4.3 light-years away, the Blue Beavers were still living happily in their own world as usual, unaware that their fate had been decided. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Of course, it is not a simple matter for earthlings to conquer the Blue Beaver people a few light-years away, you must know that although the distance of these few light-years is insignificant to the universe, for the current human beings, it is like a moat!

With the current science and technology of the Empire, it can only research a large spacecraft with a speed of 0.3 times the speed of light, and even if the long acceleration and deceleration time is not considered, it will take more than ten years to fly to the constellation Centauri of 4.3 light years.

More than ten years is too long for the empire, the early Qingquan technology developed rapidly, and in less than ten years, it has become a global giant, and although the empire has not developed much in this more than ten years, it is because the empire has spent its energy on comprehensively improving its own technology.

If the empire spends most of its energy on improving important scientific and technological fields, as it did in the previous Qingquan technology era, I believe that more than ten years will be enough time for leaps and bounds!

After more than ten years of precipitation, the current empire has developed all aspects of technology, and it is time to develop some key areas of technology, such as warp engines for interstellar navigation!

Warp engines are also known as warp engines. It is a general term for a faster-than-light propulsion system and a jumping engine, a faster-than-light engine, and an interstellar teleporter!

In the 50s of the 20th century, the German physicist Heim began to explore the concept of "superspace-time power", and he proposed: "warp navigation" is to use space-time distortion and space-time jump to achieve faster-than-light flight.

He believed that a strong magnetic field could create a gravitational field to propel a spacecraft at high speed. If the magnetic field is strong enough, the spacecraft can enter a second-degree subspace higher than the time and space we are in, traveling faster than the speed of light. As soon as the magnetic field disappears, the spaceship returns to its present space-time.

Heim supplemented Einstein's theory of four-dimensional space-time with the theory of "two-dimensional space", so that the universe became six-dimensional space-time. In Heim's view, gravitational and electromagnetic forces can be converted into each other, so a rotating magnetic field will weaken the Earth's gravitational pull and allow the ship to leave the ground (anti-gravity!). ）。

In 1957, when Heim published his theory, many physicists at the time said that it was difficult to accept it, because they believed that it was difficult to create such a huge magnetic field under the material and technical conditions of the time. It wasn't until Heim's death in 2001 that his theories faded away.

In 2005, Hauzer, a physicist at the Salzgitter University of Applied Sciences in Germany, and his colleague Delescher co-authored an experimental paper based on the Heim Theory to explore the feasibility of making a "chrono engine". Unexpectedly, he was suddenly awarded the 2005 "Nuclear Energy and Future Aviation" project award by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

At the same time, the U.S. Air Force showed great interest in the "chrono engine" capable of exceeding the speed of light, and sent representatives to meet with Hauzer. During the meeting, Hauser emphasized that the plan is still in its preliminary stages, and if it proves theoretically feasible, a test model spacecraft could be built in five years.

Therefore, the paper award issued by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics has caused quite a stir in the global physics community, and this move has recognized part of the Heim Theory to a certain extent.

Then Roger Renard, a space propulsion researcher at the U.S. Department of Energy's Santa Dia National Laboratory, publicly announced that they now have an X-ray generator -- the Z-machine -- that can provide the magnetic field needed for the experiment. "Even if the experiment turns out to be wrong, in my opinion, it is a successful experiment," he said.

As early as May 2015, NASA scientists have carried out research work on the warp engine and tested this sci-fi power system, which has attracted global attention after the announcement!

In fact, based on the study of alpha data, Liu Qingquan knows very clearly that the warp engine is the tool of most cosmic civilizations and astronautics, and if human beings want to develop freely in the universe, they must study this warp engine!

At the same time, Liu Qingquan also had to sigh at the greatness of earth scientists, because according to the theories they published, the direction of earth science groping for warp engines is correct, that is to say, there is no problem with the theory of making warp engines put forward by earth scientists, what is needed is materials, specific methods, and powerful energy!

These three things are the real obstacles that prevent geoscientists from developing warp engines! Materials, huge energy, methods!

