Chapter 541: Energy Consumption for a Faster-than-Light Journey
The Mothership Tomorrow broke away from the curvature, and all the orcs had an indescribable feeling.
It was as if something had changed around them, but they didn't feel anything concrete, and the illusion was very short-lived.
"You don't have to worry about the sense of the gap that has just returned to the normal world from the space with a large difference in spatial curvature." Alan said.
The orcs nodded, this knowledge had already been transmitted in the sleep pod, and the orcs experienced this feeling for the first time, even if they knew it in advance, it was not more enjoyable than to experience it in person.
"It's so delicious to be faster than the speed of light!"
"To be precise, we are not beyond the speed of light, in fact, we are still in the inertial flight state of 0.2 light speed, and what changes is the outside space."
"The energy to sustain distorted space is also quite impressive, the large antimatter core is working at 99%, and the spacecraft is flying at four times the speed of light for a month." The orcs enthusiastically look at the historical data of the antimatter core.
Extracting negative energy from a vacuum is costly, requiring a huge amount of energy, and how much energy is used, the scientists looked at the exponent that represented the energy number and fell into a brief silence.
"It's terrifying, is this consuming the energy of a small black hole object?" Ena stared at the string of data, and the cat's tail was pressed as if it were a static button.
"Obviously...... More than. Efe took a long breath.
If you don't look at the data, you really can't feel the difficulty of interstellar travel.
The data displayed on the information wall alone is enough for the development of several civilizations.
"If you want to maintain that terrifying energy, the production efficiency of raw materials and antimatter products is almost close to a 1:1 exchange ratio."
"Only then will we be able to maintain the curvature of the sea."
After the orcs finished summing up, they looked at Allen's gaze and admired it even more.
Alan couldn't nod calmly at this time, this knowledge achievement was not his credit alone.
"This is the result of the wisdom of all human scientists, and I am not the only one who can study it." Alan shook his head.
Allen's original knowledge of antimatter cores came from a copy of the sci-fi world, and he got a perfect score rating and obtained a full set of production knowledge with a production efficiency of 37%.
Other players also have examples of playing sci-fi dungeons to gain knowledge of antimatter production, but their knowledge sources are different civilizations, so the technical details shown are different, and some technologies even open up a new idea.
Alan used his supreme power to gather all the players who knew about antimatter production technology, and held a brainstorming meeting to publish all the technologies and find common ground.
Then find out the advantages and disadvantages of different technologies from the production routes of different technologies.
After comprehensive melting of all aspects, an antimatter core production technology with an exchange ratio of up to 90% has been released.
Because the exchange ratio is super high, the energy ceiling of antimatter is also very high, which makes the speed ceiling of curvature sailing even higher.
In the academic world of Tomorrowland, curvature navigation is already the ceiling of space flight technology.
Further up the technology involves the higher dimension, that is, the dimension of three dimensions.
When players play to the interstellar age, it is often late in the game, no one has the opportunity to learn high-dimensional knowledge, and the top sci-fi players almost stop at the three-dimensional ceiling.
At this time, the mastermind updated again: "The mothership clock has been updated, and it is now 14:24 on April 1, 06. ”
When the spacecraft is traveling in curvature, the only thing that changes is the curvature of space, and the time expansion conversion of the spacecraft has no effect, and it is still calculated according to the 0.2 speed of light system of the spacecraft itself.
During the superluminal flight of the mothership, the external gravitational waves and cosmic radiation all hit the wall of the mothership of tomorrow, and the wall has the function of collecting information.
Alan asked, "What is the distance from the Rising Star now?" ”
"Report to the master, the mothership is 0.435 light-years away from Tomorrow Star." There was a string of infinitely long small numbers after 0.435, and the orcs glanced at it and nodded secretly.
Stretched from 0.1 light-years to 0.435 light-years, considering that this is a sea trial, only 30 days faster than the speed of light, so this distance change is quite normal.
If Tomorrow continues to drive for a year at four times the speed of light, the distance scale will be stretched to four light-years.
At the end of the curvature voyage, Alan cut out a panoramic view of the starry sky outside, looking at the light points of other stars with relish.
The scale of the universe is too broad, and human beings are too small in the universe.
The orcs rested for half an hour, and the ship completed its steering correction.
Turn on the quantum core, the space bubble wraps around the spaceship, and disappears in space in an instant.
After another month's voyage, Alan returned to Tomorrow's outer space orbit and anchored at the spaceport.
Many citizens took the transportation to the spaceport to welcome them, and their enthusiastic admiration seemed to be able to penetrate the walls of the mothership, which made the accompanying orcs feel very hot.
Alan returns to Tomorrow to analyze the data generated by the light-speed spaceship flying faster than the speed of light.
To this end, he once again gathered high-tech players for brainstorming.
"It's worthy of an antimatter core with an exchange ratio of up to 90 percent, this energy consumption figure is so beautiful, if I could play science fiction copies before, I could do this kind of technology."
"Don't be amazed, our country of tomorrow is now desperately lacking faster-than-light detection technology, as well as faster-than-light communication technology." Alan said in the webcast communication channel.
"Faster-than-light detection is so hard that I didn't learn that field."
"Once I was in contact with an advanced interstellar civilization, but the game is over."
"What about faster-than-light communications? As we all know, the theorem behind every game can be changed slightly, can we find an instant communication method from the data of faster-than-light travel, such as the quantum communication technology of the three-body copy game. Alan further enlightened.
The player [turned out to be Wu Xiaojing] stared at the quantum information collected during the superluminal speed of the light-speed spaceship, and said while thinking: "The quantum instant messaging technology of the three-body world uses high-dimensional technology, and their Zhizi has a high-dimensional space inside, and the high-dimensional space is countless times larger than the three-dimensional, and it is not difficult to control the direction of rotation of the quantum, but we can't do it now." ”
In reality, quantum communication cannot be instantaneous like the three-body problem, because quantum only plays an encrypted role in the communication process.
Encryption is not the same as direct communication, and there is a fundamental difference between the two.
"In the same way, it is difficult for the detection technology to achieve the speed of light, we use space curvature technology to make the spacecraft faster than the speed of light, but the detection technology does not exceed the speed of light, unless you send a small curvature spacecraft to be the pioneer, let it enter the curvature navigation state and run to the front to detect, and then use the curvature engine to run back after the detection." Wu Xiaojing said helplessly.
"We still have to rely on the copy of this world, maybe we can meet a copy like the three-body world again, and then concentrate on obtaining the high-dimensional technology of the three-body problem." Another scientist [Anya Shadow] stepped forward and said.
