Volume 1 The Gold Rush Threat Chapter 31 Black Ball
You can see others, but you can't hear what others say. So what is the purpose of this white ball?
Some people associate its appearance with Qiao Yuan's disappearance, thinking that he could be responsible for it. But his flesh and blood body is a mortal, where did he get such ability?
Now in addition to all kinds of questions, the biggest problems in front of everyone are two:
First, how to deal with the imminent arrival of the gold rush?
Second, the earth is wrapped, is this white ball friend or foe? How to deal with it?
"According to current observations, this 'black ball' should be twice the size of the Earth! When an object of this size is moored into the solar system, the gravitational pull generated by it will change the trajectory of the other planets, if they collide...... Then the solar system will cease to exist! ”
His forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and he said with a stern face.
The others were instantly dumbfounded when they heard that this black ball was twice the size of the earth! A civilization that can propel such a large object and fly through the universe at speeds like light is as technological as humans are now like ants compared to humans. Perhaps the current scientific and technological strength of human beings is not even comparable to that of an ant.
"Now we still have to be optimistic," Braque still has the usual calm demeanor in the face of such a form, "Now what the purpose of their coming, we don't have a clear message, you can't be so pessimistic." ”
The scientists ignored him, he cleared his throat in embarrassment, and continued,
"Now we can't use what we think of as 'science' to look at these extraterrestrial visitors, the last time Qiao Yuan contacted them, they also made it clear that they would not be bad for mankind. Now that he's gone, nothing has happened to us...... Except for this nasty thing on the top of the head! Maybe the black ball can only be seen, but it's actually no different from the white ball, and it's also a completely massless thing, and I can't say for sure. ”
"Not necessarily! Mr. President," Wang Ziheng retorted unhurriedly, "from the moment we observed this object, we found that it has an interesting phenomenon, it is not only getting closer and closer to the earth, but also gradually increasing in size. ”
"This ...... Does this have any effect? The volume of the white ball before is also gradually getting larger? ”
"Of course there is a huge impact!" Wang Ziheng swiped the screen and released a comparison picture, "You see, this thing slows down by increasing its size. ”
Regarding Wang Ziheng's statement, he was immediately refuted by scientist Bigao: "How is this possible? Slowing things down by getting bigger? There is a vacuum in the universe! It's not on Earth, there will be air resistance! ”
"That's true, Dr. Bigao, just as you used to criticize Dr. Phisan for saying that the alien gold diggers won't come," Wang Ziheng was a little disdainful of Bigao's rebuttal, and retorted back with his previous criticism of the world's criticism of the Doomsday Prophecy, "But that's the truth, as it grows in size, its speed has been decreasing dramatically. ”
"That doesn't mean there's a connection!" Bi Gao blushed his neck, extremely dissatisfied with Wang Ziheng's words, "I didn't target anyone, I just looked at the problem rationally......"
"How big will it be when it arrives on Earth?" Phisan didn't care about this pointless argument, and asked the point in one sentence.
"If the current mathematical model is correct, we should have a visual volume the size of Jupiter in the solar system!" Prince Hengdao.
"So big!"
Braque and several other presidents jumped in surprise.
Jupiter is 318 times the size of the Earth and more than 2.5 times the volume of the entire solar system combined.
"It's not just the size that's scary!" Wang Ziheng lifted his glasses, "Its orbit is also very peculiar, almost avoiding other planets, passing by Mars, and just docking next to the earth......"
"So will Mars collide with its gravitational pull?"
"Not even more! Apparently they had planned this route perfectly many years ago, they had perfectly entered the orbit of the solar system and would have kept some distance from Earth. Then the result can now be predicted, and it may be between the orbits of the Earth and Mars, or between the orbits of the Earth and Venus. ”
Hearing that this behemoth will not hit the earth, the politicians are relieved. Only the scientists present were all grim-faced, and their expressions were even more embarrassed than just now.
"In this way, it won't affect us in the short term, just like the white ball now." Braque breathed a sigh of relief, and leaned down comfortably on his back, he had been sitting here nervously for three days, except for eating and sleeping, he had barely left this stool, everyone was the same.
"Nope! That's the scariest thing! "If this black star, if it gets too close to the Earth, its gravitational pull will capture the Earth." Can you imagine what the world would look like if the Earth revolved around a black star? ”
Braque's nerves were tensed again, and he had been tossed for the past few days. He took out the pill, ate one, and said in a slow whisper, "What if it didn't capture the earth?" ”
"If it is in orbit between Venus and the Earth, then it is possible to block the Sun, and if the Earth is under its dark shadow, then it will instantly turn into an ice ball!" Bigao explained.
"Obviously, no matter how you look at it now, humanity cannot escape this catastrophe!" Phisan rubbed his swollen eyes and announced the result in disappointment.
"Then we don't have any other way?"
This time Kantansky was unusually silent, listening from the sidelines, and now that the results were out, he couldn't help but throw out his own questions.
"Absolutely!" Wang Ziheng suddenly smiled strangely, "That's to live in the moment!" Human beings are just parasites on a speck of dust in the universe, and there is no need to be so pessimistic even if they disappear. After all, our civilization also had a glorious history, and we can still ensure the continuation of some civilizations. ”
Wang Ziheng's meaning, everyone instantly understood, at least on the distant Mars, there are more than 1,000 people there to open up the universe. This cosmic catastrophe hardly had much impact on them. After all, for half a century, humanity has been almost self-sufficient on Mars.
Some people have been proposed to send some people to Mars in the short term, but the entire ecosystem on Mars is so limited that even one more person will face unimaginable risks. If most of the people are allowed to go to Mars, the eventual plundering of resources will destroy the last stronghold of humanity.
Everyone stood up for the result in front of them, and their hearts were very heavy.
"In any case, we should stand the last post for human civilization!" Pisan said loudly.
Everyone expressed their support, the lifeless atmosphere was instantly enlivened, and people's hearts were finally united at this moment.
Subsequently, the United Nations, on behalf of governments, also announced the exact time of this end of the world. I hope people can live this last month and live in the moment. There are no borders, races, occupations, or hierarchies, and this time humanity is completely united.
Seeing the calmness of people in the face of despair in the Heavenly Palace, Qiao Yuan was also deeply moved in his heart. Suddenly, he saw a familiar face on another screen - Du Yun!
He is secretly carrying out an ulterior project in a secret base.
It turned out that Du Yun had predicted today a year ago, and he decisively took refuge in Morandi and pointed out a clear way for him. In Morandi's secret base, a super-large rocket has entered its final stage, this super-large rocket is bundled with 3 rockets and can hold more than 60 people. They have only one goal, and that is the Martian base.
