Chapter 56 Pandora's Box

Solar helium flash?

Everyone in the conference room was stunned.

After scanning around, Yan Zhenggan saw their bewildered faces and understood everyone's meaning.

Obviously, this answer exceeded their expectations.

Yan Zhengqian realized this, and he continued to explain without waiting for others to ask questions:
"Actually, we received a report recorded by astronomers to Ming a year ago."

"It contains a detailed record of solar activity records for the past thousand years and changes in the last 100 years. Based on this record, Mr. Xiang Ming deduced that the fusion of the sun's core will intensify and eventually cause a fatal helium flash crisis."

"At that time, all creatures on Blue Star will be severely affected."

After Yan Zhenggan finished speaking, there was a collective silence.

The harm of the solar helium flash crisis is far greater than the sunspot movement recognized by ordinary people.

The solar helium flash is a very strong solar eruption phenomenon, which is caused by the rapid burning of the helium element in the core of the sun in a very short time.

During a helium flash, the sun's energy output is much higher than usual, and the amount of energy released is huge, and the energy released is equivalent to hundreds of millions of times the sum of the past releases!
This phenomenon will lead to the rupture of the sun's magnetic field, resulting in huge solar flares, and the blue star that exists as life will suffer a catastrophe!
A physicist spoke up:
"Is this... a bit unfounded?"

"We all know that the sun's ability to emit heat is due to the internal nuclear reactors. You said that the acceleration of fusion should theoretically depend on the number of nuclear reactors inside the sun. Has this data been measured yet?"

"If it is not detected, how can we be sure that the solar helium flash crisis is about to erupt?"

Yan Zhenggan glanced at the other party, frowned slightly and said:
"If the number of solar nuclear reactors can be detected as you said, there is no need for the country to invite you to sit here for a meeting."

This was said bluntly, with a sense of blame, which made the scholar's face turn blue and red.

In fact, because the solar activity has been like this for a long time, sometimes it is stable, and sometimes it erupts slightly, so ordinary scholars seldom put their minds on the sun.

For them, it is better to study some other things if they have time to study the sun.

After all, the time spent on other research can still make some contributions to contemporary humans, and the study of the sun is not necessarily the case.

You may not be able to research anything in your life.

But Yan Zhengqian is not in the mood to think about these things now, he continued to say:

"We have no way to accurately measure the number of solar nuclear reactors now, but don't forget that this kind of big crisis happened more than once on Blue Star."

"More than 200 years ago, during the Carrington event, the content of solar particles produced by the solar storm has reached between 10 and 10 according to the ice core sample records."

"Group leader Yan, do you mean that the detected solar particles have exceeded the previous data?"

A female biologist gradually understood what Yan Zhenggan meant, and she began to guess according to Yan Zhenggan's train of thought.

"That's right, under the reminder of Teacher Xiang Ming, we seized the time to send people to conduct comparative research, and found that the content of solar particles is gradually increasing. Coupled with the occurrence of natural disasters in the past year, we have reason to believe that the solar helium flash crisis It's about to explode."

"Once a helium flash occurs, we estimate that the sun will release nuclear fusion energy equivalent to millions of years in a very short period of time."

Following Yan Zhengqian's narration, the pictures and data on the slide screen kept changing.

Seeing the series of rigorous and clear evidence in front of them, everyone fell silent.

There was a dead silence in the conference room.

Everyone began to panic in their hearts.

They all know the importance of the sun to Blue Star. If there is a problem with the sun, then Blue Star will face...or human beings will face the danger of extinction.

"Group Leader Yan...I want to ask how long is it before the crisis breaks out? How long do we have to prepare?" Old Wu asked a key question.

"At present, the solar helium flash explosion is estimated to erupt around 2100, and there are still 74 years left."

Hearing this answer, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But some astronomers quickly reacted:
"But the impact of the solar helium flash crisis is unlikely to appear until 2100, right Team Leader Yan?"

"Yes, the recent series of abnormal events are all related to the increase in solar activity. It is expected that there will be a G9-level solar storm around September."

Group Leader Yan's tone was calm but surprised all the astronomers.

"Team Leader Yan, are you sure you're right? Solar storms are ranked from low to high from G1 to G5, and G5 is the highest level."

"G1-level solar storms may have a slight impact on aviation and space facilities."

"And a solar storm at the G5 level may cause major impacts on all equipment such as satellite communications, navigation and radar, not to mention, it will also cause harm to the human body!"

An astronomer became more and more excited as he talked, and finally stood up.

"You heard me right, it's definitely a G5 grade, we've already confirmed this with Teacher Xiang Ming."

"So everyone, now we need to figure out how to deal with this crisis."

"We have reason to believe that humans have now opened Pandora's Box."

Team Leader Yan's firm tone made everyone present flustered.

Scholars who were rational and calm in the past are now arguing loudly like ordinary people:
"How can we be prepared for you to say that suddenly? There are billions of people in the Dragon Kingdom, facing this kind of crisis, to be honest, everyone can't bear it!"

"Then what should we do? Build a big spaceship to immigrate?"

"Hey, I think the idea of ​​a spaceship is feasible, so let's do it this way!"

"It is indeed possible to build a spaceship, but have you ever thought about where we are going?"

"Yes, there is a solar helium flash crisis. It is too dangerous to stay in the solar system. Who knows if it will be affected!"

At this time, an astronomer named He Liantang saw the gap in the discussion and made a suggestion:
"I think the spacecraft project is feasible at present. We can build a space biosphere in space and achieve self-sufficiency."

"However, the only rare thing now is how to find such talents in a short period of time to help us build these devices."

"To carry billions of people to the sky, this project is really a bit big to be honest."

After He Liantang finished speaking, a group of scholars nodded in agreement with his statement. Everyone believed that it would be too difficult to bring billions of people to heaven in a short period of time.

The entire conference room fell into a stalemate in an instant, and the atmosphere of silence enveloped everyone.

"Let's take a break for now, we'll discuss it in half an hour."

Yan Zhenggan saw that everyone could not come up with a definite plan, so he decided to let them rest for a while.

Yan Zhenggan sighed speechlessly, but unexpectedly Chief Tang approached him.

"Mr. Yan, I need to leave. A suspicious person has been found in this city. He is making military equipment under the guise of making props."

Yan Zhengqian's military rank is actually higher than Chief Tang's, so Chief Tang has to address Yan Zhenggan as "Mr. Yan".

"Who dares to be so bold?"

There was a hint of anger in Yan Zhenggan's voice. He didn't know who else would dare to commit crimes on Longguo.

"I don't know. The people I sent out said that the equipment is better than what we are using now, so I have to take someone to have a look."

"Oh? Really?" Yan Zhenggan raised his eyebrows, feeling that this matter was more interesting than expected.

"If this person is really talented, he can..."
