Interstellar Industrial Age

In the vast void of the solar system, there is eternal loneliness and coldness, just like the years ago hundreds of millions of years ago, without a trace of waves and changes.

In the empty void, the Qinglong spacecraft is like a falcon that captures its prey, dragging its prey in the void and moving closer to the earth at a speed of 50 kilometers per second.

The departure time is October 2028. At this time, more than a month has passed. If you want to return to Earth, it will take more than a month of flight.

Time passed slowly, and the Qinglong spacecraft was getting closer and closer to the earth. Originally, it was impossible to see the earth with the naked eye in space.

However, after more than 20 days, everyone found the figure of the earth in the starry sky again, and gradually they were able to see the earth with the naked eye, and slowly the earth was in the field of vision, and it gradually became larger day by day.

On the Qinglong spacecraft, Long Zhankong and Huang Zhibin take the trouble to calculate the time and place where the two meet again and again every day to ensure that there will be no problems. On Earth, the scientists of Galaxy Technology Group also have no time to spare. Now, quantum computers are performing analog calculations every day.

You must know that although the diameter of this asteroid is only about 1000, and the mass is only 150 million tons, this mass and size can only be regarded as a little dust compared to the earth.

But for human beings, once the operation error makes it fall to the earth, it can definitely produce terrifying and destructive power that will destroy the world. At that time, it may have to be destroyed. In vain.

On the other hand, the first mining of asteroids in human history is also missing. In fact, it is impossible to hide it. The Qinglong has such a huge body, and it has attracted global attention since its construction.

With the development of the interstellar space age, all countries have established huge cosmic astronomical research institutions in space. The astronomical telescopes equipped are not known to be much more powerful than the previous Hubble, and you can easily find dragging small Planet's Azure Dragon spacecraft.

The eyes of the world are looking into space, and as time goes by, various reports about this asteroid are emerging one after another.

The Qinglong, the largest spacecraft in human history built by Galaxy Technology Group, set off for the asteroid belt in October. After nearly three months, it finally returned to Earth again.

The Qinglong spacecraft did not go to the asteroid belt for sightseeing. It hauled back an asteroid. According to the relevant data released by Galaxy Technology Group, the mass of this asteroid reached 150 million tons, and this small Planets are basically made of iron. According to the current development of space, the value of this asteroid will exceed 400 billion Chinese dollars.

At the same time, this also marks that human history has once again taken a big step forward. The place where we obtain resources is not limited to the moon near the earth, but can request resources from the entire solar system, and it also marks that human beings have truly entered space. era.

Time magazine's report is very detailed, citing a lot of scientific data, and its attitude is relatively neutral, and it is happy for the progress of mankind.

As for other Western news media, etc., it is more of a concern.

Currently in space, a large asteroid with a diameter of more than 1,000 meters and a mass of nearly 150 million tons is hitting the earth. Once it collides with the earth, its power is comparable to that of a million Hiroshima atomic bombs. The extinction of all creatures on the entire earth is enough to completely destroy the entire human civilization.

Once the earth is hit by this asteroid, it is very likely that we humans will be destroyed by the impact of this asteroid just like the dinosaurs hundreds of millions of years ago.

And this is not something that happened naturally. Everything is a technology company in China, Galaxy Technology Group. It is Galaxy Technology Group that pushed all this to happen.

Disregarding the safety of billions of human beings around the world, they recklessly went to the asteroid belt to drag asteroids to hit the earth, just to obtain the poor resources contained on asteroids.

At present, governments of various countries have jointly protested to Huaxia and reserved the right to use force to destroy asteroids. We formally protest to Huaxia and Galaxy Technology Group, and strictly prohibit anything that threatens the fundamental interests of all mankind.

There are a lot of reports like this. Western news media have expressed their concerns about this matter, demonizing it, believing that it is a stupid act that pushes human security into the abyss regardless of the interests of all mankind. Countless demonstrations and protests took place under the coverage of these news media.

Huaxia's embassies in various countries do not know how many rotten eggs, carrots, vegetables, as well as shoes, underwear, etc. have been attacked. There are a large number of people at the gates of the embassies of various countries expressing their anger and dissatisfaction.

Even the heads of state of various countries have called Huaxia to ask about the specific situation, whether it will affect the earth, and whether it will directly impact the earth. Some powerful countries and even the entire country are on high alert, in the event of an accident. , they will destroy asteroids in space.

