Technology's opening live broadcast to build rockets

"What's wrong with Academician Du? I heard that the leader of the bureau personally called him, but he refused to come out!" Everyone in the space bureau was talking about it.

"Is he not satisfied with the Nobel Prize?"

"You're kidding! That's the Nobel Prize. If you can win it once in your life, you'll be lucky!"

"I also don't understand why he quit the Mars mission. The Mars mission has just begun."

"He must have his own ideas. Let's do our own thing!" Xu Lianqiu passed by holding the folder and whispered.

As the discoverer of Martian microorganisms, she is now the deputy leader of the Mars mission team and holds an important position.

"Du Xingyu, he must be hiding something very important in his heart." Although Xu Lianqiu didn't know what Du Xingyu was thinking, her intuition told her that the things that made Du Xingyu so cautious were definitely not trivial.

On the Internet, there are also some media saying some baseless things, but few people pay attention to it.

Du Xingyu’s social account has not been updated for several months.

Netizens sent letters to ask:

" @Earth Observation, why don't you update it?"

"Congratulations on winning the Nobel Prize. Where is your lord?"

"Didn't the author return to Earth?"

"Tell me where the address is? I want to send the blade!!!"

"His Bilibili account has also stopped updating. I don't know what he is doing? Is he performing some secret mission and can't speak?"

Du Xingyu turned a deaf ear to all kinds of interference from the outside world. Every day, he was observing and analyzing data.

A month later, at the astronomical observatory, Du Xingyu was using a computer to compare observation data from the Tiangong Space Telescope.

"Eh? There's a problem!" Du Xingyu discovered that there was a tiny error in the data from the precision pointing sensor.

This error is almost negligible, but Du Xingyu believes that it is definitely not caused by machine error.

He immediately conducted data analysis. The Precision Pointing Sensor (FGS) collected starlight sixty times per second. In a collection last night, the data fluctuated for 0.3 seconds. The sunlight reflected by Neptune changed in a very short period of time. Darkened, then returned to normal!

You must know that these starlights come from the sunlight reflected by Neptune, and it is impossible to suddenly dim and recover. Then there is only one possibility: a certain celestial body just flies in front of the observation point, blocking the light from Neptune! This is similar to the occultation phenomenon, except this time it is not the light of the star that is obscured, but the faint light of Neptune.

Du Xingyu's observation directions are all in the orbit of Neptune and the nearby Kuiper Belt. If such a situation occurs, it is very likely that an asteroid temporarily obscures part of Neptune during its flight.

"Did you find it?" Du Xingyu's spirit perked up. Although he did not directly observe the asteroid, he already had traces of it. By continuing to observe and compare, he could find its flight orbit.

Du Xingyu not only observed by himself, but also contacted the Haleakala Observatory and asked them to observe together.

A week later, Du Xingyu finally confirmed his suspicion. There is indeed a celestial body flying at high speed, passing through Neptune and heading towards the inner part of the solar system.

Its orbital target is very close to the Earth's orbit. Based on calculations from each day's observation data, it can be roughly estimated that this celestial body should be an asteroid with a diameter of about 30 kilometers, mostly composed of rocks, and a flying speed of 20,000 Five thousand kilometers per hour.

"The same is true for our calculations!" Professor Beth from the Haleakala Observatory said in horror. "Now we can only calculate its existence through FGS data, and we cannot directly observe it."

Just thinking about it made Professor Beth feel as cold as if she had fallen into hell! An asteroid with a diameter of 30 kilometers is flying towards the earth at a speed of 25,000 kilometers.

Based on Neptune's average speed of 4.496 billion kilometers from the Earth, it will arrive near the Earth in twenty years and five months, and then collide with the Earth under the pull of the Earth's gravity!

This will be a catastrophic disaster that wiped out the dinosaurs more than 65 million years ago. Who can resist it?

"God is going to punish mankind!" Professor Beth suddenly collapsed on the ground, her face pale.

"Professor, calm down. This is just our calculation. There may be a slight deviation. Its orbit may not necessarily intersect with the Earth's orbit." Du Xingyu comforted her, but the effect was limited.

Du Xingyu said: "Professor Beth, maybe you can contact the senior officials of your country and see how they deal with it."

"Yes, you must tell them about this! Don't waste time!" Beth stood up hard and began to sort out the data and report her findings.

Du Xingyu didn't know exactly what happened.

He only knew that when he asked Professor Beth the next day, Beth's eyes were dull and she kept whispering: "They are so stupid! The disaster of annihilation has arrived. No one believes that we will go to hell together!" God has given up on us!”

"That's true!" Du Xingyu sighed, he had guessed something. Their conclusions were only derived from astronomical observations, and the big shots were skeptical at first.

Secondly, even if such a thing really happens, some people may choose to hide it, and then make it public when there is really no way to cover it up. They are not stupid, just because they are too "smart" and plot against each other for their own benefit.

But by then, it was too late!

Or these people will build their own shelters, spaceships, simply give up the struggle, enjoy themselves... come up with various ways.

"If human beings don't unite, all measures will be in vain!" Du Xingyu knows this very well, "I must announce this news to the whole world, even if it will cause panic and anxiety... But this is a disaster of human extinction level, and there is no time. Let these people continue to argue, hide or run away!”

In the face of this kind of disaster affecting human civilization, individual people, cities, even countries, and continents are all very small!

Three days later, Du Xingyu could no longer contact Professor Beth. The contact person at Haleakala Observatory told him that Professor Beth was mentally unstable and had been sent for treatment.

As for the previous observation results, no one mentioned it again. This made Du Xingyu understand that if the breeze before the storm is too weak, it will be ignored by people. Only a thunderbolt from the clear sky can wake up the world!

Because the asteroid has already flown past Neptune, the precise pointing sensor cannot detect any abnormalities in the light at this time. It is as if it is invisible! Even if someone wanted to look for it, there wouldn't be any clues.

Du Xingyu didn't tell anyone anymore. He knew that no one would believe the news now. He still needs proof!

"According to the analysis of the asteroid's flight speed, orbit, and the light-sensing capabilities of the space telescope, it will take at least thirty days to fly before it can be initially observed. The coordinates should be near this point... By then, the reflection of sunlight will cause The space telescope directly saw its image." Du Xingyu calculated the time and place when the asteroid revealed its true face.

"Twenty-seven days later, it's December 10th, the day of the Nobel Prize Ceremony." Du Xingyu stood up and looked up at the sky: "It's time to announce this news to the world!"

Thanks for the rewards of I am Jingren, Kongchengmeng, Uniqlo’s Sorrow, and Five Elements’ Shortage of Money.
