Chapter 348: The Fear of Trek

The white light flashed away, and in an instant, a super violent explosion occurred in the area, and the MB435 asteroid disappeared, producing an extremely chaotic particle explosion. The explosion of the antimatter particle beam and the rapid annihilation of positive matter, it does not spread violently around like a nuclear bomb, but looks relatively mild and is constant in a region. Under this "gentle" explosion, it represents more powerful destruction. ability. When positive and negative matter meet and annihilate, the energy is completely converted. The product of the explosion is a large number of high-frequency particles. The total charge of these particles is zero. Countless positive and negative electrons have a chain reaction, reaching a positive and negative balance, and the positive and negative electrons are annihilated again and again. At trillions of times, at the same time, these particles react in very small spaces, with extremely high energies causing space expansion. This area produces the smallest unit of countless modern particles - quarks, which are combined into atomic nuclei by their weight, odd and even numbers, and whether they are charged, and then capture extranuclear electrons to form different elements, and then combine into different molecules, until the macroscopic world is diverse. matter and living things. The entire area seemed to have undergone a cosmic explosion. The strong light that suddenly erupted on the holographic screen lit up a pair of eyes. Everyone couldn't help but close their eyelids. They were shocked by the explosion. "Successfully hit the MB435 asteroid, and a large number of gamma rays appeared in this area, ..." "The nano-detector was subjected to a gamma-ray burst image, and the picture was blurred, and the backup detector was activated ..." "Started to interpret the effect of the explosion, and observed a lot of frenzy. Particles, ..." "Discovery of space curvature changes, ..." ... The laboratory observation deck was busy, and the staff were busy recording the destruction data generated by the annihilation and explosion of antimatter. Now the atmosphere is tense. This test firing experiment, Theoretically, the explosion of antiprotons is more powerful than expected. Positive matter is the things in people's daily life, ranging from paper clips, nails, and buttons to automobiles, ships, and airplanes. If there is a knife, it can subdivide these objects in life infinitely, until they are divided into particles - atoms, and countless atoms constitute matter. These atoms all carry electrons and protons. For example, a hydrogen atom consists of one negatively charged electron and one positively charged proton. Conversely, an atom consisting of a positively charged electron and a negatively charged antiproton is called an antihydrogen atom. This antihydrogen atom is antimatter. Antimatter, as the name suggests, is the anti-state of normal matter. It is important to note that many particles, such as atoms, are opposite not only in charge, but also in everything else that can be opposite to their antiparticles. For example, in the magnets that will be used in life, opposites attract and same-sex repel; if there is a magnet made of antimatter, opposites may repel and same-sex attract. When matter and antimatter meet, there will be a huge explosion, which is called "annihilation". Just like in mathematics there are positive and negative numbers. Positive and negative numbers add up to zero, and zero means nothing. Annihilation is a process in which a huge amount of energy is released, and when the energy is completely released, nothing remains. How big is the huge energy generated by annihilation? The energy produced by the annihilation of 0.5 grams of antimatter is comparable to that produced by the atomic bomb explosion in Hiroshima (ie, about 10-15 kilotons of TNT equivalent). The explosion of 3,000 tons of antimatter directly caused the disappearance of the MB435 asteroid. At the same time, it also caused an extremely complex air-conditioning expansion and collapse effect of the force field in the entire area, far exceeding the front of the battleship Taishan. The curvature of antimatter The image generated by the road has disappeared, and a large amount of liquid nitrogen cooling device emits white mist drifting from the gun muzzle of the main ship. In the command room, dozens of staff are checking the wear and tear of the main gun of the Taishan. Soon, in less than fifteen kinds of time, the data generated by this test firing experiment was displayed on the holographic screen one by one. The high-level executives of Xingyao Technology who looked at the holographic screen collectively showed a happy smile on their faces, and they were overjoyed. "The test launch of the spacecraft was successful, which lasted less than 9 seconds, and the antimatter curvature gun succeeded in the MB435 asteroid, instantly destroying the MB435 asteroid without leaving a single particle.

