In a small conference room at the Satellite Launch Center, more than a dozen people including Su Zhe, Bao Zhengyi, and Ning Changsheng looked at the large screen in the conference room.
These people are all core personnel of the Xuanwu Project, either as technical advisers or as executors of the Xuanwu Project.
Everyone watched the deployment of the Xuanwu Project played on the big screen and listened to the explanation by Zhang Gaoming, director of the Lingzhou Optoelectronics Research Institute.
"After more than three months of assault, the infrastructure construction of the three thousand SS-defense system subsystems deployed on the ground in the Xuanwu Plan has been completed. So far, 500 subsystems have been completed."
"The four-dimensional optical positioning technology system in the completed subsystem has been put into use... Let's put it this way! The four-dimensional optical positioning technology system is very, very good, and it fully meets the design expectations..."
"Everyone look carefully at the big screen. The following pictures are all practical applications of the four-dimensional optical positioning technology system."
A flying small four-wing drone appeared on the main screen of the big screen, and the camera mounted under the drone could be clearly seen.
Displayed on both sides of the main screen are various parameters of the small four-wing drone, such as the structure of the small four-wing drone, the spatial position information of the drone, the flight trajectory of the drone, etc.
Judging from these data, this is a small civilian drone, flying at an altitude of three hundred meters, with longitude and latitude...
Its flight speed is eight meters per second.
Then, the main screen changed from a drone to a passenger plane, and the icon on the passenger plane could be clearly seen through the screen.
The parameters on both sides of the main screen show that the flight altitude of this passenger plane is 11 kilometers, the speed is 1,000 kilometers per hour, and its flight trajectory...
After everyone learned the relevant information about the passenger plane, a satellite appeared on the main screen, a satellite that everyone was familiar with.
This satellite is spherical and has several needle antennas, and its code name is dfh-1.
From the parameters on both sides of the main screen, we know that the satellite is flying in an orbit of 1,500 kilometers above the ground, and its speed is 7.3 kilometers per second.
Zhang Gaoming looked at everyone with a smile and said: "Everyone has seen that the detection ability of the SS-defense system is still very strong. For now, at ultra-low altitude or to find cover, or if it is not more than 10,000 kilometers above the ground, only Only in this way can we escape the detection of the SS-defense system."
Instantly, there was applause in the conference room.
After a while, when the applause stopped, Zhang Gaoming continued: "But this is now. Once we deploy detectors in space, it will be really difficult to escape."
The crowd applauded again.
At this time, the main screen switches again.
Although the main screen display is not clear enough, everyone can still distinguish it.
The main screen shows a space solar power station in a synchronous orbit in outer space led by Academician Zhao Guoan of Northwest University of Electronic Science and Technology.
In the picture, the overall outline of the space solar power station is clearly visible, but many details are unclear.
It's not as clear as the previous three sets of pictures.
But the parameters of the space solar power station are still displayed on both sides of the main screen.
Its spatial position, speed, altitude, orbit, etc.
"As we all know, the effective detection height of the ground part of the SS-defense system is 10,000 kilometers. This effective detection means that it can detect almost all parameters of the target..." Zhang Gaoming explained.
Everyone knows the parameters of the SS-defense system subsystem deployed on the ground, and they also know the meaning of effective detection.
Just like the space solar power station of the Chasing Light Project is in a synchronous orbit of more than 30,000 kilometers, compared with the effective detection distance of the ground part of the SS-defense system, it can only achieve what is displayed on the big screen.
"The purpose of launching thirty-six detectors tomorrow is to broaden the detection range of the SS-Defense System. Once these thirty-six detectors are deployed in space, the detection range of the SS-Defense System will be expanded to 300,000 Kilometers." Zhang Gaoming said with a smile on his face.
Seeing Zhang Gaoming laughed, everyone in the conference room also laughed.
Everyone started talking.
Some people say that these thirty-six detectors were built too hastily, and their half-year lifespan is too short. Some people say that they are prepared for the two small satellites that are about to collide, etc.
No one said that the SS-defense system is not strong enough.
"By the way! Let me say something here. Tomorrow we will watch the whole process of One Arrow and Thirty-Six Stars through the SS-defense system. I believe it will give everyone a different experience." Zhang Gaoming reminded with a smile.