Naturally, Huaxia guarantees again and again that there will be no problems. We have enough strength to deal with any situation that may occur. As for the destruction of asteroids, everyone will not bother. Once the situation changes, we Huaxia You will also respond immediately.

Just kidding, Huaxia will not foolishly say to let other countries destroy the asteroid, and finally dragged a high iron asteroid back from the asteroid belt, which is extremely important for promoting the further development of Huaxia into space. significance.

Want to build more space buildings, space farmland, space solar farms, space cities, space factories, want to build space fleets, etc., all these are inseparable from a large amount of steel, mining asteroid resources is absolutely necessary sooner or later As long as it succeeds this time, under the trend of huge interests, the power of China will surge up wildly, and there will be a steady stream of resources.

What space factories, space fleets, etc. are not a problem, you can build them if you want, and you no longer have to fear that other countries on earth will unite to put pressure on yourself.

The superiors of Huaxia are very clear about the stakes, so despite the increasing pressure from countries around the world and the growing wave of protests from all over the world, the superiors have insisted that they are under control. In China, asteroids will never have any impact on the earth. Please don't panic. We in China have the strength to face everything that may happen.

Today is different from the past. Today's Huaxia is not what it used to be. Apart from protesting, everyone can only protest, and they dare not take any practical actions.

As time passed, the Qinglong spacecraft dragged the asteroid closer and closer to the earth, and the whole earth became tense.

The same is true of Qin Yi. Just in case, Qin Yi also took out a powerful weapon from the technology tower. If there is an accident, he can destroy the asteroid as soon as possible.

After all, compared with the safety of the earth, this asteroid is nothing at all, Qin Yi dare not make a joke.

On January 7, 2029, almost all the eyes of the world were focused on space. The Qinglong of Galaxy Technology Group dragged the asteroid from the dark void. At this time, it was very close to the earth, and the telescope was already able to clearly see it. See the face of this asteroid.

In the space, Qin Yi, Liu Peiqiang, Lu Qingwei and other scientists from the Galaxy Science Research Institute are all here at this time. In addition, in the Tiangong Space City, many well-known scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the person in charge of the Chinese space field, and the Chinese military The person in charge and so on are all here, and everyone is waiting nervously.

The space-based weapon system set up in space is always in a state of attack. Once things are out of control, the upper side will also choose to destroy the asteroid as soon as possible.

"Calculate the probability of an asteroid being captured by Earth's gravity!"

Almost at the same time, the heads of all parties around the world responded to their own orders. The quantum computers on the Galaxy Technology Group side and the supercomputers on the side of the country began to run frantically, although they had not known calculations for a long time. How many times, but now I still take the trouble to confirm it again and again.

"The probability of being successfully captured by the earth's gravity is 99.999%, and the error rate is only one in 100,000."

Soon, the supercomputer calculated the data accurate to 3 decimal places. Now the distance between the two sides is very close, and everything is very simple to calculate.

"The weapon system is always ready."

Although the scientists have reported accurate data, the superiors still ordered the weapon system to be on standby at any time. This kind of thing is not a joke, and you must be careful and cautious.

On the other side, Qin Yi is also the same. The weapons taken out from the technology tower are under the control of the old man of the technology tower. Once the upper side fails to destroy the asteroid, Qin Yi will take action and destroy it. asteroid.

Time slowly came to 12 o'clock, and the second-generation anti-gravity engine on the Qinglong spacecraft had also started, and the ropes connecting the asteroid had collapsed tightly.

The natural reason for doing this is to be able to modify the trajectory and speed of the asteroid at any time, leaving enough leeway.

The asteroid and the earth are getting closer. In fact, according to the calculations of the scientists of Galaxy Technology Group, the asteroid and the earth will not meet directly at all, but have a taste of passing by, just because the mass of the earth is too large, The mass of the asteroid is too small.

So when the flight speed of the asteroid is not enough to get rid of the gravitational restraint of the earth, the asteroid will be captured by the earth's gravity and become a new satellite of the earth. At that time, it will be the meat on the cutting board, and it will be slaughtered by anyone.

There will be no such thing as the Western news media propaganda, the asteroid will collide with the earth head-on, directly destroying the earth's civilization. If there is an emergency, in fact, the asteroid and the earth can be completely wiped out. However, it will not have any impact on the earth at all.
