Jack Wiseman Phase Two of Revival of Venus
Hello all Mr. Wiseman said as he stepped forward to begin explaining phase two of the ROV project.
Jack Wiseman had been Christina’s head consultant during the ten year antimatter research project.
His lecture began.
It is estimated that phase one will be accomplished in approximately fifteen years.
When Venus’ atmosphere is reduced to our start specifications, the second phase of ROV will begin.
Venus needs a moon. We’ve all had long debates on which moon in our solar system would be best suited for Venus once it’s atmosphere has began to be reduced.
We’ve considered Mercury in our intensive research but it has come to be known that there is a better alternative for Planet Venus than Mercury as a Venus moon.
That Moon would be Triton. Yes it would take longer to move Triton away from Neptune but Triton is the perfect size and has much nitrogen to be harvested for the atmosphere of Venus.
Triton’s diameter is approximately 1632 miles and would be put in orbit above Venus at about 220,000 miles around Venus.
In a 26 day orbit around Venus, Triton would cause a 21 degree tilt of Venus’ axis and cause Venus to have seasons.
Also, as Triton is carefully manipulated to within a half million miles of Venus, It will cause Planet Venus to reverse it’s magnetic poles opposite that of Triton and begin rotating slowly counter clockwise from its north pole like the majority of the planets in our solar system.
In the year, 2845, humanity will be at the point of starting the process of removing Triton from Neptune and gracefully beginning the next important phase of the 15 year journey of transporting the retrograde moon Triton to a specific 26 day Venus orbit around Venus of approximately 2464 miles per hour in a eastward direction.
It is well known that as Triton gets closer to the inner solar system, much of its nitrogen will vaporized and leave a trail of much needed nitrogen to be captured and inserted into the Venus atmosphere by cargo vessels.
It is intended along the slow Triton journey inward, to capture 60% of that trailing nitrogen and transport it in faster tanker ships to insert into the then much thinner atmosphere of Venus.
After inserting ice asteroids into Venus, Oxygen will also be converted from carbon dioxide to begin the introduction of oxygen into the Venus atmosphere.
The Triton Moon should arrive in the year of approximately 2860.
After Triton is inserted in orbit around Venus, phase three of the ROV project will be put into operation in the year of 2861.
Here again now is Professor Omagus to give you the details of the spin up Process of Planet Venus after all of this has been completed.
Chapter 8
Phase 3 Why Triton was Chosen
Professor Omagus stepped forward again with a round of applause from the audience.
Firstly he began, we need to explain why we chose Triton for the Venus Moon instead of any other potential candidate. So here are some facts about Triton that may not be known to some here.
Triton is the largest moon of Neptune. It was discovered in the year 1846 by astronomer William Lassell. Triton is the only known moon in the solar system with a retrograde orbit. That means it orbits in the opposite direction that the Planet Neptune rotates on its axis.
History surmises that Triton was once a rogue body that was captured by Neptune as it entered the solar system. Possibly a collision with another ice moon even caused the rings that Neptune displays.
Triton is 2710 kilometers or 1680 miles in diameter. Its gravity is only 8% of Earth’s and smaller than Earth’s Moon and we astronomers consider it the perfect size body to be inserted in orbit of Venus.
Because of its retrograde revolve of Neptune and composition similar to Pluto, it is assumed to be a dwarf planet captured from the Kuiper belt.
In the Voyager 2 flyby in the year 1989, it was discovered that its surface consisted of mostly frozen nitrogen with a percentage of water ice below the surface.
It was ascertained in those days that below that was a rocky surface with a substantial metal core that is tidally locked to Neptune as it revolves retrograde to Neptune’s spin once every 5.6 earth days.
Surface temperatures recorded by Voyager 2 in those days were measured to be extremely cold at -235 degrees C and that equals to -391 degrees below zero Fahrenheit.
It is postulated that in three and a half billion years or so if left unchanged, Triton will approach too close to Neptune’s Roche limit and be torn apart by gravitational forces.
Triton is also know to be one of the few moons in the solar system to be geologically active and sublimating nitrogen into its atmosphere from active geysers.
Triton’s surface has very few impact craters. Its atmospheric pressure is less than one percent of earth’s pressure.
Voyager 2 only was able to map about 40 percent of the surface in its long ago rapid flyby.
Triton was named in 1880 after the Greek sea god Triton the son of Poseidon.
Triton’s retrograde orbit is already closer to Neptune than Earth’s Moon is to Earth. Like I said earlier that in 3.6 billion years from now, Triton will pass within Neptune’s Roche limit. That day will result in a collision or break up of the moon and possibly cause a ring system similar to the planet Saturn.
So, Omagus began concluding his lecture on Triton’s history and properties. Rightly, we are also rescuing Triton from a far away future catastrophe and using it to help stabilize the Planet Venus.
With that said, I now call to the front to explain phase three of ROV that is scheduled to begin in 2861 an esteem scientist, Doctor Jessica Gulasky
More ovations occurred as Jessica approached the lectern to began her summary of the planned phase three ROV Project
Chapter 9
Jessica Gulasky Phase 3 of ROV
Hello I’m Jessica Gulasky and I’m here to tell you about Phase 3 of ROV that should begin around the year 2861.