Everyone clapped with anticipation.
"Okay! Everyone has intuitively understood the detection capabilities of the SS-Defense System. Next, we need to understand the interception capabilities of the SS-Defense System." Zhang Gaoming said excitedly.
Everyone became excited. Some people said they wanted to see the death ray destroy satellites, and others said they wanted to see the death ray bombard an asteroid.
Zhang Gaoming smiled helplessly and said, "Don't joke with me. Everyone knows the entire process of the Xuanwu Project. It is possible to test the SS-defense system's detection capabilities, but the death ray test is conducted in secret. of."
Hearing what Zhang Gaoming said, many people in the conference room smiled sheepishly.
"Next, I will show you the videos of the four levels of death ray tests. The first video shows the test video of the first level of death ray..." Zhang Gaoming explained.
The video starts playing on the main screen.
It is easy to judge from the environment of the video that the test place is underground.
In the gray screen, it is easy to see a thick pipe, and the rock target area dozens of meters away can be seen.
Everyone knows that this thick tube is the barrel of the death ray.
Suddenly, the top of the dead light emission tube lit up with a faint red light, and then the red light flashed.
Then a groove appeared on the rock target area dozens of meters away.
After waiting for a while, the top of the dead light emission tube lit up with a dull red light again, and then an extremely imperceptible red light flashed through, and a tiny hole appeared in the groove of the rock target area.
When the main screen is playing, various parameters of the first-level dead light test are displayed on both sides.
Everyone watched the video and listened to Zhang Gaoming's explanation.
"Everyone can guess from watching the video that the test location is two hundred meters underground. I won't say the specific location."
"The one tested in the video is a first-level death ray. The length of the barrel is one meter and the diameter is thirteen centimeters."
"..."
"Okay! The first test is completed. The diameter of the beam is ten centimeters, the duration of the beam is 0.01 seconds, and the depth of the rock depression is one centimeter."
"The second test has also been completed. The diameter of the beam is one millimeter, the duration of the beam is also 0.01 seconds, and the depth of the rock depression is ten meters."
"What I want to explain is that the diameter of the first-level death light beam can be selected, and its output power and duration are also selectable."
"Of course, different levels of death rays have different upper limits on their output power."
"..."
On the big screen, after the first-level death-ray test video ended, the second-level death-ray test video began to play, followed by the third-level death-ray test video and the special-level death-ray test video.
The barrel length of the second-level death ray is three meters and the diameter is 55 centimeters. The barrel length of the third-level death ray is seven meters and the diameter is 110 centimeters. The barrel length of the super-level death ray is 90 meters and the diameter is 90 meters. It's thirty-three meters.
In contrast, in the Xuanwu plan, the special death rays are deployed the least. There is no way, given their size and power, it is already very good to be able to deploy three groups.
According to Zhang Gaoming, these three sets of special death rays are prepared for dealing with huge asteroids. As for those aircraft and the like, the first, second and third level death rays are completely sufficient.
Level one has the most in terms of number of deployments.
The larger the caliber, the greater the power, the less flexible it is, and the smaller the number of its deployments.
After watching the test video of the four levels of death rays, everyone in the conference room was extremely excited.
Everyone knows that once the Xuanwu Plan is completed, there will be no need to worry about any threats and they will be able to develop step by step.
"Okay! After watching the test video, everyone must have confidence in the Xuanwu Project and have a preliminary understanding of the detection and interception capabilities of the SS-defense system." Zhang Gaoming was very excited.
As the leader of the Xuanwu Project, the Lingzhou Institute of Optoelectronics knows very well how much manpower and material resources have been invested in the past few months to achieve the current results.
At the same time, he also felt the efficiency and miracles brought about regardless of the cost.
At this moment, he still couldn't forget the huge barrel of the special death ray.
Ninety meters long and thirty-three meters long, it looks like an extended version of a gasoline barrel from a distance.
The super-level death ray is strong, but its flexibility is incomparable to the first, second, and third-level death rays.
At the same time, the amazing power, full power transmission, lasts for one minute, and consumes as much electricity as a city with a population of one million for a day.
On the contrary, he prefers the first, second and third level death rays.
Of course, he didn't want to use the special death ray in reality, because he knew that once the special death ray was used, it would mean that mankind would encounter a devastating disaster.
