Chapter 13: Landing meteorite
5 min read1,306 words
The success of the Federation team greatly boosted the morale of the Yan Guo
team, and also rejoiced the six billion people who were looking forward to
Blue Star. Even Chen Xin was full of confidence in the success of this rescue
operation.
After all, the federal people have completed the mission with their lives, and
the rescue operation has completed one-third. As long as the next mission of
the Yan Guo team is successfully completed, the meteorite will be pushed out
of the impact orbit, and the Blue Star will be impacted, causing the end of
the world crisis. Will be lifted.
At this time, everyone in the world has put aside what they are doing, staring
closely at the TV screen, paying attention to the people who are saving the
Blue Star 380,000 kilometers away.
At this time, the Yan Guo team was encouraged by the success of the Federation
team, and the Yan Guo spacecraft was also driving towards the meteorite while
the debris flow on the surface of the meteorite was blown away by the blasting
nuclear bomb.
Perhaps because of the change in the volume of the meteorite, or the absence
of interference from the EMP shock wave formed by the explosion of the nuclear
bomb, the Yan Guo team did not interrupt the communication with the Blue Star
even though the signal was not good when it was approaching the meteorite.
Thanks to this, six billion people around the world can clearly see the Yan
Guo team approaching the surface of the meteorite through the cameras
installed on the Yan Guo spacecraft, watching the meteorite gradually change
from a large mountain in the universe to the entire land. process.
Chen Xin was also shocked by the scene on the screen, which is definitely not
a scene that can be easily seen on the blue star.
The Yanguo spacecraft is equipped with a wide-angle camera, so the captured
images are wider than ordinary cameras, and the impact of the images displayed
at this time is also more shocking.
The surface of meteorite is uneven, and there are some pits formed by the
impact of debris on it, which looks like a piece of burnt cake.
But I am afraid that no one in the world will have an appetite for this cake,
because it is too big.
Even though they were broken by the Federalists and split into two pieces,
these two meteorites still have a volume of several kilometers in diameter. As
the spacecraft approaches, watch them grow bigger in sight until they fill the
whole The line of sight, that kind of visual impact is indescribable and
indescribable.
If you have to make an analogy, it's the feeling that a rock the size of the
Himalayas fell from the sky, and it was slammed down right on your forehead.
Looking at the huge meteorite, Chen Xin couldn't help thinking in his heart,
if such a big meteorite really hits the blue star, can human beings really
survive?
I dug a refuge, prepared food and water, and considered all aspects, but...
there was a fatal loophole that Chen Xin could not deal with with all these
preparations.
That was when the meteorite hit him, he was really lucky to survive, or he was
even more lucky, and the meteorite hit his head.
Although a meteorite with a diameter of several kilometers is not as powerful
as its original diameter of more than ten kilometers, if it falls within Asia,
Chen Xin can say with certainty that his chances of surviving are slim.
At this moment, looking at the huge meteorite rolling in, he panicked and
scared.
Originally faced with the disaster of a meteorite hitting the blue star, as a
web writer who usually has a black hole above his neck, this kind of thing is
not even worth mentioning in his novels. This also caused Chen Xin to face
this disaster. Insufficient sense of crisis.
Although he tried his best to prepare for various disaster response measures,
he more leisurely digs shelters, reserves supplies, and is ready to survive
the doomsday...
But he does not have a precise concept of the meteorite attack.
It’s like everyone knows that tigers are dangerous, but how dangerous tigers
are. Before they see people bitten to death by tigers, no one thinks that the
one in the zoo’s cage is fat and can’t walk. That is, the limp creatures like
big cats can eat people.
People always realize the terrible danger only after encountering danger.
Chen Xin is the same. He had no idea about meteorites before, so he was able
to calmly respond to this kind of life and death crisis, but now he was
shocked when he saw how big the huge meteorite was.
was not only frightened, but Chen Xin was also truly frightened. He was afraid
that he would really die.
Just by watching the live TV on Blue Star, you can feel such a strong impact
and the pressure brought by this extremely impactful picture. It is
conceivable that the astronaut facing the meteorite in space at this time.
What kind of pressure do we have to endure?
But at this time on the Yanguo spacecraft, the astronauts from Yanguo did not
fear the difficulties and dangers. While withstanding the pressure, they
shouldered the lives and deaths of six billion people around the world, flying
the spacecraft toward the meteorite. .
Previously, I saw that two space shuttles of the Federal team used nuclear
bombs to blast the debris stream and forcefully land on the surface of the
meteorite. It seemed that it was not difficult. But when the Yanguo astronauts
drove the spacecraft toward the meteorite by themselves. At the time, I
realized how difficult it is.
Although the impact caused by the nuclear bomb blows away the debris flow,
this does not mean that it is not dangerous to land on the surface of the
meteorite.
Because there are still some rubbles that have not been blown away, or blown
not enough open, in the event of a collision, the hull of the ship will be
damaged, and the ship will be destroyed.
Fortunately, the spacecraft manufactured by Yanguo is more flexible than the
federal space shuttle. The astronauts have also done relevant simulation
exercises before departure. Therefore, with the astronauts’ superb driving
skills, the Yanguo spacecraft is still smooth. It landed on the surface of the
meteorite, only a layer of paint was scraped off by the debris, several
antennas were broken, and there was no major damage.
Landing on the surface of the meteorite is only the first step. Next, the
Yanguo astronauts will have to go out of the cabin, and fix the main part of
the spacecraft-the special heavy propeller and fuel tank on the surface of the
meteorite, and then let it Do work on the meteorite and push it to change
orbit.
Because the meteorite is to be promoted, the landing location of the Yanguo
spacecraft has also been precisely calculated to ensure that the thruster
installation point is a suitable force point. Otherwise, even if the thruster
can propel the meteorite, the thrust direction is the same as expected. If the
direction is different, then all this is in vain.
Fortunately, everything seems to be blessed by the gods. Although the
Federation team lost a space shuttle, so far, all the steps of the rescue
operation are proceeding as planned. Even the Yan Guo team’s spacecraft also
landed on In the ideal location.
As long as the astronauts fix it on the surface of the meteorite, they can use
the thrust of the thruster and the gravity of the moon to push the meteorite
away from the impact orbit, so that the blue star can avoid the doomsday
crisis.
