In the blink of an eye, six months passed quickly. With the completion of the last project, the "Noah" has been safely stored in the core of the "Future" mothership. All the docking work is also in place.
In this era, with the significant advancement of technology, Noah already has the ability to navigate the stars independently. There are some spare small nuclear fusion devices inside, coupled with the curvature engine extending to the outside, it can also achieve stellar-level interstellar navigation.
Sailing.
Although the surface hull of the Noah is extremely hard and almost undamaged, the additional equipment is all manufactured by the new humans themselves. As long as these external curvature engines are destroyed, the spacecraft will lose its maneuverability.
, so the safety perspective is far inferior to the "Future Number" with a huge fault tolerance rate.
Until the critical moment of life and death crisis, it is impossible for the "Noah", the home of new mankind, to escape and fly alone.
The relocation of the Chiyanjiao people is also in progress... They have arrived in a new environment and will have to learn a new system.
At the same time, they will also begin to implement internal autonomy, the entire population will become more free, and the racial hierarchy will gradually be abandoned.
Of course, they have to leave all the production of daily necessities to themselves. Only by being independent can they achieve greater achievements. Flowers in the greenhouse can never be used.
And this day is also the testing time for the anti-matter main gun of the "Future".
At seven o'clock in the morning, the heads of the government, senior military officials and some journalists had gathered on the observatory on the side of the spacecraft.
This "anti-matter main gun", along with the super-light anti-matter missile, is the most powerful war weapon of the new humanity. However, the super-light anti-matter missile is an extremely expensive consumable, which is equivalent to... scrapping a curvature spacecraft at once.
Its technology is relatively mature and there is no need to use it for trial use.
Therefore, the anti-matter cannon, a super weapon, is already considered the strongest conventional killer weapon of the new humanity.
A scientist licked his dry lips and explained to the large group of reporters in front of him: "The yield of this test is... one hundred tons of antimatter, with an energy level equivalent to 4.3 trillion tons of TNT. The main force it ejected
It's an antiproton, not the old positron."
"Although some super nuclear bombs can also achieve this kind of power, the flight speed and concentration of blasting power of nuclear bombs are far inferior to those of anti-matter cannons. One hundred tons, this is only ten percent of the maximum power of this main gun.
One, or even one percent!”
"It's not easy to accelerate a hundred tons of material to close to the speed of light. Well... the speed of this cannon is about 90% of the speed of light. Only a spacecraft with such huge power as the Future can barely bear the load."
"...I think the explosion range of this gun will not be too large, but it will be deeper!" the expert said passionately.
One of the reporters stood up and asked with a smile: "So, can this antimatter main gun destroy a planet? Can our technology destroy a planet as big as the Earth?"
The scientist smiled awkwardly and secretly cursed in his mind whether this reporter understood science? He wanted to blow up the planet with a trillion tons equivalent?
He sorted out his thoughts and said: "... To destroy a planet as big as the Earth and to completely blow it into pieces would require... 70 trillion tons of TNT. You can count how many zeros you have."
Upon hearing this number, the female reporter who asked the question opened her mouth wide.
The scientist didn't pay much attention and continued: "This energy level is not something our current spacecraft can possess. Before we seriously build a Dyson sphere and obtain huge energy at the star level, it is not very possible.
After calculation, the total amount of solar energy in about a week can completely blow the earth into pieces... which is equivalent to about 1.25 trillion tons of antimatter."
"This mass is a hundred times heavier than our entire Future."
"But having said that, it would be much simpler to break into several large pieces like the original explosion of the earth. As we all know, the interior of the earth is a hot liquid, not a solid. We can take advantage of this feature..."
He began to analyze in detail how to use more energy to crack the earth, just like when the earth really exploded... The explosion of the earth did not explode into powder, but cracked open. New humans do still have the ability.
of.
During the interview, time passed by minute by second. At 8 o'clock in the morning, Yu Yifeng issued a few orders with a serious expression:
"Start the anti-particle acceleration program."
"Staff please be prepared."
"Observers prepare..."
The energy indicator light of the anti-matter cannon has already lit up on the screen. Under the calm appearance of the "Future", there is a powerful power like turbulence, which also makes everyone's heart beat slightly faster.
This scientist who appeared on TV did not tell lies.
It is actually quite difficult to accelerate one hundred tons of antimatter to a sub-light speed. After approaching the speed of light, relativistic effects are already involved. Every increase in speed requires a huge amount of energy.
At 90% of the speed of light, the dynamic mass of matter will become more than twice the normal mass. This energy needs to be provided by the "Future". Assuming that the acceleration process of 100 tons of antimatter takes 100 seconds, during this period, the power of the entire spacecraft
Up to...1.67*10^20 watts.
This power is about a thousand times that of the solar energy received by the entire earth.
"But it's still far from destroying the star!"
"So, it is really too much to think about things like annihilating stars at every turn. It is only possible to build a Dyson sphere or a planet-level spacecraft." Yu Yifeng sighed inwardly.
"Launch!" He solemnly announced when he saw the indicator light on the screen jump to the red area.
Everyone only saw an unusually bright white light ejected from the muzzle, like a white dragon, which lasted for about 3 seconds.
This white light hit the ground in an instant, and a super violent explosion occurred!
The explosion of the antimatter particle beam does not spread violently around like a nuclear bomb. Instead, it looks relatively mild and stays within a certain area. But everyone knows that this "mildness" represents something more powerful.
destructive ability.
The light that shot up into the sky completely dazzled the eyes, and many people couldn't help but close their eyelids. The light stimulated tears, and they couldn't figure out what happened.
"The observation system is affected by gamma rays and is overloaded..."
"Activate the backup device!"
"Remaining antiparticles detected..."
A group of staff are busy recording the specific data after the antimatter explosion. Theoretically, the explosion power of antiprotons is stronger than that of antielectrons of the same mass. This is because antielectrons may react with conventional substances such as neutrons.
, to generate protons, thus a considerable part of the mass will be wasted, and not all of it will be annihilated.
Near the main gun, a large amount of liquid nitrogen cooling devices emitted white mist. Some spacecraft staff were also testing the wear and tear of the main gun.
In half an hour, these data were displayed on the screen one by one, and an atmosphere of joy filled the air.
Xu Yunjin also raised his eyebrows and was extremely happy. Basically, everything was in line with expectations, indicating that this test was quite successful.
Looking again, a large pit ten kilometers wide has appeared on the surface, almost bottomless!
"congratulations!"
"Joining the same joy, sharing the same joy, is the joint contribution of everyone!"
Several designers and engineers have begun to applaud each other, and the applause is getting more and more enthusiastic.
After a few minutes, Yu Yifeng coughed lightly: "Everyone, this time the weapon test was a complete success. After everyone goes back, analyze the data to see if there is anything that can be improved in depth. After all, we tested
It’s the minimum power, and minimum and maximum are completely different.”
"Also, if everything is in place, we should set off again, the target... the Knicks! Today is probably our last night of stay!"
