"Sun's." The number jù terminal replied briefly.

"A bunch of sun's ...... Ashes? Hao Ren was a little surprised, "Is it an extinguished star?" What about other than that? ”

"There is nothing beyond that, no planets, no asteroid belts, no man-made celestial bodies. The joint thinking process of the drone swarm compared the starry sky in the Wraith's memory, and it found a spot where it could observe a similar starry sky, and the star map coincidence rate reached 99.99%, which basically confirmed that it was the place where the Wraith looked up at the starry sky - but that location was only in the middle of nowhere, and the closest entity to it was an extinct star. The only good news now is that the star is still a little far from the location we judged before, about two astronomical units away, so the Nangong couple should not have been thrown into the sun, but on a certain planet of the sun, but those planets have disappeared. ”

The crowd breathed a sigh of relief.

Lily leaned on the back of her seat: "Let's go over and have a look." ”

Hao Ren nodded, and gave the order to disconnect the ship from the outpost. The Giant Tortoise Rock retracted its contact beam and disappeared into space in a silver light, while the small outpost reoriented the crystal plate and quickly returned to its working state.

After a short voyage, the ship arrived at its destination. The observation platform on the upper part of the Giant Tortoise Rock Platform slowly poked out from under the armor belt, and after the shading layer was lowered, the vast space appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the darkness was vast.

The terminal pointed a beam of light in a certain direction in space, and where the beam pointed, a small egg-sized, dim reddish glow could be seen: "That's ash." It's a long-extinguished sun, and it hasn't turned into a black hole. Now that only a slightly warm core remains, there is nothing left of the star. The remnants of this star float in the entire space around us...... Thin gases. Big bang fragments or something, very, very thin, negligible. ”

Hao Ren nodded, he could see an abnormal gray-brown color in the background of the universe, which was the ash left after the star exploded. Since these thin air masses have spread so far away, the current position of the ship must have been swallowed by the erupting corona, and if there were any planets here, they would probably have been burned to slag by the scorching nuclear flames.

But even if it is burned to slag, at least some "slag" should be left.

"Have you checked the possible tracks?" Hao Ren looked at the stellar embers in the distance. "Even if that star burns all its moons, it should at least leave some slag behind."

The terminal emitted a beep: "Checked, nothing." ”

"Expand the search area," Hao Ren nodded, "When a star explodes, it may blow away the celestial bodies around it." ”

"I can't think of it," the number of terminals wiggled its body, "I would like to remind you: according to calculations, the star in front of you exploded more than 10,000 years ago, and even if it blew its own moon, it should have happened at that time. The starry sky in Fury's memory was a hundred years ago, and it was quiet a hundred years ago - so if we couldn't find anything here now, then there wouldn't have been anything here a hundred years ago. ”

Yitzax suddenly said to the side: "Unless there was a planet here a hundred years ago, and then it ran away on its legs in one hundred years." ”

Elizabeth hugged her father's arms and nodded, "My dad has a point. ”

Vivien waved her hand to tell the little girl not to make a mess: "You know what your dad meant, it makes sense." ”

Elizabeth puffed out her chest: "Anyway, my dad's sustainability makes sense!" It's the law of nature! ”

Just when Hao Ren was about to say something more. A halo suddenly appeared out of thin air in the space near the spaceship, and a small, silver-glowing rectangular device jumped out of the halo and silently approached the Giant Tortoise Rock. Hao Ren recognized that this was the kind of detector he had unleashed in the first place—certainly not the original one. It is supposed to be a copy of the "descendants" of the unknown generations of probes, who are currently responsible for the star mapping of this area. This clever drone senses the position of the master controller. It flew straight to the observation platform of the Giant Tortoise Rock, and the back half of its casing opened to both sides. A small metal device floats out of its "belly" and falls into front of the eyes through the shield of the observation platform.

Lily immediately picked up the gadget curiously, and found that it was a broken part, and the process of making it was clearly not on the Xiling device.

