Chapter 102 Acting and Deception
readx;
Time is still passing quietly, and the sudden addition of a star in the sky did not attract much attention. But Zhao Huasheng was different. When the star suddenly appeared, staring at the starry sky on the recliner in the courtyard every night became a must-do thing Zhao Huasheng did.
The star continued to increase its brightness in Zhao Huasheng's eyes. It had been ten days since the star first appeared. During these ten days, its brightness increased from fifth to fourth. This means that its assembly is coming to an end and is about to be completed.
Generally speaking, if it is a comet, when the brightness reaches this level, its comet tail can probably be seen with the naked eye. However, the comet tail of a real comet is brighter by the matter erupting from the comet nucleus, which reflects the sun's rays. Of course, this false comet created by humans does not have such ability. It cannot extend a spectacular comet. Therefore, it can only disguise as an asteroid, but cannot disguise as a comet. The comet deterrent plan should also be renamed the asteroid deterrent plan.
When people change the orbit of Comet Arthur, they mainly rely on the power of the eruption of comet nuclear material to achieve their goals. There is no such rich gas material on the asteroid, so people cannot use this to change the orbit of the asteroid. However, if they directly claim that humans rely on engines with high thrust to change the orbit of the asteroid, it seems too false - because it is obvious that human civilization does not have such powerful technical capabilities.
Then how to reconcile the contradiction between the two is a very difficult thing. However, Zhao Huasheng was not worried about this. Zhao Huasheng knew that the head of state and the people in the scientific research department could definitely find a reasonable explanation.
After the brightness of this false asteroid increased to fourth level, its brightness basically stabilized and no longer increased rapidly, but began to slowly increase its brightness at a very slow speed. Zhao Huasheng knew that this process of slowly increasing brightness was actually simulating the process of the asteroid's natural movement and approaching the sun along orbit.
This false asteroid needs to deceive not only plasma life forms, but also most of the humans on Earth are deceived. Even some scientists. The reason is very simple. If too many people know that this asteroid is fake, then it will face great difficulties in keeping it confidential. It is difficult to avoid these things being detected by plasma life forms by chance. In order to ensure that everything is fooled by most people on Earth. Therefore, it must be made realistic and as realistic as possible. Not only that, in order to prevent people from discovering that this asteroid is not increased by the luminosity because it is close to the sun, but by the increase in the luminosity caused by its own reasons, the human government has strictly prohibited many deep space telescope observation behaviors during this period.
As long as those big guys are not used by them, people will not be able to discover the flaws of this asteroid, and most people will be deceived. Because using small telescopes will not be able to see its flaws.
Half a month after the appearance of this asteroid, Zhao Huasheng finally saw related reports about this asteroid from the TV media. In the TV reports, the asteroid obtained the name of Apart, which was called Apart Asteroid.
"The Il Deep Space Survey Telescope recently discovered a new asteroid. The asteroid number is 2026tv1 and is officially named Apart. Scientists have discovered that the asteroid is about 1.1 km in diameter and has an irregular shape overall. The total mass is about 1.7 billion tons, the surface is extremely smooth and has an extremely high albedo. It is speculated that its surface may be composed of water ice..."
This information disappeared from the TV screen in just over a dozen seconds. Apart from some basic data, the TV station did not broadcast any other information about this asteroid. This news broadcast is also very ordinary, without any abnormal performance, just like it will appear at any time and will not receive attention from ordinary news.
But Zhao Huasheng knows what this means. If Zhao Huasheng is not wrong, this news broadcast should be the first time it has entered people's vision. After this broadcast, there will be a second, third, or even a hundredth, and a thousand reports. The frequency of broadcasting about this asteroid will follow the normal process and slowly increase. It will eventually be valued by all mankind. The reason for choosing this is also because it is realistic. After all, an asteroid that has just been discovered immediately received extremely high attention from human civilization, which is very unreasonable.
