After listening to what Zhou Dashi said, Su Zhe and others knew what was going on.
Fan Xiaoming looked at Zhou Dashi with a smile and asked, "Do you want to know now?"
"Think!" Zhou Dashi nodded quickly.
"Then let me tell you." Fan Xiaoming said with a smile on his face, "This Xuanwu plan is actually..."
Fan Xiaoming briefly introduced the Xuanwu Project and the SS-Defense System. He only gave a general introduction without mentioning any details.
After listening to this, Zhou Dashi said with a surprised look on his face: "This... this SS-defense system can intercept the impact of an asteroid?"
"Yes!" Fan Xiaoming nodded affirmatively, "But I haven't tried it yet. We will know if the SS-defense system can intercept asteroids."
"This asteroid is just enough to test the combined detection and interception capabilities of the SS-defense system." Su Zhe said, taking his laptop.
"Hey! I'm still worried. If the SS-defense system fails to intercept... an asteroid with a diameter of 110 meters! Its power..." Zhou Dashi said, and saw a message that asked him to appear on the screen of Su Zhe's laptop. Amazing picture.
The picture is divided into several parts.
The main screen shows an asteroid flying rapidly in the starry sky. Next to the main screen is a structural analysis diagram and various parameters of the asteroid.
He wasn't the only one paying attention to the laptop screen, it was everyone.
When he was puzzled, Fan Xiaoming turned around and said: "We are also afraid of failure to intercept, so we evacuate all personnel in Tamu Gobi just for fear of eventuality."
Zhou Dashi nodded, pointed at the laptop screen and asked: "This...is this asteroid?"
This asteroid is also potato-shaped and has a diameter of 110 meters.
Judging from the parameters, this asteroid is 250,000 kilometers away from the earth and is flying towards the earth quickly.
In his opinion, the asteroid displayed on the laptop screen was the one about to hit the Earth.
"Yes, this is the asteroid that is about to hit the earth." Fan Xiaoming answered affirmatively.
"Is this... what is displayed on the laptop a simulation? This picture looks like the real thing." Zhou Dashi said with a smile.
Su Zhe turned his head, smiled and said, "This is not a simulation, this is a real-time tracking screen of the SS-defense system."
"This... this is impossible!" Zhou Dashi looked unbelievable.
Zuo Dajun and the five assistants also looked surprised.
They know about the Xuanwu Plan and the SS-Defense System, but they don't know the specific parameters.
At first, they had the same idea as Zhou Dashi, thinking that the screen displayed on the laptop was simulated.
"How is it impossible?" Fan Xiaoming asked.
"This asteroid is 250,000 kilometers away from the earth. Our...ss-defense system can't really be that strong!" Zhou Dashi also realized it halfway through his words.
"Strong! Very strong!" Fan Xiaoming said with certainty.
At this moment, Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming's cell phones rang.
After checking, it was discovered that the two people received encrypted emails.
The two logged into the mailbox using their laptops.
Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming received the same emails.
The content of the email is the preliminary plan for the SS-defense system to intercept asteroids.
The preliminary interception plan mentioned that the asteroid should be intercepted after it crashes into the earth's middle atmosphere.
And the asteroid begins to intercept when it enters an altitude of one hundred kilometers.
The plan also mentioned that the threat of asteroids to the earth's surface should be eliminated within a space with an altitude of ten kilometers to one hundred kilometers.
After Fan Xiaoming finished reading, he asked Su Zhe with a smile, "What do you think of this preliminary plan?"
When the asteroid reached an altitude of 100 kilometers, its speed was as high as 30 kilometers per second.
According to the estimated trajectory, the collision with the ground would only take a little over three seconds, and would not exceed five seconds at most.
In the preliminary plan, when the asteroid flies to an altitude of 100 kilometers, the asteroid will receive the first wave of attacks from the SS-defense system.
According to a given strike power, the asteroid will disintegrate into debris of different sizes.
The next step is to intercept the wreckage.
According to requirements, all threatening debris must be dealt with at a minimum altitude of ten kilometers.
"Basically feasible!" Su Zhe nodded.
At this time, Su Zhe clicked on the ground deployment map of the SS-defense system.
It was found that the number of ss-defense system subsystem bases that have been online has reached one thousand.
