Chapter 631 An Unprecedented Scene
Every subsequent process went very smoothly because once the rocket was launched, the probability of problems occurring was much smaller.
Launching a rocket on the moon is the most difficult step. As for the other subsequent processes, we have already conducted many experiments and practices to ensure the success rate of these steps.
While paying attention to the rocket and spacecraft, Xu You was also paying attention to the movement of the asteroid that was gradually approaching the moon.
In fact, this spacecraft is not controlled by humans, but through a preset artificial intelligence system, it detects the movement of the asteroid in real time and automatically controls the spacecraft.
Because when a spacecraft flies a long distance, even if it relies on the propagation of electromagnetic waves, the time required for the round trip is not negligible, which is unacceptable for the high-precision control required for the spacecraft.
Unless there is a serious deviation, Xu You does not need to give other commands to the spacecraft. All subsequent operations will be carried out by artificial intelligence.
At this time, Xu You was also paying attention to the movements of the asteroid.
"Based on the current flight status of the asteroid, if we really don't take any action, the final landing point of the asteroid will be near the black hole on the back of the moon," said Xu Youxin.
At this time, Xu You was still unable to draw a conclusion as to whether this situation was just a coincidence or something that had been planned long ago.
If this was just a coincidence, Xu You always felt that it was too much of a coincidence.
Xu You knew that such coincidences were very rare in the world, and most of the time they were due to survivor bias.
As for another possibility...
If this matter was really planned long ago.
The intelligent life that caused this incident must have a much higher level of civilization than that of Blue Planet.
Xu You had no idea of the purpose of their doing this.
In addition, if this asteroid really falls into the black hole on the back of the moon, what consequences will it cause?
Have they discovered that there is intelligent life on the blue planet?
Xu You couldn't give a definite answer to all of this at this time.
"This is SAM Space Agency. Our rocket is ready to launch. Once the spacecraft enters the planned orbit, we will follow your command and strike the asteroid."
"This is the Soviet Space Agency, and our rocket is ready ."
The space systems of many countries including Sam, the Soviet Union, France, Germany, Great Britain, etc. are ready and are about to launch rockets.
Each of their spacecraft cannot have a decisive impact on the movement of asteroids, but when all the spacecraft are added together, there will be an effect of quantitative change leading to qualitative change.
"Okay, the space systems of various countries can launch rockets in sequence according to the original plan. When the spacecraft enters orbit , we will issue control commands. Please ask the space systems of various countries to be ready at any time."
At this time, our aerospace system has become the core of the world, playing a key role in command and control.
The next period of time will be the most intensive period of rocket launches in the history of world space.
"Academician Xu, it is estimated that the spacecraft launched from the moon will collide with the asteroid in six hours and thirty-eight minutes. Our nuclear devices as well as those of Sam, the Soviet Union, Great Britain, and France are all ready to deal with any situation that may occur next."
Such preparations are also intended to prevent the first spacecraft from failing to perform its planned mission and causing the asteroid to deviate from the desired direction.
No matter what, the final bottom line that humans can accept is that this asteroid must not eventually fall on the blue planet.
Even if all the nuclear devices on the blue planet are used, the asteroid must be detonated in space.
In the next few hours, dozens of rockets from multiple aerospace systems around the world completed their launches one after another.
Such a high density of rocket launches really gave space enthusiasts around the world a great time, even though it was not an exciting moment.
If we want to witness this kind of scene again, we will probably have to wait until space travel becomes truly popular.
Just at this moment.
Cui Ying suddenly approached from a distance and whispered something in Xu You's ear.
"Teacher Xu, Nameless said that he has successfully hacked into all space systems except Sam. Should we continue as planned?"
Xu You was in the control center of the Academy of Aerospace at the time and it was not convenient for him to contact other people, so this matter was handed over to Cui Ying.
Over the years, Cui Ying has become one of Xu You's most trusted people. Even for such top-secret matters, Xu You would safely hand them over to Cui Ying.
"Well, everything is going according to plan. Be careful not to let other countries' space systems discover any anomalies. If they do, it means their spacecraft has been hacked by other systems, which is not an easy thing to explain."
Although the ultimate goal of controlling other countries' spacecraft is for the benefit of all mankind, it is indeed impolite to do so without permission.
Xu You still hopes that these things can be carried out in secret.
"Okay, Mr. Xu, I'll reply to Nameless right away."
According to Xu You and Nameless' plan, except for Sam, the spacecraft of other countries will be implanted with a special spacecraft operating system by Nameless to automatically control the subsequent operation of the spacecraft. This is also to better knock the asteroid out of its original orbit.
At the same time, the implanted operating system will not immediately take over the control of the spacecraft, but will lurk secretly and control the spacecraft only when necessary.
Moreover, no abnormalities were found in the signals received from the spacecraft.
With Nameless' technology, only our space system and Sam's can resist such a powerful invasion and will not lose control of our own space system.
Of course, Xu You is still very confident in Sam's technology and does not worry about any problems encountered during Sam's space agency's mission to impact the asteroid .
Before I knew it, more than six hours had passed.
This spacecraft launched from the moon has come very close to the asteroid.
At this moment, people all over the world are focusing their attention on this spacecraft.
Because the collision between them will determine whether it is necessary to use nuclear devices later.
"There are still ten seconds until the impact. Nine seconds..."
