On the seventh day after the discovery of the meteorite, which was also the fifth day after the governments of various countries announced the information about the meteorite, the demolition teams sent by China, the United States, Russia, Britain, Germany, France, and other countries to outer space were ready.
Then, all of them turned on their television, internet, and radio broadcasts at the same time. It was to stabilize the mood of the increasingly irritable people.
In fact, it was not just these countries. There were also some other countries that had formed teams to blast meteorites in the sky.
After all, they were not at ease leaving their fate to be decided by other countries.
These countries were Japan, India, and North Korea.
When the live broadcast began, almost everyone in the world turned on their televisions or computers to watch the official live broadcast.
After all, this was a major event that concerned the survival of the entire human race. If they failed this time, then all humans would be finished.
In the live news broadcast, all the countries 'launch vehicles ignited at almost the same time. China, the United States, Russia, Britain, Germany, and France all launched two launch vehicles at the same time, each carrying a space shuttle into space.
Japan, India, and North Korea only launched. A launch vehicle and only a space shuttle.
There was nothing they could do about it. To prepare two launch vehicles and a space shuttle in such a short time, as well as a high-yield nuclear bomb to be detonated after landing on the meteorite, was not something that any country could do.
Fifteen launch vehicles carrying fifteen space shuttles flew into outer space, but this was just the beginning. It would take six days for the space shuttle to reach the moon's orbit.
Then, on the seventh day, when the meteorite brushed past the moon, the space shuttle used the gravitational acceleration of the moon to catch up with the meteorite from behind. Then, it landed, drilled a hole, buried a nuclear bomb, and detonated it.
If this series of steps went smoothly, they would be able to blow up the meteorite to the point where it would not threaten Earth before it approached.
Of course, if all the countries failed, then the only path for mankind was death.
However, twenty minutes after the live broadcast began, an accident suddenly happened.
The rocket launched by North Korea suddenly exploded, and the space shuttle on the rocket was instantly destroyed. The rescue team in the space shuttle was also killed.
Fortunately, the rocket exploded at an altitude of more than 1,000 kilometers, so the nuclear bomb that was detonated later did not cause any damage to the ground.
In addition, logically speaking, the North Korean team should be considered martyrs, but no one had the energy to mourn them now. If the operation failed, those people would only die a few days earlier.
However, because of the North Korean rocket explosion, many people in the world became even more pessimistic. The crime rate has risen again in many places. This made many governments even more anxious.
Wang Wei was still livestreaming the assembly of his super plasma cannon.
After five days of assembly, it was almost halfway done. The general shape of the body was also revealed.
A rectangular cannon barrel with a base diameter of seven meters, the thickest diameter of four meters, the thinnest diameter of two meters, and a length of ten meters had been constructed.
Although there were still many parts that had not been built, it could be seen that Wang Wei's super plasma cannon was very impressive.
"Technology geek, you really are a technology geek. You built this thing in five days. Although he didn't know if this 'plasma cannon' was really useful, just its appearance was awesome enough!”
"North Korea has already failed. Can other countries really succeed?”
"Technology geek, although I know you're acting tough, please finish acting tough. When the country successfully destroys the meteorite, you can also pretend to shoot a shot into the sky. Then, you can brag about this for the rest of your life.”
Wang Wei happened to walk to his phone to take a break and drink some water. Then, he saw the bullet comments on the screen.
Wang Wei had no choice but to accept the fact that the audience still did not believe him.
However, as long as Wang Wei finished assembling the super plasma cannon, he would fire it at the meteorite in space. Wang Wei believed that the audience who did not believe him would be so surprised that they would not be able to close their mouths, and they would definitely become his brainless fans.
Most importantly, when he became famous for saving the Earth, his reputation would definitely soar. At that time, Wang Wei would have a lot of reputation to squander.
"I know that many of you still don't believe that I will save Earth, but don't worry. In seven days, the plasma cannon that I designed and assembled will be completed.”
Six days later, the space shuttles of all the countries had arrived at the established orbit above the moon. Now, they only needed to rotate around the moon and use the moon's gravity to accelerate when the meteorite passed near the moon. They would then catch up with the meteorite and land on it.
At the same time, Wang Wei's assembly of the plasma cannon had entered the final stage.
