Chapter 340: The Disappearance of Europa

And this situation became more intense as Mars and Europa got closer and closer, but at this time, the huge railgun in the middle of the space city fired, only to see the railgun emit a huge blue light, and then a red cannonball instantly came out of the muzzle of the electromagnetic railgun, and after the muzzle, the red cannonball began to slowly dim until it disappeared in everyone's eyes.

In fact, it is not that the cannonball disappeared, but because the cannonball was heated to a very high temperature at the moment of launch, after all, the railgun generated a huge amount of energy when it was launched, which acted on the railgun, so it emitted a red light, but when the railgun ejected the railgun, due to the lack of energy, the background temperature in space was very low, so the cannon ejected the railgun, and the muzzle of the railgun naturally began to cool, so after cooling, people naturally could not see these shells.

At this time, in addition to the railgun on the space city, all the large and super-large electromagnetic railguns on the moon all fired together, and I saw a meteor-like fire flying up from all over the moon and heading straight for Mars.

Io's sudden disintegration is due to the human electromagnetic cannon strike, Europa is quite fragile compared to Mars, after all, the volume of two weeks is there, so under the blow of these large electromagnetic railguns of human beings, Io directly disintegrated, but fortunately, because these electromagnetic railguns on the space city and the moon did not directly fire at maximum power, so there was no direct explosion, just hit Io to disintegration, if there is no gravitational effect of Mars, It is basically impossible to hit Io to disintegrate in this way, at most it can only hit more cracks, or directly blow up Io, but due to the extreme instability of Mars under the effect of Mars' gravity, the use of human electromagnetic cannon strikes will cause Io to disintegrate directly instead of exploding.

Finally, ten minutes later, the two planets merged together, although the speed of Io had dropped to freezing at this time, which was basically the same as the speed of Mars, but no matter where the volume and size of Io were placed, but at this moment, Io suddenly cracked the whole planet, and various cracks became bigger and bigger, and then the entire Io slowly disintegrated at first, and at this time, the entire Io finally crashed into Mars under the influence of Mars.

The white light was emitted from the middle of two weeks at the moment of the impact of Europa, and at the same time, various unmanned probes all over Mars and Europa also transmitted back various data at the moment of the impact of the two planets, and various high-definition unmanned cameras around Mars also transmitted various pictures back to Zhu Lei's fleet, and the live broadcast cameras that were relatively far away from Mars also transmitted the captured pictures back to the Earth headquarters.

All the people watching the Ming Empire can clearly see that under the impact of Io, half of Mars was suddenly shattered, and the internal scene of Mars is obviously visible, Mars is no better than other planets in the solar system, because the interior of Mars has been mostly cooled at this time, so people have not seen the magma erupting violently from Mars, but it is not that there is no magma, but it is relatively small.

Compared to Mars, the situation of Io is different, because Io is more fragile than Mars, and it is attacked by human electromagnetic railguns, so at this moment, after hitting Mars, Io is directly shattered.

And the core of Io is very hot, so after the impact of Mars, the hot magma flies everywhere, and at the moment of impact, you can clearly see the internal structure of Io, the entire Io is surrounded by dark red structures, which are all hot lava, the more you look at the middle of Io, the more different the color, when you reach the middle of Io, the whole core becomes blazing white.

In just a few minutes, the whole Mars has undergone tremendous changes, especially in the vicinity of the impact, all kinds of rocks have begun to melt, and the core of Io has begun to slowly sink into the middle of Mars, although this process is not very fast, but it is not very slow, after all, the core temperature of Io is hotter than that of Earth, so the earth of Mars cannot prevent it from entering the core of Mars.

At this time, with the impact of Io and the integration of the inner core, the entire Mars began to riot, and all kinds of liquid carbon dioxide and water began to evaporate, turning into gas and forming various fogs to rise into the sky of Mars, and the atmosphere of Mars also thickened at a speed visible to the naked eye at this time.

The side of Mars that was hit was replaced by dark red lava due to the core of Europa, and the other half was also affected by the impact, creating huge cracks, and the small amount of magma on Mars erupted from these cracks. And all sorts of volcanic ash in the air

The water vapor has been thunder and lightning everywhere, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Mars at this time can be said to be a real hell, this scene is only fleeting, and then it is drowned by all kinds of dust and debris produced by the impact.

And at this time, all kinds of debris produced by the impact are also flying around Mars, but due to the merger of Mars and Europa, the gravitational attraction of Mars has changed qualitatively, so these debris have been withdrawn by the gravitational force of Mars after the spacecraft Mars, and then have a scene with Mars like a nuclear bomb explosion.

Half an hour after the impact, the body of Mars is no longer visible at this time, and most of the various probes arranged by humans on it have been destroyed by shock waves and various debris and lightning on Mars, but now the technology of the Ming Empire is much more advanced than five years ago, and these probes are specially made for this matter, so there are still some probes on Mars that have not been destroyed. So at this time, these probes have launched all kinds of data they have collected back to Earth through their own transmitters.

Due to the angle of impact, at this time people can clearly see that Mars has changed its orbit before Io hits it, and it has shifted outward a little, but this is not unexpected, because this is something that has been expected for a long time, so people did not panic, and the rotation speed of Mars is a little faster than the original at this time, but because the orbit of Mars has changed a little, the orbit of Mars has not changed much.

