Chapter 465: Xinghai fishing

On January 18, after three days of high-speed sailing, Xinghai Explorer-1 was approaching the asteroid belt.
It started shutting down the main engine and flew towards the asteroid belt using inertia.
When the main engine is turned off, the intelligent computer sends a message to the earth that it is about to reach the asteroid belt through the neutrino communicator.
This information passed through multiple relay satellites deployed along the spacecraft.
It took only a dozen seconds to start relaying the information back to Earth. The earth received the message from Xinghai Explorer 1.
Li Hao looked at the information sent by Xinghai Explorer No. 1 and said with satisfaction: "It seems that the deployment of neutrino communication relay satellites through spacecraft is a successful method.
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the virtual light curtain, which showed the neutrino communication relay satellite deployment map in space.
The most dense places are around the earth, a total of ten neutrino communication relay satellites.
The second is the three neutrino communication relay satellites on the moon.
A neutrino communication relay satellite orbiting Mars.
At the Lagrange point of Earth and Mars, there is also a neutrino communication relay satellite.
There are 15 relay satellites in total, forming a neutrino communication network. It only takes a dozen seconds delay to communicate with the spacecraft.
The bandwidth of their composition is very large, and even the high-definition images captured by the spacecraft can be directly viewed.
Niu Zhengfeng asked Li Hao: "General Li, Xinghai Explorer-1 has reached the periphery of the asteroid belt.
Whether to let it start capturing asteroids now. "
Li Hao nodded in agreement: "Now that it has reached the asteroid belt, let it do its utmost. It shows the ability of our hard-designed spacecraft."
After hearing Niu ’s orders, Niu Zhengfeng immediately gave instructions to the spacecraft and agreed to launch an asteroid capture program.
After he gave the order, his nervousness suddenly relaxed a lot. Everything awaits the performance of the spacecraft.
"Mr. Li, does the silicon gold crystal material exactly match the test results? The spacecraft is equipped with a 5 cm thick silicon gold crystal shell.
Asteroids in the asteroid belt run very fast.
With the relatively large hull of the spaceship, only large asteroids can be avoided, and small asteroids cannot be avoided at all.
After entering the asteroid belt, it can only rely on the hard shell to stop the asteroid attack. "
Li Hao said confidently: "You don't need to worry about this kind of thing, don't look at it is only five centimeters thick, but the silicon gold crystals of this thickness have data that is many times stronger than the five-meter-thick super strong steel plate."
They were talking, and Star Explorer One in the asteroid belt had transmitted back a high-definition video of it entering the asteroid belt.
Xinghai Explorer 1 cuts in at the speed of ten kilometers per second from the edge of the asteroid belt.
When the huge hull entered the asteroid belt, it encountered many material impacts.
Many dust-sized materials are not considered asteroids, but only cosmic floating objects.
There are also fist-sized asteroids that hit the Deep Sea Explorer One at different speeds.
The relative speed of the formation of asteroids and Xinghai Explorer-1 is huge.
The kinetic energy they carry is enough to destroy a few meters of super alloy steel plate.
Xinghai Explorer No. 1, without any evasion. Go straight to the established route.
When the asteroid hit the shell of Xinghai Explorer-1.
The asteroid was immediately destroyed by the huge kinetic energy, but the shell of Xinghai Explorer-1 did not change.
Not even a depression occurred, it was intact.
Xinghai Explorer-1 ignored these very small asteroids directly.
Asteroids hit the shell, like rhythmic music. Drumming in the universe.
Only when it encountered an asteroid with a diameter of more than ten meters. The universal sub-ion engine installed on the bottom of Xinghai Explorer 1 will start.
It explored its surroundings with all its strength, and began to predict the trajectory of the asteroid impact, and to avoid such asteroids.
Xinghai Explorer-1 performs various difficult maneuvers in the asteroid belt.
At the same time, it is exploring the target it intends to capture.
Doppler radar and neutrino scanners constantly scan for asteroids near Xinghai Explorer 1.
With an asteroid belt, the energy consumed and the mechanical losses of the equipment are of great value.
Selecting asteroids to repair the moon, small asteroids have no effect at all.
It is exploring asteroids with a diameter of three to five kilometers.
Asteroids smaller than this diameter are not worth the shot at all and are too costly.
Asteroids larger than this diameter are completely beyond the capabilities of Star Explorer One.
Forcibly capturing such asteroids is likely to cause damage to the spacecraft.
As Xinghai Explorer 1 searches for targets, he also collects some asteroids that are considered valuable.
Xinghai Explorer-1 detected an asteroid with a diameter of more than ten meters ahead.
Neutrino scanners have detected rare items inside the asteroid.
The giant manipulator of Xinghai Explorer-1 immediately went out of the capsule to capture this asteroid.
The manipulator with huge bite force directly grasped the asteroid tightly and dragged it into its warehouse.
Coming to the asteroid belt is not just about finding an asteroid that can repair the moon.
If you encounter valuable asteroids. Robots will also be sent for acquisition.
Xinghai Explorer 1 has not found an asteroid that meets his goals.
But with the high penetration of neutrinos, many valuable asteroids have been discovered. It was collected in the cabin.
Xinghai Explorer 1 is like a fishing boat traveling in space. While pursuing what it wants to find, it also catches the "fish" that it considers valuable.
Suddenly an asteroid matching his goal was detected ahead.
This asteroid is also a hard asteroid composed of materials such as iron and silicon.
Rather than an asteroid composed of substances such as floating ice crystals.
Xinghai Explorer-1 cannot collect the latter asteroid at all.
He immediately came near the target's asteroid, based on the results detected by the neutrino scanner. The diameter of this asteroid is about 3.5 kilometers.
Xinghai Explorer One immediately circled behind this asteroid.
The giant manipulator in front of it immediately extended ten meters outwards and stuck directly on the spacecraft.
After Xinghai Explorer No. 1 pinpointed the location. The main engine starts and accelerates in pulses.
He directly gave the asteroid a millennium kill.
Xinghai Explorer-1 crashed directly into the target asteroid.
A large pit more than ten meters deep was struck directly on the asteroid.
Xinghai Explorer 1 spit out a giant robot slowly.
Under the thrust of the manipulator, the spacecraft came directly to the surface of the asteroid.
The giant manipulator was stuck directly on the asteroid, and it was stuck very tightly.
Xinghai Explorer 1 begins the next step.
It sees itself as a pendulum ~ EbookFREE.me ~ ion engine starts.
It's like a mouse pulling a cart, using the power of the engine.
Tow an asteroid and change its direction of travel.
The force of the asteroid's forward movement is still due to gravity and inertia.
Xinghai Explorer No.1 just acts as a person at the helm.
It can only slightly control the direction of this asteroid.
But in the vast universe, this ability is already incredible.
Xinghai Explorer-1 uses this ability to start adjusting the asteroid's trajectory.
The speed of this asteroid is even faster than the full power acceleration of the spacecraft.
Formed a large arc orbit, hit the moon.
