"You want to be a clone pilot? It's good, but it's not yet, you need to learn a lot of skills to be a clone pilot, and you have to pass a strict physical fitness assessment, and the elimination rate is very high. In addition, it takes a lot of money to buy clones, Aite, take your time, don't rush. ”

Nuel is still quite kind, in addition to being careful about professional issues, he treats other issues very aggressively, and many times he is not a brain at all, and he just talks about it. But after listening to Hong Tao's inquiry this time, he pondered for a while before giving an answer, which cannot be said to be completely negative, nor is it too optimistic.

"Cut, you can pass the coffin test like this, can you still live with me?" This is what Hong Tao thought in his heart, and he didn't dare to say it. But when I think about it, I feel guilty, not because of the grace of saving lives, but because of the brain scanning system in the helmet, for fear that these thoughts will also be swept away by the main brain.

The spacecraft flew in space again, and Hong Tao was finally able to see the panorama outside, but not through the naked eye. The wheelhouse appears to have a whole large porthole, but in fact, it is similar to the rest of the ship, which is sealed by several layers of shells, and there are no windows at all.

The phrase what you see is what you get has become a fallacy in this era, and the portholes, including the scenery outside the window, are all images collected by the camera outside the spaceship, and then processed by the ship's main brain, and projected onto the inner shell of the spacecraft in the form of holographic images. Since the projection is so realistic, it looks like the real thing.

However, there are differences in the details that each person sees each person, for example, Nuel does not need to use projection to observe the external scene, the ship's master brain will send all the processed image and sound signals directly into the corresponding part of the brain, so that he can see all the signals directly in his consciousness.

How to describe this thing, Hong Tao couldn't find the right words, and he couldn't try it, only the clone pilot's brain, which had been strengthened by an external plug-in, could withstand such a large amount of information.

Nuel gave a more vivid explanation, similar to the neuronal headset worn on Hong Tao's head. It is a high-tech product of the Self-Esteem Group, which does not have the original sound such as earbuds and ear packs, but maps the music signal directly to the area of the brain responsible for hearing through radio waves, and then transmits it back to the ear.

Originally, this technology was used by the self-esteem group to protect the copyright of music property, there is no sound to record, and the mapping signals are encrypted, so naturally there is no way to pirate and copy.

But after the application of this technology, other benefits were discovered. For example, while listening to songs, you can talk to others without interfering with each other. Another example is that through this headset, you can have a silent conversation with other people, just like Hong Tao just heard those conversations from the depths of his consciousness, which were sent out by the headphones.

In addition to the panoramic view, after putting on the spacesuit, Hong Tao finally did not have to passively enter a state of fainting when the spacecraft accelerated. At the same time, he also preliminarily figured out the general flight mode of spaceships in this era, which is not flying at all, but jumping!

Nuel didn't give any explanation on this issue, but left the explanation to the ship's mastermind. Hong Tao felt that he was deeply despised, and even Nuel's theory was unwilling to talk about it, and the grade was so low that it could be imagined.

While controlling the spaceship, the master of the spaceship took out one ten-thousandth of the computing power to make himself dizzy, no wonder Nuel was unwilling to waste energy, the gap was indeed a bit too big.

It is said that at the beginning of the New Eden World, when the Emma Empire was founded and there were official written records, the ship could not jump, and even with the most advanced thrusters, it would take days or even weeks to travel between the planets of the galaxy. Exploring other galaxies takes even longer, and is measured in years.

Scientists have worked for generations to increase the speed of the spacecraft, and most of the ideas have been unrealized due to cost and weight. The Uruks developed an acceleration orbit that used magnetic force to catapult the spacecraft, successfully increasing the speed and shortening the range of the spacecraft.

However, the construction cost of the accelerated orbit is too high, and it is very inflexible to use, as long as the speed of the spacecraft decreases, and then if you want to speed up, you must rely on the orbit. This technique can be used between two stationary sites, and is not fundamentally helpful for exploring unknown galaxies.