With these SS-defense system subsystem bases, it is more than enough to deal with this asteroid.
As for the preliminary interception plan, he felt that the person who designed the plan had thought it through very carefully.
Now intercepting asteroids, or intercepting asteroids in high orbits, carries great risks.
Once the asteroid is dried to pieces, the debris of the asteroid will fly all over the space.
Such a result is a threat to satellites in space. After all, such a result is too uncertain.
Furthermore, the farther the distance, the more difficult it is for the SS-defense system to detect and intercept.
The reason why we choose an altitude of one hundred kilometers to ten kilometers has many advantages.
The asteroid is dried to pieces at an altitude of 100 kilometers, and only a small part of its debris re-enters space, and the vast majority of the debris lands at the Tamu Gobi.
In this way, even if the interception fails, the consequences are within a predictable range.
"I think so too." Fan Xiaoming said with a smile, "I thought that the SS-defense system would not shine until a long time later. I was looking forward to the two asteroids that were about to collide, but I didn't expect them to arrive so early."
"Who would have thought of this!" Su Zhe sighed.
"Then let's answer the email!" Fan Xiaoming said seriously.
Su Zhe smiled and nodded.
The two of them clicked on the keyboard to answer emails.
Several people watching around looked at each other.
soon! The two responded to the email.
Fan Xiaoming put away his laptop and said with emotion: "There is a good show to watch tonight!"
"After tonight, the world will no longer be the same as before." Su Zhe put his notebook into his computer bag.
Zhou Dashu and Zuo Dajun nodded seriously.
…
On the road, the business minibus was driving quickly.
At first, it was difficult to meet a car on the road.
Now, there are more and more cars on the road, and helicopters fly over from time to time.
At 5:30 in the afternoon, Su Zhe and his party passed two checkpoints and arrived at the Tamu Town station.
The first checkpoint was at the edge of the Tamu Desert. Su Zhe and his team made both written and electronic registrations.
The second level is to enter the Tamu Town station, where both written and electronic registrations are done.
The group of people transferred to a patrol car in the parking lot of the station.
First, they went to the temporary residence, put down their luggage, and then everyone went to the canteen.
On the way to the canteen, Zhou Dashi said: "People in Tamu Gobi and surrounding areas have been evacuated. Now there are only more than 30,000 people left in Tamu Town, and everyone else has been evacuated."
"Thirty thousand people!" Fan Xiaoming asked with a smile, "Why don't these people leave?"
"Well..." Zhou Dashi looked a little strange, "These people all know that there is an asteroid coming, and these people want to watch it nearby."
"These people are not afraid of death!" Su Zhe said jokingly.
"It's not that I'm not afraid of death, it's that I know that the impact of an asteroid will not spread so far." Fan Xiaoming said with a smile.
When we came to the cafeteria, we could hear people discussing the asteroid impact while queuing up and eating.
Obviously, these people only know that an asteroid with a diameter of 110 meters is going to hit the earth, but they don't know anything else.
Most of these people were discussing the asteroid's power to hit the Earth.
Some people were worried that the impact of the asteroid would affect the Tamu Town station, while some people talked carelessly about this being a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Su Zhe and his party had just come out of the cafeteria after dinner when they met Principal Xu Zhengping and more than 100 people.
After principal Xu Zhengping and more than 100 people had finished dinner, everyone went to the large classroom in the resident office building.
At this moment, there are more than 600 people sitting in the large classroom.
Most of these people are teachers and students of the school.
Half of them came to visit the development and construction of Tamu Gobi, and the remaining half were direct participants and managers of the development and construction of Tamu Gobi.
Principal Xu Zhengping stood on the podium and explained the cause and effect of the incident.
In fact, everyone knows what is going on.
Even if you didn’t know it at first, you know it now.
Starting at five o'clock in the afternoon, relevant media began to follow and report on this asteroid impact.
Discussions about asteroid impacts are also open on the Internet.
However, the relevant reports mentioned the size of the asteroid, when it hit, where it hit, and how powerful it was.
And there are authoritative media reporting on the relevant personnel of Tamu Gobi throughout the whole process.
To sum up, this asteroid impact is within a controllable range, and everything is prepared, so everyone can rest assured.
At the same time, many media are vigorously promoting how to protect yourself, how to deal with emergencies, etc.
