Half-immortal civilization
Chapter 1009 Space "Layer" Plane
Zhou Qing stood beside Zhang Jingyuan, quietly observing the exploration situation.Among the expedition team, only Zhou Qing was the most suitable, let's not talk about anything else, just the image problem, let the old smoke scars and wooden piles be excluded.Not to mention that Zhou Qing also understands space technology, so he is a very good representative!
"Wow..." Another batch of detectors was damaged again. After discovering this wormhole, everyone began to compete. This is already the third batch of detectors.The detection of wormholes has still not made any progress, and every time a special distance is detected, the detector will be damaged.This is caused by the huge space pressure and the agitation of the space-time vortex.
Exploring the space-time vortex is not easy, not as simple as we look at a vortex.First of all, the universe is inherently dark and without light, and the space-time vortex itself is also a fluctuation at the spatial level, which is invisible to the naked eye.Just like the magnetic field of the earth, we cannot directly observe it without special instruments and computer graphics.
At this moment, there is a three-dimensional projection in front of Zhang Jingyuan and others, which is a projection of a wormhole.This projection is marked with a size ratio: 1 cm = 100 million kilometers.The diameter of the current wormhole is more than one meter, which means that its actual influence is enough to exceed [-] million kilometers. According to the diameter, it is almost equivalent to the orbit diameter of Mercury.And the height is as much as half a meter!Like the shape of a thumbtack, except that it's broken in the middle of the tip - here, it hasn't been explored yet.
Because three consecutive waves of detectors were damaged, the subsequent data was also blurred, and human exploration was temporarily impossible.We can only wait for the technology department behind.
"Swipe..." The teleportation array lights up. In this spaceship with a size of hundreds of kilometers, using the teleportation array is a very convenient way of communication; an old man with white hair came out.
"Principal?" Zhou Qing exclaimed.The person who came was Zhang Qi, the principal of the Empire Second Space Technology Academy.The same as decades ago, it still looks old, but if you look closely, you can see that the old man has a ruddy complexion, which is comparable to a young man!
"Zhou Qing?" Zhang Qi looked at Zhou Qing beside Zhang Jingyuan with a look of surprise on his face. The old principal personally approved the young man's graduation certificate. "Did you discover this wormhole?"
"No. It was discovered by our team. In fact, we only thought it was an ordinary space-time vortex at first."
"Good! In the future, your portrait will be hung in the academy!" The old principal praised.The portrait is not a photo of you, but a person who has made great contributions to society, and a special national-level artist draws it himself.Then hang it among the various colleges.But only one is authentic.The rest are photocopied reproductions; as for the portraits, they are authentic.Of course, it is suspended in the graduate school, which has become a non-compliance rule.
"..." Zhou Qing opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
"Haha..." The old professor patted Zhou Qing on the shoulder.He didn't say anything more.Then he bowed his hands to Zhang Jingyuan, "Taizu."
"Ready?" Zhang Jingyuan didn't care too much about other things. After all, this person is also his descendant.Some people jokingly exaggerated: Today, one in ten thousand people with the surname Zhang in Huaxia has a blood relationship with Zhang Jingyuan; that is, there are tens of billions of people who are related to Zhang Jingyuan.Although this is an exaggeration, it also illustrates the impact of the national surname on social development.There are even some family planets, the entire planet has one surname!For example, the planets of Zhang Jingyuan and his brothers.
"Get ready! Don't worry about what I'm going to do! Let's go to the laboratory, where there are receiving devices and a perfect computer array." Zhang Qi chuckled, he didn't look like the majestic principal, but an old urchin.But just now, the old teacher is modifying a new detector in the laboratory, a detector made of degenerate materials with a honeycomb structure.As mentioned earlier, such a material structure is directly constructed from the atomic nucleus or even protons and neutrons. However, because of the honeycomb structure, the density of the material is not as exaggerated as tens of thousands, but only 15 ( The density of water), and its firmness, crushing diamonds is like tofu.Nowadays, ordinary detectors have failed continuously, so such materials have to be used; but such materials are difficult to process, and their value is inestimable.
The laboratory here is located at the back of the center of the spaceship, and is the best defense; the laboratory itself is designed as an escape cabin inside the ship. Once the spaceship is in danger, the laboratory and scientific research personnel will be given priority to be protected.
The laboratory is over a thousand meters long, dozens of meters high, and hundreds of meters wide. The core computer array is a tiny model of Destiny Computer, covering an area of [-] square meters. The computing power is far beyond that of civilian computers.
