A C-130 Hercules transport plane takes off from the United States Air Base.

However, this transport plane is modified, and it is equipped with the strongest laser weapon in the United States, which can attack satellites in Earth orbit at an altitude of 10,000 meters.

Sounds awesome, but it's not.

The direction of research in the laser weapons of the United States is chemical laser weapons.

Of course, they also have research on solid-state laser weapons, but the results are not ideal, and there is a big gap with our country.

How big the gap is, not much, decades of difference.

In the field of solid-state lasers, we are definitely the boss.

The LW-30 laser defense weapon that we have mass-produced and installed is three times more powerful than the HEL-MD laser combat vehicle that has not yet been put into production in the United States.

The mass-produced type is stronger than the experimental type, let alone the secrecy level.

But at present, the laser weapon carried by this C-130, although it is also an experimental type, has a power of 60 megawatts.

Overall, it's okay.

Soon, this Hercules flew to an altitude of 10,000 meters.

"The satellite data link is connected."

"The orbit of the enemy satellite has been calculated."

"The laser weapon is warmed up and ready to be fired."

The personnel inside Hercules, operating the equipment, quickly completed the preparations before the attack.

"Attack."

"Confirm the attack order."

A red light shot out from Hercules' loaded laser cannon, shooting straight towards outer space.

Then there was no Hercules, and the ground command center began to determine the effect of the attack.

One-minute, two-minute, five-minute ......

Ten minutes later, after three rounds of confirmation, they had determined that the attack was ineffective.

The satellite they listed as a target still orbited the Earth without any change in orbit.

"Didn't hit? Recalculate the angle of laser emission? Is it a calculation error. ”

"Report to the commander, there are no problems with the angle of launch of the laser weapon."

"Then why didn't the target disappear?"

“……”

Ten minutes later, the laser weapon was fired again.

And then......

Should it be useless or useless, the satellites are still there.

Boeing's engineers have green faces, this is not right, 60 megawatts of laser weapons, it is not very simple to hit satellites.

What went wrong?

It's a pity that no one cares what he thinks at this time, and the United States has to make amends.

It's a bit of a shame this time.

The most accurate laser weapons were used, but they didn't even hurt the hair of the opponent's satellite.

As for why laser weapons do not work, they are also not clear, after all, satellites are too far from the Earth, and the targets are too small.

You want to observe, and it's not so easy to observe.

Not to mention, the attack of the laser weapon is just a moment, and it can't be caught at all.

So it's hard to know why.

But it doesn't matter, the bottom of the rice country is thick, and the laser weapon is not easy to use, so change to missiles.

The product of the Star Wars program that year, the 'Asat' ASM-135 anti-satellite missile, was turned out.

However, it should not be called ASM-135 now, it should be called ASM-935, and the technology has been updated many times.

Designed theoretically, the ASM-935 can attack any satellite within 50,000 kilometers of Earth orbit, fly at speeds up to Mach 50, and have satellite, laser, and miniature radar triple guidance.

Sounds awesome.

In fact, when a Super Hornet launched it, countries around the world were monitoring it.

It flew out of the atmosphere, and its speed soared again.

It came to an orbit of 30,000 kilometers, leaving only 6,000 kilometers from the satellite.

It locks onto the satellite for the final acceleration.

The whole world is watching, this is the hope of the whole village of the country, it represents the face of the country.

And then......

It successfully flew into space with a satellite.

That's right, this anti-satellite missile was dodged by the satellite.

When the two sides were 1 kilometer apart, the satellite's Hall engine suddenly started and flashed to the left.

successfully avoided the big move of the rice country.

In the command center, looking at the signal screen of missiles flying farther and farther on the big screen, the scene was very embarrassing for a while.

But soon, NASA gave the news.

It's not that our missiles are not powerful, but that people's satellite belts have flashed.

At the last minute, the satellite moved sideways and dodged the missile attack.

What can you do about this?

After a moment of silence, everyone began to think of a way.

What to do?

Whether to continue launching anti-satellite missile attacks, or to stop the operation.

You have anti-satellite missiles.

They have anti-anti-satellite missile satellites.

How to play this.

The command side is lost in thought, and NASA realizes that something is wrong.

"Huh...... What's over there? ”

"What?"

"Adjust the direction of observation, this ...... Yes, you see. ”

"This is a meteorite?"

"It's too blurry to see."

A group of NASA staff found that there seemed to be an extra thing in space, but the observation system they are using now is the observation system of satellites, which is to observe the earth, not specifically to observe the universe, so the data is not clear.

Soon, they approached the director, the blurry photo, and asked for permission to use Hubble.

Ten minutes later, everyone in the NASA monitoring hall was dumbfounded.

Through Hubble's clear perspective, they saw an asteroid with a diameter of 3.5 kilometers heading towards Earth.

"Quick, calculate the orbit of this asteroid."

After half a ring, a group of people immediately went into action.

As elites, they are still very powerful, and they quickly calculated the orbit of the asteroid.

Well, the orbit is very positive, straight towards the Earth.

If nothing else had intervened, the asteroid would have crashed into the vast Pacific Ocean.

Through supercomputer simulation, if the asteroid does not disintegrate and hits the Pacific Ocean directly, the tsunami that will cause the earth's plate shaking and volcanic eruption can basically wipe out all mankind.

As soon as the results came out, NASA contacted the authorities.

The official side is still having a headache about how to solve the satellite problem, but the satellite problem has not yet been studied, and the problem of asteroids has appeared again.

An asteroid of the annihilation class.

"Okay, let's put aside the issue of satellites for a while, and I want to see the latest news from NASA."

After reading it, a group of people were stunned.

"It's not a joke, if it weren't for the fact that we carried out our plan to attack the satellite today, we probably wouldn't have discovered it.

According to NASA calculations, there are still 16 days and 8 hours left before the asteroid hits Earth.

And don't expect the Earth's gravity to shatter this asteroid, according to its appearance and spin analysis, this asteroid has an 85% chance of being an iron asteroid.

Now that everyone is talking freely, is there anything you can do? ”

An iron asteroid with a diameter of 3.5 kilometers, an asteroid nuclear bomb of this level is useless.

At this time, a person suddenly said: "We need the best team of drillers in the world, send them to the asteroid with the space shuttle of China, and then burrow in the asteroid, plant a nuclear bomb and detonate it." ”