Antimatter annihilation explosion, the core space produces a high temperature of 230 million degrees, resulting in a violent explosion, the explosion affects an area of ​​more than 300,000 square kilometers in diameter, . . . Zhang Muqiu was overjoyed, looked at the dignitaries of the alliance, and the top military officials, and announced happily. The enthusiastic applause of the scene had already sounded. "One hundred million kilometers, it only took 9 seconds, it's incredible!" ""Amazing! How much does this antimatter curvature gun cost? "" This effect is too powerful, unimaginable! "...The dignitaries, the officers confirmed the results of the test-firing experiment, and they questioned each and everyone in surprise and caring. The test-firing experiment was basically the same as expected. The power and speed even exceeded the prediction of crude oil. It is a miracle to be able to hit a target 100 million kilometers away in 9 seconds. Zhang Muqiu smiled and did not explain these problems again. The test firing experiment has ended, and then the company's top management needs to intervene. Li Yang took the initiative to step forward, Enthusiastically chatted with the dignitaries and officers of the alliance, they set up a virtual conference room, and talked in detail about the equipment of the main ship's weapons and the construction of the future starship. Seeing this, Li Yi smiled and took the initiative to close the virtual projection , ended this experimental observation. For the management of Xingyao Technology, Li Yang and a group of senior management have been able to deal with it calmly. This large-scale application of a large number of new technology reserves will change the predicament of Xingyao Technology and make Xingyao Technology YaoTech continues to lead human civilization and develop towards a more advanced interstellar civilization. Time flies, and seven years have passed. The azure "Blue Spirit Star" is like an extra-large sapphire, drifting quietly in the quiet Mutland galaxy. In a vacuum. Such a planet of life is a unique landscape in the vast universe. It will only be produced in a very advantageous astronomical position. Compared with other violent or dead planets, it is quiet and moving. The spaceship is beautiful. The Mutland galaxy is 17 light-years away from the solar system. As human civilization starts the interstellar era and launches interstellar explorations, more and more such living planets have been discovered, and the 'Blue Spirit Star' has discovered many lives in human beings The planet is inconspicuous, and its development value is only level 2. However, even so, Lan Lingxing still has a huge development value, attracting many human exploration spacecraft to come to the Mutland galaxy for adventure, a spaceport base At the same time as the orbit around the Blue Spirit Star was established, interstellar exploration spacecraft came to look for opportunities to make money. There are many opportunities to make money in the universe. The first is to explore life planets, and the second is to find resource planets and develop precious interstellar space. Minerals, the third is interstellar transportation, which transports valuable resources between various galaxies and the parent star, and strives for profits. All in all, in the human civilization of the interstellar age, interstellar exploration is a matter of great risk, and at the same time, it can create extreme The great economic value has made countless interstellar explorers willing to take risks for it. One after another, the exploration spacecraft flew out of the spaceport, and hurriedly shuttled back and forth in the spaceport of Lanling Star. Ready to return to the mother planet- The crew of the Earth's Polestar are very excited. After decades of hard flight, they can't wait to leave this planet and return to the embrace of the civilization of the main star. Interstellar travel, exoplanet exploration, of course romantic , but there is also the loneliness of long-term interstellar travel, ..., the mother planet of the solar system - the earth is the root of all people, they have been wandering in the outer galaxy for too long, and they are eager to go back to see the scenery of their hometown, their relatives, and their hometown. Delicious food. The Polestar, carrying more than 400 crew members, began to return. In addition to the crew members, there are many experts, scientists, doctors, and even soldiers who have received training..., everyone is full of hearts. The expectation of returning to the home planet. The vast starry sky is vast, the Polestar is sailing at high speed, and the passengers on board have not been interested in these scenery. Lan Lingxing is a planet of life, rich in natural resources, suitable for transformation into a colonial planet. In addition to enriching alien biological species, it also has various rich and precious resources. However, its special climate environment, if transformed into a human survival. The environment will cause great damage to the original original ecology. Therefore, its greatest value is to become an indigenous planet, suitable for interstellar travel, research on alien biology, and the collection of precious resources. The Polestar was loaded with harvests. With the expectation of returning to civilization, the crew entered the dormant cabins one after another. The spacecraft turned on the sub-light speed flight mode and flew towards the distant solar system. If there is no accident, the Polestar will enter the sub-light speed flight at 50-60% of the speed of light, and it will take 30 years to reach the solar system. For the crew on board, such a long flight may just be a sleep. When the spacecraft is flying for a long time, it sends contact signals with the solar system from time to time through gravitational wave interstellar communication to maintain the positioning of the galaxy. In the vast and boundless space, the Polestar is like an aurora meteor. After several months of sub-light speed flight, it finally reached the edge of the Mutland galaxy and entered the most dangerous area, and the risk has greatly increased. The formation of a star requires countless substances, and many conditions are required, such as hydrogen, gravity and a long time. In the beginning, a certain hydrogen in the nebula gradually began to heat up after being heated, and other substances It's also heating up and heating up, and it's starting to glow. The dust and gas gather together under the action of gravity, and finally form a huge vortex. Next, the vortex continuously attracts the surrounding matter, continues to gather and begins to compress, and the temperature of the compressed gas is also rising.

