Chapter 215: The Exchange of Civilizations in the Universe

Before the last century, mankind's exploration of extraterrestrial civilizations was, first of all, to satisfy a curiosity. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

For an unknown thing, we will always find ways to unravel its mystery. Human beings seem so small compared to the vastness of the universe. Therefore, to a certain extent, the exploration of extraterrestrial civilization can actually be regarded as a process of exploration of human civilization itself.

In addition to satisfying curiosity, exploring extraterrestrial civilizations will provide many benefits to human development:

1. If we can find a more advanced civilization, then it can obviously provide a good reference model for the development of human civilization, so that our development process will take many detours;

2. The continuous rapid growth of population has made it more and more difficult for the earth to support huge energy consumption, and problems such as ecological environment have also greatly affected people's healthy life. Even if there is no crisis on Earth, there may come a time when the Earth becomes uninhabitable, and exploring extraterrestrial civilizations will be the only way for us to carry out interstellar migration, and perhaps we will also get the help of extraterrestrial civilizations.

Although human exploration of the universe has never stopped, human beings have always wanted to find intelligent life in outer space, and hope to communicate with it for mutual benefit. However, there are also many well-known scientists who advocate that it is better for the earth civilization not to actively contact with aliens, should not actively look for them, and even make every effort to avoid contact with them.

Most people believe that, like Earth's civilizations, advanced aliens will have the same desire to conquer and colonize all planets they can reach. Therefore, it is very likely that aliens who are more powerful than us will loot the earth's resources and then fly away, and it is "a little too risky" for humans to actively seek to contact them.

This is similar to Christopher Columbus's arrival on the American continent, and Columbus's arrival was not only not a good thing for the local Indians, but a catastrophe.

At present, when the life and death of the earth's civilization is at stake, mankind's exploration of extraterrestrial civilization has become an urgent task.

As early as a century ago, a large number of scientists, philosophers, sociologists discussed the possibility of communication between us and cosmic civilizations.

Compared with the communication between individual human beings, between countries or between nations, the communication and exchange between different cosmic civilizations need to cross at least huge barriers such as race, ultra-long distance, and technological level differences.

It must therefore be a very complex question, and it cannot be roughly or simply divided into the categories of good or bad faith, or war or peace.

Yuan Haochen also pondered this question.

In his opinion, the contact between different cosmic civilizations is not necessarily a situation of death and death, success and defeat.

At least, the alien doctors in the Creator's civilized world gave Yuan Haochen a lot of confidence.

"In this vast universe, we are so lonely. So, my scientific team hopes to be able to light the spark of life on a nearby habitable planet before leaving this star system......"

From the words of the alien doctor, Yuan Haochen could feel his kindness to other civilizations.

Indeed, when the resources for survival are limited, or when there is an irreconcilable contradiction or competition in the development of the two cosmic civilizations, it is the only way for them to finally go to war. It's a bit like the incessant, endless strife between the nations and peoples of the earth thousands of years ago.

However, when a cosmic civilization has developed to an extremely high stage, perhaps they have long ceased to worry about the foundation for the sustainable development of civilization. In this case, unless this civilization is brutal and murderous by nature, it is difficult to understand why they must bully another weak cosmic civilization.

Just like a rich man, even if he is not willing to give generously for a beggar, he will certainly not go and grab the food from the beggar's bowl.

Unless he's a pervert!!

The same logic exists across races, just as we humans advocate the protection of wild animals and the keeping of pets.

However, we must also admit that some extreme accidents have led to the consequences, for example, if you and your beloved pet pig are stranded in the wilderness of the Gobi, when your life is threatened, you will most likely make a decision to turn your beloved pet pig into a delicious food.

So, we can assume that an extremely advanced cosmic civilization, they have to destroy a few stars in the galaxy to get the resources they want, and if the number of stars to be eliminated is not particularly large, they will have a large number of stars to choose from. I really can't think of a reason why they have to target the weak Earth civilization and thus destroy the solar system.

Of course, if a cosmic civilization is so powerful that it aims to harvest the entire galaxy, then in such a situation, the solar system will definitely be doomed.

However, this will be a matter of another area.

Because there is no basis for communication between us and them, or even the need to communicate.

I'm sure you won't always notice the ant under your feet that might be trampled to death when you walk.

The gap in the level of development of civilization is within a limited range (it is not yet known how to define this range), perhaps this is the premise of communication and exchange between different cosmic civilizations.

"Is there a universal civilization norm in the entire cosmic civilization world?"

Yuan Haochen once envisioned:

[In the vast universe, the cosmic civilizations at the top of science and technology have already signed the corresponding "Cosmic Civilization Guidelines", and the reason why the earth civilization knows nothing may be because we are too weak to reach this level. And it is precisely because of the existence of this "Code of Universal Civilization" that a weak civilized world like the Earth Civilization can develop freely in the vast cosmic space. It's like humans enacting the Wildlife Protection Law, only this time, humans are playing the role of wild animals who don't know anything about it. 】

......

On this day, it was the fourth year that the Mirai spacecraft left Earth.

Fortunately for Yuan Haochen and others, the Future spacecraft is equipped with an artificial gravity system.

Otherwise, under the pressure of microgravity and multiple long-term dormancy, their physical health must have collapsed long ago.

As Dr. Minchi said, it was already clear that every time she experienced an 11-month hibernation, her physical fitness would be severely weakened.

Although, during the adjustment period after each awakening, they will strictly carry out scientific recuperation, exercise and nutritional intake according to the plan, but this can only alleviate the damage but not eliminate the injury.

After the influence of the strange meteorite energy, Yuan Haochen's physical strength was far beyond that of ordinary people. Even so, he can still feel the adverse effects of long-term hibernation on his health.

Smith and Lynn's situation will be much worse, this is the fourth awakening, and the time it takes for them to wake up and return to normal mobility has been extended by 220% compared to the situation when they first awakened.

Because Yuan Haochen was the first to wake up during these dormants, Smith was very Lynn, but he didn't notice the gap between himself and Yuan Haochen.

ps: Today's holiday and rest, because I have been maintaining a high-intensity work state before, I can't get up when I fall asleep during the day today, and I didn't start coding until the evening. So there is only one change today, thank you for your understanding. I wish you a good time on the National Day. (To be continued.) )
