Prologue Chapter 2 What Should the Sea of Stars Do (2)
In a place like the moon, if it is separated from the government, it will be difficult to survive independently, and the rich will probably not come, maybe from a distance of 400,000 kilometers, you will feel that the mottled light and shadow of the moon have a certain classical romantic atmosphere, but no rich daughter or young master will go to this planet that is always full of decadence and decay in the news to stay even for a week.
This is especially true for surviving on the moon, even in the twenty-second century when life support devices in space were so cheap. There are some things that can never be solved by one person, such as the problem of oxygen supply to such a large urban agglomeration, after all, the formation of planetary atmospheres is still a very difficult subject even today, and the reason why scientists and governments have not given up on this field is purely because of political correctness.
Like the routines of the early part of the last century, it was a minefield, and several scholars tried to point out the blindness of this behavior, but they all ended up in notoriety.
Mei Casey always habitually sits here every day, he has been married once, or divorced once, and now he is living alone with a 13-year-old son, in the eyes of outsiders, life is very unbearable, but it is the so-called self-satisfaction.
This is not to say that his life is unsustainable, this situation will never occur among the citizens of a large country like China, even if the government does not care, there are social groups willing to pay a small price to decorate their own organization with such a dilapidated model, after all, compared to the rescue of broken households, the release of animals is not so popular, and compared to building temples on Mars, feeding some people on the moon is not much investment.
But it is not easy for a man to take care of his son, he is very worried about his son's education, although his son seems to be smart, but if he does not have the opportunity to stay on earth, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a chance to develop in the future. However, he himself was like a refugee, there was no suitable job on earth, archaeology was neither an activity of upper concern nor the possibility of making money.
"You didn't watch the parade?" Wang Xingping noticed that Mei Casey should have been up for some time and was very clean, so he thought he was getting up early to watch the live broadcast.
"I didn't see it, how boring it was."
"But it's going to be a few days before dawn, and it's even more boring not to see something." Wang Xingping said while munching on breakfast, he had not eaten food in the real sense for a long time, the last time was in the army, the company commander himself raised some pigs in the barracks, that is one of the glorious traditions of the army of the Republic, since he came out of the army, he can only occasionally taste authentic steak with his girlfriend in a high-end restaurant in Shanghai.
Coupled with the fact that the moon has a longer day and night cycle than the earth, he was not comfortable for a while, but fortunately, his friendship with Casey is not bad, they like to discuss history together, or he likes to listen to Lao Mei's stories, and he can get some rare comfort from Lao Mei, just like a brother.
What brought them closer together was the events that began to occur frequently last year. Since the controlled fusion technology was finally commercialized 30 years ago, there has been a fierce battle over this new energy source, with China and the United States seemingly forming an alliance of confrontation and cooperation, and Russia and the European Union making some progress in related technologies.
Due to the transformation of the energy landscape, the helium-3 mines on the moon, which had been developed for nearly half a century, have gradually declined, and now the lunar cities have almost become outcasts of the earth, and the government is more enthusiastic about exploring extrasolar civilizations, and some believe that the birth of the solar furnace has made it enough for humans to be at the top of the food chain in the galaxy - if they suspect that extraterrestrial civilizations exist.
There is even a very optimistic mood on the earth, of course, this mood is currently more concentrated among the officials, they think that the second geographical discovery, human civilization will be the same as Spain and Portugal in the past to find that the entire earth civilization has been at the top of the cosmic civilization, they need to conquer before other civilizations awaken, thanks to the blessing of this concept, before human beings have conquered the universe, the new concept armed pyramid scheme organization has already begun to conquer human beings, and recently even the moon has defeated several similar organizations, It's all about taking advantage of the psychology of people being exiled here.
"I guess there's something that will make you less bored." Mei Casey didn't pay attention to the food in Wang Xingping's hand, and said to herself. Wang Xingping is obviously accustomed to the state of his old friend and doesn't care.
"No, do you want to talk about your theory of space-time distortion? What's the difference between that and charcoal burning? Wang Xingping doesn't pay attention to his eating appearance, these things are to complete the task, and he never sees outside in front of Lao Mei.
The projected images have undergone some changes, but the format of the new program has not changed for many years, and it is a political program about the establishment of the Temporal and Space Authority.
"Didn't I remind you to turn off keyword search?" Mei Casey was a little nervous when he saw the program projection called up according to the keywords, in fact, with the advancement of science and technology, people have long been under various surveillance, which is why Mei Casey has only been discussing problems with Wang Xingping in the room, because face-to-face communication is the most convenient, of course, the premise is to block the keyword search system.
Wang Xingping put down the plate slowly and chewed his food, "Look at you are so nervous, my buddy in the Security Bureau told me a long time ago that the current screening is done automatically by the system, such a large amount of information is manual, it would not have been possible to achieve it thirty years ago, and the information screening here on the moon is done locally, and it is so troublesome to send it back to the earth." "Of course, out of respect for Casey, he turned off the power by the way." I mean, it's not that you don't know the situation here on the moon, and you are counting on the opportunity to be transferred back to the earth, who has the heart to screen this information, and besides, what we are talking about is nothing more than the spread of negativity, and they are not anti-party and treasonous, what kind of trick are they grasping......"
