Chapter 1 - When the meteorite strikes, are you ready?
A day that was originally Christmas, after experiencing the disasters and disasters of the year, people are eager to hope that this year will pass earlier and the disaster will be subdued.
After all, this year is a year full of pain for all mankind.
Plague, famine, war, death, the four horsemen of the apocalypse recorded in the Bible almost ravaged the world once, and human beings are obviously so vulnerable to the disasters brought by nature.
But people have not given up hope. Even in the face of disasters, we are still fighting hard, fighting against these disasters, showing the most precious golden spirit of mankind-full of hope and never bow to disaster.
However, it is as if God made a big joke with mankind. On this day, a huge meteorite with a diameter of more than ten kilometers was discovered by astronomers, and after calculations, astronomers confirmed that the orbit of this huge meteorite would be similar to blue. The orbits of the stars intersect and will hit the blue star within a few months.
The governments of various countries blocked the news as soon as they learned of the news. In order to avoid social panic, almost all astronomers were given the banned code.
But this kind of news cannot be blocked.
After all, meteorites are hanging in the sky. As meteorites get closer and closer to the blue star, astronomers around the world can see brighter and larger comets in the night sky as long as they set up their telescopes.
Furthermore, the aerospace operations and various countermeasures immediately launched by governments of various countries, in this era when the Internet is so developed, it is difficult not to catch clues.
These clues naturally spread to the Internet, arousing eager discussion at the same time, some foresighted people began to hoard materials after smelling the clues.
There have been too many disasters this year, and many people already have experience.
Food, medicine, protective equipment, communication equipment… These emergency supplies were sold out immediately.
Fortunately, there are quite a lot of disasters this year. Companies that produce these emergency supplies have increased their output of these disaster-response necessities, especially emergency food that can be stored for 20 or even 40 years. Supplies in short supply.
Even though this year, emergency food has been one of the most popular disaster relief supplies second only to protective gear.
It’s just that compared to snapping up these supplies, in Chen Xin’s view, it is more important to dig a shelter for yourself.
Chen Xin is an internet writer. He usually makes a living by speaking codewords on websites of various sizes. As a writer, the most important thing is his brain and logical thinking ability. After all, the so-called novel is essentially an attractive logic. Smooth brain hole.
And this undoubtedly led to Chen Xin’s thinking more complicated than others when facing such a possible disaster.
The meteorite hits the blue star, how should humans avoid disaster?
This question came to Chen Xin’s mind for the first time.
Fortunately, as an Internet writer, Chen Xin usually has a lot of brain holes. He also has the habit of recording these brain holes and trying to think and improve. The situation of meteorite hitting the blue star happens to be in the brain that Chen Xin thought about. Within the cave.
While hoarding supplies, while searching for information that may be found on the Internet, Chen Xin has not forgotten to extract the brain holes he had thought from the folder where he recorded his brain holes.
The giant meteorite hitting the blue star first brought a violent impact.
Judging by the current size of this meteorite, even if countries have a space interception plan, the probability of success is not high. The most likely reason is that the meteorite will shatter into several smaller pieces due to human interception actions, or wipe the blue. Star, or hit the blue star.
However, this does not mean that the degree of disaster will be reduced, and don’t think that a small meteorite is less dangerous, because this small meteorite is relative to the meteorite body with a diameter of more than ten kilometers.
Even if it is broken into meteorite fragments several kilometers in size, hitting a blue star can still bring devastating disaster.
A meteorite with a diameter of more than five kilometers hits the blue star, leaving no humans or animals within a radius of at least one thousand kilometers.
The impacted meteorite will lift the material near the impact site directly into space, and the thermal energy generated by the meteorite friction with the atmosphere and the energy released by the impact will form a block that is at least ten kilometers high and the temperature exceeds thousands of degrees Celsius. The fiery wall of fire swept everything within a radius of at least 1,500 kilometers.
Within this range, even if you can hide in an underground bunker, there is a high probability that the high temperature will be as stuffed as a stuffed kiln chicken in Meizhou, Guangdong. Even if you dug the bunker deep enough, at least it will follow An earthquake of magnitude 11 or higher is enough to bury you alive.
If you are lucky, if humans survive tens of millions of years later, you can still dig out your fossils.
If you are interested in leaving some traces for humans, you can raise your middle finger, and later humans will definitely be moved by your optimistic spirit.
The shock wave caused by a meteorite impact will spread back and forth several times around the world at several times the speed of sound, so no matter where you are in the blue star, you can hear the violent sound of the meteorite impact.
If you are in the opposite hemisphere when the meteorite strikes, there is no danger for the time being, and the sound of the shock wave is enough to remind you to hide in the bunker.
But all this is just the beginning, the disaster has just begun.
In the next few days, a fire storm consisting of haze and rubble will cover the entire Blue Star, causing the global temperature to rise from two levels to the equator to 70-200 degrees, turning the entire Blue Star surface into a huge oven .
The entire earth’s surface will become unsuitable for human survival. All plants will be roasted and burned by this high temperature. The toxic and harmful gases produced by global fires will spread throughout the atmosphere. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com will kill. Most creatures on the surface of the dead.
And all this is still just a prelude and prelude to the disaster, everything can only be said to be an appetizer before the big meal.
Because of the increase in atmospheric temperature, the sea level will also rise rapidly, and the impact of kinetic energy released by the meteorite impact will produce a tsunami that is thousands of meters high and hit almost all coastal cities.
The dust cloud set off by the impact and the haze formed by the toxic gas produced by the global fire will block the sunlight, cover the blue star for dozens or even hundreds of years, and plunge the blue star into a long dark night.
The material thrown into space by the meteorite impact and the smaller meteorite fragments entrapped by the meteorite itself will continue to hit the blue star.
In the hemisphere where the meteorite impact site is located, all this is like carpet bombing. The continuous meteorite impact will make few people in the entire hemisphere survive.
Even if it can hide in an underground bunker, it is impossible to survive this kind of meteorite bombardment that ranges from a few meters to a few hundred meters almost every day.
As for the hemisphere where the impact location is opposite, luck will be slightly better, but there will also be a meteorite falling randomly. It can almost be said that there is a certain chance that the meteorite will smash several tall buildings when you go out.
But it’s not over yet, because the world is covered by thick dust clouds and haze formed by toxic gases. In the next few months, the temperature will cool rapidly.
If the high-latitude cities were not destroyed in the impact, the temperature would drop to minus 70 degrees, while the equatorial region would be slightly better, probably still minus twenty or thirty degrees.
Because this long night without seeing the sky will last for dozens or even hundreds of years, and the extremely cold weather will last for a whole century, in this long and extremely cold night, the setting of the ice age will become a reality.
