Written before the third part: Another World Episode 2
ββ¦β¦ Jupiter's orbit is still far from us, but its gravitational pull is so great that it affects us more than the Moon, the Sun, and other planets. According to information previously released by NASA, this wormhole suddenly appeared about a year ago, which is a good explanation for the failure of artificial satellites, anomalies in the celestial bodies of the solar system, and so many earthquakes, tsunamis and other disasters on Earth: this huge gravitational pull exceeds the long-standing effect of the gravitational pull of the sun and moon on the earth, so there is a tidal wave that loses its original regularity, the earth's crust and mantle loosen due to a sudden change in the gravitational balance and causes earthquakes, and the water level of rivers rises sharply without warning...... The appearance of wormholes also affects other natural phenomena and celestial bodies, such as the appearance of fewer auroras, violent moonquakes on the Moon, the location of cyclones on Jupiter, and so on...... We are still evaluating its impact on the Earth and the solar system, but so far, the Earth itself is close to completing the adjustment of the balance of power, and it may not be two or three years before it will stabilize. "The astronomer representative has debriefed.
Next, meteorological experts and representatives from China, the United States, and Europe reported on the current climate recovery situation in the affected areas and the objective needs. After that, meteorologists and rescue representatives turned off their own displays.
It was September 1, 2046, the day of the regular videoconference of heads of government around the world, and the speeches of the representatives of astronomers and meteorologists had ended. β
A minute later, only the heads of state were left in front of all the TV screens, and the rest of the staff members were all evasive.
After several delegates exchanged glances, the representative of astronomers from Canada reported to the heads of state in English: "As early as 2016 and 2019, our national astronomical observatory received repeated radio waves from outer space, and the results of the calculations at that time showed that the radio waves were from 1.5 billion light years away. We found that there was a piece of information that could be interpreted in these signals. That is to say, there is an intelligent civilization that deliberately hides the signal radio waves it emits in the radio waves transmitted from 1.5 billion light-years away, and uses this as a cover to finally let the signal reach the earth. β
"What's the decipherment?" One of the European leaders couldn't help but ask curiously.
"It's modern English for sure, but there's very little contentβ" the astronomer typed out a sentence on the screen: "Meet me at the gate." The astronomer continued: "We have found the same signal again, all hidden in various cosmic signals, and the last time it was received was three years ago, it was hidden in a signal from 4.5 billion light-years away. β
"Why hasn't it been made public?" A leader from the Middle East pouted.
"I don't know why, and we're worried it's just a coincidence." The astronomer replied, "Meet me at the gate." What exactly does the gate mean in this sentence, this word is the biggest question. β
"Do you have an answer now?" Middle Eastern leaders continue to ask.
"Could you please contact us about the topic you just talked about, do you have anything in mind?" The astronomer asked rhetorically, not caring at all that he was talking to the heads of state.
"Wormholes?" Several voices said at the same time.
"Yes, we can understand that a wormhole is actually a door, a door that connects different planes."
"Why don't you just use the word 'wormhole'?" The leaders of the South American countries raised doubts.
"Because the concept of 'wormhole' was only proposed in the last century (the concept of wormhole was proposed in 1916, if the error is corrected), it is very likely that the time when the alien civilization sent the message was before that. In addition, the term 'gate' is a good way to describe a space-time hole, especially when two populations that are new to contact and do not speak the same language. Astronomers explain.
"How far is this alien civilization from Earth?" China's leader asked.
"It is estimated that within a distance of 150 light years, it may be even more distant, but then the information we see will not be modern English, and the time it takes for them to get the English vocabulary information back to it, plus the time it takes for them to send it to Earth, cannot be more than 400 years, because the formation of modern English is about the 16th to the 18th century."
"Shall we respond to this message?"
"I understand your concerns, but judging by the fact that the information can be interpreted into English, this extraterrestrial intelligent civilization already knows where we are. It's also strange to us that Earth's civilization is still alive. But there is one thing that makes us more curious -
"Why do they hide information that can be interpreted into English in celestial energy waves?" The question was raised, and the leaders on the television screens were deep in thought.
China's leaders were the first to speak: "They want to connect with the civilization of the earth, but they are afraid that other intelligent civilizations will know." β
The astronomer nodded: "Very good, Mr. President, your thoughts are the same as we speculated. In addition, we believe that the wormhole in Jupiter's orbit is also the ...... placed there by this intelligent civilization" As soon as the words fell, the leaders on the screen showed surprised and angry expressions, after all, this wormhole has brought great disasters to the people of all countries. ββ¦β¦ They put there a wormhole, on the one hand as a landmark, to meet us there; Wormholes, on the other hand, can do space travel - "The astronomer's words came to an abrupt end, followed by a brief silence.
