Chapter 227, Easily Dragging an Asteroid Weighing Hundreds of Millions of Tons
"Captain, what happened?"
At this time, crew member Sun Xiaowen, who was also awakened by the sound of the alarm and hurried over, asked hurriedly.
"Alien spaceship?"
The other crew members came over at about the same time, and just in time to hear Lu Yuan's words, their eyes widened.
"Behind us, there is a flying saucer-shaped aircraft approaching us at a speed of 500 kilometers per second. Everyone, please take a look."
Lu Yuan's face was very solemn, and he was thinking of countermeasures in his mind. When the others heard this, they hurriedly controlled radars, astronomical telescopes, etc.
"Holy crap, it's really an alien civilization spacecraft. We don't have such a spacecraft here on earth. And as far as I know, even the most advanced spacecraft of Fuyun Group cannot reach such a terrifying speed. 500 The speed of kilometers per second is really terrifying, and the plasma power is simply not enough to provide such strong power.”
Sun Xiaowen saw the flying saucer-shaped aircraft through the astronomical telescope, and then said categorically that being able to become an interstellar miner and go to the asteroid belt to mine asteroids is very familiar with various types of spacecraft in space. He knows Fuyun Group The aircraft is the best.
"What should we do? It's obviously coming towards us, and it's exactly the same as our route."
Sun Xiaowen looked at the captain Lu Yuan. All major decisions on the ship must be made by Lu Yuan. This is the captain's power.
"Send a distress message to the Earth immediately, and then send a message to this aircraft to see if you can talk to them."
Lu Yuan thought rapidly in his mind, and then seemed to make up his mind. If it was really an alien, he would have to take a closer look. He couldn't run away now, let alone fight. Dumbo Universe There are no weapons on the spacecraft, so it can only ask for help from the earth and then try to negotiate with aliens.
"No, this is not an alien civilization spacecraft. This is a spaceship belonging to the Fuyun Group. The spacecraft has the Fuyun Group's logo on it."
Soon, another person watching through the astronomical telescope made a new major discovery, and then said loudly.
"Fuyun Group's aircraft?"
Lu Yuan couldn't believe it, and then he watched it himself.
"Holy crap, it's really a Fuyun Group aircraft, but this is impossible, a 500 kilometers per second spacecraft..."
Through the astronomical telescope, Lu Yuan also saw clearly the logo on the flying saucer-shaped aircraft this time. It was the cloud-shaped logo of Fuyun Group. It is a pattern that everyone on the earth knows now. In the previous time, because the distance was relatively far, so It was hard to see clearly, but the speed of the aircraft was so fast that the distance between the two sides was shortened, and the logo on the spacecraft was clearly visible.
In the void about a million kilometers behind Lu Yuan and others, a flying saucer-shaped spacecraft was advancing in the void at an unimaginable speed. The spacecraft was in the shape of a flying saucer, an oval flying saucer, and was long enough. It is more than 500 meters long, more than 300 meters wide at its widest point, and 200 meters high. The overall look is full of science fiction, like an alien spaceship in movies and novels.
Inside the spaceship, Captain Zhan Fei was in a pretty good mood. When he originally received the company's mission to go to the asteroid belt to mine asteroids, he was not very happy because no one wanted to leave the earth for more than half a year, especially when Zhan Fei arrived. Flying at this level, one's net worth is already quite rich, and one can already have enough food and clothing.
However, when he learned that the spacecraft used was a spacecraft built with the company's latest technology and could reach speeds of hundreds of kilometers per second, he immediately accepted the mission with great enthusiasm. The speed could reach hundreds of kilometers per second. It would not even take a month for a second-second "somersault cloud" spacecraft to travel to and from the asteroid belt.
"Tsk tsk, this 'somersault cloud' spaceship is really fast."
You may not be able to feel how fast your spacecraft is in the void, but when you look back at the Earth, the Earth shrinks very quickly in your field of vision, and eventually becomes like a star in the sky. Zhan Fei knew that this speed was definitely not enough.
"Brother Fei, we received a message from a spacecraft in front of us. They actually thought we were aliens. Just hearing it once is very funny."
Crew member Zeng Ke came over to report with a smile. Zeng Ke was the correspondent on the spacecraft.
"Turn around and listen."
Zhan Fei raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.
"Friends from far away, welcome to the solar system as guests. We are earthlings. Isn't it convenient for us to make friends?"
"Haha, it seems they think we are aliens."
Zhan Fei couldn't help laughing after hearing the whole story. The speed of the "Somersault Cloud" spacecraft was really too fast. In addition, it was shaped like a flying saucer. It didn't seem surprising that it was misunderstood as an alien civilization spacecraft. .
"Reply them, we are from Fuyun Group, and tell them not to make a fuss."
Zhan Fei thought for a while and said with a slight smile.
