Homo sapiens - Chapter 659 Set sail

Solar system, ancient cypress belt.

The void is about 4.1 billion kilometers away from Pluto.

A star with a radius of 150 kilometers has been swallowed up by nanorobots made of living metal.

This large asteroid, codenamed “Kingfisher Star”, was transformed into an artificial planet densely covered with various facilities.

If it were a Homo sapiens company that had not acquired the technology of the omnic civilization, it would have taken at least ten years to transform such a planet, and the planet was located in the outer layer of the Cooper Belt, to reach its current scale.

After acquiring the technology of the omnic civilization, its planetary transformation speed has been increased by several orders of magnitude.

It only took about 4 months to complete the renovation of Kingfisher Star.

At present, the transformation project of the Kingfisher Star has been completed. The original shape of this planet was similar to the core of an almond. After the transformation, it became a nearly spherical shape.

And right on the near-spherical equator of Kingfisher Star, a huge artificial star ring structure is surrounding it.

In order to gather enough materials to transform Kingfisher, the Kuiper Belt Colonial Branch mined almost all the asteroids within 500 million kilometers around it.

At this time, a special fire spacecraft on the artificial star ring of Kingfisher Star has completed its final maintenance work.

Zhao Changfeng, Dr. Lexington and others who came from the Saturn Colonization Branch via synchronous robots also appeared here.

Los Ali, who had been busy on Kingfisher Planet for more than a month, saw the arrival of the two men and quickly floated over:

“Doctor, this is the final test report. Take a look at it. If there are no problems, I will arrange the launch.”

Dr. Lexington took the biological tablet with a very serious expression on his face. He carefully looked at every data in the test report.

This launch is the first time that the Civilized Fire has been put into actual use. The previous twenty times were just tests, and there are still some differences.

After reading it carefully twice, Dr. Lexington signed it: “Okay, Lose, you can arrange the launch!”

“OK.” Los Ali nodded.

The fire spacecraft carrying the core of civilization’s fire was dragged to the electromagnetic acceleration pipeline.

The pipe superconducting coil in the electromagnetic acceleration orbit was quickly activated, and the super strong Lorentz force pushed the Spark spacecraft to slowly accelerate.

In the electromagnetic acceleration orbit surrounding the Kingfisher Star Ring Pipe, the speed of the Fire Spaceship increased little by little.

Until the speed reaches the critical point of 20 per second.

“Change the track!”

“receive!”

One point of the circular electromagnetic track is connected to a straight section of electromagnetic track.

In an instant, the Spark spacecraft followed the turning point and entered the straight electromagnetic orbit. Then 3 seconds later, it flew out of the straight electromagnetic orbit and rushed into the vast interstellar space.

“Manual intervention navigation…”

“Start adjusting the flight direction, the target is adjacent…”

“Start correcting the neighbor coordinates…”

21 minutes later, the Spark spacecraft completed the course adjustment. Its target coordinate system was not the position of the Proximity System at this time, but was determined by calculating the position of the Proximity System 210 years later, plus the error of the light speed information feedback at this time. Correct coordinate system.

If it flies according to the Proxima coordinate system at this time, the Fire spacecraft will definitely not be able to meet the Proxima system after 210 years.

“The heading coordinate system is determined and the acceleration mode begins…”

“The nuclear fusion power system is started, and the power generation power is 5%…”

The ultra-high-speed plasma thruster of the Spark Spaceship spit out a long light blue tail flame. Driven by the plasma, the Spark Spaceship’s speed became faster and faster.

At the same time, a huge umbrella-shaped membrane spread out in front of the Spark spacecraft. The radius of this umbrella-shaped membrane was about 1.5 kilometers.

The surface of the umbrella-shaped film is a special magnetic material that can absorb hydrogen atoms and helium atoms in interstellar space.

These adsorbed hydrogen and helium atoms will be used as nuclear fuel and working fluid by the spacecraft.

Of course, there are certain side effects in doing so. The most obvious side effect is that the huge umbrella-shaped film will produce weak resistance after colliding with the stardust particles.

Although this resistance is very subtle, over time, it will still seriously weaken the flight speed of the Fire Spaceship.

However, compared with the obtained hydrogen and helium atoms, the speed lost can still be compensated by secondary acceleration.

In addition, the detection system of the Fire Spacecraft is also turned on around the clock to fully monitor the wandering planets along the way.

On the one hand, it is to avoid car accidents.

On the other hand, it is so that when necessary, relatively large planets can be found on the way to serve as transfer stations and supply points.

In fact, there are many wandering planets in interstellar space.

Although most of the wandering planets are asteroids, wandering planets similar to the six-clawed giants actually exist, but they are relatively small in number and difficult to encounter.

Among the technical information on omnic civilization obtained by Homo Sapiens Company, there is technology on how to monitor dark stars.

Currently, according to the monitoring report of the Space Reconnaissance Department, there are not many wandering planets in the interstellar space between the solar system and the Proxima Centauri system.

One of the largest wandering planets is a dwarf planet with a radius of about 1,736 kilometers. This dwarf planet is 1.23 light-years away from the solar system.

In addition to this dwarf planet, there are 86 other asteroids with a radius greater than 100 kilometers.

As for asteroids with a radius of less than 100 kilometers, monitoring becomes very difficult as they get farther and farther away from the solar system.

The Homo sapiens company’s idea is to make full use of these large asteroids floating in interstellar space.

In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, after the first Fire spacecraft was launched, three more Fire spacecraft were launched to the Proxima system in less than two months.

The mission of these fire spacecraft is to serve as backup, and they are also responsible for setting up secret supply stations and monitoring stations on large asteroids along the way.

In fact, supply stations and monitoring stations are set up among the dark stars in these interstellar spaces.

On the one hand, it is to supply or repair the subsequent Spark spacecraft;

On the other hand, it is to monitor interstellar space and provide guarantee for the safety of the solar system.

Finally, there is the purpose of the Three Cunning Rabbits.

In fact, it involves another sub-plan of the Civilization Spark – the Dark Star Project.

As the Space Reconnaissance Department conducted a comprehensive and detailed investigation of the interstellar space around the solar system, a large number of asteroids hidden in the interstellar space were discovered.

If these asteroids floating in interstellar space are used as resource planets to mine resources, they are actually of little value to the solar system and Homo sapiens companies.

After all, long-distance transportation reduces the value of these asteroids, unless they are rare elements.

But if we use these asteroids as secret bases, then modify these asteroids, use nuclear fusion power systems and plasma thrusters to push some of the asteroids into more distant stars.

This can be used as a back-up for human civilization. If the solar system is destroyed one day, human civilization can make a comeback with the help of the secret bases in these dark stars.
