Chapter 741: Chapter 714 Encoding

"Reporting to command center, I have finished preparations for detonation; all personnel have been transferred to the safety zone and are ready to act at any moment!"

"Continue to stand by, execute as planned!"

"Yes!"

Deng Lei turned off the communication and continued to wait vigilantly at the control console.

Like the last time, except for the two astronauts who stayed behind at Yushu Base, all members above the lunar orbit donned their spacesuits as a precaution against unforeseen events.

It was known that the total yield of this explosion would exceed 80 million tons, the largest single detonation in human history, and 60% greater than the Big Ivan.

According to ground-based calculations, the intense electromagnetic pulse (EMP) generated by such a yield would last for more than 40 minutes, possibly up to an hour. Many detectors whose defensive measures were not stringent enough might be damaged, and all communication with the Moon would be severed after the explosion.
