Chapter 241: Hammer of Dawn and Deathlight

This is the Hammer of Dawn, commonly known as a super-powered kinetic weapon.

The tip of the Hammer of Dawn is a completely physical piece of metal, a quantum computer controlled by Nana in charge of molecular calculus, a cheap 3000 degrees Celsius resistant to high temperatures discovered a few years ago. It is also composed of a special material calcium crystal film with a gasification temperature of 15,000 degrees Celsius, which can be adjusted in multiple sizes, including 5,000 tons, 50,000 tons, 500,000 tons, and even 100 meters in length, width and height.

The tail is equipped with a small, inexpensive, disposable fusion reactor engine, which is used as a source of kinetic energy and can output speeds in the roughly range of 50 km/s to 5,000 km/s.

As for the killing method of the Dawn Hammer, it is very simple, that is, "collision", relying on the powerful kinetic energy contained in the huge metal lump in the case of a high-speed fall, it can produce a destructive power per unit area that is more terrifying than a nuclear bomb.

If you know the 1994 collision of Jupiter Shoemaker-Levi-9, you will know that the comet, which was part of the warhead at that time, was about 4 kilometers in length, width and height, and had a speed of about 50 kilometers per second, and after falling into Jupiter's atmosphere, it rose a mushroom cloud at an altitude of 1,000 kilometers, which is equivalent to a local high temperature of 30,000 degrees Celsius, and a local dark spot with a diameter of 1,900 kilometers.

Another example is 65 million years ago, the end of the age of dinosaurs, ushered in the age of mammals, the asteroid that fell into the earth was 10 kilometers in diameter, which caused the extinction of 80% of the world's organisms, and the temperature of the atmosphere even rose to 1500 degrees Celsius in a short time, leaving a large crater with a diameter of 180 kilometers in the territory of the corn country.

This shows how terrifying a kinetic weapon with a killing method similar to that of a meteorite impact is. The electromagnetic cannon is like an ant in front of the Hammer of Dawn.

Of course, so far, the kinetic energy weapons researched by the East Galaxy Company have only just reached the 500,000-ton level, compared with the above-mentioned big guys, there is still a considerable distance, otherwise it is estimated that it is not far from the star-destroying weapon.

But such a weapon. It is more than enough to completely erase a megacity like Paris from the map in an instant, and even if it is deliberately missed, it is enough to set off a super tsunami that is 100 meters high and stretches for a quarter of a planet, causing a shocking disaster.

With the Hammer of Dawn ready, there were still ten minutes before it could complete the acceleration into the earth, and White Lotus was busy adjusting another strategic weapon.

"It's the turn of the dead light, and the target is the North Sea fishing grounds. It covers an area of 10,000 square kilometers and lasts 500 milliseconds... The parameters have been set and the official launch is expected in 30 minutes. ”

Death light, its killing method is high-energy gamma rays, as an ultra-short electromagnetic wave, gamma rays are more lethal than high-energy beams. The beam cannon relies on high temperatures, and after hitting the surface of the target, it generates heat due to temperature changes. This in turn leads to the weakening of intermolecular forces until the trait is changed; Gamma rays are used directly on the atoms that make up matter. This will lead to the destruction of the stable structure between electrons, protons and neutrons.

Therefore, the main mode of destruction of the dead light is radiation, which is essentially a new generation of nuclear weapons, but it is more pure, and the mode of destruction of thermonuclear bombs is mainly high temperature and shock wave and a small amount of radiation. The mode of destruction of neutron bombs is mainly to penetrate buildings and kill people, and the main mode of destruction of dead light is pure radiation.

The measurement of this kind of radiation is thousands, tens of thousands of times more terrifying than the radiation produced by the explosion of a nuclear bomb, and coupled with the strong penetration of gamma rays, there is only a material with a plateau subordinal number. For example, lead plates can be effectively protected, even if the strength per unit area is not high, enough to kill all humans in a wide area in an instant.

The above two strategic weapons are enough to destroy human civilization, and the reason why they were researched is to guard against the unknown deep-diving mother type entrenched thousands of light years away.

In short, as the parameters of the Deathlight weapon were entered, White Lotus began to wait for the weapon to be launched.

The first was the Hammer of Dawn, only to see a vague black shadow emerging from the hull of the flagship of the First Combat Fleet above the orbital space 500 kilometers above the surface, and rushed towards Earth with the propulsion engine in the tail.

The excellent properties of the calcium crystal film make it not like an ordinary meteorite passing through the atmosphere, at least 90% of the mass will be consumed, and the material will melt into a liquid at 3,000 degrees Celsius, still wrapping the surface of the warhead, absorbing more amount of heat until it completely evaporates.

The only flaw of the Hammer of Dawn is that if it is intercepted, its power will be greatly reduced, and its self-protection ability is quite weak, and it must be escorted by unmanned units to have the full effect.

As the hammer of dawn penetrated into the atmosphere, the astronomical observatory on the earth frequently sounded warning sounds, and the astronomers who woke up saw in the monitoring screen that the behemoth that fell towards the surface was actually a man-made object, and their faces showed suspicion, or rather, because they did not capture the moment when the East Galaxy Company dropped the bomb, there was no way to find the culprit in the first place, and they could only report it urgently.

At the same time as they reacted, the Hammer of Dawn had completed its acceleration and approached the surface of the sea, and after the polishing of the atmosphere, the remaining remnants of the projectile body exceeded 2,000 tons, and when it maintained a speed of 600 km/s and a surface temperature of more than 5,000 degrees Celsius smashed into the sea, the surrounding sea water instantly churned violently and surged and exploded.

This was followed by a tsunami hundreds of meters high, and as we all know, the English Channel was a natural barrier between Victoria and Gaul, and the two continental powers were unable to fight each other for 10 centuries.

It's a pity that in modern times, the length of the English Channel of 560 kilometers and the width of 240 kilometers are nothing to the Hammer of Dawn, according to estimates, a head-on blow from the Hammer of Dawn, even the smallest size, will wipe a city of thousands of square kilometers off the map, not to mention the ultimate form of the Hammer of Dawn envisioned by the weapons and equipment team - an asteroid with a mass of hundreds of billions of tons and a diameter of several kilometers is transformed into a projectile, and then accelerated to a speed of 10,000 kilometers per second through multiple fusion energy engines, It can completely pierce the earth from the South Pole to the North Pole. (To be continued.) )

PS: Thinking that the speed of the spaceship is already at the five-digit level, theoretically it will hit the planet directly, and the destructive power must be very strong, so it is indeed feasible to check the information
