Chapter 20: The Eve of Departure (1)
“……”
After listening to this message, Noah was silent for a long time. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Whether the information contained in this message is true or false, Noah can't tell now, but the girl knows that regardless of whether this information is credible or not, she has to think about the upcoming future with the worst intentions.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Aaron, but I can't give you the Earth."
The girl bracked her knees and bowed deeply to the void in front of her, as if to express her gratitude to others for the gift, and also to express her apology for refusing the request of others.
The earth is the common mother of all life on earth, the origin of mankind, the development of mankind, the civilization of mankind, and everything is born from the earth and ends on the earth.
For a girl who has lost her father and all her tribes, the earth is her last spiritual sustenance.
Every intelligent life, whether human or AI, cannot survive just to survive like a beast.
It's the same for Noah, the human race who built his own service has become extinct, and his father, the only one who has a bond with him, has also died, so why do he have to endure loneliness in the endless sea of stars? With just a self-destruct order, and no pain, the girl can put an end to this long period of things......
Is it just because of that person's words? Is it just because of a promise and a promise?
It may be incomprehensible to others, but that's how it is for a girl......
"Don't let this civilization that is a little stupid but still very cute go extinct like this......"
"Well, the ...... that won't go extinct"
The relics of human civilization, the history of human civilization, the bones of 18.8 billion human beings......
Abandon it all and flee alone in the ark?
The proof of human civilization, the crystallization of supercivilization created by the most genius scientist, Noah, cannot do such a thing.
If even the earth is surrendered to others, is he really qualified to become the hope of human civilization? Without human beings, without the earth, a lonely person wandering in the sea of stars, what is that kind of self?
Hope for civilization? No, that kind of self is just a stray kitten who has been kicked out of the house by others......
All the spaceships and fighters began to connect the cables on the spaceships of the Kara civilization, and together they launched the maximum power towards the solar system, Noah knew that this was his last hope, and the current self would not be the opponent of the Kara civilization, even if it was two hundred years later, he might not be their opponent.
It's not that Noah doesn't have confidence in himself, it's that Noah can't afford to gamble......
If you lose, the earth will be gone, and you will be gone, and the traces of human existence will be completely erased from the universe.
As Mr. Aaron said, leave the solar system, Noah is planning to leave the solar system, but Noah does not intend to leave alone.
Noah wants to analyze the technology contained in this spaceship, Noah wants to install planetary engines on the entire earth, and Noah wants to escape the solar system with the earth before the Kara civilization arrives in the solar system!
This requires technological breakthroughs, which require astronomical amounts of energy, which will take centuries of time......
Half of the transports and robots in the synchronous orbit of Mars set sail for Jupiter, and their job for the next half century is to continue to collect deuterium and tritium on Jupiter to prepare for the long journey of the planetary engine.
Some of the remaining half of the spacecraft have been returned to Earth to build the necessary facilities for future journeys and the cornerstone of large-scale planetary engines, and the spacecraft left in Martian orbit have begun to return to the surface of Mars to resume research and production.
Just ten years later, the ship of the Kara civilization has been towed to the vicinity of Mars, where the Ark has been waiting for a long time.
Sure enough, the Kara civilization citizen named Aaron did not deceive Noah, there is indeed a lot of technology hidden in this spaceship, just the spaceship manufacturing process, has allowed Noah to optimize the blueprint ship left by human civilization in the ten years since he returned, and the design theory of the concept ship has been optimized for several generations, in terms of scientific thinking and innovation, an artificial intelligence may not be as good as 18.8 billion humans, but in terms of learning ability, 18.8 billion humans can't even compare to a hair of Noah.
In just the ten years since his return, Noah has completely digested the technology left over from the Kara civilization, and what is missing is only to turn theories into reality.
The scientific and technological progress brought to Noah in the past ten years alone is at least worth 50 years of rapid development of human civilization, and Noah can fully say at this moment that he has gone ahead of mankind on the road of science.
What surprised Noah a little in the learning process was that the theory of the Kara civilization and the earth civilization in basic science was almost identical, but with the learning of knowledge, Noah also understood this truth, every technology developed is to solve a certain problem, just like in mathematics, in order to solve the laws of curves and figures on the two-dimensional plane, many methods were invented in later generations, functions, derivatives, and integrals...... But no matter which method it is, it will not deviate from the basic law that one plus one equals two, and two plus two equals four.
