Chapter 88 Discovering a Planet



"Report, this is the signal from the trigger-type hydrogen bomb detonator..."

"The signal was 12,000 kilometers from the fleet, traveling at 520 kilometers per second..."

After hearing the technical staff's report, everyone, including Jiang Yu, broke out in a cold sweat.

According to previous analysis, the opponent's technological level is only slightly higher than ours.

It is not surprising that the other side still retains weapons such as hydrogen bombs.

The human fleet also has things like hydrogen bombs and hydrogen bomb detonators.

The working principle of the hydrogen bomb detonator is also very simple and effective.

It is to install an instrument on the hydrogen bomb that continuously sends out signals.

Once an unknown object is detected within a certain range, it will detonate immediately.

The signal emitted by a hydrogen bomb detonator is extremely weak and difficult to detect.

If it weren't for the human fleet's various detection instruments performing full-power scans.

It is very likely that a hydrogen bomb that does not produce visible light in the vast space will not be discovered.

You have to know that space is not like the surface of a planet, and incoming targets are relatively easy to detect.

It is truly three-dimensional in space and the attack direction can be any direction.

Furthermore, the incoming hydrogen bomb was not launched by an engine, but by a projectile.

This method relies entirely on the kinetic energy and inertia generated by the ejection to move forward in space without resistance.

Moreover, it does not produce visible light, and even the radiation source of invisible light is very weak, making it too difficult to detect.

Although the power of a hydrogen bomb in space will be greatly reduced, the power of a hydrogen bomb exploding at close range should not be underestimated.

The power unleashed at the instant of the explosion can not only shatter the hull, but also damage the instruments, equipment and sensitive components of nearby spacecraft.

"Fire a laser beam to destroy the incoming target."

"The fleet is moving and ready for battle."

Jiang Yu immediately became angry and did not bother to hide the whereabouts of the fleet.

Because no one knows how many hydrogen bombs the other side has launched.

If the fleet had maintained a tight formation, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Under Jiang Yu's command, a township-level spacecraft immediately fired a wave of laser beams.

Visible light immediately spread out as dazzling flames flickered in the blackness of space.

With the help of the scattered visible light source, the detection equipment immediately issued a dense alarm sound.

Dense black dots suddenly appeared on the radar screen. Those black dots were hydrogen bombs.

The township-level spacecraft scattered in front fired laser beams one after another without any orders.

The incoming hydrogen bombs were detonated by lasers, and clusters of brilliant fireworks bloomed in space.

As more hydrogen bombs were detonated, all incoming targets could no longer hide and were all exposed.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Jiang Yu was very angry:

"Since you were the one who attacked first, don't blame me for being rude."

"Immediately analyze the incoming trajectory of the enemy's hydrogen bomb and prepare to launch a space missile."

The opponent's hydrogen bomb uses a projectile method, so it is easy to determine where the launch source is.

Following Jiang Yu's order, thousands of space missiles carrying high-yield hydrogen bombs were launched.

These space missiles are equipped with nuclear fusion engines, so their speed is naturally much faster than the projection method.

Of course, nuclear fusion engines also emit bright visible light and radiation sources, which makes it easier for the other side to detect us.

But now Jiang Yu can no longer care about many things. It would be rude not to reciprocate.

Since the other party believes that they can gain greater benefits by going to war.

Jiang Yu would naturally give up the idea of ​​a peaceful transaction.

The missile's speed in space is very fast, reaching three thousand kilometers per second.

Not long after, balls of extremely dazzling flames also erupted in the distant space.

It is obvious that all the missiles launched by the human fleet were intercepted by the other side, also using laser weapons.

Because the speed of laser is the speed of light, it is the best weapon to intercept space missiles with speeds reaching 3,000 kilometers per second.

At the same time, the position of the enemy fleet was completely exposed to the human fleet.

It was a massive fleet of over two thousand starships.

But this was not enough to surprise the Terran fleet.

After all, the human race also has 1,100 large spaceships at the township and town levels, and more than 3,000 small spaceships at the village level.

Although village-level small spaceships can play a much smaller role than large spaceships in real space battles.

But as the saying goes, "many ants can kill an elephant," the power of missiles carrying nuclear warheads and small laser weapons launched by village-level spacecraft should not be underestimated.

What really stunned the human fleet was:

In the light of the missile explosion, under the detection of high-precision optical detectors.

In addition to seeing the opponent's densely packed interstellar spaceships, we also saw... a planet.

And under the calculation of the supercomputer, the data of this planet was quickly displayed.

Its volume is about twice that of a blue star, and its mass is about 1.8 times that of a blue star.

Spectral analysis shows that the planet has a thick atmosphere.

Its main components are sulfur and nitrogen, with a small amount of oxygen.

Everyone who saw this scene was stunned.

This is the vast universe, the endless dark space.

The nearest star to the Alpha Centauri system is 4.2 light-years away.

Planets usually revolve around stars, but here a planet appeared.

Of course, there is also a special case where the planet is in a binary or even multiple star system.

In the gravitational battle between multiple stars, the planet was expelled from its original orbit and became a wandering planet.

However, in a multi-star system, it is difficult for a planet to have an atmosphere due to the huge gravitational pull.
