Chapter 132 Response

"...0.4 times the speed of light, too fast, even with controlled nuclear fusion technology, it cannot be achieved, because nuclear fusion can only use about 7% of the mass of matter at most!"

"Yes, according to our existing theory, nuclear fusion can only propel the spacecraft at a speed of one-tenth the speed of light, and no more than 15% at most!"

"But if they really reach such a speed... there must be more advanced energy, such as antimatter energy, or a more effective propulsion engine-curvature engine."

The monitoring observation room is always the most lively place on Noah, and a large number of scientists stay here all day and night, arguing and discussing. They want to find clues about this alien spacecraft. Any bit of information is crucial to humans.

"See it, I see it!" An astronomer suddenly shouted, he quickly tapped the keyboard, and a large number of images flashed on the computer screen.

In the astronomical photos taken in the last few minutes, an extremely blurred black spot finally appeared. If it had not been discovered by infrared rays, humans might have directly ignored it. This black spot is probably only a few pixels in size, and even the boundaries are blurred, but it does not hinder scientists' calculations.

A group of people immediately sat in front of their computers excitedly. They simulated and reasoned several photos from different angles through the simulation screen of the Noah's central computer. After calculating its shape, location, direction of movement, etc., they finally obtained several possible restoration pictures.

This is...

What a huge and magnificent space battleship!

It is an elliptical sphere with a diameter of about 150-200 kilometers. It is really too big. The light diameter is more than 10 times that of Noah, and the volume is more than 1,000 times!

It is very strange that the light has a strange distortion on the surface of this spacecraft, so that humans can't estimate its specific size at all.

"How is it?" Yu Yifeng also got the news and rushed over immediately. When he saw the simulation picture on the screen, he was stunned immediately. This size... This hugeness alone is enough to produce an oppressive feeling for humans. This is an existence that human technology cannot imagine.

This spaceship alone, if it lands on the earth, can cover the sky of 70 New York City! It is completely capable of exterminating humans within a day...

No, maybe just a few hours. It is impossible for humans to go to war with such a civilization. There is a probability of more than 90% that they will surrender directly, as long as these aliens do not carry out an extinction massacre of humans...

"Fuck!" Yu Yifeng cursed in his heart. Such a behemoth may really destroy a planet!

They did not know the size of the other party in advance. If they knew it was so abnormal, they might not implement any camouflage plan or intimidation plan. But the radio waves sent out and the water spilled out, all plans can only be carried out with gritted teeth...

Looking at the other scientists who were silent one by one, it seemed that their confidence was weakened a lot. Yu Yifeng couldn't help but say: "This should be the opponent's main ship. Only such a huge spacecraft has complete functions and can feed a large population..."

"Have you found anything else?"

An astronomer suddenly came back to his senses and pointed to a photo and said: "Look at this position, maybe there is really something wrong!"

Yu Yifeng squinted his eyes and took a closer look. This is an infrared light thermal image. There is a lot of red light on the right side of the photo, indicating that there is a lot of heat energy overflowing from this part. It is these overflowing thermal radiation that allowed humans to discover this alien spaceship!

What does this mean?

After receiving several radio waves, humans have not received any more. It is very likely that the other party has fixed this loophole. However, this large-scale thermal radiation has always existed, that is, it has not been repaired.

This is definitely an abnormal performance!

"The spacecraft may really be damaged!" This is Yu Yifeng's first intuition.

He thinks that what Dr. Rambo said may be correct. Why didn't the other party repair it? Lack of manpower, or... lack of resources! They hurried to the solar system just to repair their spacecraft!

In this way, the human disguise plan is still very likely to succeed! The other party's spacecraft is broken, is there still the ability to start a war?

He clenched his palms tightly, and the force was so strong that his nails were deeply embedded in the flesh. But he didn't pay any attention at all, because his whole mind had turned to the picture he was observing in front of him.

...

This period of time is really too tormenting.

People waited anxiously for another two days. It is now 10 o'clock in the evening, but all scientists are discussing tirelessly.

Now it has been more than sixteen days since the radio was launched. In ten hours, it will be the expected time, when people will see the reaction of the other party to the radio waves.

Should we open fire directly? Or...

If the other side uses the means of light speed attack, as long as people observe the attack screen, our side has been hit, and there is no time to react. (In fact, human telescopes can't see the details of the attack screen at all).

Excited, panic, uneasy...all kinds of emotions, everyone's eyes are red, some have not slept for several days, but still insist on seeing the first scene of the other side receiving the radio signal.

Of course, Yu Yifeng is one of them.

He pricked up his ears and heard Dr. Rambo's distant roar. Rambo seemed to always stand on the optimistic side: "What are you afraid of? I tell you, every interstellar civilization has such a large spaceship... When we really enter the interstellar, we can do it too!"

"What's the use of being big? Can they destroy Noah? I absolutely don't believe it!"

But it seems to be true. Noah is a god-like spaceship. It can be said to be extremely hard. Even if the opponent opens fire and the laser can hit it, he absolutely does not believe that Noah will lose a hair...

It's just that human facilities will be completely destroyed, and then it will be exposed... But since the war has already started, are you still afraid of being exposed?

In fact, what Rambo said makes sense. The development of science and technology is leapfrogging. Humans can barely imagine what technology will look like in twenty years, but it will be difficult to imagine it in fifty years... Maybe the opponent is only one or two hundred years more advanced than humans?

In this way, in the constant quarrels, people's moods are getting more and more nervous. Whether the universe is a dark forest, peace or war, will be revealed in a few hours...

In this case, who can not be nervous? Who can not be panic?

Until seven o'clock in the morning, breakfast food had been delivered to each person. At this time, no one was thinking about eating breakfast. They just swallowed a few mouthfuls and stared at the screen intently.

Time passed by...

"Ding, ding!" A countdown alarm suddenly rang. According to the calculation, the other party should have received the radio picture!

"Why don't they react? Did they fire? No, we don't seem to be hit!" A scientist shouted anxiously.

"Don't worry, you have to give them some reaction time."

Yu Yifeng also swallowed hard. In fact, he was also panicking.

"They seem to have slowed down?!" An astronomer suddenly pointed at the screen and said, he used trembling hands to dial the computer and calculated over and over again. "Not right... I calculated it wrong." He made mistakes several times and quickly rejected his own.

In fact, with such a short time, it is difficult to calculate the other party's speed change state with human measurement accuracy, especially when the speed is extremely high.

However, humans were not hit, and the other party seemed to have no reaction. What's going on?

One hour, two hours... Just when people were getting impatient, there was a "hiss..." sound, and the entire screen suddenly shook.

A radio expert screamed madly, this time he was really crazy and yelled loudly, "Radio waves! It's radio waves!"