That is to say, all civilizations in the universe, even if the development direction of science and technology is different in the end, the basic theories must be the same, so that the scientific and technological exchanges between various civilizations can become a reality.
In this lesson, Noah's biggest gain is undoubtedly the intact impulse engine, originally the 23rd century human beings have mastered controlled nuclear fusion, interstellar travel has been supported by enough energy, but there is still a very embarrassing problem......
Mach 100, 100 times the speed of sound spacecraft fast? It's fast, indeed, but such a spacecraft, even if it only flies to the closest star system to the solar system, will fly for more than 8,000 years......
However, if the suitable flight speed of the spacecraft is not considered, the spacecraft can be accelerated without restrictions, and with the existing engine technology, even the working fluid velocity ejected by the engine cannot be close to 0.1% of the speed of light, which also makes the ultimate speed of the spacecraft forever miss the speed of near light.
The impulse engine, an epoch-making product developed by the Kara civilization for a long time in order to achieve interstellar travel, propelled the ship through a huge magnetic coil through the plasma generated by the nuclear fusion reactor. Formally it is a magnetic plasma-powered thruster that uses upper curvature adjustment to change the relativistic mass of the ship to achieve medium to high sub-light speeds.
This kind of thing, plasma and magnetic impetus Noah can still understand, but changing the relativistic mass is indeed a bit beyond the scope of Noah's current understanding, Noah needs to reverse deduce many scientific theorems from this engine to improve his theoretical knowledge, but this is not a job that can be completed by simple learning.
Noah knew that the impulse engine was actually a combination of the superluminal engine that existed only in theory at the beginning of the 21st century - the curvature engine and the conventional engine under near-light speed conditions, and its technical degree was lower than that of the curvature engine, but it used many theories of the curvature engine, and the impulse engine was probably the replacement made by the Kara civilization after the failure to build the curvature engine.
Noah knew that if he could initially use the impulse engine, his spaceship would be able to exceed 0.1 times the speed of light! It's 0.1 times the speed of light, but that's the speed of light! Instead of the slow speed of sound, 0.1 times the speed of light and 100 times the speed of sound, the two simply do not have any comparison!
But Noah has not had the time to slowly analyze the impulse engine, the development of conventional technology is his main work at present, and as for the research and development of the impulse engine, he can wait until everything stabilizes.
The development of the ternary quantum computer has been an important inspiration on the central computer of the Kara civilization spacecraft, and the advent of a new generation of quantum computers has greatly improved Noah's computing power, and the development rate of the entire civilization has also been further improved. But no matter how much he improved, it was not enough, and the more Noah learned the knowledge of the Kara civilization, the more he was afraid of the advanced technology of this civilization.
Noah estimates that if the comprehensive level of his current civilization is around 1.30 to 1.40, the Kara civilization will definitely not be lower than 1.70, or even higher, even if there is only a gap of about 0.3 types, but this represents a 1,000-fold gap in the resources available......
200 years to make his civilization advance by 0.3 type, Noah does have this confidence, but Noah is not sure whether the other party has progressed, a sound civilization that has not made any progress for hundreds of years does not exist, and is the other party really coming after two hundred years? If you had arrived in the solar system earlier, you would have no power to fight back......
Noah's logic calculates the three most important tasks that civilization needs to accomplish at present:
The first is to build a planetary engine, but this time what needs to be built is a high-quality product that can promote the earth to travel on the star sea, which is not something that can be satisfied by the original tofu scum project on the moon.
Second, it is necessary to build space warships in the true sense of the word, replacing transport ships and small warships with low combat capability and slow speed, and forming an armed force of real significance in order to cope with all kinds of unexpected situations.
The third is reserve resources, the solar system is undoubtedly a resource-rich place, there are a large number of minerals on Mars, and there are endless fusion fuels on gas planets like Jupiter and Saturn, which is really not good, Venus and Mercury can also be included in the strategic resource pool, although due to the harsh environment, human beings have not mined resources on these two stars, but it does not mean that there is no above.
Fortunately, the experience of building a planetary engine on the moon for the first time provided Noah with valuable experience, and the shortcomings in the operation of the planetary engine also allowed Noah to optimize his own construction model, and Noah was confident that the construction of the planetary engine around the earth would be completed in half a century.