Just over 300 years ago, the Emma Empire suddenly invented a device called the Jump Engine, which fundamentally solved the problem that had plagued them for tens of thousands of years.

After hundreds of years of research and development, the Jump Engine has been upgraded in many versions to become a cheaper, more reliable, and more efficient full-fledged product, and the ships equipped with it can fly faster than light without the aid of external equipment.

The mastermind of the principle of faster-than-light flight was taught, but Hong Tao didn't understand most of it, and he didn't dare to ask, so he could only nod blindly. But it's not completely unintelligible, and there are a few concepts that are still understandable.

This principle comes from quantum electrodynamics, and Hong Tao has no impression of what this discipline is, as if there is no such thing on the earth. However, quantum mechanics does, and it is a derivative discipline.

Specifically, it is to create a vacuum state without any energy to enclose the spaceship, referred to as an absolute vacuum bubble. There is not the slightest friction in an absolute vacuum bubble, and any object, including light, moves much faster in it.

The jump engine is not actually mounted on the tail of the ship like a traditional drive, it is usually mounted at the front and rear ends of the ship, creating two polarities at start. By repeatedly compressing the two polar disks to create a vacuum bubble until all the energy neutrons and quarks in the vacuum bubble are removed and the entire spaceship is enveloped, the spacecraft can reach superluminal speed.

However, in the initial experiment, people found a big problem, once the spacecraft entered the faster-than-light state, the original action and reaction forces were all invalid, and the time was distorted, and the distance could not be measured at all. To put it bluntly, I just don't know when to stop, and the spaceship can't be controlled.

There are always more solutions than difficulties, as long as there is a need, human beings will tirelessly search for answers, and finally this solution has been found. It was found, not invented, because the source of the solution was not the New Edenians, but from the ruins left over from antiquity.

A device called a gravitational capacitor was widely used in the operating system of the Ancient Stargate, and scientists found that it could collect gravitational signals from space after the spacecraft reached faster-than-light speed.

In this way, the problem of the jump engine not being able to control the start and stop is solved. Simply target the jump near a fixed gravitational signal, and once the gravitational capacitor installed on the spacecraft detects the corresponding gravitational signal, it will cut off the power of the jump engine.

The vacuum bubble could not be maintained, and the spacecraft naturally broke away from the superluminal state and entered sub-light flight, with the pilot taking over the control, and flying as it pleased.

As for the source of these gravitational signals, that's too simple, any galaxy has stars, planets, asteroids and other stars, all of which have stable gravitational values.

In addition, large man-made structures such as space stations and stargates also have a stable gravitational value, and even the spaceship itself has a fixed gravitational value. It really doesn't work, and some gravitational beacon emitting devices in the airspace can also be used as fixed gravitational values.

Hong Tao understood this, it turned out that the spacecraft at this time did not jump wherever it wanted, and there must be a known fixed gravitational value near the target point, such as planets, asteroids, stars, satellites, star gates, space stations, spaceships, gravitational beacons, etc.

Without the gravitational value data input, the jump engine will not start at all, avoiding entering an uncontrolled faster-than-light flight state, and achieving the purpose of protecting the pilot and the spacecraft.

"That's fast!" After Noel piloted the spacecraft out of the space station, it quickly entered a state of transition, and the space distorted into a colorful aurora channel, which was then separated after a few seconds. At this time, Hong Tao saw a unit that could be understood on the mapping screen of the main brain, AU, and the jump distance of the spaceship was exactly 10AU.

That is, in less than ten seconds, the small spacecraft flew 10 distances from the Earth to the Sun. Although the three-dimensional three-axis star map looks quite awkward, it can also be seen that the distance of this jump is really not short, and if you do it a dozen times, you can basically jump out of the galaxy.

In other words, with the jump engine preload time, Nuel's little ship can traverse a galaxy in less than an hour! Hong Tao had to marvel at how well-informed he was.
