Chapter 151: Destroy the Comet
Before Mu Xinghai set off, he received Zhang Jingyuan's instructions: to test the power of the railgun developed by the master company.
In fact, although the information disclosed by the master company shows that the weapons of the Dream aircraft are three types of railguns and laser cannons; In fact, there is only one medium-strength railgun and a laser cannon on the current aircraft. However, the power of these weapons can be adjusted.
Zhang Jingyuan kept one sentence in mind: the barrel of a gun comes out of power. Of course, this is an era of peace, and I don't have that anti-heart; But weapons are still inevitable to ensure their own interests and security.
Just like now, although the state is very strict in the management of weapons, in fact, the bosses with a net worth of more than 100 million basically have pistols to defend themselves. Of course, these weapons are not intended to do anything bad, just to defend themselves. Of course, some people are not clean in the process of starting a home, which is also one of the reasons.
But master companies must also have their own strategic weapons. Not for anything else, Zhang Jingyuan believes that there are definitely N wolves staring at the current master company, isn't this time also a test! Therefore, the master company is going to show its fist to the outside world. Of course, in terms of cultivation, the master company is still strictly guarded, and under Zhang Jingyuan's strict management, no outsiders have clearly known the fact that the master company has openly practiced. However, the so-called public practice is only a small number of core employees. The vast majority of ordinary researchers, foreign researchers, ordinary workers, etc., do not have this qualification. But kindergartens are universal.
It is in this situation that this time Mu Xinghai also has his own task: to test the full power of the railgun, so that the master company can develop future space-based weapons!
"Position, we're about to leave the comet's range, and we're glad we're safe." Before leaving, the pilot made a small joke. The rest of the matter is something that these passengers don't need to know.
The spaceliner began to accelerate its return home, and at the same time turned over, once again focusing all eyes on Earth. Airplanes are now more than 500,000 kilometers away from the Earth.
And because the direction of return is exactly the same as the direction of coming, the comet's gravitational pull is too small to provide enough steering force for the aircraft. As a result, the aircraft had to brake in the opposite direction with the engine and then start accelerating again. By the time I got back to outer space, it was already four hours later.
At the scene, the two Dream planes slowly adjusted their orientation in space, and the direction of the nose was just aimed at the comet nucleus. Although it is said that the rail cannon can rotate in any direction, it is better to fire it properly for the first time, just in case.
The two planes are about 10 kilometers apart, communicate via a radio link, and point to the comet's nucleus in parallel, while maintaining a high-speed flight in the same direction as the comet under its original inertia. The distance from the comet's nucleus is 300 km.
"Ready, inspect the facility!" Mu Xinghai commanded with all his might.
"Unit 1 is in good condition." The co-pilot debriefs.
"Unit 2 is in perfect condition."
Mu Xinghai: "The second step is to open the rail compartment, fill in the 1.3 kg warhead, and check the power cord. β
"The No. 1 machine has been executed and is in good condition."
"The second machine has been executed and is in good condition."
At this time, a small hole with a diameter of three centimeters suddenly appeared under the cockpit of the Dream aircraft, and it was nothing else, a rail gun.
Mu Xinghai: "Open the laser cannon, the lowest power, lock the comet nucleus, two locations." β
Execution completed......
Mu Xinghai: "Charge!" β
"The power supply is 100% complete and in good condition!"
"Huh......" Mu Xinghai's eyes were bright, staring at the comet in front of him, buddy, I'm sorry, I found you when I looked for it, and I could only make you a real thing. Launch! β
The co-pilot next to him lightly clicked the red button, which was marked with the symbol of a skull!
Rumble! The plane shook violently and began to retreat. Mu Xinghai and the others retreated violently because of the plane, and their bodies bowed into a "C" shape.
And at the same time, nothing is visible ahead. But it doesn't matter, according to the relationship between the action force and the reaction force, the plane retreats, then the warhead must have been launched.
At a speed of 12 kilometers per second, it took only 25 seconds for the warhead to hit the top of the comet.
Almost instantly, two huge craters with a diameter of seven or eight kilometers appeared on the surface of the comet, and a large amount of gravel and ice rushed into space and became part of the comet's tail. However, the changes are by no means limited to this, a large number of cracks began to appear on the surface of the comet, spreading in all directions like cobwebs; The advancing comet changed its orbit one by one, and the column of a large amount of erupting smoke shook for a while, and turned into an S shape.
The plane immediately ignited, braked, and finally settled, and the distance from the comet had increased to 400 kilometers.
Through the optical telescope, you can see that the surface of the comet is full of cracks, and in a short period of time, at least four or five kilometers thick ice rock layer crumbles and flies into space; And now, the comet is still decomposing. It's a pity that there is no sound in space, and you can't feel the shock of that huge sound.
"Brother Hai, do it again!" The captain of the second plane is also Mu Xinghai's former comrade-in-arms.
"Good!" Mu Xinghai looked at the scene in front of him, "Let's see how many times we can destroy this comet with a diameter of 200 kilometers!" β
"It's ready, just wait for Brother Hai's order."
"Okay, you can attack by yourself, remember to record the number jΓΉ."
"Okay! I'm really glad to join the master company. Other countries are still developing rail weapons, and master companies have developed into space-based weapons! β
The two planes again shot two projectiles each. A total of 6 projectiles were applied to a comet with a diameter of 200 kilometers.
The powerful effect directly caused the 200-kilometer-long comet to disintegrate in space and turn into a group of debris flying all over space, encompassing a cube space with a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers.
"Brother Hai, it seems that I didn't expect the comet to be so dangerous!" Liu Haibo, the pilot of the No. 2 plane, wiped the seawater on his head. As a pilot of a master company, whose qualifications are second only to Mu Xinghai's talents, Liu Haibo is also a little afraid. The disintegrating comet suddenly turned into a cloud of debris and shot out in all directions; If it weren't for the good performance of the aircraft, a disaster might have happened.
"Alright, it's time to go back to the ground, escort the Flying back to the ground. I didn't expect the rail cannon to be so powerful. In the future, even if a meteorite hits the earth, there will be a way to deal with it. β
In the distance, the comet, which had turned into debris covering tens of thousands of kilometers, instantly turned into a large cloud and mist, and fell mightily towards the sun.

On the ground, a club of astronomy enthusiasts in Europe is observing a comet, the weather is clear today, the moon is not very bright, the comet that flew past the moon is so fascinating, the comet with a diameter of 200 kilometers is not big, but it is not the smallest either; But why does the comet disintegrate shortly after it flies by the moon? Could it be that it was torn apart by the gravitational pull of the moon?
However, many astronomy enthusiasts saw this sudden change of comet tonight. The space shuttle, which is extremely small compared to a comet, has not been observed.
