Chapter 1093 Dangerous Experiment
On the earth, the Continent of Morning Earth, where the Dayang Group is located, is already in golden autumn, and it is the harvest season. It's just that everyone's eyes are mostly in space at this time.
In space, an unprecedented experiment is about to begin.
On Zhang Hao's left is Zhang Xiaoning, Zhou Xueyao's son. Today Zhang Xiaoning is already a master of the realm of the void, and is only one step away from the realm of returning to the true. Not only is his cultivation excellent, but his science and technology and research are also among the best. In the research and development of this time-travel technology, Zhang Xiaoning has participated in the research and development of the core technology.
The current Zhang Xiaoning can already be on his own.
On Zhang Hao's right is his daughter Zhang Xiaoxia who has just grown up. This is the daughter of Zhang Hao and Li Yuanyuan. Like most girls, although Zhang Xiaoxia has a good background, she does not like science and technology.
On the other hand, like most royal princesses, Zhang Xiaoxia loves politics since she was a child, and she targets Liu Xinyu!
Now he has repeatedly expressed his intention to intervene in the diplomatic affairs of Dayang Group, but Zhang Hao has pressed them all down. Girls from every family have such an idea, which is a little bit inconsistent with international safety standards.
In addition, Liu Xinyu also brought the crown prince Liu Xinhai over. Liu Xinhai is now 43 years old, but with a mother like Liu Xinyu, he can only do other things in the name of the prince for the time being.
In fact, the current crown princes and heirs of major groups all over the world are in such an embarrassing position. Even Zhang Xiaoning, the "Prince" of the Dayang Group, can only participate in scientific research, striving to be able to preside over one party, not the overall situation.
There are too many people around Zhang Hao watching the ceremony together.
In the space ahead, a specially-made spaceship is ready. Compared with other spaceships, the engine and nuclear fusion core of this spaceship take up half of the volume of the spaceship.
The entire spaceship looked more like a stubby rocket, and six engine blocks were 'bundled' at the back; each engine block had nine plasma engines.
There is also a main engine group in the very center, with a full 27 engines-so many can be packed in this position.
There are 20 large and small engines on the side and even in front of the spacecraft, which are used for steering, deceleration and other functions.
The spaceship is about 300 meters in length and 60 meters in diameter; its overall mass has reached 120,000 tons, exceeding the theoretical value of 80,000 tons—according to Dayang Group’s calculations and the data obtained from the Xuanhuang civilization data, only when the mass is greater than 8 When it reaches 0.3 times the speed of light, it can stir up the folds of space-time.
If it is too low, it will be "in vain". Too high and the engine won't work.
With Dayang Group's current technology, such a spaceship is already the most economical design. No matter how big it is, it is not impossible, but the cost will increase geometrically.
Spaceship technology, including the latest magnetic fluid generator, the latest plasma engine, the latest artificial gravity system, and the latest particle weapon-proton cannon, are all necessary technologies for traveling in time and space. The proton cannon, in particular, is the best weapon for breaking time and space—temporarily, and theoretically.
The proton cannon can be regarded as an alternative particle accelerator, which accelerates a series of protons to 0.99 times the speed of light. The space-time continuum.
This is real high technology, but also a real dangerous experiment. This is a challenge to the rules of time and space, and many methods of "deceiving the world" are used in it. If the operation is not done properly, even a master in the Realm of Guizhen will be shredded by time and space, and even atoms will not be left behind.
The pilot, or captain, in charge of this test was Feng Songjie, and the deputy captain was Yu Jiang.
The two had become pilots as early as Dayang Group produced the first passenger aircraft. Afterwards, there were various developments, but in the end they joined the space sequence, broke through the siege, and became the pilot of the first spaceship "Voyager".
And the cultivation bases of the two have also reached the realm of returning to the true state! No one knows what kind of problems the super-space shuttle will encounter, so the captain's cultivation base is higher, which seems to be safer.
