Escape The Solar System With Millennium Technology

Chapter 274 – 140 years later

In the dazzling light, everyone present witnessed the destruction of their home planet with their own eyes.

There are teardrops floating in everyone’s eyes, and I don’t know if they shed tears because they witnessed the destruction of the earth, or because they were pierced by the strong light from the neutron star.

No one wants to say, no one wants to know.

After the earth was completely engulfed by the neutron star, everyone left with sad eyes and blushing eyes.

Although he knew that even in his dreams, he had seen the scene of the destruction of the earth, but Wang Lei, who had witnessed all of this with his own eyes, couldn’t help but shed sad tears for the earth.

The next day, Wang Lei attended the funeral of four old people, and all four old people could survive in grief.

However, Wang Lei felt that these four old people had survived so long to witness the destruction of the earth with their own eyes.

The funeral was very simple, but it was also very grand. Everyone came. The four people were pushed out of the warehouse side by side wearing their favorite clothes during their lifetime, and then a maintenance robot slowly pushed them away from the hatch. It floated smoothly in the cold and empty space.

Everyone present looked at the four, and the companions who left first were silent, as if praying for them, or saying to wait for a while.

On the third day, several elderly people passed away one after another, and the atmosphere in the entire immigrant spacecraft seemed lifeless.

On the fourth day, a few more old people died. Several of them committed suicide. The atmosphere inside the spacecraft became even more dull. Those who were still alive looked at their dead companions, and they were no longer the same as before. Sad, as if looking away, it seemed that the ancient well was not waved.

Seeing that something was not quite right, Wang Lei awakened the next batch of navigators in advance and awakened four psychologists and a psychologist.

Wang Lei hopes to let the extra people dilute the depressive atmosphere in the spacecraft, and let the four psychologists help enlighten those elderly people who are a little wrong.

The fifth situation shows that Wang Lei is absolutely right. On the fifth day, only one person left the world silently in his sleep.

A few days later, after seeing that the situation had stabilized, Wang Lei entered the dormant cabin again.

People who enter cryo-sleep have no concept of time. It feels like a momentary thing, and 100 years will pass as soon as you close your eyes.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

After a century of time, there is no vicissitudes of life in the outside world. The environment in front of me is still the same as a hundred years ago, except that some places are a little bit old.

Although it is not used, it can also be seen that the traces of time left on its body.

This time Fang Xiaoyu also regained consciousness with Wang Lei. It was the same as a hundred years ago. After a day of adjustment, various functions of the body were basically restored.

The rest of the time was the same as before, but there were some subtle changes, such as Fang Xiaoyu’s company when visiting the spacecraft in the afternoon.

After 100 years, all the old people who failed to enter hibernation have all left, and now only the navigators who are still young are left.

Because I wanted to observe the destruction of the earth last time, I woke up this time, and the spacecraft was still empty and there were no people.

When Fang Xiaoyu learned that Wang Lei was awake alone, he asked Wang Yuxin to adjust his time to wake up and wake up together with Wang Lei.

The reason why Wang Lei chose to wake up when there was no one was that he didn’t want to be disturbed and had a quiet environment to restore and study his body. However, Wang Lei was very grateful for Fang Xiaoyu’s company.

Now 140 years have passed since the sailing, and there is still 64% of the distance to the Centaur galaxy. The nuclear fusion reactor of the immigrant spacecraft has also ceased operation, and the immigrant spacecraft is now sliding without power.

The Phoenix advance probe sent back hundreds of reports, and in the next month, Wang Lei read them all.

The previous probe of Phoenix has completed the detection of the entire Alpha star, and has established hundreds of resource collection bases and more than a dozen sub-bases all over the planet.

These more than a dozen bases and resource collection bases will begin construction of cities and various facilities when the immigrant spacecraft is 100 years away from Alpha Star.

Before that, they will go to sleep, maintain their basic operations, and wait for the time to come.

The reason why we have to wait 100 years before we start building cities is because if we start building cities now, after hundreds of years of wind and rain, when Wang Lei and the others arrive, they will have already become a huge ruin. , So a few years before Wang Lei’s arrival, when he was building a city, he could move in directly after Wang Lei arrived at Alpha Star.

The documents sent back in the next few documents are the reports of the previous probes of the Phoenix, after the construction of the new probe spacecraft, on the other planets in the Centaur.

There are two planets in the habitable zone, plus Alpha star. The other planet has not been discovered before, so Wang Lei called this terrestrial planet Beta star.

The climatic environment on this planet is worse than that on Alpha, because its orbit around the sun is an ellipse and the distance from the sun is farther than Alpha, so the seasonal changes on Beta are much greater than that on Alpha. .

At the coldest time, even at the equator, the temperature is only minus 20 degrees, and at the hottest time, the temperature at the equator will be as high as 50 degrees Celsius.

Such a drastic temperature difference has caused a lot of abnormal climates on Beta Star. The most abnormal climate is typhoons. In the two years of observation by the spacecraft, 243 typhoons broke out on Beta Star. The lowest typhoon also has 10 levels, while the most intense typhoon is as high as 23 levels.

The eye of the typhoon in the middle of the typhoon alone is as big as the three provinces of Northeast China.

Typhoons often occur when the temperature changes drastically, such as when spring enters summer and summer enters winter. In these months, typhoons will continue to form on the beta star ocean and then hit the land.

Another point is that the ocean area of ​​beta star is larger than that of the earth, reaching 82%.

Therefore, the second natural disaster on Beta star is a tsunami. Tsunamis generally occur before and after typhoons land on land. Strong wind pressure will blow the waves to a height of 10 to 20 meters.

Fortunately, waves blown by the wind will only hit coastal areas, and will not hit inland areas like typhoons.

For Beta Star, a planet with a harsh environment, Wang Lei does not intend to build a colony on it. Although with Wang Lei’s technology, it is not impossible to build a safe colony on Beta Star, but it’s not necessary. After the quiet and peaceful terrestrial planets, there is no need for the development of beta stars.
