What Lin Shanshan couldn't imagine was why her mother was so obsessed with nothing. But it's okay, in this case, it will be beneficial for them to go to space, and they will support her to go out without worry.

Lin Shanshan was in a very good mood, returned to the unit, watched the video sent back by Tianhua Xiaozhi in the laboratory, and said: "You are all here, I announce to everyone that I, Lin Shanshan, have signed up." ”

"Oh, so smooth, your parents don't object?" Mr. Xu said.

"How can there be such a stubborn person as your mother, Chen Jie is right, people who believe in Buddhism, when they heard me say that I am going to heaven, they have no objection, and they encourage me when I go to save people. Lin Shanshan glanced at Xu Jiawei, originally she and Xu Jiawei had no thoughts about each other, and it was a little strange to be so little by her mother that she saw him.

"Huh. Chen Jie just smiled and didn't express his opinion.

"Yes, congratulations. Xu Jiawei said, "Now I am the most unbearable." ”

"Heh, you've had times like that. Lin Shanshan said.

"But my determination is the strongest, and my family's opposition is invalid, as long as I can be elected, I will definitely go. Xu Jiawei said.

"No, you're wrong, you say that as if our resolve is not strong. Ma Biao said.

"That's right, it's not that we're not strong, it's just that we don't have resistance, unlike a master in your family who doesn't make sense. In ancient times, there was a gentleman named Ma Biao who was right, everything is relative, the good will not be good at everything, and the bad will not be bad at everything. Your family conditions are too good, your life is too happy, but there is no freedom, we don't have you this condition, and the degree of freedom is relatively high. This is very much in line with the theory that good and bad are interdependent. Lin Shanshan said.

"Haha, Shanshan is in a good mood today, and she speaks much more funny, like a different person. Ma Biao said.

"Don't be complacent, who will be able to go when the time comes. Xu Jiawei said.

"Hmph, including yourself, there are so many people competing on the same stage across the country, and you don't necessarily have many advantages, maybe you will waste someone's heart and mind. Lin Shanshan said with a smile, smiling a little sweetly.

"We'll see. Xu Jiawei said.

"You said, if all four of us are elected, will the professor be released?" Chen Jie said.

"Let's go, definitely let go, our professor is a very reasonable person, although he is reluctant, but he will consider the overall situation and let us go. Xu Jiawei said with certainty.

Half a month later, the registration ended, and all four of them passed the primary election, and then they went to the National Astronomical Academy for training. Professor Shen Wei personally sent them off, saying, "I'm glad that you are all candidates for the lucky three-to-one, and I wish you good luck." ”

"Professor, I'm sorry, but you have to bear the burden of the laboratory this month. But it's good for you to preview first, so that you won't be used to it for a while when we go to space. Xu Jiawei said with a smile.

"Hmph, the thought of hopefully going to space makes you feel so good. Who told you all to be so good. I have been temporarily sent a few assistants from the office, so you can go with confidence. Professor Shen Wei said.

The disciples all went, and Professor Shen Wei sat alone in the laboratory, watching the video sent back by Tianhua Xiaozhi for a while, and didn't find anything special. On weekdays, the four disciples were close to him, and as long as it was not academic research and formal meetings, they did not regard him as a professor, but only as a friend, and spoke without scruples. He also likes this group of disciples very much, all of them are very good, especially Xu Jiawei, Lin Shanshan, and Ma Biao, who have a certain reputation in the domestic astronomical community, and have also emerged in the world astronomical community. Once they are sent to the end of the sky, they are really a little reluctant, but it is not a good thing for themselves and the astronomical career.

When the rescue operation was discussed in the conference room of the National Astronomical Academy that day, the objection was that the distance was too far, and with the current flight technology and speed, even if it could be successfully rescued, it would be a very distant future, and there was no point in rescuing it. The favorable opinion is that we cannot only look at the current speed of flight, there are accelerations in the universe, and as long as these accelerations are fully utilized, the time to return will not be too far away. Professor Shen Wei advocates taking them back, although he may not be able to watch them come back in his lifetime, he is in his 50s this year, even if he can live to be more than 150 years old, he only has 100 years, and the possibility of coming back in 100 years is indeed almost none, but the success does not have to be in me, and it is already very satisfying to see the end of the sky in the video. Professor Shen Wei's first reaction when he saw the news of the end of the sky was to pick it up, because he found in his research that out of the solar system, the speed of the spacecraft will become faster and faster, and now the speed of 100 times the speed of light will accelerate rapidly in outer space, so that it can theoretically reach infinite speed. This is based on several comprehensive considerations, one is the Z-3A material of the spacecraft itself, which has an automatic acceleration function. The second is that the movement of the universe itself causes the speed of the spacecraft to fly faster and faster. Third, just as Xu Jiawei said about the gravitational source in the universe, he found a strange phenomenon 100 light years away, interstellar matter flickered and flickered, the mobility is amazing, and there is no black hole here, he estimates that it is a place where a huge gravitational source is hidden, and there should be more such places in the universe. The third is the gravitational pull of stars, and the fourth is the gravitational pull of black holes. Professor Shen Wei optimistically estimates that by the time the end of the day is reached, the spacecraft may accelerate to a speed of 100 million light years.