The rest of the crew are almost all talents who are in the realm of the cave and have considerable scientific literacy. Even in Dayang Group, these talents are important talents, but in order to test the first hyperspace spaceship produced by Tianyuan Star in history, they have to engage in this extremely dangerous task.
There are too many dangers in this task.
If time travel is successful, what if you can't find your way back? This possibility is quite high. According to the calculation of spaceship designer Lin Yinghao and Zhao Dahe's astronomical calculation, the possibility is as high as half.
Note that this 'half' refers to the premise of successful hyperspace travel. If it doesn't work out, forget it.
In addition, there is a half chance of death in time travel - half the probability of death in the process of entering time travel. Everyone now has only a half-knowledge about the four-dimensional world and the theory of hyperspace. It's just that the huge survival pressure makes everyone have to take risks to try technology.
In the end, there is only a 30% probability that the spaceship can interrupt the continuity of time and space and cut into the hyperspace level!
In the end, even if everything goes well, if you encounter a powerful alien civilization that is not very friendly, you need to choose self-destruction immediately, absolutely and completely to prevent being captured.
In short, this is not a mature technology. Those who participated in the test had already prepared suicide notes in advance.
Because of the danger, the strictness, and the need for confidentiality, all the people who temporarily participated in this plan were members of the Dayang Group.
Zhang Hao watched quietly, without giving any orders at all.
It was the scientists who actually gave the ignition order. This is not a military operation, let alone a cool acrobatic show, this is a serious scientific research. Therefore, when to ignite, professional judges are needed.
Under the command of commander-in-chief Lin Yinghao, the spaceship started to ignite. First warm up and test. The engines on the spacecraft were ignited in pairs, and it was a powerful pulse ignition. After half an hour of testing, all engines are working normally and in perfect condition.
Then, after waiting another 17 hours, the order to fire all the fires was issued.
At this time, in terms of astronomy, the tangent direction of the Tianyuan star's revolution is roughly the same as the tangent direction of the sun's revolution, so that the spacecraft takes off from the Tianyuan star, and it will directly borrow the orbiting speed of 30 kilometers per second; and because its forward direction is just right In the same direction as the sun's revolution, you can borrow the sun's revolution speed - 250 kilometers per second!
All the engines emit light blue tail flames, which are high-temperature plasma. Then the tail flame gradually increased, and finally turned into a light blue pulse light path with a little bit of purple after a minute. The back of the spaceship is like a small blue sun, scorching people thousands of miles away with high temperature - at this time the spaceship has already flown thousands of miles away.
At this point, the engine was fully turned on, and the spacecraft rushed out at an acceleration of 500 meters. The acceleration of 500 meters is enough to crush ordinary people into pot stickers. Fortunately, the people with the lowest cultivation base on the spaceship are all in the Hollow Realm.
The spaceship flew out along the tangential direction of the orbit of the Tianyuan star. In this way, the revolution speed of the Tianyuan star itself can be borrowed to the greatest extent - 30 kilometers per second.
Although the speed of 30 kilometers per second is almost negligible at a speed of 0.3 times the speed of light and about 90,000 kilometers per second, it can save a little bit.
Under the gravitational force of the sun, the spaceship draws a more and more open arc, 'gradually' going away.
After the spacecraft accelerated for ten minutes, the spacecraft was more than 100,000 kilometers away from the Tianyuan star, and it had already left the orbit of the Tianyuan star and rushed to outer space.
At this time, the speed of the spacecraft is about 320 kilometers per second (relative to the Tianyuan star). The flames behind the spacecraft are still purple-blue, which is truly beautiful.
When the spacecraft accelerated for 30 minutes, it had left the Tianyuan star for about 1.8 million kilometers. Compared with the Tianyuan star, the speed of the spacecraft had reached 920 kilometers per second. By this time, the purplish-blue plume behind the spaceship had begun to fade in purple. The redshift phenomenon has already started to appear.
