865 Extraterrestrial civilizations

Soon, the various types of detectors were dropped by the Hawkeye, and began to orbit in their respective orbits within a radius of 5,000 kilometers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 After a simple debugging of info, a steady stream of information began to be sent to Tan Zhenwen's computer.

The others were still busy with their own business, waiting for reinforcements to arrive while trying to save themselves. Xiao Yan stayed by Tan Zhenwen's side, expecting the ship-accompanying scientist to give him some good news through his knowledge.

It's just that soon he saw Tan Zhenwen frowning, and an incredible look appeared on his face.

"What's wrong? What did you find? Xiao Yan asked.

"No, maybe I made a mistake! You wait! Tan Zhenwen casually threw out a sentence, and his hands began to operate quickly on his computer.

After the operation, the expression on Tan Zhenwen's face became very complicated, there was a trace of disbelief, a trace of fear, but more of an excitement, an excitement that could not be concealed at all.

"What the hell is going on? You don't look like you've discovered our friendly ships, do you? Xiao Yanhu looked at the scientist suspiciously and asked loudly.

"I'm not sure what this is going on yet, but look here!" Tan Zhenwen pointed to his screen.

Xiao Yan looked over, it was all a pattern composed of various lines, and he didn't understand what these meant, so he could only look puzzled.

"Oh well, this is the signal that our detector received, this is a shortwave radio signal, this shortwave radio technology used to be very widely used on Earth, especially the military used it a lot, and these shortwave signals that we received must have been sent on a planet near us through various reflections and finally captured by our detectors. Of course, we can't know when this signal is, but it is certain that there must be a planet in this star field that has intelligent life on it, and they are very mature in radio technology. More data needs to wait, knowing that even if the planet is so close to us, it is estimated that it will be several light years away, and more signals will need to be transmitted here. Of course, there is an even more important discovery to support my argument, and you pay attention to this message, which is the data sent back by the light-sensitive device on one of our detectors. Based on the data feedback, I rather suspect that this is the captured space infrared telescope band frequency. ”

"Wait, you mean, there's really an extraterrestrial civilization in this star field where we're in? Or does it have radio technology and astronomical telescope technology similar to that on Earth? Or are you mistaken? These radio waves you receive are actually emitted by our friendly ships? Xiao Yan said with a strange expression.

If he had discovered an extraterrestrial civilization on Expedition No. 1, he might have been as excited as Tan Zhenwen at this time, but now the situation is different, they are in trouble so far, they have no ability to defend at all, and in this case, discovering an extraterrestrial civilization is definitely not a good thing!

There are black hole cannons on Expedition 1, which can more or less bypass encounters with less friendly extraterrestrial civilizations, and more or less deter them. After all, throwing a cannon at the star is very likely to be played by everyone, but the highest-end weapon on his reconnaissance ship is an energy main gun, facing the giant ship on the expedition No. 1, and it can't even break the protective shield. As for the role of melee tactical missiles within 8,000 kilometers in space warfare, it is even smaller, there is no large force to help share firepower, Xiao Yan, who has experienced many major battles in the game, does not think that those missiles can have any effect under the condition of inconvenient mobility.

The most important thing is that they don't know how far the civilization and technology of this planet have developed. That's the most worrying thing.

"Friendly ships?" Tan Zhenwen looked at Xiao Yan suspiciously, "When did you see the correspondent using short-wave communication technology for communication between ships?" Nowadays, we use quantum and laser communication technology. Not to mention that even if other warships carry radio communication equipment, they can still come in handy now when they pass through various energy interferences through wormholes? This is one of the reasons for the complete failure of the radar system on our ships! Even on our home planet, many applications on Earth are still using radio technology, but now only as an aid to quantum communication! ”

"In other words, there really is an extraterrestrial civilization in this star field!?" Xiao Yan said with a headache.

