Chapter 464 The Insidious Scheme

A general in Army uniform proposed, "If debris is generated on a large scale, especially after the Tiangong space station is destroyed, more debris will definitely be generated. Will it attack our satellite and cause our satellite to lose contact? No satellite Support, our military will be very dangerous."

The general looked at Victor after speaking, waiting for his answer.

"Generals and gentlemen from other departments, you don't study the aerospace field, so you don't know much about it." Victor tidied up his words and said, "The plot of the film was indeed exaggerated. He came to us to ask for a technical director, and after confirming the feasibility, he magnified the crisis, so there was the scene in the movie."

"In fact, these space debris hitting the space station is also a small probability event. It may only happen once a year or more, and even if there is an emergency, it may not necessarily hit something."

As some military generals, even if they know something, they still know a little bit, and as a member of the space agency, his role is just these, so Victor is obliged to convey some basic understanding to them.

After all, when the meeting report is submitted, everyone's signatures are still required, and such a large plan requires careful cooperation. Maybe everyone will be questioned individually. He doesn't want to offend anyone.

Some reports often say that there are so many satellites in space, and it sounds like a downtown area, and it always feels that scratches will happen if you are not careful.

However, the density of satellites in space is not as dense as we imagined, and the orbits and altitudes of different satellites are also different. The possibility of such a chain reaction is actually very small.

Victor simply found a writing board and explained it to them while drawing a simple picture.

"...Communication satellites generally operate in geostationary orbit, more than 3 kilometers away from the earth, while the space station is only about [-] kilometers above the earth. The gap between the two is quite large. The height is a little higher, but it is also limited.”

"...after the satellite is shattered, most of the debris will still stay in the original orbit and revolve around the earth. This is why we have to hit a satellite in a specific orbit to attack the Tiangong space station. And This process is still going through a lot of calculations.”

"...Many garbage will be produced during human space exploration, such as the last stage of rockets, abandoned satellites, abandoned spaceships, and abandoned space stations. But in the vast space, if you want to rely on natural probability to hit the aircraft, then The probability of this is very small."

"...Unless, it's man-made."

"...and we know the plan in advance, so after we calculate the accurate impact orbit, we can change the orbit of satellites in orbits near us in advance to keep them away from the orbit, so that safety can be guaranteed."

If it is destroyed casually, then there is no need to play with the space industry of mankind.

In the history of human spaceflight, there has only been one incident of a satellite colliding with a satellite, but the threat of space junk to man-made spacecraft has gradually emerged, but what they affect is not the present, but the future.

After all, if space junk is not dealt with, it will accumulate more and more. Maybe one day I will show you the sweeping army in the movie.

"That is to say, the satellites of other countries near this orbit may be attacked?" Another general asked with interest.

"Yes, if the debris spread is large enough, this is very possible. However, this must be carefully calculated, and these satellites must also be added to the final calculation data, because if they are affected, then the resulting Fragments are also a threat," Victor explained.

Hearing Victor's affirmation, a gloomy general said, "Then can we spread the debris as much as possible, and then destroy as many satellites of other countries as possible, even some of our abandoned satellites can be thrown in and destroyed. I think this is a very good opportunity to get rid of our suspicions and attack our opponents as much as possible.”

His words resonated with many generals.

Although the United States is still the leader in the world now, with the continuous development of the countries behind, their rights have been more and more restricted, and in this era, it is impossible to fight a big war.

To be honest, when I am used to being the first, now I am restricted by the younger brother behind me, I can imagine the unhappiness in my heart.

"No, absolutely not."

Victor knew what they were thinking, so he seriously refused because the consequences were too serious.

"It's too dangerous. The situation in the universe is much more complicated than we imagined, and our calculations and simulation results cannot be 100% correct, so we must minimize the scope of influence and minimize the probability of accidents. "

"Unilaterally attacking the Tiangong space station is already the limit of what we can do. If we want to expand the range of debris attacks, it will be too easy to lose control. Moreover, the orbit of the International Space Station is not far from the Tiangong space station. It is only a few tens of kilometers away. Be careful and the scene in the movie will actually appear."

"At that time, the earth's orbit will be full of spacecraft debris and space junk, and no one will be able to fly out of the earth, and all we can do is stay on the earth and wait to die!"

Victor became more and more severe as he spoke, just like returning to the time when he was a teacher and giving lectures to students. When he talked about the rigor of technology, once danger happened, the chain effect would be terrible.

At that time, they just took out the danger probability and magnified it, so that they could remember it long.

It's just that I didn't expect that this group of soldiers planned to do this in this direction today.

Noticing the change in Victor's mood, Lieutenant General Carter, who presided over the meeting, coughed and said, "Ahem, Deputy Director Victor is right, we all know the dangerous situation here, space is too far away from us , It is really difficult to control the situation in time, we will solve the Tiangong space station first, and talk about other combat plans later."

Victor also noticed that he put down the pen in his hand and returned to his seat with some embarrassment, "Now that the task is determined, I will go down and arrange the simulation calculation task immediately, but we need the assistance of the National Supercomputer Center, because This task will be very computationally intensive."

"No problem, I will call after the meeting to ask you to cooperate with me." Carter said, "Any questions?"

"We don't have any here," Victor replied.

Carter looked at the others again, and the generals all said that there was no problem, but Bretta from the Tactical Technology Department asked a question.

"I think our plan still needs the assistance of Musk Aerospace. When we start the mission, we need his manned spacecraft to conduct an empty test flight, and then dock with the International Space Station for a stay experiment."

Kata asked, "Why?"

Breta paused and said, "One is to further indicate that we are performing other tasks and create an 'alibi'. The other is to prevent any eventuality, in case things develop beyond our control, we must immediately Evacuate the personnel stationed on the International Space Station and let them return to Earth safely, after all, the lives of astronauts are still very precious."

"Where are the astronauts and space workers at the Tiangong Space Station?" Victor asked hesitantly.

Bretta glanced at him and said, "Hehe, they are not citizens of our country, they have not paid taxes for us, they have not made contributions to us, and they are not even our allies."

"I think we don't need to be responsible for their safety. What they are looking for should be their motherland, which is Huaguo."

"To blame, blame them for being born in the wrong country."
