"How so, haven't we only been on Vidak for three months, how have twenty years passed?" Wang Ming's chubby body trembled slightly, and his eyes revealed an incredible brilliance. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

When they first got the news, it felt like an elusive thief had stolen twenty years of their time. Could it be that just like the mythological story depicted, one day in the sky, one year on the earth, I waited for the members of the Hongwen team to go to the "heaven" for some reason?

But how is this possible, myths are myths after all, how can they happen in reality? If you want to say the problem, is it on Vidak?

Wang Ming thought for a while, and immediately focused his doubts on Vidak. You must know that during the whole process, Vidabuss is a little weird!

The other members of the Red Quest Team also recovered from their initial shock, their mental states were very strong, otherwise they would not have engaged in such a dangerous profession as interstellar exploration.

And before engaging in this profession, they have to go through a series of theoretical knowledge training, it can be said that the entire Hongwen team, not to mention all of them are experts, but also half of the insiders, through the physical knowledge instilled in the past, they quickly thought of possible situations in combination with their own situation.

It's all too easy to understand that time passes at different speeds between two different places in the universe, and in fact no other place has the same rate of time flowing.

Time is an artificially defined physical parameter, and we can sense the existence of time by observing the change in the state of motion of things, but it is difficult to say what time is.

In fact, a stationary object itself is slowly aging in the timeline, because the interior of the object is becoming more and more chaotic and decaying.

Reflected on the object, we can see the corruption of apples, the deterioration of fresh meat, even a large iron ball, although its changes cannot be seen from the outside, but on a more microscopic scale, the iron ball is composed of atoms, atoms are also changing, in statistical thermodynamics, it is also becoming more and more chaotic!

The above phenomena are becoming more and more chaotic inside, and there is a special value in physics to reflect it, and this value is "entropy"!

Everything in the world is always moving in the direction of more and more chaos, and to use a figurative metaphor, once a ball of flour is sprinkled, it will spread everywhere, and it is difficult to make it actively retract to its original state without applying external energy.

At the time of the Big Bang, the entropy value was very small, and then the entropy value continued to increase, and the speed of entropy increase is the flow rate of time!

The experience of physics tells us that there are two ways to change the speed of time, or the speed at which an object decays itself, one is velocity, and the other is space warp!

The speed of time felt inside the object under different moving speeds is different, simply put, the faster the movement speed, the slower the time flow rate, the same piece of fresh meat, assuming they are all packed in a container and sent out at a certain speed, the speed of decay of fresh meat in the container with fast movement is slower!

However, Vidabust did not have a too fast movement speed, so Ye Hongwen and others ruled out the influence of speed on time at the first time.

Then there is still space distortion left, which is the most likely scenario!

Where space is distorted, time passes slowly, while where gravity is strong, is often distorted in space, so it can also be assumed that time passes slowly around massive objects. Could it be ...... Is there an incredibly powerful gravitational field around the planet Vidak?

But it's not right, the Red Text team has measured the gravitational force around Vidak before, and there is nothing strange about it.

"Could it be that the gravitational pull around the spacecraft changed after it fell into Vidak? But why can't I feel the change? Ye Hongwen couldn't help but be surprised.

Of course, there is also a possibility, that is, Ye Hongwen and his team passed through the wormhole together, but whether it is the Lorentz wormhole or the Euclid wormhole, it is impossible, the Lorentz wormhole is too small for the spacecraft to enter, and the Euclid wormhole cannot be fixed in one place and not move.

"It's really a headache, I thought it was only delayed for more than three months, but I didn't expect that twenty years have passed all of a sudden!" Ye Hongwen looked at everyone with a wry smile, and blamed him for not finding out the situation when he contacted the Civil Formation Management Bureau at that time, but it was all a routine conversation, and where did the operator in charge of the liaison at that time remember the Hongwen Squad, the formation that disappeared twenty years ago?

The current earth fleet is highly dependent on informatization, and the grassroots staff operate in full accordance with their authority, and people have changed one stubble after another in the past 20 years, until the system queries the database, only to find that this is a team that disappeared 20 years ago.

However, for reasons of confidentiality, no one else was informed of the information. So even the commander of the Third Fleet, the crown, who came to escort the escort, only thought that the other party had been adrift outside for twenty years!

"Looks like we're going to be given a grand reception!" Wang Ming glanced at everyone and said with a wry smile.

"Don't say it, since it's happened, let's think seriously about how to deal with it." Ye Hongwen shook his head, and he was a little melancholy in his heart, but he couldn't show it, "Now let's follow the dispatching instructions and let the spacecraft dock." ”

"Alas, that's right!" Everyone thought that instead of having a headache here, it was better to wait and see what happened and wait for the official arrangements for them. Two possibilities can be seen from the fact that the fleet did not give them special instructions, including gag orders.

First, the fleet official did not find the secrets of the Hongwen team, but this possibility can be ruled out, and the civilian formation management bureau can easily find out their secrets by routinely comparing the logbook!

The second is to show that the fleet official has no intention of concealing this secret at all, so regardless of the spread of the news, it is estimated that when the investigation is over, the official will take the initiative to announce this matter to the public.

For Ye Hongwen and them, it is the most appropriate choice to take one step at a time, and I believe that the answer to what they are puzzled about now can be found from the official. However, one thing is also good, that is, the Hongwen team has dragged the family with them, so even if they have been missing for twenty years, the impact on the family is very limited.

After a short time, the spaceship was docked, and the entire Hongwen team was quiet, they had more or less broken free from the previous news, and quietly watched the starry sky in the distance with tens of thousands of ships around them.

At the same time, a swarm of spaceships flew in the distant starry sky.

These spaceships slowly unfolded in front of everyone from far and near, and through the on-site camera equipment, this image was also simultaneously presented on the TV screens of thousands of households.

I saw that under the guidance of hundreds of pilot ships sent out by the Earth Fleet, the chubby-like habitation ships and slender combat ships slowly stepped into the line of sight, and under the sunlight on the sunny side, these ships emitted a shining brilliance, and the fatigue of the long journey was revealed in front of everyone through the pitted pits on the surface of the hull and the deep burn marks.

This scene was extremely shocking, especially the old residents who had personally experienced the voyage of the Earth Fleet, and the deep memories in their hearts were evoked, and their eyes showed excitement and reminiscence. (To be continued.) )