Once Triton is placed into a stable Venus orbit in Phase 2, We will soon begin the process of speeding up the rotation rate of Planet Venus.
Since Triton is placed in it’s orbit that process alone will have caused Venus to reverse its poles and begin rotating slowly counter clockwise. Triton itself will have caused Venus’ rotation speed to have increased slightly but nowhere near enough to cancel its slow spin and long solar days.
Firstly in phase three, Humanity will begin with a fleet of R-A equipped ships to be employed to begin the rotation rate spin up by applying equal but opposite force below the surface equator of Venus on both sides in simultaneous pulses.
A fine tuned 15 percent three second powerful repulse beam will be focused on Venus’ iron core from both sides of the equator in opposite directions continuously every earth hour for a total of ten earth years. The end plan is to speed Venus’ rotation rate up to spin once every twenty four hours similar to Earth’s rotation.
Once Venus has gained similar earth rotation speed its magnetosphere will have engaged to protect the surface from harmful solar radiation. This speed up is being done gradually to allow Venus to acclimate slowly to the rotation rate increase.
In the beginning, Venus is rotating so slowly that a fast walking pace walking west away from sunrise and never see the sun’s position change at early dawn. It rotates counter clockwise in the beginning at a spin rate of approximately seven miles per hour.
Ten earth days combined repulse rate from R-A ships will cause the rotation rate to increase only by one mile per hour for each 10 earth days repulse time.
The total speed increase rate after ten years of R-A pulses, will bring Venus’ rotation rate up to approximately one thousand miles per hour.
An esteem scientist from the
immediate audience interrupted Professor Gulasky with a question about Triton’s long journey and what the facts were about the time it would take to bring the rouge Neptune moon to Venus.
Great question she retorted.
Here are the planned details.
Firstly, Neptune is approximately 2,898,300,000 miles away from planet Venus. That is indeed a great distance. In words that’s two billion, eight hundred ninety eight million, three hundred thousand miles.
So, in order to transport Triton to Venus over a 15 year time span, Triton would have to made to have an approximate travel rate of 6.12 miles per second average speed. There’s 5475 earth day rotations in 15 years.
That means that Triton will have to cover a distance in one earth rotation of 529,370 miles per 24 hours. So when we divide that number by 24 hours in a rotation, we come up with a speed of approximately 22,058 miles per hour.
If we divide that number by 60 we get a speed of 367.6 miles per minute. One more division by 60 gives us a speed of 6.12 miles per second.
So, that’s the speed that Triton will have to continuously travel in order to make it to Venus in 5475 days or approximately 15 earth years time.
Triton itself is traveling approximately 1.5 miles per second in its orbit speed around Neptune. Triton travels 30% above and below Neptune’s equatorial ecliptic as it journeys retrograde to the fast rotation of Neptune.
Once every 5.8 Earth days, Triton completes its revolve journey orbit around Neptune of a total distance of approximately 780.000 thousand miles travel in one orbit.
Triton is tidally locked to Neptune and always keeps the same face towards Neptune as it makes one single orbit.
Professor Gulasky began her conclusion statements with a few words of wisdom of her own.
This worthy project called ROV or Revival of Venus, is the most massive project that humankind has ever undertaken. I professor Gulasky, predict that this worthy colossal project will be accomplished in 50 or 60 years time and by that time, she concluded with passionate retort, Planet Venus will be beginning to be habitable for humans to live upon its surface.
That’s the ultimate long term goal here. To create another planet similar and near to Earth to help relieve Earth of its over 50 billion humankind overpopulation.
The outer bases and Mars cities are supporting a few thousand souls but we know that earth’s population will increase by billions in future centuries and Planet Venus once revived, will only be a 44 day journey at opposition away at Earth’s escape velocity of 7 miles per second.
It’s just the logical thing to do for future generations to set our goal this day to immediately begin this worthy task of ROV.
Thanks to the discovery of ARAE, Our fleet of ships are equipped and ready to begin the ROV project as soon as this Astronomy Council votes this very day.
Vote they did in a landslide election vote. The vote was unanimous to begin ROV in the immediate future. Earth’s population had grown to dangerous levels and in 50 years or so, if Venus is not revived the population of Earth would have exploded even further.
It was 2826 before the ROV Project got into full swing and began their dispatching of R-A equipped ships to begin the process of removing Venus’ excess atmosphere.
These R-A tug ship brigades consisted of three squadrons of 15 ships each to handle several stages of the project as it became necessary in the 60 year long ROV project.
Chapter 10
July 29th, 2826 Phase One Begins
The first brigade squadron of 15 tug ships were launched towards Venus to begin the process of thinning the atmosphere of Planet Venus.
Venus was at it’s nine o’clock orbital position inside Earth’s orbit that day that the brigade one was launched.
Brigade one will arrive coasting at Venus in 44 earth days and immediately orbit the planet and take up their control positions approximately 500 kilometers or 310.6 miles in orbit above Venus. That’s just above the top of Venus’ thick atmosphere.
That same day squadron team two and three were launched in the direction that Neptune would be in its orbit in a few years time.
