"Since you understand that you are a servant, you must have the consciousness of a servant and obey the master's arrangement, I will call you Alpha."
Looking at the robot in front of him that was exactly the same as Joyna, Lotsley was very entangled in his heart, he hoped that this beautiful AI was Joyna's appearance, so that the feeling of his sweetheart always being by his side could be experienced at all times.
He didn't want the beauty AI to be Joyna's appearance, after all, it was just a robot, not the real Joyna, which would make him feel disrespectful and blaspheme the goddess in his heart.
Somehow brain-dead engineer gave it the name Alfana, which made him feel even more insulting to Joyna.
Two different thoughts made him very conflicted, and he could only try to avoid calling out to this AI for something, so as to give himself a psychological self-comfort.
The beautiful AI smiled slyly, "Good master, from now on my name will be Alpha." Thank you host for giving me a new name. ”
The space shuttle is orbiting the Earth, orbiting the Earth once every two hours, and every hour it goes through the alternation of day and night, and from the porthole, the spacecraft is rapidly moving away from the Earth.
During the day, the earth is colorful, blue ocean, white ice and snow, gray clouds, green forests, and brown deserts...... The red one was like fire.
At night, the earth is pitch black, and only the metropolis shows its sporadic lights......
Rochly found a phenomenon that he was a little puzzled about. At this time, a meteor shower is erupting, and the sunny side of the earth is facing away from the direction of the meteor, and the meteorite fall cannot be observed.
The beautiful AI explained to him.
"This meteorite eruption was intermittent and not indiscriminate. Now the space shuttle is orbiting in the intermittent space of a meteor. If the timing is not right, the probability of the space shuttle hitting an extraterrestrial meteorite will be greatly increased during the flight around the earth, causing the plane to be destroyed and people to be killed, which is very dangerous. ”
Lotsley broke out in a cold sweat, as if the wisdom chip hadn't told him.
Seeing his body writhing and looking uncomfortable, the beautiful AI said that he could take off his spacesuit, let him stand up and walk around, and feel the space walking in a weightless state.
Unbuckling the seat belt, this bulky spacesuit Luxli feels like wearing a fat down jacket, and it is also fluttering along with himself, as the beautiful AI told him before, it is really as light as a feather. After taking off the spacesuit, Rochli really experienced what it means to be as light as a swallow.
After orbiting the Earth for 28 weeks, the space shuttle finally broke away from gravity and flew towards Proxima Centauri.
The space shuttle is currently in a state of autopilot, and the beautiful AI is loyal to her duty, sitting in the cockpit, staring at the electronic screen in front of her without blinking.
And Rochli floated around in the capsule, and he was experiencing the weightlessness of space to the fullest. This experience is very different from the experience hall, and you can change your posture from any angle in all directions. He gets naughty like a child and stands upside down to communicate face-to-face with the beautiful AI.
Occasionally, he leaned down on the porthole and looked out, and the endless abyss was daunting. Lotsley found that he couldn't look at the black universe for a long time, and he felt like he was close to a black hole, as if he would be swallowed by it at any moment, and the pleasure of the spatial experience just now disappeared in an instant.
He was just about to withdraw his gaze when an artificial satellite passed to the left of the shuttle. These satellites are doing an extraordinary contribution in the service of humanity. Just when he lamented the greatness of the cause of human scientific and technological progress, a meteorite flying quickly happened to collide with the satellite, and the satellite was broken into pieces in an instant.
Rochsley was taken aback, feeling that he had failed in his duty, that the mission of this trip was to intercept a meteorite that was about to cause damage to the earth, and that the satellite had been destroyed, and he felt that he had a responsibility that he could not shirk. Immediately put away his playfulness and give instructions to the beautiful AI, he wants to smash the flying meteorites to prevent them from destroying the artificial satellite again.
The beautiful AI's answer left him speechless.
"We can't do it! Even a meteorite the size of a soybean grain can smash a satellite. There are hundreds of millions of meteorites flying in space, and it is impossible to break them one by one. Our spacecraft carried 100,000 rounds of ammunition, which is a drop in the bucket against so many meteorite fragments. ”
Labors was not reconciled.
"It's one that can protect one!"
The beautiful AI is very patient with him.
"That being said, in fact, we can't protect any of them. Whether satellites will be hit by meteorites or not depends entirely on their luck. We have neither the parameters of the operation of global satellites, nor the trajectory equations of hundreds of millions of meteorites, and even if we had, we would not be able to accurately calculate the orbits in which they intersect for a split second. In other words, we can only play a real role in protecting the satellite by accurately destroying the meteorite, which will definitely hit the satellite, otherwise it will be a waste of electromagnetic artillery shells. ”
Lotsley was silent. They really can't protect thousands of artificial satellites, what they want to protect is the earth, the earth is safe and sound, the satellites can be rebuilt, the earth is finished, what is the use of leaving those satellites empty? Don't lose a big deal because of a small thing.
"What satellite was destroyed just now?"
"Communications satellites."
The beautiful AI didn't raise her head, her eyes were still staring at the electronic screen, carefully observing the situation in front of the spaceship.
"Communications satellites?"
The destruction of communication satellites will naturally affect communications on Earth, causing communication interruptions. It occurred to him that perhaps it was because of the communication loss that he had lost contact with Joyna, or that she had no internet access at all, neither being able to email him nor log in to the Dream Community.
He reached out and untied his glasses10 from the bulkhead. The reason why it is tied to the bulkhead is to prevent it from flying around. Rochly didn't wear it, but for the sake of safety. If he wears it, the bridge of his nose may be crushed and fractured during the take-off phase of the shuttle, which will make it even more difficult for him to breathe. If the lens breaks suddenly, it is possible to cut directly into his brain from his eyes.
Bring glasses10, open the email, and Joyna replied! But she didn't answer his previous question, leaving only one sentence, "Protect yourself, I miss you!" ”
With this inexplicable sentence, Lotsley was even more convinced that Joyna was in trouble, but it was definitely not because the network was interrupted and she couldn't get on the network, it should be that there was no time, this phrase seemed to be issued in a hurry. If she had time, she would definitely write more, not just that.
"You too, stay safe. What the hell happened to you? Are you okay now? ”
In Lotsley's opinion, Joyna's North American region may have caused significant damage to that area due to meteor showers, and Joyna had no time to contact him.
After sending out the email, Rochly went to browse the news, focusing on North America, there were tens of thousands of messages, all of which were disaster reports of meteor showers, but he couldn't be sure which one was related to Joyna.
He was a little frustrated, not knowing when Joyna would reply to his message.
