Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Caged Bird
Why this strange phenomenon?
A civilization has taken a seemingly absurd but correct theory as the truth.
Come to think of it, or is it because of ...... Caused by the "methodology" of physics!
Basic disciplines such as cosmology, high-energy physics, and quantum mechanics do not have a very rigorous foundation.
The basic idea of scientists is to build a model that basically conforms to the predictions, and then use various experiments to verify it.
If the experiment is as expected, then for the time being, the model is correct, and if the data does not, of course the model is wrong.
The famous Newtonian mechanics, the Standard Model, the theory of relativity, and the SchrΓΆdinger equation are all summarized in this way.
There had to be a model first, and then there was something else.
The result is that it is not as rigorous as mathematics.
"We use our observations as a test for physics. But if in the beginning, some information in the universe is lost, and all the observations are mutilated...... The model we built was only in line with the incomplete results. Even if the model is ridiculous and wrong, we don't know it. β
"The original correct model could not be verified because it did not conform to the 'facts' of observations, but was neglected."
"This should be what the marginal civilization wants to tell us......
Yu Yifeng thought about it for a long time, but didn't find any way to crack it...... He believes that the approach to physics is not too wrong.
"You can't take the miscellaneous and unverifiable civil science as the truth, right? At least so far, practice is the only criterion for testing truth. From a scientific point of view, there is indeed no solution to this problem of marginal civilizations. β
Just as he was thinking about it, a text suddenly popped into his mind.
Is our universe at its most glorious age? γ
[Yes/No/Don't know]
Yu Yifeng was stunned, this paragraph of text should be left by a marginal civilization.
"The most glorious years?"
He thought about it for a moment and chose ...... "I don't know".
[We live in a world where the stars are still active, the stars are still brilliant, the black holes have not swallowed everything, and the universe has not been over-expanded to an unacceptable level. Our universe seems to be much more brilliant than the era of heat death. γ
[Our technology can easily transform planets, white dwarfs, neutron stars, and can span hundreds of millions of light-years of distance, and we have achieved so far. Complacent. γ
[No one knows, did we make the same mistake?] γ
[Because we are in a cage that is more than the earth in the era of heat death, we are in this universe, and we never want to think about whether it is missing. γ
Yu Yifeng was completely stunned.
Yes, it has been 13.8 billion years since the birth of this universe, which is not young anymore.
Whether it was ever more brilliant, no one knows.
What was it like in the first few years of the universe, or billions of years ago?
Is it more brilliant than it is now?
Although many scientists speculate that in the first few hundred million years of the universe, the environment was extremely harsh, and there should be no life......
But, who knows?
"Do even marginal civilizations think so?"
Even, at present, it is impossible for all the civilizations of the universe to know this answer, because they have missed this information.
"Is the universe missing?"
What theory is wrong? Is it a set of lies that we weave based on incompleteness?
Quantum theory? Relativity? No, some of these theories are indeed correct, but they are correct under the current conditions. But as long as the universe loses some information, it is likely that we will never discover the true truth.
"If normal physics can't develop, can we only rely on conjectures?"
Relying on all kinds of brain holes to develop science?!
But he also felt that the concerns and conjectures of marginal civilizations were reasonable.
Why was positive matter greater than antimatter at the beginning of the universe? Why is it the way it is? These are unsolved mysteries.
I saw that this line of text continued:
[No one knows if we are in a circle of our own making, spinning endlessly.] γ
[After a long period of development, we have a faint feeling that we have come to the end of science, but we always feel that it is not complete. γ
But we don't know why. γ
[Until we found a poem of a low civilization:]
O caged bird,
When will it come out?
In the evening of dawn,
Singing joyful songs.
O caged bird,
Never sorrowful.
In this man-made paradise,
Live your life.
Caged birds,
is singing in duet with the frog at the bottom of the well;
The world beyond the sky,
They never know. γβ
Is the universe also a cage? γ
[It's just that this cage is big enough that we don't even realize it's just a cage; As big as ...... Civilization is not strong enough, and even if it is aware of it, there is nothing it can do. γ
[This should be part of a strong barrier.] yes, just part of ......]
[The first level.] γ
[We're leaving.] γ
[We will chase the first light that opened the world and retrieve those lost information......]
[As long as we fly to the edge of the universe, we may be able to observe: the first second of the Big Bang.] γ
[Goodbye.] γ
[Marginal civilization, stay. γ
This should be the last piece of information, Yu Yifeng was stunned and stunned for a long time.
This may be the origin of the name "marginal civilization".
How far is the edge of the universe?
How big is the universe?
Anyway, he didn't know. The universe is a high-dimensional one, and even if the new human beings want to emulate it, they will only go around in circles in a three-dimensional space.
Perhaps, for the edge civilization of L8, this powerful and imaginative civilization, it is not easy to run to the edge of the universe. But just because of a conjecture, they put into a huge action, perhaps, they will spend countless years and pay a huge price.
Perhaps, never to come back.
And they did.
"Are all high-level civilizations so chic?" Yu Yifeng's head was blank, looking at the planet under his feet, stunned, stunned......
The evolution of nature continues.
The golden age of science has passed, generations of great men have passed away, and the people's living standards have improved day by day, and they have begun to pursue spiritual enjoyment. Without the intervention of his "god", the entertainment trend soon swept the entire civilization, and capital began to penetrate various industries, including the energy industry.
Whether this civilization can pass the "big filter" is still a question.
Maybe...... Even if you step past the big filter, it's useless. Because of the civilization in the entire universe, they are the only one.
They can also only use the resources of the entire sun. Yu Yifeng didn't expect that this group of goods would be able to reach the level of marginal civilization.
"They were the center of the universe...... This sun was originally created by God. Alas. Yu Yifeng shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"The mission has failed, how do I get out of here?"
As soon as this idea came out, a line of text suddenly appeared in my mind:
[Do you want to leave the universe of "Eternal World 009ddax22qqq22"?] Yes/No] He was stunned again, was what he had just experienced was the "Eternal World"?
He chose "Yes".
["Eternal World 009ddax22qq22" universe, evolution score 7812378, score C-. Before you leave, you can give the Creation Civilization a gift. γ
A series of dense lists appeared in front of me.
"A gift?"
Yu Yifeng found that his authority had been greatly improved, this was a real big cut, the kind that could create things in the void!
He thought about it, added a large area of uranium to the moon, and then, very old-fashionedly, buried an alien spacecraft with a complete fusion engine on it......
Then, he buried an even more advanced spacecraft on Mars, and wrote a series of words on it.
"That's all your dad can help here." He sighed: "Exit." β()
