Chapter 614: Deterrence and warning, the engine can destroy satellites!
"Not only the satellite code and images, but also the orbit of the satellite?"
"Impossible, how did they know the orbital data?"
“The photos are very clear!”
"Judging from the photo, it should be an AI image fed back by radar signals. Is it accurate?"
The senior officials discussed nervously and immediately contacted the satellite center for confirmation and received a reply quickly, "We have verified the data of 21 satellites, and the images and orbit data are very accurate."
"The orbits of four of the satellites can be adjusted. Those orbital data are all the latest, indicating that these data were detected within seven days."
This result made senior officials even more nervous.
The announcement lists 29 satellite codes, images and orbital data.
The orbits of some satellites are very close to the so-called "space military control area", and the farthest is no more than 500 kilometers. Some satellites will enter the "space military control area".
It also includes two conventional military reconnaissance satellites belonging to American and a newly launched low-Earth orbit spy satellite. The orbits of the three satellites will pass over the light pressure engine experimental base because they are specially used for
Came to investigate the experimental base.
As a result, several satellites were tagged, including satellite images and orbit data.
The only thing that is not marked is the code name, because there is only one number in the satellite code, so it is naturally impossible for other countries and institutions to know it.
Now that the announcement has released images and orbital data of so many satellites, it means that they may have detailed data on all satellites with an altitude of 1,000 kilometers.
The result of this inference is terrible.
Conventionally, satellite photos and orbital data at an altitude of several hundred kilometers can only be obtained through military satellite tracking.
It is impossible to use radar monitoring to obtain satellite images and trajectories using existing technology.
Most of the satellites with higher orbits in space can only be used for ground detection. It is too difficult to target the same satellites in space, because the satellites are too small in space. Whether it is positioning detection or tracking, it is really difficult.
It's too high.
Ground radar detection methods are even more impossible.
Various major countries have also built large-scale radar base station facilities on the ground, specifically used to monitor satellites in space. However, even with the most advanced technology, the monitoring height of the largest radar base station will not exceed two hundred kilometers.
This is mainly because the atmosphere will strongly interfere with signals from the ground to space.
So if you want to get the images and trajectory data of a satellite, the only thing you can think of is tracking it with other satellites. Only through continuous tracking can you calculate the orbit data.
The current announcement is that there is a lot of accurate satellite data, including data labeled "unknown", which is undisclosed military satellites.
All top officials know what it means.
Once the accurate orbit data of the satellite is known, ground missiles can be used to destroy the satellite. The altitude of several hundred kilometers is not too high for ground missiles, and conventional medium-range missiles can reach it.
The speed of missiles is very fast.
The average speed of medium-range missiles exceeds one kilometer per second. The average speed of high-performance medium-range missiles can even exceed Mach 8, which is nearly three thousand meters per second. Even if the climbing speed is relatively slow, it can easily exceed one kilometer.
per second.
In other words, it only takes ten minutes for a ground-based medium-range missile to climb hundreds of kilometers from launch to launch.
Of course, the missile trajectory will not be that accurate, but the deviation can also be compensated for by saturation attacks. For a satellite with a determined trajectory, two or three missiles are enough.
Relatively speaking, the trajectory of the satellite has been locked, and even if it can be controlled, it is too late to dodge.
In order for the satellite to dodge, it must first detect the missile and learn that the satellite is locked for attack, and then perform manual control. The control is not as simple as operating a car, and there is no time to adjust in ten minutes.
Therefore, the release of so much accurate data can be regarded as a 'space deterrence' in itself.
The question is, how did they do it?
Senior officials immediately started discussing, "Is there an internal leak?"
"A spy?"
"We must conduct internal and external investigations and investigate carefully!"
"This is unlikely. Their spies are rare. Is it possible that they have mastered ultra-high-end radar technology?"
When this point of view was raised, everyone was immediately silenced.
Ten years ago, there would have been a lot of opposition. They didn't believe that flower growers could master any high-end radar technology, and it was so high-end that it could conduct detailed detection of satellites in space.
