Chapter 87: Einstein's Greatest Mistake
You see, we've all invented astronomical telescopes that can look out across the starry sky. But there was nothing around, and all the celestial bodies revolved around the sun.
Don't...... Isn't the sun the center of the universe?
Definitely!
Definitely!
The Blue Star people also came to an even more important conclusion: "We are the only intelligent life in the entire universe!" ”
They have ...... in their heads There is no "starry sky", there is no "Milky Way", there is not even a little such concept, thinking that the universe itself is like this.
No then.
The sun is the center of the universe!
……
"It's not over yet!"
Yu Yifeng was extremely angry, of course he couldn't be willing to fail like this, but felt another kind of ...... A heavy sense of mission.
The dark universe, the age of heat death......
There is no bright starry sky, no colorful exchanges, no tragic interstellar wars, there is nothing, and even the universe cannot be ...... The Blue Star people are just stranded on a small planet.
What's more, these Blue Star people don't know it yet, they consider themselves the center of the entire universe, and they always think that they are the pride of the sky......
Yu Yifeng felt a little ridiculous: "However, it's just a low-level civilization, just a poor worm......"
How to pierce this huge iron curtain and let them know the origin of the entire universe and understand the glory that the universe once had was the last difficulty Yu Yifeng faced.
With this sense of mission, he began his final self-rescue.
Because of the cultivation of scientific thinking, the development of civilization is completely spontaneous. With the passage of time, one super genius after another continues to be born.
The frequency of the appearance of great men is very strange, either a swarm of bees or none of them, in fact, this is caused by the development of the times.
The times make greatness.
Quantum theory appeared, and so did the theory of relativity.
The questioning of the two dark clouds and the birth of two top disciplines, representing the golden age of science, have opened again.
This genius, in terms of quantity and quality, is really the pinnacle of the entire history! Planck, Marie Curie, Lorenz, Albert Einstein, Schrödinger, Compton, de Broglie, Dirac......
Albert Einstein, a supergenius who was given great hopes, put forward his own general theory of relativity, which perfectly explained the "deflection of light rays and the precession of Mercury's perihelion".
Thinking beyond the norm has attracted the attention of the whole world.
The reincarnation of history came so quickly that "God" Yu Yifeng himself was a little caught off guard.
He was even a little afraid that these genius scientists would forcibly find out what was hidden behind him!
In particular, the great "Albert Einstein", a naturally born genius who has never received a "thought injection", has made almost the same results as on earth?!
It made his head a little cloudy.
This is the pace of civilization, and it is a spontaneous process of civilization moving forward step by step.
"Good!"
Heliocentrism is still the mainstream of the whole world.
However, this group of geniuses with pioneering thinking made Yu Yifeng see a glimmer of possibility.
After coming back to his senses, he burned with enthusiasm and started to act again, whether he could complete the problem of "marginal civilization" was in the hands of this group of scientists!
On this day, "Albert Einstein" was in his room, perfecting the theory of the universe.
For the origin of the entire universe, it is also an important branch of modern science. Heliocentrism is wonderful and sounds wonderful, but it still can't explain where the sun came from, and they're a group of people who want to explain where things came from in the first place.
At this critical moment, Yu Yifeng injected him with the idea of the "Big Bang"!
I saw that "Einstein" had a flash of inspiration, and something inexplicable suddenly popped up in his mind.
In his current theory of the universe, the universe is not static, but has a tendency to shrink gravitationally. As if the entire universe is to remain static, the only way to do this is to introduce a "cosmological constant" into the equation to cancel out this gravitational pull and keep it static.
Yes, Einstein thought in advance that the universe was contracting, or static, and never thought that the universe was expanding.
"Huh?"
"Could it be...... Is the universe expanding? "Einstein" also didn't know how this idea came about, as if it had taken root in his mind, lingering. This flash, anxious, he kept walking back and forth in the room, anxious.
He inexplicably believed in his heart that this was right!
But he calculated a long list of calculations on paper, and it was impossible to deduce an equation for the expansion of the universe.
