cosmic hegemony

Chapter 200, successive disintegration

In the outer space of the earth, a brand-new "Kowloon" spacecraft is currently preparing for its departure. This brand-new spacecraft has learned the lessons of the previous time and spent a lot of money to purchase black gold materials from Fuyun Group. Create the keel and frame of the spaceship, and improve on some other designs.

"ignition!"

Following Qiu Guangming's order, the several heavy-duty launch vehicles on the spaceship instantly ejected white and dazzling tail flames, and the tail flames continued to elongate as the power continued to increase.

In the spaceship, more than a dozen carefully selected astronauts all looked in the direction of the earth. In the void, a blue planet exuded the halo of life. It will be hundreds of millions of kilometers away. The long journey, the risk of which is likely to make everyone gone forever.

However, for the high remuneration, each of the dozen or so astronauts has received a huge amount of money that is enough for them to live comfortably in the future before departure. It is also the first of its kind in the field of famous astronauts.

2 million Chinese dollars, even in the past, was an astronomical amount, not to mention the continuous appreciation of the Chinese currency, and the sharp increase in purchasing power around the world. It can be said that 2 million Chinese dollars is enough for them and their families to not have any financial worries.

People from organizations such as Zhang Xianzu and Qiu Guangming are also very helpless, because such a long journey is full of huge risks, and each of these astronauts is a high-paying talent. People are willing to fight with their own worth and life.

If it is the Fuyun Group or the Huaxia official, they have strong technical strength and guaranteed safety, so everyone is naturally not afraid, but although Zhang Xianzu and others are the top space technology companies in China, what is the "Nine Dragons" spacecraft? So, in fact, everyone has no idea.

With the start of the launch vehicle, the huge spaceship starts slowly. First, it flies dozens of times around the earth, and the speed becomes faster and faster. When the speed reaches more than 20 kilometers per second, the spaceship directly leaves the earth's orbit and rushes to the asteroid belt. .

"accelerate!"

The "Jiulong" spacecraft keeps launching one rocket after another, and its speed is also constantly increasing. The long journey of hundreds of millions of kilometers, if the speed is not fast enough, it will take too long to go back and forth.

One month after the launch of the Kowloon spacecraft, in the outer space of the earth, Uncle Sam, Foot Pot Chicken, Indian Elephant, Polar Bear, Nan Bangzi and others are relatively powerful countries in the world, and these countries imitate the "Kowloon" spacecraft. They all built huge spaceships and came out.

At this time, the huge spaceships are almost all built within a few days or so, and they are also rushing towards the asteroid belt one after another.

Uncle Sam’s "Knight" spaceship is more than a kilometer long, and it also uses nine huge heavy-duty launch vehicles as power. In terms of traditional launch vehicle technology, if Uncle Sam is second, no one dares to say the first. According to According to theoretical calculations, the limit of the "Knight" spacecraft can drag 3000 million tons of asteroids, which rarely makes Uncle Sam's news media boast about it.

The "Mount Fuji" spacecraft of the foot pot chicken is also more than 900 meters long. It also uses 9 heavy-duty launch vehicles as the main power. It is aboard the [-] best astronauts of the foot pot chicken. It is said that everyone has been received before departure. The interview of their spiritual leader gave them a wave of blood.

Polar Bear's "Ula" spacecraft, Indian Elephant's "Curry" spacecraft, Nan Bangzi's "Great Universe" spacecraft...the national flags of various countries are branded on each huge spacecraft. Play the national anthem and set off towards the asteroid belt.

The news media on the earth, etc. are naturally unwilling to be lonely, vying to cheer for the astronauts of their own country, and at the same time happy for the breakthroughs made by their country in the space field, and wishing their country's spacecraft a triumphant return.

Blessings seemed to be useful. The journey was uneventful, and almost all the spaceships reached the asteroid belt very smoothly, without any trouble on the way.

In the asteroid belt, the "Kowloon" spacecraft that resisted first has already selected a target, and it adopts a model that is almost exactly the same as that of the Dumbo spacecraft. First, a small spacecraft is used to wrap a carbon fiber rope around the asteroid, and then it is ready to be towed. Asteroids change their orbits.

"start up!"

In the spaceship, everyone became very nervous. As the nine heavy-duty rockets shot out bright white and dazzling tail flames, the carbon fiber ropes connecting the asteroids began to tighten. This time their goal was to reach 2000 million tons. asteroid.