The U.S. leader understood what astronomers meant: "So you want us to support the space program to the wormhole?" The other leaders were expressionless, waiting for the astronomers' response β all knowing in their hearts that it was completely unacceptable to invest large sums of money and valuable resources in a high-risk space program at a time when disasters on Earth are frequent and humanitarian relief is paramount!
The representative of the astronomer looked at the colleagues next to him, and after a brief eye contact, several people sat upright together and nodded affirmatively.
A third of the country's leaders left the screen as a protest against such "unreasonable" plans. The leaders of China, the United States, Russia, Europe, Japan, India, and other countries with space technology have all stayed behind to hear about this bold but slightly absurd topic, "Tell me about your plans." "Said the American leader.
β¦β¦
A month later, on October 1, the National Day of the People's Republic of China, heads of state or representatives from all over the world gathered in Beijing to participate in the review ceremony. After the review, the heads of state presented honorary medals to the representatives of the rescue teams to recognize the immortal merits of all the rescuers present and still fighting in the disaster area.
In the evening, the regular meeting of world leaders was held at the Beijing International Convention Center. After the regular debriefing, the astronomer representatives once again introduced the space program to the wormhole, this time without any leaders or representatives leaving the table, and everyone listened very carefully.
"We will vote on this plan tomorrow," the Chinese president said. Dear friends, no matter what decision you make, we will respect your choice 100%. β
On October 2, 10 minutes after the end of the voting, the results on the screen showed: more than half of the leaders agreed to implement the "To the Wormhole" space program, and the vote was valid!
There was a round of applause, but no one showed excitement or joy, and some even frowned and sighed - everyone knew that this would be a difficult and long project, and its results would be at great risk, even ruined. No one said anything against it, because it was clear to those who were against it that there was a need to carry out the plan, and that disaster relief on earth was equally important, but one was for the long term and the other was for the present, and it took a lot of determination to make trade-offs...... The leaders signed a secret agreement on the spot, and formulated a follow-up cooperation plan, including budget allocation, resource allocation, personnel adjustment, and construction land...... Almost every leader was stunned when he saw the "planned time" figure, but signed the cooperation agreement anyway.
This vote will determine the fate of the earth in the future......
On the eve of the New Year of 2047, the space powers have once again taken a collective action, launching dozens of rockets to nominally send more advanced communications satellites and weather detection satellites to aid in disaster relief.
In the past two months, earthquakes and tsunamis have continued to ravage the world relentlessly, and on Christmas Eve, a dam collapsed under a heavy load, flooding cities and countless lives in an instant, pouring cold water on the emerging hopes; The long-lasting volcanic ash floats in the air, hindering air transportation and blocking sunlight, causing the temperature to plummet in some areas, and the reduction of grain production in recent years has become a foregone conclusion. Hundreds of cities have been destroyed or rendered uninhabitable by disasters, new climates are taking shape, and human activities such as relocation and the search for new settlements are altering the natural landscape...... It will take at least a decade for the Earth and humanity to fully absorb the negative effects of wormhole gravity.
The beautiful flame tail of the rocket, drawing a beautiful curve in the night sky, instead of various fireworks, brings people New Year's blessings, and also pins people's good wishes - in the new year, there will be fewer disasters!
However, people did not know at this time that those rockets were not carrying satellites, but equipment and materials for the construction of a large space station, and the destination was set to Mars orbit. The beautiful arcs of the flame tail are weaving a distant and great dream...... The new year begins with new hope and in anticipation.
The regular meeting is held every month as scheduled, and the rescue team is still rushing to the new disaster area, and the resettlement sites are being built in full swing, the reconstruction work of the disaster area is proceeding step by step, and the rockets are also being launched one after another...... In the new year, humanity is becoming more and more united, and almost all contradictions have been resolved, race, geography, history, politics, faith, status, wealth and poverty, nationality ...... They are no longer an obstacle to human unity, and the years from this to the time when mankind have been united and overcome difficulties have been given a resounding name - "The Great Reconciliation". Instead of highlighting the ruthless destruction of disasters, it highlights the fact that people have finally realized that only by uniting together can we overcome suffering, and once again highlighting an objective fact: in the face of disasters, human beings are weak, but they are also strong.
The "era of great reconciliation" is destined to become the most glorious page of human spirit in human history -- human beings still have infinite possibilities.
