Chapter 499 The world is shocked (11,000 words today)

"The Statue of Liberty was destroyed by a meteorite!"

As soon as these words came out, the entire NASA space agency suddenly became quiet.

The Statue of Liberty was destroyed by a meteorite? !

Are you kidding me? Do you think this is a movie?

Let’s not talk about the ability of meteorites to break through the atmosphere. Let’s just talk about how small the probability of a meteorite hitting the Statue of Liberty is at least one in tens of trillions.

They wouldn't believe such a thing could happen.

So someone immediately said to the man: "Callis, what are you talking about? How is this possible? Are you watching some movie?"

"That's it, how could such a low probability happen? Let's continue to find out where the Dragon spacecraft flew. Oh my god, this is the first time in history that a spacecraft has been hit by space junk in space. In the event of destruction, where did that piece of space junk come from? According to previous detections, there can be no space junk in that orbit!"

As people turned their attention to the missing Dragon spacecraft, the staff member who saw the entire process on his mobile phone immediately became dissatisfied.

So he operated on his computer and opened the relevant video. In fact, the Internet is so developed today that this amazing news has spread everywhere.

Then, he projected the content on his screen onto the largest screen, and shouted: "Look, you guys! What I said is true! Now it has started to spread on the Internet!"

Everyone immediately couldn't help but look up at the big screen.

What was shown on the screen was an outdoor live broadcast, and in the live broadcast, the Statue of Liberty, which was originally standing 46 meters high, was shockingly missing two-thirds of its body, and the remaining Debris was still falling down from that third of the body.

At this time, the anchor was already crazy and yelling.

"Gift crab!"

"Hou! Li! Crab!"

"OK, OK, I don't know what to express anymore, but to be honest, I believe no one will not be shocked when they see this scene..."

"Jesus-Christ, can you imagine this? Seeing a meteorite fall from the sky and hit it right in the middle of our Statue of Liberty."

"My God, I even... almost thought I was watching a movie, our Statue of Liberty actually fell down!"

"This is incredible!"

"Fortunately, the Statue of Liberty is no longer allowed to be visited during this period, otherwise God knows how many people would have died!"

"I bought it..."

In the NASA space agency, the staff present were stunned when they heard the anchor's incoherent words.

Looking at the footage in the live broadcast, less than half of the goddess statue remained. Their national monument was simply giving them a visual impact.

This kind of movie-level scene actually happened?

Among the people present, Eisenberg was also here. He was also responsible for searching for the missing Dragon spacecraft before, but he did not expect that such a thing would happen again.

At this moment, his cell phone suddenly rang.

The caller was none other than the president.

He could now completely guess why the president called him, but he had no choice but to not answer the call.

So after the call was connected, the president's angry curses came from the other side.

"Eisenberg Conti! What's going on with you NASA? You can't detect such a big meteorite at all, can you?"

"And it fell directly into our city. Our Statue of Liberty is gone!"

"What did you do?"

"Fortunately, there are no casualties for the time being, otherwise, you would have just waited for Congress to hold you accountable!"

Hearing the voice coming from the other side, Eisenberg's face suddenly showed a helpless expression.

How are they going to monitor this kind of thing?

Whether they can detect meteorites or not is entirely a matter of luck for them. As for actively discovering meteorites, that is even more nonsense. It is almost impossible.

As for the meteorite hitting the city now, he had no choice. Even if they detected it, could they still stop it?

That's a meteorite!

None of their human weapons can intercept meteorites, so what if they are detected?

However, he did not have time to explain to the president. He just said: "Mr. President, I think our top priority is to send people to salvage as soon as possible. Since things have happened, and God bless no one was injured or killed, that is the best." It worked out.”

"So I think it's better for us to find this meteorite now."

In the presidential office, the furious president snorted coldly and said, "You don't need to say anything about this kind of thing! Just take care of it yourself!"

Then he hung up the phone with a bang, and then looked at the TV next to him again.

