Chapter 639 Metal Rectangle
"What is this?" Yin Siyong looked at the results of the magnetic field scan with a trace of doubt on his face.
Through the magnetic field detectors of three satellites, they have now established a three-dimensional anatomical map of the planet Courage.
But something unexpected appeared in this three-dimensional anatomical picture.
Several researchers on board the ship also stared at the holographic anatomical diagram with frowns on their faces.
In one of the valleys of the Star of Courage, there is a large "building" that looks very much like a civilized creation.
Michelle scratched his head and guessed, "Is it another spaceship or relic from an alien civilization?"
"A rectangular spaceship?" Yin Siyong carefully enlarged the image.
I saw a metal rectangle with a length of 3.7 kilometers, a width of 425 meters and a height of 257 meters, inserted into the stratum of the Courage Star.
This metal rectangle is very regular and has a lot of voids inside.
It’s just that there is no nuclear reaction inside this thing, and there are even very few radioactive isotopes, so it doesn’t look like a spaceship.
A researcher was also very surprised by this metal structure: "According to the law of metal formation, this thing is most likely not formed naturally, but there is no trace of radioactive substances inside, which means that this thing is not nuclear-powered. If it does not use nuclear power, does it use chemical energy or solar energy?"
"Chemical energy? Solar energy? Isn't this too unbelievable?" Another researcher did not think that chemical energy and solar energy could support spacecraft in interstellar travel.
One of the female researchers had a wild idea: "Could it be that antimatter energy is used? Or other vacuum zero-point energy or something like that?"
"Haha...Annie, you think too much. A civilization that can use antimatter is almost a quasi-second-level civilization. Vacuum zero-point energy is a technology that only a second-level civilization can master."
"This metal structure is indeed very strange."
"Don't be surprised. Report to the headquarters! They should send support quickly."
"That's true."
Soon several researchers discussed the disposal plan with Yin Siyong and others.
By synchronizing the server, they quickly reported the discovery of the Star of Courage.
Less than half an hour later, the report reached the Minister of Space Defense, and then Li Qingye also knew about it.
Li Qingye has recently been working in the second Pangu world of Callisto through a synchronous robot. When he received an urgent report, he immediately used holographic projection to pull the heads of the Space Defense Department, Space Reconnaissance Department, Science Department, and Space Department into the conference room.
He glanced at everyone. Mikoyan, Hill, and Jiang Mingxuan were all confused. He knew that they didn't know about , so he shared the file with them:
"You all take a look at this report."
Hill reacted immediately. After all, Li Qingye suddenly convened a virtual meeting, which must mean he encountered an emergency.
She quickly flipped through the report, and after reading it, a trace of ugly and solemnity appeared on Hill's face.
"Another alien civilization?" Jiang Mingxuan muttered to himself.
“…” Mikoyan frowned but remained silent.
Seeing that everyone had finished reading the report, Li Qingye went straight to the point: "Obviously, the density of alien civilizations in the universe is higher than we imagined. This is already the second alien civilization event discovered within the solar system. Tell us what you think!"
Hill was the first to speak: "Chairman, I think it is necessary to once again strengthen the monitoring of the surrounding planetary systems, and at the same time conduct a comprehensive investigation of the stars in the Kuiper Belt."
"Well, you arrange it!"
Jiang Mingxuan said with a serious look, "Chairman, judging from the alien civilization creations in the report, this spaceship is unusual. I suggest that you approach it with caution. There may be unknown dangers hidden inside."
"Danger?" Mikoyan shook his head. "Jiang, you are too worried. If there is a real danger, it would not have waited until now. After all, according to the isotope measurement data of the surface of Courage, the surface of this planet has not undergone major changes for at least 82.31 million years."
"I don't think they would wait for 82.31 million years until we advance to the first level of civilization before coming out to cause trouble. This doesn't make sense."
However, Hill refuted Mikoyan's statement: "Doctor, we cannot look at the behavior patterns of aliens from the perspective of human civilization. Dr. Jiang's concerns are reasonable."
As one of the persons in charge of the intelligence system of the Homo Sapiens Corporation, Hill and several senior colleagues had learned a lot of intelligence knowledge.
Especially after the last Saturn combat exercise, Hill had been reflecting on how to improve the intelligence system of Sapiens to ensure that the system would not become arrogant.
Therefore, after reading the special report from Courage Star, she did not rule out the danger of the metal rectangle.
Even though the other party had been buried underground on the Star of Courage for 82.31 million years, Hill did not let down his guard. When dealing with alien civilizations, caution is a very necessary attitude.
Li Qingye was quite satisfied with Hill's performance. At least the other party was not arrogant and did not think that the alien creation had completely lost its threat after 82.31 million years of baptism.
"Hill, this time the investigation of Planet Courage will be led by your Space Reconnaissance Department, with other departments cooperating."
"Yes, thank you for your trust, Mr. Chairman." Hill stood up instantly and saluted solemnly.
As for Mikoyan, Li Qingye did not say anything. After all, he was a scientist-type administrator and was not very good at intelligence analysis and psychology. The Space Division also tended to be more inclined towards scientific research and production.
The head of the Space Defense Department saw that everyone had said almost everything, so he asked cautiously, "Mr. Chairman , should we strengthen the defense of Planet Courage just in case?"
"..." Li Qingye thought for a moment and asked directly: "How many warships have completed the upgrade and transformation?"
"The Earth Defense Department has already modified two Azure Dragon-class ships and two Scarlet Phoenix-class ships."
Li Qingye immediately made up his mind: "Then we will mobilize the warships of the Earth Defense Department to form a task force and immediately go to the Courage Star to deploy defenses."
"Yes, I will make sure to arrange everything and nip any danger in the bud."
Li Qingye naturally doesn't need to worry about the specific deployment of defenses and warship weapons and equipment, as this is also the main job of the Space Defense Department.
Hill quickly formed a professional investigation team and placed a series of investigation equipment and synchronized robots on the two Qinglong-class ships.
The Space Defense Department was also mobilizing its troops. In less than a week, four warships set sail from the lunar orbit towards the North Star, then entered the ecliptic parallel channel and flew towards the Star of Courage.