Now……
Flower growers have already mastered so many unimaginable high-end technologies, so adding another ultra-high-end radar technology doesn’t seem to be a big deal?
"What kind of ultra-high-end radar technology is it?"
The officials present could not figure it out, so they immediately consulted radar technical experts.
Institutions related to military radar research and development also discussed the content of the announcement. They analyzed it faster than senior officials and quickly determined that it was radar technology.
Satellite images have already illustrated the problem.
Those satellite images were obviously synthesized using AI technology using signals detected by radar.
After detailed discussions, they came to the conclusion, "It is very likely that flower growers have mastered first-order radar technology."
"If you want to monitor satellites at an altitude of hundreds of kilometers, conventional radar cannot do it."
"Our radar technology is the most advanced. If they can monitor satellites, they must have used higher-end technology. The only one that can be thought of is first-order radar..."
When the results of this analysis were revealed, most people confirmed that the flower growers were the birthplace of the 'first-order technology' and had mastered the first-order material manufacturing technology. They were also the first to discover the first-order wave.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The first one discovered was the first-order green light wave, and later several first-order wave-related results were released.
Other countries are also conducting continuous research, but the biggest results are only to create waves of a certain frequency, either light waves or low-frequency infrared waves. The highest-end ones only reach ultraviolet frequencies.
Radar waves are high-frequency pulse short waves.
First-order high-frequency pulse short wave, let alone stable production, they are just thinking about the concept at most.
Therefore, they simply cannot imagine the specific effects of the first-order radar, but if it can detect satellites, they have no doubt at all.
The current announcement confirms this.
After the analysis and confirmation, the senior executives of Amrican suddenly panicked. Initially, it was the officials from the Hexagon Building. Later, the No. 1 decision-maker also felt panicked when he heard the news. They didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so they could only convene an emergency meeting.
High-level meeting.
This also includes an international relations response team serving decision maker No. 1.
What the international relations response team considers is not technology or how the other party controls the satellite orbits, but the purpose of the other party's announcement...
"Is it a deterrent?"
"It should be a deterrent to demonstrate their ultra-high-end technology."
"It has something to do with the space testing of the light pressure engine. I guess you want to ensure the safety of the engine in space, right?"
"This should be……"
“How are we going to respond?”
This is a question that senior officials should think about. What they initially considered was to control other satellite tracking and detection, but now they don't know whether to continue.
They only like to fight sure battles.
Now I have no idea what the situation is, and I am not sure at all. What if something goes wrong?
What should we do if something goes wrong, the situation cannot be controlled, and a war breaks out?
It is impossible to fight a conventional war now. They are simply unable to deal with the threat of airships and flying saucers. The opponent can use airships and flying saucers to easily wipe out overseas bases and aircraft carrier fleets, and even directly threaten the homeland.
How to deal with it when the time comes?
Are we going to fight a nuclear-bomb war that will destroy mankind?
…
Americen's senior management discussed that the purpose of the announcement was to act as a deterrent.
Actually, it's a warning.
The flower growers have no idea of deterrence at all. They have mastered the most high-end technology, and it is enough to use it to deter airships, ships and flying saucers.
The announcement is being issued now to warn all countries and institutions not to send other satellites for reconnaissance and monitoring, because the time, speed, and trajectory of the space test of the light pressure engine only take into account the satellites included in the announcement, which means that the test process will not interfere with
Announcement of satellite operations.
If other satellites enter the controlled area, deviate from their orbit due to engine testing, or even malfunction and crash, they will no longer be responsible for this because they have been given a 'warning'.
The space test of the light pressure engine is open to the public, and there is no fear of being monitored. The altitude will not exceed 1,200 kilometers, and it will definitely be monitored by higher satellites.
A single satellite cannot track and monitor the light pressure engine, but it can take a large number of images of a designated area and analyze the test process. There is no point in keeping it secret.
In addition, they are conducting public testing and will also conduct live broadcasts during the testing process and announce some specific pictures and test content.
Spaceships and industrial companies just hope that the test can go smoothly without any accidents happening in the process. What goes smoothly is the best.