Now that the media has learned the news, they have flown helicopters over to conduct live broadcasts.

Looking at the collapsed goddess statue, he could guarantee that this was definitely an unreasonable disaster.

For this country of immigrants, if something like this happens, God knows how many superstitious people will think that this is a punishment from God. By then, I don’t know how much his approval rating will drop.

The most important thing is that this incident is also a wake-up call for them, that is, they humans are actually facing threats from outer space all the time.

Afterwards, they can use this incident to think about their missing Dragon spacecraft. This space accident has long been publicized by major media.

A spacecraft was hit by a piece of space junk in the universe. Doesn't this mean that the space junk has reached a level that can threaten the spacecraft?

These two things combined almost equaled that their universe was no longer safe for them.

God knows how many comments will come out against their Mars plan.

The opposition parties, in particular, will definitely do everything they can to discredit their Mars plan.

Thinking of this, the president felt a headache. He really didn't know how these two things happened to collide.

It almost feels like being calculated.

Then he turned to the Secretary of State beside him and said, "Have they salvaged it? How is the situation?"

The Secretary of State replied: "The salvage team has arrived at the scene and is starting to salvage."

The president turned to look at the situation on the TV and saw large and small salvage boats appearing next to the incomplete Statue of Liberty. There were also many relevant personnel standing on the embankment next to it, cleaning up the scene.

He took a deep breath, and even felt a little scared in his heart. Fortunately, this thing hit the Statue of Liberty, and it was New York. If it were their place, his White House, then he would probably have a chance to be ranked among the best in the world. The unlucky leader of the country.

Being directly killed by a meteorite, what could be more unlucky than this?

Of course, maybe it has something to do with his crow's mouth?

After all, he had said before that he was willing to trade the Statue of Liberty for the Tianchao, but now it's better. The Tianchao was not replaced, but a meteorite was replaced.

Finally, he sighed, rubbed his heart that was aching slightly, and then said, "Okay, call me after you salvage it. I have to go and rest for a while."

A few hours ago, he had been seeing a doctor for angina pectoris for a long time, but when he came back, he heard the news again. He couldn't bear it anymore.

The Secretary of State nodded and said, "Yes!"

Then he left here and let the president rest.

…

The salvage work will probably take some time, and everyone is waiting to see what the meteorite will be finally salvaged. People want to know what this meteorite looks like, and that it can actually do such a thing.

Of course, for Americans, this is a shocking thing, but for other countries around the world, it is extremely happy.

Just kidding, the famous scene in the disaster movie was staged in reality. Unfortunately, it was not the Golden Gate Bridge that was hit, but the Statue of Liberty.

Of course, it can also be called a once-in-a-century event.

911 was not as spectacular as this.

It is possible that the 911 incident was directed and acted by them. After all, the real bosses in the Twin Towers were not upstairs when the planes hit the building and survived.

Then the Americans used this reason to expand military bases to more places around the world.

And now that a meteorite has hit the earth, is it possible that they still have the ability to use this reason to expand their military base into space?

Therefore, other countries are gloating over the misfortune, and netizens from all over the world are discussing this matter enthusiastically on the Internet.

Especially for some French netizens, they are even more happy.

"Hahaha, I actually got knocked down. This meteorite did a great job!" For this dishonest and white-eyed country, they should be punished like this. Think about it, it was us who helped them become independent from the British. Even the Statue of Liberty was given to them by us. Now it’s better. , this thing finally collapsed.』

"Well done, we should show these traitors that if we can't deal with them, God will deal with them. I suggest calling this meteorite the rod of God."

"good! It’s hard not to support it, it’s called the Rod of God! 』

"Agree!" 』

In this way, foreign netizens started to gloat in the wave of schadenfreude.

And the vast majority of American netizens can't bear it. After all, in the hearts of the vast majority of American people, the Statue of Liberty is the number one national cultural symbol in their hearts. Now, it's gone. Of course they Some can't accept it.

