort Cloud Probe. Spent almost all the time dormant during the long voyage of more than 200 years, powered by lasers from the rear and rays from the sun and adjusting course! In the past 200 years, countless people have changed its course. Now I have finally crossed the Kuiper Belt and officially entered the area named Oort Cloud!
A series of equipment began to operate.
It sent back first-hand information about the Oort Cloud!
And they are in the hands of Mr. J, who is in charge of the development of the solar system, Kars, the chief scientist of his department, and the second scientist Zhixin, who are nervously receiving data, analyzing, calculating, speculating, and discussing, and everyone is eager to treat 1 minute as 2 minutes, after all, this is a gift that the entire human race has been waiting for for more than 200 years!
Whether it's an adult or a child, who doesn't want to quickly remove the gift wrap and see what's inside? Each of them feels extremely lucky that they are unwrapping gifts for all mankind! And no matter what the gift is, they are the first to know!
Since Jupiter's orbit will obscure the information transmission channel for a period of time, in order to save energy, the probe is chosen to sleep again.
Zhixin and Kars suddenly glanced at each other, and then ran to a small room and began a fierce quarrel.
Their action frightened everyone present, including Mr. J, although he urged the others not to stop, not to be distracted, not to be disturbed, and to complete the task as soon as possible. But Mr. J's own eyes saw a figure behind the shutters through the wide glass walls of the small room. The body movements are very large, and the lights flicker on and off as the movements make the lights flicker and flicker, and most people will probably think that it is some kind of performance art performance.
Suddenly, the light and shade changes are gone! It's just like an empty room that forgot to turn off the lights, and the bright ones seem to be empty over there!
The door opened, and both Kars and Zhixin glared at Mr. J with extremely angry and resentful expressions.
Why are you arguing and glaring at me? Mr. J really doesn't know how to face this scene! The room was silent.
Then these two people looked left and right very tacitly, and they were very careful not to be noticed by others, and gently walked to Mr. J's side as if they were afraid of disturbing the surroundings, and they both walked very carefully, trying not to make footsteps! They looked left and right again, and then almost kidnapped, one left and one right, set up Mr. J and went into the hut just now! But the identities of the two of them, their every move, the people around them have been paying attention for a long time! It's just that Mr. J urges me to do what I do, but everyone is watching their situation like a radar!
As Mr. J left, everyone stopped as the door to the hut closed again. They all stood up and looked at the wall that was once again performance art! Everyone wanted to come up and hear what they were saying, but they were afraid that the door would suddenly open and they wouldn't be able to get back to their seats in time. Everyone stood on tiptoe and wondered, staring at what their incomprehensible gestures were.
The room was suddenly calm and bright! Everyone knew the door was open! Hurry back to your seat, open and close the folder, open and close, oh so busy!
The moment the door was opened, Mr. J's voice came out a little, "... Urgency! ”
As soon as Mr. J saw the door open, he swept every seat with his eyes with a smile on his face, while Zhixin and Kars didn't care about him at all, they looked left and right, whispered a few words to each other, and then stopped suddenly! I looked left and right, and whispered a few words in each other's ears! And just walked away.
Mr. J's smile widened, almost every inch of the smile needed to the maximum, and then he seemed to shake his hands very easily, and said to everyone: "Heha, heha, it's not a big deal, I'll leave for a while, and I'm not allowed to leave until it's done!" I'll be back soon! ”
Everyone was so busy, the folder was opened and closed, and no one looked up at Mr. J. Mr. J first took a few steps back, and when he saw that they were too busy to raise their heads, he turned around and chased after Kars and Zhixin with satisfaction.
"Did he just think hehe, or did he want to haha. Heh, what the hell is heha? One of the female scientists whispered.
"Maybe there's something important about making a secret that wants to pretend to be calm and hide it from us?" The male scientist next to him leaned up and said.
"I just heard half a sentence about what happened! Is it a state of emergency? An older gentleman wondered.
"Don't be alarmist, if there is an emergency, shouldn't we be the first to tell us, and then think about it together? And what state of emergency can the Oort cloud detect? A beautiful scientist with a flamboyant flower said.
"Well, what the lazy little Gao said makes sense! Although she is lazy, her intuition is still quite good! An aunt (^o^) next to him~ echoed.
"My name is Gao Lanlan! Not lazy! Gao Gao Lanlan! Gao Gao Lanlan angrily corrected.
"Cut! Although I admit that I am worse than the two of them, but I don't believe it, what they can see, I can't see!? Another, slightly older scientist with glasses looked at the information unconvinced.
"Xu Lei! You really don't overestimate yourself, what the two of them see, maybe you won't be able to see it for half a year! Kars, I don't know, I've seen it! I used to work with Mr. M, and once I got a bunch of scrapped instruments to go to the Yangtze River, and I checked and found nothing. As a result, Linde and Zhixin 。。。。。 A man in an engineering uniform turned his chair and was about to tell the story of how he had witnessed Linde and Zhixin miraculously inspect a pile of scrapped equipment.
"Cocoa... A chubby scientist, sweating profusely, interrupted the engineer's speech.
"You're fat enough to drink cocoa, huh? You're sweating so much! Xu Lei said.
PS: August 5, 2019 Guangfan 2 This is all true, but I don't know what he brought to do, pretending to explore the Oort cloud. Take a look at the latest chapter of "Codename Taoyuan Claw Book House" to read for free for the first time.
