Ruler seat α61.
This is a very faint star system on the star map. Among the many star systems, it belongs to the part that is closer to the center of the galaxy.
This star system is the ancient battlefield of the Milky Way in the secret files of Alnis Star.
Judging from the description in the archives, this so-called "ancient battlefield" naturally does not refer to the battle between the Palesian civilization and the Carbon-based Alliance 20,000 years ago.
Therefore, the date should be older than the galactic war of 20,000 years ago.
During the time close to α61, everyone in the fleet was nervous and curious.
Judging from the few photos in the secret archives, α61 Norgis is a relatively dark star system, and the stars have been destroyed once.
Therefore, the star system is full of cosmic dust, just like the asteroid belt in the solar system, full of meteorites and asteroids.
It's just that the cosmic dust in α61 Norma is much more than that in the solar system, and the total mass of the cosmic dust is billions of times that of the solar system, to an incalculable level.
The destroyed stars, the mass involved, finally slowly gathered together to form a red dwarf with a small mass.
The light of the red dwarf is relatively dim among the stars, coupled with the endless cosmic dust permeating the star system, it is almost impossible to see the light of the red dwarf in the star system.
After gradually approaching α61 Argonis, Shenzhou relied on radio telescopes and other equipment to observe the red dwarfs of α61 Argonis one after another.
"What's the result of the observation?"
After the astronomical observation team led by Lang Xiaonian told everyone the news of the observation of the star α61 Norma, everyone gathered to inquire about the result.
"It is indeed an M-type star with a relatively small mass, only about 0.2 times that of the sun." Lang Xiaonian replied.
"That's not too small, is it?"
Humans were born in the solar system, and the mass of the sun accounts for more than 98% of the total mass of the solar system, so the mass of the sun is very huge for humans.
But the sun is among the stars,
But it's of the lower quality.
"Very small, the mass of the sun belongs to a star with a relatively small mass. The mass of this α61 Argonis is even smaller. It has formed a red dwarf star, but according to the information in the secret file, the α61 Argonis once The total mass is not that small..."
Lang Xiaonian began to talk about his own analysis: "So, I think the star of α61 Norgis was once an A-type star, and its mass should be 2 to 3 times that of the sun.
"As for why a large amount of mass was lost later, it has not yet been determined.
"I can't wait to get into α61 Norma and see what's going on in this star system."
Not only Lang Xiaonian was curious, but in fact everyone in the fleet was curious.
To become a human space soldier, who hasn't dreamed of stars and seas?
Moreover, in the selection system of the Space Force, astronomy and cosmic sociology are compulsory.
"Because there is a lot of cosmic dust in Alpha 61, after entering Alpha 61, the speed of navigation should be slowed down, and the vibration should not be less. It is best for the flagship to turn on the energy shield to navigate." Lang Xiaonian reminded .
The Shenzhou was in charge of navigating, but the energy shield was not activated immediately.
Instead, continue to maintain the curvature flight, but reduce the engine power a little.
The meaning of not turning on the energy shield is naturally to bump into it, which can save a lot of time.
However, it has to withstand the shock of the impact accordingly.
In this regard, Eve, as the chief pilot and deputy captain of the fleet, drove the Shenzhou all the way without any pressure.
Dare to hit even an antimatter interceptor bomb, hit a few meteorites, it's really not a big deal.
Occasionally, when encountering a meteorite in front, I would not even hide, because if I dodge, the battleship behind will hit me.
Therefore, Ye Zheyu was in charge of locking on to these meteorites and began to bombard them.
"You call this cosmic dust?"
Niu Dazhi lay on the dome of the bridge simulated on the screen, looked at a meteorite thicker than the Shenzhou floating by, and complained.
"You know a little bit, this is cosmic dust, otherwise do you think cosmic dust should be like dust?" Eve still turned her head to scold him while piloting the battleship.
For the universe, a meteorite with a diameter of several hundred meters is really just "dust".
Moreover, there is a lot of cosmic dust in α61 Angularis, as if the entire star system is filled with countless asteroid belts.
It even blocks the light of the red dwarf star α61 Anguli, but after entering α61 Anguli, the distance between those cosmic dusts is actually very far away.
Therefore, they will not collide all the way, but will occasionally encounter meteorites in front of them, which may hit the fleet. At this time, they will choose to bombard and destroy them.
As the fleet gets closer and closer to the core area of α61, the density of the cosmic dust is gradually increasing.
Moreover, these cosmic dusts are obviously divided into circles and layers.
Therefore, what is presented to everyone is that every once in a while, they will enter an asteroid belt.
"Why do these meteorites appear sometimes and not?" Niu Dazhi asked curiously.
"Actually, even cosmic dust tends to follow Titius Pod's law. These cosmic dusts will be fixed on the orbits where planets should exist, and they will go round and round..."
Lang Xiaonian explained to him: "Just like the asteroid belt in the solar system, it formed a circle around the sun, and this circle was originally the orbit of a planet.
"Here, too, a belt of asteroids of a dozen formed around the alpha 61 Argonis red dwarf star.
"It's even hard to tell the difference between the asteroid belt and the Kuiper belt."
After entering the core distance of the star system, 10 astronomical units away from the red dwarf in the middle, the fleet shuts down the curvature engine, conducts ordinary propulsion flight, and continues to fly towards the red dwarf.
At the same time, the fleet used all the means of detection to observe the star system.
"The stars here are really fragmented, not a single complete planet." Lang Xiaonian sighed while observing.
Within the range that the fleet can detect, there is really not a complete planet.
"How big is the biggest?"
"The largest planet observed so far has a diameter of about 3,000 kilometers and is about the size of the moon. This should be the largest planet. It is basically impossible for a star system like this to produce life. If this star system is destroyed If it is destroyed like this, then this is really a tomb." Lang Xiaonian sighed.
In fact, a scientist put forward a point of view a long time ago.
The universe is a big tomb. Countless civilizations were born in the universe, and then died one by one. They were buried in this icy universe, submerged by the long river of time, without leaving any traces.
