Chapter 185: A good show, a fireworks show
After listening to Zhou Dashi, Su Zhe and the others knew what was going on.
Fan Xiaoming looked at Zhou Dashi with a smile and asked, "Then do you want to know now?" ”
"Yes!" Zhou Dashi nodded hurriedly.
"Then I'll talk to you." Fan Xiaoming's face was full of smiles, "This Xuanwu plan is actually ......"
Fan Xiaoming briefly introduced the Xuanwu plan and the SS-defense system, but only gave a general introduction, and did not mention anything in detail.
After hearing this, Zhou Dashi said with a look of surprise: "This ...... Is this SS-defense system capable of intercepting asteroid impacts? ”
"Yes!" Fan Xiaoming nodded affirmatively, "But I haven't tried it yet, and I'll know if the SS-Defense System can intercept the asteroid after I have tried it." ”
"This asteroid is just the right time to test the combined detection and interception capabilities of the SS-defense system." Su Zhe said and took his laptop.
"Hey! I'm still worried that if the SS-Defense system fails...... An asteroid with a diameter of 110 meters! Its power ......" Zhou Dashi said, seeing a picture on Su Zhe's laptop screen that surprised him.
The picture is divided into several parts.
The main screen is an asteroid flying fast in the starry sky, and next to the main screen is a structural analysis of the asteroid and various parameters.
It's not just him who pays attention to the laptop screen, it's everyone.
Just when he was puzzled, Fan Xiaoming turned his head and said: "We are also afraid of the failure of the interception, so we evacuate all the personnel on the Tamu Gobi, what we are afraid of is just in case." ”
Zhou Dashi nodded, pointed to the laptop screen and asked, "This ...... What is this asteroid? ”
The asteroid is also potato-shaped, and its diameter is also 110 meters.
Judging from the parameters, the asteroid is 250,000 kilometers away from the Earth, and it is flying rapidly towards the Earth.
In his opinion, the asteroid shown on the laptop screen is the asteroid that is about to hit the Earth.
"That's right, this is the asteroid that is about to hit the Earth." Fan Xiaoming replied in the affirmative.
"This ...... Is it simulated on the laptop? It's like the real thing. Zhou Dashi said with a smile.
Su Zhe turned his head, smiled and said, "This is not a simulation, this is the real-time tracking screen of the SS-Defense System." ”
"This ...... That's impossible! Zhou Dashi couldn't believe it.
Zuo Dajun and the five assistants were also surprised.
They know about the Xuanwu Project and the SS-Defense System, but they don't know the specific parameters.
At first, they thought the same as Zhou Dashi, and thought that the picture displayed on the laptop was a simulation.
"How could it not be?" Fan Xiaoming asked rhetorically.
"This asteroid is 250,000 kilometers away from the Earth, and we ...... The SS-defense system can't really be that strong! Zhou Dashi realized it halfway through.
"Strong! Very strong! Fan Xiaoming said affirmatively.
At this moment, the mobile phones of Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming rang.
After checking, it was found that the two received encrypted emails.
The two logged in to the mailbox on their laptops.
Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming received the same email.
The content of the message is a preliminary plan for the SS-Defense system to intercept the asteroid.
The initial plan for interception mentions that the asteroid should be intercepted after it crashes into the Earth's middle atmosphere.
and the asteroid began to intercept at an altitude of 100 kilometers.
The programme also mentions the elimination of the threat of asteroids to the surface in space at an altitude of 10 to 100 kilometers.
After reading it, Fan Xiaoming asked Su Zhe with a smile, "What do you think of this preliminary plan?" ”
When the asteroid reaches an altitude of 100 kilometers, its speed is as high as 30 kilometers per second.
According to the trajectory of the budget, the full calculation of colliding with the ground is just over three seconds, and it will not exceed five seconds at most.
In the preliminary plan, when the asteroid flies to an altitude of 100 kilometers, the asteroid will receive the first wave of strikes from the SS-defense system.
Depending on the power of the strike, the asteroid will disintegrate into wreckage of various sizes.
The next step is to intercept the wreckage.
According to the requirements, all threatening wreckage is to be disposed of at an altitude of a minimum of ten kilometers.
"Basically doable!" Su Zhe nodded.
At this time, Su Zhe clicked on the ground deployment map of the SS-defense system.
It was found that the base of the SS-defense system subsystem that has already been launched has reached a thousand.