"Eighty percent probability! It's a pity that most of the equipment on the ship is not usable, otherwise I could have found a way to find a pulsar that might exist nearby, triangulate, and determine the location of the target star! It would be better if Expedition 1 could come now! If it is on Expedition 1, it only takes me ten minutes to determine the coordinates of this planet, and then determine whether this star field really has an extraterrestrial civilization comparable to the civilization of the earth through directional observation! Tan Zhenwen said excitedly.

Pulsar positioning is now the mainstream positioning and navigation technology on Expedition-1. It is also an indispensable tool for the manufacture of star maps.

It is very difficult to determine your target in the vast universe, especially in an unfamiliar star field, with no latitude and longitude, no coordinates, and if you don't have an accurate positioning and navigation method, you may even run farther and farther away towards the target location. Therefore, the pulsar positioning technology on Expedition-1 came into being.

Pulsars are rapidly rotating neutron stars, and the accuracy of the two signal periods of radio radiation and X-ray radiation emitted by it is very high, even comparable to atomic clocks, so that by scanning the signals of three neutron stars and recording them, they can use themselves as a reference to carry out more accurate positioning and navigation of an unfamiliar star field.

The biggest advantage is that when sailing in an unfamiliar star field, you can change the reference star at any time to continuously expand the positioning range, which is very practical for the current Expedition-1. As an astrophysicist, Tan Zhenwen is naturally familiar with this technology. The only drawback is that the data that needs to be calculated is relatively large, and the small quantum computer on board the Hawkeye needs to be calculated for a long time. However, if Expedition-1 does not have this problem here, after all, Expedition-1 has a high-end version of the quantum superbrain.

As soon as Tan Zhengwen's words fell, the Hawkeye suddenly vibrate, and when the shaking stopped and everyone was looking at each other, the quantum communication device connected to the Expedition 1 on the ship suddenly flashed a green light, and then the radio on the Hawkeye sounded again.

"This is Expedition No. 1, repeating this is Expedition No. 1, we have rushed through the wormhole to the rescue, all the bat formation reconnaissance ships that have received the message please stay where they are, and turn on the emergency distress signal!"

"Expedition One is here! Ha! We are saved! ”

"Xiao Tou, you can say it, today's black limit, if you don't get drunk, you won't return!"

"Hurry up, use my ID code sc880638 to send an urgent communication request to Expedition 1 immediately! I'm going to report our findings to the captain right away! I want the highest level of communication request! We must be prepared for possible extraterrestrial civilizations! ”

……

Expedition One.

Wang Shizi, who had just passed through the wormhole, was standing in the command center, staring at the various cursors on the screen.

When you arrive in an unfamiliar star field, you can't be too careful.

Therefore, as soon as they passed through the wormhole, the two battle formations immediately urgently assembled and began to deploy near Expedition No. 1.

Unlike Xiao Yan's Hawkeye passively inhaling into this unfamiliar star field, through this relatively stable wormhole, the equipment on Expedition 1 was not disturbed too much. Moreover, this crossing is also a valuable experience, and compared with the temporary wormhole created by the black hole cannon, the various data obtained are different.

From the sensory point of view alone, the various colors inside the channel are more brilliant and more regular, of course, these are only the superficial images that can be recognized by the human eye on the virtual screen, if you want to upgrade the existing spatial transition technology, you need to make further efforts by those scientists at the scientific research level.

Wang Shizi doesn't care about these situations now, he is more concerned about the situation of those missing reconnaissance ships.

After sending the message through the special quantum signal frequency of Expedition 1 and all the warships, the emergency distress contact signals of a total of nine reconnaissance ships appeared on the display screen of the command hall. Two more are still missing.

The rescue fleet has been dispatched and is expected to complete all rescue work in two hours.

Just then, a request for emergency access at the highest level appeared in the command hall. According to the system, the communication request was sent by the Hawkeye, a previously lost Eagle-class reconnaissance ship, with the identification code of a well-known astrophysicist accompanying the ship.

