Li Heng and others were very interested in this discovery, after all, in the region of the solar system that is not yet a light year, a planet of silicon-based organisms was discovered, which proves that the density of life in the universe is much higher than human expectations.

Judging from the current situation, within two light years of the solar system and the surrounding area, there are three planets with life: the Blue Star Civilization, the Martian Ancient Carbon-based Creatures, and the Candle Yin Star Silicon-based Creatures, and the density of this life planet is quite high.

The three of them studied for a long time, and then they connected the correlation between the silicon-based creatures of the Candle Yin Star and the silicon-based creatures of the Soth civilization.

It is proposed that in the vast interstellar void between the solar system and the ZI galaxy, there is a parent star of ancient silicon-based organisms, or an ancient galaxy once existed.

If it is similar to the state of a wandering planet, it is very likely that the home star of the ancient silicon-based creature is still wandering in this void; If it is an ancient galaxy, then the parent star of the ancient silicon-based creatures is very likely to have been destroyed.

Li Heng and the others once again contacted the Soth scientist Reilly and told each other their findings and conjectures.

After listening to this, Reilly tried to recall the history of the Soth civilization, and then turned on the holographic computer, and retrieved relevant information in the historical database of the Soth civilization for a while, and a large number of materials popped up.

[Before the ancient era of 80.63 million years of the ZI star, the evolution process of life had reached the age of dinosaurs, but in the 80.63 million year of the ZI star, a major change in life suddenly occurred.

According to the paleontological and paleogeological research of the ZI star, it is very likely that the great change in life was caused by an extraterrestrial asteroid hitting the ZI star.

Now, the Zi people are divided into two countries. They are from the republican countries, and they call their country the Republic of Helich. The other was the Sanebas Empire, which was ruled by nobles and slaves. The two countries confronted each other with the mountains as the boundary and fought countless wars - Ancient History of Soth (II)]

Lei Li said while sending the information to Li Heng: "This is the ancient history of our Suos civilization, and now it seems that it has just verified your conjecture Dr. Li." ”

After analyzing the data, Li Heng continued: "It is very likely that the ancient silicon-based organisms came from a planet between the solar system and the ZI galaxy, otherwise it is difficult to explain why the ZI star has always been a carbon-based organism 80.63 million years ago, and in less than 10,000 years in 80.63 million years, a complete ecological chain of silicon-based organisms has appeared. ”

"I don't know if that ancient star is still there?" Reilly said with some regret.

After all, the silicon-based biological varieties of the Soth civilization have suffered heavy losses, and it is very difficult to maintain a complete silicon-based ecology, if they can obtain samples of ancient silicon-based organisms, they can supplement the silicon-based ecological chain of the Soth civilization.

Toyota Ashikaga spread his hands and replied: "We have no way to confirm the existence and location of ancient silicon-based biological planets for the time being, after all, the volume of interstellar space between the solar system and the Zi galaxy is as high as about 100,000 cubic light years, and such a large area is simply looking for a needle in a haystack." ”

"That will have to wait until later." Reilly also knew that there was no way to force it.

"Dr. Reilly, we've already sent you the genetic sequences of those three silicon-based creatures, and the next time we return to Candle Yin, we'll consider taking these silicon-based creatures in mind!" Li Heng reminded.

"You're leaving the Candle Shade?" Reilly hurriedly asked.

Li Heng nodded: "Half an hour ago, Captain Ma Wu has already informed us that we will leave the Candle Yin Star tomorrow. ”

"Oh...... That's a shame. Reilly thought that the explorer could stay on the candle yin star for a while, but he didn't expect them to leave so soon, and he could only accept it, after all, the explorer's itinerary had already been decided.

……

2/24/3 of the galaxy.

When the explorer was preparing to set off again, it was on the Martian territory of the Human Innovation Alliance.

The magnificent Mars orbital air ring, 16 connecting pillars, and the Martian equatorial ring have all been completed, and the completion of the three main buildings has made the Martian Territory feel like a rebirth.

Fang Ping, Sara, Liao Qingsong and others took the mass projector on the equatorial pillar to outer space and came to the city of Phobos, which has completely transformed this Phobos, and it has been transformed beyond recognition.

Standing on the top of the watchtower of Phobos, Fang Ping looked at a silver-gray ring belt, which was surrounding the Martian equator, and he couldn't help but sigh: "It's spectacular." ”

"It's also the first time I've seen a finished orbital ring." Sara was a Sothian, but he had only seen the orbital void in holograms, and they had already declined a lot.

"I heard that the Explorer discovered some new silicon-based organisms on an asteroid?" Fang Ping turned his head and asked.

Sara nodded: "It's the news that just came back yesterday, a large asteroid called Candle Yin Star has been discovered in the North Star region about 8,000 units away from the solar system, and 3 new silicon-based creatures have been found on it. ”

"8000 units? This distance is too far, our spacecraft can only speed 16.8% of the speed of light at its fastest speed, and it will take two years to go back and forth. Fang Ping said regretfully.

"Member Fang, in fact, the alliance's spacecraft technology is developing very fast, and I heard that the Photonic Engine Research Institute is already developing a sub-light engine with gamma ray energy level, which is expected to increase the speed to about 30% of the speed of light." Masashi Kishimoto said with a smile.

Fang Ping shook his head: "The gamma ray energy level is not so fast, after all, the penetration power and radiation dose of gamma rays are very terrifying, even the condensed matter shield is powerless, there is no hope in the short term." ”

"Committee member Fang is right, every percentage point increase in sub-light speed is a huge improvement, but the Gravitational Research Institute seems to have successfully achieved the theoretical verification of the low gravitational field recently, and I think the curvature engine has more potential for development." Sara also said her opinion.

"The curvature engine is also quite difficult, let's not crook the building, let's discuss the next development of the Martian Lord!" Fang Ping hurriedly diverted the topic.

"Now that the mass projector and the space elevator are complete, we want to build Mars into a second blue star." Kishimoto shook his hands.

Sara thought for a moment and proposed, "We can divide the air and earth rings corresponding to the 16 equatorial pillars into 16 zones, so that we can locate each zone according to different functions. ”

Fang Ping clicked on the holographic projection and called up the current simulated planet of Mars, he touched his chin and thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "16 districts are too many, we have to streamline the organization, not make it bloated." ”

"How many districts do you think is appropriate?" Sara asked.

"It is divided into four zones, one zone with four pillars, which occupies just a quarter of the space ring and the earth ring of Mars." Fang Ping said his plan.

"Four districts? That's okay too. Sara nodded.

The next few people discussed things like names and regional functions, and the names were relatively simple, and they named four regions according to the southeast, north, south, and west: the eastern ring of Mars, the western ring of Mars, the southern ring of Mars, and the northern ring of Mars.

After discussing these things, Fang Ping sorted out the results of their discussion and then sent them to the Alliance Council, which can only be implemented after the Alliance Council reviews and approves, especially the division and naming of administrative regions, which cannot be used without the nod of the Alliance Council.