Ever since, an international war of words has started.

Of course, for domestic netizens, they are basically just watching a show.

After all, if you want to participate in this international scolding war, you need to climb over the wall, so most people can only watch the show.

Of course, even watching a play is extremely interesting. After all, what else is more interesting than a big play like this?

Not long ago I saw the news that an American cargo spacecraft was hit and exploded by space junk in the universe, and then I heard that the Statue of Liberty was also directly knocked down.

This kind of big melon simply makes the listener happy and the listener happy.

Just like that, when people all over the world were attracted by this incident, the mastermind behind all these incidents and the instigator, Lin Xiao, looked at the news on the Internet with a smile, and also felt a lot of schadenfreude in his heart. .

Yes, whether it was the collision of space debris with the Dragon spacecraft or the meteorite hitting the Statue of Liberty, they were all directed by him.

After learning that the other party wanted to use such despicable means to intercept the Tian Nian, and even planned to blow up the Tian Nian completely in the end, he asked Xiaomi to start the simulation.

What is simulated is this entire process.

Relying on Xiaomi's ability and powerful computing power, they simulated the entire process directly to the molecular level.

That is to say, starting from the explosion, how the three suicide satellites will be exploded and the direction in which the debris will rush are all in the process of simulation.

Naturally, this includes allowing debris to hit the path of the cargo-carrying Dragon spacecraft.

The most critical part of the entire planning process lies in the beginning.

That is to say, the angle at which these three hydrogen pellets were launched, as well as the moment of explosion, must be extremely precise.

For this reason, Xiaomi took control of the three suicide satellites at the last moment.

Then it fine-tuned the positions of the three suicide satellites so that their positions could reach the optimal position.

That's why the people who were originally responsible for operating these three suicide satellites felt that there was a sense of delay in the final operation, or a sense of loss of control, precisely because they were no longer operating it at that time.

Then it was time to detonate the three hydrogen pellets.

This timing is even more critical.

Even if the final explosion occurs 0.001 millisecond earlier or later, there is a high probability that it will not achieve the current effect.

In the universe, a slight difference can make a difference of a thousand miles, so it must be so accurate that there is almost no error.

And this step is also very difficult to achieve, because at this time, the laser behind the Tiannian engine needs to be able to hit the three flying hydrogen pellets.

That's why it was necessary at the last moment to let the Hall thruster on the Tiannian push the Tiannian to deflect at such a slight angle.

Then, as the laser is emitted, an explosion of hydrogen pellets is triggered.

Relying on the powerful power of nuclear fusion, or what can be called an ultra-micro-yield hydrogen bomb, one explosion is enough to destroy the three suicide satellites. Otherwise, it would not be possible to propel the huge Tiannian to take off and Moved forward.

Therefore, the explosion of the three hydrogen pellets easily destroyed the three suicide satellites, and the huge impact directly caused the speed of their fragments to almost reach an extreme. Therefore, the one flying towards a higher orbit The fragments quickly caught up with the Dragon spacecraft, and then easily hit its engine part, triggering an explosion.

As a result, the spacecraft carrying supplies to the International Space Station disappeared.

Originally, Lin Xiao had no intention of taking away the Statue of Liberty. He had previously decided to blow up the Dragon spacecraft and fly directly into the universe.

As a result, President Naihe later changed his mind and planned to blow up the Tiannian directly. He asked Xiaomi to change his previous plan and chose to directly let the "Dragon" spacecraft crash into the earth, and incidentally destroy the Statue of Liberty. Like being smashed.

In order to simulate this result, he even approved Xiaomi to directly use 10% of the computing power of Qiankun No. 1 to let it perform the calculations.

So it can be said that this time, it is the ultimate use of Xiaomi's intelligent life ability.

This process, even if all the computers in the world combined, cannot reach this level.

After all, this is an entire super complex chaotic system.

Now it seems that the result is very satisfactory.

"Well done, Xiaomi."
