Meteorite Wanderer
Heliosheath Heliosphere
it alone has a strong magnetic field, otherwise it would not be the boundary zone of the solar system.
Soon, Chen Lu took out a rover probe to search for a release nebula in the heliosphere.
Although the heliosphere is just a dust belt on the border of the solar system, it also has more than a dozen astronomical units.
The astronomical unit refers to the average distance from Earth to the sun— of about 1.5 billion kilometers!
Imagine the average distance between a dozen Earths and the sun This is a huge dust buffer zone, where magical matter can appear.
However, Lu Chen flew for a long time, but still did not find the release nebula!
The universe is normal and impermanent like this. There may be many magical substances, but there are more silent and cold vacuum. It's like a very powerful starlight, but to the vast universe, it's just chestnut in the sea.
Therefore, it was conceivable that Lu Chen's wandering journey was destined to be filled with loneliness and loneliness.
This was also the reason why he wanted to repair the detector, he only wanted someone to accompany and talk, otherwise, he might be crazy by being lonely!
During the search for the release nebula.
Of course, Chen Lu would not let go of the interstellar troubles he had encountered along the way.
Before he knew it, its size had grown to a diameter of 10,000 meters.
The crust of the star is also thicker and harder than before due to gravity.
There are still meteorite impact craters ranging from a few meters to a hundred meters on the surface of the star rock, which was formed due to meteorite collisions in the heliosphere.
Heliosphere is not as safe as in the solar system.After flying in the solar system for a long time, you will not find meteorites, but the heliosphere can basically meet one every second.
Because the numbers were too many, some of them broke away from the gravitational bonds too quickly and crashed into the star stones directly.
And Lu Chen was able to endure until now, thanks to his sense of crisis earlier, he took the initiative to increase his density as soon as he entered the heliosphere, otherwise, he would be a pile of trash at this moment.
A vast universe, long years.
After a long flight, Lu Chen came to an area where shock waves were impermanent.
The material in this area and the outer interstellar medium have always been in fierce confrontation, forming bursts of shock waves.
Lu Chen knew that this should be the area between the heliopause and the terminal shock wave, known as the heliosheath by humans!
Heliosheath is mainly a special area formed by the impact of solar wind and other stellar winds.
Huge!
Lu Chen could not help but get a little excited, he would eventually fly out of the solar system.
However, what made him happier was that he found a cluster of release nebulae in the helio sheath!
Discharge nebulae are formed by solar wind and stellar wind. It's about 100 meters in size. Blue and purple mixed with dazzling. It seemed to be a cloud of high-speed vibration particles, which had unleashed purple lightning!
Lu Chen immediately controlled the probe to approach slowly, but stopped abruptly halfway.
He originally wanted to let the detector go directly into the discharge nebula to collect electricity, but he suddenly realized that the nebula's voltage was very high, and every particle was charged. The electrical component will be damaged by the current first.
So he decided to use another method to collect electricity for the detector.
After thinking about it, he controlled his massive body to slowly approach the release nebula.
In this way, whenever the releasing nebula releases lightning, it will be affected by the gravitational influence of the star rock, and will instantly split into the rock crust of the star.
That was what he was thinking, using the earth's ability to absorb lightning.
At this moment, Lu Chen used the boom generator gravity control probe to touch the ground, slowly absorbing the diluted current.
This speed is not fast, but at least it works. After a long time of charging, the detector battery board is finally fully charged!
Detection system activated immediately.
When Lu Chen saw the lights on the surface of the detector lighting up one by one, he could not help feeling happy, excited, and proud.
“Vagrant, I fixed you, why don't you call Brother!” Lu Chen gave the order with the conscious particles.
It's unfortunate that Wanderer's revived sister is unable to understand him at all. He turned on his own thrusters, slowly flew away, and continued his unfinished mission.
From start to finish, it ignored the savior in front of it!
“You ungrateful wanderer!” Lu Chen complained weakly, but he did not mean to blame, only venting loneliness and loneliness in his heart.
This journey alone was very lonely and lonely!
At the same time, the probe found that it had come into the heliosheath area through scanning, so it took pictures of the special things around it, he said, and send it to the Earth coordinates along with the scanning data.
Seeing this scene, Lu Chen's heart suddenly became extremely uncomfortable and admired.
He wanted to tell the Wanderer that the Earth had been lost, and even if it was sent back, no one would accept it.
But he could not bear to tell No Wanderer about such cruel news. Perhaps it was the best option to let No Wanderer continue faithfully completing his mission.
A wanderer is born to explore the universe, let him die for it!
Why would he have to tell her the cruel fact that she had been abandoned by her master?
Furthermore, Lu Chen and the Wanderers flew out of the heliosheath area, out of the solar system, and officially entered the wider cosmic space.
The Wanderer's mission was to explore the universe, and Lu Chen's goal was to also explore the universe. The purpose of both coincides. Lu Chen slowly used gravity to guide the probes following him along the way.
The Wanderer's investigation found that it was locked by a strange gravitational force, which seemed to come from a large meteorite, so he took some pictures of Lu Chen and sent them back to the Earth's coordinates.
Lu Chen did not stop him. Watching the Wanderer faithfully complete his mission is also one of his pleasures to pass the boring time now.
...
somewhere outside the solar system.
An enormous space warship intercepts a signal sent by the Wanderer.
Life on a warship is a race that calls itself an iron-based civilization. Sixty percent of their bodies are composed of iron elements, and other trace elements such as carbon, zinc, hydrogen, oxygen, sodium, and magnesium.
They were born with a head, two arms, and evolved with four legs to withstand the immense gravity of their parent star.
They are thicker than humans, but only one-third the height of humans, as they have been affected by the immense gravity of their home planet since evolution.
“Captain, we have just outlined the contents of the intercepted signal!”
“Oh, what is it? I had no idea besides our iron-based civilization, there were other life forms in this nebula system!”
“The signal is that the Traveler Investigator has flown into the heliosheath region of the solar system, with data content of the heliosheath region, and some photos!"
"Solar system? Is this the star system they live in? still using probes to explore themselves. The star system they are in means that their civilization has not reached the first level of civilization, otherwise they would definitely be able to use the energy of planets like ours to fly out of the star system they are in. located."
"Captain, I've found the signal launch coordinates, and I've intercepted some photos. This time it seems that everything is a photo of an ordinary meteorite. I don't know what's the point of sending a meaningless photo like that?"
"Low-level civilizations will naturally do some stupid things. It is not surprising that since they have not even reached the first level of civilization, they are in no way qualified to cooperate with us. Give my orders and head immediately to the 23-day area where the solar system is located to see if this civilization has any plunderable resources!"
