Chapter 38 The US Satellite Went Blind
After the medal awarding ceremony.
Life at the base seemed to have returned to normal.
But secretly, that taut string was being pulled tighter and tighter.
Because the "clothes rack" antenna that Zhao Di repaired could do more than just communication.
It also has a "hidden feature" that comes with the system.
That night.
The command center was brightly lit.
On the radar screen, a green dot is moving rapidly.
Those are American reconnaissance satellites.
It is also their most advanced "keyhole" series.
It circles around our heads several times every day.
In the past, we had no choice but to watch helplessly.
Even for the sake of secrecy, important equipment had to be covered with camouflage netting every time a satellite passed overhead.
It's so frustrating.
"Commander, that thing is here again."
The radar operator gritted his teeth as he reported.
Commander Zhang stared at the point of light and snorted coldly.
"Good timing."
"Perfect timing to test our new guy with it."
He turned to look at Zhao Di, who was sitting to the side playing with building blocks.
"Zhaodi, Grandpa has something to ask you."
"Can that antenna also be used to swat flies?"
Zhao Di is busy building the roof for the block house.
Hearing his grandfather ask, he replied without looking up:
Yes, you can.
"My uncle said that the frame can emit very powerful light waves."
"Specifically for burning the eyes of bad guys."
The system added a haughty comment in her mind.
What exactly constitutes a powerful light wave?
That's a directional high-energy microwave beam!
That's the art of electronic warfare!
[Host, stop playing with building blocks.]
Let's teach that peeping tom in the sky a lesson!
Let it know that peeping at someone taking a bath comes at a price!
Commander Zhang was delighted to hear this.
"good!"
"Then burn it!"
"Relay my orders!"
"Radar operating at full power!"
"Target locked!"
"Burn its dog eyes blind for me!"
With Commander Zhang's order.
The "clothes rack" antenna standing in the cold wind suddenly emitted a low hum.
Although invisible to the naked eye.
But on the radar screen, a strong interference beam appeared like an invisible sword.
Soaring straight into the sky!
at the same time.
Across the ocean.
Inside NASA's monitoring center.
Several technicians were leisurely chatting about the weekend's rugby game while sipping coffee.
On the screen was the live feed transmitted back by that "keyhole" satellite.
Although it is in black and white, the clarity is extremely high.
You can even see the outlines of cars on the ground.
"Hey, look at these rabbits."
"They're still scavenging for food in that desert."
A technician chewing gum pointed at Base 091 on the screen with a mocking expression.
"That energy fluctuation last time must have been an accident."
"Look, it's pitch black there now, you can't even see a ghost."
Just as they were about to zoom in and take a closer look.
Sudden.
The image on the screen flashed suddenly.
Immediately afterwards, it was as if a bucket of snow had been poured over it.
It instantly turned deathly white!
"Fuck!"
"What's going on?!"
The technician spilled coffee all over his pants.
He frantically typed on the keyboard, trying to restore the screen.
But it didn't work.
The screen was filled with large patches of noise and a piercing electrical buzzing sound.
"Signal lost!"
"Image transmission interrupted!"
"Lens sensor overload!"
"Oh my god! Temperature alarm! The lens is burned!"
The monitoring center was in complete chaos.
The alarms blared in unison.
The bureau chief rushed out of his office, his tie askew.
"what happened?!"
"Did the satellite collide with a meteorite?!"
The technician stared at the pile of red alarm data, his face ashen.
"No...it's not a meteorite..."
"Chief, the data analysis shows..."
"Our satellite...it's like it's been blinded by a blinding light!"
glare?
The bureau chief was stunned.
Where did this bright light come from so late at night?
Did the sun rise early?
"It was... launched from the ground!"
The technician pointed to the source of the data, his voice trembling.
"That's the coordinate!"
"That's the base of those rabbits!"
"They...they used some kind of unknown weapon to burn our camera lens!"
How is this possible?!
The bureau chief felt his brain wasn't working properly.
Don't rabbits often go hungry?
Doesn't it even lack a decent radar?
How could they possibly possess such a directed-energy weapon?!
This is a cutting-edge technology that even the US military hasn't figured out in their labs!
"devil……"
"There must be a devil lurking in that desert!"
The bureau chief slumped in his chair, his eyes filled with fear.
A satellite that costs several hundred million dollars to build.
And that's how he became blind.
It became space debris.
At Base 091.
A thunderous cheer erupted in the command center.
"Blind! Really blind!"
"Its signal has disappeared!"
"Well done!"
Commander Zhang was so excited that he picked up Zhao Di and kissed her hard on the cheek.
"Zhao Di!"
"You're truly our lucky star!"
"Let's see how they try to peek now!"
Zhao Di kept dodging because of the prickles from the beard.
She didn't know what a satellite was or what it meant to be blind.
All she knew was that the annoying fly had been swatted away.
"Grandpa, the flies have been chased away."
"Can I eat chocolate now?"
Zhao Di blinked her big eyes, looking expectant.
Commander Zhang laughed heartily.
Eat! Eat as much as you want!
"From now on, whatever you want to eat, Grandpa will get it for you!"
"Even if it's a star in the sky, Grandpa will find a way to pluck it down for you!"
Lin Jianguo stood aside, watching his daughter's smug look.
I felt a sense of relief.
He was a soldier.
What I hate most is the feeling of being watched.
Now it's all right.
The girl made a move and gouged out the other person's eyeballs.
This feels fucking awesome!
"but……"
Lin Jianguo suddenly felt a little worried.
"Commander, if we do this, won't it be...?"
Commander Zhang waved his hand dismissively.
"What's there to be afraid of!"
"If they dare to do the first day of the month, we dare to do the fifteenth!"
"Besides, what are we doing here?"
"This is a communication equipment malfunction; a little signal accidentally leaked out."
"Who told their satellite to fly so low? It crashed into us!"
"This is a traffic accident! We haven't even sought compensation from them yet!"
Everyone laughed when he said that.
That's the source of their confidence.
With strength comes confidence and authority.
That night.
NASA is having a sleepless night.
However, the night sky above Base 091 was exceptionally clear.
The blind satellite, like a lost soul, slunk across the sky.
I dare not look at this magical land again.
Because of this place.
There was a rabbit that no one dared to mess with.
There's also a three-year-old little devil that nobody dares to mess with.
