Chapter 119: Make a Prompt Decision
The science officer's words caused the atmosphere in the bridge to turn from freezing point to cold again, and everyone felt a chill rushing from the soles of their feet to their brains.
Is this the end of humanity?
If it is a spacecraft power problem, then humans still have many ways and solutions to solve it, such as throwing away the excess mass.
Abandon supplies, abandon the Callisto ship, abandon the Callisto ship, abandon the Callisto ship. It is not impossible to even dismantle a certain section of the Hope and discard it, such as those containing heavy industrial equipment or some suspension cabins that are temporarily unused. .
As long as it can reduce the quality of the Hope, you can throw it away.
But now the problem is not the propeller power, but the fragile human body.
Scientists have already calculated that if the five fusion thrusters are operating at full power, it will take only 10.6 hours to push the Hope from relative standstill to 15% of the speed of light.
This means that five nuclear fusion thrusters can instantly provide an acceleration of 90 G to the large residential spacecraft called Hope. The Hope is a residential spacecraft with a considerable mass, so this power can be described as surging.
In other words, if you just put two fusion thrusters on a battleship, it may provide greater acceleration. After all, the mass of the battleship is not as large as the Hope.
And what is the acceleration of Nozomi now?
6G.
This is already the limit of ordinary humans. Beyond this acceleration, ordinary people's human bodies will suffer varying degrees of damage.
Of course, people with special training can withstand higher accelerations, but most of the people on the Hope are ordinary people.
What should I do?
The sudden change made the atmosphere on the bridge of the Hope become extremely depressing. Those who can work on the bridge basically have high scientific literacy, and they all thought of this.
But so what if you think about it?
How to solve it is the key.
But this is a problem of human body. What can be done?
Yue Yuan also had a bitter look on his face. Although he had inhaled the alien's red gas, his lifespan and anti-cancer factor had only been increased. In essence, he was still a human being and had not become a superman.
It is true that as a soldier, he has the habit of exercising. It is true that his physical fitness is stronger than that of ordinary people, but it is only at the human level.
Under super G acceleration, what should turn into meatloaf becomes meatloaf.
After not being silent for long, Yue Yuan said in a deep voice: "Based on the current speed of the Hope, how much acceleration do we have to endure before the Hope can escape the interception of those silver mists?"
He knew that the longer he delayed, the closer the silver mist would come. Correspondingly, the greater the acceleration humans would have to endure if they wanted to run away, and the less likely they would survive.
So he couldn't remain silent any longer.
In the face of mankind's own problems, Yue Yuan has no other way. Not only him, but all scientists are at a loss.
After all, no one can develop an acceleration buffer or a body-strengthening potion method within an hour, and then install it on the Hope or everyone on the Hope.
From research to reality, something has to go through a process.
So now Yue Yuan can only pray that this limit is not too big.
"It's 15 G." The science officer confirmed the calculation result with a snap, and then replied with a slightly uncontrollable trembling voice.
Hearing this value, Yue Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and secretly said that he was glad that it was not 30 G or 60 or 70 G. It was not too big and there was still hope. He didn't hesitate at all, and immediately bit down and almost roared: "The engine crew immediately prepared to speed up again, and the correspondent immediately notified the entire crew of the Hope that the situation in the Silver Mist has changed. Let everyone be prepared to resist high-G shocks. Hurry up." , we don’t have time.”
We must act immediately, otherwise if we delay it any longer, 15 G will turn into 16 G.
As for how everyone should be prepared to withstand the impact? Of course, you can only be mentally prepared because the Hope is now accelerating, and the entire crew has already fixed themselves on the cushioned seats.
The notification now is just to prepare everyone mentally.
And tell them the reason why the Hope has to carry out this acceleration that can be called life and death.
"'Light of the Milky Way' executes my order and immediately executes the warship decoupling procedure, suspending and detaching both the Callisto and Callisto ships." Yue Yuan made a prompt decision and immediately called out the 'Light of the Milky Way'.
"Yue Shuai, what are you talking about? The problem with the Hope is not quality, right?" Manyuemei next to her immediately asked in confusion. She felt that it was impossible for Yue Yuan not to know what she knew.
But this order was equivalent to losing the Callisto and Callisto ships, which really didn't confuse her.
Yue Yuan continued to raise his head and speak, as if he was continuing to give orders to the 'Light of the Tianhe', and also as if he was answering Manyuemei: "After the two ships left the Hope, they immediately turned on the automatic cruise mode. I ordered the 'Light of the Tianhe' to immediately Copy two sub-intelligent programs to control the Callisto and Callisto ships, and set the goal: to interfere with the Silver Mist consciousness using any algorithm that can calculate the results, slow down their pursuit speed, and self-destruct the program authorization number. :5jkhg996a48g72154, Quantum Confidential Information Code: Execute immediately!”
"'Light of the Milky Way' understands that the program has been executed and the suspension decoupling action is counting down, 10, 9, 8, 7."
After saying a long series of words, Yue Yuan opened his mouth to explain: "15 G is too big, no way. I hope the two warships can buy us some time."
The Europa V and Europa VI are the same type of warships as the Europa IV. Due to the sparse population, they were originally used as backup ships, but the equipment on them was equipped according to the Europa IV standard.
So the two warships have positron cannons, red and blue laser weapons, and hydrogen bombs. Not only that, because they are not used temporarily, the space of the two warships is also used as a temporary warehouse, where many kinds of metal materials are placed, but now these materials will be thrown away directly.
If the two warships do not meet expectations, even the Europa IV can be sent out.
Now keep it as a backup.
However, considering that the Hope really accelerates, people may experience various conditions in high G conditions, and dizziness is possible. Considering that he may not be able to give orders at that time, Yue Yuan once again gave the "Light of the Milky Way" a backup program instruction.
If there is any discord, the "Light of the Milky Way" will immediately execute the backup program instruction. Yue Yuan did not hesitate and immediately entered the corresponding authorization code into the system.
I really didn't expect that in the end, such an important command would have to rely on artificial intelligence.
In fact, not only the mission to intercept the Silver Mist, but also a series of adjustments after the Hope was accelerated at high G, all had to be completed by the "Light of the Sky River".
Because by that time, Yue Yuan didn't know how many people in the bridge or in the Hope could stay awake.