Zhao Huasheng also knew that the human government would probably not specifically convey relevant information about this asteroid to itself. If that happens, the traces of artificial carving will be too heavy. The way to pass on relevant information to Zhao Huasheng through continuous strengthening of news broadcasts, and also to plasma living organisms is more logical and less likely to arouse suspicion. At the same time, the human government will not worry about the possibility that Zhao Huasheng will not receive relevant information. Because under extremely high-intensity information bombardment, as long as Zhao Huasheng is still watching TV and Zhao Huasheng is still connected to the Internet, then Zhao Huasheng will definitely receive the news.
The facts were not beyond Zhao Huasheng's expectations. On the next day, there were more reports about this asteroid. Zhao Huasheng saw on TV that scientists measured the orbit parameters of the asteroid, and concluded that it would pass by the earth at an extremely close distance - this distance is 170,000 kilometers. After being affected by the gravitational disturbance of the earth, it will change its orbit and pass by the sun at a distance that is extremely close to the sun. It is estimated that its perihelion will be less than one million kilometers by then...
This asteroid is slowly attracting people's attention. Especially after a scientist proposed that "we may use this asteroid as a weapon to deter the sun civilization, so as to threaten the sun civilization not to retaliate against us." After the TV station reported it, the attention of this asteroid instantly increased to the highest among people.
The TV station further increased its tracking and reporting on this planet. Major observatories and major astronomical telescopes have launched observations of this asteroid. More data about this asteroid have been mined. People even drew detailed three-dimensional maps of this asteroid, and detailed analysis of its material composition, star structure, formation date, origin and other information.
Of course, all of this information is fake, and it is a play performed by several of the highest-ranking scientists and heads of state in the scientific research department. This drama has deceived most people in human society. Zhao Huasheng saw that discussions about this asteroid began to appear overwhelmingly on the Internet. On the Voice of Humanity website, discussions about this asteroid almost covered the entire discussion area.
Therefore, it is impossible for Zhao Huasheng to not be able to touch these things. When Zhao Huasheng comes into contact with these things, it means that plasma life forms have come into contact with these things. During this period of time, the plasma life forms fell into silence, and the communication with Zhao Huasheng began to decrease. So Zhao Huasheng knew that it was probably in trouble, and it was also anxiously waiting for the subsequent development of things.
This carefully directed drama is continuing to develop. The scientific research department held a meeting specifically for this. During the meeting, scientists strictly discussed and demonstrated the possibility of changing the orbit of this asteroid, and used it as a deterrent to the sun civilization from the aspects of logistics support, technical equipment, resource consumption, impact consequences, etc., and finally came to the conclusion that "we are fully capable of changing the orbit of this asteroid and then letting it hit the sun."
This meeting was broadcast live to every corner of the earth, including the TV set facing Zhao Huasheng. Zhao Huasheng sat on the sofa and watched the live broadcast quietly. Zhao Huasheng knew that plasma life must have watched the live broadcast intact and heard the conclusions drawn by scientists in the meeting.
"First of all, the closest distance between it and the earth is only 170,000 kilometers, which is much less than the four million kilometers of Comet Arthur, which means we can consume less resources to transport more materials to it."
"Secondly, its original orbit is so close to the sun, which means we only need to make extremely slight orbital changes for it, and we can achieve our goals."
"Again, the surface of this asteroid contains a lot of water resources, and the surface is smooth and the geological structure is stable, which means that the engine we transports to it can obtain a large amount of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen as energy through the process of ionizing water. We do not need to transport too much energy to it; and the electricity required for ionizing water can be obtained through solar generators... And because its geological structure is stable, the engine can work efficiently for a long time and push it to change its orbit... So, our conclusion is that it is entirely possible to change its orbit and finally let it hit the sun, and we can do this."
The scientist finished this passage with a solemn expression and sat down. A long-lasting applause erupted from the venue. A voice gradually gathered, and passed through the screen to Zhao Huasheng, and also came to the mind of plasma living organisms: "Let those damn star people know that if you dare to retaliate against the earth, we will dare to knock this thing into the sun!"