The rotation speed of Mars has also changed in this impact, but the change is not very large, the average rotation speed of Mars before the impact is 24 hours, 39 minutes and 35.244 seconds, but after the impact of Ceres, its rotation speed has become less than 24 hours, but after this impact, the rotation speed of Mars is much faster than the original, and it has become less than 23 hours.

Therefore, at this time, the gravitational force of Mars has also changed, from the original 50% of the earth to about 91% of the earth, and this gravitational force can be suitable for human beings to survive on it.

And due to the increase in the gravitational force of Mars, as well as the increase in volume, Mars has no moons at this time, and the two satellites that originally revolved around Mars were directly pulled to Mars by the gravitational pull of Mars due to the sudden increase in Mars' gravity.

With the end of the Martian impact, the Suzaku Army and more than 100,000 spaceships in space at this time began to get busy, after all, such a fierce impact could not produce fragments, fortunately, the earth is still very far away from Mars at this time, and the position of the earth at this time is just about to go to the back of the sun, so the earth is still very safe at this time, but for the debris produced by the impact Zhu Lei They must be removed, not only so that the earth is not affected by these debris, It is also for the safety of the shipping lane, after all, Mars is to inhabit human beings in the future, if these fragments are not clear, then the shipping path of Mars after the earth will become very dangerous in the future, after all, no one wants to be suddenly attacked by an asteroid when going to Mars, and die.

These debris thrown by Mars are large and small, the big ones are larger than the largest spaceships in Zhu Lei's fleet, and the small ones are only as big as cosmic dust, and all Zhu Lei has to do is destroy all the debris that are more than ten centimeters in volume.

Although it is said that the debris of about ten centimeters is no longer harmful to the earth, it still poses a great threat to spacecraft sailing in space, especially those private small spaceships and individual spacecraft.

Zhu Lei, their fleet, and all the spaceships around them began to intercept the debris one after another, and then either destroy them or capture them and then re-throw them to Mars.

And because Io is different from Mars, the core of Mars has basically cooled, but the core of Io is still red-hot, so the first time after the impact, the scientists of the Ming Empire began to analyze the hungry data transmitted back by the remaining probes on Mars, after all, this is the key to whether human beings can survive on Mars in the future, so they are very concerned about this entire human race, and they are always waiting for the data release of the Ming Imperial Academy of Sciences.

After a few hours of calculations, the scientists of the Daming Academy of Science have analyzed several times, you can determine that the magnetic field of Mars at this time is recovering rapidly, and eventually the magnetic field of Mars will reach more than 890% of the earth, or even the same as the earth, it can be said that the transformation of Mars is very successful.

And now Zhu Lei, all they have to do is wait, wait for Mars to calm down again, and this time has been inferred by the scientists of the Ming Empire to be at least more than 10 years, after all, if the impact is not accurately calculated, then Mars will be directly knocked out, and now after accurate calculations, Mars has not been hit and exploded at this time, but the two planets have become one from now on, and there will be no Europa in the solar system from now on.

Although the merger of Mars and Io is very successful, Mars is actually very fragile at this time, if an asteroid hits Mars at this time, there is no need for an asteroid as big as Europa, as long as an asteroid as big as Ceres and Vesta, it is now enough to destroy Mars.

Therefore, if the Mars project is to continue, it will definitely need to wait for Mars to calm down completely, and this period will take at least 10 to 15 years.

For nearly a year, the whole of Mars was covered in thick clouds and volcanic ash, and the Mars itself was completely invisible.

And during this period, the Ming Empire also sent many probes to Mars to detect the data on Mars, although Mars is calmer than when it hits, but because the core of Mars and the core of Europa are still fused, it is still very unstable, and there are many volcanoes that are erupting at this time.

And according to the data of the rover, the average temperature on Mars at this time is more than 70 or 80 degrees, and even the stability of the north and south poles is about 50 degrees, but according to scientists' inference, the temperature of the heart will gradually decrease over time, but this process will take about 10 to 15 years.

However, because the liquid carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases on Mars were evaporated into the air in this impact at this time, the thickness of the atmosphere on Mars at this time has reached about 90 kilometers, which is almost the same as the thickness of the Earth's atmosphere, but at this time, the atmosphere of Mars is mainly composed of carbon dioxide and nitrogen, and the content of oxygen is very small or even one percent, after all, Mars is full of erupting volcanoes at this time, And the flames from these volcanoes will definitely consume oxygen, so it is natural that the oxygen concentration on Mars is very low at this time, and it will not be possible for humans to change it until Mars calms down after 15 years.

And at this time, the content of water vapor in the atmosphere of Mars is also very large, and there is a high temperature caused by the impact with Europa, and the core of Io and the core of Mars, the temperature of the entire Mars has begun to gradually rise, and due to the effect of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide on Mars, the average temperature of the entire Mars will be maintained at about 20 degrees after 15 years, and due to the thick atmosphere.

The temperature difference between day and night and winter and summer on Mars has also changed considerably, and the maximum average temperature difference will not exceed 30 degrees, and the highest temperature on Mars will not exceed 30 degrees in the future, and the lowest temperature will be maintained at the poles of Mars, their temperature will be maintained at about minus 30 degrees, it can be said that Mars is a very ideal planet for human beings at this time.

However, we still have to wait until the environment on Mars is relatively stable in a few years before we can make plans, and no one knows what the situation will be in my heart in the future, but if the current situation continues, the hope of human immigration to Mars is still very large.
