Chapter 189: Potential Crisis
Yuan Haochen put down the information in his hand and asked, "If we are going to embark on an extremely long interstellar journey, can we use your hibernation technique?"
"It's theoretically possible, but the duration of each hibernation can't be too long. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info," Dr. Minchi said with a smile.
"Theoretically possible? If the time of interstellar travel is expected to be 10~20 years, are you sure? ”
"10 years should be no problem. However, the whole hibernation process may not be very friendly. If you've tried it for yourself, you'll see that long hibernation feels pretty bad. Every hibernation will cause some damage to the body, and multiple hibernations will also have a great impact on the spiritual world of people. Therefore, it is important to schedule at least a one-month recovery adjustment period after each hibernation. Dr. Minchi thought for a moment and replied cautiously.
"However, protracted interstellar travel will also bring great psychological pressure and extreme loneliness and other negative effects to astronauts."
"You're right!" Dr. Minchi agreed.
"How long will it take for such a hibernation system to be built?"
"Soon!"
"What is the weight of the hibernation system, and what about the energy consumption?" Yuan Haochen continued to ask, because for interstellar travel, every detail is crucial.
"Have you started planning a trip to the Centaur Alpha system?" Dr. Mingqi looked at Yuan Haochen and said leisurely, "I will help you design an optimal plan as soon as possible." ”
"Thank you, Dr. Minch!" Yuan Haochen said with a smile.
Yuan Haochen knew very well in his heart that interstellar travel is an extremely huge project, which cannot be completed by his own strength, which is the duty of the entire Interstellar Exploration Alliance, and even more so the duty of the entire Earth civilization.
......
The headquarters of the Interstellar Exploration Alliance, the highest meeting of the Alliance.
The leaders of the nine camps, including the United States, Russia, China, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, France, India, and the Interstellar Exploration Alliance, are discussing something with serious expressions.
"This is the Centaur Alpha System exploration plan, do you agree?" The loud voice of the commander-in-chief of the Interstellar Exploration Alliance echoed in the conference room.
"We have no choice, and in the face of the crisis, the more positive actions the merrier."
"Let's act as soon as possible, we can't afford to sit still."
"We all have no opinion!"
As the commander-in-chief had expected, there was a high degree of unanimity among the leaders of the countries.
"Isn't there a way for the crisis science team to determine exactly when the crisis will erupt?"
"Unfortunately, the timing of the outbreak of the crisis cannot be accurately measured. After all, for the scale of space-time in the universe, one second is not much different from 1,000 years. The commander-in-chief shook his head, he could not answer the question.
"In other words, there is a knife hanging over the head of the earth's civilization at any time, and this knife may fall at any time to send everyone to God."
"That's right, in theory, one second, we may fall into a situation from which we will never recover."
"The Crisis Science team at Alliance Headquarters is working around the clock all year round. I promise that if there is any situation, I will inform the camps as soon as possible. The commander-in-chief added.
"Is the briefing too late, is it any use?"
"At least we can buy you some time to say goodbye to your relatives." The commander-in-chief smiled wryly.
"Well, as always, we will fully support any project with positive significance, please speed up the progress, and hope that the pace of humanity on Earth can be faster than the speed of death."
After the camps reached a consensus, the figures at the conference table began to disappear one by one, except for the corner of the Chinese flag.
The commander-in-chief was slightly surprised at first, and then calmly began to chat with the Chinese president.
"Thank you!"
At the end of the conversation, the Chinese president said something for no reason.
"Haha~, I'm just acting impartially, this is indeed an extremely good young man!" The commander-in-chief laughed heartily.
......
Soon, the Centaur Alpha System Exploration Plan, proposed by the Extraterrestrial Civilization Project Team, was approved by the Alliance's top management.
Since this is a huge project, the three bases of the Interstellar Exploration Alliance will share this mission.
In addition, the original submitted plan has also been modified by the Alliance Headquarters......
"IEA headquarters wants us to transform the [Source of Creation] on Mars."
In Dean Frank's office, Yuan was flipping through the resolutions of the top management of the Alliance Headquarters.
"Yes, this is the opinion of the heads of the headquarters." Frank replied in the affirmative.
Yuan Haochen was silent for a while, and said: "It makes sense for the headquarters to think so, after all, the earth is the base camp of human civilization, and it is definitely the best choice to leave an alien civilization on the earth." ”
"It's just that our renovation plan is going to take a little more effort. But it's certainly much easier than getting the Source of Creation back to Earth from Mars. Dean Frank agreed.
"Okay, we'll have to finish the spacecraft transformation on the Martian base."
"Haha~" Frank laughed, "Don't you want to go to Mars again?" ”
"To Mars!? In a blink of an eye, several years have passed, and I don't know what the scene on Mars is now. “
Yuan Haochen's mind already had the scene of his trip to Mars a few years ago.
Not long ago, I was talking to Trunik about when I would be able to set foot on the land of Mars again, but I didn't expect it to come true so soon.
"You can just go to the Mars base to have a look, the Martian base today is not comparable to the Martian camp of the past." Frank patted Yuan Chen's shoulder and said with a smile.
"Understood."
"Also, how did you think about the astronauts who will participate in the final operation?" Frank said this, and his expression suddenly became solemn.
"I haven't thought about this ...... yet."
Yuan Haochen was quite unsightly, and he showed hesitation on the ground.
"Don't worry, I also hope that you will think carefully before making a decision, after all, you are still young......"
Frank looked at Yuan Haochen with a complicated expression, and after a long time, he said seriously. (To be continued.) )