Hao Ren was suddenly surprised: "Where did it pick this up?!" ”

The number of Jù terminals went up to communicate with the probe: "It's several light-years away, it was found in space, and this piece of debris was flying in space at three hundredths of the speed of light. ”

Hao Ren thought of something and immediately ordered: "Follow in that direction!" ”

A burst of blue light emitted from the surface of the detection drone, which disappeared in front of everyone's eyes in an instant, while the terminal turned on the holographic projection, which showed the radar image that the detector kept transmitting, which was rapidly extending in a certain direction with the giant turtle rock platform as www.biquge.info pen pavilion. A moment later, a loud whistle suddenly sounded from the terminal, and a bright red dot appeared on the image: "The probe has discovered a planet!" But it's being pushed by a bunch of thrusters, and it's at least eight light-years away......"

Suddenly everyone was silent, and a circle of eyes focused on Izzax, who scratched his big bald head and laughed dryly: "It's really long legs and running away......"

Elizabeth continued to hug her arms with pride on her face: "So my dad has a point." ”

The Giant Tortoise Rock immediately followed the navigation signal sent by the probe, and soon chased after the planet that was running wildly in the vast space. The sight in front of them left everyone stunned.

A dim, grayish-white planet is moving lonely in space. Its surface is dotted with neat and large lines of ravines, traces of deep artificial modification of the entire planet, and where those lines meet, a large number of thrusters arranged symmetrically along the earth's axis. Some of the thrusters, the size of the mountains and the incredible size of outer space, are roaring, bursting from the massive vents with brilliant flames that stretch for hundreds of miles, propagating the planet through space and maintaining a slow process of acceleration.

This planet embodies a kind of "rough technical power" everywhere, and the propulsion method it uses is obviously still a primitive working fluid engine, which is not the same as the "coordinate-driven method" used by many space civilizations, but it is this simple and crude propulsion method that makes the entire planet present a stunning sense of power.

The Giant Tortoise Rock Platform was flying synchronously over this dim planet, and Hao Ren looked down at the gray-white earth under his feet from the observation platform: "The detection drone didn't find this planet before?" ”

"In the early days, the drone was just mapping and sketching, and it was basically a star, and as for the planets and the small objects wandering in space, they were all obscured by a larger gravitational source or light source," explained the number of terminals, "In addition, the planet in front of us is right on the boundary line of the two detection drone cruise areas, so there is a high chance that it will be ignored." After all...... It neither emits light, nor does it have a great mass, and it is very cold. ”

"Roll" lay next to the observation platform and meowed in surprise, his tail dangling gently in the air: "That's where the big cat is looking?" ”

"Is this it?" Vivien also turned her head and asked.

The Terminal is measuring the trajectory of the wandering star, reversing where it was a hundred years ago based on its current path and acceleration. This requires complex calculations, and only approximates the ideal case - the stars are a constantly changing frame of reference, and all the celestial bodies are in motion, so the calculations have to be extrapolated at the same time. Fortunately, however, the time span that needs to be taken into account is only a meagre 100 years, and the relative positions of the stars will not change much in a hundred years.

"First of all, we assume that the planet will maintain its current thrust after leaving the star system, and then assume that it has not changed its course in a hundred years, nor has it been captured by other massive celestial bodies, and finally comprehensively consider the perturbation of all gravitational sources in the vicinity on it......" The number jù terminal muttered while calculating, and Hao Ren's head was as big as a bucket when he listened: "You speak directly to people." ”

"Oh, this should be the star we're looking for," the number jù snapped on Hao Ren's head, "A hundred years ago, it should have been located at the coordinate point we found before...... The deviation between the front and back is dozens of astronomical units, but on a space scale, this deviation is almost a seamless fit. ”

Lily poked Nangong May's back: "Your parents should be down there." Probably. ”

(Ask for a commuter pass =.) = Let's check to see if there is a monthly pass on hand, if there is, vote for it, there should be no double at the end of the month, and I may not be able to remember if there is a double...... (To be continued......)
