Planet Escape

While the whole country fell silent, the spaceflight control center in Tangjialing, northwest of Beijing, was bustling with activity. It was originally the command center responsible for the command and dispatch, flight control, analysis and calculation, data processing and confidence exchange of the national manned spaceflight project. At this time, it was the national headquarters for defense against asteroid impacts.

At this time, all the monitoring information of the country's outer space sky is collected here, and then the orbit of the meteorite that is most harmful to the country is calculated, and then the information is transmitted to the ballistic launch base here, and the Second Artillery Force intercepts it.

"Mr. Jiang, the last detection of all meteorites has been summarized, and the calculation results are the same as last time. The orbit of the large meteorite marked X4231 has been calculated. It entered the atmosphere at an angle of 32 degrees from the northeast direction, and the speed It is 18 kilometers per second, and the impact site is 437 kilometers north of Lake Baikal, and the estimated impact force is equivalent to the power of a 120 million-ton explosion." A young researcher reported to Jiang Zonggonghui.

"Continue to follow up and monitor. If it changes its rules, report it as soon as possible." Chief Engineer Jiang nodded.

Mr. Jiang rubbed the center of his eyebrows, cheered up and continued to work. He only rested for 6 hours in three days. Although he is still young, less than 50 years old, he is the oldest group of people in this command hall. Compared with those young people in their twenties and thirties, his energy is obviously insufficient.

Although he doesn't need to calculate the specific trajectory of the meteorite, but he has to take care of the overall situation and report to the higher authorities, so he expends no less energy than those young people.

"Ringlingling..." At this time, the red phone on Mr. Jiang's desk rang, and he quickly picked it up: "Hello...Okay, I'll be right over. Xiao Liu, if you have any questions, call the command room right away. go out for a while."

After a while, Mr. Jiang came to command a room upstairs in the hall that was guarded by a guard. After showing his certificate, he opened the door and went in.

Several faces in the room that can be seen on the news are in the room, and there are also several old generals. If you observe carefully, you will find that all of these people present have bloodshot eyes, and the fatigue in their eyes cannot be concealed.

"Xiao Jiang, what is the situation we are facing now? Have you counted the number of meteorites that have fallen into our territory? Has the orbital technology of those meteorites that threaten us and need to be intercepted come out?" Chief No. 1 asked.

"It has been calculated that there are more than 34,000 meteorites that have landed on our land. In fact, more than 28,000 meteorites will burn up in the atmosphere, and the remaining more than 6,000 meteorites will successfully pass through. atmosphere.

And these more than 6,000 meteorites may break down into tens of thousands of small meteorites to impact the ground. Among them, 62 meteorites need to be intercepted. The interception location is outside the atmosphere, and we have already calculated the orbit.

However, there is another meteorite named X4231 that needs attention. Its diameter is 43 meters, and the impact site is 437 kilometers north of Lake Baikal in southern Russia. Although the impact site of this meteorite is not on our land, if Russia intercepts it, it may change its orbit, and the biggest possibility is that it will be crushed and large fragments will pass through the atmosphere.

As for the final landing point, it is impossible to judge now. After Mr. Jiang finished speaking, he distributed the information in his hand to everyone in turn.

After a while, Chief No. 1 raised his head after reading the information, looked at everyone and said, "I will communicate with Russia, and there are still three hours before the meteorite approaches the interception site. Jiang, you have to cooperate with several people, and you must intercept those meteorites that threaten our country with one hit.

If you make the slightest mistake, it may cause, tens of thousands of casualties, this is not allowed, I know it is difficult. But if there is no difficulty, you must go up, and if you have difficulties, you must go up to overcome them, and you must ensure that the interception is successful. "

"Guaranteed to complete the task." Several veteran generals and Mr. Jiang replied at the same time.

"Okay, I authorize the host computer of the spaceflight control center to connect to the Second Artillery Network, and the two sides exchange signals in real time. All missile bases of the Second Artillery Force enter the pre-launch state for final inspection."

At 3:10 p.m., alarms sounded in the Taihang Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, Daxing'an Mountains and many other mountain ranges. Missile silos suddenly appeared in the depths of the mountains, and many secret bases that only existed in paper files began to emerge.

"Little bastards, cheer me up, calculate the ballistic trajectory again, and simulate an interception. What you are about to attack is not a meteorite, but a nuclear warhead. The power of the explosion when it hits the ground is no less powerful than a nuclear bomb. It also carries radiation, so don't block it from meteorites to intercept it.

Didn't you often say that you were underappreciated in your talent? Every one of the top students with a doctorate or master's degree, in this valley after graduation, may never have a chance for you to make a move in your life. You even brag about the 18 sub-warheads in the United States. Intercontinental ballistic missiles can be intercepted.