With these SS-defense system subsystem bases, it will be more than enough to deal with this asteroid.
As for the preliminary plan for interception, he felt that the person who designed the plan had thought it through.
Intercepting asteroids now, or intercepting asteroids in high orbits, is very risky.
Once the asteroid is crushed, the asteroid's debris flies all over space.
Such an outcome is a threat to satellites in space, after all, such an outcome is too uncertain.
Moreover, the farther the distance, the more difficult it is to detect and intercept the SS-defense system.
The reason why the altitude is 100 to 10 kilometers has many advantages.
The asteroid was broken up at an altitude of 100 kilometers, and only a small part of its wreckage was re-entered into space, and the vast majority of the wreckage landed on the Tamu Gobi.
In this way, even if the interception fails, the consequences are predictable.
"I think so too." Fan Xiaoming smiled and said, "I thought that the SS-defense system would not shine until a long time later, but I was expecting the two asteroids to collide, but I didn't expect it to come so early." ”
"Who would have thought that!" Su Zhe sighed.
"Then let's get back to the email!" Fan Xiaoming said seriously.
Su Zhe smiled and nodded.
The two tapped back to the email with a keyboard.
Several people looking around looked at each other.
Soon! The two replied to the email.
Fan Xiaoming put away his laptop and said with emotion: "I have a good show tonight!" ”
"After tonight, the world will not be the same world it used to be." Su Zhe put his notebook in his computer bag.
Zhou Dashi and Zuo Dajun nodded seriously.
……
On the road, business minibuses are moving fast.
In the beginning, it was difficult to bump into a car on the road.
Nowadays, there are more and more cars on the road, and helicopters fly in the air from time to time.
At half past five in the afternoon, Su Zhe and his entourage passed through two checkpoints and arrived at the station in Tamu Town.
The first checkpoint was on the edge of the Tamu Gobi, where Su Zhe and his party made both paper and electronic registrations.
The second checkpoint is at the station in Tamu Town, where both paper and electronic registration is done.
The group changed to a patrol car in the parking lot of the station.
First, they went to the temporary accommodation, and after putting down their luggage, everyone went to the cafeteria.
On the way to the canteen, Zhou Dashi said: "The people in Tamu Gobi and the surrounding areas have been evacuated, and now there are more than 30,000 people left in Tamu Town, and everyone else has been evacuated. ”
"Thirty thousand!" Fan Xiaoming smiled and asked, "Why don't these people leave?" ”
"That ......" Zhou Dashi's face was a little strange, "These people all know that an asteroid is coming, and these people want to watch it closely." ”
"These people are masters who are not afraid of death!" Su Zhe said jokingly.
"It's not that I'm not afraid of death, it's that I know that the impact of the asteroid won't spread so far." Fan Xiaoming said with a smile.
When I came to the cafeteria, everyone could hear people around me discussing the asteroid impact when they were queuing up and eating.
It is clear that these people only know that there is an asteroid with a diameter of 110 meters that is going to hit the Earth, and nothing else.
The vast majority of these people are discussing the power of the asteroid's impact on Earth.
Some people worry that the asteroid impact will affect the Tamu Town station, while others talk about this as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Su Zhe and his entourage had dinner, and as soon as they came out of the cafeteria, they met more than 100 people from the principal, Xu Zhengping.
After the principal Xu Zhengping and more than 100 people finished dinner, everyone went to the large classroom of the resident office building together.
At this moment, there are more than 600 people sitting in the large classroom.
The vast majority of these people are teachers and students at the school.
Half of them came to visit the development and construction of the Tamgobi, and the remaining half were direct participants and managers in the development and construction of the Tamgobi.
Principal Xu Zhengping stood on the podium and talked about the cause and effect of the incident.
In fact, everyone knows what is going on.
Even if I didn't know it at first, I know it now.
Since 5 p.m., the relevant media have begun to follow and report on the asteroid impact.
The discussion of the asteroid impact on the Internet has also been liberalized.
However, in the relevant reports, the size of the asteroid, when it hit, the location of the impact, and the power of the impact.
And there are authoritative media who report on the whole process of the Tamu Gobi related personnel.
To sum up, this asteroid impact is within a controllable range, and everything is ready to reassure everyone.
At the same time, many media are vigorously promoting how to protect themselves, how to deal with emergencies, and so on.