Wang Shizi still has an impression of Xiao Yan, the captain of the Hawkeye, and his ability to never forget and Chen Jingjing's relationship made him remember this young man from China.

Of course, even if you don't have the impression that the signals from these reconnaissance ships will have to be received at this time.

Apparently there was a problem with some of the equipment on the Hawkeye, and no video signal appeared after the video communication was connected, but the audio signal was transmitted.

"Captain, I'm Tan Zhenwen, and I'm on board the Hawkeye to probe Europa's parameters in depth."

"Hello Professor Tan, is there any emergency?"

"That's right, the detector we sent out in this star field received a lot of scattered radio short-wave signals, according to my experience, these are not those chaotic signals in the universe, but the information carriers that are indeed sent by electronic devices, so I suggest that Expedition 1 immediately locate the galaxy and search for the target star, Captain, there is likely to be an alien civilization in this star field that we have never been in contact with, but it overlaps with our development process! We may break through 0 communication with extraterrestrial civilizations here! ”

Tan Zhenwen was excited, of course, this is understandable. Even when Wang Shizi got the news, his eyebrows trembled unnaturally.

Extraterrestrial civilizations!

If Tan Zhenwen's discovery is correct, human history has finally proved conclusively that human beings are not the only intelligent life in the universe.

"Okay! I'll send our call logs to R&D right away, and now we're searching for recognizable and accurate signals in the vicinity and starting to map the stars, we'll prioritize this determination, thanks to Professor Tan, I'm sure we'll be able to confirm your discovery when you return to Expedition 1! ”

The R&D layer is also very busy at this time, just arrived in an unfamiliar star field, and the scientists on the R&D layer need to do too much, study the energy response of the wormhole exit, detect the signals of the surrounding planets, find pulsars that can be used as lighthouses, triangulate, detect the position of stars in the galaxy, calculate the orbit of Expedition 1, etc., to help Wang Shizi provide a feasible reference for the next step......

"What? Are you saying that Tan has found evidence of the existence of extraterrestrial intelligent life? The surprise of Addington Ross on the other end of the video is definitely no less than that of Wang Shizi.

"It's not certain yet, so further confirmation is needed. The Hidden Dragon Scout Formation has been ordered to get ready to go, and you will soon receive more detailed information, and if Professor Tan is not mistaken, I am sure you will soon come to the same conclusion! ”

"Okay, our triangulation will be completed soon, and the next step will be to carry out the approximate star map of the entire star field, if we are sure that there is really an extraterrestrial civilization signal, we will soon find out their approximate location!"

"It's not just about determining the location, if it's confirmed that this extraterrestrial civilization really exists, the most important information I need is whether they have discovered our entry! I'm sure you know that this is important for my next decision! ”

"Rest assured! We'll do our best! That's it for now, the Hawkeye has sent data, and we'll be in touch with you when we have a conclusion here! With that, the two sides closed the communication.

Obviously, at this time, the entire R&D layer of Expedition 1 is even busier.

The discovery of extraterrestrial life is a big deal! Especially intelligent life.

This is not just a discovery, but involves a series of questions, such as whether to contact with extraterrestrial civilizations, how to do so, whether there will be danger, whether extraterrestrial civilizations are aggressive, what is their civilization level, more advanced than the earth or backward than the earth, there are too many things to understand, of course, the first question to be solved is still whether this extraterrestrial civilization exists.

This is not just a question of concern for scientists, but of everyone, and everyone who boarded the ship may be very curious about this issue, and even many crew members boarded Expedition 1 with the mentality of having contact with other alien civilizations. One can imagine how much of a sensation it will bring to Expeditionary 1 when this information is finally confirmed.

The harvest is too big, not long after I set off from the earth, not only did I find a wormhole channel hidden in the Jupiter system, but I really discovered extraterrestrial life through the wormhole, do you want to come so suddenly? (To be continued.) )