With such an open and transparent report, everyone no longer had bad emotions, and many people even clamored to get closer to Tamu Gobi to watch.
People who have the conditions have prepared a full set of equipment in order to record this critical moment.
None of the reports mentioned the interception.
After the principal Xu Zhengping finished talking about the causes and consequences, he asked everyone to confirm the evacuation of the people following Tamu Gobi.
At this time, the live broadcast of authoritative media was playing on the big screen in the large classroom.
The background of the live broadcast is a clearly visible asteroid flying rapidly in the starry sky.
In the picture, a beautiful female host is asking two experts.
Half of the people in the large classroom were busy following the evacuation of people from Tamu Desert, and half of the people were watching the live broadcast quietly.
Time passed by, and it was half past nine in the evening.
All the information was put together and it was confirmed that all personnel had evacuated Tamu Gobi.
After it was confirmed, Xu Zhengping stood on the podium and said with a smile on his face: "Okay! Now that all personnel have evacuated, we are relieved... Everyone can move freely next. By the way, the asteroid impact will begin soon. , please be careful when watching, and don’t get together.”
After Xu Zhengping finished, everyone in the large classroom began to leave the large classroom in an orderly manner.
In the end, there were only a few people left in the large classroom who knew about the Xuanwu Project and the SS-Defense System.
These people surrounded Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming. Asking questions.
After receiving affirmative answers from Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming, everyone left happily, shouting to find the best position to watch the entire collision process.
Su Zhe, Fan Xiaoming, Zuo Dajun, and five assistants were led by Zhou Dashi to an excellent viewing place.
Tamu Town Station faces the outermost dry ditch on the Gobi side of Tamu.
Su Zhe and his party stood in a dry ditch that was one person deep.
Zhou Dashi said with a smile on his face: "If anything happens, we can have some protection by hiding in the ditch, right?"
In an instant, everyone laughed.
Of course, Zhou Dashi was not the only one who thought of this good place, many people thought of it.
Although this dry ditch is five kilometers long, there are still many people!
In the end, I decided to intervene and let everyone disperse to ensure that the density of people gathering would not be too high.
After the people dispersed, it was also convenient for Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming.
The two of them brought their own laptops and tracked the asteroid in real time through the SS-defense system.
Instead of watching the live broadcast like everyone else.
At this moment, the surroundings were pitch black, and the bright moon and stars in the sky were unusually conspicuous.
Fan Xiaoming looked up at the sky and said with a smile: "The universe is so big, but poor humans are still here on Earth. To put it bluntly, if there is a super disaster, humans will probably be wiped out."
"Go out of the earth and develop the solar system." Zong Lanyue shouted.
"Build the Penglai space city and explore Proxima Centauri." Liu Fen continued to shout.
"..."
While Su Zhe was listening to these people yelling, his cell phone rang.
The caller was Ning Qiaoqiao.
Ask him if he is in a safe place and if he has left Tamu Gobi.
Later, the two discussed the SS-defense system's plan to intercept asteroids.
After finishing the call with Ning Qiaoqiao, I heard Fan Xiaoming and others talking happily together.
After listening for a while, I realized that most of the world is now paying attention to this asteroid impact event.
Nowadays, the Internet at home and abroad is extremely lively.
"Such a high degree of attention." Fan Xiaoming smiled, "I guess many people will not be able to sleep after this asteroid impact event is over."
"Whether we can sleep or not has nothing to do with us." Su Zhe said nonchalantly, "To be honest, there is no need to involute on the earth if you can."
"Indeed!" Fan Xiaoming nodded with a smile, "Our Jiutian Research Center's goal from the beginning was to have endless energy and endless resources outside the earth..."
…
Time passed by, and it came to eleven o'clock at night.
The vast majority of people around the world do so online or through professional equipment.
Su Zhe and his party stopped discussing it.
Everyone is either looking at the asteroid approaching the earth quickly on the laptop screen, or looking up at the boundless night sky.
At this moment, time seems to have slowed down.
Five minutes passed, and the time came to eleven and a half.
Suddenly, Fan Xiaoming said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous, everyone. We have a SS-defense system. Nothing will happen. Please relax, just treat it like watching a fireworks show."
"Yes! Yes! We are watching a fireworks show!" Zhou Dashi said extremely nervously.
