Chapter 1: The Ruins of the Alien Battleship Group!
Since the asteroid belt space jump, Hope has made a total of 11 space jumps.
Each space transition lasted for a three-day observation period, on the one hand, to observe whether there are various special astral materials around, and on the other hand, to observe the surrounding constellation astrology diagram, and compare it with the existing constellation astrology map of human beings to confirm the current area of human beings.
But it's really in vain, the universe...... It's too big!
The universe is there, it doesn't do anything, but that size alone is the degree that makes all life desperate.
Planets, galaxies, star fields, galaxies, sea of stars...... The size of the universe, this is a kind of extreme that is already so big that it is beyond imagination! No matter how to compare the Ganges and the Ganges, in fact, it is just a metaphor for the infinite with the finite, which is meaningless at all.
And this unimaginably large extreme, in the eleven spatial jumps, slightly exposed to the human race, that insignificant corner...... That's enough to be desperate.
In three days of eleven spatial transitions...... "...... No, no, no! ”
Several scientists were sorting out the starry sky map observed by this space jump, and one of the scientists suddenly slammed his fist on the metal table, and then said loudly: "No, still no, any of the starry sky stars that we humans are familiar with have not been discovered, what is this place?" Is it still within the galaxy? Or is it still within the galaxy that can be observed? ”
Another older scientist next to him was still checking the data and images, he had no intention of persuading, but he still spoke: "This is not necessarily, first of all, we have no idea about the operation mechanism of the space transition, we can't even imagine whether this space transition follows the laws of physics, and the wormhole, curvature flight, and faster-than-light flight we imagine are completely different, how to move with such a small amount of energy How huge mass, and it is such a distant teleportation, That's an incredible thing in itself. ”
Speaking of this, the scientist looked directly at the angry scientist and said: "Because of this, what we are doing at present is even more urgent, collecting the astrological map of the place where each jump arrives, this is a kind of accumulation, we human beings are at least two hundred to five hundred years away from the most basic navigation of the universe, do you want to unlock all the knowledge of the universe in our generation?" ”
"Young people, be patient, science is not the ability of new human beings, it is not something that can come by saying it, it is a good thing to have inspiration and talent, but we must also go on step by step, we are not afraid of failure, we are afraid of failure, we are afraid that there is no failure, that is the end of real science...... How good is it now? There are so many things that we don't know, what kind of physical laws does this spatial transition follow? Is it completely random? Or is there any way to make its transition point fixed? The principle of existence of alien plants, and how does it decompose plants down to the atomic level? The principle of existence of energy crystals, why can it exist contrary to the laws of physics? ”
"So, young people, relax your heart, we have gained much more than we have lost, if our generation can't do it, then ten generations, a hundred generations, a thousand generations, our human wisdom will not lose to any cosmic life, our difference is just accumulation......"
The old scientist suddenly laughed and said, "And now, aren't we in the process of accumulation?" ”
At this moment, Yao Yuan is still dealing with various things.
Since the asteroid belt jump, about thirty-two days have passed, and in these thirty-two days, Yao Yuan has been dealing with various remaining problems of the asteroid belt.
The first problem naturally comes from the number of deaths...... According to the current statistics, a total of 623 people died in the asteroid belt, most of them died in the blast on the third layer of the underground temporary settlement, some died from rock collapses during the earthquake, and some died of serious injuries after the rescue failed, in short, according to the later statistics, a total of 623 people died...... Jaywil is not one of them.
So many people died together, this is no less than a catastrophe on the desert planet, as the Hope political axe naturally has the responsibility to deal with the aftermath for these people, and a considerable part of them are male surnames, male surnames who work on the third floor of the underground temporary residence are the main labor force of many families, and this death, the life of his family is likely to be embarrassed, which is also a headache for Yao.
All in all, there were many more things to deal with the aftermath than he imagined, and just the issue of paying out to the various family members had already made him very nervous.
Yao Yuan signed a document on the exchange proposal for family compensation, and then he stood up and twisted his body, his body made a chaotic sound of bone joints, and after a while, he asked Barbie, who was sorting out the documents and files on a small table next to him? Avis, his beautiful secretary.