Professor Shen Wei said frankly that there must be risks, there are still many unknown phenomena in space, and if we are not careful, it will cause a catastrophe, but we can't not try because of the risk, so a trip will bring immeasurable gains to our astronomical career, and the return of two peers, we can do a lot of understanding and research on prehistory, which is a blank in the history of this round of mankind. If that ship could be brought back, it could have a revolutionary impact on many of our related industries. What we have to evaluate is the risk factor, if the coefficient is low, we should go, with our current technology, I think the risk factor is still quite low.

At the meeting, life scientists said that flying at the speed of light will stop the growth and development of the human body, which means that people will have the phenomenon of immortality, and they can also do not need to eat and drink, and do not need to consider the problems of birth, old age, sickness and death during the flight.

Wouldn't this team have to be re-formed, if this is the case, it is still a bit regrettable, these expert-level business masters are gone all at once, and it will really affect the work of the laboratory. Among the four disciples, it should be no problem to enter the Mars base for flight simulation training, but will they all be able to go up in the end? It is not very likely, he studied the information of the candidates who were finally selected as three to one, and felt that Xu Jiawei had made remarkable achievements in the exploration of outer space resources, and the other two people who competed with him would not pose a threat to him, and his psychological quality was also stable, and being selected was almost a matter of ironclad. Ma Biao's group is close in strength, and Ma Biao has an advantage in his mental quality; Chen Jie reported the gravitational detection group, although Chen Jie's comprehensive ability is relatively good, and he is excellent in all aspects, but his three colleagues are much stronger than him in terms of individual ability, and their ability is not the same level, and even colleagues can't compete, let alone other people who don't understand, he can only report the gravitational detection group, but the advantage in this group is not obvious, it is difficult to say whether he will be selected at the last moment. Because his disciples were all there, in order to reflect fairness, he had to avoid this selection. According to his estimates, in addition to Xu Jiawei, Ma Biao should also be fine, Lin Shanshan is a little hanging, and Chen Jie is unlikely.

The small red dot on the other wall flashed and flickered, and there was a message coming.

Professor Shen Wei hurriedly opened it to see that it was the end of the day, saying that he had flown forward for about 1 light year and found no difference. also posted an incomprehensible sentence "Odep Bogut originally". The professor replied with a normal remark, encouraging them to continue their exploration and be patient. After this period of information exchange, Professor Shen Wei found a problem, in fact, the expression between him and his predecessors is still not completely smooth, some of our ordinary words they can't understand, for example, Lin Shanshan asked them questions about height and weight, they felt inexplicable, they didn't understand what it meant, originally with this information, there was no need to vacate an extra space for them on the spacecraft. The message they sent back today didn't understand what it meant. I don't know what will happen when we meet them in the future, whether they will look like people now, whether their faces will intimidate the people who rescue them, whether their physical characteristics will be different from those of today, whether there will be language barriers, etc., etc., etc

A month later, the training camp ended, and the four of them came back full of energy to report to the professor.

"Congratulations to all of you on the flight simulator, which means you've already bought your tickets, because the boat is too small to fit in a matter of luck. In the small conference room, Professor Shen Wei held a welcome meeting for them.

"Professor, you see. Xu Jiawei said.

"Hmph, if I don't know this in the first place, how can I be a professor. ”

"Yes, yes, if you can't pass this level, how can we move on to the next step. ”

"Wrong, I can't be a judge this time, because I have four disciples here at once, and people are afraid that I will be biased, and you will enter completely by your own strength. Of course, they will tell me as soon as the final list comes out, and the courtesy consultation process is still indispensable. Ha. The professor said.

"Professor, you've done a great job. Lin Shanshan said.

"That's inevitable, whoever made you so good, if there is one who is not so good, he will stay with me, sometimes being excellent is also a sin, ha. The professor said.

"Who made you so picky in the original selection, if you had chosen casually, there would not have been such a situation now, and our colleagues would not have been so few. Lin Shanshan said.

"Hehe, it's still my fault. No more jokes, let's talk about it, is the competition fierce?" the professor asked.

"Not intense. ”

"Intense!"

Professor Shen Wei heard everyone say their own things, so he simply called them by name.
