Chapter 130: The 105th Research Institute

In the end, Zhao Lan did not choose to sue the media who violated his name and portrait rights, as well as his ** rights. Because Zhao Lan felt that it was too troublesome to do so. Anyway, most of the time he will stay in the survey observation base tens of millions of kilometers away from the earth, and he can't find himself in some troubles, if he wants to sue those media, he has to return to the earth, and he has to spend a lot of energy and time to prepare materials and deal with lawsuits, Zhao Lan doesn't have the interest or time, so he simply doesn't bother to pay attention to them.

It's just that some good people don't know where to find out Zhao Lan's personal contact information, which made Zhao Lan suffer a lot of harassment during this time. However, after shutting down all non-essential means of communication, those people disappeared, and Zhao Lan finally regained his purity.

Time passed slowly in this day-to-day work and occasional leisure, and after the personnel of Mars Harbor handed over the new spaceship to Zhao Lan, the thief Li Yunfan and the spaceship he had lost gradually faded out of Zhao Lan's mind. Life is very peaceful, and Zhao Lan has always believed that calm is the true meaning of life.

But a letter from the Central Academy of Sciences shattered Zhao Lan's peaceful life. Attached to the letter was an appointment order, which demanded that Zhao Lan immediately hand over the work of the Sky Survey Observation Base and immediately report to a newly established organization called the "105 Research Institute". As for what kind of organization the 105 Research Institute is and what its main responsibilities are, it is not written at all in the appointment order.

Zhao Lan was very confused by this, but the orders from above still had to be obeyed. So Zhao Lan went through the resignation procedures, and then drove his "New Sylvia" spacecraft to the trade route, and then came to the designated place through the trade route, and met the director of the No. 105 Research Institute, Zhang Hong, who came to greet him.

Zhang Hong is a thin middle-aged man who is slightly serious. He wore a crisp uniform, his hair neatly groomed, and his expression was always like a stone, never changing once.

"Hello Zhao Lan, welcome to the 105 Research Institute. Become a member of the 105 Institute. I hope that in the future, you can get along with your colleagues well. After shaking hands with Zhao Lan, Zhang Hong said with a serious face: "The 105 Research Institute is a newly established institution, and many living facilities are not complete. So the living environment may be a little tougher, and hopefully you can adapt to it as soon as possible. ”

Zhao Lan asked with some doubts: "Director Zhang, the living conditions are all trivial, and I have never asked for this, but ...... What is our 105 Institute responsible for? Why am I being transferred here to work? What position will I be responsible for? ”

"The reason you were transferred here to work. It's because you first discovered the phenomenon of celestial disappearance. Zhang Hong replied succinctly: "I have a copy of the information here, and you will understand it after reading it." It should be reminded that this information is classified as top secret and is strictly forbidden to be leaked until permission is obtained. ”

"Okay." Zhao Lan nodded and took the information from Zhang Hong's hand. Zhang Hong turned around and left the office: "You are the last colleague to come to report, and now the employees of our institute have arrived." At 7 o'clock in the evening, there will be a plenary meeting of the institute, which will be attended by all the staff of our 105 institute. There will be a dinner after the meeting. You pay attention to the time and don't miss it. That's right, from now on. This office is yours. ”

"I see, thanks." Zhao Lan nodded, and Zhang Hong left.

Zhao Lan sat on the office chair and opened the document. The first thing that caught Zhao Lan's eyes was the title of the document, a line of very eye-catching black characters.

"Preliminary research and data compilation on the phenomenon of anomalous disappearance of celestial bodies."