Now you are not allowed to intercept eighteen sub-warheads, you only need to intercept one warhead, if you can't even stop this, pack up and leave, there will be no nerds who can only brag about b here. "

In the command hall of a secret base, a general in military uniform but with hair like a bird's nest yelled at everyone on the console. Because smoking is not allowed here, the butt of the cigarette in his mouth was almost torn by him.

A group of young people didn't care how their chief scolded them. They lowered their heads and gritted their teeth and stared at the screen. Their hands were flying on the keyboard, and a crackling sound echoed throughout the hall. The main computer room next to the command room, several air conditioners have been turned on to the maximum, but the temperature of the computer room is still rising.

As time passed bit by bit, even though the air conditioner was turned on in the command room, the sweat on everyone's faces still dripped out unconsciously.

At 4:30, all missile fuel was injected, and the personnel in the silo were evacuated.

At 5:20, all missile launch passwords are released, and the launch preparation state is entered, and the countdown to 15 minutes before launch begins.

At 5:45, dozens of intercontinental ballistic missiles loaded with nuclear warheads were launched into the air.

At this time, the whole country was watching this scene through live TV. Several leaders also appeared in the lobby of the Beijing Aerospace Flight Control Center. is the distance between the two sides.

As the dotted line gets shorter, the number of digits in the center decreases until it reaches zero. Everyone in the whole country was silent, waiting for the result of the interception.

"Observe the meteorites immediately, the number of technical meteorites and the falling trajectory, quickly." Chief Engineer Jiang shouted directly, regardless of whether those people were in the command hall or not.

Since the interception location is 21,000 kilometers outside the atmosphere, they still have a chance to intercept. The only problem is to calculate the speed. After a minute, the new calculation result came out.

The good news is that all the meteorites they intercepted were hit. The bad news is that although the large meteorite named X4231 was hit by the Russian side, it was divided into three parts, one of which was flying towards our country. It is the junction of Inner Mongolia and Shaanxi.

"Intercept again, even if it cannot be intercepted, we must change the direction of its impact." Chief No. 1 said loudly.

Soon this order was sent to the secret base for them to intercept it.

"Little bastards, your chance has come, shoot it down for me immediately."

"Time is running out, and the chance of intercepting it head-on is very small. Even if it is intercepted, it can only be intercepted in the atmosphere, which is more harmful."

As soon as these words came out, the entire command room suddenly became silent, and the general's cigarette also dropped.

"Is there no other way?"

"The only way is to use orbit-changing technology, first launch and then calculate the orbit, and then change orbit to intercept it."

"...Damn it, it's done, launch it right away, don't let me off the hook." The general was stunned for three seconds, then cursed and roared.

Two orbital lines appeared on the big screen of the Beijing Aerospace Flight Control Center at once, but even a fool would know that the two orbital lines would never meet, and the crookedness was too obvious. Seeing this situation, the people in the hall were dumbfounded, and the people in front of the TV series were dumbfounded.

It was fine just now, and the hit rate was still 100%. Why did it go to grandma's house this time? This is too outrageous.

But not long after, the ballistic trajectory on the screen obviously began to change, and the two trajectory lines began to overlap. Now everyone let go of what they just mentioned, and it turns out that it can still be reddish purple. But before everyone put it down, the two orbital lines that had just overlapped separated again.

Fuck me, what kind of trouble is this going to be? The hearts that everyone had just let go lifted up again.

Then soon, the orbital line changed again, the orbital line that was rising just now lowered again, and the two orbital lines overlapped again. Then you don't see the trajectory of the missile start to fluctuate, and draw an 'S' shape on the trajectory of the meteorite.

Seeing this situation, people all over the country can't wait to drag out the person who overcame the missile and shoot him for an hour. This is too hated.

"Liu Mingchuan, what the hell are you doing?" The general yelled at a young man who was manipulating a missile. If the other man was not manipulating a missile, he would have killed him immediately.

"I don't want to either, the missile's helical positioner is out of order, and there is no way to correct the orbit..." Liu Mingchuan was also wronged, and he was not to blame for this matter at all.

No matter how the missile flew, a few minutes later, when it approached the meteorite, due to too much error, it missed at all and had to be detonated manually.

A minute later, the meteorite's landing point was calculated again, and it was found that the target had left China, but was replaced by Lake Baikal. Seeing this situation, the people of the whole country breathed a sigh of relief.

But at this time, a new situation appeared again. The meteorites intercepted by other countries were blasted out of the predetermined orbit by the power of the nuclear bomb explosion, and many meteorites hit China. But at this time, there is no time to intercept.

"Damn, it's over, and you still bring something like this, it's a scam." Zhao Ming suddenly yelled while watching TV in the living room.

Xiang Gan ignored him, but came to the balcony on the top floor with a bottle of super nutrient solution. Looking at the dazzling meteor shower in the sky, he knew that the time for evolution was coming.
