Chapter 45 Prophecy: A Global Aurora
Hearing the questions coming from beside him, Lu Yongchang sighed deeply.
The worst result came out.
The abnormal activity of the sun was indeed pushed forward by two months!
In addition, the sun’s aging rate is obviously faster than in the previous life!ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ
According to Lu Yongchang's calculations, in about 15 years, the sun will erupt again with a helium flash.
The corners of Lu Yongchang's eyes twitched slightly.
It actually shortened the time by five years!
"Professor Lu?"
Ye Nangeng's urging voice came from the side.
Lu Yongchang struggled to pull the corners of his mouth and showed an ugly smile: "Taiyang, something happened."
…
Half an hour later.
Ye Nangeng stared blankly at Lu Yongchang in front of him.
"Impossible...how is this possible?!"
"So far, the sun has only existed for 4.6 billion years. According to models, it can exist for at least 10 billion years!"
"It, how could it enter the aging stage like this?!"
Ye Nangeng's face turned red, and the gray beard around his mouth trembled slightly. He shouted loudly: "This is absolutely impossible!"
"Your calculation method is definitely wrong! There is no way the sun will enter the red giant stage in just over ten years!"
Facing the emotional Ye Nangeng, Lu Yongchang showed a trace of pity deep in his eyes.
In the last life, when they learned this incredible news, countless scientists collapsed!
No highly educated person believes this conclusion!
However, the facts are before mankind!
The astrophysics edifice that humans spent countless time and energy building has been overthrown so easily!
"Mr. Ye, calm down." Lu Yongchang said softly, "The calculation process is all here. I have just given you a detailed explanation of all the steps that you can't understand."
"Do you think there are loopholes?"
Mr. Ye's expression suddenly suffocated.
It was precisely because he knew that Lu Yongchang's calculation formulas could not find any loopholes that he found it difficult to accept all this!
Mathematics doesn't lie.
In the mathematical model, the sun ages at a rate visible to the naked eye.
Even, in the near future, the sun will enter the red giant stage!
He tremblingly raised his wrinkled hand and pulled off a strand of his beard.
"hiss!"
Mr. Ye took a breath and murmured to himself: "This, this is true..."
The next moment, Mr. Ye suddenly turned his head to look at Lu Yongchang who was standing aside, and grabbed his arm with his skinny right hand: "Professor Lu! Then... what should we do now?!"
Lu Yongchang looked serious and said word by word: "Go to the chairman of the parliament!"
…
Beijing, within the First Ring Road.
Inside the office of the Speaker.
"Yongchang?" The moment he saw Lu Yongchang, Councilor Li showed a faint smile on his face, "What? If you don't study your task of miniaturizing the fusion reactor, why did you come to me when you have time?"
Lu Yongchang's face was full of bitterness. He shook his head slowly and said in a deep voice: "President, I have something very important to report to you!"
Seeing the serious look on Lu Yongchang's face, Councilor Li's expression gradually became serious.
He put down the pen in his hand and said to Lu Yongchang solemnly: "Go ahead."
Lu Yongchang took a deep breath and said slowly: "Senior Councilor, the sun has entered a stage of rapid aging!"
"According to predictions, it will enter the red giant stage within ten years and explode with a helium flash within fifteen years!"
"By then, human civilization will cease to exist!"
"..."
As Lu Yongchang finished speaking, the office of the Speaker fell into silence.
After a long time, the chairman took a deep breath.
"hiss……"
He frowned tightly and tapped the knuckles of his right hand on the desk unconsciously...
"Yongchang, these words you just said... are you sure they are all true?"
Seeing the strong suspicion in the Chairman's eyes, Lu Yongchang nodded helplessly: "Senior Chairman, if you don't believe it, you can find some astronomy experts to verify my speculation."
Councilor Li smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Yongchang, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that you... are a little too outrageous."
Lu Yongchang fell into silence.
The Speaker is right.
To be honest, if he hadn't been reborn and witnessed the helium flash explosion, he wouldn't have believed what he said!
The sun in its prime will enter the red giant stage within ten years and will erupt into a helium flash within fifteen years?
One thing I have to say is that the Chairman of the Assembly treated him well by not kicking him out directly!
"Senior Councilor, Mr. Ye from the Xiaguo Observatory is right outside the door. How about... I call him in and you ask him for his opinion?"
Seeing the chairman of the council nodding, Lu Yongchang quickly opened the door and pulled Ye Nangeng in.
The chairman frowned and looked at Ye Nangeng, who was standing next to Lu Yongchang: "Mr. Ye, do you think Yongchang's prediction is likely?"
Facing the Speaker's question, Ye Nangeng nodded bitterly: "President, I...I didn't find any loopholes."
Although he had expected Ye Nangeng's answer, when the chairman heard this sentence, his pupils shrank to the size of a pinhead in an instant!
"Da... da... da..."
The sound of knuckles tapping on the solid wood desk filled the entire office.
Even though Lu Yongchang was very anxious, he still waited honestly for the chairman of the parliament to make a decision.
After all, in the face of a disaster of this level, without Xia Guo's help, he would never be able to make a "turnaround"!
"Since you both said so, I will believe you for once."
The chairman of the council said solemnly: "I will immediately convene a meeting to verify this situation. If the situation is true..."
"We may have to start thinking about options."
After saying that, the Congressman leaned back on his chair and sighed again.
Lu Yongchang's eyes moved slightly.
"Senior Speaker, according to my speculation, extremely strong aurora will erupt in the skies around the world tonight!"
"This is a sign that the sun has completely entered its aging phase."
The chairman's eyes moved slightly.
As the chairman of the parliament, he naturally knows some basic common sense. Auroras generally only appear over the Antarctic or the North Pole.
As for the global aurora outbreak...
The last time this happened was in 1958, when solar activity exploded violently!
The current solar activity is obviously not enough to support the explosion of such a magnificent scene!
Therefore, he nodded slightly: "Okay, I understand."
"If a global aurora really breaks out, I think... your inference will be more convincing!"
As he said that, the chairman of the assembly glanced at Lu Yongchang meaningfully.
…
That night.
Chapter completed!
