The start of science and technology
Chapter 87
With the passage of time, the brightness of the death star in the space telescope has gradually increased. Observatories in various countries have confirmed that the asteroid really exists!
Moreover, according to the observation data released by Du Xingyu before, its diameter, orbit and flight speed are all correct. At this moment, no one questioned Du Xingyu.
But then they feel endless panic and despair!
Some people may think about what they should do if the world is about to die... But when this day really comes, everyone is at a loss!
Completely liberate yourself? It''s not that day yet, there are twenty years left! Now go out and release your nature. Nine times out of ten, you''ll be locked up.
"Is there any hope for mankind?" the 70 year old director of the Island National Observatory collapsed to the ground and looked up at the starry sky. The bright star river seemed to be a cannibal devil laughing at him.
A group of researchers were stunned at the Korean astronomical research institute.
"In the face of such a disaster, we have no way. We can only ask for international assistance!" they clearly know that there is no way to deal with the space disaster, that is, we can''t escape!
At the Indian Observatory, astronomers reported the news: "the death star really exists, Shiva is going to destroy the world!"
……
Senior leaders of various countries are studying this matter with think tanks, and emergency teams have been established.
However, no matter how smart people are, how powerful the team is, and how powerful the country is, they all feel a sense of powerless frustration at the moment.
In the emergency office of the United States, a think-tank is giving advice. A group said: "we can make tens of thousands of super hydrogen bombs and blow up asteroids directly!"
Immediately someone objected: "we have not satisfied with such a powerful super hydrogen bomb. In addition, it is beyond our ability to send so many super hydrogen bombs to detonate far away from earth. Even if such a large asteroid is blown up, it will become a giant meteorite rain and hit the earth."
"Even if a meteorite with a mass of 10 tons hits the earth, the explosion energy will be equivalent to the explosion of 10000 million ton TNT bombs. Believe me, you won''t want to see meteorite rain on the earth."
Another group suggested: "we can build a large spacecraft, look for an asteroid in advance, bombard it with nuclear bombs, change its orbit and reduce its volume!"
"We have no spacecraft to support long-distance space flight, nor equipment and energy equipment that can continuously launch space bombing! This scheme is temporarily preserved and can be further discussed."
"We can build a solar laser array to vaporize all the ice on the asteroid and reduce its volume," said a team.
"This has a certain possibility, but according to our observation, the death star should be a rocky asteroid with only a small amount of ice. The effect of this scheme is too weak!" an astronomer objected, "and we should at least build a laser array tens of kilometers long in space and use the laser for several years!"
One plan after another has been rejected. How can we stop the death star? No one knows the answer!
"Ask Huaxia! Find Du Xingyu!" many people thought of Du Xingyu. All countries sent people to call Huaxia Academy of Sciences and NASA to ask for solutions.
At the same time, internationally, astronomers from Europe, Russia and the United States have stood up and announced to the world: "Du Xingyu''s prediction is correct. We did observe the death star. This asteroid with a diameter of about 30 kilometers is flying towards the interior of the solar system at a speed of 25000 kilometers per hour. It will intersect with the earth''s orbit in 20 years, and 90% of it can hit the earth!"
These words make the world boil again. All civilized countries are ignited by this news.
"The language of Chinese scientists has been confirmed!"
"Asteroids will hit the earth in twenty years!"
"The countdown to the end of mankind, twenty years!"
Whether day or night, every country is conveying such a message, and some disturbing factors are beginning to appear.
Fortunately, all countries have been prepared to control the situation as much as possible.
The situation abroad is even more complicated. Some preachers preach that believing in gods can lead to eternal life; some take to the streets to protest against God or against asteroids. Anyway, the parade will be over.
Stock markets in various countries plunged wildly. People rushed into supermarkets to buy all water, food and toilet paper. There were also some public security incidents, but they soon subsided.
A large number of people in European and American countries directly claimed that this was false news, and they refused to believe it. Some of them began to hold "doomsday" themed parties and revel!
At home, people should be much calmer.
At this time, the Chinese Academy of Sciences held a press conference to announce the matter and their solutions to the world.
Du Xingyu was one of the first speakers. Before him, the National Academy of Sciences had just announced the observation of the death star.
"Can we deal with the disaster of asteroid impact on the earth?" the reporter asked.
"Objectively speaking, we can''t deal with it alone, but we will unite all countries to deal with it," said an old academician of the Academy of Sciences.
"Will that asteroid destroy the earth?" the reporter asked again.
It''s already 12:00 p.m., but more than 100 million people have paid attention to the news release!
"To be accurate, asteroids can''t destroy the earth. They can only destroy the earth''s surface, that is, the environment where human civilization is located." the old academician said, "but don''t worry too much. We have set up an emergency team and mobilized all forces to deal with this matter. We still have 20 years to prepare!"
"Next, please tell us about our plan."
It was Du Xingyu''s turn to speak. Hundreds of shots were aimed at him. Du Xingyu''s appearance appeared in front of the audience again.
"Finally I saw academician Du again!" on the Internet, the audience felt more at ease when they saw Du Xingyu.
"There must be a way! I''m only 15 years old. I don''t want to die at 35!"
"I''ve been worried for days!"
"Please!"
"Academician Du, the hope of all mankind!"
"I haven''t been in the mood to work these days. I wonder if we can be saved? If not, I will resign and go out to wander!"
In front of the camera, Du Xingyu began to speak. He said slowly, "in the face of the disaster of the Death Star hitting the earth, we have worked out a plan to resist the disaster. Now we report to the people of the whole country, the world and mankind!"
"This plan will be mainly divided into five parts."
"The first part is to build one or more space elevators with a height of about 36000 kilometers on the earth''s equator to realize the transportation of materials and personnel between the earth and outer space."
"What? 36000 km long elevator to send people and materials into space?" the whole network was shocked to hear Du Xingyu''s first part!
"Isn''t that crazy?"
"Can such a long elevator really work?"
"I don''t know why. It''s a terrible thing. I feel a little excited?"
"That''s crazy!"
"Is this for us to escape to outer space?"
