    Generally speaking, humans are lucky. This kind of asteroid is difficult to find at long distances.

    If Li Guang¡¯s team hadn¡¯t accidentally detected it, humans wouldn¡¯t even have a chance to defend themselves.

    The speed of the spacecraft equipped with high-energy ionization engines continues to increase.

    In the universe, theoretically, as long as there is enough energy and continuous acceleration, the maximum speed of conventional navigation, the speed of light, will be reached.

    But that requires an extremely large amount of energy as support, even infinity.

    You must know that accelerating two particles to the speed of light in a short period of time requires a huge amount of energy, let alone a spacecraft that weighs trillions of billions of times?

    ??At least in the foreseeable future of mankind, it is impossible to master such technology.

    The high-energy batteries equipped on the spacecraft are dismantled from aerospace fighters. Each spacecraft is equipped with at least four energy batteries from aerospace fighters.

    ¡°But to accelerate a huge spacecraft, the energy still has to be calculated on fingers.

    Soon, the fleet spacecraft ejected a light blue ion beam and left the space city military port.

    The fleet must first accelerate around Saturn and reach the second cosmic speed, which is the escape velocity of Saturn. It will use the gravitational slingshot effect of the last circle to fly away from Saturn and shoot away into the vast universe.

    "The first circle around the moon and moon, the speed is 8 kilometers per second."

    after an hour

    "The second circle around the moon and moon, the speed is 11.2 kilometers per second, reaching the escape velocity, the power is fully turned on, and it enters the gravitational slingshot acceleration stage!"

    "Speed ??11.8 kilometers per second"

    "Speed ??12.6 kilometers per second"

    "Speed ??12.9 kilometers per second"

    Arriving at the gravity slingshot acceleration terminal, goodbye, planet!

    The fleet drew a beautiful arc somewhere in the orbit of the Earth Moon Star and plunged into space.

    "good luck!"

    This is the same blessing sent by everyone in the world to the Star Fleet of the Moyang Empire.

    The fleet leaving the orbit of the Earth Moon Star is still accelerating.

    In the universe, aircraft cannot continue to accelerate with the same energy output.

    Because the theory of relativity does not allow it.

    The faster an object flies, the higher its mass, and the greater the energy required to accelerate an object with higher mass.

    This is the famous light speed barrier.

    Therefore, the goal of the Moyang Empire's interstellar fleet is to accelerate to slightly exceed the speed of the third universe, use the orbital angle, and finally remain relatively stationary with the asteroid to complete the landing.

    The energy carried by the spacecraft is only enough to accelerate itself to the third cosmic speed, and there is no excess energy to slow down.

    So if you miss the asteroid, you will wander among the stars forever.

    Only by successfully landing on the asteroid, assembling a nuclear fusion reactor, and replenishing energy while pushing the asteroid, can we have a chance to return to the Moyang Empire alive.

    This is a road with no turning back. If you don¡¯t succeed, you will be benevolent!

    "The speed is 15.1 kilometers per second, and the distance from Tuyue is 130,000 kilometers."

    The Space City Command Center always pays attention to the situation of the fleet, and then provides feedback to Li Yunpeng and other high-ranking officials in the empire.

    Li Yunpeng, on the other hand, did not share the current situation with other countries because it was not necessary. He also had to be on guard against the two aliens from Nanmen, in case they were the initiators of this incident. If the news was leaked, it would be tantamount to endangering the enemy.

    "The speed is 16.7 kilometers per second! Reaching the third cosmic speed! 290,000 kilometers away from Saturn and Moon!"

    The feedback from the fleet is very encouraging. This is the highest speed achieved by human aircraft so far.

    If it keeps flying outside the solar system, it will eventually leave the familiar solar system, and perhaps reach a new galaxy after hundreds of millions of years.

    "Keep the speed and start the orbit change process!"

    "yes!"

    At this time, the position of the fleet is equivalent to the distance between the moon and the moon and the moon, but the directions are different and there is no encounter.

    Next, the fleet must adjust its direction while maintaining speed, and finally complete the turn in a huge arc orbit, maintain a similar course with an angle to the asteroid, and complete the landing.

    The whole process will last 10 days.

    During this period, all interstellar workers only need to complete their respective tasks accurately and then wait quietly.

      Time flies, ten days later.

    "The fleet is 14.42 million kilometers away from Saturn, traveling at a speed of 17 kilometers per second. It has completed its turn, and the radar has not yet detected the asteroid!"

    This message received by the Moyang Empire was sent by the Star Fleet more than ten minutes ago.

    With a distance of tens of millions of kilometers, the communication delay has exceeded 10 minutes.

    Perhaps in people¡¯s daily lives, 10 minutes is a very short time.

    But from the perspective of interstellar navigation, especially orbital docking, even a millisecond error can lead to catastrophe.

    Therefore, at this time, the imperial command center can no longer help much, and the fleet can only adapt to the situation.

    Li Wu kept walking around the hall, "It stands to reason that the fleet's current position is already within 200,000 kilometers of the asteroid. How come the radar hasn't discovered it yet?"

    Li Guang consoled him: "Don't be impatient, 200,000 kilometers is still too far. Wait a moment, the orbit calculation is correct, and we will definitely find it!"

    Although science is very rigorous, everyone here is extremely nervous.

    "Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the unexpected. What happens more than ten million kilometers away is simply not under their control."

    Li Yunpeng never said a word. He knew that nothing he said now would change the outcome.

    Now the Moyang Empire fleet will meet the asteroid in 3.3 hours. Life and death will depend on the moment of encounter.

    It was already noon, but no one had touched the cold breakfast on the table in the hall.

    Throughout the morning, no one left their position.

    ??????? Not a mouthful of rice, not a mouthful of water.

    Even, no one has been to the toilet.

    Just to be able to hear the news that the fleet radar has discovered an asteroid as soon as possible.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
