The experiment has not been completed yet, Yang Yuping has already given the answer to the experiment and provided the best defense strategy.
The experiment for the next half an hour all confirmed Yang Yuping's inference.
The main substance of silicon-based naphtha is silicon, and its terrible thing is that it can convert any element into silicon.
This ability has exceeded the scientific understanding of mankind at this stage.
In the human scientific system, the elements on the periodic table can be changed into other elements, but the conditions are very harsh.
Both nuclear fusion and nuclear fission have undergone elemental changes.
However, the only elements that humans can change are those isotopes that can undergo nuclear reactions.
The silicon-based naphtha is completely different, it can convert all elements into silicon.
At least from the results of the current test, it can indeed transform all elements. The only difference is the speed of the conversion.
Yang Yuping reached a very delicate conclusion through calculation and analysis.
The key point of this conclusion lies in the element silicon.
The number of silicon on the periodic table is 14.
The serial number of iron is 26.
In nuclear reactions, whether it is nuclear fusion or nuclear fission, there is a rule.
An element lighter than iron, fusion releases energy, fission absorbs energy.
The opposite is true for elements heavier than iron. Fusion absorbs energy and fission releases energy.
Therefore, when the silicon-based naphtha is to convert matter into silicon, a conversion forbidden zone will be created due to the law of nuclear reaction.
That is, from No. 14 silicon to No. 26 iron, the 11 elements in the middle are phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine, argon, potassium, calcium, scandium, titanium, vanadium, chromium, and manganese.
Because these 11 elements need to absorb huge energy if they are to be converted into silicon.
In the universe, in the natural state, these 11 elements will not undergo fission, because nothing will provide energy for such changes.
This means that if the silicon-based naphtha is to convert these 11 elements into silicon, it needs to provide huge energy to complete such a transformation.
Zhao Anya quickly discovered a phenomenon under "Star Energy Spectroscopy Analysis", which confirmed Yang Yuping’s inference: "In addition to silicon, there is a certain amount of chromium and manganese in the silicon-based naphtha. I didn’t have Note that this should be the selective non-conversion of these elements by the silica-based naphtha.
"Silicon-based naphtha only needs to convert other easily transformable elements into silicon, and the remaining 11 elements are left in the body directly."
Fang Yuan understood the key point almost instantly after listening to the conclusions given by Yang Yuping. After thinking quickly, he issued the order: "Make every effort to prepare the calcium element and create a protective layer."
Not only the Shenzhou, but the entire fleet mobilized and began arranging strategies to prepare elemental calcium.
The reason for choosing calcium is also carefully considered.
On general planets, the ranking of soil element content is oxygen, silicon, aluminum, iron, and calcium.
The first four cannot be used, only calcium elemental is the easiest to obtain.
In the natural environment, the elemental calcium is a silver-white solid at room temperature with active chemical properties. Therefore, elemental calcium rarely exists in nature, mostly in the form of ions or compounds.
However, with human technology, there is no difficulty in preparing calcium.
The Counterattack received the order, approached the Shenzhou, used electromagnetic towing, and pulled the Shenzhou forward to maintain the orbital speed, so that the Shenzhou would not fall into the red dwarf.
The rest of the warships began to excavate rocks and cosmic dust in the α61 star system in the constellation of Rectangularis, and began to prepare calcium.
This process is relatively simple. The planets in α61 in the constellation of the square have been broken into cosmic dust belts. Get close to these dust belts and drag the cosmic dust with a diameter of hundreds of meters into the spacecraft to decompose and prepare calcium.
The operation to rescue the Shenzhou ship continued.
Counterattack towed Shenzhou and flew around the red dwarf.
It is impossible to use electromagnetic traction to make Shenzhou break free from the gravitational restraint of the red dwarf, but it is still possible to maintain its orbiting speed.
The Shenzhou shell was covered with vines of silicon-based naphtha, but persisted stubbornly, not falling into a red dwarf star, and insisting not to be eroded by the internal structure of the silicon-based naphtha.
Fang Yuan folded his arms and stood in the void, blocking between Shenzhou and the red dwarf.
In the plasma layer of the red dwarf, vines with silicon-based naphtha spread out from time to time, trying to bind the Shenzhou.
If the silicon-based stone brains in the red dwarf star hold the Shenzhou, it will take a few minutes to drag the Shenzhou into the red dwarf.
At that time, even if enough calcium is prepared, it is useless.
Therefore, Fang Yuan stood in front of Shenzhou and the red dwarf, folded his arms and orbited quietly, seemingly doing nothing, but as long as the silicon-based naphtha in the red dwarf stretched out of the vine, he would crush it with a punch. .
Although the erosion of the silicon-based naphtha in the red dwarf was blocked, the silicon-based naphtha vine on the Shenzhou could not be dealt with.
She can only rely on Han Youwei alone and resist with star power, which puts her under great pressure.
Even so, the silicon-based naphtha is still eroding the internal structure of the Shenzhou a little bit. If this continues, the Shenzhou will fall.
Six hours after the rescue operation, calcium elementary substances began to be transported back in bulk.
The Shenzhou space force began to build a protective layer of calcium inside the Shenzhou.
After six hours of hard work, the construction of the calcium elemental protective layer was finally completed.
"The inspection is complete, there are no missing gaps." After Ye Zheyu used all the detection methods to confirm that there were no gaps in the protective layer, the notification was completed.
"Very well, enable the calcium elemental protective layer. After you confirm that the calcium elemental protective layer is working, you can rest." Fang Yuan issued an order.
Han Youwei began to shrink the star power defense layer.
After the silicon-based naphtha eroded the outer material, it came into contact with the protective layer of calcium.
As expected, the erosion of the silicon-based naphtha stopped and was blocked by a protective layer of calcium.
"The calcium elemental protective layer is effective." Ye Zheyu continued to observe and reported the situation.
"Very well, the outside of Shenzhou is ready to spray calcium elemental." Fang Yuan immediately gave the order for the second step.
In the fleet, two destroyers approached the Shenzhou, using modified kinetic cannons, loaded with calcium element, and sprayed calcium element on the silicon naphtha on the outside of Shenzhou.
The silver-white calcium element was sprayed on the silica-based naphtha, like spray paint, covering it layer by layer, and finally the entire Shenzhou was dyed silver-white.
After the completion of the two steps, the silica-based naphtha was completely blocked and wrapped by calcium.
This also announced that the first step of the Shenzhou rescue operation has been successful.
Next, we must consider how to deal with silicon-based naphtha.
"Fang Yuan, I need a silicon-based naphtha as a research material. This kind of organism completely breaks the law of elements and has a huge impact on the progress of science and technology."
After the initial success of the rescue operation, Yang Yuping put forward scientific research requirements.
