Just a few minutes later, the scattered battleships began to transmit space numbers to the Xinyuan, and the digital model in the ship's computer took shape at a rapid pace.

The nascent pulsar has a strong gravitational pull, but it has already thrown out most of the star's mass in a supernova explosion, leaving it only a few times the mass of the Sun, so the space enveloped by the nebula is actually not as large as the solar system.

However, because the area was full of chaotic celestial objects, the battleship had to carefully calculate its course to avoid colliding with the celestial bodies, so the time to reach the target point was inconsistent, and the longest battleship took almost two hours to reach the other side of the galaxy.

Massive numbers are synthesized to replicate the situation of galaxies in a computer without any error.

Ye Fei, who had been paying attention to the progress of the exploration, felt that this place was like the neutron galaxy that was discovered in the Orion Nebula at the beginning, and asked very unexpectedly: "Old Xie, Betelgeuse has only exploded for more than 200 years, is it stabilizing too fast?" "Two hundred years is not even a moment on the cosmic scale of millions of years, how can a raging supernova, which will last for several months just by exploding, be completely stabilized in such a short period of time?

Professor Xie, who was analyzing the number jù, smiled bitterly: "I have never studied this subject, your question is really difficult for me, maybe the gravitational pull of neutron stars is strong, and the stability is faster." Speaking of this, his gaze suddenly froze, and he raised his head in surprise, "The mass of a pulsar is only one point and four times that of the sun?" How is it so little? Is there a mistake? ”

One point and four times the mass of the Sun is just above the mass floor of a neutron star, and a little lighter is a white dwarf instead of a neutron star. Betelgeuse was originally almost twenty times more massive than the Sun. Theoretically, it can even form a black hole, how can it almost turn a white dwarf?

"I'll see!" Ye Fei hurriedly flipped through the number records, and quickly came up with the answer, "That's right, the diameter is close to twenty kilometers, and it is indeed a small-mass neutron star!" ”

The explosion was a little too complete.

"This is really ......" Professor Xie didn't know what to say in order to express his chaotic mood, "What about the intensity of space radiation?" ”

Ye Fei immediately replied: "The radiation intensity is not low, but it is not as strong as expected, even if it is not equipped with the outer layer of lead shell." The armor of the battleship itself was also able to hold back. ”

"Did you find an overweight element?" Professor Xie continued to ask.

The explosion was so complete. It shows that the intensity of the explosion is relatively high, so a large number of heavy elements should be formed.

"Haven't found it yet." Ye Fei said honestly, "But I have also found a lot of good things." For example, the remnants of the planets. ”

"Oh? What's going on? Let's be specific! Professor Xie was immediately interested.

"How so?" Ye Fei hesitated for a moment before straightening out his thoughts. "We have found seven asteroids that could be planetary wreckage. The closest one to Betelgeuse is only more than 800 kilometers in diameter, and it can't even reach hydrostatic equilibrium, but its composition is basically metal. Fifty to sixty percent of it is heavy metals, and this thing is a great treasure! ”

"I see, what about the rest?" Professor Xie knew that there were not many galaxies with heavy elements, but he did not know how huge the country's demand for heavy elements was, just that the planetary wreckage could extract enough precious metals such as gold.

Since the Republic and the Shang clan entered a state of hostility, there is no interstellar civilization that can trade, and the payment role of gold is almost removed from this precious metal, but gold is also an important industrial raw material, and the demand for gold has been flourishing for a long time, and a large amount of gold is definitely a lot of wealth.

"Second Planet Wreckage ......" Ye Fei saw Professor Xie's questioning gaze and sighed, "I don't know if it's the second planet's wreckage, but its current orbit is the second planet!" ”

"Understand, continue." Professor Xie said noncommittally.

As a professional, he is extremely demanding in his academic pursuits.

"The situation of the second wreck is similar to that of the first wreckage, but the proportion of heavy elements is lower, less than 50 percent, but it is relatively massive, and it is clearing small objects from orbit, and it is very likely to become a dwarf planet in the future." Ye Fei combined the number jù to express his judgment.

Professor Xie was slightly stunned and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Captain Ye to also dabble in astronomy!" "Although the concept of removing small celestial bodies near orbit is only common knowledge in astronomy, not many ordinary people can say this common sense.

"I'm commanding a starship after all." The corners of Ye Fei's mouth curled and said, "Overall, the situation of the second wreck is much better than the first wreckage, and the situation of the third wreck is even better. ”

"It's normal, the farther the orbit, the less affected by the stars." Professor Xie said, "I think that in the process of the giant of Betelgeuse, at least three or four planets should have been swallowed, and the planets that were swallowed were all decomposed by the high temperature of the stars, and even the most heat-resistant metals could not be retained at thousands of degrees, let alone leave any debris." The first wreckage could be the fourth planet, or even the fifth. ”

"This is the scope of your research, those of us who are soldiers don't have the ability to research, and we don't care about this kind of thing." Ye Fei said with a smile, "I only know that Betelgeuse has a lot of planets, and at present, seven of them have been found in the suspected wreckage alone. ”

"All of them are wreckage with a particularly high content of heavy metals?"

"Basically." Ye Fei nodded, and suddenly the conversation changed, "Do you know the Orion Neutron Star?" ”

Professor Xie was stunned: "The one that turned into a black hole?" ”

"Yes, that's it."

"I've seen it in the materials." Professor Xie said, "What? ”

Ye Fei showed an emotional look: "I commanded the battleship to find the neutron star back then, there is a planet flowing with water and milky ways, have you heard of it?" ”

"Impressions...... I don't understand, what the hell are you trying to say? Professor Xie made Ye Fei confused.

"What I want to say is...... There's one here too. Ye Fei suddenly laughed very happily like a child who had succeeded in mischievous.

"Really?" Professor Xie's blood pressure suddenly rose, and his eyes were bloodshot like bulls in heat, "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that there was also a mercury star here!" Did you know that when I first saw the neutron galaxy data, the neutron galaxy had become a black hole? There are neutron stars, but this is the first time I've heard of mercury, and I've been depressed for months because I haven't been able to see the neutron galaxy for myself! (To be continued......)
