Chapter 37: Space Dust
The virtual projection helmet was quickly developed, and it took less than five days for the sisters, and after five days, Su Tian fell asleep tiredly, and Su Meng put Su Tian into a time deceleration state after Su Tian fell asleep.
experimenting with her sister made Su Meng very happy these days.
There are still forty-five years to reach the new galaxy, Su Meng hugged her sister, came to the main control room, and then called up the star map data and checked it.
This is no longer the familiar area when you were on Earth, and most of the surrounding starry sky is an unfamiliar planet, and only some iconic stars can still be seen at any time.
In the blink of an eye, another four years have passed, and when Su Meng was testing a new ion thruster in the test area that day, suddenly the communication terminal on his hand sent a warning notification.
Su Meng pressed it and saw that it read: "Unknown radiation detected, and the danger level is judged to be F." ”
Su Meng's communication terminal and the main computer of the spaceship are connected through a wireless network, and the warning is from the main computer of the spaceship, it seems that the spaceship should have encountered some events that cannot be interpreted by the scheduled program, Su Meng sighed slightly, hugged her sister, and then flew in the direction of the main control room.
Su Meng came to the main control room, hugged her sister, and turned on the screen with the remote control, and saw a warning sign appear on the screen, and the content was that unknown radiation was encountered.
Su Meng began to analyze these unknown radiations, and finally Su Meng found that his spaceship seemed to have entered an interstellar dust belt, because the interstellar dust was very thinly distributed, so the optical telescope could not detect it, and the radiation was generated by the spacecraft colliding with interstellar dust at high speed.
Su Meng began to evaluate the size of this cloud of interstellar dust, due to the lack of data accumulation, Su Meng could only make a rough estimate, from the time of entering the interstellar dust, to the faint and almost undetectable changes in luminosity, all of which were analyzed in depth.
The final analysis concluded that the span of this dust belt was about 2.3 light years, and Su Meng would need to sail in this dust belt for 7-8 years before he could get out.
In the past, human research on interstellar dust was all based on speculation.
Yes, it's all speculation, it's ridiculous, but this is the truth, human beings' understanding of the universe is still in the stage of speculation, because human beings can only rely on optical telescopes to study the huge universe, just like bacteria's understanding of the human body, one-sided and ridiculous, at this moment Su Meng began to analyze the components in the interstellar dust, and after analyzing it, she was startled.
Because she was shocked to find that the main ingredient of interstellar dust turned out to be gold.
The main component of this interstellar dust is gold.
The element of gold, on earth, is also known as gold.
Su Meng didn't expect that what made up this piece of interstellar dust would be the gold element.
Su Meng can imagine that I don't know how many billion years ago, there was a terrifying explosion of a supernova here, which exploded with an energy intensity hundreds of billions of times more than the nuclear fission reaction, and then created the gold element.
Gold, an element that cannot be manufactured by humans, was produced in the supernova Big Bang, and is the most stable heavy element in the universe, and it is a veritable rare metal element in the universe.
However, for Su Meng, who can directly use energy to make matter, convert matter into energy, and master the source of matter, no matter how expensive something is, as long as it is material, then there is as much as you want.
After Su Meng assessed these space dusts, he thought that the impact on his spacecraft was not great.
After thirteen seconds of simulation, Su Meng saw that his spaceship had been covered with a layer of gold by this interstellar dust more than 7 years later, and the original white spaceship had turned golden.
Well, in fact, it's not a bad thing, Su Meng said helplessly in her heart.
Su Meng's spaceship sailed in the space dust like this, and in the blink of an eye, more than three years had passed.
Su Meng was looking at the book on the laptop in the rest area, she had completed all the experiments she could do in the past three years, and there was no way to start a new experiment before she had a new idea, so she was reading a book to pass the time.
The civilization of the earth has disappeared, and what is left behind is these books and those technologies, which are now inherited by Su Meng.
Su Meng also did not insist that he needed to resurrect human civilization, in the face of natural laws, everything is equal, and the extinction of human civilization is because of its own factors, which shows that human civilization cannot adapt to the universe and is eliminated by nature, and the eliminated civilization does not have the qualifications to recover, even if it is forcibly restored, it is just another civilization, without history, there is no civilization.
At this moment, Su Meng's spaceship has basically turned golden, but this gold is still relatively light, and the white outline can be vaguely seen.
But it is estimated that in a few years, it will be completely plated with gold, and this gold-plated process is simply unique, the gold element hits Su Meng's spaceship at a relative speed of 30% of the speed of light, and then embeds it into the surface of a titanium-hydrogen alloy several meters thick, even if it has been tens of thousands of years, it will not fade a little.
Su Meng read the book for a while and closed the laptop.
Then she sat on the edge of the bed, and after a while, she made a cup of coffee and savored it slowly.
When a person has infinite life and can live to the end of the universe, for her, time is no longer the sword of Damocles that oppresses her to work non-stop, but the weapon of her thinking.
In the blink of an eye, more than four years have passed, and on this day, Su Meng stood in the control hall, and the screen in front of him showed that the spacecraft had escaped from the interstellar dust.
If someone looks from the outside, they can see that Su Meng's spaceship has turned into gold all over at this moment.
Then in the blink of an eye, another three years passed.
Su Meng's sister Su Tian woke up again.
Su Meng accompanied Su Tian and spent a relaxing day.
Then Su Tian continued to sleep, and Su Meng let Su Tian still be in time slowdown.
At this moment, there are still thirty-five years to go.
Thirty-five years is not as simple as that number, thirty-five years means a long, long period of time, fortunately, the universe is empty enough, Su Meng's spaceship has not encountered any interstellar dust, and has been sailing so calmly.
In the spaceship, Su Meng hugged her sister, spending more time thinking, and the number of experiments was getting less and less.
In many cases, human beings' understanding of the universe is emotional.
At this moment, Su Meng really came to the universe, and only then did she truly feel the essence of the universe, which is tolerance.
Yes, the essence of the universe is not natural selection, not survival of the fittest, but tolerance.
Because the universe is very large, almost infinite, in the universe, any living being, any civilization, has the possibility of survival.
Su Meng is thinking about the nature of the universe at the moment, and at the same time, she is also thinking about human beings.
Su Meng, who has inherited the human understanding of the universe, has enough opportunities to no longer resurrect the human race, but to re-understand the universe as a separate individual.
It's a new beginning.
