Chapter 14 - Secret Project-2

As the huge ring began to rotate rapidly, changes also appeared on the huge screen in the operating room. A new picture appeared on the screen, Alex just glanced at it, and his heart was shocked.

Alex is very familiar with this scene. In the past three years of work, Alex did not know how many times he had watched it.

What the picture showed was something like magma, and just by looking at it, you could feel the amazing heat contained in it. There is no doubt that the picture has been extinguished many times, so it looks like a scorched yellow mixed with dark red color, and something that seems to be gas is constantly rising from it. Sometimes, those things that seem to be gas will connect into a ring in mid-air, and then be torn apart by the huge force that seems to be the airflow, then connect again, and then be torn apart, and so on.

This is clearly a photo of the surface of the sun! But why does it appear here now?

"The real-time rotation speed is 1,135 revolutions per second, and the real-time temperature is 5,867 Kelvin. At this moment, "Apollo" has reached the level of gravity and temperature on the surface of the sun." The researcher who operated the computer lit a cigarette, exhaled a puff of smoke, and said to Alex.

Alex already understood something at this moment, so he nodded to the scientist.

"Alex...I know about you." The scientist said, "I am a member of the scientific research department of the Crisis Coordination and Handling Center. My name is Han Shui. I was borrowed by the psychology team that specializes in Brad to help them figure out some things. "

"Then have you figured it out?" Alex asked.

"I figured it out." Han Shui pointed to the huge fast-turning ring on the screen and the photo of the sun's surface in the lower right corner of the screen. "That's all."

"Director Brad has been studying this some time ago? But what does simulating the sun's surface environment have to do with... Director Brad's last words?"

This quirky instrument simulates the environment on the surface of the sun. With the help of the centrifugal force generated by the extremely high rotational speed, a huge gravity that can even be comparable to the surface of the sun will be generated inside the instrument, and then the temperature and magnetic field of the surface of the sun can be simulated through the electromagnetic heating system outside the ring and the magnetic field simulator. With gravity and temperature and magnetic fields, along with some other fine-tuning of the instrument, it is possible to simulate the surface of the sun with at least 95 percent realism.

There is no doubt that this instrument is of great usefulness. With this instrument, scientists can measure material properties on a surface similar to the real sun, simulate solar activity, and even study the interior of the sun. It's really useful. Before dying, Brad operated alone here for more than a year. It can be said that all of Brad's energy before his death was put on this instrument. But... what does this have to do with Brad's last words?

"I don't know." Han Shui shook his head, "This is the question that the psychology team wants to study, and I'm only responsible for telling them what the instrument is useful for and evaluating the data it produces for a stellar physicist. what does it mean."

Alex was silent. After a while, Alex asked, "Can you give me a copy of your evaluation results?"

Han Shui said very simply: "Yes. I have been notified and will give you the greatest support within my ability. If you need me to assist you in your research on the physical environment of the sun's surface, I can come to you immediately. Come and report."

"No, no need." Alex shook his head, "I just want to know what Director Brad is doing and why..."

"Every one of us wants to know." After saying this, Han Shui paused, and then continued: "Young man, at least half of the fate of mankind is in your hands. Your work is very important."

Alex smiled bitterly. This feeling is very bad. Everyone knows that Alex is very important, and Alex also knows that he is very important, but what is the important reason? What is the key to solving all mysteries?

Alex came behind Han Shui and looked at the beating data on the computer monitor. Alex is also very familiar with these data, which are nothing more than some measures of certain physical quantities on the surface of the sun.

After looking at it for a while, Alex discovered something strange. So, Alex pointed to one of the data and asked: "High-precision light intensity detector? ... How can the accuracy be so high? Is it necessary to have such high accuracy?"

"It's not necessary." Han Shui said bluntly, "But this is what Brad asked to install. As for why, we don't know."
