Chapter 82: Change
The speed of the Transwarp Company is still very fast, but the day after the results come out, the Transwarp Company sent the required thrusters, this is still not the final version, the final version should have remote control capabilities and appropriate propulsion directions. Five oversized thrusters were transported directly to the Guardian, where further modifications awaited.
The five giant thrusters have been arranged into the laboratory, and all the people are already in place, waiting for them will be Liu Xuan and other engineers to make drastic changes. Liu Xuan and many researchers have been studying the drawings overnight.
The transformation is about to begin, five days, the last day is a collision, they only have one day to transform, five thrusters, not to mention anything else, the researchers of the entire guardian are also a little difficult, but this is the only time left, and now Liu Xuancai is a little aware that there is a slight mistake in the calculation of his own way.
But it's useless to say anything now, the most important thing is to complete the transformation work on time, and then carry out the next step of air arrangement, push some eligible asteroids to the designated location, and choose those asteroids is not their business, these will be calculated and marked by people on the earth, Liu Xuan and these people just need to complete the transformation on time.
Liu Xuan's four people, plus the forty-eight people of the guardian number, a total of fifty people, ten people are responsible for one, one day. In fact, these two things are difficult to say, and they are not as difficult to do as imagined. The thruster's remote control system is a component that can be installed as long as it is installed. Another modification is to make the previous grip modification.
To put it simply, Liu Xuan's plan is to install a grip system on the thruster, the grip system is to tightly grasp the asteroid and push the asteroid to the right position, in order to ensure that the asteroid does not break away from the thruster, this is necessary, but it is not necessary, as long as the direction of the thrust is calculated, there is no grip system is actually the same. However, just in case, the grip system must be installed.
These two systems actually have components, that is to say, 50 of them only need to install these in a day, if you really calculate, in fact, the time of the day is still stable, and at the same time, there is no need to work overtime and so on.
All this is actually the same as Liu Xuan expected, it only took eighteen hours, the five thrusters have been transformed, and the rest is to test it. Liu Xuan's four people are also liberated, leaving the laboratory, taking off their protective clothing, their three companions have already gone to rest, Liu Xuan has other tasks, that is, to debug the remote control components on the supercomputer. This is not his achievement, and he doesn't know the principle, only how to use it.
The supercomputer was in Ringer's command room, not in the most important control room on the third floor, but only on the first floor. Of course, if Ringer wanted to, he was completely capable of terminating all of Liu Xuan's operations, and his third-level owner had the supreme authority of the Guardian Number.
Ringer was not in the command room at this time, after all, he was the commander of the whole team, and the purpose of the Guardian's existence was not only to facilitate Liu Xuan's research, but also to protect the safety of the earth. Commander Ringer may have gone somewhere else to inspect. Of course, it is impossible to open the third layer when he is away, and only Ringer has the authority to open the entire Guardian.
Liu Xuan's computer operation is still very proficient, and he calculated it directly against the projection keyboard in the sky, the five remote control devices are all online, Liu Xuan input according to the established instructions, and the five thrusters are all online, Liu Xuan just turned off the control device after a simple test. All this is ready, all that remains is to prepare to control these thrusters to get the asteroid into the predetermined place and block the starfall.
Everything was ready, and at night, Ringer, as the commander, pressed the launch button, and five huge rockets flew into deep space, aiming for the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, and the selected asteroids were already marked with numbers, 1 to 5, and the positions were already marked on the computer. All that's left is for the thrusters to be in place.
Time passed quickly, three days passed in a flash, only the last day was left, the thrusters were already in place, the propulsion system had stopped and began to wait for the five asteroids to be prepared in the predetermined place.
All of this is linked to the system on the Guardian, Liu Xuan and the others are already ready to capture the five asteroids, according to calculations, the five asteroids will orbit close to the starfall on this last day. The role of the five thrusters is to anchor the five asteroids to the meteorfall's course. To be precise, not to have the thrusters push the five asteroids into the orbit of the starfall, but to counteract the force of their rotation.
