Chapter 413: Study Hawking's Brain

There is a way of profit, so Queen Elizabeth II finally reluctantly accepted Henry's polygamy.

The marriage is negotiated, but there is no huge dowry for the British royal family as expected.

The general view in the West is that marriage is a matter of two people, why give the woman a dowry, and the other party is not something to be bought and sold. If the man gives a dowry, then the woman marries a daughter as if she has been sold. In the traditional family in North America, the wedding expenses for marrying a daughter are all borne by the girl's father, and the man just pays for it politely. Henry naturally wanted to "follow the customs", so he didn't talk to the British royal family about the dowry at all. However, when the wedding was held, Henry offered to take care of everything and leave it all to him, after all, he married Princess Ulysses alone.

……

End of June.

When Stephen William Hawking, one of the greatest physicists of modern times, was to give a lecture at Cambridge University, Henry took Princess Ulysses with him.

It is known that Hawking suffered from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's disease) at the age of 21, paralyzing his whole body and unable to speak. The only places he can move are a pair of eyes and 3 fingers. There is no doubt that Hawking is an ill-fated supergenius! He is a British "national treasure" talent, recognized as the "smartest brain" in the world, and has the same IQ as Einstein!

Henry had read Hawking's "A Brief History of Time" and had also learned about the theories he proposed! His main research fields were cosmology and black holes, and he proved the singularity theorem and the black hole area theorem of general relativity, put forward the theory of black hole evaporation and the borderless Hawking model of the universe, and took an important step in unifying the two basic theories of physics in the 20 th century -- the theory of relativity founded by Einstein and the quantum mechanics founded by Planck, and is considered to be one of the greatest scientists after Newton and Einstein!

Henry has a keen interest in the universe! So, for a scientist like Stephen Hawking, Henry might as well meet him if he has time!

In addition to being a scientist, Hawking also has another identity -- the "Emperor of Prophecy"! From "the theory of the destruction of the earth" to "aliens are not to be messed with", from "the brain can exist independently of the human body" to "artificial intelligence will eventually surpass human beings", the assertions of this "Emperor of Prophecy" are always so shocking.

However, these things are very much to Henry's appetite.

In the "Theory of Earth Destruction", Hawking believes that war, resource exhaustion, overpopulation, etc., are all expanding threats, and even Hawking also gave a clear time - the destruction of the earth within 1000 years. Therefore, he believes that human beings cannot "put all their eggs in one basket", cannot bet on one planet, and that the only chance for human society to escape from future disasters is not on Earth, but in space!

"Emperor of Prophecy" Stephen Hawking even categorically affirmed the existence of aliens. Just imagine, the universe is so big, if one earth can give birth to intelligent life, can't other planets give birth to intelligent life? The universe has a very large base number of celestial bodies, and on this base, it is impossible for alien life to exist! Hawking warned mankind that if there is an "unexpected encounter" with aliens in space, then it is best not to "talk to aliens," otherwise the consequences may be quite serious, and that is because ...... "aliens are not easy to mess with."

A scientist named Forgaon has used vast amounts of data about the mass and brightness of stars and their position in the Milky Way galaxy to develop a computer program that simulates the operation of various planetary systems. Although it is impossible to determine the exact number of planets in the Milky Way, the data on the extrasolar planets that have been discovered so far provide an important basis for Forgaon's research. He then used the program to simulate the conditions needed for a planetary system to give birth to life and civilization. Through simulation, it is found that the number of possible life civilizations in the galaxy will be very large, about 30,000 to 40,000.

Most of these civilizations are simple bacterial lifeforms, with about 2,000 of them in advanced life, and less than a few hundred of them have intelligence!

However, so far, human beings have not discovered the existence of any life civilization outside the earth. However, who dares to deny that there are no extraterrestrial civilizations? Henry is also convinced that there must be other life civilizations in the universe, and one day, human beings will find them!

In the middle of summer, the weather in London is exceptionally hot.

Cambridge University is located in the town of Cambridge, England, there is a small river called the Sword River, this winding river, on both sides of the willow silk, grassy grass, the river erected many exquisitely designed, beautiful shape of the bridge, among which the Mathematics Bridge, Grey Bridge and Sigh Bridge are the most famous. Wandering along the banks of the Sword River, there are many classic buildings, tall and exquisite school buildings, solemn churches and red brick houses covered with green vines stand among the green trees and red flowers of the city, verdant and verdant, full of ancient meaning.

