    Chen Xin was also sitting in front of the TV watching this operation. After all, it was a matter of life and death for all mankind. At this moment, all the media on Blue Star were reporting on this incident 24 hours a day.

    Although the meteorite is getting closer and closer to Blue Star, and various countries have issued disaster warnings, the meteorite is still approaching the lunar orbit, and Blue Star has not been substantially affected, so Chen Xin did not hide in the shelter he dug.  inside.

    And although the shelter is safe, there is no Internet or TV because it is buried deep underground. If Chen Xin wants to know about the rescue operation, he still has to stay at home and watch TV.

    As for other people in the city where Chen Xin is located, they have been evacuated one after another during this period and entered the shelters in batches that have been mostly renovated.

    If the operation goes well, they will leave the shelter after successfully intercepting the meteorite, but if the interception fails, everyone will spend the rest of their lives in the shelter.

    Chen Xin did not live in the urban area due to personal reasons. Although government staff had mobilized him to go to a shelter before, because he had already dug a shelter, Chen Xin stayed at home and did not go to the state-built shelter.  refuge.

    And although the country has done its best to renovate shelters and make shelters accessible to everyone as much as possible, because some shelters were not completed as scheduled and the shelters have limited capacity, in fact not all  Anyone can enter the shelter.

    According to Chen Xin’s prediction, the city he is in is not bad, because the population is not very large, and most people can still enter the shelter.

    But for the whole country, Chen Xin thinks that being able to get more than 80% of the population into shelters is already very remarkable.

    ——————————————————

    After completing the refueling, the spacecrafts of the Yan Kingdom and the Federation left the Tiangong Space Station and set off again to the International Space Station.

    They will first orbit the blue star, use the gravity of the blue star to complete the first stage of acceleration and fly to the moon, and then use the moon's gravity to perform the second stage of acceleration in the lunar orbit, so that when the meteorite arrives, the spacecraft can accelerate to a speed close to that of the meteorite.  Speed, so that you can accurately land on the meteorite.

    Looking at the three spacecraft captured by the space station camera that became smaller and smaller after leaving the space station, Chen Xin could not help but silently pray for the warriors on these three spacecraft.

    Now, the hope of all mankind is on them. If their actions fail, then mankind will face the global extinction of species caused by the meteorite that struck the Gulf of Mexico 65 million years ago.  .

    Some people may argue that the extinction of the dinosaurs cannot be confirmed to have been caused by a meteorite impact, but Chen Xin can say with certainty that if the meteorite heading towards the Blue Star really hit the Blue Star, 90% of the existing ones on the Blue Star would be  All the above species will be completely extinct, whether on land or in the ocean, it will be the same extinction catastrophe.

    As the last descendants of dinosaurs, birds may have escaped the last disaster, but this time they may not be so lucky. The fire storm that swept the world brought high temperatures and toxic gases, as well as the ensuing extreme cold.  Long nights will wipe out all birds flying in the sky, large creatures on the land surface, most plants, and all fish in shallow ocean areas.

    Only tenacious animals such as mice and cockroaches that are good at burrowing may escape this disaster, but whether they can survive the long and extremely cold nights when food is scarce is also unknown.

    As for marine life, there is no need to worry. Although the marine life ecology in shallow sea areas will suffer a devastating blow, the marine life living in the deep sea will not become extinct. Even some shallow sea marine life can survive the attack if they are lucky.  .

    As for humans, it all depends on luck.

    People who live in countries where social order has not collapsed at least have governments that organize evacuation. After escaping the initial disaster caused by the meteorite impact, there is still a high probability of surviving and passing on the fire to human civilization.

    But people living in countries where social order has collapsed do not have such good luck. If they stay away from the place where the meteorite hit and can find a strong basement and store enough food during the following period,  There is still a certain chance of survival.

    If not, they are likely to die painfully in the ensuing disaster within just a few days after the meteorite impact.

    Of course, if they were even less lucky and happened to be near the meteorite impact site, they might not even be able to survive.If you can't survive a day, you will die without pain.

    As for this neighborhood, it is a circle with a radius of at least one or two thousand kilometers.

    Because it takes a long time for the spacecraft to fly to the lunar orbit, although the TV station has been broadcasting live, Chen Xin has not been staring at the TV, but is making final preparations before entering the shelter.

    Although this is a matter of life and death for six billion people around the world, Chen Xin very much hopes that this operation will succeed, but he is not optimistic about this plan.

    The Yan Kingdom and the Federation plan to use nuclear bombs to explode the meteorite, and then use thrusters to push the meteorite away from the impact orbit. This plan sounds really good, and the feasibility is not low. Humanity's current technology can indeed do it regardless of the cost.  Yes, we are doing this now, but there are many uncertainties.

    For example, before landing on a meteorite, there was a debris flow around the meteorite, which prevented the spacecraft from landing or destroyed it. After landing, the meteorite was too hard to drill

    A meteorite is not a sphere with a uniform texture. The irregular shape and uneven texture may withstand the explosion of a nuclear bomb without being exploded, or it may be blown too wide and break into several pieces.

    If it had not exploded, the meteorite might be harder than expected, and its mass would also be much greater. In this case, the heavy spacecraft prepared by Yan Guo would probably not be able to push the meteorite, or the thrust would be insufficient and not fully  Change the trajectory of the meteorite.

    In this case, we can only hope that the Lucians can use all the nuclear bombs in the world to smash the meteorite.

    But in this case, the best result is that the world will suffer a huge wave of meteorites, causing huge losses to human society.

    And if it explodes and breaks into several pieces, that would be the worst situation.

    Because there is only one heavy-duty spacecraft prepared by Yanguo, it can only push one meteorite.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
