Chapter Eighty-Nine: Collective Hibernation Program
After reading this report, Yu Yifeng immediately got up and inspected the entire Deep Space.
As far as the eye can see, there are all kinds of dilapidated facilities, disappearing and torn armor plates. There was already a vacuum outside.
Through field visits, the situation was more serious than he had imagined, and the contents of the report were only underestimated, not overestimated.
In a few days, the staff will calculate more complete data, anyway...... Either way, the resources will be innumerable.
"We're going to run out of ice in a few years, and relying on the ship's natural heat dissipation capacity, the industrial capacity will be discount......ed," said Yuriko, who was standing aside.
Again, this is bad news.
Yu Yifeng was facing a broken wall, looking out of the wall, the starlight was quickly passing outside.
Between him and the universe, even the walls were tattered, and there was no obstruction.
How is the current situation so similar to the original Green Light Man...... Without a planet as a backing, and the need to wander long distances, no matter how you look at it, it's a bit empty.
"The resources in our hands must be able to save a little bit and save a little bit."
"A thousand light years away......" Yu Yifeng's brows furrowed tightly.
Crossing a thousand light years and running to another cantilever is the safest and most secure solution.
"Of course, you can run less, but it's not so safe after all."
The long journey, I don't know how many things I have to go through in the middle, don't look at the current major resource warehouses of the Noah, they are still full, and he still doesn't have enough security in his heart.
In fact, at the meeting just now, there were many scientists who collectively appealed and proposed a bold and crazy plan:
…… Collective hibernation!
Through hibernation, the consumption of substances is reduced.
Since resources are a bit difficult, the Gold Coast, large-scale farms, and primeval forests are all closed......
It can't be said that all hibernation is done, as long as a small population is kept and the normal operation of the ship is maintained.
There are many scientists who are willing to stay awake for a long time to engage in scientific research, and as for the problem of longevity, it can be solved with perfect elements.
Well, when this plan was proposed, it was met with unprecedented fierce opposition......
Yu Yifeng also refused without thinking about it.
Collective hibernation, it's a joke, right?
Later, however, after a heated debate, many people suddenly changed the wind and accepted this statement.
"Hibernation...... It seems like...... There is some truth to that. ”
The hibernation chamber is not too difficult for the current technology, and it has long been relatively mature, and the success rate of the medical freezing experiment has almost reached 99.99%.
Hibernation is a technique that originated from the Knicks civilization.
The Knicks have a unique life called the "Winter Frog". Due to certain unique biological components, this "winter frog" can still survive even after being frozen for thousands of years.
The clever Knicks studied this creature and invented the hibernation chamber, which was used to treat insomnia, slow down aging, and more.
Some Knicks people with terminal illnesses also want to rely on this hibernation technique and sleep into the future for disease treatment.
However, these rich people did not expect that civilization has no future......
Of course, these terminally ill patients died in hibernation chambers.
And hibernation chamber technology is also a necessary skill for interstellar navigation. Human biologists have been researching and improving such facilities in case they are needed.
Yu Yifeng returned to his office and said softly: "If the group hibernates, the consumption of resources must be very small. Everyone is hibernating, but it won't cause too many ethical problems. It's like sleeping, but it's a bit longer......"
"And we don't need the entire population to join hibernation, everyone can take turns to thaw work, and they can also have children, which can effectively increase our population."
"Let's get the people used to it first!"
……
In this way, when the various maintenance work of the spacecraft was in full swing, the news of collective hibernation had spread, and the news was like a heavy bomb that was dropped in the crowd of Noah.
This preparatory plan has sparked heated discussions.
Hibernation sounds a little weird...... There are those who are curious and want to try it, and there are those who have goosebumps all over their bodies and can't accept it.
There are also people who worry about whether it will affect the growth and development of children, whether it will affect pregnant women, and so on.
Various experts came out to explain, and they even went to sleep in person...... The whole thing is very big, but overall, it's orderly.
In the present era, the masses of the people are reasonable and trying to adapt to the new things, and the new government has not yet decided whether to implement this large-scale plan.
Because the resources in Noah, after all, are not embarrassed enough to require everyone to hibernate collectively...... If you force it through these hundreds of years, it seems that there is no problem.
"It's just that everyone's life is more embarrassing. Scientific research can also be slowed down by not having enough resources. Well...... The premise is that the resources for repairing the Deep Space do not exceed the standard. ”
Of course, some people think that spending this long and boring time through collective hibernation is actually not bad...... Various debates have been made up in the streets.
"After a few days of acceleration, we can't spy on any information from the outside world......"
In the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Zhang Peng was sighing for a long time.
"In five days, the speed of light will be exceeded, and then the ship will make an emergency stop, turn, re-accelerate, repeat a few times, and then head towards the cantilever of the centaurs, which is expected to sail for more than 300 years...... As long as we get through this last dangerous period, it will be difficult for the other side to catch up with us. ”
"I didn't expect to run to another galaxy cantilever! Incredible! ”
Zhang Peng looked at the picture of the black hole on the screen, which was the external observation image of the spacecraft, and the two clouds of light were all concentrated at the front and back ends, just like two big suns.
This scenario will continue forever...... Hundreds of years!
There will be no changes during this period, except that a few stars in front of you will run behind at any time.
He sighed and said, "But it's a little boring after the novelty and excitement, so flying around like this is even exploring the galaxy?" It doesn't sound romantic at all, it's just flying endlessly in the dark...... It would be nice if the universe were smaller, and the voyage would be too long. ”
Directly across from him, Black is playing the interstellar war game of New Humans VS Destroyers in high spirits.
In order to follow the trend, this latest game was produced in only three days, and it was well received by the masses.
Hei heard Zhang Peng's complaint and said directly: "Actually, there is no need to have this kind of trouble. Hibernation chambers are a common means of interstellar navigation...... It's the equivalent of a sleep, just a few hundred years...... I really don't understand, what's there to figure out, who told us that the speed of the warp is not fast enough? ”
Zhang Peng shook his head and said: "To put it lightly, I have slept for hundreds of years, and I always feel a little unacceptable in my heart...... However, having said that, everyone is asleep, and theoretically there will be no problems, and there will be no troubles such as unclear generations...... But for hundreds of years, it's a bit weird to think about. ”
"Too young, too young......"
Hei said in his heart, but he didn't say anything in his mouth, and the province quarreled with Zhang Peng again.
"By the way, do you know anything else about Perfection? What is the use of this substance, which can transform life, make people smarter, stronger, and then increase their lifespan? ”
Zhang Peng asked again: "Just from this function, it's nothing...... Increasing life expectancy or something, with the improvement of science and technology, it will naturally improve slowly, and it can't be said to be too expensive, right? Now it's all welfare......"
"And smart...... Isn't there a brain chip? The effect of brain chips is better than perfection, right? Although the two can be stacked...... Is it true that perfection has a big, big value that we don't know about? ”
“……”
Black was silent for a moment, and he put down the game in his hand: "Yes, in addition to these functions, it is a valuable trading object of high civilizations, and the price is very high, and it can be used in the trading posts of some high civilizations...... But what exactly it is for, I don't quite know. ”
