Chapter 248 Wandering Planet
The reason why Chen Mu noticed the existence of Pluto was because Pluto was too conspicuous.
Of course, Pluto is nothing compared to Chen Mu, who is now extremely large, but Pluto at this moment is much more conspicuous and larger than the nearby asteroids.
There are a lot of asteroids in the Kuiper Belt, but these asteroids are as small as dust, the larger ones are only a few meters in size, and most of them are just inconspicuous rocks.
But Pluto is much larger than these asteroids.
Pluto was previously considered the ninth planet in the solar system, but in fact Pluto is smaller than the moon, with only one-third the volume and one-sixth the mass of the moon.
Of course, just because it is small in size and mass does not mean it is not a planet.
There are currently three conditions for judging planets.
One is that a celestial body must revolve around the sun, and Pluto complies with this requirement.
The second point is that a celestial body must be able to turn itself into a spherical shape through its own gravity, which Pluto also conforms to.
The third point is that celestial bodies must have the ability to clear the area near their orbits. And this is exactly what Pluto cannot do.
Because Pluto's orbit is within the Kuiper Belt, those asteroids near its orbit cannot be cleared away by Pluto's gravity.
This resulted in Pluto being directly kicked out of the ranks of planets.
But since Pluto already meets all two conditions, but is not a planet, it has a new name called a dwarf planet.
Chen Mu looked at Pluto, and then used his control ability.
Pluto flew directly towards Chen Mu.
Chen Mu's whole body turned into a golden ball of light and he ate it in one bite.
Too small.
The feeling that Pluto brings to Chen Mu is that he has no feeling.
Chen Mu looked at the dark space ahead.
He whispered helplessly: "It's so slow."
The speed of light is so slow.
But there is no other way to slow down. If you want to obtain evolutionary energy, you can only continue to fly.
"By the way, I remember watching some science fiction movies before, which mentioned warp engines, which can run at super-light speeds. I should also be able to learn about warp engines, so that I can also Traveling faster than the speed of light is much faster."
Chen Mu said: "System, can I use the warp engine to move faster than light?"
"Okay." The system answered Chen Mu in the same mechanical voice as always.
Sure enough it can.
wrong! Chen Mu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he thought of a question.
The system will find answers to its own questions based on the knowledge base, but the system has always been mechanized, without any thinking or emotion.
It will give you direct answers to the questions you ask, but it won't give you any more explanations.
Well, the warp drive itself can indeed be used.
It can be used, but that doesn't mean it will work.
Chen Mu thought for a moment, and then asked tentatively, "What do I need to use the warp engine?"
"We need to build a warp engine." The system answered.
Isn't this nonsense?
Chen Mu said: "How long does it take to build a warp engine?"
"If you want to create a warp engine, you can use atoms to create it and use templates to create it yourself. If you want to create a warp engine that can transfer your current size and mass, it will take 600 million years." The system still uses that A mechanical voice spoke.
Chen Mu was silent.
pit.
This system is a real pitfall, a big pitfall.
Fortunately, I kept an eye out, otherwise, I would have stepped directly into this big pit.
Chen Mu could only give up this idea.
The warp engine folds space to form a unique space channel, and entering this channel is restricted by body size and mass.
The smaller the warp drive, the better it performs.
Chen Mu currently has a mass of 1.4 times the size of Jupiter. If he wants to build a super-light warp engine for his own use, it will take a long time.
Chen Mu could only continue to bury his head and fly forward.
Suddenly, Chen Mu's eyes lit up slightly.
Chen Mu was stunned when he saw the scene.
"What's this?"
A light blue light appeared in the space ahead.
This light was like the aurora in Antarctica, covering everything in front of Chen Mu.
This thin light blue light looks like a huge veil, covering the world in front of it.
It's like a barrier covering the solar system.
Chen Mu never thought that there was such a thing outside the solar system.
What is this?
Chen Mu flew over with a doubtful attitude.
He quickly passed through the veil and stepped out.
He subconsciously looked back behind him.
Upon taking a look, Chen Mu found that the veil was extremely large, covering the entire solar system.
"System, what is that?"
"It is a phenomenon caused by the collision of the solar wind blowing from the sun and the interstellar radiation in interstellar space."
The sun will rotate. When the sun rotates, just like the earth's rotation will form a magnetic field, the sun's rotation will also form a magnetic field.
Due to the influence of rotation, the sun experiences many solar activities, and solar wind is one of them.
After the solar wind flies out, there is a limit.
These extreme solar winds form a unique solar top layer, which, like the Earth's magnetic field, forms a shield for the solar system to withstand interstellar radiation outside the solar system.
The light blue veil that Chen Mu just saw was the image formed by the collision of solar wind and interstellar radiation.
And that place is the boundary between the solar system and the outside of the universe. We call it the heliosphere.
It is the end of the solar system.
Of course, the heliosphere is just a phenomenon caused by the collision of plasma. For Chen Mu, it is not "edible".
After Chen Mu was curious, he continued to fly out.
As the distance got farther and farther, the veil could not be seen.
Chen Mu was flying in space.
After leaving the solar system, he could not see any other planets near him. In his conscious vision, there was only the empty self and the dark world.
Chen Mu, who was separated from the angel form, could see the stars surrounding him.
The stars were right under his feet, on the left, and on top.
But they were very far away.
There was nothing around, almost nothing.
From a distance, you can see the earth and the moon flying towards the distance.
When a planet leaves its own star system, then that celestial body can no longer be defined as a planet.
Because it does not meet the first condition of being a planet, which is to revolve around a star.
Because it was originally a planet, it will have a new name called "wandering planet".
The current Chen Mu's body is the Earth, or he should call it the Wandering Earth.
At the same time.
Because of Chen Mu's actions, the creatures on the Earth also ushered in their doomsday.