Unless the cosmological constant is forcibly changed, it is even more strange......
"yes, there's no observational data to confirm that the universe is expanding." "Einstein" himself asked.
Yu Yifeng was on the side, almost jumping to his feet in a hurry, everything that Einstein pushed down could be understood, and there was really no problem.
There was no choice but to inject him again with the idea of ...... "dark energy and dark matter". It is because of these things that have not yet been observed that the universe is expanding.
This idea is really a bit overdone.
"Einstein" was stunned for a long time, thinking that he didn't know what was wrong, and even began to whimsically correct his mistakes.
If you really want to create an unknown "noun" and explain it to your own science, it would be better to simply boil it down to "God".
Science is all about evidence, and even if he was Einstein, it was impossible to invent some terms to explain himself. In particular, these things don't have any observational data.
"Old Love" sighed, as a strong-willed great man, he had no way to accept these strange thoughts for the time being, so he could only record them in his notebook first and ponder them later.
As for the paper that will just be written...... Then publish it!
Albert Einstein published his magnum opus: "The universe is static, or under the influence of gravity, contraction!" ”
"If the universe keeps shrinking, it may lead to the birth of a singularity. But all the matter observed so far is still not massive enough to produce a black hole, so we are lucky for the Blue Star people. The universe will not perish because of this. This was Einstein's final conclusion.
At least according to current astronomical observations, plus mathematical derivation, it should be like this.
“…… Alas, this is the limitation of the times. ”
Seeing the publication of this paper, Yu Yifeng was stunned to find that after spending so much effort, it had come to an end......
Even a genius like Lao Ai was trapped by the times.
He was still not reconciled.
All the geniuses, one by one, tried the past, and turned out to be ...... None of them were successful!
According to the current scientific methodology, there is really no evidence of any expansion of the universe.
The dark universe has no redshift of starlight, the cosmic microwave background is extremely weak, and the instruments of low-level civilizations cannot detect dark matter and dark energy. Even he, God, could not think of a better way to make them feel ...... "the universe came into being from the Big Bang."
Because all the evidence has been erased by the universe itself.
In the end, Yu Yifeng's physical energy was exhausted and he let out a long sigh.
"They can't even discover dark energy and dark matter!"
"Unless, sailing with faster-than-light curvature, or a higher-level faster-than-light sailing technique, catches up with the last beam of starlight?!" Yu Yifeng pondered, and suddenly found that the difficulty of the entire problem had risen by several orders of magnitude: "Could it be that the difficulty of this topic is to cultivate an interstellar civilization?" Want this interstellar civilization to catch up with the last beam of starlight? ”
"Not really, there is not even a starry sky, so what's the use of interstellar civilization? The universe has expanded to the scale of trillions of light-years, how can it catch up? ”
He felt very embarrassed, meditated, and was stunned.
The development continues......
After the first industrial revolution, the Blue Star civilization soon carried out the second industrial revolution, and finally entered the information age.
But their cosmology has not developed much, and the common people still believe that the sun is the center of the universe!
"Albert Einstein" died, and because of the injection of thought, he struggled with the theory of "the expansion of the universe" in the rest of his life, but there was no particularly good result.
The "Big Bang Theory" has been proposed for a long time, and the result has been called a fantasy......
The notebook left by Lao Ai was re-opened and called ...... "the biggest mistake of Einstein's life".
His theory of the constant of the universe has become a correct doctrine that is accepted by many people.
"It's ...... outrageous, right?! Yu Yifeng couldn't cry or laugh.
……
There are many intelligent people, and with the general belief in science, people have begun to spontaneously study how "this universe" came into being, but all the "hypotheses" have encountered various bottlenecks.
There are some smart people who believe that there is a good chance that this place is virtual and created by God. Everything is so delicate, subtly a little too much, as big as the solar system, as small as an atom, and a little bit of change can make it all fall apart.
It's so weird.
Why is a solitary sun the center of the universe? Just one sun, just right for the survival of life?
Why?
Is there an unknown being watching us?
The Blue Star Man thought so.
