[Chapter 184: Fossils? (two chapters merged)]

When the audience saw the picture again, it hit the day and night separation point on the surface of Mars, still bursting with dazzling light. ＞ ≥August 1 Chinese≦＜﹤＜≤﹤≦＜≦﹤≦On the day side, the high-altitude atmosphere presents a circular air wave with a radius of more than 2,000 kilometers under the strong energy of Sinian, and the thin clouds within the radius instantly It was shaken, and on the surface of Mars, when the clear picture was seen again, a 43o-kilometer diameter crater was born. People were horrified to see that the shock wave centered on the crater spread in a circular shape on the surface of the planet. Here, the wind swirls the clouds.

The audience only saw that the shock wave was covered with dust everywhere, and could no longer see the six places on the surface of the planet. And this shock wave directly affects a quarter of the entire planet before it ends, and indirectly affects the entire planet's surface. Within a day, Mars will be shrouded in dust, and it will be difficult to dissipate for two million years.

"The 'Terminator' is here!"

Just 549 seconds after "Phobos" slammed into the surface, the real world-destroying scene came to the planet, and the picture was once again overwhelmed by light.

...

NASA.

"In an emergency, the headquarters lost contact with the 'Mars Observer 2'!" A staff member looked up at the rapid hurricane English on the display panel.

"Retry to connect with it now!"

"No need, 'Mars Observer 3' has crashed on the surface of Mars 488 seconds ago." said a third party who came suddenly.

"What did you say? It's impossible?"

"Nothing is impossible. The reason for the crash was that the probe was in a low-altitude orbit and was hit by the aftermath of the 'Terminator' impacting the planet, and it crashed out of control. This is all the data sent back by the 'Mars Observer 3' 488 seconds ago, have a look!"

"My God!! How could there be such a large data error? How could the energy generated by the 'Terminator' hitting Mars is 68 times what we estimated? How can this be???"

"Hey, I don't think it's an error. It's just explained as follows, in addition to the energy generated by the collision of the 'Terminator' with Mars, the extra 67 times the energy comes from other factors, maybe some internal Mars during the collision. These substances release energy, but we already know enough about the geological structure of Mars. This can basically be ruled out, so there is only one explanation..."

"...That is, the extra 67 times the energy comes from...the Terminator itself!"

"What did you say? The 'Terminator' itself released the energy of the 67 quilts? This..."

"Only the 'Terminator' is the most suspect,

We don't know anything about its physical structure. It was impossible to know its condition for two days. The energy cannot be fabricated out of thin air, let alone 67 times the high energy generated by the collision. Excluding all impossibility, there is only one result, the 'Terminator' itself released this energy! "

"Oh. Damn it! By the way! What's going on with China's Yinghuo-3 now? It crashed too?"

"No, the 'Yinghuo 3' is located in a high-altitude orbit, and the aftermath has not caused destructive damage to it, and it is still operating!"

"Then what are you doing? Hurry up and contact them to apply for the broadcast. As long as the price is not too outrageous, I will agree. And the most important thing, we and the Mars rover 'Explorer 2' on the planet have lost control. We need an information transfer station, and now only 'Yinghuo-3' is in orbit. We will discuss with China to let 'Yinghuo-3' take over our Mars rover, and we can consider sharing information with it. This time the Mars rover has just On the planet, it's an excellent time to collect data samples."

"Yes!"

"Get it done as soon as possible, the rover can only survive for a few hours before it will be torn apart by the shock wave!! F**k!! It's so interesting to help people advertise and send money in the past!!!"

NASA contacted the China National Space Administration for the first time. China was surprised by the application requirements of the United States. Only then did China know that the "Mars Observer 3" failed. The United States wants to apply for the live broadcast of "Firefly III". Naturally, China greeted them with a smile. Of course, the benefits were definitely needed, but there was no lion talking. A reasonable amount of money has been received. This benefit is second. The most important thing is that this broadcast is a good opportunity for the "Yinghuo-3" probe and China Aerospace to publicize it. You must know that the world is now paying attention to this hot spot. The number of people can be calculated in billions.

The United States, as always, has a big mouth, trying to share information. The price is for "Firefly 3" to replace "Mars Observer 3" as the information transfer station for the surface Mars rover, and the United States promises to be willing to provide information and data with it. But China rejected the U.S. proposal on the grounds that the "Firefly 3" has its own mission, and there is no room for negotiation?

