Chapter 480: Crossing the High Temperature Ion Cloud

It takes some time to adjust to the orbit, at first they rely on the star orbit again to reach sub-light speed, and in a few minutes they break away from the star system and escape into the vast void between the stars Zheng The collectors are a whole group of people who are collectively accelerated by the star orbit, in the same direction in the theory of relativity, the speed is equal, it can be regarded as relatively stationary, and based on the principle of invariance of the speed of light, in the sub-light speed reference frame of the collectors, they can observe each other without being affected by the shrinkage effect.

Even radio communication is no problem, because the speed of light is constant in any frame of reference!

"When we start to slow down, it means that we start to make contact with the nebula on the route, and then our speed will change, so it's very likely that we will be disconnected from each other, so be prepared."

"You must remember that when you feel the inertial pressure, you must immediately start your own antimatter propulsion, and the output power must be grasped as soon as possible, and do not let yourself feel the inertial pressure as the benchmark, which means that the antimatter propulsion and the nebula's reverse resistance have reached a balance."

"When you break away from the nebula, the annihilation reaction of the antimatter shield ahead will stop, and you will feel the inertial pressure of acceleration as a result, and you can turn off the antimatter propulsion."

"Pay attention to the feedback signal of the destination star, as long as it is still in the sub-light speed state, slow down immediately when receiving the feedback signal, and the destination star will not be too far away from you even if it is some distance away after the star disappears, do you remember?" The initial plan of response that had been planned before departure was repeated to prevent individual gatherers from panicking after suddenly disconnecting from their kind, which could lead to errors in the response plan.

This is not impossible, because some of the individuals accompanying him are newborns, and these newborns are much less experienced than the older individuals in the group.

"Remember!" The collectors collectively answered in unison. From the subjective temporal perspective of the gatherers, the foremost gatherer was unsurprisingly suddenly stretched into a long strip, like a noodle with the thickness of a sub-light creature, and then merged into the star rainbow in front of it from the back in a loop.

This is where the 'deceleration' begins. When the gatherers saw this scene, they immediately realized that the foremost clan had entered the nebula, and the huge relative velocity and the Doppler effect had caused this strange scene, and the clan had not been pulled into a 'noodle', and the situation was almost the same as the deformed human face reflected in the concave and convex mirror.

In fact, the gatherers only had time to realize this, and immediately felt a strong drag appear, and the antimatter shield in front of them spontaneously activated, releasing a huge amount of gamma rays to slow them down, and a strong backward and forward inertial pressure appeared, just like the previous sub-light speed deceleration motion.

After feeling the inertia pressure brought by deceleration, Chu started his own antimatter propulsion, without a trace of hesitation, as soon as he started, the output antimatter propulsion of high power was started, and the inertia pressure of deceleration was canceled out, and it was replaced by an inertia pressure brought by acceleration.

At first, after feeling the accelerated inertial pressure, it began to debug gradually, until the inertial pressure disappeared and the two forces were balanced, and then it stopped this behavior.

At this point, it is still sublight, as the Rainbow Effect is still in front of it, but its kindreds are gone.

"It seems that they are in the frame of reference for other speeds, and hopefully they will all be safe." After looking around at first, he muttered to himself that in a different frame of reference, the huge relative velocity would cause some subtle changes in the propagation of light.

Ninety percent of the speed of light, ninety-five percent of the speed of light, and ninety-nine percent of the speed of light, it may seem like the values don't change much, but in fact the difference between them is extremely huge, and the energy consumed for each hundredth of an increase is extremely huge.

The effect of the shrinkage effect made the collectors unaware of the change in time, and they were slowing down when they came into contact with the nebula, and then activating the antimatter propulsion to increase the speed to offset the resistance, a process that took a long time to complete in terms of external subjective time, but the collectors themselves felt that it was very short.

The antihydrogen gas mass comes into contact with the positive matter surging in front of it, and these high-temperature stellar materials come into contact with the antimatter shield and undergo an annihilation reaction, forming a jet of gamma rays mixed with neutron radiation, which is symmetrically distributed with the gamma jet formed by the antimatter propulsion behind.

On the macroscopic scale, the nebula is 'pushed' out of a long vacuum by sub-light-speed creatures, like a series of sinuous giant snakes, as the nebula changes macroscopically, these giant snakes appear more agile and vivid, as if there is real life, and the body length of these giant snakes will eventually far exceed the diameter of the average star system, stretching for several light years.

Perhaps somewhere in this river system, there are such intelligent beings who look up at the starry sky and are surprised to find these 'giant snakes' created by human actions, and then subjectively think that they are a group of cosmic monsters.

Unfortunately, these gatherers can't see it, the rainbow obscures their vision, the size limits their perception, they are like deaf and blind people swimming in the ocean, these swimmers can't appreciate the beauty of the ocean, and they can't realize what they are doing unintentionally, they just swim forward with all their might.

After a while, not much time has passed, and Chu felt the disappearance of the resistance ahead, which means that it has passed through the nebula safely, and the antimatter propulsion, which was originally used as a countervailing force, provides inertial pressure immediately after the resistance disappears, and Chu immediately turns off the antimatter propulsion.

Of course, due to the shrinkage effect, this process is also carried out slowly, but only 'immediately' relative to the beginning.

"It seems that it is safe to pass through, but fortunately, due to the vacuum loss of pressure, the density of the nebula is not large, and it is far from being comparable to the planet's atmospheric environment, otherwise it would be dangerous." Chu breathed a sigh of relief, the action of forcibly crossing the nebula is not much different from what they expected, or it is already idealized, all that remains to do is to wait and receive the feedback signal from the destination star system, and then it can slow down, when it is out of sub-light speed, it is also completed This cross-star flight time seems to stop in the sub-light speed state, there is no suitable reference, the beginning can not feel the obvious change of time from the outside world, if there is no matter in a space, time will lose the meaning of existence.

"It's a signal!" After receiving the signal, Chu immediately decelerates, and the familiar inertial pressure appears again, and the various organs in the primordial body are also squeezed, but fortunately, the collector has a strong physique, this kind of inertial pressure is not a terrible thing, but it is different for humans or Seline.

In the initial subjective perspective, this deceleration process is extremely fast, the star rainbow disappears, and in the blink of an eye it returns to the normal cosmology, and when it recovers its observation ability, it immediately observes that there are multiple gamma ray sources in front and behind.