Now is the time to prepare for the mobilization of these thrusters, because they are deployed on the Martian side, and the Mars rover has also shifted the camera, ready for the start of the operation.
This operation is also called "Starfall", which is aimed at Starfall weapons from alien civilizations.
The five thrusters were under the control of the five people included, and the thrusters were restarted, blocking the established course of the five asteroids, of course, there was no Qin Ming among these five people, after all, they were not very good at this, in order to ensure the success of the plan, all this could only be done by professional personnel.
Liu Xuan's five people controlled five of them respectively, and docked in the channel that the computer had already calculated, these five thrusters looked the same on the outside, but the inside was different, because the size of these five asteroids was too different, and the largest asteroid must be stabilized with a high-power thruster, that is, the No. 1 asteroid, and the No. 1 thruster was controlled by Liu Xuan.
The time of the five asteroids is also different, the first to come is the second asteroid, the second thruster is also in place for a long time, according to the established plan, directly in front of the thruster popped up a large number of grippers, the thruster firmly fixed itself on the asteroid, and then the thruster began to maximize the power output, a little bit to offset the power of the revolution, slowly the second asteroid tends to be stationary, and then a little bit adjust the position of the second asteroid, fixed it on the path of the starfall.
Finally, the No. 2 thruster has completed its task, as long as it stabilizes the power. The controller of the No. 2 thruster also breathed a sigh of relief and stretched out his thumb to Liu Xuan, which means that he has succeeded in the first step.
Next is the most important asteroid, which is the No. 1 asteroid that Liu Xuan needs to capture, and the volume is even the sum of the No. 3 asteroid and the No. 4 asteroid, and the No. 1 thruster is also very powerful.
Still according to the established plan, the asteroid was firmly grasped, and the power of the thruster was released, but the power of the asteroid's revolution was too great, and even the maximum power offset the power of the revolution was very slow.
However, finally, in the end, the asteroid No. 1 gradually formed a static state for the time being, although it had already crossed the forward orbit of the starfall at this time, but the nuclear fuel of the thruster was very well prepared, as long as the asteroid was pushed back. This time it took twice as long as the No. 2 thruster, but it was finally able to fix Asteroid No. 1 in its intended position without any danger.
Liu Xuan took his gaze and hands back from the console, wiped the sweat with the back of his hand, raised his head, smiled at everyone, and cocked his thumb.
Next up is Asteroid No. 4, the smallest of which is the easiest to capture.
Asteroid No. 5 is also not too thrilling, and it is firmly in place.
At this time, asteroids No. 1, No. 2, No. 4, and No. 5 are already in place, and their four determined straight lines extend towards the outer solar system, and they will pass through the starfall. This is the calculated trajectory of the starfall in the solar system.
In the end, only asteroid No. 3 remained, which was also the last asteroid to arrive, and the No. 3 thruster was also in place early. On the observation video of the Mars probe, the No. 3 asteroid has already been orbited, and the supercomputer is also very humane to color the No. 3 asteroid and the No. 3 thruster, and the eye-catching red and yellow are so obvious on the video.
However, something happened suddenly, and you must know that the asteroid belt itself is not a peaceful place, and it is possible that the asteroids will collide with each other at any time. The three asteroids selected this time are all relatively stable asteroids and will hardly collide with other asteroids.
This is also due to their large size, and the long orbit also drives out other smaller asteroids in their orbit, which is why they are not easy to collide with other asteroids.
But this time, asteroid No. 3 has a problem.
This is not its own problem, but next to it, two asteroids collided together, and the instantaneous impact force caused the two asteroids that collided together to shatter into a lot of small stones. These small rocks are very fast, most of them hit the body of asteroid No. 3, and many stones, coupled with high speed, instantly changed the orbit of asteroid No. 3, and directly shifted a little in the direction outside the sun.
However, the universe itself is different and allows any slight gap to appear, after a long distance of operation, the No. 3 asteroid turned out to be very far from its original orbit, and the No. 3 thruster did not stop the No. 3 asteroid!
