Start a Subspace

"The meteorite cracked!"

It was like a small piece of fur slowly falling off a cow.

Seeing this scene on the screen, everyone on the Ark broke out in cheers, joy and applause.

Because the quality of this piece of "fur" is 200% of the expected, it may be a full 200 million tons!

After the small meteorite was blasted by the nuclear bomb, it produced a lateral velocity, which changed the original direction of motion.

This is already the limit of what human weapons can do. With this lateral speed, it can just escape the engulfment of high-dimensional space.

"Sure enough, the direction of motion of the asteroid hasn't changed much."

There is excitement, but also regret. 200 million tons was more than expected, but not much.

After calming down, the people on the Ark are wondering whether they will encounter another meteorite in the future, and how much 200 million tons can do.

There are also people discussing whether to break the contract and launch an attack while the Yuyan is mining, and so on.

But in the end, reason prevailed, and the plan to break the contract was rejected.

The Ark chased after it, and flew again with the small meteorite that fell off.

At the same time, they stared at another spaceship.

The spaceship Yuyan No. 1 where the royal family is located is still flying slowly behind, as if there is no rush.

Waiting until the two spaceships were at a safe distance, they slowly caught up with the big meteorite and ran in front of it.

...

"They've mined quite a chunk, maybe one in six thousandth, not bad, and a good job."

The experts in Yuyan's spacecraft were also discussing excitedly with joy on their faces.

The atmosphere in the cabin is a bit weird and relaxed, even a feeling of singing in a KTV. Zhang Ran rubbed his temples, these experts...are they so relaxed?

A large group of people are enthusiastically discussing the results of the Ark's operation this time.

"What they're mining is just the surface of the asteroid, probably mostly ice."

"Yeah, the ice layer on the surface is too thick. Water resources are good, but it's all water, so it's not necessarily good. We lack too many substances."

Well... These experts are discussing various decisions of the Ark: the operational efficiency of the soldiers, the chosen blasting location, the blasting yield of the nuclear bomb, and so on.

Later, Zhang Ran also joined in and talked about it happily.

Analyzing from an objective point of view, this operation of the Ark is already impeccable!

It is almost the limit of what human beings can do at present!

Even if the soldiers from the Kunlun Mountains come here exactly once, they may not be able to do better. Maybe they will fail to explode, and the yield is too small to blow it down, or the yield is too large, and the small meteorite is directly blown to pieces. It's... After it's blown up, it's very troublesome to collect.

But everyone is still in a good mood, because they don't plan to blast the meteorite at all, but take another method.

"Your Highness, there is still a big problem. We put this meteorite into the subspace, but its huge kinetic energy may cause a lot of trouble..."

Put something into the subspace, and its original kinetic energy will not disappear.

A professor said worriedly: "How can we stop the meteorite and then mine it?"

"Don't worry about it, let's put it in first. The subspace is not infinite, it is bounded and boundless, even if the meteorite can move, it can't escape."

"As long as it is put in, we have plenty of solutions."

Zhang Ran said loudly, "Is everything ready?"

"It's ready!"

...

The Ark, Eden Sanctuary, and the TV station are conducting a high-profile live broadcast.

Many experts came to the meteorite and carefully measured its specific composition.

The successful capture of 200 million tons of meteorites gave a small boost to the already low morale of the people.

But only for a few hours.

A few hours later, morale was once again low.

The original plan was to get 1.2 trillion tons of asteroids, and the government also promised that as long as they got that big meteorite and exploited the resources on it, it would bring a huge improvement to the quality of life of the people.

However, there are only 200 million tons now, a difference of 6,000 times!

As a result, ordinary civilians in the Garden of Eden, after being happy for a while, began to worry about their future lives.

"Can we encounter another massive asteroid in the future?" This is a question that lingers in many people's minds.

Not only workers, but also many scholars and soldiers are discussing this issue.

Since the civilians brought in are all elites and need to work, there is basically no illiteracy. It is very difficult for the Ark government to fabricate lies and deceive them.

The answer is no, the probability is almost zero.

Objective facts cannot be changed by human will.

Since the sun disappears, all celestial bodies begin to move along the tangent direction of the original orbit without the constraint of the sun's gravitational force.

That is to say, whether the planets or the asteroids do not move in circles anymore, they all fly in a straight line.

Everyone flew farther and farther, and fled in all directions.

The solar system is long gone.

I don't know where the original Mars and Venus fled to.

Only the moon, attracted by the gravitational force of the earth, still surrounds it, and falls into the high-dimensional space together.

This piece of meteorite was also attracted by the gravity of the earth, so it happened to be encountered by humans.

But now that the earth is gone, and there is no gravitational force to attract free meteorites, how can human beings encounter another piece in the universe where matter is scarce?

Therefore, the probability is almost zero!

Thinking about it this way, many people feel a sense of loss in their hearts that they don't know where to go.

Including many soldiers, they all have a faint feeling in their hearts, but what should they do?

The only way is to maintain the status quo, maintain optimism, and hope that the future will be better...

Soon, the expert group came to specific conclusions, and the hostess broadcast the corresponding news in order to boost morale.

"Extremely good news. A large amount of water resources have been found on the meteorite. It is estimated that there are 140 million tons of water! Some metals have also been found, including iron, nickel, copper, and a certain amount of titanium! This meteorite still has With a small amount of titanium, we can make more space machines."

The atmosphere on the TV was full of joy, everyone was fantasizing, and cheerful and festive music was played along the way.

But the Internet has already scolded.

"Water resources, why are there only water resources? 140 million tons of water...the meteorites are only 200 million tons in total. We didn't just mine a large piece of ice, did we?"

"140 million tons of water, isn't it a lot?"

"Is it a lot? Do you know how much water there was in the Three Gorges Reservoir before? Let me tell you, 39.3 billion tons!"

Such a comparison seems to be a world of difference, which is a bit difficult to accept.

This resource will last a lifetime!

And the most important thing is that water resources actually account for the vast majority... It is even more infuriating.
