Chapter 395: Simulation

The Federal Academy of Sciences, which is now larger and more extensive than it was 400 years ago. Even in the underground base, an ecological balance circle like the Pluto base has been built, and the reason why such an ecological balance circle was built is not because of the supply of materials to the entire Federal Academy of Sciences, but because it is used to simulate other cosmic civilizations and living planets in the universe as a scientific research.

And now, Su Yichen is standing in this ecological balance circle, looking at the surrounding environment.

"The entire ecological balance circle is operated by three intelligent brains, as long as you have planetary data, you can simulate the ecological state of each planet, and more importantly, this ecological balance circle is composed of 12 modules, which can be combined and operated as one, and can also be split into separate operations." Professor Shi Lei, President of the Federal Academy of Sciences, introduced Su Yichen with great pride in his words, knowing that this ecological balance circle looks similar to the ecological balance of each base, but in terms of details, especially scientific research, more consideration and more detail.

These words made Su Yichen very interested, especially the fact that each module runs independently, is independent of each other and can be merged with each other. From this point, it can be seen that the main purpose of the Federal Academy of Sciences to create this ecological balance sphere, and it has a natural advantage in studying the formation state of various cosmic civilizations and living planets.

"Look at this area." Professor Shi Lei casually pointed out an electronic screen, on which the range of 12 modules was displayed, one of which was a corner of the entire ecological balance circle, and there was a special mark on this module: "This module was just completed last month, and the ecological environment of the entire area is completely arranged according to the original ecological planet in the Andromeda Galaxy, including the distribution of plants in it is also restored according to the data as much as possible." ”

"Yes, exactly the same?" Su Yichen asked.

Professor Shi Lei smiled: "It is impossible to be exactly the same, but there is no problem with achieving more than 98% similarity according to the adjustment of the intelligent brain." ”

These words made Su Yichen laugh at the same time. It is true that the differences between the two planets cannot be exactly the same, and the Federal Academy of Sciences on Earth can only try to replicate them. However, to what extent it can be replicated, and whether it is more than 98% as Professor Shi Lei said, Su Yichen has to see it in person.

What's more, the main purpose of his coming here today was also to go to this area to see it in person, and they immediately took a special communication vehicle. Shortly after changing into a special spacesuit, Professor Shi Lei told Su Yichen that they had arrived, as the vehicle passed through a special passage through a barrier.

Getting out of the car and stepping on the ground under his feet, Su Yichen looked around, and was shocked by the ecological environment here at first sight. If it weren't for what Professor Shi Lei said before, he would have even thought that he had returned to the original planet he had passed before, and everything around him was just like what he had encountered, including the sand dunes he stood on and the lake not far away. There is also the forest on the other side of the lake. This is almost what he and Luo Yan saw when they landed on that planet.

The Federal Academy of Sciences used the data brought back by Su Yichen to completely simulate a part of the original planet, and even the plant part here was completely catalyzed and cultivated according to the plant samples of the original planet. Not to mention, the composition of the air is exactly the same as in the data, if there is a difference, perhaps only slightly in the gravitational part, and there is also a difference in the ionospheric barrier of the atmosphere.

"How?"

Professor Shi Lei asked with a proud smile.

Su Yichen couldn't help but praise: "It's much better than I imagined, I really didn't expect you to be able to do this." ”

Professor Shi Lei nodded happily, Su Yichen's praise made him very happy in his heart, but unfortunately the animals here were not like the animals of the original planet. Only a few herbivores were genetically cloned, and the ones were huge. Fierce carnivores, the Federal Academy of Sciences did not set out to reproduce them for safety reasons.

But what made Su Yichen feel the difference was that although the cloned herbivores looked similar to the samples he collected on the original planet, they always felt a little different regardless of their physical condition or other aspects, and he couldn't help frowning slightly as he looked at a few herbivores drinking water by the lake.

"Looks like you've found out, too." Professor Shi Lei followed Su Yichen's gaze. I couldn't help but sigh lightly: "One of the reasons for inviting you to come here is that we replicate the sample genes you provided, and the results of the replication are as consistent as 99.9% with the data, but the problem is that there are great differences in the final body type, including bone structure." This is something we can't understand, and we can't solve it. ”

"What are the cloning steps?" Su Yichen is not a genetic expert, but he still asked. Professor Shi Lei explained to him in detail, and after listening to Professor Shi Lei's explanation, at least Su Yichen didn't find any problems, because whether it was the environmental factors at the time of cloning or the cultivation of organisms, the Earth Federal Academy of Sciences did a very detailed job, and even in this simulated environment that can almost be fake, it was fully considered, but the final result was still very different.

"Have you tried cloning a carnivore?" Su Yichen thought about it for a while, and couldn't think of any negligence for the time being, so he couldn't help but ask from a different angle.

"On the one hand, there is a safety issue, and on the other hand, to be honest, the gene cloning has failed." Unexpectedly, Professor Shi Lei told him such an answer.

"Failed? How could it be ......? ”

"That's what we're confused about, look at this ......." Professor Shi Lei pointed out the electronic screen out of thin air, showing an image of an embryo, this embryo is a cloned embryo of a carnivore, the image is played in a fast-forward way, with a chronological note on it, but with the playback of the video, Su Yichen can clearly see that when the embryo is gradually maturing, it dies inexplicably, and it is not only an embryo, almost all the embryos of carnivorous animals collected are like this, which is simply incredible.

Could it be that there is a conflict between drugs and genes in cloning catalysis? Professor Shi Lei denied this question. It makes no sense that herbivores would not have succeeded if there had been a conflict, and even the Federal Academy of Sciences had tried to culture embryos without catalytic drugs, but all of them had failed.