"Are the observations about this jump coming out? I'm going to make a space jump at twelve o'clock tomorrow morning, so I'll send me a copy as soon as the results come out...... In addition, make me a cup of tea, I want Tuo tea, make it stronger, and I may have to stay up late at night. ”
Barbie lifted the glasses she was wearing and said, "The observations haven't been sent yet, according to the usual practice, they will usually be sent before the early hours of this morning, that is, twenty-four hours before the next jump, do you need me to urge me?" Other than that...... Tuocha tea leaves have not been unsealed, do you need me to go to the warehouse to get another bag of Tuocha out? ”
Yao Yuan was stunned for a moment, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Forget it, just wait for them to send the observations, there are still three or four hours until the early hours of the morning, don't panic for a while...... Forget about the tea, there are not many luxury goods in stock, and it will take more than a month for the external cabin to be manufactured, so you don't need to move it, so make me a cup of strong coffee, you still have some there, right? ”
Barbie smiled lightly, stood up and said, "Okay, a cup of espresso...... Captain, please rest early, the aftermath is a protracted war, the compensation can't be too high, otherwise it will create a group of privileged mixed classes, and it can't be too low, otherwise it will seem too mean, captain, you have to fight a protracted war. ”
"yes, a long battle."
Yao Yuan sighed, and watched Barbie leave the captain's room, he sat down in the chair, while continuing to look at the rest of the documents, and at the same time holding a pen to either sign or reply, and the time continued in this state, until a strong aroma of coffee came, he came back to his senses, and beside him, Barbie smiled and handed over a cup of steaming freshly ground coffee...... In the early hours of the same day, Yao Yuan got the observation report of this jump, which was the same as the previous ten reports, that is, there were no stars or galaxies that could be approached within the observation range around the surroundings, and the nearest star system was at least a few light years away, but this was already a few slightly better of the eleven reports.
The seventh jump almost scared everyone out of a cold sweat...... Because in that transition, there was not a single star in the surrounding hundreds of light-years, and judging from the data obtained from the observations, the nearest star was at least light-years away in 10,000 years, and the position of this jump was probably in the interval between the river system, that is, the interval between the Milky Way and the fairy system that we humans observed, which was a cold and silent void, an unimaginably large distance!
But after that, fortunately, basically in the surrounding area of a few light-years to hundreds of light-years, you can always find the existence of star systems, at least more than 10,000 times better than the separation space between river systems.
After these eleven transitions, some scientists have put forward the hypothesis that the spatial transitions are not purely disordered random transitions, but also follow some special laws, and one of these laws is likely to be a gravitational law.
That is, the exit of the spatial transition, which should be the transition towards a place with gravity.
Otherwise, according to the size of the universe and the arrangement of stars, 99% of the exits of the space jump should be between the gaps between the river systems, that is, the seventh transition, rather than the current situation, where the exits after the jump are generally within the river system, which is basically impossible in terms of the probability of the size of the universe.
So, it's likely that space transitions follow a special condition, that is, they will set their own exits to the extent that they are not close to the gravitational environment, of course, for humans, a few light-years to hundreds of light-years is an unimaginable distance, but for alien beings with space jump technology, this distance may be about the same as their car to another city.
But in any case, this is a possible law summed up by experience, the law of spatial transition, and in the case that scientific and technological means cannot study spatial transition, this law may be a good start.
Yao Yuan always remembered that when he was in the asteroid belt, when those scientists studied the use of alien plants, what they said was that human beings were not poor in wisdom, but in accumulation, which was like an adult competing with a baby for common sense or something, which must not be compared, and even babies couldn't even speak.
But who knows the future? Maybe when the baby grows up, he will be a genius and become a scientist like Albert Einstein.
Therefore, Yao Yuan did not panic, he only needed to be able to obtain energy and materials in hundreds of space jumps, or in the past few decades, when human technology accumulated enough to be able to make large spar reactors, then he could make more space jumps.
As long as human beings are alive and continuing, and as long as human civilization is not extinct, then there is always infinite hope for the future, and who can see the future?
So, in the early morning of the third day after the eleventh spatial jump, after confirming that there was still nothing to be gained from this jump, the twelfth spatial jump took place, and then ...... At about three o'clock in the morning of the next day, when Yao Yuan had slept for less than an hour, suddenly there was a knock on his door, and at the same time, the contact device placed at the head of his bed rang violently...... He got a message from a few soldiers outside the door...... Hope monitors the detection chamber after dozens of confirmations, and is confirmed using the Super Space Telescope and precise photographic technology...... About two months away from Hope, there is a large area of alien fleet wreckage covered with tens of thousands of kilometers!
