Chapter 151 Kinetic Energy

Raymond Anthony did not answer, but his posture and eyes had already indicated that Doolittle had heard it correctly. Raymond Anthony did say that he wanted to kill Starry Sky. △¢

Although Doolittle is the captain of Hades, the problem is that Raymond Anthony is the real master of Hades, and he has the highest authority of Hades. In his brief shock, Doolittle did not ask why he did this, because this question is very stupid. With Raymond Anthony's authority and identity, such a question is no longer necessary. Doolittle just needs to answer truthfully.

“It’s hard….”

Doolittle thought for a long time under Raymond Anthony's gaze, and finally shook his head and replied.

"It's hard? How difficult can it be?" Raymond Anthony did not question or get angry as he imagined. On the contrary, he still asked back as if he was discussing the most ordinary thing with him.

"It's very difficult." Doolittle said frankly: "Mr. Anthony, although Hades has defensive weapons and some offensive weapons, you need to know that at the distance between us and Starry Sky, including the speed of two spacecraft, and the acceleration reaction of the controllable thermonuclear fusion engine, it is basically impossible to kill Starry Sky in space."

"Tell me specifically." Raymond Anthony calmly signaled to Doolittle to be more specific.

Dulite told Raymond Anthony that if the weapon of the spacecraft is to cause damage to the Starry Sky, several prerequisites are needed. First, the distance between the two must meet the weapon launch range requirements. Second, unless the Starry Sky is still in space, it will be almost impossible to fly at a flight speed equivalent to the fourth universe speed, even if it launches weapons on its predetermined flight orbit during a flight of more than 120 kilometers per second. From two points, it is almost impossible to strike a high-speed spacecraft in space.

"Where is a laser weapon? Don't we have high-performance pulse lasers? Is it not possible?" Raymond Anthony asked after thinking about it.

"It is feasible in theory, but it is actually useless." This involves physics. Doolittle specifically explained to Raymond Anthony the key issue of the damage caused by laser weapons. Although the speed of light is the maximum speed in theory, you only need to calculate the position of the Starry Sky and the forward orbit and speed of the Starry Sky to launch lasers from Hades, but the problem is just a theory. High-performance pulsed lasers are not universal weapons. They can only form power at a certain distance. Once this distance is too far, the laser reaching the target is almost no different from ordinary beams, and the structure of the Starry Sky will not play any role.

"Laser weapons still have great limitations. Judging from the laser performance equipped by Hades, its most effective distance is only 5 kilometers, and once it exceeds this distance, its effectiveness will be greatly reduced. More importantly, the destructive power of lasers in space is extremely low, and a ball of space dust can cause laser kinetic energy to fail. In other words, from a theoretical perspective, laser weapons are not even as good as a bullet shot from space."

Hearing this explanation, Raymond Anthony was a little surprised. He even thought that Doolittle was talking nonsense. It was not until Doolittle told him some theories about physics and space in a simple way that Raymond Anthony understood a little that Doolittle was not lying to himself, it was indeed in space. What is called laser, including nuclear bombs, etc., is indeed not as effective as a high-speed bullet.

The problem of laser has been explained before. There are two main types of damage caused by nuclear bomb explosions. One is nuclear storms and the other is the instantaneous high temperature. This destructiveness is obvious to the earth. However, in space, in vacuum, nuclear storms are not as strong as in too air. The instantaneous fission high temperature is also limited, and a large amount of energy will quickly scatter in space. Judging from these situations, nuclear weapons can only strike space objects at fixed-points, and have little effect on high-speed motion and spacecraft that can also avoid advances.

On the contrary, a material object structured with matter can cause damage to the target. Of course, it is impossible to shoot a bullet in space. However, it can be done if it is to shoot a material object. Moreover, according to the acceleration theory of object, it is almost a famous formula proposed by the great physicist Einstein in the special theory of relativity: m=m/((1-(v/c)^2)^0.5), and another famous formula by Einstein: e=mc2 can be concluded that when an object's speed reaches a certain level, the mass change and collision energy conversion caused will give the target huge destructiveness. The most representative one is the mass extinction of asteroids that hit the earth tens of millions of years ago. Therefore, from this point of view, this kinetic energy weapon is actually the one that has a real attack effect in space.

Doolittle finally told Raymond Anthony that if he really ordered an attack on Starry Sky, Doolittle would really have no way to guarantee success, and even this success rate was almost slim. And once the attack unfolded, Starry Sky would definitely react. If this matter was learned by the Russian government on Earth, then...

"I understand. It seems that it is impossible to kill Starry Sky in space..." Raymond Anthony nodded slightly, and he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

Although the journey of Hades to Pluto has been smooth so far, no one wants to drag a tail behind him, let alone the tail is still a Russian. It is precisely because of this that Raymond Anthony had the idea of ​​killing Starry Sky in space. Who would have thought that after listening to Doolittle's explanation, he realized that his idea was completely unrealistic.

"Actually, Mr. Anthony, I don't think the Russians will last for too long." Doolittle comforted Raymond Anthony at this time, and he told Raymond Anthony that compared with their Hades, it is difficult for Starry Sky, which does not have artificial gravity to last for a long time, not to mention that the other party's controllable thermonuclear fusion engine has already had problems. In this case, it is very risky if Starry Sky continues to sail. If he is the captain of Starry Sky, he will definitely give a return order.

"Haha, if this is the case, it will save a lot of trouble." Raymond Anthony said with a smile. Although Doolittle said this possibility, Raymond Anthony was a little disapproving because he really knew the style of the Russians too much.

Indeed, when Raymond Anthony and Doolittle were discussing the issue of Stars, a fierce debate was underway inside Stars, about 70,000 kilometers away from Hades. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