"Since the quasar number 23490917DA1E was confirmed to have disappeared, in the months that followed, we have confirmed the anomalous disappearance of one hundred and four more stars. Like the first quasar to disappear, all of these disappearances were sudden, losing all of their radiation in a very short period of time, and no trace of them could be found by observation equipment at any wavelength. And before it disappears. None of them showed any signs of anomalousness. ”

"We suspect that the one hundred and five stars that have been confirmed to disappear are only a few of the anomalous vanishing stars, and that there are many more anomalous disappearances that we have not found. Because according to statistics, all of the one hundred and five vanished stars are river system level existences. None of them are a single star. And with the current observation strength of our human civilization, at such a long distance, we can only see the existence of the river system. Therefore, we have reason to believe that in addition to these one hundred and five anomalously disappearing river-level celestial bodies, there should be more celestial bodies that we could not observe in the first place. ”

"In terms of location, there is no pattern. Statistics show. These vanishing objects are not concentrated in any one direction, but are identical in each direction, and there is no logic or correlation between their positional distributions. Therefore, we can preliminarily confirm that the disappearance of anomalous stars is not a special event in a certain place in the universe, but a general occurrence in the universe. ”

"The distance statistics reveal something unusual. We found that all of these one hundred and five vanished objects were unusually far away from Earth. The farthest object is the quasar numbered 23490917DA1E, that is, the first discovered anomalously disappeared object, the latest data indicate that the distance between it and us is between 9971000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 ”

At the same time, tables based on the time and distance of discovery show that the later the anomaly disappears, the closer it is to Earth. We don't know what that means, we don't know if this is a potential threat to the planet, and we don't know when these potential threats will erupt and actually unfold before our eyes. We don't know anything. ”

"The Central Academy of Sciences organized experts to conduct some analysis of such anomalous disappearances of celestial bodies, trying to explain the event with reasons within a theoretical framework, but so far there has been no progress. A total of seven hypotheses have been proposed, including nebula occlusion, gravitational lensing, light deflection theory, etc., but all of these hypotheses have loopholes that are difficult to justify, so we can think that the phenomenon of star anomaly disappearance is still an unsolved mystery and needs to be continued to study. ”

"It has been suggested that the anomalous disappearance of the star may be related to the recent explosion of the very supernova in Seamount II, because in the timeline, the first star to disappear anomaly occurred shortly after the explosion of Seamount II. However, in the existing theoretical framework, it is difficult to find any possible causal connection between these two events. If it is said that the explosion of a star-level star affected the entire universe, causing more than a hundred river-level celestial bodies to disappear, this is inevitably too sensational. However, some people have added to this theory, and some people believe that the explosion of Seamount II was not the cause of the anomalous disappearance of the stars, but another manifestation of the anomalous disappearance of the stars. In other words, it was the cause of the anomalous disappearance of one hundred and five stars, as well as the explosion of Seamount II. But we can't argue for the time being, and we can't find any evidence to prove or falsify this claim. ”

"We suggest that the Central Academy of Sciences set up a "105 Research Institute" dedicated to the study of such phenomena to continue to pay attention to and study such events, continue to search for and count the subsequent disappearance of celestial bodies, and explore the physical mechanisms behind such phenomena. ”

"Addendum: List of Anomalous Vanishing Objects: Number 1: Quasars...... No. 2: River ......"

This document is followed by a long list. Any one of these lists represents a river-level celestial body. Many of these objects are even larger in mass and diameter than the Milky Way. But they have disappeared from human sight, and many attempts by humans have not been able to find them again.

As for the reason for the disappearance of these stars, no one knows.

Zhao Lan read this information in just a few minutes, and then fell into shock.

"It turns out that the disappearance of quasars that I have discovered is not an isolated case, and there are many other stars in this universe who have also disappeared with it." Zhao Lan thought silently, "One hundred and five river-level celestial bodies...... What kind of power could it be that caused this to happen? The most important point is that the phenomenon of astral anomaly disappearance is not concentrated in one direction of the universe, but is distributed almost randomly throughout the universe...... Can this force have an impact on the entire universe at the same time? ”

The universe is too big, and humanity is too small. In the face of such a majestic power, any human being will be in awe. But the team of scientists is such a group of people, and the more awe-inspiring they are, the more they have to figure it all out.

This is bound to be a very difficult thing, but as long as it is meaningful to human civilization, no matter how difficult it is, people need to do it. Zhao Lan knew that he would probably have to dedicate himself to this matter in the next few years, or maybe a lifetime. (To be continued.) )