The working principle of the curvature engine is to use a strong magnetic field to resonate with space, so as to achieve the purpose of distorting space and folding space, and then use a strong magnetic field to open the folded space, so as to achieve space leapfrog flight, from a space to a very distant space quickly!

In the universe, the speed of light is constant, and the speed of all objects is limited by the speed of light, but warp speed drive is a law that can circumvent this law and avoid the limit of the speed of light by distorting space-time. Spacecraft built according to this theory will be able to achieve spacecraft speeds of 10 times the speed of light, or even dozens of times the speed of light, without breaking the speed of light limit.

According to Alpha's information, Liu Qingquan learned that the warp engine technology can actually be divided into conventional warp engine technology and super warp engine technology!

The conventional warp engine is divided into 10 levels according to the speed of the flight, 1-10 times the speed of light is the 1st level warp engine technology, 11-20 times the speed of light is the 2nd level of warp engine technology, and so on, 10 times the speed of light is a level, and when it reaches 90-100 times the speed of light, it is a 10-level warp engine!

The warp speed engine that exceeds 100 times the speed of light is called the super warp engine, which belongs to the advanced cosmic civilization, and few junior and intermediate cosmic civilizations can develop it.

The empire, which has been fully developed, has long set its sights on the starry sky of the universe, and naturally the research on the warp engine has also been put on the agenda.

With the current science and technology of the empire, it is very likely that the warp speed engine will be created, and the three major influences will be restricted, materials, huge energy, and methods!

In terms of materials, the materials used for the warp engine are certainly not comparable to the materials currently used, which is not just a matter of hardness, but to build the material according to the needs of the design from the perspective of atoms!

Macroscopic things are very easy to deal with, and when smelting materials, what ratio is needed, manufacturing steps, etc., scientists can easily and slowly figure it out.

But this has never been done before when designing and manufacturing materials from an atomic point of view, because the current technology simply cannot be meticulously constructed in such a small world, and an atom is so small that even a small piece of material has an infinite number of atoms that make up it.

There's still a long way to go in building materials from an atomic point of view, and how to influence the atoms so that they align them the way we want them is something that drives scientists crazy, not to mention the materials needed to make a warp engine on a massive scale.

After all, the warp engine requires a huge amount of energy and a strong magnetic field, which will have a severe test of the material, and the material is unqualified, and everything else is empty talk!

The second problem, the huge energy source, is relatively easy to solve for the current empire, after all, controlled nuclear fusion technology has already been developed!

Controlled nuclear fusion technology should be the most powerful energy technology available other than positive and antimatter annihilation, and the energy provided by nuclear fusion technology should be sufficient for warp engine technology.

At this point, the scientists of the empire still have their own confidence, if the energy generated by nuclear fusion technology cannot meet the needs of the warp engine, then mankind will stop thinking about it for the time being, and the importance of energy will not be lower than the importance of materials!

As for the last problem, which is the method, it is actually the theory!

Scientists on Earth have been able to roughly predict the theory of making a warp engine, but these theories are based on the technology and understanding of the time, and have not been verified.

However, together, the scientists of the empire don't have to worry about anything at all, and Liu Qingquan, who has obtained the seeds of alpha civilization, can give the scientists of the empire the most correct guidance.

There is no problem for the Imperial scientists in terms of specific theories, and after such a simple analysis, it seems that the three major problems of the warp engine, the scientists of the Empire only need to specialize in the first problem, the material problem!

The other two puzzles can be completed with the existing conditions, the energy relies on the powerful nuclear fusion energy technology, the method according to the alpha law groped by tens of millions, the most mature methods and theories, compared to the empire's warp engine technology, as long as it is studied, it is certainly not the most rudimentary warp engine.

The material problem is a key issue, although Liu Qingquan also has the scientific and technological information of the Alpha Person, but now he is less and less unwilling to interfere too much in the development of the empire's science and technology, it is good to have a plug-in, which can greatly improve the speed of development, but always rely on the plug-in, it is also easy to have problems.

It's like a person who plays a game, you habitually rely on the plug-in to play the game, and over time it forms a dependence, and your own talent and ability will slowly be buried in it, once you lose the plug-in, you don't know how to play the game at all.

When it comes to the development of civilization, the same is true for the development of science and technology. (To be continued.) )