Soon, Zhan Fei's reply arrived at Lu Yuan's side at the speed of light.
"It is really the spaceship of Fuyun Group. I didn't expect that in just a few years, Fuyun Group would be able to build such an advanced spaceship. If such a spaceship is used to travel to and from the asteroid belt, it will not even take a month. ”
Zhan Fei breathed a sigh of relief and confirmed the identity of the other party. Then there was nothing to worry about for his own safety, but he was deeply shocked by Fuyun Group's technology.
“As expected of Fuyun Group!”
Sun Xiaowen on the side also nodded.
Half an hour later, the distance between the two spaceships was already quite close. Lu Yuan and others were able to clearly see the spaceship behind them with their naked eyes. The routes of the two sides were slightly different. The "Somersault Cloud" spacecraft was so fast that it was impossible to There is no need to go to the asteroid belt in advance to mine asteroids like Lu Yuan and others.
"A fantastic spaceship. It would be great if I could buy a spaceship like this to mine asteroids."
Lu Yuan looked at the dreamlike spaceship in the void. There was a cloud-like pattern on the spacecraft. From a distance, it looked like a cloud.
A few minutes later, the "Somersault Cloud" spacecraft passed by hundreds of kilometers away from Lu Yuan and others, and soon passed Lu Yuan and others, and flew away.
"What kind of spaceship is this? Why haven't we heard anything about it?"
Sun Xiaowen looked at the spaceship that gradually disappeared from his field of vision, with an envious look on his face. Such a fast spacecraft not only means that the time to and from asteroids can be greatly shortened, but more importantly, such a spacecraft must be very powerful and can drag asteroids with greater mass. Its value is inestimable.
Naturally, Zhan Fei did not see the envious and excited expressions of Lu Yuan and others. The "Somersault Cloud" spacecraft flew rapidly in the void. Relying on the powerful anti-gravity system, it did not even have a tail flame, just like the sky in the void of the universe. Like ghosts in the sky, countless invisible creatures flew across distant and long distances.
In less than ten days, the "Somersault Cloud" spacecraft flew a long distance of hundreds of millions of kilometers from the earth to the asteroid belt.
"Brothers, work has begun."
With Zhan Fei's roar, the crew members on the main spaceship began to work. The time on the road was basically spent resting and exercising, because the spacecraft can completely rely on inertial flight and does not require any operation. What is really needed is Their time is now.
Whether we can find an asteroid with the highest value and bring it back to Earth is closely related to everyone's income. The greater the value of the asteroid, the greater the reward for everyone. After all, the bright red Chinese coins are now the favorite of people on earth.
Detection satellites, unmanned detectors, etc. are being spread in all directions for free. At the same time, very advanced detection radars, spectroscopic instruments, etc. are also turned on. It is not easy to find an asteroid with maximum value. matter.
"This asteroid has a mass of more than 90 million tons, which is appropriate in terms of mass, but its metal content is too little, so we give up."
"The metal content of this asteroid is very high, reaching 70%, but its mass is only 60 million tons, which makes it tasteless."
"It's over 100 million tons. We can't drag it. It's not our cup of tea."
For several days, Zhan Fei and others have been searching for suitable targets. Because the speed of the "Somersault Cloud" spacecraft is too fast, it is completely okay to stay here in the asteroid belt for a few more days. We can try our best to to maximize the value of your trip.
"Quack, I finally found it. Everyone, hurry up and take a look at this asteroid numbered AK0823. Its mass reaches 98 million tons. According to the spectrum, 85.23% is made of metal."
"That's it, action!"
After careful confirmation, Zhan Fei happily ordered. Soon, the asteroid was tied up by Wuhuada, and a carbon fiber rope with a diameter of more than ten meters connected it to the "Somersault Cloud" spacecraft.
"start up!"
As the rope slowly tightened, the carbon fiber rope on the asteroid tightened deeply.
On the "Somersault Cloud" spacecraft, Zhan Fei and others held their breath, and everyone looked quite nervous. Especially since they were dragging an asteroid of nearly 100 million tons, and it was a new spacecraft. In fact, everyone was still worried about whether the spacecraft could survive. To be fair, in terms of size, the "Somersault Cloud" spacecraft is even smaller than the Dumbo spacecraft.
"The asteroid has changed its trajectory. It has such a strong power, but it hasn't pushed forward at full strength yet."
Soon, everyone heaved a sigh of relief, because the "Somersault Cloud" spacecraft performed very easily, easily dragging the asteroid, changing its trajectory, and flying quickly towards the earth's orbit.
Let me answer the question about the outbreak that many book friends have mentioned. Because I am very busy during the Chinese New Year, there are indeed few updates. However, today Lao Niu is back at work. The extra meals, outbreaks, etc. that everyone expected will be there. Lao Niu’s passion It’s still here, as long as you are willing to read it, Lao Niu will keep writing for you.