"Our scientists have tried many times, but the results have always been the same. We don't understand what the problem is, so I'd like to ask for your opinion. Professor Shi Lei shrugged helplessly.

Su Yichen couldn't help but smile bitterly, he was a physicist and electronics scientist, not a biologist, and he didn't have detailed research on genetic engineering, and the Federal Academy of Sciences had Su Li assisting when it was carrying out this project. With Su Li's ability to solve these problems, what good is he?

However, since Shi Lei asked himself, Su Yichen still carefully considered the possible problems. When he looked up at the sky, a thought suddenly crossed his mind.

"Ionosphere!"

"The ionosphere?"

"That's right! It's the ionosphere! Su Yichen pointed to the sky and said, "That primitive planet has a very unique ionospheric structure, maybe it is due to this change." But that's just my guess, and I can't guarantee whether it's or not. ”

"Ionospheric ......." Professor Shi Lei thought for a moment and shook his head, here they have tried their best to simulate and restore the state of the original planet, but the ionospheric simulation cannot do it. You must know that the ionosphere is a relatively special environment, and it is also related to the planet's atmosphere. It is related to various factors such as sunlight and radiation outside the planet. On Earth, the Earth has its own natural and unique environment, so a complete simulation cannot be established, and because of the special environment of the ecological balance sphere, coupled with the special changes in the ionosphere, it is also impossible to accurately grasp it.

"That's going to be too hard......." In an instant, many plans flashed through Professor Shi Lei's heart. But he was soon overthrown one by one. According to Su Yichen's idea of the ionosphere, then the Federal Academy of Sciences has only one complete possibility of simulation. That is, to find a terrestrial planet in the universe alone, and to transform this terrestrial planet in order to achieve a natural environment that is exactly the same as that original planet, and then carry out biological cloning experiments in this case.

But the cost of doing so would be enormous, the time required would be extremely long, and there was a problem. That is, what if you do this and end up failing again? Then all the input and dedication will be meaningless.

Not only Professor Shi Lei thought of this, but in fact, Su Yichen also thought of this, and they shook their heads at the same time, vetoing this possibility in their hearts.

Looking at Professor Shi Lei, who was a little frustrated, Su Yichen suddenly said something. All of a sudden, Professor Shi Lei's eyes lit up.

"That's right! That's a solution, I didn't think of it! Professor Shi Lei was immediately overjoyed.

Su Yichen's suggestion is very simple, that is, the exploration plan of the Andromeda galaxy that is currently being negotiated with the Blue Star civilization, the determination of this plan is already a certainty, if the plan is really implemented, then the earth civilization will go to the Andromeda Galaxy with the Blue Star civilization through the wormhole, and the original planet is not too far from the other end of the Andromeda galaxy wormhole, if you can, you only need to send some scientists to conduct cloning experiments on the original planet, If the cloning can be successful, then it means that there is no technical problem, then the reason lies in the particularity of the planet itself.

This is a simple method of elimination, and although such an elimination method requires a great deal of investment and even a certain amount of risk, it is much less expensive and time-consuming than directly modifying a terrestrial planet. However, Su Yichen still did not approve of the implementation of this plan by the Federal Academy of Sciences, and he didn't know why he always had concerns about the Andromeda Galaxy, perhaps because of Galen's warning and reminder that from the bottom of his heart, he was resistant to the exploration and development of the Andromeda Galaxy.

However, in Professor Shi Lei's opinion, this is the most convenient and convenient method, and more importantly, the particularity of the original planet, especially the special situation of those creatures, has aroused great interest from the Federal Academy of Sciences. After Su Yichen and the others returned, the information of the captured little guy and the person who died in the spaceship made the biologists and geneticists in the Federal Academy of Sciences pay great attention to it, they believe that this is another way of evolution of living beings, a direction completely different from the evolution of biological science in the galaxy, if the mystery of this evolution can be clarified, then maybe the human beings on Earth can get another evolutionary path from it, thus creating an unheard of future.

In fact, at the beginning, Su Yichen and the others also thought so, but they were not as fanatical as these biologists and geneticists.

Professor Shi Lei was very excited after being reminded by Su Yichen, and he couldn't wait to go to Mr. President to raise this issue, and it was best to finalize this matter during the negotiation with the Blue Star Civilization. Su Yichen did not accompany Professor Shi Lei to leave, but stayed alone in this area, walking alone by the lake, looking at the surrounding scenery and those herbivores that had no natural predators and were lazily drinking water and eating food.

After turning around, Su Yichen found a stone and sat down, then took out something from his pocket, pressed the button on it, and a sound that could not be heard by human ears spread out in all directions around him, and the surrounding herbivores suddenly looked a little uneasy, and after a short time, a figure that was almost invisible to the naked eye flew from the depths of the forest to the lakeside.

The herbivores seemed to be greatly frightened and suddenly scattered and fled, but Su Yichen continued to sit motionless, his eyes looking towards the figure.

The figure suddenly stopped about ten meters away from Su Yichen, and then looked at Su Yichen with a complicated gaze, there was fear, vigilance, fear, nostalgia and kindness in this gaze, this kind of gaze was almost impossible to reveal from the eyes of animals, but the reality was so wonderful.

"What? Don't know me anymore? Su Yichen stood up with a faint smile and looked at the figure, the other party was the little guy he had captured on that original planet. Now, this little guy has been sent to this place to be confined, and it also wears a special collar around its neck, and this collar usually does not hinder any of its activities, but only gives it certain restraints to avoid attacking ordinary people who enter here.

The little guy yelled at Su Yichen, Su Yichen suddenly frowned slightly, and when he saw that Su Yichen seemed to have turned his face, the little guy's roar immediately turned into a soft whine, just like a big cat that saw its owner, and ......walked slowly towards Su Yichen with gentle steps.
