Chapter 74: New Species
The next ten hours were tense ten hours, because there was a big thing to do in the summer, that is, to capture the Fengyun No. 2 Cloud Eagle class battleship, no matter whether there were living people in it or not, and how many there were, he had only one purpose, he wanted to get this anti-thief battleship.
Since Fengyun II and Aurora II are flying in opposite directions, it is impossible to let Fengyun II brake directly in space and then accelerate to catch up with Aurora II. If this had to be done, the fuel carried by the flight formation would simply not be enough. And the flight formation is flying at high speed, which requires slowing down and consuming a lot of fuel.
The correct approach is that after receiving the order of the summer, the flight formation will begin to turn off the main engine, use inertial flight and auxiliary engines to change the course, do a large arc and fly a long distance to the back of Fengyun II, and then fly synchronously with Fengyun II, and then adsorb it. This is the first step.
The second step is to do the four poisonous scorpions and four thousand drones of the flight formation after successfully adsorbing the hull of Fengyun 2, start the power, accelerate, adjust the course, make a large arc to detour, and then fly synchronously in the same direction as Shuguang 2.
The third step is the most critical step, and that is the docking of Fengyun II and Dawn II. Fengyun II is a battleship, and Dawning II is a warship, and in terms of size, Fengyun II is much smaller than Shuguang II. However, compared to Dawn II, Fengyun II is still very large, and there is a certain degree of difficulty in docking.
There are four docking ports at the top of Dawning II and four docking ports at the bottom of Fengyun II, so as long as the same speed and consistent flight direction can be maintained, docking can still be completed. It seems that when the design was made, the scientific Confucians of the Ming Dynasty had already thought of this.
This capture scheme is the most fuel-efficient method, but even then the fuel of the flight formation will be depleted as a result.
Sitting in the command cabin in the summer, Wu Ruize and Mira are on the earth, and the two on the earth are not together, one is in the country and the other is in the United States. While the three of them, Diao Chan and many robots were waiting for the capture of the flying formation, they kept receiving various information from the front, but at this time, a new situation made everyone feel confused. That is, it was found that there were signs of life inside the Fengyun World War II ship!
"What's going on?" Summer jumped up and down, and carefully observed the 3D structure of the refreshed battleship, there were several flashing red dots in the structure diagram, and Summer knew that these red dots were the so-called signs of life. But here's the problem, these signs of life are in an oxygen-free and stress-free environment. How so?
What is known now is that Fengyun II, like Dawn II, has only humans and animals and plants in the earth's biological system. Although the Ming Dynasty is an independent civilization from outside the earth, its biological system is still a continuation of the earth system. Since it is a creature in the earth's biological system, it should be inseparable from oxygen and pressure. Otherwise, you can't survive.
However, Mira raised her objection: "There are bacteria in the Earth's biosphere that do not need oxygen. However, I have never heard of creatures in a vacuum, but that doesn't mean there aren't. ”
"Like a star bug?" Wu Ruize came out at the right time to show his existence.
"Starworm is not an Earth system creature, so it can't be counted." "Besides, most of the interior of Fengyun II has been contaminated with radioactivity. It is conceivable that there is no oxygen, no pressure, and no radioactivity, so how can the life of the earth survive? ”
"Maybe it's not an Earth creature at all?" Mira suddenly said, "Star insects, for example, are not terrestrial creatures. ”
"Could it be that these signs of life are Star Bug creatures?" Summer asked, "But no, the star insect mother body carries hundreds or hundreds of billions of sub-insect individuals when it goes out, and it can't just leave a few in a human spaceship, right?" ”
"It doesn't have to be the Star Bug," Mira said her opinion, "The information is not accurate yet, only the information will be determined later." If the current situation is true, then these life forms can be judged to have the following points: anaerobic, vacuum survival, and not afraid of radioactive contamination. ”
While they were discussing, the information sent back from the front changed again, that is, the unknown life form that had just been confirmed several times in a row suddenly disappeared. This surprised the three friends and couldn't judge what to do next.
Diao Chan said at this moment: "My lord, the flight formation is about to contact Fengyun II, are you sure of attachment?" Because of the communication delay, this order had to be finalized immediately. ”
Summer thought for a moment and said, "Go as planned." ”
"Summer!" Mira and Wu Ruize both shouted at the same time, because they also knew that there were too many uncertainties in the unfamiliar universe, too many variables, and if it was not done, it would involve personal safety, and it was not impossible for the ship to be destroyed and people to die.
"It's okay," said Summer, "let the flying formation capture the battleship first, and then let them fly over in the calculated orbit, and finally decide whether to let Fengyun II dock with my ship, we still have a few hours to discuss countermeasures, you say." ”
"Well," said Mira with a sigh, "I hope nothing happens." ”
In subsequent messages, unidentified lifeforms reappeared, and they disappeared every once in a while. I don't know what the reason is.
Through the video sent back from the front, it can be seen that the flight formation wrapped the Fengyun No. 2 battleship, kept sailing at the same speed and kept it at the same speed, and slowly approached the battleship. Of course, the footage that the three people saw was what happened twenty minutes ago, and this is the signal delay over long distances, and it is impossible to make real-time contact except for quantum communication.
The attachment operation was successful, it took about twenty minutes, and the four poisonous scorpions and all the drones in the flying formation were all attached to the hull of the battleship. And as needed, start the engine of the corresponding aircraft to change the orbit and make a large arc detour.
All that remains to be done is that the flight formation, which has already captured the battleship, must complete the docking with Aurora II within six hours. This is a very difficult process. Fengyun II and Dawning II have to adjust their speed and flight trajectory to each other, as well as their positions with each other, and the slightest deviation will make the docking mission fail.
And the universe is three-dimensional, which makes the docking task even more difficult. This docking is not only a docking, but also allowing the two aircraft flying in the opposite direction to fly in the same direction and at the same speed, which requires high time consistency.
The next six hours were tense, Mira took leave and didn't go to class, Wu Ruize also notified the secretary that he would not go to work, both of them had prepared instant noodles early, and the two planned to watch the whole process.
