At the end of the summer of Tianyuan 31, the world's major leaders bid farewell to the two fleets at the Shuguang Space Base and the Asgard Space Base respectively.
According to the plan, the fleet will start the exercise process tens of millions of kilometers away from Tianyuan Star and allow each other to attack.
This military exercise is not just playing tricks. Although rail guns and other large-scale killer weapons have been replaced by gunpowder weapons, the power is still relatively objective. If you are not careful, you may cause death or injury.
Even if the spacecraft disintegrates, the Yuanying stage will not be able to last a few days in space. The rescue time of the Transformation stage is only one month.
Although the power of stars in space is strong, the radiation is even greater!
…………
In the void, a fleet 'slowly' advanced. On the spacecraft leading the fleet, there was a large, shining cross star logo. This is the technology of the Ocean Group.
But in this spaceship, the military commander of the Ocean Group, Murong Shan, was conducting a pre-war mobilization meeting. Participating in the meeting were military generals, staff officers, and... scientific advisors from all ASEAN parties!
Scientific advisers directly participate in military wars, which is the first feature of the Starry Sky Age. Let’s not talk about anything else. If there is something wrong with the spacecraft, especially the core power system, ordinary maintenance employees are useless. At this time, relevant personnel must be involved
experts participated.
But real experts are treasures, and they cannot be too many, let alone crammed into the spacecraft. Then a new profession was born: scientific consultant.
In fact, the position of scientific advisor has long existed within Dayang Group. Zhang Hao was the first to have a scientific advisor around him.
The original scientific advisors were scholars. They had a general understanding of various sciences and technologies, but not in depth. However, this general understanding was enough. They existed as scientific advisory secretaries around Zhang Hao, making it easier for Zhang Hao to
Hao understands the overall technological development of Dayang Group.
But later, as technology developed, the responsibilities of scientific advisors continued to evolve, and the character of the profession continued to change.
Until now, they have become "comprehensive technical guidance and maintenance guidance" specialists. They know most of the technology (surface level) and can repair most of the faults - those that cannot be repaired have basically lost their repair value, so it is better to replace them.
new.
They are not scientists, researchers, or engineers, but they can do a little bit of everything.
This is a typical example of understanding everything and being sparse in everything. However, in the development of space, such personnel have become talents that are in short supply by all parties.
Take spacecraft technology as an example. A spacecraft is a system project. No technical staff can understand all the technologies. But scientific consultants can!
In fact, scientific consultants themselves are not that easy. After they coordinate and understand a system project, they are likely to become top engineers, system integration representatives, etc. The boundaries between them and scientific researchers, engineering and technical personnel are very blurred.
.
But the good thing is that because such people are not exposed to core technologies and their understanding is mainly superficial, it is relatively easy to train them and they are not afraid of leaking secrets.
For example, now, there is a scientific consultant in astronomy, Wang Hong, explaining space things to everyone. Like Wang Hong, the Ocean Group has trained too many young and promising talents over the years. But I can speak here.
, which is enough to show that Wang Hong himself is extraordinary.
"Everyone, the reason why we want to compete for the satellites of Jupiter this time is because the satellite we discovered named 'Legend' is indeed legendary enough. It has the conditions to develop into a space habitation, and of course it also has the potential to develop into a space habitation."
Conditions of industrial areas.
This is why in this military exercise, we will allow real combat with swords and guns!
Please listen to me explain in detail. Only by understanding the value of this satellite can you understand how much Dayang Group has paid for this military exercise.
Because this satellite was originally discovered by Dayang Group. Later launches of detectors and other tasks were also carried out independently by Dayang Group."
Then, Wang Hong opened a document, and an icy planet that looked a bit reddish-brown appeared on the screen.
"This is a 'legendary' satellite. Its diameter is larger than the moon, with a diameter of 9,000 kilometers. In terms of volume, it is almost twice the size of the moon. However, because the satellite contains a large amount of ice, as well as a large amount of solid ammonia and carbon dioxide
Wait, its density is just over 2 points.
Therefore, the surface gravity of the legendary satellite is only 1.3! It is almost only one-eighth of the surface gravity of Venus.
if……"
"Wait!" Shu Bennan, the military commander from the Kingdom of Qixia, spoke. The guard who followed Wu Fanghai back then has now grown into one of the leaders of the Star Fleet of the Kingdom of Qixia.
When everyone looked over, Shu Bennan asked: "Since almost all of this satellite is water, what industrial value does it have?"
Wang Hong smiled softly and slowly said three words: "Nuclear fusion!"
Then, Wang Hongcai continued: "According to our exploration, the proportion of heavy water on the Legend satellite is more than one thousandth! Yes, one thousandth. On the Tianyuan star, the proportion of heavy water is less than two thousandths.
It is close to Jupiter, and we believe that most of its heavy hydrogen comes from Jupiter, or material in the early universe when Jupiter was formed.