With such an open and transparent report, everyone no longer has a bad mood, and many people are even clamoring to get close to the Tamu Gobi to watch.
People who are able to do so have a full set of equipment ready in order to record this crucial moment.
None of the reports mentioned the interception.
After the principal Xu Zhengping finished talking about the cause and effect, he asked everyone to confirm the evacuation of the Tamu Gobi personnel.
At this time, the big screen in the big classroom was playing the live broadcast of authoritative media.
In the background of the live stream is a clearly visible asteroid flying rapidly in the starry sky.
In the picture, a beautiful female presenter is asking two experts.
In the large classroom, half of the people were busy tracking the evacuation of the Tamu Gobi personnel, and half of the people were quietly watching the live broadcast.
Time passed minute by minute, and the time came to half past nine in the evening.
All the information was put together, and it was determined that all personnel had been evacuated from the Tamu Gobi.
After confirming, Xu Zhengping stood on the podium and said with a smile on his face: "Okay! Now that all the personnel have been evacuated, we are relieved...... Next, everyone is free to move, by the way, the asteroid impact will start in a while, everyone be careful when watching, don't get together. ”
After Xu Zhengping finished doing it, everyone in the big classroom began to leave the big classroom in an orderly manner.
Eventually, there were only a few people left in the large classroom who knew about Project Xuanwu and the SS-Defense system.
These people surrounded Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming. Ask the East and the West.
After receiving affirmative answers from Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming, everyone left happily, shouting to find the best position to watch the whole process of the impact.
Su Zhe, Fan Xiaoming, Zuo Dajun, and five assistants were led by Zhou Dashi to a place to watch.
The Tamu town station faces the outermost dry ditch on the Gobi side of Tamu.
Su Zhe and his party stood in a one-person deep dry ditch.
Zhou Dashi said with a smile on his face: "If there is a case, we will have some protection if we hide in the dry ditch, right?" ”
In an instant, everyone laughed.
Of course, it is not only Zhou Dashi who thinks of this good place, many people think of it.
Although this dry ditch is five kilometers long, there are many people!
In the end, it was thought that the interference would disperse the crowd and ensure that the density of people would not be too large.
After the personnel dispersed, it was also convenient for Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming.
The two of them, armed with their own laptops, tracked the asteroid in real time through the SS-Defense system.
Instead of watching the live stream like everyone else.
At this moment, the surroundings were pitch black, and the bright moon and stars in the sky were unusually conspicuous.
Fan Xiaoming looked up at the sky and said with a smile: "The universe is so big, but the human race is still on the earth, and if you say something unpleasant, if there is a super catastrophe, the human race is likely to be wiped out." ”
"Get out of the earth and develop the solar system." Zong Lanyue shouted.
"Build the Pennya Space City and explore Proxima Centauri." Liu Fen then shouted.
“……”
When Su Zhe listened to these people's shouts, his mobile phone rang.
It was Ning Qiaoqiao who called.
Ask him if he is in a safe place and if he has left the Tamu Gobi.
Later, the two talked about the SS-Defense system's plan to intercept the asteroid.
After ending the call with Ning Qiaoqiao, I heard Fan Xiaoming and the others chatting together.
After listening for a while, I realized that most of the world is now paying attention to this asteroid impact event.
Now, the Internet at home and abroad is very lively.
"Such a high level of attention." Fan Xiaoming smiled, "I estimate that after this asteroid impact event, many people will not be able to sleep. ”
"Whether we can sleep or not has little to do with us." Su Zhe said indifferently, "To be honest, there is no need to roll up on the earth if there are conditions. ”
"Indeed!" Fan Xiaoming smiled and nodded, "The goal of our Nine Heavens Research Center from the beginning is to be extraterrestrial, with endless energy and endless resources......"
……
Time passed minute by minute, and the time came to eleven o'clock at night.
The vast majority of people around the globe do so online, or through professional devices.
Su Zhe and his party also stopped discussing it.
Either you look at an asteroid that is rapidly approaching Earth on a laptop screen, or you look up at the endless night sky.
At this moment, time seems to slow down.
Five minutes passed, and the time came to eleven and fifty.
Suddenly, Fan Xiaoming smiled and said: "You don't have to be so nervous, we have the SS-defense system, there will be nothing, everyone relax, just watch a fireworks show." ”
"That's right! Right! We're watching a fireworks show! Zhou Dashi said nervously.
