Earth Era

Chapter 47 Energy Explosion

"Angelina, hello, I'm Raguel." After tidying up his hair and beard, Raguel began to speak to the camera and recorder, "Perhaps you already know about the Crimson Heart universe. The spaceship news, yes, according to Zhao Huasheng's prophecy, we are about to encounter a misfortune, and whether we can escape from this misfortune, only God knows. So, this passage may be my last words. "

"You probably know the misfortune that has happened to me. My parents, wife and son were killed in an accident ten years ago. I also know the misfortune that happened to you. If you hadn't chosen to be with your alcoholic If your husband divorces, I think you will be tortured and go crazy sooner or later."

"Well... how should I put it, I'm sorry, I don't know what to say." Ragel smiled self-deprecatingly, "I can feel that there is always a feeling of affection between us, I think, You probably like me too. I know that you broke the water pipe on purpose and asked me to fix it. If I read correctly, you also broke the lamp on purpose? Yes, what am I I know it all, but I never tell the truth. Because I would be more than happy to go to your house."

"And me...Actually, I hurt my hand on purpose that time, because that's why I asked you for help, and asked you to come to my house to help me clean up the house. Yes, I really hope you can come to my house .”

"My mood has been very conflicted. On the one hand, I have been immersed in the self-blame for the death of my loved ones, and on the other hand, I also very much hope to be with you and start a family again. I have been stuck in the Between these two emotions, I never confessed or promised anything to you. But in this may be the last night of my life, I figured everything out. I think, after all, people can't just live in the past. Come to think of it, even my dead parents, wife, and son hoped that I could start a new life and let myself and my loved ones live happily. So, I express my heartfelt wishes at this moment to You confess, because if I don't do this, I probably won't have a chance in the future."

"Angelina, if I can return to Earth, I will definitely propose to you. In the meantime, don't worry that Jamie's presence will hinder the relationship between the two of us. Jamie is a wonderful lad , he is your son, if we can combine, I will treat him as my son. I will shoulder the burden of the family, take good care of you and Jamie, and never let you leave again. "

"That's it. It's time for me to rest and prepare for the next day's challenge. Dear Angelina, goodbye."

After saying these words, Raggle pressed the send button and sent this message back to Earth. After finishing these things, Raggle stayed in the communication room for a while, and then left here.

The astronauts knew that there would be no reply to the messages they sent. Because when sending these messages, they have already stated their attitude to the base, and during this period of time, they will no longer receive any non-work related messages.

"Okay, it's time for everyone to go to rest." Lager said to the astronauts, "I have already programmed the spacecraft to work automatically, so there is no need for anyone to be on duty tonight. Everyone sleep well Get ready for the challenge of the next day."

The astronauts dispersed separately and entered a quiet and steady dreamland. They all have quite strong mental qualities, so the upcoming challenge will not cause them sleep disturbance.

In the vast space, with the huge sun as the background, this small spaceship is running quietly. In contrast, the earth is far from quiet.

There are still countless staff working day and night, trying to find new ways to increase the chances of the Scarlet Heart spacecraft surviving the solar energy burst. All properly positioned ground-based telescopes and all space optical telescopes capable of observing the sun have their lenses pointed at the sun. They are going to record all the things that may happen after the Moth impactor hits the sun-even if the Red Heart spacecraft is finally destroyed, people must find out what destroyed the spacecraft.

Almost all human beings are silently waiting for the moment of 3:30 in the afternoon.

Zhao Huasheng was also waiting for this moment. It is now eleven o'clock in the morning, and there are still four and a half hours before three thirty in the afternoon.

The Moth impactor is less than one million kilometers away from the surface of the sun, and has entered the range of the corona.

The corona is the outermost layer of the sun's atmosphere. Its temperature is extremely high, but its density is extremely low, just like the ionosphere of the earth's atmosphere. Judging from the structure of the Moth impactor, it is far from being destroyed by the sun here. However, the sun's strong magnetic field and signal interference caused some failures in the communication equipment of the Moth impactor, which caused the Red Heart spacecraft to only intermittently receive some fragmentary information about the solar atmosphere from it. Immediately after receiving these messages, the astronauts relayed them back to Earth.