According to our calculations, if all the heavy hydrogen contained in the legendary satellite is extracted, it can support our current industrial development needs for tens of thousands of years! Such a long time must be enough for us to enter the advanced civilization sequence!
And surrounding the legendary satellites are many satellites of Jupiter, which have sufficient mineral resources."
Everyone took a breath of air, and this time they truly understood the value of this satellite.
Wang Hong continued: "According to our exploration, this satellite actually has a magnetic field! This is the only satellite with a magnetic field found so far in our galaxy.
More importantly, among the planets that we are currently exploring that have solid surfaces, legendary satellites are the rare ones that have the conditions to be transformed into habitable places.
Because of the magnetic field, there is a considerable atmosphere on the legendary satellite, and the atmosphere is rich in oxygen and ozone.
The atmosphere on the legendary satellite is 80 kilometers thick. Because of the planet's low gravity, the atmospheric pressure is one-eighth that of Venus.
But this atmosphere is already very impressive. If the temperature is not taken into account, this atmosphere is enough for some plants to grow! It is enough for practitioners in the foundation-building period to carry out normal activities!"
Everyone listened and became more and more amazed. Sure enough, such a planet has the potential to be transformed into a habitable place. It just needs to be warmed up. Warming up is such a simple thing.
Although only Dayang Group is currently testing nuclear fusion technology, everyone believes that it will not be long before nuclear fusion technology becomes popular. Because Dayang Group does not hide the technology of nuclear fusion.
Under such circumstances, the value of the ‘Legend’ satellite has become immeasurable.
As for practitioners in the foundation-building period, they are embarrassed to say that they are practitioners on the current Tianyuan Star - Dayang Group's adult standard is 18 years old and has reached the golden elixir cultivation level; when both standards are reached, ID cards will be issued
, so bad that I don’t even have an ID card.
In this way, Ocean Group has indeed paid too much to take out the "Legend" satellite as a reward for this space military exercise. And everyone must win over this planet.
Seeing the determination in everyone's eyes, Murong Shan's lips twitched a little - in fact, Mr. Zhang said that the 'Legend' satellite is a bit useless. What we are aiming at is a planet discovered at the outermost edge of the galaxy. And there is no competition for the Legend satellite.
So simple!
It was an icy planet with a diameter of about 30,000 kilometers. Mr. Zhang named it ‘Pluto’.
However, the value of the ‘Legend’ satellite cannot be denied.
Once you know the value of this satellite, you will naturally have to fight hard to control this satellite in your own hands.
At this time, the fleets of the ASEAN, the Western Alliance and the Xuanhuang Group will circle the sun and sprint towards the target according to the plan. The first phase of the military exercise will last for one year, during which reinforcements will be allowed.
Time ticked by. After everyone unified their thoughts, they began to discuss space tactics.
At present, our weapons are mainly gunpowder weapons. Due to technological advancement, the flight speed of cannonballs in space is 20 times the speed of sound - there is no atmospheric obstruction, making the cannonballs faster.
However, 20 times the speed of sound is only 10 kilometers per second. Fortunately, our fleet is not far away - according to regulations, it is about 500,000 kilometers. But it can be adjusted according to the actual situation. After all, this is an interstellar battle, and we cannot be as restrained as on the ground.
.
500,000 kilometers, the artillery shell needs to fly for 13 to 14 hours! This can fully simulate the battle in the starry sky environment.
According to the analysis of the data obtained from Xuanwu Mountain, the combat distance of the warships of Xuanhuang Civilization and Red River Civilization was up to tens of millions of kilometers away.
A distance of 500,000 kilometers is simply a stone’s throw away in a space battle!
Seeing that the countdown was about to end, Murong Shan stood in the command room, quietly watching the technicians calculate the attack route.
According to detection, the current distance between the main force of the fleet and the opponent is 513,000 kilometers. It is necessary to calculate the flight time, trajectory, and time consumed by the speed of light propagation of the artillery shells, and also consider the interference of the sun's gravity during the flight of the artillery shells.
If you fly for 14 hours, gravity really cannot be ignored.
The sun's gravity is at the orbit of Tianyuan Star, and the gravitational acceleration is 0.006 meters per square second. 14 hours is enough for the cannonball's speed to change/increase in the direction perpendicular to the sun by 302 meters per second, and the vertical displacement can reach 7,600 kilometers - such an error, even if
Even if you aim at Venus, you will miss the target! Let alone aim at a spacecraft.
Even if the cannonball is launched into outer space in a direction perpendicular to the sun, the cannonball will 'fall' after flying for a period of time and hit you on the head.
At a speed of 10 kilometers per second, it is still unable to escape the gravity of the sun!
These information rolled through Murong Shan's mind. When the countdown ended, Murong Shan immediately gave the order: Fire!
A space-age ‘war’ with exercises but also competition has broken out!
(For example: RDX has an explosion speed of 8750 meters/second, which can theoretically produce bullets with a speed of 8750 meters/second. The latest total nitrogen anion salt explosion is even more powerful. Relying on the power of the explosion, it can theoretically produce bullets capable of
