Chapter 208: The Spaceship of Exploration
(Not modified, please ...... later) )
To save time,
Yang Meng compiled a list of the questions he wanted to ask,
deposited to Xiao Yin,
Let Xiao Yin ask questions in the order in which
And he's ready to continue to sleep,
Although he really wanted to get some key information from Cai Zhaoxin,
But the question is,
Cai Zhaoxin's reaction speed is too slow,
It is a complete waste of time to make him wait in this situation,
He can only entrust Xiao Yin to obtain information from the consciousness energy body, and organize and summarize it.
After a while, he will be able to get more complete information.
Instead of reading fragmented information that is incomprehensible.
"It's been long enough to wake up this time, and it's time to continue sleeping!"
Yang Meng looked out of the porthole, the quiet universe, and knew very well in his heart that as he got closer and closer to the solar system,
The time for me to sleep peacefully is getting shorter and shorter.
But even so,
He's still going to sleep,
Now he is 5.7 light-years from the solar system.
It would take about 30 years to travel at 20% of the speed of light at such a distance.
And that's not counting the time it takes to accelerate and decelerate.
Yang Meng didn't have much life to squander like this.
Since you have to decide to go to hibernation,
Yang Meng didn't care about other things, but began to debug the sleeping cabin and his own physical state.
And as we get closer and closer to the solar system,
Some of the passive detection devices on the spacecraft were also turned on,
When something else approaches the ship,
He can also be woken up from his sleep in time.
In this way, in preparation,
Another 73 hours passed,
During this period, Xiao Yin's got some fragmented information from Cai Zhaoxin.
But alas,
Still didn't know the situation of the solar system from Cai Zhaoxin,
Seeing this situation, Yang Meng was not waiting,
Straight into the process of hibernation.
……
In the universe, if there is no reference, it is impossible to know the state of the passage of time.
Yang Meng, who is also in the dormant cabin, can't know how long he has experienced.
As long as the brighter and brighter yellow star in front of the ship will indicate,
Yang Meng's spaceship is moving in one direction,
"The requirements for emergency wake-up have been met,
Waking Hugh ......"
The screen on the hibernation pod suddenly flickered,
With a burst of data jumping,
Three minutes later,
The silver-white hibernation pod slowly opened,
The man in the cabin sat up:
"How long has it been dormant this time?"
Yang Meng, who was regaining consciousness, subconsciously asked this question,
And when he noticed the flickering screen on the side, he suddenly became energetic:
"It's an emergency wake up again!"
"Xiao Yin, what problem did you encounter this time?"
Hearing Yang Meng's question, Xiao Yin immediately responded:
"According to the prompt you set before you hibernated, the rescue probe has arrived near the wrecked spacecraft and has sent back the detection data!"
"Hmm!"
Yang Meng in the hibernation capsule that is leaving,
Hearing such a reply, regardless of the physical condition, immediately check the situation of the rescue detector.
First he noticed the time of receipt of the message,
"This time it has been dormant for nine years, and the spacecraft has traveled exactly 1.7 light-years!"
"That means I'm only 4 light-years away from the solar system at this point!"
Yang Meng paid a little attention to the sleep time and flight distance,
So the rest of the focus is on the detection data.
Although it took nine years for the rescue device to reach the wrecked spacecraft,
But for Yang Meng, slowing down from 20% of the speed of light to landing on the wrecked spaceship,
Nine years is fast enough,
After all, the wrecked spaceship is not stationary,
Rather, it drifts in one direction at a speed of 78 kilometers per second.
In this case,
The rescue probe wants to get close to this spaceship,
In addition to slowing down,
And constantly adjust the track,
This is the very demanding space technology.
Fortunately, for human beings in this era, such a situation is not a complicated situation.
Therefore, under intelligent control,
The rescue probe still arrived at its target point very smoothly.
"It's a pity that it's far away from the wrecked spacecraft, and it is impossible to control the detection process in real time!"
Yang Meng put on his clothes again and again, and checked the data transmitted by the rescue detector again.
