Comet Arthur's forward speed is still increasing, and it only takes a day to cross a long distance of 28 million kilometers. So the two Lightbringer ships can work for another half a day. After half a day, they will be burned in the sun.

Naturally, the two Lightbringer spacecraft launched by human civilization are not capable of accelerating to a speed comparable to that of Comet Arthur on their own fuel and engines alone. But it doesn't matter, just like the famous "two iron balls landing at the same time" phenomenon in the history of the earth, when the Lightbringer I and II spacecraft have the same orbit as Comet Arthur, the sun's gravity will accelerate the Lightbringer spacecraft at the same time as Comet Arthur, and the acceleration rate will be the same. Therefore, the Lightbringer spacecraft does not need to consume additional fuel to maintain a relatively stationary state with Comet Arthur.

The track adjustment work has been carried out at the most critical time. Due to the distance and high communication latency, the ground control base had already given up control of the Lightbringer spacecraft two days earlier, and instead handed over control to the Crimson Heart. Five astronauts, led by Captain Laguel, are nervously maneuvering the solar reflector to make the final orbital calibration of Comet Arthur.

In order to prevent the powerful thunderstorm that may come from the impact of Comet Arthur on the Sun, the Crimson Heart spacecraft has taken refuge on the far side of Mercury and orbits the Sun at a distance of one million kilometers from Mercury in the same orbital period as Mercury. In this way, it can always hide behind Mercury, and no matter how violent the solar storm of Comet Arthur's impact will bring, Mercury will take on all of it for it. At the same time, due to its long distance from Mercury and its small gravitational pull, the Crimson Heart spacecraft only needs to consume very little fuel to maintain its orbit and will not fall on Mercury.

The Lightbringer spacecraft is operated by the astronauts aboard Crimson Heart for short periods of time, while the ground control base remains responsible for long-term control. The three have always been in contact with each other, and they have never been severed.

In the ground control base, images of Comet Arthur and the Lightbringer spacecraft are constantly displayed on large screens. Hundreds of scientists, as well as the commander-in-chief of the impact mission, Frank, were here. A large number of media reporters also gathered here to broadcast everything here in real time to any corner of Equateur City and the City of Life.

As you can see from the big screen, the gas explosion above the fragments of Comet Arthur's comet nucleus has reached its most violent stage. As the temperature rises and the internal pressure increases, violent explosions occur all the time on top of the comet nucleus, and after each explosion, a fountain-like gas erupts from it. Under the immense power of the sun, the tail of Comet Arthur stretches for hundreds of millions of kilometers, and the sun's rays reflected by these tails can be seen even from the Earth during the day.

It's afternoon in the City of Life, one of the brightest times of the day when the sun shines. But even so, when people look up at the sun, they can still see the bright comet Arthur.

Comet Arthur is right next to the Sun, and even the Sun's rays can't hide it.

During the seven days that it crossed the Earth's orbit and continued to fly towards the Sun, every human on Earth witnessed how this comet, which carries the hopes and expectations of human civilization, has become brighter step by step. In the beginning, it could only be seen by people with good visual eyesight without light interference and in excellent viewing conditions, but after just a few days, it surpassed Sirius, the brightest star of the day, and then Jupiter and Venus in brightness, and then it began to catch up with the moon, and by the last night when Comet Arthur could be seen, it was almost at the level of a full moon. Even if there is no moon in the sky, Comet Arthur can shine a light on the earth.

Then you can't see it at night. Because it was so close to the sun, it began to rise and set with the sun. Its figure has gone from night to day, shining on the world with the sun.

This is an astronomical wonder that is rare for thousands of years, and because of the special significance it carries, it quickly became the most well-known comet in the earth's civilization. It is known that the two Lightbringer spacecraft are right next to Comet Arthur, and are working hard to adjust the forward trajectory of this comet, which is unusually large compared to humans, with human strength......