As soon as those 30 ships arrive at Neptune, they will begin the set up of an immediate base around Triton that would take nearly six month’s preparation before Triton will be stolen away from Neptune’s gravity well and begin its 15 year journey towards Venus.
Upon arrival at Venus, Brigade One will lock three of their triangle fifty meter length sides together and be used as a control base station to monitor the process of the other 12 ships in beginning the process of eliminating volatile gasses out of the hot planet’s atmosphere.
Each ship in each brigade had fifteen humans aboard to begin the biggest project ever attempted by humanity. The Revival of Venus.
September 30 2826, Fifteen arrow head triangle ships approached Venus’ gravity well in a straight line at a slowed speed of 18,000 miles per hour.
Three of the center ships broke away and locked together and departed the line in a specific direction that fell into Venus orbit at 500 miles or 804.6 kilometers above Venus.
Twelve vessels fell in closer just above the top of Venus’ 300 mile high atmosphere. Within days, the 12 ships began the process of eliminating the top of the atmosphere with their R-A focused repulse beams.
The repulse beams were focused at a angle so that the unwanted gases were pushed inwards towards the Sun.
As the 12 repulser ships each in their specific orbit vector, each fired a three second blast to the top of Venus’ atmosphere focused at first on the high carbon dioxide content.
That process alone would take the next 5 years just to bring down the atmosphere by 20% so the next five year phase could begin.
After 5 years of carbon dioxide removal, Venus is predicted to have it’s surface temperature to have cooled down to approximately 500 degrees Fahrenheit. That’s predicted to be a good start in the ROV program.
The second 5 year phase, would then focus their efforts on removing the deadly to humans sulphuric acid from Venus’ hostile atmosphere.
Fast transporting Nitrogen cargo ships from Tritons inward nitrogen capture journey, would also be introduced into Venus’ atmosphere in place of the vicious acid that would be removed and ejected towards the Sun.
After 5 more years of phase 2, the Venus atmosphere’s temperature is predicted to have dropped to approximately 300 degrees Fahrenheit on the surface.
Phase 3 will begin as soon as Venus’ new Moon Triton is 5 years away in it’s journey.
The Venus base station will then begin the process of converted captured carbon dioxide into oxygen and inserting the human necessity gas into Venus’ slowly cooling atmosphere.
Chapter 11
July 27th, 2841 Arrival at Neptune
Two squads of 15 each R-A equipped ships approached Neptune and slowed to proper approach orbit speed.
Compared to Neptune’s 30,499 mile fast spinning diameter, Triton appeared tiny ahead as the triangle shaped armada of thirty ships that approached the moon in the opposite direction of Neptune’s fast counter clockwise spin.
Here at Neptune, which is indeed the farthest gas giant planet from the sun and at almost 2.8 billion miles from Earth two R-A armed brigades of 15 each began matching Triton’s speed and began setting up a base in orbit around Triton for the humongous undertaking ahead.
Six of the thirty ships departed their brigade position and locked together in a higher orbit to form the Triton orbital base station.
Triton Base would be receiving antimatter fuel supply from Earth on a regular scheduled basis and after unloading their fuel supply, the cargo ships would purge their containers and reload with Nitrogen from Triton’s atmosphere and haul their gaseous cargo back to supply Venus’ atmosphere. Neptune is the smallest of the gas giants.
Mysteriously though, Neptune’s gravity is only slightly more
than the gravity of Earth. Uranus is much larger in size than Neptune but Neptune contains more mass than Uranus.
Neptune’s atmosphere is full of ice clouds that sail around the planet at tremendous speeds. Winds have been measured at 1,300 mph. Neptune’s extreme cold temperature has been measured at -367 degrees Fahrenheit
Neptune is the coldest known gas giant in the solar system. Neptune is so cold that any human would flash freeze at that temperature.
Below its cold atmosphere that consist of mostly hydrogen, helium and a little methane, a flash frozen human if still consciously alive would sink into oblivion. Your surroundings would get warmer as you sank lower but a human would never sink to Neptune’s postulated rocky core.
Therefore, your forever dead remains would weigh a tiny bit more than it would if the human had died on Earth.
Chapter 12
Tritons Escape from Neptune
By the year’s end of December 30th, 2842 Triton’s retrieval process was in place and ready to remove Triton from Neptune’s gravity well.
Twelve R-A equipped ships circled Triton at a fifty degree angle above its equator and twelve more ships circled at 50 degrees angle below the equator of Triton.
Triton was already speeding around Neptune at approximately at 1.6 mps or 2.57 kps.
It was planned that in order to grab Triton from it’s orbit, pressure and speed from it’s farthest distance from the sun is when the moon would have to be speeded up in its orbital escape velocity of 5.5 mps or a little over 8.8 kps.
From the backside of Neptune, 24 R-A equipped ships will each beamed their powerful repulser at Tritons inner core in order to speed the moon up to the required escape velocity.
In a few earth hours time, Triton will come around Neptune’s leading edge as the Moon was now traveling at 5.8 miles per second or 9.3 kps as it slowly pulled away from Neptune’s reverse spinning forward revolving grip.
