Chapter 2 Unknown Yaw
Didi Da ......
The wake-up bell that hasn't been changed for 9 years is not that Mengxian is unwilling to modify it, but although there are many sounds in the database like stars, those sounds or music are like stars far away in the sky, whether it is lyrics or music, it makes people sound not intimate at all, but it makes him feel like the existence of another world. The mix of the various sounds of the so-called instruments, the strange tones of the vocals, and the more strange and difficult lyrics really make it feel like there's nothing to listen to at all. I heard that these sounds called music on the earth have made countless people crazy, and those creators have shocked many people, and these things have made Mengxian unknown and confused.
In addition, the fast food cubes that make people's tongues feel less and less special, it seems that the types of MSG reserves have become less and less recently, resulting in a lot less variety choices for unified rationing, but fortunately, sweetness has always been one that Mengxian can never get tired of, no matter what the mood is, one grain down, the unpleasant feeling will leave, and all the attention is slowly shifted to the taste, savoring the mystery of it.
The small talk in the community is talking to people or artificial intelligence, Mengxian has never been able to tell the difference......
Three green pills in 6 hours, a necessary medicine for space travel, I heard that if you don't eat it, you will really die......
The title party skipped all the information released by the General Staff, and any news about the Earth was probably the only thing the body craved every day.
Well, what else?
…… By the way, and the most important thing......
Supply Warehouse......
The supply warehouses that can be received every few dozen years are also the basis of the entire Kwafu plan, and there is no one of the important tasks and grand festivals of the whole ship. Every time the supply warehouse was received, all the crew, including the commander-in-chief of the fleet, would be nervous and could not sleep well for several months, and many of them relied on drugs to maintain their normal schedule. In order for this task to be successfully completed, everyone must be prepared to sacrifice their lives at any time, and the supreme order is that even if the resources and personnel of the whole ship are lost, as long as the supply warehouse is received, everything can be started again.
For a long time, the most difficult thing in the outer space exploration program is not to build a spaceship, but how to ensure the performance of the spacecraft during the voyage. Because the solar system is located on the periphery of the Milky Way, where the matter is sparse, the distance between the various star systems is calculated in light years, on the basis of the theory of relativity, in the existing material world that human beings feel, it is impossible for any object to break through the barrier of the speed of light, and human beings want to reach other star systems, it takes tens of millions of years. These lengths of time are too far apart from the short lifespan of human beings and the material basis of existing technology. And such a long space trip requires traveling through unknown space, where there are no supplies, only countless unknown dangers.
However, human beings have not given up the dream of traveling to the stars and exploring unknown space, and the road ahead is long and indefinite, and it cannot stop mankind's determination to break through. After hundreds of years of thinking and demonstration by countless scientists, on the basis of the spacecraft's acceleration and the rational allocation of resources and fuel, the method of arranging supply boxes on the predetermined route in advance was finally determined, so as to provide a guarantee for the exploration spacecraft to reach the nearby galaxy.
The supply crates on the predetermined route can not only provide the ship with supplies and high-quality nuclear fuel, but also serve as a relay station, connecting the Earth and the ship.
Each crate was tailor-made for the Kwafu based on existing calculations, and almost all of the materials on it, including every rivet on the hull, every connecting rod, and even the wire heads, could be used to replace the wear and tear of the Kwafu hull in space.
It can be said that the supply warehouse is the key to the entire Kuafu plan, the launch time, speed, and the location of the encounter with the Kuafu, the size of the loaded materials and structures can neither be insufficient, nor can they be easily wasted, all the design details of each supply warehouse have been repeatedly scrutinized and verified, as far as possible to be foolproof, on the scale of the universe, every small error for the earth, will be nearly infinitely magnified, in the traditional saying "the slightest miss, the error of a thousand miles" can not be roughly described, hundreds of billions, Even trillions of miles can't be accurately described.
