But it was said that Feng Songjie and most of the crew were admiring the situation of Canopus. During the previous flight, many situations of Canopus had been detected.
According to the star map, the current galaxy should be called the 'Old Man' constellation', or it can also be called the 'South Pole Constellation'. It is said that this is the southernmost point of the celestial star chart, close to the edge of the desolate starry sky.
Further outward, there are very few stars, and it begins to approach the more desolate outer space of large galaxies.
However, this so-called edge of the starry sky should be said to be the 'edge of a large galaxy'. The Ocean Group has used astronomical knowledge to determine that most of the areas marked on the weekly star map should belong to large galaxies.
From here, the starry sky beyond Canopus is sparsely populated; looking inward, that is, towards the core of the large galaxy, it is all brilliant.
This large galaxy is named the Milky Way Galaxy within the Ocean Group.
The current division of the starry sky by the Ocean Group is mainly based on the Zhoutian Starry Map from the Xuanhuang Civilization. The starry sky is divided into four directions with four elephants and mythical beasts; within the galaxy, it is divided into three walls.
Use the "Four Symbols" to distinguish large star fields, use "Xingxiu" to distinguish large star fields; then use "Xingguan" to distinguish the main stars; the remaining stars are named around the Xingguan.
But generally speaking, the interior of Sanyuan is called the "star official", and the outer starry sky represented by the four images is called the "constellation". Sometimes the constellation is also used as a supplement to the star official; in simple metaphor, the "star official"
It is a municipality directly under the Central Government, while 'Xingxing' is a prefecture-level city.
But even so, there are billions of stars in the universe, and only a few can be named. For example, the galaxy where Tianyuan Star is located is not on the star map at all.
From the star map, the galaxy where Tianyuan Star is located belongs to the "management" scope of the "Canopus Constellation"!
If the naming method of the weekly star chart is followed, the Tianyuan star galaxy should be named:
Unfortunately, there is no location for the Tianyuan star galaxy on the star map.
In general, the division of the starry sky is: Zhoutian Xingdou/Galaxy Galaxy → Sanyuan and Sifang Starry Sky → Constellations → Xingguan/Constellation.
Among them, Xingguan is in the "administrative division" of Xingkong, because it belongs to a "municipality", and its status is equivalent to that of "Xingxiu" in name only.
In this way, at least an approximate range of the starry sky can be determined. This range can be as large as two to three hundred light years, or as small as thirty or fifty light years.
According to the data obtained from the Xuanhuang Civilization, in Sanyuan, in the important areas of the Sifang starry sky, the scale can almost be determined to ten light years through accurate star maps.
However, the scale of ten light years is still very large. For ordinary civilizations, even for civilizations that have just stepped out of their own galaxy, it is still a far distance.
But now is the first time for everyone to break out of their own galaxy and see other galaxies, including stars with the name "Star Officer" on the star map.
According to the records of the Xuanhuang Civilization, it is not so casual for a star to be 'named'. It must be bright enough to be used as coordinates for interstellar navigation.
In this world, the bright stars themselves are an important source of star power. The star power generated by these star officials covers the entire large galaxy, which is the Tianhe Galaxy, and affects the life and practice of the entire Tianhe Galaxy, including
All kinds of monsters and other non-human life forms.
In short, this is the first time that the Tianyuan Star civilization has come into contact with an extrasolar star! And the current Canopus is actually a binary star system, which shocked everyone even more.
It turns out that there really can be two suns in the sky. However, because of these two suns, there are many planets in the Old Man Star System, but they are all extremely desolate and without the slightest breath of life.
During the journey to Canopus, everyone captured this information in advance through the light of the void. I wanted to take a closer look after arriving at Canopus.
But before I took a good look at this place, I discovered that there was a fleet in the distance!
Yes, a fleet, not just a simple spaceship. The most important thing is that this fleet is quite close to everyone, which is really a coincidence.
Feng Songjie and his Voyager experimental spacecraft had just jumped out of the space-time boundary when they encountered a fleet!
At this time, the speed of the Voyager spacecraft almost stopped because it had just jumped out of the grain boundary.
This is to prevent the spacecraft from disintegrating after jumping out of the grain boundary or colliding with the laws of the real world due to excessive speed. Therefore, when the spacecraft jumps out of the grain boundary, it must first stop the proton cannon attack, wait until time and space heals, and the spacecraft speed is almost stationary, and then resume
Gently pry the space and time and jump out.
In this way, the speed of the spacecraft is almost zero.
Next to it, the speed of the rapidly approaching fleet was initially estimated to be about 1,400 kilometers per second. The distance between the two sides is now about 8.6 million kilometers. Such a distance is really close in the starry sky.
On the one hand, Feng Songjie asked the spacecraft to immediately increase the load and accelerate, and on the other hand, he asked relevant personnel to prepare for war, while he continued to observe the opponent's fleet.
This fleet seems to have just appeared suddenly, but although the speed of 1,400 kilometers per second is not low, it is obviously not enough to travel through time and space. Therefore, the fleet should have been blocked by the planet just now.
This is the fleet of the Red River Civilization?!
The only thing we can encounter here is the fleet of the Red River Civilization!
Feng Songjie's heart suddenly became tense. According to the previous information sent by the 'Super Life Eternal', the time when the Red River Civilization discovered Tianyuan Star was estimated to be 20 years. Of course, these 20 years are only an estimated time, maybe earlier, maybe
Postponed.
However, in the past 23 years, there seems to be no sign of the emergence of the Red River Civilization. In addition, Dayang Group and Tianyuan Star have made great progress in technology and practice, so everyone can't help but feel a little relaxed.
