Ye Han rubbed the sun: "Intercepting asteroids must not be that simple, otherwise the asteroids wouldn't have bombarded us for a month last time."
Qu Jiang was stunned for a moment: "By the way, why didn't you hear about any country intercepting asteroids last time?"
"No one has noticed at all, how can we intercept it?" Ye Han said.
"Isn't it possible? Then no one has discovered a large group of asteroids?" Qu Jiang didn't believe it at all.
"Asteroids... are not that easy to find." Ye Han sighed and explained in as simple a language as possible, "Asteroids are too small and difficult to see with a telescope. By the time you find it, it will have already left.
The Earth is very close, unless it drags a big tail like a comet."
The actual situation is not that simple, but it is very troublesome to explain in detail, and Ye Han's understanding is not that comprehensive, so he cannot fully explain the reasons to Qu Jiang.
"Then how did you discover it so early this time?" Qu Jiang immediately grasped the key point.
"I don't know." Ye Han said, "It may be that the asteroid group is too large, or it may be too large, or it may be that the flash of light from Jupiter's impact exposed the asteroid group... When the impact occurred, the world's
All telescopes are looking at Jupiter, so I think this last one is the most likely."
Qu Jiang sighed bitterly and shook his head: "If it weren't for the official document from above, I wouldn't believe this mess... Is this the content on the document? Nothing else?"
Ye Han continued to read, skipping all the content about celestial bodies: "Later, let's make preparations to expand the enrollment scale, speed up training, and expand the force into a squadron as soon as possible based on the existing two squads...
...The squadron has four to six squadrons, each with five to seven people. I will temporarily act as the squadron leader. The next plan is to expand the unit into a group, battalion-level, and Bian Ge will temporarily act as the group leader."
"What about the time limit?"
"The sooner the better." Ye Han said and put down the document, "We have a lot of students. Expanding a squadron is not a problem at all, but there are not so many qualified students to continue expanding."
"Extraordinary times do extraordinary things. Since you can master power armor in two days, so can others!" Qu Jiang breathed out heavily, "Speed up the teaching progress, cut off all unnecessary courses, and give all
Qualified trainees will be able to print powered armor. I will apply to my superiors for a few more 3D printers to speed up the armor printing. Bian Ge won’t be able to come back for the time being, so you must start the formation of the army together with the training of trainees.”
"No problem, I'll do my best," Ye Han said.
"You don't have to worry about the laboratory, I will definitely arrange the security issues." Qu Jiang said.
Ye Han smiled bitterly: "Don't say that, you are the real dean.
"I'm a technician, and I think this dean is trying to catch up. You don't know. I've made several reports. I want to hand over the dean to others and go back to the laboratory to study power armor. The superiors just don't agree. Alas.
——" Qu Jiang's frowning face showed no trace of disguise.
However, no one could entrust the position of dean to Ye Han, and Ye Han was helpless. This was probably why Qu Jiang was willing to say these things.
In the following period, the sportswear academy went all out. Ye Han organized an assessment involving all students. The assessment scope covered all training subjects, comprehensively ranked the quality of the students, and initially determined the order of absorbing personnel based on their performance rankings.
.
Although the price of power armor cannot keep up with that of fighter jets, it is not a piece of cabbage that can be found everywhere. It does not mean you have good training results to qualify for power armor. The personality of the trainees must also be taken into consideration.
There are hundreds of people of all kinds. Ye Han has indeed encountered several strange people in his several years of military career. He is extremely disgusted with the kind of scum that looks for trouble and harms others without benefiting himself. Therefore, he will never accept such people into Thunder
.
After understanding the students' character flaws, Ye Han finally came up with an expanded list. He had already prepared a laboratory with various materials and immediately started building power armor for the new team members.
The intensive mobilization of the power plant is just a microcosm of the mobilization of the entire army.
In just a few days, all major countries in the world have received notifications from the five major countries, and the five major countries themselves are doing their best to build a space defense system.
The first step in building a defense system is to aim several space telescopes at the asteroid group, lock the position of the asteroid group day and night, and use a series of technical means to measure the number, volume and elemental composition of the asteroid to provide information for the interception plan.
First-hand information.
The second step of the plan is to establish a complete near-Earth early warning system, which does not require far-reaching distance. It only needs to be able to detect asteroids a few days in advance.
This step is also easy to complete. Installing a special high-power radar on the International Space Station, supplemented by a space telescope, is not a dream to discover near-Earth asteroids in advance.
The third step of the plan is to do our best to build a space interception network.
As we all know, the cost of launching aircraft from the earth to space is high. The only countries in the world with manned space capabilities are China, the United States and Russia. There are more countries with launch capabilities, but they are just a few. It can be calculated on ten fingers.
.
In four months, just relying on a few countries to establish a complete defense system is simply a dream, and they cannot even build a few launch vehicles.
Are there any spacecrafts that can be launched at any time or that can be launched as soon as possible?
Of course there is, but the quantity is too small. At most, a few hundred tons of materials can be sent into space in a short period of time. A few hundred tons of materials are not even a drop in the bucket for a huge defense system.
Modifying intercontinental missiles is a good plan, but modification also takes a long time. Moreover, intercontinental missiles are the last layer of defense for the earth. If all the intercontinental missiles are consumed in order to transport supplies to space, when the asteroid swarm flies to the earth,
, human beings don’t even have the last resort to protect themselves.
What should I do if my defense plan is aborted before it even begins?
The aerospace departments of various countries have to sit together and discuss plans based on existing resources. Simply put, how to use these hundreds of tons of materials to solve the imminent defense problem. As for the follow-up defense plan, it can completely solve the problem of the impending impact on the earth.
Slowly filling up after the asteroid.
The simplest nuclear bomb bombing plan was the first to be rejected. A nuclear warhead of several hundred tons is enough, but without a carrier to carry the nuclear warhead, what is the use of nuclear warheads alone?
With the existing technology, it is not possible to manufacture the carrier required for nuclear warheads. We can also use separate guidance technology to smash as many nuclear warheads as possible into asteroid groups with one rocket and multiple bombs.
But this kind of carrier must be able to hit high-speed flying asteroids. In that case, the carrier's flight capability must not be too bad, and it must also have extremely strong target capture capabilities. How many space missiles can be assembled with a load of several hundred tons?
