Chapter 552: A Magical Discovery

The No. 1 scientific research ship of the Suzaku Fleet of the Ming Empire, at this time, the scientists in the ship are nervously studying the captured biological spaceship, the No. 1 scientific research ship is the most advanced spacecraft in the entire fleet, whether it is the cost of the spacecraft or the advanced degree of the spacecraft, the cost of manufacturing such a scientific research ship is very large, even if the cost of a hundred ordinary motherships is far less than such a scientific research ship, although this scientific research ship is not afraid of comparison compared to other spaceships in terms of attack, But in terms of defense, it is far from being matched by other ships.

Even if it is the latest mothership of the Ming Empire, it is far inferior in terms of defense, followed by the various scientific research facilities above are the most advanced scientific research facilities of the Ming Empire, and the most expensive spaceship in the entire fleet is this spaceship, and the scientists on the spaceship are the treasures of the empire, it is precisely because of this that the protection of this scientific research ship in the war is also the most tight, and even all the protection of this extraordinary warship is all protected by the Ming Empire itself, not the spaceship driven by other subsidiary civilizations.

At this time, the scientists on the first scientific research ship were studying the biological spacecraft of biological civilization, and Zhu Lei also joined it.

"We must immediately study the captured biospaceships, we must figure out the characteristics of these biospaceships, as well as the weaknesses of these bio-warships, as well as the materials of the bones of these bio-ships, you must know that our empire is also one of the best in the entire galaxy in terms of material technology, but these bio-ships can easily bite through our armor, so we must figure out the skeletal structure and bone materials of these bio-ships, I am sure, as long as we study the materials of these bones, Then in the future, the material science and technology of our entire Ming Empire will definitely be of great help.

In addition, all the materials were compiled during the research process, and the results were immediately sent to the Imperial Headquarters. ”

Zhu Lei, who was wearing a protective suit, was researching biological spaceships at this time, and Zhu Lei also found strange places, or strange places, on these biological spaceships.

"Let's take a look, the genetic structure of these organisms is very strange, and it is very different from the spiral structure of our common carbon-based organisms."

Hearing Zhu Lei's words, these scientists near Zhu Lei immediately surrounded him.

"What's wrong!"

"You see, this is the genogram I dissected and intercepted from the captured biospacecraft sample, please take a closer look."

Zhu Lei pointed to the huge virtual screen and said to everyone.

At this time, a genetic map completely different from the carbon-based life spiral structure is displayed on the virtual screen, and as time continues, the genetic map on the virtual screen becomes more and more perfect, and it is obvious that the equipment on the spaceship is depicting the genetic map of this biological spaceship.

Basically, most of the creatures in the universe are still determined by various genes in their nature, so when studying the various creatures in the universe, as long as you figure out the genetic status in their bodies, you can understand the creatures thoroughly.

Listening to Zhu Lei's words, the surrounding scientists came over to take a closer look at the gene map, as the top scientists of the Ming Empire, although most of them are not biology scientists, but because the average life expectancy of the Ming Empire is very long, and these scientists who are the treasures of the country, their life span is much more disabled than ordinary people, even if they are good at scientific research, compared to ordinary people in terms of cultivation, the time is much less, but even so, their cultivation has basically reached the late stage of the Yuan Infant Period, Therefore, although these scientists are not biology majors, their research on biotechnology is definitely no worse than that of biologists in other civilizations, not to mention those professional biologists in the Ming Empire.

Therefore, these national treasures of the Ming Empire must be understandable.

"Oh my God! This is not the genetic map of carbon-based life that we are familiar with, this is the genetic map of silicon-based life, this is definitely a major discovery, you must know that our empire is now famous in the galaxy, and its territory is also very wide, and the people of the empire have been to places that are not few, although many biological races have been discovered, but silicon-based life has never been discovered.

What's more, these silicon-based lifeforms still exist in the form of biological spaceships, and these biological spaceships also have independent consciousness, which is very different from our imagination that each race of biological civilization should only have a single consciousness. ”

When they saw these genetic maps, many scientists were stunned, although the concept of silicon-based life in this world had been proposed as early as the Ming Empire in the 18th century, even in Zhu Lei's original world, it had been proposed by the astrophysicist Julio Shennar at the University of Potsdam in the 19th century.

Although the concept of silicon-based life was proposed very early, and the scientists of the Ming Empire have been working hard to find it since it was proposed, until now, the scientists of the Ming Empire have never discovered the existence of silicon-based life.

Therefore, some people believe that silicon-based life is likely to not exist, after all, it is just a hypothesis put forward by scientists, and it may not exist in the real world.

But now the facts are in front of Zhu Lei and many scientists, it is no wonder that Zhu Lei and many scientists in the Ming Empire are so excited, even if Zhu Lei has already learned from the plane mall that silicon-based life really exists, but after all, different universes, the laws of the universe are very different, and Zhu Lei is very likely that there will be no silicon-based life in the universe where he is located.

Although this is just a biological spaceship of biological civilization now, the biological spaceship of biological civilization is also life, and it is obvious that the biological spaceship of biological civilization is evolved, not manufactured, which means that this biological civilization is a silicon-based biological civilization, which means that silicon-based life really exists in this universe.

So there is no need to be curious about Zhu Lei's shock, because all scientists are in disbelief at this time.

With the in-depth research of the equipment, Zhu Lei and they began to make more amazing discoveries, first of all, the genetic structure of silicon-based life and the genetic structure of carbon-based life are completely two concepts, their genetic structure is not like carbon-based life is a double helix structure, but composed of multiple helix structures, and all genes are not exactly the same, Zhu Lei They found that there are two kinds of genetic structures of this biological spaceship, the first is the triple helix structure, and the second is the five helix structure.

This discovery completely subverted the Ming Empire's previous position on biological genes, after all, in the previous concept, the genes of all living things should be in a spiral structure, and this point has been put forward by scientists since it was considered an irreversible iron law, but today's discovery has completely overturned people's cognition, the universe is really wonderful, and we don't have to sigh about the magic of the universe.
