Technological power starts with upgrading lenses

At the same time, astronomical observation centers such as the Mauna Kea Observatory in Hawaii, the Chabot Space and Science Center in California, and the Llano de Chananto Observatory in the Andes almost simultaneously observed abnormal twinkles in the swallow star field.

[... Based on the above analysis, we believe that Tianwen-2 is likely to have a serious accident in the swallow star field like Lucy. At the same time, this also indirectly proves that there may be something unknown there! 】

The major observation stations quickly reported the data intelligence step by step, and it quickly attracted the strong attention of the major space agencies.

After Freya Hawke saw the information, she immediately slapped the table excitedly: "Let me just say, Chinese people never do anything without reason!"

"Now what should we do now?"

"What should I do?" Hawke said without thinking, "Of course I'm going to ask Ou Meng for money!"

"By the way, remember to ask what is going on in China. If they are unwilling to disclose it, you can try to put some pressure on them and force them to clarify to the public... Although the credibility of this kind of clarification is very low, it is always It’s better than saying nothing.”

"Understood."

…

However, Hua seemed to have predicted their prediction.

When they asked the China National Aeronautics and Space Administration about the situation of Tianwen-2, they received only ambiguous answers. They were trying to mobilize the navy to set the pace using the "waste of scientific research funds" as the starting point. However, the China National Aeronautics and Space Administration directly took the first step and issued a made an announcement.

[The Tianwen-2 probe arrived at the predetermined target area at two o'clock yesterday morning and confirmed the existence of an asteroid unknown to mankind in the Swallow star field. We have temporarily named the asteroid Mystery Star.

In order to obtain more information about mysterious stars, Chief Engineer Zhang Peirong decided to conduct an impact experiment on an asteroid under the advice of technical advisor Academician Kang Chi and orbital designer Professor Ye Hualiang. The experiment was a complete success and a large amount of information about mysterious stars was obtained. Important data.

In the future, our bureau will continue to pay attention to the mysterious star, and at the same time, we do not rule out the possibility of launching the next round of detection plans. 】

This announcement told the world without hesitation that they had indeed discovered an unknown asteroid there, but did not mention a word about the specific information about the asteroid.

The main thing Zhang Peirong knows very well is that most of the world's observatories have focused on Tianwen-2 in advance. There is no way to hide the explosion. It is only a matter of time to find out that there is an asteroid there. It is simply a big deal. Fang Fang admitted.

As for the accidental explosion? Waste of money?

It doesn’t exist at all!

This is a serious impact experiment!

Especially since Kang Chi's name was specially added to it, the decision suddenly became more convincing.

All right,

There is actually a little thought behind this,

That is to dig a small pit and wait for their 'impact experiment'...

As for if they ask for specific information about the mysterious star, they can just say "scientific research secrets" and send them away.

This can also arouse their curiosity and launch a detection plan in this area.

Under the circumstances where we already have great advantages in all aspects, it would be beneficial to us from any angle to provoke a new round of space race, divert the opponent's energy, and make them unable to do anything else.

…

Although the space agency's announcement was handled perfectly, the members of the Tianwen-2 project team knew very well that this time the detection plan was actually a failure.

Fortunately, after Zhang Peirong listened to Professor Ye Hualiang's advice in time, Tianwen 2 did collect a lot of useful data before the crash, the most critical of which was the main cause of the accident: the magnetic field strength of the mysterious star. .

7.8 Gaussian!

At the discussion meeting on the second day, everyone immediately exclaimed after receiving the latest analysis data.

"The magnetic field strength of that damn thing is 13 times higher than that of the earth, and the magnetic moment is 261 times greater?!"

"What's the difference between this and a big magnet? No wonder their Lucy crashed so fast. It's not unfair at all that ours fell down this time..."

"More than just being unjust, if Tianwen-2 hadn't been equipped with a quantum communication device, we would have been as confused as old M!"

"Well, no matter what, it's not a loss if we can figure out the problem this time." Zhang Peirong first comforted everyone, and then said pointedly, "What we need to consider now is what to do next."

Director Ge knew that Zhang Peirong was actually saying this to himself. To put it bluntly, it meant: There is no reason for the space agency not to allocate money to continue exploring such an evil thing, right?

After pondering for a moment, Director Ge finally set his sights on Kang Chi.

Kang Chi didn't say, "Professor Ye, have you come out with the results of the simulation calculation I asked you to do yesterday?"

Ye Hualiang nodded, glanced at everyone in the venue solemnly, then took a deep breath and said: "The situation is not good, but it is not too bad either."

"I conducted calculations based on the data obtained so far, and initially confirmed that the Mystery Star is clearing asteroids in the orbit of Jupiter at an extremely fast speed. If it is allowed to continue to develop, the asteroid belt in the L4 region of the Japanese Lagrange will probably cease to exist."

After hearing this, Director Ge suddenly looked nervous and asked, "Will that have an impact on us?"

"It's hard to say, because there is no more detailed data support, and the accuracy of this calculation model cannot be guaranteed. But as far as the current calculation results are concerned, I think the best scenario is that the mysterious star becomes a satellite of Jupiter."

"What's the worst?" Director Ge asked.

"The mystery star completely breaks the balance of the Jupiter satellite system, thus affecting the orbits of all the planets in the entire solar system. Our Earth may be closer to the sun, or it may be farther away. Humans will either be killed by heat or frozen..."

Seeing Director Ge's face pale with fear at these remarks, Ye Hualiang hurriedly explained: "But as I just said, the situation is not good, but it is not too bad either."

"Because even if this model is established, the time for the mystery star to clear its orbit may take thousands or tens of thousands of years. We don't need to worry too much about the 'end of the world' that may happen so long in the future."

"And there is no point in worrying. The mystery star has no atmosphere, lacks the cushion of parachutes, and with its strong gravity and magnetic field, it is impossible to land smoothly with our existing aerospace technology "And even if we can land on it, what will happen?"

"According to the information we have collected so far, this planet made of mysterious matter is likely to be much harder than diamonds. We can neither blow it up nor dig it up..."

"My suggestion is to carry out the exploration plan normally, without spending too many resources on it. At the same time, this is a problem for all mankind, and we don't have to take all the problems on ourselves."

"Well... Professor Ye has a point, but its existence is always a time bomb." Director Ge was a little worried.

"Things involving the survival of the entire human civilization, even if it may only happen tens of thousands of years later, we should also pay attention to it."

As he said, he looked at Kang Chi again, obviously still wanting to hear the advice of this 'backbone'.