Because in the legend of Kuafu's day-by-day legend, Kuafu's pursuit of the sun failed because of lack of water, this supply warehouse project attached to Kwafu's plan was named the Water Source Project, and the supply warehouse also has a common name, called the water tank.
The purpose of the water source project is to resupply the Kuafu project during the spaceflight, and this project can be said to be the most critical project of the entire Kuafu program, and the resource consumption of this project has even reached more than 95% of the entire Kuafu program.
Since there are no astronauts to operate in the supply box, there are only a few artificial intelligence in a semi-dormant state, which makes the supply bin not too limited in terms of operating speed and internal environment, which greatly reduces the complexity of the entire system, so that it can be used in the most advantageous acceleration and deceleration methods of human technology, making it possible to meet and combine with the Kwafu on the journey.
The supply crates were set up for 319 years before the launch of the Kwafu, and of course this is only part of the story, and the launch of 909 years will continue after the launch of the Kwafu......
…… If the Kwafu had existed in an unknown sky at that time.
"Hey ......"
"Hey, Hey, ......"
"Hey, hey, hey......"
"Huh? ......" Mengxian slowly came back to his senses from his trance, his head was still very heavy, everything in front of him seemed so blurry because of the dilation of his pupils, he himself felt as if he had woken up in an unknown nightmare, and there was no place in his body that felt good. He closed his eyes again, and the ninja looked up in discomfort, waiting for the inexplicable dizziness to cause physical discomfort, which slowly improved over time, and after a while, he had to concentrate his attention, and the things in front of him became clear.
"What's wrong?" He subconsciously asked, the self-consciousness has not fully recovered, it is just a mechanical reaction of the autonomic nerves. As soon as this sentence came out, he felt that something in his stomach seemed to be gushing up, he resisted the feeling of retching, swallowed a few times, the muscles of his throat loosened and tightened, and the sweet saliva nourished his esophagus and stomach, his body felt better, and his spirit began to sober up a little. He raised his hand and tried to rub it on his face a few times, wanting to give more stimulation to the numb nerves and make himself feel energetic quickly.
Mengxian's outstretched hand hit the holographic eye again, unsurprisingly, he felt a slightly cold and smooth touch, but his hand retracted in time, and he didn't touch his glasses crookedly. He breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly his whole body seemed to be electrocuted, and then the whole person came to his senses. The tense nerves cleared the uncomfortable feeling out of the body for a while, and at the same time made his movements faster, his eyes opened and focused rapidly, and the scene in front of him also appeared in his mind at the same time, his thinking was running rapidly, and the brain signal drove his hands on the operating handles on both sides of his body, and quickly pressed the keyboard.
Not long after, after Mengxian went through a careful nucleus, his spirit slowly relaxed, followed by a feeling of discomfort that he couldn't tell which organ of the body it was, and the residual feeling of nausea made him swallow from time to time.
"How long have I been offline?" He asked questions as he turned his head from side to side, moving his movable limbs.
"About 19 minutes!" A voice responded, this clear female voice made Mengxian feel kind and comfortable from the bottom of his heart at any time, and the slight discomfort just now was half restored.
"Is there anything in between?" Although after the manual verification just now, Mengxian has completely looked at the real-time situation of the system, all the values are within the safe range, and there is no abnormality, but it has become his habit to always ask more questions recently.
There is no way to do this, since a while ago, when the navigation management department directly under the general headquarters of the spacecraft was positioning in a routine cycle, it was found that the spacecraft had deviated from the established course, and this kind of incident related to the success or failure of Kuafu's plan immediately attracted the attention of the Supreme Command. The Special Investigation Team and the Crisis Response Team were immediately established to investigate the impact of the resource consumption caused by the resumption of the established route on the entire follow-up plan, and the investigation of the cause became the second most important thing.
The impact of this accident on the whole ship is very great, the course of the Kuafu cannot be changed, this can not be changed by anyone, the position of each supply depot is like a lighthouse on the sea to guide the course of the Kuafu, any deviation can only lead everyone to the empty space, and the nothingness there can only bring defeat and destruction.