Now, there is only one probe in the orbit of Mars. The American "Observer 3" crashed in a low-altitude orbit, and the Mars rover "Explorer 2", which has been on the surface of Mars for less than two months, is very fast It is about to become a pile of garbage. The crash of "Mars Observer 3" also caused the only transit station to disappear, and the Mars rover on the surface also became an ownerless thing.

As for why China refused without hesitation, there was no room for negotiation. Everything was because the United States was unwilling to share the "Explorer 2" earlier. .

More importantly, just when the Americans left in anger, the Chinese National Aeronautics and Space Administration began to secretly crack the Mars rover "Explorer 2".

At this moment, the Mars rover is unmanned, and the weak model cannot be transmitted back to the earth without the help of a transfer station. China can do it how it wants, and the Americans do not know.

"Comrade Xiao Yi, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Deciphering the 'Explorer 2' is of great help to our own ground detector research. In seven and a half hours, the shock wave will reach the 'Explorer 2'. Location, time is running out, please, do your best!"

"I will do my best!"

"...I succeeded! I succeeded!"

"Getting control of 'Explorer 2'... Successfully obtained terminal permissions!"

"The shock wave is expected to reach the target location in 5 minutes!"

"Quick, quick! Don't analyze and process it, just copy all the data out, and there will be time for research later!"

"The target is hit and the 10-second countdown begins...8...7...6...5..."

"All data copies completed!"

"Okay! What a surprise, if the Americans knew about it, they would probably vomit three liters of blood, hahaha~~"

Just after the data was received, the shock wave formed by the "Terminator" hitting the surface instantly tore the "Explorer 2" on the surface of Mars to pieces, and the land was instantly shrouded in dust and heat waves. zero.

The shock wave created by the Terminator hitting the Martian surface then completely covered the energy fallout and impact range of Phobos, and then spread. Until 8 hours passed, the previous progress of the shock wave still kept the sound spreading, like a 36o forklift pushing the dust on the surface, wherever the shock wave went. The geomorphological features have all undergone great changes, and the largest canyon in the solar system, "Valley of the Mariners", is on Mars. However, the shock wave effortlessly made the most ancient of the solar system obsolete, after the shock wave passed the "Valley of the Mariners". The canyon was flattened in an instant by the dust that was pushed by the shock wave.

After the ring shock wave reaches the maximum diameter of Mars, it begins to become smaller, and will eventually converge at the opposite point of the impact site. After 8 hours and 47 minutes, the shock wave formed by the "Terminator" meteorite hitting the surface converged to the opposite point, and it was Olin. The poles corresponding to Mount Pith coordinates.

Although the live broadcast is continuing, the number of people still watching is now only 7% compared with the peak period. These people witnessed this shock wave and marched forward on the surface of Mars in a destructive state. The affairs in front of it all vanished into ashes. This is a power that truly destroys the world, a power that terrifies the audience, a power that makes mankind feel hopeless!

Until the impact reached the entire surface of Mars, there was no way to move forward, and finally converged on the opposite side of the impact. When the shock wave converged at the opposite point, it looked like a "firework" in outer space. The visible degree is blooming, and this "firework" spreads at an altitude of 230,000 meters at the opposite position, 5oo kilometers, 8oo kilometers, 1o7o kilometers... The "fireworks" mainly composed of dust will spread over time to The entire atmosphere. These dusts will remain in the Martian atmosphere for at least 600,000 years, when sunlight will hardly be able to absorb the surface.

All scientists have never thought that the final result is like this. Is this the power of 68 times the collision energy?

China National Space Administration.

"My God, the shock wave created a mountain at the end that is 3895 meters higher than Mount Olympus. 39o minutes created a peak of 25124 meters!!! Hu~~~ Hu~~~ It's terrifying!" The middle-aged man stared blankly at the real-time calculation simulation graphics on the monitor, his body trembling. This is not only a power to destroy the world, but also a power to create the world. It has created the highest mountain in the solar system and refreshed a series of records.

"Has the topographic information of the impact point come out?"

"It's already out, basically the tiankeng won't be expanding."

"How big?"

"The diameter is 37o1 kilometers. The tiankeng is 384 kilometers deep to the bottom, and the bottom is 3o4 kilometers deep into the Martian mantle, and there is... just... just... teach... teach... teach... professor!!"

"When did you stutter?"

"...Professor! The data shows that the integrity of the 'Terminator' asteroid is as high as 95.5%, it...it is almost completely preserved!"

"What did you say? Are you sure?"

"It's true, I thought the data was wrong, but I repeated the calculation five times, now it's the sixth time, and the result is still 95.5%!"