But I didn't expect that at this time, I would find a fleet of other civilizations at the location of Canopus! There are a total of 12 spaceships, and the smallest spacecraft of the other party is one kilometer long. The largest spacecraft... I should say that the diameter of the spacecraft
It’s 6 kilometers in size!
Now, the opponent's fleet is turning a corner, and its direction is obviously towards our side!
"What to do!" Vice Captain Yu Jiang looked at Feng Songjie nervously, "The other party is currently traveling at a speed of 1,400 kilometers per second, and the preliminary calculation is that the acceleration is 270 meters per second; our current speed is almost zero, the acceleration is 500 meters per second, and the distance between us is 860 meters
Ten thousand kilometers... well, they can't catch up with us."
"It can't be calculated like this!" Feng Songjie looked very nervous, "Don't forget that there may also be light speed weapons, such as lasers. Or sub-light speed weapons, such as particle cannons.
No, their acceleration is also increasing!"
Everyone looked at Feng Songjie, waiting for Feng Songjie's order.
Feng Songjie took a deep breath, "Commander Murong Shan once said that in starry sky wars, when conditions are unfavorable, one should not pursue a quick victory. Scientific knowledge, starry sky environment, etc. should be rationally used. In particular, there should be enough time to observe.
other side.
To accelerate, we... sprint towards the star. Use the gravity of the star to get more acceleration. In addition, pay attention to using the planets along the way during the acceleration process.
Planets not only provide us with protection, they also provide a gravitational slingshot effect.
The gravitational slingshot effect can change the route and provide additional speed. The distortion of space and time near the planet is severe, making it difficult for the opponent to effectively aim.
In short, use all means to speed up and avoid the opponent's possible attacks.
Then we circle around the star, and after a full circle around the star, we chase the opponent from behind!
In addition, we should look for opportunities to launch the micro-detectors we carry. We should make these micro-detectors our eyes in space."
Although the Voyager spacecraft is an experimental spacecraft, it also has powerful combat capabilities. For example, the proton cannon has obvious shortcomings in long-range attacks, but at close range, it is a weapon that can crush even time and space boundaries!
What kind of problem is destroying spaceship defense?
However, at close range, you will be within the opponent's attack range and you will be in danger.
In addition, there are rail guns on the spaceship. And...mechas!
There really aren't many attack methods, but a rail gun is enough to blast everything. Back then, even planets could be shattered, so poking a hole in the outer wall of the Xuanhuang Civilization spaceship was as easy as poking through window paper.
But the most important thing at the moment is speed! Only speed can take the initiative. Speed is the most critical thing in starry battles. This is what we learned from previous military exercises.
The fleet of 12 spaceships behind is accelerating and has gradually adjusted its direction.
But Voyager is also accelerating and gradually falling towards the star.
Almost at the same time that Voyager made a move, the fleet behind it also adjusted its direction. They roughly calculated Voyager's trajectory and headed directly towards the star.
The Voyager is accelerating crazily, and at the same time the rail gun is also ready. According to the suggestion of Li Changxing, the military combat team leader on the spacecraft, the rail gun will be used to achieve acceleration.
The rail gun has a powerful recoil, which can be used to accelerate the spacecraft! By the way, the rail gun is also used to launch those micro detectors.
These micro-detectors are designed to be launched by rail guns. However, the speed cannot be too fast, otherwise the precision instruments may be destroyed by strong acceleration, electromagnetic environment that exceeds the limit, etc.
Therefore, the speed at which these detectors are launched is less than 300 kilometers per second.
At this time, Li Changxing does not recommend attacking the opponent directly. Before seizing the absolute advantage, it is better to keep a low profile. As for these launched detectors, they are themselves a kind of cover and a kind of tactical deception. That's it for our attack.
…………
In the vast starry sky, 12 large spaceships are chasing a small sampan. Facing a fleet of spaceships with a minimum size of more than one kilometer, the Voyager, which is only 300 meters long, is really just a sampan.
Especially the design of Voyager is very "old-fashioned": like a bloated rocket.
Among the 12 spaceships, the flagship 'Glorious' ship, Tuoba Xingye, son of the Prime Minister of the Red River Civilization, shouted excitedly: "The other party only has one spaceship, and it's so ugly. This must be a native who has just stepped into the starry sky!
Catch them!
Catch them and each will be rewarded with at least 1,000 Suzaku coins!"
When everyone heard this, their eyes immediately brightened!
The Suzaku coin is the 'large currency unit' commonly used in the Suzaku astrology area. It is an international currency! With this thing, you can have too many conveniences.
Everyone was very excited, but after more than an hour, everyone frowned slightly and left the ugly spaceship. The whole body was covered with engines and it was impossible to catch up!
Tuoba Xingye also frowned a little. He asked the military advisors, technical advisors, astronomical advisors, etc. around him.
Everyone said: Don't worry, young master, this kind of primitive spaceship doesn't have too much fuel, and their engines may not be able to run for a long time.
We just need to keep pursuing with peace of mind! It won't be long before they recognize the reality.
If that's the case, then feel free to pursue it. Also, the opponent's spaceship looks very primitive at first glance and has no artistic flavor at all.
High-tech has a very excellent characteristic: good technology itself is excellent art! Therefore, Ocean Group’s spaceship is not high-tech at first glance.
But after chasing and chasing for another two hours, the problem appeared and the distance between them began to widen! The acceleration performance of the Glorious spacecraft was actually not as good as the opponent's!
After chasing for another two hours, the distance between the two sides widened again to 8.6 million kilometers!
Tuoba Xingye was stunned: Something seemed wrong with the situation.
However, what is even more wrong is yet to come.
At this moment, another fleet appeared opposite the star of the Old Man Galaxy.
