Chapter 981: Encounter
After more than two months of continuous exploration, in this dangerous environment, more than 400,000 unmanned spacecraft were finally used up as much as 350,000, but fortunately, the operation of the neutron star and so on were almost detected, and everyone was finally ready to return.
The significance of exploring neutron stars is to understand the rules of the universe and imitate and learn! At that time, he had insight into the rules of star operation, which had an immeasurable impact on human exploration of nuclear energy. In fact, it can be said that until now, human beings are still living on stars, and without stars, energy alone is enough to set the current technological society back a thousand years!
As an empire of thousands of years, of course, it will not do useless work, just for the sake of curiosity, it will run up to 1,500 light years, then take a few photos, and finally roll away......
Of course, as for establishing a habitat outside the nebula, it is also for the purpose of better exploring the nebula. As the graveyard of old stars and the cradle of new stars, nebulae are places that humans must explore no matter what.
"Withdrawn!" Zhong Xinghui roared, his tone was full of excitement and pride, he was happy to personally command a large expedition team to explore the birth of a neutron star, and of course he was also happy to get first-hand information, which proved the value of the individual, and also made his own contribution to the development of society, the nation and the country.
Sometimes, for these scholars, their satisfaction is also easy, that is, to be able to make their voice heard in their own field - is this also called easy?
"Left!" Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, even the boldest, who had been in this environment for almost a year. In addition, it takes more than three years to go back and forth, and I am already physically and mentally exhausted; In particular, this is not just an ordinary exploration of the universe, the nebula is already dangerous enough, and now it is also in front of the runway neutron star, observing the birth of neutron star...... To be honest, if it weren't for Huaxia taking the lead this time, no one would necessarily come!
Of course, if it weren't for Huaxia Exploration, everyone wouldn't have such an idea, and of course there would not be such an opportunity.
On the way back. The soldiers relaxed a lot. I began to talk and laugh, and I began to be in the mood to observe the internal scenery of the neutron star, and finally I didn't have to be nervous.
Speaking of which, the inside of this neutron star is actually very beautiful. Specifically, the space between the tide of stellar energy and the neutron star after the explosion. It's beautiful. The rays themselves are diverse. In addition, the nebula formed by various particles here makes the surroundings look beautiful. It's like the atmosphere, illuminated by trillions of lasers of different intensities and colors. It can be in the dark background of the universe. It's rare to find such a bright space.
If the cosmic space is like a dark night without stars and moons, then the world of nebulae is the evening when the afterglow is about to dissipate - but there is still some light; And the space where this neutron star was born is like the most brilliant sunset moment.
In the distance, a dark red curtain wall of heaven and earth hangs in space, and you can't see the edge; That's an energy blaster. It's just that the current energy shockwave has almost stopped spreading, and itself is slowly dissipating. Perhaps, to be able to give birth to this neutron star, this star-level "egg" has also come to the end of its life.
In the time of the great destruction, there is an alternative vitality; The destruction of the stars is often also the beginning of another life!
At this time, Zhong Xinghui was discussing what he had gained this time with his friends, assistants, etc.
"I think, that's what I think!" Zhong Xinghui stood up and danced on the virtual light curtain, sketching his thoughts, "First of all, it is the extraction of energy. Before, we got our energy, mainly from nuclear energy. But as you can see, the nuclear energy produced by human beings cannot be compared with the stars. And a stellar collar technology can give us access to an infinite amount of energy.
But as academics, we need to be forward-looking in ways that are unimaginable to ordinary people. If, I mean, one day the stars don't have enough energy, or if our energy channels are cut off and we don't have the logistics to support enough energy, then how do we get energy?
What's more, when the real battle comes, the fixed and immovable stellar collar will be the key to the enemy's first attack! So, how do we get enough energy without external energy support? โ
Tang Wenying nodded, "Although it sounds a little appalling and a little intimidating, thinking about the results at worst is indeed one of the directions of scientific research."
If this is the case you described, then we will have to sit back and die. The stored energy will eventually run out! โ
"Yes!" Zhong Xinghui nodded, "This is also one of our goals in exploring the Nebula World this time. And now I have an idea, that is, we want to imitate the energy generation and operation of neutron stars, just as we imitated stars in the past. Moreover, I already have such an idea.
