Chapter 442 Comet hits Jupiter

"Latest news: [Unknown in a thousand years]!"

"When the Yan Kingdom astronomer Ke Yu and astronomer Dai Lin observed the starry sky together, they accidentally discovered several comets more than 600 million kilometers away from the earth."

"After more sophisticated astronomical telescope observations, the Yan Kingdom's Bauhinia Observatory confirmed that the comets discovered by the two were comet groups and were orbiting Jupiter."

"At the same time, based on the analysis of the comet's orbit, it was found that the comet group would all crash into the surface of Jupiter in about six months because it was affected by Jupiter's gravity."

The most important thing about this news is the last paragraph.

Comet cluster is about to hit the surface of Jupiter?!

call--!

The news has just been announced and immediately attracted high attention from the global astronomy community!

Just two hours later, major astronomers and astronomers around the world came forward to confirm the reliability of the news, soon!

The news that the comet group was about to hit Jupiter was like a prairie fire that burned the entire network, directly seizing the hot search headlines of major media.

The entire academia community was completely infuriated, and everyone was stormy with this news!

You must know.

The impact of the eight planets in the solar system is a cosmic event.

It is a cosmic event that has never been observed or observed in human history!

Once you can observe the scene when a comet hits Jupiter, it will inevitably be of great help to study the collision of stars, the origin of the planet, and even the extinction of dinosaurs hundreds of millions of years ago on Earth!

The most important thing is.

This is a very good opportunity to see the power of the solar system's universe that I had seen a rare encounter two years ago!

This is how many opportunities are dreamt of by experts in studying the universe and studying astronomical research?!

soon.

The news that Phoenix Group successfully launched the "Biomicro Robot Space Station" has been completely suppressed, and the global network is discussing the comet hitting Jupiter.

...

On the other side.

As the world's top aerospace department, North America's NASA Space Administration also attaches great importance to this matter and immediately set up a special working group.

Their job is to use space telescopes and detectors to observe the impact images on the day the comet hit Jupiter, so as to obtain a large amount of first-hand information.

but.

At the first work meeting held after the working group was formed, everyone walked into the conference room and suddenly found that the atmosphere was a bit solemn.

Director William sat in the middle of the conference room, with a stern face, and looked at everyone walking in with an extremely serious look.

Everyone's heart skipped a beat and couldn't help but feel a creepy feeling.

But everyone knows that this is because a few days ago, when Manager Zhang of Phoenix Group publicly mocked NASA's moon landing plan at a press conference, Director William was called to scold him by Washington executives. These days after he came back, Director William was called to him.

His face didn't feel better.

All the staff walked into the conference room quietly, not daring to breathe, and everyone was waiting for Director William to break the silence.

finally.

Seeing everyone sitting quietly at the conference table, William then glanced at everyone, and finally turned his eyes to a young white engineer in front of him, and said slowly:

"Enrique, let's talk about the latest work progress first."

Enrique, who was named, was the leader of the working group.

He uttered carefully, then opened the information he carried with him and said:

"Chief William, because the impact point of the comet and Jupiter collided is exactly in the darkness relative to the back of the earth, we cannot directly observe the impact on the earth."

"The only ones that can observe the impact images are the 'space telescope' in space and the detectors flying in space."

“We meet the criteria include our strongest space telescope – the James Webb Space Telescope, and our Juno Jupiter rover that is flying around Jupiter.”

"Of course, according to our experience, the best shot of the picture should be the 'Web Space Telescope', so we are now starting to issue a mission to the 'Web Space Telescope', and the 'Web Space Telescope' will shift the center of gravity of the shooting half a month before the impact.

Come to Jupiter.”

"And we are also coordinating the calculation of the orbit with the detector's department, striving to hit the detector in the best observational orbit that day."

Hearing that Enrique had arranged the work details, Director William nodded with a stern face and said lightly:

"Okay, I get it."

At this moment, Enrique, who had just reported very fluently, suddenly became a little hesitant when he spoke.

"Director William, in addition to work deployment, there is one thing you need to decide at the moment."

"Um?"

William's eyes fell back on Enrique with a "swish" and looked at him, and asked in a low voice:

"What else?"

“That’s how it is.”

"After the comet was about to hit Jupiter, we received a lot of emails from institutions and universities."

"Because this comet collision was in the dark place on the back of the earth, the observatory on the earth could not observe the impact, so their hope was that they could provide relevant impact pictures, explosion pictures and data when they fell, and share them with them for doing

Academic research.”

"Not only our universities and institutions in North America, but many foreign institutions and space agencies have made similar requests, including larger space agencies such as South Korea and Neon..."

"So, you still need to make a decision on this matter, how can we reply to them?"

As soon as he finished speaking, William's eyes suddenly lit up.

The originally stern face instantly showed a hint of flushed excitement.

He hurriedly looked at Enrique, and did not directly answer the question, but suddenly asked:

"Enrique, what's the situation in Yanguo? Tell me!"

Enrique was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly realized.

"Director, the situation in Yan Country is basically the same as other countries."

"They don't have space telescopes in space, and they don't have Jupiter probes, so..."

"It is basically impossible for them to observe the scene of a comet hitting Jupiter on the first time this time. Even if there are many observation points on the ground, it is basically impossible for them to observe on the observatory on the earth."

After hearing this, William's stern face melted.

After a moment, he couldn't help laughing twice, then looked at Enrique and said:

"Enrique, you just said that there are institutions and universities that hope we can provide pictures and data on the first scene during the collision. Naturally, there is no problem with our domestic universities and institutions!"

"However, we must carefully select institutions and universities in other countries. We must be institutions and universities in friendly countries, and we must also sign confidentiality agreements with us!"

"It is necessary to ensure that these pictures are not published or provided to other institutions for scientific research without our permission!"

"If we cannot do it as we ask, then we refuse to provide all information."

The words fell.

Not to mention Enrique was stunned for a moment, everyone present was stunned.

Although Director William did not explain why he did this, everyone present knew very well who he was impersonating.

but.

Many people couldn't help but wonder.

Although the comet hit Jupiter is indeed a rare encounter in a thousand years, it is just a cosmic celestial event. To put it farther and bigger, such an event cannot have any impact on current technology.

Such events provide scientists with the origin of the universe and the origin of the planet, which brings development to human humanistic science...

This is definitely a useful thing to promote the development of human civilization.

Even though Manager Zhang of Phoenix Group previously mocked NASA at a press conference, it was really annoying.

But will Director William use this to suppress Yan Kingdom?

Enrique also disagreed with Director William's approach. After hesitating for a moment, he said hesitantly:

"Director, the comet hit Jupiter is just an ordinary impact event, its confidentiality level..."

but.

Before Enrique could finish his words, Director William frowned.

He looked at Enrique impatiently, and Enrique swallowed up his words before he finished speaking.

"Okay, Director."

"After the meeting, I will reply to contact our institutions and universities and sign a confidentiality agreement."

William nodded, his eyes finally less serious.