Because the rescue probe is not passing by the wrecked spacecraft, but getting closer little by little,
So the image sent back on,
See the situation of the wrecked spaceship more clearly,
With the searchlight on the rescue probe turned on,
Yang Meng can finally see the spaceship in the optical state with the naked eye this time,
And not like before,
Some simple temperature color distribution maps can only be seen by infrared detection.
When the searchlight shines on this ship,
You can see that this is a silver-gray spaceship,
It's just that as the searchlight swept across the silvery gray surface of the spaceship,
It's a pity that you can clearly see that there are some obvious holes on it,
These holes are basically the same size, and they are very regular.
Seeing this situation,
Yang Meng remembered that nine years ago, Xiaoguang had analyzed that the spaceship might have been attacked by ballistic weapons.
He was originally skeptical of such an analysis.
But now I see the image data sent back by the rescue detector,
This suspicion has completely disappeared,
"I don't know why this ship is fighting!"
With such questions, Yang Meng continued to check the exploration process of the rescue probe,
Because the rescue detector is not remotely controlled by Yang Meng,
Instead, under the control of the intelligent program it carries, it carries out the task.
Therefore, in Yang Meng's eyes, the next action of the rescue detector was very ink.
This rescue detector,
First, it flew around the wrecked spaceship a few times,
After making sure that there are no distractors around,
before the execution of the entry procedure begins,
But it is also the process of such an ink of the rescue procedure,
let Yang Meng see the appearance of the entire spaceship,
If you remove the bullet holes on the outside of the spacecraft, just from the external structure,
His appearance was superior to that of the Boundless Orient he piloted,
Whether it is the streamlined structure of its appearance,
It's still a one-piece composition, and you can't see the patchwork of the cabin,
Yang Meng had to sigh:
"It can also be seen that in the hundred years since I left the earth, human shipbuilding technology has improved a lot.
】
On this spaceship, there are very few traces of similar space stations! ”
Thinking of this, Yang Meng sighed silently:
"The only pity is that I didn't find the external logo of this spaceship, and I couldn't determine the name of this spaceship.
From this point of view,
And it can only be determined from the inside! ”
When Yang Meng thought of this,
The images sent back by the rescue probe also stopped the orbiting exploration of the spacecraft,
It's the way to get into the spaceship,
Fortunately, the process of entering the exploration is not as troublesome as the previous circumambulation exploration.
Because there is a big hole in front of this wrecked spaceship,
The intelligent program on the rescue detector naturally detected this big hole,
After a certain logical judgment,
The rescue probe sent a miniature probe into the spacecraft through this large hole.
With the action of the miniature detector,
Yang Meng shifted his perspective to the miniature detector,
As the perspective shifted, a pitch-black picture appeared in front of his eyes,
Even if the detector turns on the searchlight,
The environment inside is still a little dim,
It seems that some floating dust exists in the broken hole,
And Yang Meng, who saw the situation behind the cave, frowned slightly:
"Looks like there's an explosion here!"
As Yang Meng, who has been 1.6 light-years away from the wrecked spacecraft,
Naturally, it is impossible for him to command the rescue probe,
can only let Xiao Yin analyze the data transmitted back by the rescue detector,
And after Xiao Yin's analysis, it really verified his idea,
The big hole in front of the wrecked spaceship has a high probability that it was caused by some kind of explosion.
Besides
Xiao Yin analyzed a bad result through the data sent back,
That's the area where the explosion was, and it's likely where the ship's command deck was located.
"This is a straight shot,
It seems that the battle experienced by this spaceship is even more dangerous than imagined! ”
Because of the presence of the explosion,
A large number of equipment has been destroyed,
More importantly, there was a violent burning around the explosion,
This makes it impossible for a lot of equipment to be retained,
"It was burned!"
Seeing this situation, Yang Meng also felt a little surprised,
After all, the environment in the universe is not the same as on the earth.
As a vacuum environment, it is not easy for the universe to achieve the conditions for combustion.
And it is even more complicated to keep a spaceship burning and burn a lot of equipment.
The cabin shown in the image,
After Xiao Yin's analysis, it was found that not only had burning occurred here,
And it's still a long time to burn.
