Chapter 208 – Antimatter bullet
“Then how are we going to mislead them?” Chen Hong asked, it is a fact that their technology is not as good as the other party.
“Using antimatter weapons!” Du Xingyu said, “Thinking about it in another way, if the enemy finds that we can make and use antimatter, it means that we may have built an antimatter engine, or even a warship of curvature.”
“In our base camp, the South Gate 2 star system, there may be more powerful space weapons. The enemy has to make more tactical arrangements if they want to attack us.”
“Moreover, we can set up a’forward military base’ to block the enemy’s attack and create time for us.”
Du Xingyu opened the starry sky map, which is a coordinate system of the Milky Way made based on the positioning of pulsars and used to locate the cosmic space.
Pulsars, also known as waves, are a type of neutron star. They are stars that periodically emit pulse signals. Most of them have a diameter of about 20 kilometers and spin extremely fast.
Triangulation can be achieved with the radio radiation and X-ray radiation of three pulsars, which is a common method used by humans in the universe to find their own position.
“Look.” Du Xingyu marked a point on the map, “The nearest water drop vehicle appeared in the Rutan 726-8 star system, about ten light-years away.”
“It will take more than three years for the enemy’s water drop aircraft to reach the South Gate 2 star system from the Rutan 726-8 star system. We launched the deep-space military base we built to the interrupted location and deployed anti-matter weapons to block the water drop aircraft.”
“The deep space base hasn’t been built yet, there is only one empty shell.” Yang Shaolin said, “You mean to use it directly to deploy suspects?”
“It also has this function. If the enemy does not destroy it, we can also build it into a real deep space base.”
“What about anti-matter weapons?” Lu Xing asked.
This is their most concern. Without anti-matter weapons, everything is just empty talk.
“Large-scale anti-matter weapons cannot be manufactured at present, but small anti-matter bullets should be launched soon.” Du Xingyu said.
“Okay, then we will implement it according to this plan.” They began to prepare.
The deep space military base outside the South Gate II star system began to fly along the Rutan 726-8 star system. The Alliance sent a large number of exploration satellites and unmanned warships to deploy in the deep space military base.
And Du Xingyu simulated the first anti-matter weapon on a science and technology simulator.
For the manufacture and storage of antimatter, his research is still limited, and he has not been able to manufacture antimatter reactors.
But if he just made a stable container to transport antimatter, he could still do that.
“Inject one hundred thousand energy points and start simulating antimatter bullets.”
In the science and technology simulator, Du Xingyu is creating a “bullet” whose launch principle is similar to other space kinetic energy weapons.
It’s just that this bullet uses a magnetic field to confine a small amount of antimatter, which can be annihilated with the positive matter.
“How to construct a small and stable magnetic confinement field?”
“Moreover, the bullet cannot explode when it hits the target, otherwise the antimatter in the bullet will directly annihilate the shell of the bullet. The bullet should be equipped with a miniature sensing instrument, which automatically turns on before touching the target, and uses the magnetic field to launch the antimatter. !”
The water drop aircraft is made of materials with strong forces to form a compact metal nuclear structure. Once a part of it has an annihilation reaction with antimatter, the whole structure will collapse directly!
“Start launching simulation!” Du Xingyu launched the antimatter bullet, but in the simulated war, the bullet was subjected to electromagnetic interference when passing through the energy shield, and the magnetic field fluctuated, causing the antimatter to contact the bullet shell and annihilated directly.
That is to say, this antimatter bullet has destroyed itself!
This result made Du Xingyu dumbfounded. The shell of the antimatter bullet must exist. It is used not only to construct a magnetic field manufacturing device, but also to isolate the positive matter in the vacuum to prevent the antimatter from disappearing due to annihilation.
Compared with antimatter, the so-called vacuum of mankind is actually full of positive particles everywhere!(Read more @ wuxiax.com)
Especially in the space battlefield, positive particles radiated by various rays and energy sources can instantly annihilate these small parts of antimatter.
“Modify the magnetic field structure, and add a layer of stable magnetic field outside the antimatter magnetic confinement container!” Du Xingyu redesigned the structure of the antimatter bullet.
A few days later.
“Successful simulation!” This time, Du Xingyu’s simulated antimatter bullet successfully annihilated a piece of material with strong force.
“Antimatter bullets can not only penetrate strong materials, but also easily penetrate energy shields!” Du Xingyu imagined, “If I can make more antimatter, even antimatter missiles, antimatter cannons! Then even if the enemy is a star Class-level annihilation warships also have no resistance!”
“It can treat the energy shield as nothing! Even the strength of the energy shield of the Zerg Mother Emperor of the previous world is useless in front of the antimatter cannon!”
