Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

Chapter 9 How many steps are there to land on the meteorite?

In the silent and boundless space, the moon is quietly revolving around the blue star.

And not far from the moon's orbit, a meteorite with a long bright and sparse comet tail is running towards the blue star. If there are no other factors, this meteorite will hit the blue star in a few days. , causing the same mass extinction of the Blue Star species as it did 65 million years ago.

It's just that humans now rule the Blue Star, not the dinosaurs 65 million years ago. The wisdom and technology we have can give us the possibility to fight and survive in the face of such a huge meteorite.

At this time in the lunar orbit, three aircraft that have completed the acceleration are flying towards the meteorite with the most powerful weapons and hope of mankind, hoping to destroy the meteorite and prevent the disaster and catastrophe from coming.

"Houston, this is Endeavour. We are close to the meteorite and request approval to start the rescue plan." On the Space Shuttle Endeavour, the captain was talking to Blue Star.

The expressions of the seven astronauts in the cabin were very nervous at this time, and at the same time, they also carried a little excitement and an incomparable sense of mission.

Because they carry the hope of all mankind, if the action is successful, they will also be heroes to save the world.

Perhaps Hollywood has made too many movies to save Blue Star. These astronauts have a bit of federal heroism more or less, and feel that they are the protagonists and will definitely be able to save the world.

This confidence gave these seven astronauts a lot of confidence. Together with the other seven astronauts of the other Atlantis, these astronauts from the Federation maintained a positive and optimistic mood. Think that you can successfully complete the task.

Optimism is not a bad thing, after all, if they fail, it will be a devastating apocalypse for the Blue Star, and the burden they bear is the life and death of the trillions of creatures and species on the Blue Star.

In fact, the astronauts of the Federal, Yan Guo and Lucia teams who were responsible for this mission had specialized psychologists to guide them psychologically after learning about the mission, so that they would be in a positive and optimistic state. state.

Because the responsibilities they bear are too heavy, the life and death of all human beings and the fate of the entire Blue Star are imposed on them.

Although the astronauts themselves are people with good psychological qualities who have been carefully selected through layers of screening, and the most experienced astronauts with the best qualities were selected for this mission, this kind of astronaut is related to the safety of the world. No one dares to bet that these astronauts can really withstand such a lot of psychological pressure.

In case any astronaut on the space shuttle can't bear the pressure and breaks down emotionally, it is likely to destroy the only chance for human beings to save themselves this time.

Therefore, the United Nations action team deliberately kept these astronauts in a more optimistic attitude, which not only made them more stable, but also allowed them to have a better state when performing tasks, which can improve the success rate of the mission.

At a time when the fate of six billion human beings in the world is pinned on this mission, any method that may improve the success rate of the mission will be tried by the action team, as long as it is really effective.

It's just that although the United Nations action team has mobilized all the resources in the world, and is doing everything possible to escort and provide support for this rescue plan, hoping to improve the success rate of the mission as much as possible, in fact, everyone knows this time. The mission is nothing but a gamble, a near-tiny chance against the fate of all mankind.

But even though it is a gamble, human beings still have the hope of winning, that is, the astronauts of the three countries can successfully complete their tasks and eliminate the threat of this meteorite impact.

Therefore, under the attention of 6 billion people around the world, the two space shuttles Endeavour and Atlantis, which were replied by NASA, flew towards the meteorite, while the spacecraft driven by the astronauts of the Yan Kingdom stayed behind. In the back, they need to wait for the Federals to complete their mission before they can start their mission.

On the Blue Star at this time, Chen Xin was swiping his mobile phone, discussing the topic of this rescue mission with the group friends in the survival group, while watching the live broadcast of the Federation of Yan Guo spacecraft on TV. The picture of the two space shuttles flying towards the meteorite really made them sweat nervously.

Landing on the surface of the meteorite is not so simple. Even if the Federals use the space shuttle, which has the ability to take off and land like an ordinary aircraft, it is very difficult to land on the surface of the meteorite.

First of all, the space shuttle is not directly rushing towards the meteorite. In that case, even if the space shuttle will make landing difficult because the relative speed between the two is too large, it may even crash directly on the meteorite.

Therefore, the two space shuttles must maintain the same advancing direction as the meteorite, and maintain a relatively stable state with the meteorite at a sufficient speed, so that they can land on the surface of the meteorite.

Because the orbital intersections were calculated in advance, Endeavour and Atlantis approached the meteorite in a synchronized flight after being accelerated by the moon's gravity, and then landed on a relatively flat surface of the meteorite.

But meteorites have now formed comet tails as they approach the sun.

This is the trajectory formed in space by the material on the surface of the meteorite under the influence of the solar wind. If you look at it on a blue star, it will be a very beautiful light band.

But if you want to pass through it, for the space shuttle and astronauts, it is equivalent to driving in a sandstorm or hailstorm. Life and death depend on luck.

With luck, it might just be a sandstorm with a bit more wind, and the landing will be difficult but not fatal.

But if you are unlucky, it will be hail, and you can still smash the window glass and hit the roof of the car with a large hailstone that is full of potholes, enough to kill the space shuttle.

At this moment, the astronauts on the two space shuttles Endeavour and Atlantis are really gambling with their lives, betting on a chance to land on the surface of the meteorite.

"Houston! We have encountered difficulties. There are debris flows around the meteorite. They are blocking our way. We need help!"

Because it is a synchronous live broadcast to 6 billion people around the world, there is no such thing as pinching this into an advertisement or cutting the camera back to the studio. This cry for help from the federal astronauts can be said to instantly cause the whole world to be in a commotion.

In the small group established by Chen Xin and his friends, many people have begun to wailing that this rescue operation is going to fail, feeling that they have to live in a shelter for the rest of their lives.
