Half-immortal civilization

"Report, under inspection."

The reason just now is very simple, that is, with the rope connecting the spaceship and the planet, the spaceship with a relative speed exceeding 150 meters per second is instantly subjected to the huge traction force of the planet.Although it is said that after the reduction of carbon fiber, the action time of this force increases and the force decreases several times; but such a large drag force still puts the spaceship structure under severe test.

You know, in just a few seconds, being forced to slow down by 150 meters is nothing for a small thing; but for a spaceship weighing more than 70 tons and a length of 1100 meters, it is nothing to steel Structure a huge test.If the quality of the spacecraft is slightly larger, the force just now is enough to break the spacecraft and disintegrate in space.

After all, when the spacecraft was designed, acceleration was considered. Even if it was decelerating in space, all the engines worked together, and the deceleration force was evenly distributed to every corner of the huge spacecraft.Instead of this, it was directly dragged to stop by the position of the tail.

In space, the carbon fiber rope that is constantly trembling due to tension is shaking violently, like a whip, whipping the empty space, and the alarm on the spacecraft is constantly sounding; under such circumstances, the best way and the most responsible The method is to let personnel carry various instruments to check at the hook at the tail.

It wasn't until more than an hour later that everyone breathed a sigh of relief: fortunately, those bastards in the factory were still responsible, and the spaceship's hook position was unscathed.

It's actually shocking to think about it.Just a few seconds ago, the spacecraft was slowed down by 150 meters, and the maximum stress in an instant was as high as 600 million tons.This kind of force is enough to pull steel as thick as a human into noodles.

Although it is said that the drag force of the spaceship is designed to reach more than 700 million tons, after all, the power of the spaceship itself is as high as 500 million tons; but it is achieved through the data obtained after slow acceleration and distributed to the entire body of the spaceship, not achieved in an instant. The concentrated action is on the tail.

The mass of the planet is too heavy, and if the spacecraft is decelerated instantly, too many unpredictable things may happen.Fortunately, the quality of the spacecraft passed the test.

"Ignition! The overall power increases at a rate of 1% per minute. Pay attention to check the status of the spacecraft!"

Mu Xinghai pressed his lips tightly; while others were excited, he was thinking overloaded.Dragging a planet looks crazy and sci-fi; but for the person in charge.It is a huge challenge!If any problems occur during the whole process.All of them may affect the balance of the solar system-although this possibility is very small, but what if it happens? !

There is a word called the butterfly effect on the earth, and it is very interesting that there is a similar word in space: the Yakovsky effect! ! !

"Squeak..." The steel structure of the spaceship was indignant!After more than an hour.The output power of the spacecraft has reached 70%.However, the spaceship doesn't seem to be moving much!Like a person dragging a boulder.No matter how hard you are, you just don't move!No progress!

And now, it's the same phenomenon!

only.There is a big difference between space and Earth, and that is friction!There is no friction in space!On Earth, objects will only move if a critical value is exceeded; but in space, even a gram of force acting on a planet will produce a change—but this change is difficult to detect.

This is the case at this moment.

It has been two hours, and the power of the spacecraft has been fully turned on. The four spacecraft have a total output of 2000 million tons of thrust. The carbon fiber rope made of graphene has been stretched straight, but Ceres still looks unchanged!Still following its own existing orbit and "youzaiyouzai" forward, instead it led the spaceship to constantly adjust its direction.

In the past, someone used ants and elephants as a metaphor for being overwhelmed!At this moment, the master company uses practical actions to show what is called new overreaching behavior in the new era!
The diameter of Ceres is nearly 960 kilometers, while the length of the carbon fiber rope is only more than 700 kilometers on one side; therefore, in fact, the vertical distance between the spacecraft and the surface of Ceres is only more than 300 kilometers.Most importantly, the diameter of Ceres is about 960 kilometers, while the length of the spacecraft is only 1.1 kilometers!From a distance, it looks like four ants are dragging an elephant forward!

Not to mention, the thrust of 2000 million tons seems powerful, big enough to bring a devastating disaster to the earth; but in space, it is still a bit powerless to drag Ceres!
The mass of Ceres is about 9.5 million tons!Even if the mass of the spacecraft itself is negligible, calculated in this way, 2000% of the 100 million tons of thrust acts on Ceres, and the acceleration of Ceres’ changes is still only about two parts per billion—that is, when the spacecraft keeps outputting In the case of constant power, every billion seconds, Ceres can only change the speed of 2 meters per second.And Ceres has an approximate speed of 16 kilometers per second...

10 billion seconds ≈ 32 years! ! !
32 years!And so the output power has remained the same!It can only change the speed of 2 meters!

In fact, the power carried by the spacecraft can only work continuously for 50 hours, excluding the energy and survival needs of the earth flying to Ceres, the working time is only more than 30 hours!

If it is really calculated like this, even if the master company develops rapidly in the later stage, even if it develops geometrically and explosively, it will take hundreds of years to drag a Ceres; in fact, the plan to snipe Venus involves dozens of large and small stars. at least to change Venus to an environment with almost the same gravity as Earth - which would require almost a tenth of Earth's mass to make up.

Calculated in this way, if the master company wants to "completion" Venus, it needs at least seven or eight planets the size of Ceres, or this much mass of matter-calculated in this way, if the master company wants to enter Venus within a hundred years, it will be almost impossible. Dreaming, fantasy dreams that are more powerful than daydreams!

Just the process of dragging the planet would take thousands of years, and during this period, the impact of the plan on the solar system would have to be constantly revised. This kind of analysis made the whole world feel that the master company is also whimsical!

But... Since the master company has been preparing for this plan for more than ten years, and has carried out a lot of simulation calculations, might it not consider this issue?
Of course, some experts explained this way: the master company has no place to use its money and strength, and it just lays the foundation for the future Chinese nation.There is nothing wrong with this statement, there is a certain truth, and many people in the country still accept it.

But don't forget that a master company is an enterprise - an enterprise is for profit!Even if everyone has no objections, it is impossible for the master company to really be able to sustain it.An enterprise is not a country, and without long-term interests, dissolution is inevitable; even Zhang Jingyuan cannot reverse it.

However, since Zhang Jingyuan dared to do it, there must be a solution, and it can be effective in a short time; otherwise, how dare the master company say that it will land on Venus in a hundred years! (To be continued..)
