"There are only 1 hour and 52 minutes left before the igniter hits Mars."

In space, the 'igniter' asteroid, which is flying at high speed, is flying towards Mars at high speed. After the mechanical column completed the predetermined trajectory correction of the 'igniter', it was also flying with the 'igniter'.

Outside Mars, the three space planes Tiannu, Shennu and Tianyi have loaded the necessary things and arrived at the predetermined location to wait.

Everything is going on according to the Mars transformation plan.

On the holographic platform of the laboratory, images of the movement of the two planets were also projected, as well as virtual orbits of their orbits.

The purpose of this impact is to cause the liquid layer of the Martian mantle to flow, and the molten iron water in the star to flow, causing friction and subsidence convection with the solid metal ball in the core, thereby activating the Martian magnetic field.

Now that the preparations are complete, we just have to wait for the asteroid to hit Mars in 1 hour and 50 minutes.

After recalculating the orbit and confirming that there was no problem with the orbit, Chen Mo sat on the chair and began to wait.

Zhao Min and Xiao Yu were also present, sitting next to Chen Mo and waiting quietly. They are one of the few people who really know about the Mars project and are now ready to witness this historical moment.

Mars, which is far away in the fourth position in the solar system, has some important detectors equipped with ion thrusters. After receiving the command, they immediately stopped working, turned on the thrusters, escaped from the surface of Mars, and entered the Martian space.

An hour and a half passed quickly, and the time for the 'igniter' to hit Mars was getting closer and closer.

"The igniter is about to hit Mars, and the mechanical column will fly away from it."

Following the instructions of the built-in artificial intelligence, the mechanical column flying around the igniter asteroid began to slow down, leaving the range of the igniter asteroid and staying outside space.

The crash begins.

An unprecedented artificially controlled asteroid impact on the planet is beginning.

Outside space, a huge asteroid can be seen falling towards the equatorial orbit of Mars at high speed.

boom! !

A huge earthquake shook the entire Mars. Mars was like a shaken egg. The molten iron inside the planet that was close to solidification accelerated at that moment.

The sea of fire spread at a crazy speed and submerged the entire Mars. The sleeping volcano erupted at that moment, the thick smoke ejected covered the sky and the sun, and the magma flowed.

The flow of liquid layers deep in the earth's crust causes major earthquakes, accompanied by ground collapse and mountain uplift. The underground liquid water ice layer was exposed, and instantly turned into white mist, and the water vapor transpired.

It was as if a tragic song from the depths of the long river of time was echoing in my ears. Mars, which had been sleeping for hundreds of millions of years, woke up at this moment and hummed softly, tragically and passionately.

In the laboratory, various video data transmitted from the Mars satellite were being played. It was like a doomsday scene, which shocked Zhao Min and Xiaoyu. They felt moved and joyful from the depths of their souls.

They seemed to see the starting point of the creation of the world by the gods.

"Mars magnetic field detected."

Mo Nu's voice was like the sound of nature, which made Chen Mo loosen his tightly clenched fists and let out a sigh of relief unconsciously. At this moment, he felt a sublimation from the depths of his soul, and there was an indescribable aura in his temperament.

The Mars magnetic field was successfully activated.

This is just the beginning.

Looking at the data sent back by the satellite, the Martian magnetic field has not yet reached the required strength.

"Deploy the planetary bomb according to the plan." Chen Mo breathed out.

Earthquakes and super volcanic eruptions on Mars continue. Smoke, dust and gas cover the entire planet, and lightning can occasionally be seen.

The Tiannyu has been waiting in the orbit of Mars for a long time. After receiving the instruction from the earth, the second step of the instruction was initiated. The time has come to add a ladle of water to the already boiling oil pot of Mars.

Planetary bombs, as the name suggests, are used to blow up planets. A super nuclear fusion bomb using helium-3 as fuel has enough power to destroy an island country. More powerful planetary bombs can be created if needed.

For the sake of safety, Chen Mo designed the planetary bomb into two parts. The core and ignition device were separated to avoid accidents. They could be combined again when needed.

Now is the time to use it.

The planetary bomb has been assembled in Tiannu and is now ready to be dropped at the location of the asteroid impact to accelerate the activity of liquid movement inside Mars. Let the intensity of Mars' magnetic field increase and the crustal activity become more active.

As long as Mars is not blown up or the yield is too high, there won't be much of a problem.

Ten planetary bombs placed in appropriate locations will be more beneficial to the transformation of Mars.

The planetary bomb with a diameter of two meters was thrown from the Tiannu. Driven by the ion engine, it flew rapidly towards the location where the asteroid hit Mars.

Boom boom boom…

Ten terrifying explosions swept across the entire asteroid impact crater, like pouring a ladle of water into a pan. The landslides and the ground cracked, and the surrounding volcanoes erupted even more crazily.

Mars' magnetic field is strengthening.

Still somewhat useful.

If necessary, Chen Mo can let the Tiannu drop ten more, but it is enough now.

Over the past five years, the necessary technology has been prepared, and we are just waiting for the asteroid to successfully activate Mars' magnetic field.

Chen Mo looked at the Mars image sent back.

"Mo Nu, now set up an advanced climate control satellite network system for Mars."

The advanced climate control satellite network system is not a weather satellite in the traditional sense, but a satellite network that can control the weather.

By deploying satellites carrying high-efficiency lasers to influence the Martian magnetosphere and cosmic radiation to control temperature, combined with ultrasonic satellites and electromagnetic satellites deployed in the atmosphere, a complete climate control system is formed to induce thunder, cloud seeding, and rainmaking.

If Mars is allowed to evolve and cool confidently, it will take several years. Therefore, Chen Mo had to use this method to accelerate the cooling of the surface of Mars.

However, the number of satellites is a bit too large, more than 10,000, with different heights and different functions, covering the entire Martian space.

In order to avoid accidents caused by the impact of an asteroid, Chen Mo chose to network the climate control system only after the asteroid successfully impacted Mars.

This kind of climate weapon is very scary and can cause big troubles. There are already international precedents, so the International Convention on the Prohibition of Environmental Modification Technologies has long been in place to restrict the development of similar technologies.

Chen Mo will not use this technology on earth.

The earth now does not use climate control technology at all. It has a complete weather system and atmospheric evolution.

"The next step is to wait." Chen Mo said.

"For Mars, this project is the same as Pangu opening up the sky, and you are that 'Pangu'." Zhao Min finally couldn't help but marvel, and the shock had not yet subsided.

Such inhuman means were something she would never have imagined a few years ago when Chen Mo proposed transforming the planet. But the scene she saw today, even though she was well-informed and mentally prepared, she was still deeply shocked.

To a certain extent, Chen Mo's methods are as good as those of gods.

Hearing Zhao Min's exclamation, Xiao Yu was convinced and looked at Chen Mo with almost radiant eyes.

At the moment when the asteroid hit Mars and successfully stimulated the Martian magnetic field, Xiao Yu felt a change in Chen Mo, a change in temperament and psychology. At that moment, Xiao Yu really saw a god-like aura from Chen Mo. Now Chen Mo was even more handsome and had an extra layer of mysterious temperament.

"How long will it take to complete the transformation?" Xiaoyu asked.

"It's unclear. Only when the climate control system network is completed can the cooling of the Mars surface be accelerated. After cooling, it needs to modify the soil, purify the water quality, modify the atmosphere, and plant vegetation to achieve conditions livable for humans. This requires a process."

Chen Mo looked at the Mars in the video, where the sky was shrouded in volcanic ash and various gases. Today's Mars has long been changed beyond recognition, with no trace of its past.