Frank's name was also heard by the ears of every human on Earth, along with the name of Comet Arthur. As Frank wishes, he is now one of the most well-known scientists in Earth's civilization, and during this time, he has even surpassed Zhao Huasheng's fame. Under Frank's light, Zhao Huasheng was like a dim and inconspicuous star, and not many people would pay attention to him.

Frank knew that whether the comet impact plan would succeed and whether he could become the greatest hero in human history would be decided in less than a day.

On this day, the entire city of Equatoria fell silent. Except for the necessary work, everyone stopped busy, and everyone went home, staying in front of the television or other media, anxiously waiting for the results. For the first time, the busy city of Equator stopped its always hectic pace and entered into a state of peace and rest.

In addition to waiting for the comet impact plan to come to fruition, there was another thing that forced people to give up their jobs and go home. That is the possibility of a strong solar storm eruption. Although the solar wind travels slowly, electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light. If the solar eruption contains something like high-energy gamma rays after the impact, it is better to hide in the basement or indoors than to be exposed to the wild.

Zhao Huasheng also hid in the basement, and like the others, quietly watched the live broadcast of the comet impact project in front of the TV. The announcer's impassioned voice continued to echo through the small basement: "The comet impact program has entered its most critical and final stage. Ground Control has just received a message from the Crimson Heart, and Captain Lagher has confirmed that the two Lightbringer ships have been destroyed by the sun, as well as all of the sunlight reflectors, as well as the engines mounted on the core fragments of Comet Arthur's comet, as well as the solar radiation and comet explosion. But Captain Laguel can also confirm that fifteen pieces of comet nucleus fragments have a suitable orbit, and they will crash into different regions of the sun according to the wishes of our human civilization......"

"The Sun is a sphere, but because the fifteen pieces of comet nuclei already have different orbits, they will hit different parts of the Sun, including the far side of the Sun. The impact of these fifteen pieces of comet nuclei will leave no dead ends, and they will encompass the entire sun in the impact range. ”

"Now, fifteen pieces of comet nucleus fragments are four to five million meters away from the sun. The fragments of Comet Arthur's A, which is closest to the Sun, will hit the Sun three hours later. In fact, the distance of four million kilometers is already within the confines of the solar corona, and our solar observation satellites have already observed traces of Comet Arthur's debris and coronal friction......"

Zhao Huasheng climbed out of the basement and looked up at the sun. It was not out of Zhao Huasheng's expectation that at this moment Comet Arthur had disappeared and could no longer be seen. Although Comet Arthur is at its highest brightness at this moment, it is too close to the Sun, too close, to be seen with the naked eye. It will crash into the sun shortly thereafter and disappear from the universe forever.

Zhao Huasheng looked at the sky for a while, and then returned to the basement again. Through live TV, Zhao Huasheng also saw the specially processed picture of the sun. Under the intense rays of the sun, a very noticeable thin line appeared. Zhao Huasheng knew that it was Comet Arthur.

At this very moment, billions of tons of material are crashing into the sun at a rapid pace. Comet Arthur's mass far exceeds that of the original Moth Impactor, and Comet Arthur's impact velocity is also much faster than that of the Moth Impactor. Therefore, the impact of Comet Arthur will inevitably spread to an area much larger than the figure of three million square kilometers.

"What do you have in mind at this time?" Zhao Huasheng asked.

The voice of the plasma life form appeared in Zhao Huasheng's mind: "The thought in my heart is to destroy human civilization. If you ask me how I feel now...... It's probably like the feeling you had when you saw countless humans frozen to death. ”

Zhao Huasheng raised the corners of his mouth slightly and did not speak.

Time was still slipping by, and three hours were rushing. Frank's voice also spread throughout Equatorial City at this moment, as well as throughout the entire City of Life, to all places on Earth where there are human beings.

"If nothing happens, the fragments of Comet Arthur's A, numbered A, have hit the sun at this moment. And because of the signal delay, it takes about eight minutes for us to notice the changes in the sun due to the impact. Frank's voice was calm and steady: "Now, let's start waiting together." In eight minutes, everything will be revealed. ”