Henry and Princess Ulysses rowed a small wooden boat, held a penny tour, floated on the Sword River to enjoy the riverside landscape of Cambridge University, and enjoyed the world-famous Cambridge colleges and universities.

After getting off the boat, the two walked hand in hand inside Cambridge University. Few people knew about Henry's new looks, and Princess Ulysses wore black sunglasses and a white bow sun hat, so no one recognized them. At this moment, many students and physicists have rushed to Cambridge University to listen to Hawking's speech.

Ten minutes later, Henry and Princess Ulysses arrived at the School of Physical Sciences at the University of Cambridge.

In a very large classroom, Hawking is skinny and has a crooked head, which looks a bit like he is "grinning". He was sitting in a special wheelchair with a computer in front of him, and he couldn't speak. Due to his illness, he lost his ability to speak, and could only give speeches to everyone through a computer voice synthesis.

At this moment, the speech began......

"Time travel is theoretically possible," Hawking said from the podium, "I believe that humanity can open the door back to the past and a shortcut to the future!

For physicists, a time tunnel might be a wormhole. Wormholes are all around us, but they are too small to be seen with the naked eye. Everything in the universe has small holes or cracks, and this basic law also applies to time. Time also has subtle cracks and voids, and voids smaller than molecules and atoms are called 'quantum bubbles', and wormholes exist in 'quantum bubbles'. ”

Time is like a river with different velocities in different places, and that's the key to realizing the journey to the future. According to Einstein's theory, time passes more slowly in some places and faster in others. As the spacecraft accelerates in space, the passage of time slows down somewhat for the spacecraft's astronauts. A black hole is a natural time machine that can reduce the passage of time, and if humans perform a 5-year mission in a supergiant black hole, they will find that 10 years have passed when they return to Earth......"

"The third way is to fly at the speed of light! If you can build a spaceship that is close to the speed of light, then the spaceship will inevitably slow down the time in the capsule because it cannot violate the law of the fastest speed of light. Astronauts fly in this way for a week, and 100 years of time on Earth pass, thus realizing a journey into the future. ”

Hawking's words were inexplicably exciting, and the audience couldn't help but applaud.

At this time, the synthesized voice of Hawking's computer rang out again: "However, you must not use the time machine to go back in time, because this will lead to violating the basic theory of cause and effect! For example, if you go back in time, then your parents or even yourself may not be able to exist, because one time and space do not allow two of you!"

Hearing this, Henry's body shook suddenly. Isn't it true that I have traveled back in time and space to the past? Doesn't this already prove the feasibility of time travel? And my parents and myself in my previous life do not exist...... It seems that he fell into the pit in his previous life...... And it's a big pit of wormholes!

However, there will be no second chance of such a slim chance. As for the three methods mentioned by Hawking, it now seems that they are illusory and impossible to realistic.

In fact, Henry met Hawking this time with the intention of recruiting him to SpaceX. Stephen Hawking's scientific theories don't actually have much guidance for SpaceX. But Hawking's fame is what Henry values the most. There is a big god in the scientific community who sits in the company, which is sure to attract more scientists to join SpaceX.

On the other hand, Henry wanted to study Hawking's brain...... It is said that he can form a variety of mental patterns and mental equations in his mind, and then use these mental elements to think about physical problems. Physicist Werner Israel said that Hawking's thought process is like Mozart's imagination to write an entire symphony with great characteristics.

Of course, to study Hawking's brain, it has to be justified. Henry remembers that in his previous life, in 2005, Hawking's condition worsened, and he could only use the movement of his cheek muscles to control his communication device, which could only output about one word per minute. So Hawking, together with neuroscientists, is developing a new system that allows computers to translate his brainwave patterns into words.

And Henry and the gene umbrella company's research on brain waves is beyond imagination, and it is completely possible to study Hawking's brain in the name of helping him develop a brain wave translation system to see what is the difference between the "smartest brains"?

A hint of curiosity flashed in Henry's eyes, is Hawking's brain stronger than mine?
