TWE0344 A forced choice
Outside the training base of Xiaguo National Space Center.
Liu Peiqiang looked at the data displayed on the tablet and cooperated with Fan Fangsi's inquiry. He felt confused. The Wandering Earth Plan was really unable to succeed?
"If the Wandering Earth Plan cannot be successful, why should the coalition government formulate the Wandering Earth Plan?" Liu Peiqiang asked directly.
Before Fan Fangsi answered, Liu Peiqiang continued, "Since you can think of any problem, can the coalition government not think of it? Are you smarter than experts all over the world?"
Fan Fangsi responded calmly, "The coalition government knows."
"Hmm?" Liu Peiqiang thought about how Fan Fangsi would explain, and also thought about Fan Fangsi to argue, but the only thing he had never thought about Fan Fangsi admits directly.
"As you said, I am not the only smart person in the world. The coalition government has brought together experts from all over the world. They naturally know that the plan to wander the earth will inevitably fail." Fan Fangsi explained.
Liu Peiqiang took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. "Since the coalition government also knows that the Wandering Earth plan will inevitably fail, why gather the forces of the whole world to promote the implementation of the Wandering Earth plan?"
Fan Fangsi pointed to the sun in the sky, "Do you know what happened to it?"
Liu Peiqiang frowned. Isn’t this a well-known thing?
"The sun is about to enter old age. According to experts' speculation, it will enter the red giant stage in about a hundred years, thereby expanding rapidly and swallowing the earth into it." Fan Fangsi described the situation.
"According to this situation, if the Wandering Earth Plan is not activated, we will definitely die when we wait for the end of the earth." Fan Fangsi continued, "Although the Wandering Earth Plan will definitely lose, once the Wandering Earth Plan is opened, we will win at least a thousand years."
"This period of time is extremely valuable. We can use this period to develop more advanced technologies, such as aerospace technology. If we can develop spacecraft, we can collect meteorites and asteroids from outer space during our journey, thereby providing fuel for planetary engines." Fan Fangsi explained.
"Although the result of the Wandering Earth Plan is very bad, according to the current situation, it is doomed to fail, but it can give us enough time to delay, which is the ultimate goal of the coalition government." Fan Fangsi analyzed the purpose of the coalition government.
Liu Peiqiang pondered for a moment before responding, "If it is to delay time, the coalition government has a better choice!"
"For example?" Fan Fangsi asked.
Liu Peiqiang responded, "When the sun transforms into a red giant, it will indeed expand its volume, but after we install a planetary engine on the earth, we can completely move the earth's orbit outward, so that the earth will still revolve around the sun transformed into a red giant."
Liu Peiqiang continued, "Through this method, we can delay the time for a longer time and obtain a more stable living environment, thus providing better conditions for scientific research."
At first glance, the plan proposed by Liu Peiqiang does seem to make some sense.
The biggest threat to the earth when the sun decays into a red giant at the extreme speed is to annex the earth's orbit after the volume is expanded, but moving the earth's orbit outward seems to be able to solve the problem?
"Borrow your previous words and reply to you, you are not the only smart person in the world. The experts of the coalition government can think of 100% of the questions you can think of." Fan Fangsi responded.
Liu Peiqiang was silent. He still felt that the suggestions he made seemed to be fine.
Fan Fangsi didn't keep it a secret, he explained, "In fact, it is indeed as you said. If you just move the earth's orbit outward, it is far lower than the Wandering Earth plan in terms of technical difficulty, and you can also obtain a relatively stable development space."
"However, the problem is!" Fan Fangsi continued, "Our sun has undergone a mutant. Under normal circumstances, it will take five billion years to age and enter the life cycle of the red giant. However, it is about to enter the life cycle of the red giant in about a hundred years. In this case, how can we judge whether it is stable after entering the stage of the red giant?"
According to the normal red giant observed in astronomy, it has a stable period of "relatively short time", which is about millions of years relative to the life cycle of a star's billions of years.
For humans, millions of years are absolutely enough.
If the sun decays into a red giant, it can be stable for millions of years...
No!
Even if the stability period is only 10,000 years, Fan Fangsi believes that the coalition government is willing to stay. At worst, it is to change the orbit of the earth, so as to keep the earth away from the red giants, and then find a way to survive. It is not difficult.
However, the current sun has completed about 5 billion years of life in just about a hundred years. Such a change has made the coalition government worry that the sun will also experience similar changes during the red giant stage.
Once such a similar change occurs during the red giant stage, the red giant formed by the sun will explode directly, and will the earth be gone?
The supernova explosion is a top-ranked terrifying event in the universe!
If a supernova explosion occurs when a red giant formed by the sun and the earth does not have enough distance, then the earth will not be tougher than a piece of white paper in the supernova explosion, and will be directly torn into powder by the supernova explosion.
The coalition government dares not gamble. After all, this kind of gambling pushes the fate of all mankind to the gambling table. Once you lose, all mankind will perish, and the race of human beings on earth will completely disappear.
In order to avoid such a thing, the coalition government would rather pay a huge price to implement the Wandering Earth Plan. Even if the Wandering Earth Plan is a residual plan, the coalition government is still promoting this plan.
Everything is for the continuation of the human race, so we have to make a choice.
Liu Peiqiang felt a sudden realization, but he had a new question, "Since you know these things, what's your purpose for me?"
"If I say there is no purpose, do you believe it?" Fan Fangsi asked.
Liu Peiqiang obviously didn't believe it.
Fan Fangsi chuckled and said, "I really have no purpose. Okay, Mr. Liu Peiqiang, thank you for chatting with me. I will heal your wife, goodbye."
After saying that, Fan Fangsi's figure suddenly disappeared.
