Chapter 375: Discovery Center
New Era 6, May 9.
Not far from the Lunar Communications Center, inside a large base, it was busy.
On the underground station of the base, a virtual projection of the [Space Exploration Center] is suspended.
The person in charge is Xiao Bing, who was under Luo Feng before, and the mission of the Space Exploration Center is to explore the universe as the name suggests.
Unlike gravitational waves, neutrinos, and electromagnetic wave detection, the detection technology of the Space Exploration Center adopts the latest generation of quantum wormhole detection technology.
The assistant looked at the data and reported to Xiao Bing: "Director Xiao, all departments are ready. ”
"Let's get started!" Xiao Bing commanded calmly.
At the sound of an order, in the entire control hall, hundreds of people performed their duties.
According to the quantum wormhole jumping law model, coupled with the space-time correction model of the universe, and supercomputing assistance, the first quantum wormhole positioning jump was started.
The system of cosmic space-time correction model is very important, because the universe we see is different from the real universe.
For example, the closest system to the solar system, the South Gate 2 Proxima system, is 4.22 light-years away from the solar system, which means that the situation observed by humans today is the same as it was 4.22 years ago in the Proxima system.
If space-time correction is not made, the location of the quantum wormhole will be the position of Proxima 4.22 years ago.
Cosmic celestial bodies are in displacement all the time, and no celestial body exists at rest.
"Proxima Centauri position corrected."
"Quantum wormhole localization complete."
"Exciting Quantum Wormhole ......"
In one of the communication balls of the Space Exploration Center, the quantum wormhole is activated as soon as it is located.
In Proxima Centauri, located 4.22 light-years from the solar system, a quantum wormhole, which is only slightly larger than a photon, appears near Proxima Centauri.
"Quantum gravitational wave synchronous resonance system activated."
A flood of gravitational wave data is refreshing the display, and supercomputing has begun to use various astrophysical models to comprehensively analyze this data.
Xia Yu on the side looked at the data and suggested to Xiao Bing: "Director, you can start more quantum wormholes." ”
Xiao Bing nodded: "According to Researcher Xia's suggestion, add five more quantum wormholes." ”
“OK。”
After a while, another 5 quantum wormholes appeared around Proxima Centauri.
The gravitational wave data brought by the six quantum wormholes fully parses the situation of Proxima Centauri.
The holographic model building system in the hall analyzes the data based on gravitational waves, and generates the situation of Proxima Centauri little by little.
Proxima Centauri's mass, gravitational strength, and the situation inside Proxima are all generated in the model.
This is much more sophisticated than the observation data of astronomical telescopes, which are like arcade games of the last century, and they are mosaic; Quantum wormhole detection is equivalent to 4K screen image quality.
The staff began to manipulate the quantum wormhole to move slowly in the adjacent system, and each of the six quantum wormholes occupied a position to ensure that the change in the strength of the surrounding gravity could be sensed.
Although the Nanmen II system is a triple galaxy, in fact, this galaxy is not without a regular chaotic motion pattern, but a regular triple star motion pattern.
"There are so many planets." Xia Yu looked at the neighbor model in front of him.
In the Proxima model, which is being generated little by little, there is a terrestrial planet in the orbit of 004.3 million kilometers away from Proxima Centauri, which has a radius of 1137~1142 kilometers (less than half of Mercury).
Proxima Centauri itself is also not large, about 1.5 times the volume of Jupiter, and 150 times the mass of Jupiter, typical of red dwarfs.
In the Proxima system, in addition to Proxima -1, there are two terrestrial planets in an orbit of 32.7 million kilometers and 133.7 million kilometers in an orbit of 133.7 million kilometers, and an asteroid belt in an orbit of 432~677 million kilometers.
Xiao Bing glanced at the data, turned his head and said, "Researcher Xia, just have a preliminary understanding of the situation on Proxima Centauri, and we should continue other work." ”
"Understood." Summer rain comes to hold back curiosity.
The six quantum wormholes jumped into two other star systems at South Gate 2.
As a triad galaxy, the three star systems of Nanmen 2 orbit each other and influence each other, making it difficult for this galaxy to give birth to carbon-based organisms.
Quantum wormholes can be used for detailed gravitational probing, and a galaxy can be mapped in about an hour.
The initial mission of the Space Exploration Center is to explore the stars within 1,000 light-years around the solar system and establish a complete cosmic star map around the solar system.
As for the colonization of other star systems, it is still too early to say, if there are star systems of living planets, maybe new humans will be interested, and other star systems that do not have any life, new humans have no idea of developing them for the time being.
First, over-exploitation of the universe will increase the zero-point energy, causing the expansion of the universe to accelerate, and may attract the attention of the Reaper civilization.
Now the new humans are working faster-than-light curvature spacecraft and quantum communications.
Although artificial wormholes are about to enter the experimental stage, and wormhole jumping spacecraft and quantum wormhole communication can be faster than the speed of light, which can replace curvature spacecraft and quantum communication to a certain extent.
The Nibelon civilization also thought the same way back then, but as a result, the artificial wormhole was interfered with by the other party, and all the spaceships directly stopped cooking, and the reaper civilization was almost the same pot.
I don't need to prepare some back-ups, so I go to the cosmic waves, and I really think that the scythes of the reaper civilization are not sharp.
……
Another mission of the Space Exploration Center is also being carried out.
Another task is the large solar system monitoring network, through the gradual understanding of the situation of the star system around the solar system, and then with the solar system as the center, the construction of three early warning monitoring networks.
Curvature spaceships or wormhole jumps can cause gravitational fluctuations to change, and quantum wormholes can just sense gravitational fluctuations, so as to avoid being raided by people in the solar system.
Three quantum wormhole monitoring networks are located in the 10-light-year circle, 100-light-year circle, and 1000-light-year circle of the solar system.
Coupled with the detection of quantum wormholes arranged on various star systems, it can be detected if a spaceship of an alien civilization enters the solar system.
This monitoring network is not seamless, if the other party also controls the quantum wormhole detection technology and directly jumps the spacecraft into the outer circle of the solar system, then the monitoring network will be useless.
As time passed, Xiao Bing commanded the Cosmic Communication Center to explore one star system after another, and kept a quantum wormhole on each star system.
The Space Exploration Center's communication ball reserve has activated 873 communication balls, which means that they have preliminarily explored 873 stars and the star systems to which these stars are attached.
But the number of 873 stars is not more than 100 light-years beyond the solar system, and there are tens of thousands of bright stars in 1,000 light-years around the solar system.
There are also dark stars that are no less than bright stars, and these dark stars are very faint red dwarfs and the like.
"Huh?" Xia Yulai observed the star system in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.
Hurriedly turned his head to Xiao Bing and said, "Director, the third planet of this star system, please let the quantum wormhole be reconnoitred in detail." ”
"No problem."
The crew manipulated six quantum wormholes to sense around the fourth planet of the star system.
Soon, the situation around the fourth planet was further analyzed through the gravitational fluctuation feedback of the quantum wormhole, and the holographic model was quickly built.