This incident also came as a great surprise to everyone, and it was completely impossible in human understanding, because the space in which the Kuafu was now located was very empty, and all the known stars had very little impact on the spacecraft due to the distance, and all the data had been calculated hundreds of times, and the deviation event of the course did not exist in theory.
After careful investigation, the navigation management department did not find any problems, and could only put the responsibility on the power department, which is also the department most likely to have problems, 252 groups of 2120 nuclear propulsion devices, as long as there is a small parameter problem during operation, it may have a chain reaction. In addition, due to the lack of resources, individual thruster systems and equipment are aging and cannot be maintained to the best condition, and the probability is that it is the most likely place to go wrong. The most recent deviation from the course 170 years ago was a problem with the power department, so when the investigation was fruitless, the power department became the target of public criticism.
Mengxian didn't blame himself on this matter, he has been working carefully and conscientiously, coupled with Qingyu's right-hand man, each data is a double review method, if there is an abnormality in the parameters, he should find it as soon as possible and report it to the General Staff. However, with the deepening of the investigation, there is also a period of time when the steering engine data of the second power area he is responsible for is missing, which is not an exception in this aging storage system, but at this time it has become a stain on him, and before the final investigation results of the incident, this stain caused the overall comprehensive score of their power department to be deducted.
In fact, everyone knows that the root cause of the matter is not entirely to blame him, the power area equipment is used frequently, and the aging and damage are also serious, and it is the department with the highest maintenance rate in the whole ship. Due to the recent lack of materials, several groups of modules are seriously lacking in maintenance, and data loss is also common. But what is even more coincidental is that the video surveillance system shows that when the course deviates, he is just offline, with a bent body and a low head, which does not look like he is working seriously.
When Mengxian was talked, he realized how serious his condition was, although he reported the symptoms of physical discomfort to the investigation team in time, but no problems were found in the follow-up medical examination, he was stunned when he heard the results, and then he knew that only he could carry this matter. Sure enough, the results came out, because he seriously violated the real-time data man-machine double detection system, but did not cause serious consequences, to give the annual comprehensive assessment of unqualified punishment, if there is no unqualified work in the year, he will be directly dismissed by the power department, delegated to the mechanical maintenance department, waiting for the return assessment.
"Don't worry! No problem! All the data records just now are clear, and I have made additional backups," the other party replied quickly without a pause.
"Well, it's hard work! Green rain. Mengxian was completely awake at this time, and his physical state returned to normal, plus he let go of the big stone in his heart, and his mood was also a little happy.
"You're welcome!" The female voice replied in a timely manner, "I said, what's wrong with you lately, this is the second time, isn't it a good rest." “
"It doesn't seem to be the reason," Mengxian was also quite strange, "And there was no problem with my body last time I had a physical examination, just now I was a little inexplicably dizzy, I can only close my eyes and adjust it, I don't know how to slip away, ah, yes, my sleep quality at night is you monitoring, do you find anything wrong?" “
"There is nothing wrong with the numbers, but the data of the machine is always an aspect, and your own feelings are the most direct reflection. How do you feel? Difficulty falling asleep? Do you dream too much at night? Do you feel like you are holding urine during sleep? ……“
"Wait...... Wait a minute, it will ......," Mengxian said for a while, "You slow down, we don't know telepathy, ask so quickly, how can I answer, the first question hasn't been thought out yet." ”
"It's too slow to answer, it's really troublesome." The female voice complained a little, but there was a moment of stuttering, which made her tone sound a little weird.
Alas...... Mengxian sighed softly in his heart, and only at this time could he feel the distance between the person and the program. Your own somewhat outdated computer hardware causes the intelligent system to occasionally lag and cause it to mishandle human tones.
However, this little problem will not affect Mengxian, compared with the usual monotonous pendulum-like work-life and entertainment mode, this seemingly relaxed and ordinary dialogue can make people feel the breath of life more.