"What material is this purple asteroid made of? Is the 67 times the extra collision energy really released by it?"

...

The "Terminator" asteroid in the Tiankeng is very complete. The data obtained by the scientists of the China National Space Administration is correct. Its preservation integrity is amazing, and it does not even seem to have any damage. In fact, the two celestial bodies fell to the ground. At the time, "Phobos" was continuously dismembered into pieces of different sizes due to atmospheric friction along the way, but the "Terminator" meteorite did not even have a single bit of dismemberment in the process of falling, with 100% integrity fell to Mars.

This is incredible!

Now, it has erased "Olympus Mountain", settled in this territory by itself, and stationed here forever and peacefully. If scientists are now the "Terminator" meteorite will be extremely shocked, because its surface has changed from bright purple to dark purple.

This meteorite not only smashed a level crater, but also smashed out the mantle of Mars, which was exposed at times.

In a certain corner of the Tiankeng, there are more than 20 openings in the Tiankeng, which is the mantle of Mars. There are so many holes. If the "Explorer 2" still exists and arrives here, it will be found. These holes that look extremely dark from the outside are actually interconnected internally. As if there is no end, some hollow places inside are even enough to accommodate three football fields.

At a certain hole location, there is a very strange structure, it does not seem to be formed naturally, because it has amazing symmetry. If an archaeologist sees it, just take a casual look and make a 100% conclusion...it's a fossil.

...

The Martian impact event lasted for 13 hours, and the live broadcast lasted for a long time, until Olympus formed a new highest peak in the solar system.

This incident completely shocked every witness, the world-destroying scene, the terrifying and frightening shock wave made every witness unforgettable for a lifetime, and the birth of the new highest peak in the solar system made every witness All felt how terrifying the irresistible power of creation at all.

In 39o minutes, a mountain as high as 25,124 meters was created, and people can't imagine what a mighty force this is.

The Martian impact event is over, but the topic has not waned. The world still hasn't recovered from that shock.

The newly formed highest peak in the solar system is named "New Olympus Mountain", and the original "Olympus Mountain" has been completely erased from Mars, and a level crater has been formed in place to commemorate this Mountain peak, people named this sinkhole "Olympus sinkhole". The entire landform and geographical characteristics of Mars have undergone earth-shaking changes, "Olympus Mountain" disappeared, and "New Olympus Mountain" was born, and the "Valley of the Mariners" on Mars was also buried, more Countless circumstances have been altered...

After being hit by two asteroids, Mars is no longer the original Mars, but for humans. After the results of the impact event came out, NASA once again held a press conference to announce that the United States had cancelled the "Mars Plan" that had been in preparation for 25 years from now on. Americans originally thought that it would only be necessary to postpone it for a few years, but no one thought of the energy released after the "Terminator" hit Mars. Even the calculation of all human beings is wrong, and the error has reached 67 times.

But this error also tells humans that the "Terminator" meteorite is very likely to be a new substance or element that humans have never seen before, and only a conclusion can explain why such a big error occurs. This is undoubtedly exciting news, but soon those scientists who were excited about it were as helpless as a deflated ball, and Mars has undergone great changes. Judging from the harsh environment where the surface of Mars is now hundreds of times higher than before and the current level of human aviation technology, human landing on Mars may be a long way off. Even if it is a ground probe, it will not be successful in the next five to ten years. On the ground of 6, at most, the orbital probe will be fired for long-distance observation.

Although there are many difficulties, this is not the reason. Scientists can almost make a 70% conclusion. That meteorite is made of unknown elements and materials. Uncovering its mystery may promote the progress of human technology. Not necessarily, the magical meteorite lying under the "Olympus crater" is the power source of human desire to land on Mars.

(ps: If you have time, I suggest you read this ps. The following words are free of charge.

This plot is finally over. A lot of pits have been dug. I don’t know how many people have found. There are giant pits, big pits, and small pits, and there are more than one of them. If you find all the pits, the small stone Then the pit digging failed outright. If you can only see one or two of them, it is a success. If you can't see all of them, er, it is impossible to see all of them. It's too cute, I don't believe it. These pits dug are also related to filling the pits in front. These pits should be filled in the pits behind, 2333, just like the pits in front are filled with these pits! The digging is almost done, and the next step is to enter the rhythm of filling and digging.

In the end, I still owe two chapters~~, I was moved to tears, and finally I have to pay it off. The feeling of no debt is not too nice! This lesson is very profound, on the importance of keeping manuscripts! ! ) (To be continued.)