Seeing this situation, Yang Meng thought about it for a while and thought of a possibility:
"Could it be that there are human forces that have developed an armor-piercing incendiary bomb to deal with the space environment!"
When this thought appeared in Yang Meng's heart, he was a little uneasy,
After all, the research and development of weapons is a systematic project,
The existence of space armor-piercing incendiary bombs means that human forces have also studied defense systems against such weapons.
And having studied weapons, naturally, it is also for the sake of fighting,
This further shows that mankind's space weapons have made great progress in the hundred years since he left the solar system.
Not to mention other unknown weapons,
It's such an armor-piercing incendiary bomb that fired at his ship.
Yang Meng didn't know if his spaceship could resist it.
Thinking of this, Yang Meng was more cautious about the next process of returning to the earth.
After suppressing the uneasiness in my heart,
Yang Meng's attention returned to the miniature detector again,
Because of the explosion and burning,
The miniature detectors could not find any device that could be detected here,
can only continue to go deeper,
Soon, the miniature detector found a broken passage in this piece of ruins.
Along this passage,
The probe continued to move deeper into the interior of the spacecraft,
Because of the explosion, the whole passage was dark.
There is no other light source except the detector's own light.
Accompanied by a faint drift of particulate matter in the channel,
A dead and dark scene appeared in front of Yang Meng,
"Is there really life on such a ship?"
Yang Meng glanced at the data on the rescue probe,
In the case of such proximity,
The rescue detector can clearly receive the distress signal inside the spacecraft.
It's just that this distress signal is just a very simple three-long-period and two-short-period electromagnetic signal.
In the face of such a simple universal distress signal,
Yang Meng couldn't confirm that it was a living form that sent out the signal inside.
Or some devices automatically broadcast a distress signal to the outside,
You must know that there are many devices that automatically broadcast distress signals.
Nine years ago, when Yang Meng used the probe to sweep over the wrecked spacecraft, he also sent some messages to the inside and outside.
Unfortunately,
Until now, Yang Meng has not received a reply.
"Speaking of which, this spaceship has experienced battles, and this situation of broadcasting a distress signal will reveal its location,
The person piloting the spaceship should take this situation into account,
I don't know, why is this happening? ”
While thinking about some questions in his heart, Yang Meng turned his perspective back to the miniature detector.
With the continuous deepening of miniature detectors,
Yang Meng can clearly observe,
The blackening of the passage is fading.
"Looks like we'll be able to enter a more normal area soon!"
Just when Yang Meng thought so,
The miniature detector suddenly stopped,
There's a hatch in front of the miniature detector,
And seeing the hatch in the image, Yang Meng's expression changed a little,
In this passage where the traces of smoke and fire are obvious,
This hatch is clean to the outside,
Under the light of the searchlight, with a silvery-white luster,
Looking at the hatch without any traces of smoke,
Yang Meng suddenly thought of a possibility,
"This hatch was opened and cleaned after the explosion of the fire.
Only then will there be no burn marks! ”
When some speculations appeared in Yang Meng's heart,
The miniature detector only paused slightly,
Under the control of the artificial intelligence of the rescue detection device, he began to try to open the hatch.
Seeing that the rescue probe gave such a decisive order,
Yang Meng, who came back to his senses, shook his head silently,
If he had operated the miniature detector instead, he would not have given such an order.
pity
This miniature detector is not controlled by him.
And the thing about probing has been happening for more than a year,
It's just that because of the communication distance, he just received the image data.
Faced with this situation,
He could only watch what the tiny probe did next.
After the analysis of the degree of intelligence,
For rescue purposes,
The miniature detector first used non-violent means to open the hatch,
After detection,
The miniature detector was found,
Control panel next to the hatch,
Compared to the blackened bulkhead, the control panel is also very clean.
Faced with this situation,
Yang Meng was even more convinced that after the explosion,
There are still survivors on this ship,
These survivors have done some maintenance on the ship,
As for whether these survivors are still alive now, why not further repair the spaceship,
Yang Meng also doesn't know,
He could only wait for the tiny probe to open the hatch to know what was inside