Mengxian turned his head, and the perspective of his holographic eyes moved the display full of data and images backwards to the corner of his line of sight with his movements, and a mature woman in a blue uniform appeared on the other side, it was Qingyu who accompanied him in the bamboo forest that day.
The woman was sitting sideways looking at him, with a hint of a smile on her face, and her hair that had just reached her shoulders was simply tied up, but there was still a strand scattered in front of her eyes, gently swaying as the woman's breath led.
"What do you see people doing for so long?" After a short period of looking at each other, the woman seemed to notice something, her face flushed with a faint pink, and she quickly turned her head to face the display screen in front of her, but Mengxian could obviously see the other party's eyes secretly looking at him again.
"Nothing, nothing......" Knowing that sitting opposite was a virtual AI image, Mengxian was still willing to get along like a real human.
"I said, you can do a special physiological test, maybe it will help you in your current situation." When the woman saw Mengxian turn her head, she turned her head again, and as she spoke, she used her hand to pull the hair that was scattered in front of her eyes behind her ears.
"Hmm...... All right...... Then you can make an appointment for me and see when it is available. Monghyun didn't refuse the other party's suggestion, and he really wanted to say a few words to a strange human.
When was the last time, he didn't remember much, it seemed like a few days ago, or it seemed like a few weeks or months, this kind of memory was rare for him, and every time it was impressive. But there seems to be no clear ruler of time for him, except for the two strings of numbers - 8 digits for the date and 6 digits for the time of the day - which are marked on some important days, and the meaning of which has long been ignored.
"I have already reported your situation to the dispatch command center, and I believe there will be a reply within an hour," the woman's voice quickly interrupted his thoughts.
The communication between artificial intelligence is fast, different from people and people or people and intelligence, fixed programs with powerful computing tools, ordinary operations are in milliseconds.
"Thank you, Qingyu." Mengxian said this reflexively, even though he knew that intelligent programs would not understand the meaning of this sentence in the same way that the human mind would.
"You're welcome," Qingyu replied with a smile, and then his tone changed a little formal. "Mengxian, there are still 15 minutes left before the shift is handed over, please prepare the handover documents as soon as possible."
Understood, please help check the problem at the same time. Mengxian stabilized his emotions and gave instructions to the other party.
In addition to the development of science and technology, the implementation of funds, and the support of most countries in the world, the most important conditions for the implementation of the plan are people, to be precise, a new type of human relationship. With the development of modernization, the changes in human society are developing towards a high degree of independence, and the relationship between family, friends, and especially husband and wife has begun to become more and more unstable due to the influence of various factors.
Networked, intelligent mechanization, remote operation...... Under such convenient conditions, most of the human range of action is "confined" to their own independent space - home.
Human beings can get all their needs, jobs, food, supplies, online communities, smart playmates, and even instrumental sexual partners without leaving home. The process of human development has entered a rapid evolution from a socialized life to a networked society in which individuals are relatively independent.
In the past, the basic unit of the society family and the relationship between husband and wife were ruthlessly broken by the times, so that the marriage relationship has become the most unstable social relationship, with the opening of reproductive rights, more people have given up the lifelong marriage relationship, and chose to maintain a couple relationship that can only last for a short time. The relationship system between husband and wife in human society has been destroyed, resulting in the weakening of family relationships based on it, and some children have many biological fathers and stepmothers, and family relationships in society are becoming more and more confusing.
Independent spiritual personality and life, so that the human individual began to adapt to the space life of the distant journey, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune...... While human footprints are all over every corner of the solar system, although human beings are not satisfied, they are discouraged from the distance of light-year intergalactic travel beyond the solar system. Because the more human beings know about themselves and the universe, the more they discover the unacceptable fact that with the fragile body of human beings and the rudimentary intelligence and technology produced on it, it will never be possible to explore the galaxy.
However, the current reality does not stop humanity's desires, and finally, an organization flashes into the world, and their target is the entire galaxy.