Soon, new probes are sent again.This time there is only one, but it is ten meters in size. The whole body is made of new materials, and every fragile core, such as a computer, is wrapped with degenerate materials, and then the entire detector is protected by virtual physics technology. stand up.
In terms of exploration, Huaxia prefers virtual physical protection, because it is colorless and invisible, which is conducive to the work of detectors.
The ten-meter-sized detector is so inconspicuous in the universe, it wobbles towards the space-time vortex, and finally flies slowly along the trajectory ahead.
"Calculating time and space, time is accelerating, accelerating...one billionth, three billionths, two millionths..."
"Calculation of space-time distortion...invariant! Invariant?" A scientist suddenly widened his eyes, "Why is it unchanged? Is the wormhole clearly shrinking! Oh, I understand! It turns out that the space is shrinking in proportion! That is Said, although we can see that the upper part of this wormhole has an influence of more than [-] million kilometers, and the entrance of the core reaches tens of thousands of kilometers, and the wormhole is constantly getting thinner downwards. Hundreds of kilometers; but the interior of the wormhole is always a space of tens of thousands of kilometers.
This is a secret of space, inside is inside, outside is outside!Wow, if it can be cracked, using this technology, we can combine it with small space technology to achieve space compression!Just being able to not crack this technology is enough to make our space technology go a step further, and can compress a space of tens of meters into a portable backpack! "
Scientists kept screaming with joy, and everyone was excited by the miracles they saw.
"Everyone, prepare, prepare! The detector is about to cross the danger line!" Zhang Qi roared.
I only saw that in the virtual wormhole model, a red light spot was approaching the death limit of the three groups of detectors in front.Swipe... the screen was blurred for a while, and then became clear.
"The flow of time has reached, uh... the time flow of one ten thousandth of the standard cosmic space, one ten thousandth, and it is still slowing down... The speed here is so slow. There is nothing around, and the signal from the detector is not going on. Come back... late , the probe has lost contact."
"Look at the data model!" Zhang Qi shouted in surprise.
At this time, everyone was surprised to find that with the support of a small amount of data, the computer was frantically calculating and deriving.Then a new, asymmetric model appeared!
This model is like two thumbtacks facing each other. The previous death line is the position of the needle tip, and it is also the smallest position of the wormhole.But after this point, there is another even bigger "pushpin", which is more than ten times the size of this side.
"Wormhole! This is a wormhole!" Everyone cheered, and some even shed tears of excitement.
"In the final detection, the detector signal completely disappeared, and no signal was received within a light-year radius!" Zhang Qi was operating. "The next step is to scan signals within a radius of 10 light-years. A full scan of ten light-years will take at least three months to complete. It is recommended that the reality be postponed, and we first explore the current situation."
"Obviously, this is a different space! Is it another universe?" Everyone was still excited, trembling with excitement as they walked.
"Yeah." Principal Zhang Qi suddenly walked up to Zhou Qing, "Zhou Qing, what do you think? Come on, tell us, don't be afraid, scientists often make mistakes. Mistakes are also the ladder of progress!"
"Ah...Okay, thank you principal. That kid made a fool of himself.
I think this might be the fabled subspace.I have always had a guess that our universe is like a layer cake, but the time and space between each layer are different, and there is even relative movement.This movement is caused by the difference in time, the direction of the movement of the universe, and so on.
If we can enter another universe and then come back to our universe, we can travel across space.In fact, such conjectures have always been there, but no evidence has ever been found.
But this time is different, let us find the evidence, which is the wormhole.But again, in my opinion, the wormhole itself is a defect in the space-time of the universe, which may be the result of the relative movement of two cosmic levels. The time of this wormhole may not be too long, but it should not be too short. .But no matter what, we should hurry up and explore! "
"Good boy, not bad. The idea is very creative. Two universes, moving with each other? Well, if this is the case, then it is really wonderful. The puff pastry universe? Does the universe have primary and secondary?"
"I don't think it can be determined for the time being. Maybe it's like a puff pastry. It doesn't matter what is the priority. Everyone is very similar, but the position is different. It may also be like an onion, which has an inside and an outside. There are many situations. We need to carefully verify and calculate carefully. , boldly seek proof."
"Good boy, come and be my assistant." Zhang Qi looked at Zhou Qing with satisfaction.
"Ah... yes, yes! Thank you principal, thank you very much principal." Zhou Qing nodded fiercely. (To be continued..)