Just as he was thinking about it, everyone in the conference room started discussing.
These people discussed that they wanted to see the true strength of the SS-Defense System and the effect of combining detection and interception of the SS-Defense System.
Although everyone had just seen the detection effect of the SS-defense system and the test effects of four levels of death rays, they did not see the effect of the combination of the two.
The more people discuss it, the less satisfying it becomes.
Zhang Gaoming looked at everyone and reminded: "Don't think about the combined test of the two, let's put it this way! It's not necessary, we will not use the death ray to intercept, don't say you don't know why!"
After thinking about it, everyone became discouraged.
They know that a combined test of the two is unlikely because there are too many factors to consider.
Su Zhe felt itchy in his heart as he listened to everyone's discussion.
To be honest, he has a clear understanding of the Xuanwu plan and a very good understanding of the detection and interception capabilities of the SS-defense system.
But when he watched the previous video, he was still excited and excited.
Although he knew that he could imagine the interception by the SS-defense system in his mind, no matter how he imagined it, those were not real and could not compare to what happened in reality.
Take the special death ray as an example.
He was fully involved in the design of the special death ray, and he knew all the parameters of the special death ray. However, when watching the video, he was still shocked by the size of the special death ray.
He believed that he would be even more shocked when he saw the real thing of special death ray tomorrow.
Therefore, he also wanted to see the effect of the combination of SS-defense system detection and interception.
Unconsciously, he thought of a scene in his mind.
A huge asteroid flew towards the earth quickly, and three groups of super death rays simultaneously emitted red beams...
Just as he was thinking about it, Bao Zhengyi, who was sitting next to him, said, "Su Zhe! Do you think those two asteroids that are sure to collide will bring disaster to us humans?"
Su Zhe saw everyone in the conference room looking at him, and he was a little confused.
After listening to the reminders from Professor Ning Changsheng and Bao Zhengyi, he realized that while he was thinking about himself, everyone in the conference room talked about two asteroids that were about to collide.
Everyone expressed their opinions.
Some people think that the collision of these two asteroids will not affect humans on earth.
Some people say they hope that debris that threatens humanity will fly to the earth, so that the SS-defense system will come into play.
As they talked, everyone looked at Su Zhe, wanting Su Zhe to explain.
Seeing that Su Zhe was a little confused, Zhang Gaoming said: "Relevant institutions at home and abroad now agree that the two asteroids will collide. The results of the analysis by the relevant domestic institutions are that after the two asteroids collide, it is possible that the debris will fly to the earth. sex……"
Regarding the collision of two asteroids three million kilometers away from the earth, relevant agencies at home and abroad have reached a consensus, and they all believe that the two asteroids will collide.
However, domestic and foreign views on the consequences of the collision of two asteroids are completely different.
Relevant domestic agencies are very cautious and believe that before the two asteroids collide, it cannot be determined whether the debris after the collision will bring disaster to mankind.
Don't be blindly optimistic and prepare for the worst.
Relevant foreign institutions are very optimistic. Based on their semi-public information, they have simulated the collision process of two asteroids and believe that the possibility of the collision debris causing disaster to mankind is very small.
However, relevant foreign institutions are still very pragmatic and are still preparing for the worst.
Since the discovery that the two asteroids were about to collide, relevant foreign agencies have made four attempts to intervene, but unfortunately all four times have failed.
He disagreed with the simulation results of the collision process of two asteroids conducted by relevant foreign institutions.
Even if we know the orbital parameters, shape, mass, mass distribution, etc. of the two asteroids, it is difficult to know the internal structure of the two asteroids.
In this way, how to trust the simulation results of the collision process of two asteroids.
According to simulations by relevant domestic institutions, even if the debris from the collision of these two asteroids has little impact on the earth, it is very likely that these debris will hit other asteroids, causing the orbits of these asteroids to change.
This is a chain reaction. No one can guarantee that these orbit-changing asteroids will not hit the earth.
After Zhang Gaoming finished the introduction, he looked at Su Zhe with a smile.
Everyone in the conference room also looked at Su Zhe with smiles. They wanted to know the answer from Su Zhe's mouth.
In other words, they wanted Su Zhe to confirm their statement.
