Chapter 324: Goodbye, Wanderer
I don't know when I sleep in spring, and I smell birds everywhere. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The moon hangs high, the sun has not yet appeared, the stars are still full of sky, and the wind and night are still lingering.
The dawn has not yet overcome the darkness, and the dawn still lingers. Early risers rubbed their sleepy eyes, hurriedly dressed themselves, glad they were still alive and ready for the day.
It's an extremely ordinary day, in the eyes of most people and in life.
It was an unforgettable day, in the eyes and life of some people.
Yuan Haochen, who had not slept all night, walked out of the office slowly, bathed in the gradually brighter morning light, and breathed fresh air by the way.
The sun still rises as usual today, selflessly spreading its light to every corner of the dark galaxy, and everything is business as usual.
Today is the day when the first Space City Group leaves the solar system!!
This is a huge project, and in the past month, it has definitely been the busiest day in the history of human space.
As the leader of the interstellar immigration project, Yuan Haochen has a lot of things to deal with, but everything is being carried out in an orderly manner.
Approaching the critical moment, Yuan Haochen's mood became more and more stable, and the busy and anxious atmosphere around him did not affect his mood.
Yuan Haochen looked at the warmer and warmer morning sun, and suddenly remembered a poem.
What a day!
There is a thousand jobs in the garden, and the morning mist has dissipated,
Hummingbirds fly on the petals of honeysuckle,
There's nothing in the world that I want to take for myself,
There is no one worthy of my deep resentment,
I have long forgotten all the misfortunes that I suffered,
Even though my thoughts embarrass me,
No longer think about the wounds on the body,
I stood up, with the blue sea in front of me, dotted with white sails.
This is a work by the Polish poet Miłosz. As a talented poet who loved his homeland but had been displaced all his life, Miłosz's poems contained a lot of pain and confusion. But there is also a deep love for nature and life.
Both depicting suffering and praising the world, these two seemingly contradictory states of life are intertwined and together play out the soul of the psalm.
The interstellar migration camp of the Earth civilization is like the "I" in the poem, about to live a wandering life, full of suffering, longing to return home as soon as possible, longing for this beautiful day, to be able to live a stable and quiet life again.
From all over the world, spaceships and shuttles swayed and flew into space, drifting away in the sky and fading away. These are the last people to belong to the First Space City Group, most of them scientific researchers, and they are making final preparations.
This process of preparation continued until late in the evening, when all the space cities and fleets were finally ready to make their final preparations and ready to go.
The media did not show the footage of the First Space City Group leaving the solar system in real time, because it would have stirred up too many people's sensitive nerves.
......
Night was gradually falling, and Yuan Haochen had already returned to the command center of the Interstellar Exploration Alliance.
In the command center, heads of government from all over the world, as well as high-level officials of the Interstellar Exploration Alliance, are gathered.
"Commander-in-Chief, and leaders. You're all set! ”
Yuan Haochen calmly told everyone.
"Good, good!" The Commander-in-Chief said with relief, "I am glad that in my lifetime, I will be able to see the Earth civilization leave the solar system with my own eyes. ”
The years have not forgived people, and the commander-in-chief is now past his old age, and his energy has long been much less than before, except for some major decisions, most specific affairs have already been entrusted to a few deputy commanders.
"Bless the civilization of the earth and bless every resident of the space city."
"Good luck and a nice trip!"
Other government leaders have also expressed their blessings.
"So, let's go!"
Yuan Haochen nodded and said slowly.
After two long years of discussions, the major political groups have reached a consensus on the social structure and political structure of the space city.
Eventually, all the space cities were established and implemented a unified federal system.
Because everyone knows that even if the second batch of the Space City Group and the third batch of the Space City Group can go smoothly, it will only have a population of less than 300 million. The flame of human civilization is too insignificant compared to the vastness and coldness of the universe.
Against this backdrop, it is all the more important to build a more efficient social and political system.
The unified federal system is actually a composite state structure. The division of powers between the central government, i.e., the federal government, and the governments of the federal states is clearly stipulated in the constitution and cannot be changed arbitrarily unless the constitution is amended. The two sides exercise their powers independently and without interference from the other side within the scope of their constitutional authority. In the event of a conflict between the laws of the two sides, the federal constitution and laws take precedence over the local constitution and laws. In a nutshell, federalism is a polycentric composite republic.
However, there are also huge disparities in the strength of the governments of the federal states, especially the superpowers such as China, the United States and Russia, which account for almost 70% of the population of the Space City Group. Balancing the forces and interests of all parties, like an elephant dancing on the keys of a piano, requires a great deal of political skill.
In the night sky, people can faintly see one shining star after another, these stars are space cities closer to the earth, each star carries hundreds of thousands of people, they are about to leave the earth, leave the solar system.
The central surveillance screen of the command center of the IEA headquarters is also filled with images of the space city. All the deep space resource development fleets and frigates have also gathered around their respective space cities.
"First Space City Group, let's go!!"
Yuan Haochen finally gave the final order.
The space city on the surveillance footage soon changed dramatically. Even with the naked eye, people can feel the "stars" in the night sky suddenly become brighter.
Yes, it was the countless giant black hole engines installed on the Space City that started. The surging power will continue to push the 20-kilometer-long space city to accelerate forward, and gradually break away from the existing orbit and fly into the vast cosmic starry sky.
"Goodbye, my compatriots, goodbye......" the commander-in-chief's voice seemed to be a little choked, "good luck to you, and good luck to the entire civilization of the earth!" ”
"Goodbye, goodbye. We will definitely return to the embrace of civilization on Earth! ”
"As long as the earth's civilization remains, we will eventually struggle for more than !!"
......
Countless messages came from various space cities, and the time of parting finally came.
"Goodbye!"
Yuan Haochen didn't say too much at this time, saying goodbye, one sentence was enough. (To be continued.) )