After saying this, Wang Xingping walked to the position he was used to, and slammed his body back into the sofa cushion, and the sofa immediately adjusted his posture according to his physical condition.
"You're not coming? The new Thai massage, now Southeast Asia can't go, why not be nostalgic? Wang Xingping is right, since seven years ago, the Thai people rioted and expelled the king of Thailand, and quickly merged with the religious wars in Southeast Asia, the entire Southeast Asia, except for northern Burma, northern Vietnam and Cambodia, which have been de facto incorporated into China's control, other places have long been turned into Shura fields, especially Indonesia, which has been attacked by asteroid debris and contaminated by radiation, as if it has become another powder keg after the Middle East.
"What I want to talk to you about is exactly what is real." Chase Mae saw that the power to the projection screen had been cut off, and then began his topic in a matter-of-fact manner.
"You don't really plan to pull me across, don't you, you usually blow water, I'll say my point again, what's the difference between this thing you said and charcoal." Wang Xingping was obviously a little ridiculous, once again emphasizing charcoal burning, the most famous means of suicide.

"The stability of the ascending environment has nothing to do with the strength of the energy, as long as a critical point is reached, the conditions for the opening of the wormhole can be reached."
"The duration of the wormhole is related to the continuous output of energy, and it is also related to whether it is stable or not."
According to these three small-scale experiments, it has been possible to deduce that as long as there are three civilian-grade solar furnaces with the highest power at present, the wormhole can be stably opened, and the opening amplitude can cover about 20 square kilometers, and there is no need to move through, but to switch to another parallel time and space as a whole."
"Although the calculation of time and energy intensity of parallel space-time is not precisely controlled, it can be roughly extrapolated to a reasonable margin of error."
"That is, the most critical point, that is, the time crossing can be said to be irreversible and untraceable, just like a human fingerprint, the time of each wormhole generation environment cannot be exactly the same, so the space-time management bureau has no way to take the traverser."
After saying this in one breath, Chase Mei took another sip of water to moisten her throat, and then looked at Wang Xingping with expectant eyes......
The so-called time-traveling and space-time distortion is actually just a hypothesis, the test of this hypothesis was originally born after an accident in the Chinese military on the use of solar furnaces to reduce dimensionality, about the situation at that time, there are many rumors among the people, but only rumors, according to Mechay's magic stick, dimensionality reduction, that is, the forced reduction of the three-dimensional world to the two-dimensional world, is achieved by using the principle that all physical systems have a tendency to transform to lower energy levels, which is attributed to an effective means of attack in military theory, Of course, it is limited to theory for the time being.
Previous experiments have been successful many times, but in a test there was an accident, due to the sudden loss of control of the energy generated by solar energy, there was a reverse output of energy, so that the latitude reduction test became a dimensionality ascension, in the space-time distortion formed by huge energy, many people at the test site mysteriously disappeared, according to later unpublished reports, it is likely that there was a situation similar to a space-time wormhole, and the missing person was traveling back to the past.
The reason why it is said to travel back to the past is also because in the four-dimensional space established by the huge return energy, it is theoretically impossible to make a leap to the future period, and the newly generated space-time should be a parallel space with this space-time as the parent body, that is, it must be the space-time stage that once really existed on the plane.
Of course, all this is just a hypothesis, because in any case, the so-called crossing is a non-returnable one, and some scientists and enthusiasts who have been in contact with this area have tried to recreate this scene later. Of course, the initial civilian test has been a matter of popularization of civilian-grade solar furnaces, and it was only more than 20 years ago, because of the control of the military and the government, in fact, the power and output time of the civilian version have been greatly reduced, but compared with the old antiques of the 21st century, it is undoubtedly very advanced. But it is a solar-powered civilian ground effect aircraft, and at present, it seems that people like Wang Xingping who have a little financial ability are still not able to afford it.
Having said that, since then, the relevant folk experiments have been carried out semi-underground, and Mei Casey is deeply trapped in this way, and has deep contact with the people in the circle, and Wang Xingping's information about 'crossing, almost all of them comes from Mei Casey.
From Chase Me's mouth, I learned that a friend of his is currently in Southeast Asia with an institution, whose main research is to serve the recovery of production in the third world, of course, in the name of energy and humanity on the surface, but he is still doing his own research in private - using controlled nuclear fusion to achieve reverse ascension to generate space-time wormholes.
Past experiments were often random and unstable, so that experimental animals disappeared out of thin air, so the United Nations has also specifically called on people with relevant knowledge not to blindly test in vain, and China and the United States have successively released the wind to set up a space-time management bureau is also out of this consideration, of course, people who know the specific situation are disdainful.
"The last three relatively stable test environments have confirmed those hypotheses." Professor Mei was already a little excited when she said this.
"I'm afraid you'll find it interesting."
