Chapter 22: Death Is the Worst
When these words were finished, everyone howled in despair. Even the dumbest people understood what Yu Yifeng meant...six months...everyone can only live for six months!
If the earth is gone, will the moon be gone too? Then, where can humans go? Some people began to cry loudly, and some people simply fainted. After so many days of hard work and so much effort, they just showed a little dawn, just had a little hope, but it was immediately extinguished... This is a devastating blow to everyone! Even the strongest people can't bear it at this time.
Where is the hope? How to leave the moon? Can we rely on the Victory with a load capacity of 500 tons? Don't joke!
Precisely because these people are elites, they understand the extremely high difficulty of building a spacecraft.
If the difficulty of building an aircraft carrier is 1, then the difficulty of landing on the moon is 100. After all, so many countries have aircraft carriers, but only a few have the technology to land on the moon.
Today, the most advanced spacecraft "Victory" integrates a large number of advanced technologies from all over the world, and its manufacturing difficulty is about 1000.
So, what about spaceships that can really travel between stars? The manufacturing difficulty of a spaceship that can support the survival of 50,000 people is at least 100,000, or even 1 million! Whether it is the engine, material or power, no human technology is up to standard... This is not just an order of magnitude, but several orders of magnitude. Impossible, impossible!
God, do you really want to make all human beings extinct? !
Yu Yifeng frowned tightly. He had also experienced this kind of despair like a tide. However, he still overestimated the tolerance of these elite humans. Emotions can be contagious. When more and more people fall into despair, everyone falls into collapse... This is a big collapse after hope is shattered.
Is it really the end of humanity? No, never! The only one who can really give up humanity is oneself!
"Quiet! Be quiet!" He patted the table. Seeing that no one listened to him, he became ruthless and kicked it hard with his foot.
"Bang!" The whole table was kicked over!
"Be quiet!"
At this moment, everyone stared at him blankly. This was an instinctive reaction after falling into despair. No matter how high their IQ was, they could not think normally now.
"Why are you crying? Can crying solve the problem!" Yu Yifeng roared angrily, "Has the moon been destroyed? Or have we humans become extinct? Six months! We still have six months! You should be glad that we discovered this disaster early!"
"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of death? If you die, you will die. You have lived six months longer than others! What are you afraid of?! Isn't it just death? Do you want to spend the last six months in despair and pessimism, doing nothing, or fight like a warrior until your last breath?"
"We must resist fate! Even if the road ahead is long, even if it is a cliff, we will never sit and wait for death, and never let fate strangle our throats!"
"Find a way! We must find a way! We must find a way! What are you afraid of? At most, you will die!" Yu Yifeng almost roared out.
People were stunned. Humans now have almost nothing. They only have one life left. What are they afraid of? What are they afraid of? It's just death!
During this period, he has always been gentle and humble. Now he finally shows the iron style of a soldier! "Resist fate!" This is a powerful slogan. Many people have a feeling of common hatred and hatred. Since God is so unfair to humans, then resist! Fight! Even if you fail, it's just death!
Let's die. Since everyone is dying together, what's there to be afraid of?
When I think about it, a raging fire burns in my heart.
It turns out that anger is stronger than despair. Some people blushed and slapped the table hard, some people were silent, just wiped their tears, and silently verified the formula given by Yu Yifeng, and some people clenched their fists and lowered their heads, not knowing what they were thinking.
After a long time, Yu Yifeng saw that everyone had calmed down, and continued to harden his heart and said, "Now, the moon is no longer our refuge. If we want to survive, we must escape from the moon! But everyone knows that with our productivity and technical level, there is no way to build a spaceship that can cross the stars."
"So the only hope is that alien spaceship. It is big enough and strong enough to accommodate all 50,000 of us. The only drawback is that it has no engine. To start it, we must design and produce the spaceship engine within six months!"
"If it succeeds, it will be the best. If it fails... Even if there is a magnitude 13 earthquake or a collision between the moon and the earth, the alien spaceship may not be destroyed, and we may be able to survive in it for a while."
"But this is not a good way out. Without external supplies and a planet to lean on, how long can we stay in it? Ten years, twenty years?"
"So, we have to find a way!" Yu Yifeng punched down fiercely, and a dent was smashed into the hard iron table. "We need a miracle, and we must create a miracle before we can survive!"
Everyone fell silent. Everyone had seen that alien spaceship. It was really huge. Let's not talk about the twisted space inside. The diameter of the outside alone was 15 kilometers. What does this mean? It was almost twice the height of the world's highest peak, Mount Everest, and 32 times the height of the Oriental Pearl Tower!
What kind of propulsion force would be needed to allow a spaceship as big as a county town and as high as two mountains to ascend?
All scientists were numb with despair, and their confidence that had just been ignited began to dim again.
The current technological limit of mankind is the "Victory" spaceship. The entire spaceship has a load capacity of 500 tons, and the upper limit of its rocket propulsion is 5,000 tons, with a speed of 20 kilometers per second. This can only be produced with a complete industrial chain.
Finally, everyone was silent for a long time, and it was the chief physicist Felix who stood up. He thought quietly for a while, and then said:
"Dear colleagues, let me say a few words here. This alien spaceship is indeed the last refuge for mankind as Mr. Yu Yifeng said. But it is too big. Even if it is made of very thin materials, the total mass may exceed our tolerance."
"But this is not the most important thing... The space inside the spaceship is distorted, and there is gravity inside. Everyone knows that gravity is caused by mass. From this, it can be inferred that there is at least a billion tons of mass source under the spaceship to generate such a strong gravity!"
"Billions of tons! I am not pouring cold water on you, it is really..." Felix said at the end and could no longer speak.
The faces of several scientists around him all changed. Billions of tons of mass... Imagine, a mountain is only 10 billion tons, and 100 billion tons is equivalent to 10 million mountains!
Ten million mountains, this is no longer a question of whether it can be tolerated or not... It is simply impossible!
Yu Yifeng was the same. He sighed deeply, his eyes dimmed. Human power is limited. If he really couldn't think of any solution, he could only defend this spaceship. This was the result he least wanted...
