Chapter 151: Why Earth? (4th Update)

Zhao Lan is undoubtedly a junior in the scientific community, and it is the first time to participate in such a high-level conference. Thinking of being able to directly face so many scientific masters and idols at the conference, Zhao Lan couldn't help but feel excited.

The meeting started in five days, and there was still plenty of time, but Zhao Lan and Zhang Hong did not dare to slack off. The two of them boarded Zhao Lan's Sylvia spaceship and once again embarked on the journey back to Earth.

The psychological shadow caused by the last incident to Zhao Lan has not faded, but this time Zhang Hong is with him, and Zhang Hong already has a certain status and fame in the scientific community, and he is not afraid of any more accidents with such a scientist.

The two hurriedly returned to the earth, and then discussed some details with some scientists on the earth, and made some calibration of some data and logic and calculation process in this information, and time slipped quietly, and this time the meeting related to the fate of the entire human civilization was also held.

The meeting was held in a large auditorium of the central government of the capital city. The participants included all the important figures in human society. Not only scientists from various disciplines, but also figures in the government, and even the heads of human civilization personally attended the meeting. The total number of participants has exceeded 2,000.

After the head of state delivered the opening speech, the first person invited by the presiding officer of the meeting to speak on the rostrum was Zhao Lan. Experiencing such an occasion for the first time, Zhao Lan was a little excited and a little ashamed at the same time. I was excited because I could get such treatment as a junior in the scientific community, and I was ashamed because Zhao Lan knew that all these achievements had nothing to do with him. These achievements are made by the team of scientists who are hidden in Li Yunfan's base and are outside the mainstream scientific community, and they are just a name.

"I am not a vain man, and if one day you could stand in the sun, I would give you all this honor." Zhao Lan thought silently.

Standing under the spotlight, standing in front of the microphone, facing the thousands of pairs of eyes in the auditorium, Zhao Lan calmed down his excitement, and then opened his mouth.

"Hello everyone, I'm a researcher from the 105 Research Institute. I'm Zhao Lan. Zhao Lan said slowly, "Presumably everyone already knows what happened in the starry sky of our civilization recently...... Since about a few months ago, I have observed the first anomalous disappearance of a celestial object, a distant quasar more than 8 billion light-years away. It was still in my telescope at the last moment. But the next moment, it was gone. ”

"I submitted my observations to the Central Academy of Sciences, and I learned that the disappearance of the star anomaly is not an isolated case. In the months that followed, that number quickly climbed to millions. Millions of known and documented celestial bodies have disappeared from the view of our human civilization. We didn't know what that meant at first, but by chance. I found that somewhere in the space around our Earth, the value of pi is not the same as the value of pi that we calculated......"

Zhao Lan spent more than ten minutes briefly talking about what happened and his own discovery, and then explained to all the participants in the form of virtual animations about Lobachevsky's space and space bending, as well as the fall of the earth and other related events.

Most of the scientists in attendance were unaware of the incident. They were still working on various space stations and research institutes all over the inner solar system and the earth's surface yesterday, and after receiving an urgent notice to attend this meeting, they got such heavy news and learned about it...... It is likely that the Earth will fall out of this universe after some time.

"Based on the calculation of the curvature of space, we speculate that if there are no accidents. In less than five years, the Earth will completely leave the present universe and enter another completely unfamiliar space. At that time, the stars in our night sky will disappear completely, not a single one will remain, even the sun will disappear. Because in calculations, the sun does not fall with the earth into that strange space. We don't know anything about what was in that space or what kind of environment it was. But we are almost certain that in that strange space, there will not be a star that happens to be in a steady state waiting for us at the right distance. ”

Because it was impossible to disclose Li Yunfan's related things. Zhao Lan didn't say anything about that empty universe. Anyway, in this incident, it doesn't matter whether the relevant information of that empty universe is released or not.

And this is undoubtedly a catastrophe for our human civilization. The most likely, and luckiest, thing we could be, fall into an empty space. In that space, the stars that could be closest to us are millions of light-years away. We have no distance, and our group of stars within the order of ten light-years can serve as a springboard for us to develop the means of interstellar navigation. In other words, we will be trapped on the earth, and after the resources on the earth are exhausted, our human civilization will perish. ”

After Zhao Lan finished saying this, a scientist raised his hand. So Zhao Lan signaled: "What is your problem?" Please speak. ”

The scientist said, "Although I don't know the details of this star plague yet, through your account, I still have a question, that is, how can you be sure that the space that the Earth is about to fall into is very empty?" ”

Zhao Lan replied: "It is precisely because the earth is constantly falling into that strange space that the stars in our field of vision disappear, and if there are many stars in that universe, the light of those stars should also reach the earth because of the fall of the earth." The changes we observe on Earth should be: some old bodies disappear and some new ones appear. And we only observed the disappearance of old objects, but not the emergence of new ones, so we are almost certain that the strange space must be empty. Well, we are not observing the emergence of new X-ray sources or gamma ray sources, or any other new radiation sources in any other wavelength band. This is another testament to the emptiness of that universe. ”

The scientist nodded, then sat down. Immediately after, another scientist raised his hand.

"I've had a preliminary look at the content of this star plague before, and I have always had an idea in my mind, that is, since we have known the curvature of space in advance and built a space model for it, then we can find a "point" that exists in space near the earth and is not affected by the surrounding curved environment, at which we should be able to observe all those celestial bodies that have disappeared in the earth's field of vision. ”

"We've done it." Zhao Lan nodded, "The result of the verification is that all the stars that seemed to disappear on the earth and nearby appeared again in that particular observation point. This is a strong argument for our view that the stars themselves have not changed, but that the Earth or the environment around the Earth has changed so that they cannot be observed. At the same time, this verification also shows that our models and calculations about Lobachevsky's space are completely correct, and it also means that our prediction that the Earth will fall into unfamiliar space is also correct. We have detailed information about the verification process, which will be distributed to everyone later with a detailed description of the event. ”

"Okay, thanks." The scientist thanked him and sat down in his seat.

Another scientist stood up: "Excuse me, have you done any research on the cause of the formation of this warped space?" ”

Zhao Lan replied: "There has been research, but there is no harvest at all. Maybe it's a distorted space weapon thrown by a super alien civilization passing by, or maybe it's a special area formed by some unknown physical process in the universe...... There are so many possible reasons that who knows what's going on. ”

The scientist sat down, and another scientist asked his own question: "I noticed that the time of the disappearance of the celestial anomaly coincided with the eruption of the star Seamount II. ”

"My team and I have done research." Zhao Lan replied, "Although we can't be sure, we don't think that there will be a coincidence between the two, and there is a very high probability that there is a causal relationship between them." We believe that the most likely scenario is that there was already a small distorted space region in the solar system that had no impact on the Earth and the space of the solar system, and because of the stimulation or influence of the energy emitted by the eruption of Seamount II, this area suddenly expanded, and eventually affected the Earth, leading to our current crisis. The possible spatial interactions of high-energy gamma rays and neutrino bursts will be attached to the detailed study materials at a later date. ”

Another scientist stood up and said, "I have a question for you. Excuse me...... There are so many planets in this universe, and even in our solar system, there are dozens of dwarf planets above the level, so why is it the earth? Why is the earth suffering such a fate? (To be continued.) )

PS: The fourth watch is coming! Ask for a monthly pass!!! There will be a fifth update in a moment!
