Chapter 11 Great Development of Science and Technology

With this gravitational wave telescope alone, human observation capabilities surpass those of the green light civilization.

Not only Yu Yifeng, but all astronomers also regard it as a treasure, so this issue was only mentioned in the report, and it was not officially launched. They all know that gravitational-wave telescopes cannot be damaged.

Yu Yifeng immediately called several astronomers, materials scientists, and physicists and asked them to come to the captain's office to discuss the problem together.

Determining the location of humans is very important, and it is related to the next foothold of humanity, but the gravitational wave telescope is just as important.

He had to get the issue out of it with these scientists......

“…… Captain Yu, for your question, there is definitely a risk of damage. ”

An astronomer in his mid-60s explains: "Even if the gravitational-wave telescope is protected by a lot of armor, there is still a risk of damage. The main danger is not cosmic particles, but gamma rays from the sun. ”

"After the Sun exploded, it did not disappear completely, but formed a star similar to a white dwarf. This process of evolution is ongoing, and although the activity is much weaker than before, it is still possible to emit high-energy gamma rays. ”

“…… If these gamma rays happen to hit the telescope, no armor will be useless, and they will all melt in an instant. Although the probability of being hit is not very high, it still exists. ”

Yu Yifeng nodded, this was also something he was more worried about, even if there was only a 1 in 10,000 chance, he didn't want to take it.

He turned to a few materials scientists and asked, "Is there a good solution?" Can our best protective materials block gamma rays? Now, as long as you give me a letter, whether it is resources or energy, you can choose, and you must ensure the safety of the gravitational wave telescope! ”

"Just one word, okay? Or not? ”

One of the most prestigious materials scientists, named Simov, pondered for a long time, and finally shook his head in embarrassment.

"Stellar-level gamma rays are not something that our materials technology can resist. Except for Noah's shell, whether it is the Martian saucer material or the green light civilization material, none of them can resist the ......."

"Unless we can make the entire defense device big and thick, tens or hundreds of meters thick, the kind ......"

"Our spacecraft is traveling at close to the speed of light, and it is very dangerous to build things outside, and moving large masses out of the ship will lose the speed of the spacecraft for nothing......"

Speaking of this, Simov paused, "So I think the best way is to wait a few more years."

The farther we are from the Sun, the less likely we are to be hit by gamma rays. And the activity of the sun also decays over time...... Because of the close to the speed of light, one year inside us is equivalent to about five years in the outside world. ”

Yu Yifeng understood. He sighed, it seems that this problem is unsolvable in the short term, either take a risk or wait for a while......

Science is like this, it is impossible to make any changes because of the will of a certain leader, and even extraterrestrial materials cannot do it, let alone human materials. Even the planetary-level superfleets have been turned into interstellar dust by supernovae, which is enough to see the powerful power of gamma rays......

Unless, like the Noah's civilization, technology has advanced to an unbelievable level, they may be able to manipulate the cosmic constant, the rules of the universe, the laws of physics, and so on, so that Noah's hull can safely resist the entire supernova.

Naturally, Simov couldn't have agreed to Yu Yifeng because he said something very seriously.

These scientists are all the top scientists in the human world, and they are naturally not good people, and it is impossible for them to pat their chests and say that they will be able to do it. This is entirely a matter of personal morality, and these great scientists are able to reach such a situation, and naturally have their own moral standards.

Yu Yifeng frowned, feeling very hesitant, should he take a risk, or wait a few more years?

"I think it's better to wait a few years." The older astronomer spoke: "According to the current sky map, there are no other stars on our path, and the star 187J3X1 at 21.3 light-years away is already the closest and better choice for us. ”

"Even if we use a nuclear bomb explosion to change the direction of motion, we can only change the ...... a little," said one physicist, "and at this speed, we can change so much that it is almost impossible for the spacecraft to fly directly towards star 187J3X1......"

In fact, after discussing with physicists, they generally believe that changing direction will cause a large loss of Noah's kinetic energy, and the current shortage of human resources requires a strong relativistic effect to rush.

Seeing this, Yu Yifeng could only calm down.

In fact, he also felt that he was too impatient, and he really wanted to get out of the current resource dilemma by getting rid of the planet as soon as possible.

But even with an accurate map of the starry sky, humans can't adjust their orientation dozens of light-years apart. After all, this is not just a matter of snapping a faucet with your hands, but a large-yield nuclear bomb, which must be done with caution......

So for the next period of time, he also calmed down and stopped asking this astronomical question. He was only focused on the reform of the social system and other scientific and technological processes.

I have to say that there are too many directions for people's scientific research, and the 30,000 scientists on the Noah are a little insufficient.

Flying Saucer Creation, Mars Virus, Longevity Virus, Green Light Drone, Perfection, Curvature Space, Sun Explosion, and many more...... These aspects can be said to cover all fields of science, biology, physics, chemistry, aerospace and so on, and any breakthrough can light up a large number of science and technology trees.

Scientific research reports are like assembly lines, and breakthroughs in science and technology seem to be brainless......

Busy and happy! It's a feeling like no other.

In the past, the busyness was to deal with life-and-death crises, but now the busyness is completely self-inflicted.

The social system is being greatly changed, the structure of the spaceship is being greatly changed, and the pace of science is also keeping up with the pace, which makes people feel that social changes are changing with each passing day.

At the same time, Yu Yifeng also felt his progress. He was finally able to understand many esoteric reports, and he was able to say a few words on many advanced topics.

Lines of formulas, laws and laws, contain infinite charm and beauty, and every time a difficult problem is solved, the joy is incomparable. Even Yu Yifeng felt this way, let alone the group of scientists who bore the brunt of it.

They work feverishly, not for money, not for honor, but genuinely from the bottom of their hearts.

So much so that the government has begun to impose a minimum time to leave work at the latest: 10 p.m. You are not allowed to stay in the lab beyond this time!

There was also a small wave of protests...... Of course, the protests were ineffective.

First of all, materials science has finally made large-scale progress, and with so much extraterrestrial material inspiring, these scientists would be pigs if they hadn't progressed.

Felix, Simov and others warmly invited Yu Yifeng to participate in the press conference of new materials.

A material launch that divides the era!