The reason why the space military control area is set is that during the test of the light pressure engine, the gravitational shield will be turned on throughout the entire process, and two gravitational shield equipment will be turned on.
If a satellite enters the gravitational shield area, its orbit will definitely deviate or even cause a serious malfunction.
In addition, they will also experiment with laser weapons in space. The power of laser weapons will be appropriately reduced, and the coverage range can easily reach thousands of kilometers.
Although during the test, the probability of the laser weapon hitting a satellite was extremely small, there may be unlucky satellites that were hit.
That's why they issued an announcement to warn against other satellites entering the area.
Although they kindly remind other countries and institutions not to send other satellites for monitoring and tracking, other countries and institutions do not understand it this way.
The announcement of the space military control zone caused an uproar in the international community, with heated discussions and a large number of media reports.
Some countries and institutions have expressed dissatisfaction with this, and some influential figures have also expressed their opinions, "Space is common to all countries, and a distance of 100 kilometers is beyond the territorial scope!"
"The establishment of military control areas in space is inconsistent with international law and has no basis..."
The internationally recognized minimum altitude for airspace is 22.2 kilometers (12 nautical miles) above sea level, but some countries set this altitude as higher.
For example, Amrikon's lowest altitude is 25.3 kilometers (13.7 nautical miles).
The 1919 Paris Convention and the 1944 Chicago Convention both established the principle of "air sovereignty", which means that contracting states have sovereignty over the air space above their territories.
As human flight activities enter outer space, the upper limit of airspace has become unclear. Most international law experts maintain that outer space does not belong to the scope of airspace. Some countries have defaulted that space above 85 kilometers does not belong to the scope of airspace.
Some countries believe that more than 100 kilometers is the upper limit of airspace, while some major countries believe that 200 kilometers can be regarded as the upper limit of airspace.
After the success of the Apollo manned lunar landing program, American proposed that American's airspace range starts from the ground of its territory and reaches 380,000 kilometers from the height of the moon.
However, in practice, they still have little jurisdiction over satellites and other orbiting objects that pass over their homeland.
Of course, the main reason is that there is no way to regulate it.
The current military restricted area set at a height of 1,200 kilometers is indeed far beyond the default height of international law and major powers.
Amid the hot public opinion, a comment from Asanguo made a noise, "Setting the so-called altitude of 1,200 kilometers has no meaning at all, and flower growers have no jurisdiction at all."
"Even if satellites are sent into the area for reconnaissance, what can they do?"
In response to this, the announcer's answer was eight words, "You can try it, but you will be responsible for the consequences!"
There are consequences at your own risk, it's okay.
It's quite interesting if you add 'you can try' in front of it.
What outside public opinion doesn't know is that many countries and institutions hope that Asanguo can "give it a try" as a leader.
Ameriken's top brass are discussing endlessly, and they don't know how to respond. They want to send other satellites to test, but they are worried about the consequences of major conflicts.
The satellite orbit data released in the announcement is a killer weapon with extremely high deterrent power.
High-level representatives contacted Asanguo privately, hoping that Asanguo would come forward to "give it a try" and even promised to provide some high-end satellite technology in the future.
At the same time, public opinion still revolves around the announcement.
A large number of experts came forward to analyze the content of the announcement and the light pressure engine itself. "The announcement indicates all satellite images and orbital data that pass through or approach the relevant areas."
"This shows that the flower growers have mastered all the satellite data thousands of kilometers away, and their detection method is likely to be ground radar. In other words, they have mastered the ultra-high-end technology of detecting satellites with ground radar."
"This is very shocking space radar technology."
"In addition, they specifically announced the military control area, which is probably related to the test itself."
"What is certain is that the light pressure engine is equipped with a laser weapon. The air hundreds of kilometers away is extremely thin. The power and range of the laser weapon will be greatly improved. The coverage can easily reach hundreds or thousands of kilometers."
"We have mastered accurate space detection technology, and have laser weapons that cover ultra-long distances and can be used in space. The light pressure engine can instantly destroy satellites within a range of hundreds of kilometers in space..."