“This is the annihilation weapon!” Du Xingyu now understands a little bit, why the enemy did not directly attack the South Gate 2 star system.
If humans have enough anti-matter weapons to blindly attack humans, their warships of curvature will not be able to withstand it!
Du Xingyu sent the design information of the antimatter bullet to the military academy of the alliance so that they could immediately start manufacturing this antimatter bullet.
The shell of antimatter bullets is easy to build, and the most difficult thing is to make antimatter!
For this reason, the Ring Planet Particle Collider has been colliding, both for experimentation and to collect antimatter.
More than half a year later, tens of thousands of antimatter bullets were sent to the deep space base.
The deep space base is still flying out of the South Gate II star system, sublight warships are constantly transporting supplies, and space robots are also stepping up to build a deep space base.
According to assumptions, this deep-space base should be able to have warships and an arsenal of space weapons, while being able to accommodate millions of people.
Due to the enemy’s offensive, humans had to launch this uncompleted deep-space base to the periphery of the star system as a frontline position to resist the enemy.
“The output of antimatter is too small. We also need to design a special antimatter manufacturing device and antimatter warehouse.” Du Xingyu discovered that using a particle collider to collect antimatter, it is estimated that it will take hundreds of years to meet the raw material conditions for an antimatter cannon.
The anti-matter required by the anti-matter reactor is even more difficult to satisfy.
“We must have an ultra-efficient antimatter manufacturing device!” Du Xingyu thought, the current way to manufacture antimatter is to use particle collisions.
Only hundreds of thousands of nuclear fusion engines can collide two beams of particles to produce dozens of grams of antimatter.
This efficiency is too slow!
“A more advanced antimatter manufacturing device needs more energy. Where can I find so much energy?” Du Xingyu thought about it. There seems to be only one place with so much energy-a star!
“A star is a huge plasma ball, and nuclear fusion reaction occurs all the time. If the energy of the star can be used, it will produce antimatter continuously. What kind of nuclear fusion engine is needed?” Du Xingyu’s thoughts gradually became “crazy”!
“The South Gate II star system has three stars, Alpha Centauri A, B, and C. Star C is Proxima Centauri. Star A is the main star and Star B is the companion star of the main star.”
“Humans currently bathe mainly in the light of Star A, in which Stars B and C are both smaller than the Sun, and their brightness is darker.”
“B star has a mass of 0.9 times the sun, and it is more difficult to use it. Star C is only 0.122 times the mass of the sun than neighboring star. If you want to use stellar energy, it is the best choice.
“To make a star into an energy factory, it will continuously produce antimatter with a steady flow of energy, and produce battleships, antimatter reactors, and curvature engines. It is the most suitable secondary civilization energy warehouse!
When Du Xingyu thought of this, his blood boiled over. He wrote a new project on the technology simulator-the stellar melting pot!
Du Xingyu does not have a complete idea for how to transform the star and turn it into an energy melting pot, but he believes that with the current human technology, there should be a way to do it.
…
A year later, outside the South Gate II star system, the “Sentinel Tower” deep space base.
In this spherical space military base, mining spacecraft, exploration satellites, and warships go back and forth. In more than a year, mankind has built various military facilities on it.
Its current military strength is comparable to a human fleet!
“Warning, warning, the area 78 detection satellite was destroyed!” Inside the guard tower, the sound of an alarm sounded the base.
“The enemy attacked?” Everyone immediately entered the state of armaments, the defense system was turned on, and the warship was on standby.
“The water drop aircraft was found, and it has approached the sentry tower base!” The subspace communication equipment simultaneously transmitted the information to the Alliance Command.
Du Xingyu’s mind was immediately connected to the virtual world through a biological computer, and five commanders have also arrived.
“The enemy is coming!” In the screen, the human-deployed reconnaissance satellite was pierced by a droplet aircraft. Behind it, the space fluctuated. Hundreds of droplet aircraft exited the curvature and flew towards the deep space base of the sentry tower!
“The enemy warship has not been found!” Huang Qihui, the commander of the sentry tower deep space base, reported.
“Send warships immediately and launch anti-matter bullets to destroy them as soon as possible!” Du Xingyu ordered.
“Yes!” Huang Qi immediately dispatched several unmanned warships to the target area.
The water drop vehicle accelerates towards the deep space base of the sentry tower, and no defensive measures can stop them!
Just like a few years ago, they are rampant!
The unmanned warship has approached the water drop aircraft, and as before, they continue to accelerate and ram into the nuclear fusion reactor of the unmanned warship.
“Come!” The commanders held their breath. If they failed to intercept the Water Droplet, the bluffing tactic would have failed!
An antimatter bullet locked onto the water drop vehicle at the forefront. It was still so smooth and flawless, reflecting the brilliance of the galaxy.
