Chapter 216: The Appearance of Terrestrial Planets
This is the fourth Awakening Adjustment Period for Hara, Smith, and Lynn on their way to the Alpha Centauri system. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"God, I feel like there's an excavator in my brain that's working day and night." Lynn, who had just woken up, was in a state of malaise.
"Me too, it took me a long time to figure out a few questions these two times, who am I? Where am I? What am I going to do? ”
Smith poured down a mouthful of hot soup and shook his head helplessly in agreement.
"I've dreamed three times in a row that the earth was destroyed......" Lynn continued.
Yuan Haochen glanced at the two of them and didn't say anything.
When it comes to dreaming, Yuan Haochen also has a lot of doubts. There have been two episodes of Roland in his dreams in a row.
Coincidental?!
The devil knows!!
It is said that there is some truth in thinking day and night, but it is not always true.
Roland and Genesis Artificial Intelligence No. 8 are people who have a lot of connections in Yuan Chen's life experience. In particular, he also gained partial memories of Genesis AI 8. Therefore, it is not surprising that they appear in the dream.
It's just that the plot content of these two dreams is very bizarre, showing that Roland eliminated the ordinary inexplicable earthlings, and then she traveled through the universe alone.
"Is it the logical confusion caused by long-term dormancy, or is it a ...... with other meanings," Yuan Haochen thought as he looked out of the porthole.
"Any special instructions from the Earth Command Center?"
Smith took the last bite of soup, his deft tongue swirling around the container.
"I haven't had time to see it yet."
This time, Yuan only woke up a little earlier than Smith and Lynn, and has been helping the two of them to do recovery work ever since.
"I'm causing you trouble again." Lynn said apologetically.
"No, it won't."
Yuan Haochen waved his hand and continued: "Don't forget, there is still the observation message of the Earth Pupil waiting for us. ”
"I'm really looking forward to the situation of those two terrestrial planets, let's hold on." Smith and Lynn sped up eating as they spoke.
.......
After 4 years from Earth, when Future was about 2 light-years away from Earth, the resulting communication delay had become severe.
The messages received by the Mirai spacecraft communication system were all sent by the Earth Command Center two years ago, and the rest of the messages are estimated to be desperately chasing after the Mirai spacecraft's ass.
This includes the information that Yuan Haochen is eager to know, and that Chen Shuqin has entered a deep dormancy.
According to calculations, it will be at least another two years before the relevant news is received, so Yuan Haochen had to try his best to calm his emotions and wait quietly and helplessly.
Yuan Haochen's parents sent blessings and greetings as usual, and naturally mentioned Chen Shuqin's recent situation.
From their euphemistic words, Yuan Haochen could deduce that Chen Shuqin's condition was still worsening. Moreover, this time, he did not receive a video or voice message from Chen Shuqin.
"Is she already in a coma? , I hope that when my news reaches Earth, she will still be able to hear my voice......" Yuan Haochen could only pray silently in his heart, and the actual situation was indeed as he guessed, although the alliance and the Chinese government sent the world's top medical experts, but all they could do was to delay the speed of Chen Shuqin's life failure.
As Future's distance from Earth continues to grow, communication delays will intensify, resulting in increasingly time-sensitive messages from Earth's command center, especially in the second half of the interstellar journey.
Therefore, the number of emails received in the communication system was not large, and the three of them quickly read it.
After processing the email from the Earth Command Center, they couldn't wait to start checking the signals sent back by the Earth Pupil.
"The signal of the Earth Pupil is still transmitting, do you know what that means?" Lynn asked excitedly.
"What does this ...... mean?" Smith had a bewildered look on his face.
"It shows that there are basically no particularly advanced alien civilizations in the Centaur Alpha system." Yuan explained to Smith, "They can't find the alien Earth Pupil, or rather, they find it but can't destroy the Earth Pupil." ”
"Could it be that they are very curious and deliberately let the pupil of the earth go?" Smith continued.
"Before we know about these two terrestrial planets, there is certainly such a possibility. However, this is unlikely. Yuan Haochen replied without thinking.
"If the Alpha Centauri Galaxy had existed for a long time in a civilized world with the ability to strike in space, then they should have made contact with us a long time ago." Lynn quickly picked up the topic and explained.
"Unless, they deliberately hide and are unwilling to communicate with the civilization of the earth. However, such reasons are hardly convincing. Yuan Haochen added.
In ancient times, when technology was not developed, in order to preserve and transmit information, people used to put a note with a message written on it in a bottle, and then seal it tightly and throw it into the sea. Although the chances are slim, it is possible that the bottles will wash up to shore with the currents and be spotted to know the condition of the person delivering the message.
Although this method is extremely unreliable, modern humans have also sent "modern drifting bottles" - radio waves - to the universe in the vast universe, hoping to communicate with extraterrestrial civilizations.
Radio waves and numbers are the basic language of the universe, and as the closest star system to us, the space agencies of almost all countries have sent radio signals there, but after dozens of hundreds of years, we have not received any response.
"Why are they deliberately hiding? Afraid we're going to take their place? Smith guessed to himself.
"Perhaps, let's stop guessing and see what the Earth Pupil says." Yuan Haochen had already begun to retrieve the signal sent back by the Earth Pupil.
"With !!"
"Look at these images."
As the Pupil of Earth approached the two terrestrial planets of Alpha Centauri B, it captured a lot of valuable images.
In these images, Yuan Haochen and the other three can clearly see the appearance of Alpha Centauri BB1, which is generally a light yellow planet with thick ice sheets at the poles of the planet. In addition, there are many blue-green patches that can be discerned by the naked eye scattered messily across the surface of the planet.
The planet next to Alpha Centauri BB1 appears to be a dark brown patch......
