Chapter 278 Space Monitoring Center
Since the advent of the star field world, the earth's technological development has been very rapid, and it is not too much to describe it as a technological explosion.Moreover, in recent years, more and more rune equipment in the star field world clearly shows that in many cases, things that cannot be solved by technology can be miraculously achieved by combining runes.

Different from the pure rune research of Xianhe collar, the major countries of the earth are more about combining their own technology and runes to a certain extent to develop unique rune technology.When more and more examples like this appear in life, human beings have become accustomed to runes from the initial curiosity and surprise.

Since runes are the bridge of communication rules, general functional rune combinations do not need to be driven by energy, and can directly absorb the ubiquitous elemental force, but generally large-scale rune equipment and instruments consume too much, and the thin elemental The power can no longer be supplied, and it can only be driven by a special energy source, that is, the Yuanjing.Therefore, today, the role of Yuanjing is becoming more and more extensive, and it has already become a strategic resource for all human countries.

The space shuttle that Mizhou landed on Mars before is a masterpiece of technology and runes, especially the most important plasma engine, which depicts a large number of rune combinations, and uses a large number of Yuanli alloys as materials to make it capable of withstanding The high temperature of tens of millions of degrees drove the entire spacecraft to travel at a high speed of hundreds of kilometers per second.

Of course, apart from Mizhou, Zhongxia also followed closely behind and developed corresponding spaceships, and the indicators were not weak at all.There has always been a competition between the two sides, and the actions of the two sides in space over the years are enough to become a space race.

Accompanied by this kind of competition, the areas that the two parties have set foot on are getting farther and farther away. Not only have footprints spread all over the solar system, but even human footprints have appeared on various satellites and trans-Neptunian celestial bodies.

Although so far, humans have only established permanent bases on the moon and Mars, and have only landed on other celestial bodies, but this speed of development is enough to make anyone amazed.

……

At this moment, on an asteroid at the edge of the solar system, a large pitch-black instrument is standing there.This is a sky survey monitoring instrument, whose function is to monitor the movement of asteroids in the outer solar system and provide reference data for astronomers.

In fact, before the big bang of science and technology, astronomical institutions on the earth were monitoring a large number of asteroids in real time, just to prevent problems before they happen. After all, the threat of asteroids to the earth is too great.

After the explosion of science and technology, the area that humans can explore is getting farther and farther, and the corresponding monitoring range of asteroids is getting wider and wider, especially the asteroids beyond Neptune, which is one of the key points of monitoring.Including this monitoring instrument, such monitoring instruments are deployed on a large number of asteroids outside Neptune.Of course, this kind of large-scale project cannot be supported by a single country, but it is completed by human beings.

Compared with ordinary competition, cooperation is still the mainstream in some major matters concerning the destiny of mankind.

drop!
The instrument's lens was already pointed in the past as three massive ships flew past.It's just that it's too far away from the sun, and the interstellar space is pitch black, so it's impossible to see clearly what is flying past. It can only rely on the faint light to see the general outline, and know the existence of the three spaceships through the gravitational detection instrument.

"Beep! Beep! Beep!"

Through simple calculations, several warning lights immediately appeared on the instrument and began to send warning signals in the direction of the earth.

In the information sent, the monitoring situation was basically sent to the earth truthfully.

Three suspected small celestial bodies, all about 300 meters in diameter.

Of course, the most important information is the orbits of these three suspected celestial bodies——

Facing the earth!

And, they are faster than you can imagine!

What these two points mean, I believe everyone is very clear.

According to the simple calculation of the monitoring instruments, flying at this speed, these three suspected small celestial bodies can hit the earth steadily in just a few hours.

At the beginning, in the settings of the sky survey and monitoring instruments, there were grades for the discovered asteroid threats.

Generally speaking, for all celestial bodies within the monitoring range of each instrument, the instrument will measure their orbit, speed, size and other parameters. Basically, most celestial bodies do not pose any threat to the earth. The impact rate is also pitifully low, often one in tens of thousands.

However, if these three celestial bodies follow the current orbit and speed, the impact rate with the earth is basically more than 99%.Even some gravitational perturbations from other planets on the way have negligible impact on the orbit of such a celestial body with such high speed that it is almost abnormal.

This kind of probability is like shooting a bullet randomly on the earth, but it just hits an ant on the moon, which is the extreme coincidence.

Not to mention three asteroids, even one, can bring devastating disaster to the earth.After hitting the earth, an asteroid of this level can wipe out all living things within thousands of square kilometers of the impact point, and the dust released into the atmosphere may affect the ecology of the entire earth.If there are three together, the power is not simply superimposed, and the destructive power will be multiplied many times.

These two pieces of information directly triggered the highest warning set inside the monitoring instrument, causing it to continuously issue warnings to the earth with the highest power and frequency.

……

Joint Earth-Space Monitoring Center.

This institution was jointly funded and established by the major countries of the earth three years ago, and is responsible for the maintenance, management and data processing of sky survey monitoring instruments in the entire solar system.Due to the particularity of the asteroid threat, this place also has the qualification to communicate directly with the highest levels of major powers.

"Woo~~woo~~woo~~woo~~woo~~"

At this time, harsh sirens echoed in the spacious and bright hall, red lights flickered rapidly, and various instruments operated crazily. For the first time, the entire center automatically triggered the highest level of warning.

The scientific researchers who had only experienced simulation drills were stunned for a while for the first time, and immediately entered the most tense moment after reacting.

Turn off the alarm, fully receive the data, analyze, measure, and finally form a report in a few minutes.

"Quick! Immediately! Send this report to the United States, Zhongxia, and Europa...with the fastest speed!" After reading the report, the person in charge of the monitoring center issued this order in a hasty tone before his body went limp.

In fact, what the person in charge didn't know was that almost at the same time, the leaders of the major countries had already known the news.If it is an ordinary threat, it will naturally not alarm the high-level, but it will be different if it is this kind of highest-level early warning.When the monitoring center was first established, it was presupposed that this kind of information could be automatically transmitted to the top.
