Chapter 529: Proxima Centauri, Here We Come
Gu Dong had already explored the locations around the solar system, but most of them were gravitational circles and void traps, and they were barren where the sun could not shine.
He hasn't explored Proxima Centauri yet.
Like the Sun, Proxima Centauri is within the Centaur Galaxy, one-half the distance from the Sun to Sirius.
So if you want to explore the next stop, you have to explore what's near Proxima Centauri?
It's not okay to send warships directly, after all, I don't know the environment of Proxima Centauri, although the battleships he built can already travel interstellarly, but because the battleships are all made by earthlings, most of the materials are relatively fragile, so it's best not to risk it for a short time.
Now the Monster has become the symbol of the Monster Company and the Huaxia Kingdom, and it needs to guard the earth.
Therefore, only a few large probes can be developed and sent to explore the path.
The void around the solar system is not going to go out, because there are too many gravitational traps, and he can only create a jumping wormhole in the solar system.
Since Proxima Centauri has not been reached, it is estimated that the coordinates of the jumping wormhole will be offset, but it's okay, if one detector doesn't work, send two, and if two don't work, send three.
The project is finalized, and then the launch begins.
Gu Dong sent a notice to the research institute under the monster company to start developing a new detector with the curvature engine, targeting Proxima Centauri.
Today, the laboratories to which Monster Corporation belongs are very large, especially the spacecraft manufacturing laboratory, which has thousands of people.
Although the organization is not bloated, it is indeed a large number of people.
When Gu Dong gave the order, a large group looked at the documents and couldn't help but gasp.
"The foundation is not stable, the foundation is not stable, we are going too fast!"
"Just built a base on Mars, Jupiter hasn't finished exploring, and now it's time to explore Proxima Centauri?"
"Besides, didn't he just destroy Area 51 now, why did he start working on a new project right away?"
"He's always been so fast! I think he's already wanted to explore Proxima Centauri!"
"Is this going to be a real interstellar jump? to go to another star system, to open up another great thing? if you can find a planet on Proxima Centauri that can be inhabited by humans......"
Someone thought of this and couldn't help but tremble with excitement.
As we all know, there is almost no life on other planets in the solar system except for Earth, and although there are primitive bacteria under Europa's ice, it may take millions of years for them to evolve.
By that time, it is estimated that the earth will be gone.
Therefore, if you want to find a planet that really has traces of life and can be inhabited by humans, then there are only outer galaxies.
In an alien galaxy, there is a great sense of anticipation for Proxima Centauri, the closest star to the solar system.
"Do it, do it, do it right away!"
"With the curvature engine, we can already build such a detector. Even starships can go over and explore directly, but there's no need for that!"
"He's going to gain experience in the future. We're using a few probes to explore the way for the time being!"
The researchers at the institute quickly finished their discussions, and then began to activate the robot and develop a new detector.
Monster's R&D speed and manufacturing capacity are already extremely high, and it only took three days to build six detectors.
The probes were all sent out into space, ready for an interstellar jump.
Similar to the exploration of space by some countries announced or live-streamed, the results of this exploration were also announced live to everyone in accordance with the principle of being responsible for all human beings on the earth.
At that time, the footage of the detection of six detectors will even be captured for all human beings to see, study and speculate.
This is not the wealth of a single person or a certain company, but the wealth of all people on the earth, just like the words of the Emperor who landed on the moon, it may be just a small step for a certain person, but it is a big step for the entire human race.
None of them had Gu Dong's experience, and they didn't know that Gu Dong had already gone through the interstellar jump, so they were full of curiosity about the universe.
"Six probe satellites. This is the full amount he ordered to make, we have not made an interstellar jump beyond the galaxy, this is the first attempt. The cost of these six exploration satellites is extremely high, and each one is worth hundreds of millions of Chinese coins. However, this is only a small step in their space program, and if they complete Proxima Centauri, they will take an even bigger step!"
"The starships have already been prepared, but our personnel are still training and preparing! We are busy preparing for the day of the expedition! Our future will not be confined to this small galaxy, as long as we succeed, we will completely jump out of the shackles of the universe! From now on, it will be like a fish in the sea, with unlimited resources and unlimited energy! I look forward to the arrival of this day!"
The person in charge of hosting the live broadcast spoke on TV, his face full of excitement.
Yes!
A lot of people think about this.
Compared to the small planet of the earth, the resources in the universe are almost infinite, as long as they break through the shackles of the universe, then the endless resources will be used by them.
"Below, we'll livestream the Monster Space Agency's exploration steps, and if nothing else, six probes will appear near Proxima Centauri after a ten-minute jump. We're going to get all the information about this galaxy as soon as possible! I wonder if there are any planets with life?"
In front of some computer TVs and some big screens, many people are staring at the big screens, watching the latest live broadcast of Monster Company.
There is no doubt that almost every live broadcast launched by Monster Company recently is a major event, and almost every time it is related to everyone's net worth.
This time, even more not, directly probe the future.
In the video, the people at the Monster Space Agency are already adjusting the coordinates of the six probe satellites, adjusting the jump nodes of the curvature engine.
At the jumping node of the wormhole, there is a large circular robot that is creating a wormhole.
As for the wormhole technology, they have already studied and seen it, because when the aliens arrived, they used interstellar jumping, which is not worth surprising.
"Six exploration satellites are ready, and then, three minutes later, the first exploration satellite will be launched!"
The presenter's commentary popped up.
Countless people raised their heads, full of anticipation.
Three minutes is not a long time, but it is not a short time, and it passes quickly.
“10、9、8、7...... 3, 2, 1, 0, launch!"
As can be seen in the video, the first lesson probed the satellite with a clear blue glow coming out of its tail and then began to rush out in front of it.
With a "boom", the detector disappeared into the darkness.
When everyone saw this scene, they couldn't help but immediately hold their breath, waiting for the jump, waiting for the picture to be transmitted back normally.
Wormhole jumping, full of all kinds of satellites, is not only a test of the curvature engine, but also a test of the materials used to make satellites.
However, Monster was much more prepared than many people thought, and it was only ten minutes after the first exploration satellite was launched.
Suddenly, there was a "pop", and a black picture next to it instantly lit up.
In the picture, a light yellow star appears!
"Wow!"
Seeing this scene, countless people were excited and quickly cheered.
"Awesome, awesome!"
"Haha, Proxima Centauri, we're coming!"
