Chapter 387 Listen to me, thank you
The situation took a sharp turn, and Jian rushed to enter the operating instructions, but she was shocked to find that all the instructions she issued were like muddy bulls entering the sea, all sank into the vast space, while the thousands of starlink satellites did not react at all.
Even after she entered the final emergency shutdown command, the satellite remained on the switched-orbit engine, slowly and firmly deviating from the scheduled orbit.
"What the hell is going on!"
Jane shouted hysterically at James beside her. The latter did not answer, but immediately resumed the communication between heaven and earth and began to calmly report the situation to the ground in cipher text.
What he reported was very simple:
All space-based units, including but not limited to Starlink satellites, have been completely out of control.
How is this done?
Logically speaking, even if the other party cracks its own ciphertext or even interferes with the operation command signal, it will definitely not achieve such an effect.
Thousands of starlink satellites need to be controlled simultaneously, which is not something that can be simply interfered with and tampered with instructions. They require a complete system, and even the operational fitting model is unique.
Yes, the other party may be able to influence one or two satellites alone, or can control dozens or hundreds of satellites, but without an operating system, it is impossible for them to achieve unified scheduling of the entire Starlink system.
It's like some sort of miracle.
James looked at the signal on the screen numbly, and after a moment, he suddenly realized.
The motion trajectories of those satellites are almost exactly the same as the motion trajectory after they issued the first operation command.
The other party did not interfere with the operation commands at all.
They just intercepted their own instructions, and after using some method to deceive the system, they sent the instructions that had been executed again.
Now, our side has no way of doing this - even if we restore control of the Starlink satellite, who can guarantee that the operation data will not double again after the next instruction is issued?
"Contact the ground."
James sighed helplessly.
"There is no need to continue to struggle. This is not a problem we can solve. We must communicate directly with the other party."
"What do you mean? You mean we have to give in??"
Jane looked at James in shock, who nodded and replied:
"At least they just doubled the data... If they magnified three times, about 80% of the Starlink satellites have crashed now."
"We can only admit defeat because we don't even know how they did it..."
"But......"
"alright."
James interrupted Jane's rebuttal and asked simply:
"Are you any other way?"
.........
Tiangong Space Station, Tianhe Core Cabin.
Looking at the Starlink satellite gradually moving away, Luo Yaping finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Over the past two hours, they have experienced the most intense moments since entering the space station.
Three starlink satellites are coming towards us, with orbital distance of only more than ten kilometers. If you are not careful, the satellite and the space station will collide, thus completely destroying this space station that has gathered countless efforts.
They have prepared all orbital changes. As long as they enter the final time window and the situation still has not changed, they must carry out emergency orbital changes to avoid those satellites that obviously carry malicious intentions.
Fortunately, the final result was expected by the command center.
For some reason that cannot be discussed publicly, the satellites of the Ugly Kingdom took the initiative to avoid their orbits, and could even be said to have avoided their space stations with an extremely exaggerated maneuver.
"This time it's really a bit thrilling... The last chance to change the track has entered the time window. We should give the command and prepare in advance next time. This operation method has too low fault tolerance."
Hearing Luo Yaping's words, Ye Fuguang, who was sitting opposite, nodded slightly and answered:
"After all, it's the first time to operate, so it's normal to be a little tighter. After that, the process should be optimized properly, and the operation delay should be reduced to less than 20 minutes. By that time, our fault tolerance rate will be greatly improved."
"The First Cause of All Realms"
"That's right, but I always feel that it's still a bit risky. I can't take the situation completely into my own hands, after all, I'm still worried..."
Ye Fuguang looked at him with some amusement and asked back:
"Take the situation completely in your own hands? Do you really treat other people's star links as your own? It's already good to be able to do this at this level."
"Think about what happened to us before? Their satellites just flew over so straight, and they ignored you when you communicated and fought with them head-on. They were not afraid at all."
"Yes, they are just a satellite, and they will hit them. We are a space station! Can you touch them?"
"I feel frustrated, like a scoundrel!"
"We had thought before, otherwise we might as well get a missile for them to shoot, but we can only think about it, and we can't fight it."
"Because one fight will be equivalent to declaring war."
"What about now? Hey, what does it have to do with us when you change your own track?"
"And, according to the current operation method, it is the safest. No matter how much we check, we can't find our heads--we didn't change the data!"
Speaking of this, Ye Fuguang smiled proudly and took apart the pilaf rice that had been heated in front of him, and carefully scooped the rice with a spoon and put it into his mouth.
He dared not speak during meals, otherwise the debris of food would fly into the living compartment, even if it had no negative impact on the equipment, it would pollute the living environment of the space station.
After finally swallowing the food in his mouth, he continued to speak:
"I want me to tell you, the command will definitely stop us from interfering later---we should drag it for a while and run out of all the fuel of their satellite's orbital engines before stopping."
"In the future, they launch a batch, and we will interfere with a batch and turn all the satellites into waste. Let's see if they still do it!"
Hearing this, Luo Yaping spoke helplessly:
"Abide by orders, obey the orders, Brother Ye! Besides, who said that this was what we did? Remember the external caliber. Their track change accident was entirely due to their own system problems."
"I know, I'm also an old comrade. Don't you understand this? Isn't this just a chat and complaining..."
While talking, Ye Fuguang finished the rice bowl in a few seconds. After he packed the remaining garbage in a special storage bag, the communication message from the command center and the Long Spaceship was received at the same time in the space station communication system.
The content of the former is very simple, with only one text:
"Cooperate with the Dragon Spaceship and the opponent's ground command system to restore the Starlink operation."
The latter is a real-time call application.
Luo Yaping glanced at Ye Fuguang, and after seeing the other party nodded, she turned on the communicator and connected to the communication with the Dragon Spaceship through the public channel.
"Hello, this is the Huaxia Space Station, Tiangong No. 2."
"This is the Ugly Kingdom Dragon spacecraft... Have you received a notice from your command system?"
Luo Yaping paused for a moment, then spoke:
"We have received a notice and our command center ordered us to do our best to help you restore the control of the Starlink system. What help do you need?"
Hearing this, Jane on the Dragon Spaceship was so angry that her face was distorted.
What help do you need? Do you still don’t know what help we need?
Turning off your damn interference system will help us the greatest help!
But she couldn't express this idea directly, because she had fully understood the current situation through her previous communication with her command center.
The other party left no evidence, and the whole thing was handled cleanly, just like the track change accident in the Starlink system was really caused by our own improper operation.
They could not admit that they had tampered with each other, and they could not ask.
Because it is equivalent to exposing one's own weaknesses to the public.
Jian took a deep breath, suppressed the intense and turbulent emotions in his heart, and spoke:
"We need to use your system to navigate and calculate the Starlink satellite, and feed the navigation data to us, and readjust the satellite orbit and attitude. Please cooperate."
"Understood."
Luo Yaping replied concisely.
"In half an hour."
Jane's tone was a little stiff, but she still controlled her emotions.
Just as she was about to hang up the communication, Luo Yaping's voice suddenly came from her headphones.
"etc!"
"Is there anything else?"
"Did you forget something?"
The other party's voice was light and calm, and this tone seemed to be no different from that of himself a few days ago.
Jian was stunned for a moment and asked back:
"What did you forget?"
"Forgot to say thank you to us. We have helped you so much, shouldn't you thank you?"
“…….”
Jane's fist clenched in an instant, and she looked at James on the side with a twisted face. The latter calmly took the microphone of the communicator, took a deep breath, and said in an extremely sincere tone:
"Thank you, Tiangong No. 2."
