Chapter 153: Escape Plan (Part 6)
Zhang Hong was also among the standing ovations, and he was especially the most enthusiastic.
Zhang Hong knew that at this moment, everyone was not only applauding the Führer, but also applauding Zhao Lan's courage. If Zhao Lan's remarks can bring some changes to the Führer's governing philosophy, or have a certain impact on the many scientific and political elites here, the concept of "science first" will surely be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people if it continues to ferment for a long time.
Humanity may be able to rely on luck to solve this crisis, but good fortune will not always favor humanity. Relying on one's own strength and relying on the development of science and technology to obtain the ability to solve crises and resist disasters is the king.
The head of state pressed down with his hands weakly, calmed down the applause in the venue, and then bowed to Zhao Lan in front of the microphone, and then returned to his own actions and returned the rostrum to Zhao Lan. This time the small turmoil passed.
Zhao Lan also put his gaze back into the venue, and then asked, "Do you have any questions?" ”
Another scientist stood up and asked, "Do you have any ideas on how to solve this crisis?" ”
When the question was asked, the entire room fell silent again. Even the Yuan Capital narrowed his eyes slightly and set his eyes on Zhao Lan.
No matter how much Zhao Lan and the team represented by Zhao Lan contributed to this Star Disaster and solved many puzzles, all of this is not as important as this one thing, that is, how to solve this problem.
Something has happened, and whether it is to investigate the cause or explore the development process, it should serve to solve the problem in the end. In any way, solving problems is the most important and fundamental thing.
At this moment, everyone's eyes focused on Zhao Lan on the rostrum. This made Zhao Lan feel as if he was being scorched by countless flames. Zhao Lan could feel the anticipation in those people's eyes, but unfortunately, Zhao Lan didn't know how to solve this matter.
So Zhao Lan lowered his head, and then said, "I'm sorry." My team and I have not found a solution to this crisis. We have only found out what is happening and what the crisis is likely to do on the planet. As for how to get through this crisis...... We only have some directional ideas, and we need to rely on everyone's wisdom to find specific solutions. ”
"So, what's the directional approach?" The scientist continued.
"It's energy." Zhao Lan did not hesitate to tell the results of the discussion between herself and Li Yunfan. For the answer given by Li Yunfan. Zhao Lan also agreed, "There must be a relationship between the growth of Lobachevsky's space and the explosion of Seamount II, which we have discussed before. We are almost certain that it was the energy from Seamount II that contributed to the development of the warped space, then. There must also be some type and intensity of energy that can restore this distorted space to normal. ”
"What is the probability that you think this is true?" The scientist continued.
Zhao Lan paused, and then said, "I think...... At least sixty percent. ”
"Okay, I don't have a problem." The scientist sat back down.
Zhao Lan looked around the audience again and asked again, "Do you have any questions?" ”
This time there was no response. So Zhao Lan asked again, but still no one responded. Zhao Lan gestured to the presiding officer of the meeting, and then said, "Since everyone has no doubts...... Then my task is accomplished. ”
Zhao Lan stepped off the rostrum and returned to his seat, while the Führer walked over to take Zhao Lan's place.
"Now everyone knows what the crisis is happening to us this time, and they are all very clear about our current level of technology. So, I need you to talk about how we can solve this crisis. What can be done to save the very essence of our human civilization? ”
The foundation of human civilization is undoubtedly the earth. Although human civilization has built Watson City on Mars enough to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, Watson City has essentially been relying on the blood transfusion of the earth to exist. If the earth's material supply is lost, relying solely on the resource circulation in Watson City, Watson City's ability to support the survival of 50,000 people is almost the limit. Although the technology of human civilization has made great progress compared to the solar crisis, in this crisis, the threat to human civilization is not less than the previous one, and if it cannot survive the crisis...... Human civilization will perish, and there will be no second ending.
Fall into a completely unfamiliar, possibly empty space, and then run out of resources. Slowly dying in the midst of technological regression, the collapse of civilization and order, and eternal darkness is a thousand times more terrifying than the direct explosion of the earth that causes the entire human race to die in an instant. 10,000 times.
"It is very difficult to analyze the space with our current level of technology, although we have the general direction of "energy" to solve the problem, but it is impossible to find a specific solution. One scientist stood up and said, "I think...... We may be able to push the Earth out of this Lobachevsky space and push the Earth out of it before it plunges into another universe. ”
"I noticed that the closest space normal point to Earth is only no more than five million kilometers away from Earth. We just need to change the orbit of the Earth at a distance of five million kilometers. "We have mastered the technology of controlled nuclear fusion and built a massive array of planetary engines to propel the Earth into orbit, which is entirely within our reach." ”
Another scientist immediately stood up and said, "I'm against the plan. There are two reasons for this: first, Lobachevsky space is still in constant flux, and now it is the point of normal space, and in five years' time, it may also be eroded by distorted space, and we may still not be able to break free from the fate of falling into other dimensions. Second, the cost of building a planetary engine is too great and the impact on the Earth's structure is too great, and it could plunge the Earth directly into a state of instability, leading to earthquakes and volcanoes at a frequency that we cannot accept. At the same time, the planetary engine will completely destroy the ecological environment above the earth, completely destroy the atmosphere, and make the earth no longer suitable for human life. The price we would have to pay for this plan would be too great. ”
The scientist's proposal sparked a great deal of discussion, and for a moment there was a buzz in the room. Another scientist stood up and expressed his opinion: "With the support of the Earth Harbor and the Martian Harbor, we will make every effort to build a spacecraft that can sail to the Jupiter system, and escape to Jupiter's moons before the Earth finally falls into other universes." You must know that Jupiter's surroundings are not affected by distorted space, and even if the Earth falls into other spaces, the Jupiter system will still exist well in this universe. ”
The scientist's proposal was immediately opposed: "Our construction capabilities are not yet that strong, not to mention the problem of building a base on the moon of Jupiter, not to mention the number of people it can hold, the construction of a spacecraft alone is enough to drag our industrial system to death." Even if our industrial system were to run at full capacity, we would not be able to transport more than 100 million people to Jupiter's moons before the crisis finally erupted. Then a new question arises, who is eligible to flee? Who is not eligible to flee? In the midst of the solar crisis, the City of Life project has been proven to be unfeasible, should we repeat the mistakes of the City of Life in this crisis? ”
"Just because the City of Life project is not feasible from an ethical and human rights point of view does not mean that it is not technically feasible. If our human civilization really faces a life-and-death crisis...... What's wrong with keeping some of the seeds as tinder? ”
"I'm against this plan."
"I have a new proposal......"
This meeting, which was attended by all the elites of all human civilizations, lasted for two days. Over the course of two days, at least 30 recommendations were made and then recorded by specialized personnel. Scientists have heated discussions and debates, and every plan is put forward with skepticism, and every plan has shortcomings of one kind or another.
But it's nothing. No one can expect to find a solution to a problem in just two days without the support of field observations, calculations, and accurate data. It is well known that the main purpose of this conference is to bring together these outstanding scientists and then provide them with a place to exchange ideas and generate inspiration. Here, no matter how absurd, proposals are documented and then handed over to a specialized agency for feasibility analysis after the meeting. There may also be convergence between different plans, and experts will not miss any bright spot in any of them.
The brains of human civilization have begun to function at their most efficient, and it will not be long before a huge amount of information about this crisis will appear, and every individual in human civilization will participate in the cause of fighting this crisis. Zhao Lan knew that the person who stole his spaceship and was trapped in the empty universe at the moment was no exception...... (To be continued.) )