As we all know, space and matter itself have an interaction, and its surface is gravity.
So, can we directly exert enough gravitational force on space to distort space, and then form a great pressure on a certain substance? Let this matter collapse inwards on its own, like a neutron star. Then, in the process of collapse, ordinary materials and substances will gradually shrink, and then their electrons, protons, neutrons, and even energy, radiation, etc., will all be squeezed out, just like oil extraction!
In this way, as long as we have such technology, we no longer have to be afraid of running out of energy! At that time, even if it is domestic garbage, pouring into such a space, can produce enough energy; There's even a by-product, and that's degenerate materials! โ
This...... Everyone was terrified by the crazy idea...... However, not to mention, if there was such an idea in the past, people would definitely scoff at it, and there was no possibility of realizing it at all; But now it's different, and the boom in human technology in small spaces makes this idea possible.
In addition, there is another objective reason, that is, as mentioned earlier, the stellar collar, although powerful, is immovable, and it is also very fragile! In the event of a war, the enemy is bound to destroy the stellar collar as soon as possible!
It takes several years to build a stellar collar, and it even consumes two Earth-sized planets to smelt materials. All this work, it seems simple, but in practice, it is difficult, not to mention anything else, just the right engineering team, it is not a year or two to build, which requires decades of training and running-in, a large number of infrastructure construction equipment is a huge investment! And destroying miรจ is very simple, a blue energy cannon is enough to completely scrap the project that has been hard to build for several years.
Just like the ground war of that year, the first time after the war started, it was a power generation project that attacked both sides! Then, a portable, unlimited energy production method is very necessary!
This neutron star, in particular, can even produce energy while generating powerful offensive power...... This really makes the scientists excited! Therefore, in such a situation, everyone started a lively discussion.
As time passed, everyone was eager to return home, and the spacecraft was accelerating more and more, and it was about to reach the conditions for warp speed.
However, at this time, the exploration spacecraft that had circled the other side of the neutron star in the distance actually sent back a message that it had detected another civilization's spacecraft!
What the?! Exploring a neutron star once, but encountering another civilization? Everyone carefully analyzed the images sent back, yes, this is a newly designed spaceship, and it is a spaceship with a very different style! Is it another civilization's fault!
This...... For a while, everyone felt a little incredible. But then, tension begins, and in space, civilizations and civilizations are intertwined, almost always with war as the opening line! This was the case in China and the Burning Sun Empire back then; And then the same goes for the Pearl Star Field and the Abyss People! Although there are only two examples, this is also an example of not; And on the other hand, there is no example that can prove that the first meeting of a strange civilization is peaceful!
"Professor Zhong, you and all scientists and scholars, please retreat immediately! Instantly!
For the rest, all the personnel are in action!
Lu Yu, you are responsible for sending all the scientists and others away. Remember, your task is critical, and these scientists and scholars have already obtained first-hand information and even have basic ideas. They are the greatest wealth right now. I don't care what method you use, even if it's suicide, I'm going to send these baby bumps back! Got it! โ
"Yes!"
"Good!" Mu Dekun nodded with a stern expression, "Wan Yunfei, prepare for battle, you choose a team first." Remember to leave me at least 10,000 for those soldiers who prefer to fight in battle formations, as well as unmanned spacecraft! โ
"Roger!"
For a moment, the tension began to envelop this joint expedition. All the experts and scholars, etc., were assembled at the first time, and then escorted by a third of the army, and left immediately.
And the rest of the army, whether it is from China or other countries, has no intention of intrigue at this moment, but is fully preparing for war.
It wasn't until this time that everyone was in the mood to look at the spaceship on the other side. It's clear that this is some fleet that has just crossed the energy tide after the star explosion; And the location where this fleet appeared happened to be the location of an unmanned spacecraft. So, both sides discovered each other's save.
This fleet has a total of 12 ships, the largest is about 15 kilometers, and the smallest is only about 3 kilometers; But there is something strange about their shapes, like ...... It's like an iceberg!
Yes, their styling, plus colors, etc., at first glance, turned out to be icebergs! (To be continued......)
PS: Everyone, have a great weekend
In addition, I want to say, if you have a ticket, let me have a good time, haha