This is the first time that a spacecraft made by humans has come so close to the sun, and it has also obtained first-hand information directly from the surface of the sun. The preciousness of these materials is beyond doubt.

Because the distance is too far, the Moth impactor is too small, and the background interference is too strong, the optical telescope on the spacecraft has been unable to capture the impactor. However, the friction between the impactor moving at a very high speed and the corona of the sun's atmosphere will release extremely intense light and radiation, and through these light and radiation, the spacecraft can still locate the position of the impactor and perform tracking and shooting.

The picture about the impactor was transmitted to the earth base in this way. On the big screen, Zhao Huasheng saw the vast and boundless sun as the background, and above it was a thin white line, and this thin line was constantly extending, constantly approaching the sun.

This thin line is caused by friction between the Moth impactor and the corona.

Time passed bit by bit, and there were only two hours and forty minutes left before the expected impact time. At this time, the image of the impactor and the signal transmitted from it disappeared completely.

But Zhao Huasheng knew that matter cannot disappear for no reason. Although humans can no longer capture any information about the Moth impactor, its wreckage must be heading towards the sun according to the previous orbit.

"Let's wait." Zhao Huasheng said.

After more than two hours, whether the fate of the Red Heart spacecraft and the most important part of the solar exploration program that human civilization has spent countless efforts to promote will go to waste, and whether the efforts of human civilization will be wasted, These results will be finally revealed.

On the earth, countless people are paying attention to the movement of the Red Heart spacecraft and the progress of this incident. The largest blessing activity in human society began, and tens of millions of people participated in the blessing activity. For a time, churches, squares, and temples everywhere were overcrowded.

The astronauts have all hid in the material storage warehouse at the rear of the spacecraft, and they even put on the spacesuits that they only need to wear when performing extravehicular activities. All non-essential instruments were turned off, and except for the material storage warehouse, the life support systems in the rest of the parts were even turned off. All the preparatory work has been done, now, just waiting for the final moment to come.

At this time, Captain Raggle asked the remaining four astronauts: "Do you regret choosing this path?"

"No, we don't regret it. If I were given another chance to choose, I would still make this choice." The other four said together. So Ragel also laughed: "Yes, I don't regret it either."

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the impact time in the distance measurement was getting closer and closer. Finally, after glancing at the precise clock, Zhao Huasheng said: "The impact should have happened. But the impact of the impact has not yet been transmitted to us."

Some 150 million kilometers away, the surface of the sun was hit by a small man-made object. The Red Heart spacecraft is 30 million kilometers away from the impact point, and the speed of light needs to travel 100 seconds to affect it. However, it takes a full eight minutes for the earth base to observe the impact process.

After Zhao Huasheng said the words just now, another hundred seconds passed. So Zhao Huasheng said again: "If the burst of solar energy is electromagnetic waves, then the energy has already reached the spacecraft at this moment."

The signal carrying the impact process is propagating toward the earth at the speed of light, and all available observation equipment on the earth is pointing in the direction of the sun at this moment.

"If I didn't make a mistake, we will receive the impact signal after ten seconds," Zhao Huasheng said.

The second hand of the clock is constantly beating. It has been as long as a century, and finally, it points from three to five.

Ten seconds passed.

Zhao Huasheng raised his head and looked at the sun. He didn't know if it was an illusion or what happened. Zhao Huasheng seemed to feel that the luminosity of the sun seemed to be a little brighter than before at this moment.

"We detected extremely high-intensity X-rays and gamma-rays, and in the visible light band, the level of solar radiation has also increased by three percent!"

Everything was as Zhao Huasheng expected, because of the impact of the moth impactor, the sun at this moment burst out with unprecedented powerful energy.