After hundreds of thousands of years of continuous action, the density of the nebula is also gradually increasing, successfully forming a disk-shaped vortex with a diameter even larger than the solar system, and the gas in the middle is continuously squeezed to form a high-density, high-quality sphere , the pressure is constantly increasing, and the huge gas is also ejected from the middle, which can finally accelerate the matter and travel a long distance. The core part is the youngest star. The gas and dust around the star continue to be sucked in and squeeze each other, and the heat will be more. In the next tens of thousands of years, it will gradually become hotter and brighter. The gas reacts at high temperatures, and eventually a fusion reaction occurs, in which the products are constantly working, and stars are born in the middle. With the birth of a star, the matter around the star is either captured by the star's gravity, or forms large planets, asteroids, and revolves around the star. Matter not captured by the star's gravity. For example, in addition to the eight planets in the solar system, there is also a Kuiper belt on the periphery of stars, which is a bit like another asteroid belt on the periphery of stars, but the composition of celestial bodies is mainly icy. The Kuiper Belt of the Solar System is a circular astrolabe beyond the known planets, extending from the orbit of Neptune to about 50 AU from the Sun, similar in structure to the asteroid belt, but much larger than the asteroid belt - about 50 AU in width 20 times the mass of the asteroid belt and 20 to 200 times the mass of the asteroid belt. During the formation process of many stars, a 'Kuiper Belt' appears in the outermost periphery. They are mainly composed of small celestial bodies or remnants from the beginning of the formation of the solar system. Because they are far away from the energy emitted by the stars, they are like pieces of floating ice. Some asteroids are composed of rocks and metals, however, many more are composed of large amounts of frozen volatiles (called "ice"), such as methane, ammonia and water. The Polestar flew away from the Mutland galaxy at a high speed, and soon entered the 'Kuiper Belt' of the Mutland galaxy. Pieces of ice-shaped asteroids appeared densely in front. The high-speed Polestar shuttled through the asteroid, and the hull suddenly collided with a small meteorite that had changed its orbit. The energy cover gradually lost its function as it exploded. "Warning, accidental collision, hull damage, energy defense force field failure, antimatter power furnace damaged, turn off main power furnace, slow down quickly!" "Warning, accidental collision, hull damage, start to wake up the crew!" "Warning , the hull was traumatized again, the ecological simulation area lost its energy supply, the third dormant area was damaged,..."... The originally quiet Polestar suddenly flashed a dazzling red light, and bursts of electronic sounds containing dangerous information continued. It came from the main ship room. The crew dormancy cabins of the Polestar spacecraft made "puchi" and "puchi" noises, and all the crew members who had entered a low temperature dormancy state were accidentally awakened. Seeing the current state of the spacecraft, the crew members were all bloodless and panicked. endlessly. "It's over, how can this happen, we can't go back!" "What happened, everyone calm down and see if there is any possibility of saving!" "No way, the hull is seriously damaged, and the antimatter power furnace is even It's broken, it can't work normally!" "We just flew out of the Mutland galaxy, lost the sub-light speed power engine, and it is difficult to return to the blue spirit star. It is -15.2 light-years away from the solar system. Don't want to go back in this life."... Confirmed The terrible situation of the Polestar, the crew screamed in panic, full of fear of being lost, of death. (