But at this time, the naked eye can hardly distinguish the tail flame of the spaceship, even for a master of Guizhen Realm. It can only be observed through the detectors arranged in front.
After the spacecraft accelerates for 10 hours, the speed of the spacecraft has reached 18,000 kilometers per second (relative to the sun). At this time, the tail flame of the spaceship has no purple at all, and the blue is no longer so bright, and a faint blush has begun to appear. The redshift phenomenon has already begun to be apparent.
At this time, the acceleration of the spacecraft also decreased from 500 meters to 492 meters.
But at this time the spacecraft has left Tianyuan star 330 million kilometers. The spacecraft has cut into the outer orbit of Jupiter. At this time, the flight path of the spacecraft is almost a straight line, and the gravitational force of the sun can almost be ignored.
At this time, the direction in which the spaceship is advancing basically coincides with the direction in which the sun revolves.
The spaceship was still accelerating, passing Jupiter, and then passing the orbits of planets. After 36 hours, it finally passed the orbit of Pluto, the outermost planet in the star system of Tianyuan Star, and entered the outer periphery of the star system. The distance traveled by the spacecraft has exceeded 3 billion kilometers.
The gravity of the sun is already extremely low here, and the spacecraft continues to accelerate.
At this time, the tail flame of the spacecraft seen from the telescope is already obviously red. The red shift phenomenon is already very obvious. In addition, as the speed increases, the mass of the spacecraft also increases, so the acceleration capability of the spacecraft gradually decreases from the initial 500 meters to 422 meters.
The speed of the spacecraft has reached 59,100 kilometers per second! It seems that 60% of the expected speed of 90,000 kilometers per second has been completed!
But the real difficulties had only just begun.
As the speed continues to increase, there will be some changes and disturbances in the workload of the plasma engine. Space-time and energy influence each other. Moreover, as the speed increased, the redshift phenomenon became more and more obvious, and the acceleration ability of the spacecraft also began to decrease. However, the energy consumption of the spaceship is still rising.
Increased power consumption and reduced power caused the ship's hull to tremble.
Captain Feng Songjie calmly checked the operation status of the engine and nuclear island, and after consulting the computer control personnel, he ordered the load to be reduced by 3%.
The ability of the spacecraft to accelerate is affected somewhat, which will take more time to reach the desired speed. However, the performance of the spacecraft has stabilized.
The spacecraft continued to accelerate, and after accelerating again for 54 hours, the speed of the spacecraft finally reached 30% of the planned speed of light, 90,000 kilometers per second. Speed is even a little bit more than that.
On the spacecraft's brand-new detection instrument, space-time ripples appeared as expected, which can also be called space-time folds.
On the detector, one or two inconspicuous fluctuations appear in the space ahead, and they present a hemispherical envelope in front of the spacecraft.
This fluctuation is still invisible and intangible, but it can be detected by relying on professional detectors—distortion and refraction of the light in front, electromagnetic rays, etc.
Time and space become extremely uneven!
Feng Songjie took a deep breath and ordered: "Reserve 55% of the engine power, and check the engine in turn.
The remaining energy is transferred to the proton cannon. The proton cannon is ready to store energy, check the parameters of the proton cannon, and make sure to achieve zero error!
The investigation team prepares, summarizes the law of space-time folds, and calculates the best attack time of the proton cannon!
The rest of the crew took their positions and prepared according to the training. Remember, no matter what happens in space, during the time travel, you must protect the spaceship!
Without the spacecraft, we would all be gone forever.
Combat team, wearing mechs. Level 1 preparations! "
"yes!"
Everyone answered seriously.
The atmosphere became serious, and the countdown ended little by little. Finally, at a certain moment, when all the data was gathered to Feng Songjie, Feng Songjie and the deputy captain Yu Jiang stamped and signed respectively, and officially issued the order:
"Proton cannon, launch!"