The spaceship trembled constantly, and you could even hear a tooth-piercing sound faintly. It was the sound made when the metal was stretched by a huge force. Fortunately, the skeleton of the spaceship was made of black gold material, and this problem was also considered in the design. , so when the nine heavy-duty launch vehicles were fully advanced.

The asteroid was successfully dragged in the end, and slowly began to change its trajectory. The "Kowloon" spacecraft finally persisted and did not fall apart due to the huge pulling force.

The "Jiulong" successfully changed the trajectory of the asteroid and began to return to the earth. This news was quickly released by Zhang Xianzu and others, because it meant that their previous investment of tens of billions had paid off. Everything is going well, and this asteroid is worth at least 2000 billion Chinese dollars when it reaches the earth.

Encouraged by this good news, the stocks of space technology companies such as "Star Technology", "Star Power", and "Universal Hand" began to rise crazily. The price increases of Zhang Xianzu, Zhou Wenhong, Qiu Guangming and others naturally also went up.

Of course, it is not only the people in the Chinese space science and technology circle who are encouraged by this good news. Those countries that also have spacecraft to go to the asteroid belt are also ecstatic. The success of the "Kowloon" spacecraft made them see I hope that after seeing the spacecraft that my country has worked so hard to build, I can smoothly bring back asteroids and huge resources.

The "Knight" spacecraft arrived at the asteroid belt first. With the help of two top space astronomers on board, they found a suitable asteroid with a mass of 2700 million tons, and more than 80% of it was It is the element of iron, such an asteroid is very perfect.

"Action! We're home, and if all goes well, we'll be able to go back for Christmas."

Following Captain Stephen's order, everyone on the "Knight" spacecraft was very excited. After staying on the spacecraft for several months, everyone was already very bored. Now they heard that they can go home for Christmas. Every one of them is full of energy immediately.

As the thrust of the rocket continued to increase, the blazing and dazzling tail flame continued to elongate, and the carbon fiber rope connecting the spacecraft and the asteroid began to tighten.

"Crack!"

When the power on the spacecraft rocket was fully turned on, in just a few seconds, everyone on the spacecraft heard such a sound clearly, and each of them seemed to have fallen into a hole in the ice for an instant, and their smiles disappeared instantly. All quiet down and listen.

However, before they had any reaction, the "Knight" spacecraft suddenly fell apart in space, and the huge thrust of the rocket acted on the spacecraft. Or other aspects, both are the crystallization of Uncle Sam's technology.

But after all, no one told them the design experience of this kind of large spaceship. If the spaceship is only used for flying, it is fine, but once it is to drag an asteroid with a mass of 2700 million tons, it seems that it has to use a bamboo raft to get there. Sailing in the vast ocean is normal, without any accidents, it disintegrates in space directly.

Following the "Knight" is the "Mount Fuji" spacecraft of the foot pot chicken. These two spacecraft almost arrived at the asteroid belt in about the same time, but there are slight differences in the angles when they set off, so The location is also different by thousands of miles.

There is no connection with each other, and the asteroid belt is far away from the earth, so the news of the disintegration of the "Knight" spacecraft in the asteroid belt did not affect the "Mount Fuji" spacecraft. The spaceship did not have any accidents, just like the "Knight" spaceship, it fell apart directly in space under the pull of a huge force.

Polar Bear's "Ulla" spacecraft followed closely behind, dragging a huge asteroid and turning it into a ball of flames in the asteroid belt.

Soon, when the three countries of Uncle Sam, Pot Chicken, and Polar Bear lost contact with their spacecraft, each of these countries panicked. You must know that these spacecraft themselves were built at a huge cost, and secondly, they depended on their spaceships. The hope of a country looking to space is broken, and the hope is shattered, which is something that no one wants to see.

The news quickly spread all over the world, and the "Curry" and "Great Universe" spacecraft that were walking behind also received the news very quickly, but at this time they had already reached the asteroid belt.

It seems a bit unwilling to go back empty-handed if you don’t do anything. I am worried that the previous few spacecraft will have accidents in the asteroid belt one after another, and the reason has not been found yet.

In the end, to be on the safe side, both spacecraft chose asteroids with only more than 100 million tons as their targets, but they still did not escape bad luck, and they also fell apart when pulled by huge forces.

Spaceships lost contact one after another, and the entire earth fell into silence and mourning, except for China, of course.
