The closest star to Xiao Yu is a red dwarf star, which has a mass of about 50 percent of the Sun, which is the most common and abundant star in the universe.

The smaller the star, the slower its nuclear fusion reaction and the longer it will live. The lifespan of the universe is about 13.7 billion years, and the lifespan of red dwarfs is much more than this number, so there are no dead red dwarfs in the universe.

The Aquila Nebula contains several open star clusters, each of which contains dozens or hundreds of stars. Among these many stars, this red dwarf can only be regarded as a very ordinary and inconspicuous one.

Stars are made up of cosmic dust, so the Aquila Nebula, of course, will be a huge star factory. In the Aquila Nebula, Xiao Yu observed at least dozens of protostars.

Protostars are the embryonic stage of the star, and because gravity is unstable, the interstellar dust cloud will collapse towards the center, and in the process, it will emit infrared light, and the core temperature will increase until the beginning of deuterium fusion. Then, the core will stop contracting.

At this time, the interstellar dust cloud is still raining down on the protostar, its mass will continue to increase, its core will become warmer and denser, and then, the fusion of hydrogen will begin, and it will begin to radiate considerable light and heat, which means that a star is truly formed.

Once a star is formed, it will emit a powerful stream of high-energy charged particles to disperse the interstellar dust that continues to surround it, which will prevent it from gaining mass further.

It was in the midst of such a process that a star was created.

The Aquila Nebula, a huge star factory, has another resounding name, and that is, the Pillar of Creation!

Stars are the most important kind of stars in the universe. It generously radiates its own energy, and its existence creates a good foundation for the emergence of life. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to give such a huge stellar factory the name of the Pillar of Creation.

Xiao Yu saw that one point and six light-years away from him, there was a stellar embryo that was in the protostellar stage. At its poles, powerful jets are emitted, stretching tens of billions of kilometers away. Under its gravitational pull, the dust in interstellar space gathered around it into a dust disk, which quickly revolved around it, constantly converging on it, and in the process, there were strong ultraviolet rays, X-rays, and gamma rays bursting out.

The Aquila Nebula is such a magical place.

In addition to the stars, Xiao Yu also noticed several peculiar locations. In one of the locations, one point four light-years away from Xiao Yu's target star, there was a star with a mass of 0.7 times the mass of the Sun in chaotic motion. It is spinning wildly around an invisible point, and at the same time, it is losing mass at an alarming rate.

The sun is fused with about 500 million tonnes of matter per second, of which 4 million tonnes are converted into energy, which means that the sun loses 4 million tonnes of mass per second. But this star, which is 0.7 times the mass of the Sun, has a staggering rate of 20 million tons per second!

According to the theory of stellar evolution, this is basically impossible, so, combined with its strange orbit, Xiao Yu came to the conclusion that it has a companion star, and this companion star is constantly robbing it of matter.

After coming to this conclusion, Xiao Yu began to worry a little.

A companion star, which is not visible in the visible light band, proves that its nuclear fusion reaction has stopped, and it is small in size, but it has a lot of mass.

Xiao Yu came to the conclusion that there, there was a white dwarf.

The white dwarf, like a ferocious piranha, is rapidly ripping off pieces of flesh from its companion star.

According to this biting efficiency, there is a high probability that this white dwarf will have a nova explosion in the near future.

Of course, this recent is on a cosmic scale, millions of years later, and a second later, it is all recent. However, according to the observation data, Xiao Yu is 95% sure that this white dwarf star will have a new star explosion within a thousand years.

Nova explosions and supernova bursts are different in that nova explosions can be repeated multiple times in a white dwarf. The type Ia supernovae in the supernova explosion also occurs on white dwarfs, but the specific mechanism is different, roughly speaking, among the different types of death star explosions, the nova explosion is the least powerful.

But even the most powerful Nova Explosion is countless times stronger than the collision of Mu Yue, or even the collision of Tianyuan A into Tianyuan IV. Xiao Yu's target star, which is only one point and four light-years away from this time bomb, is likely to be affected in a major event such as a nova explosion.

Xiao Yu thought about it for a long time, but decided to continue to set out according to the original goal. There are two reasons for this, one is that at such a distance, the nova explosion will not necessarily affect him, and the other is that Xiao Yu hopes to get a chance to observe the nova explosion up close, which will greatly enrich Xiao Yu's theory of stellar evolution.

In the pale red universe, Xiao Yu's fleet was moving rapidly.

On Xiao Yu's spaceship shield, small flashes of light continued to erupt, and Xiao Yu knew that it was caused by the interstellar dust cloud hitting the protective shield. Under the shroud of countless tiny flashes, Xiao Yu's fleet was like a robe of stars, which was extremely gorgeous.

The density of matter here is thousands of times higher than that of the rest of the place, and the thick gas cloud causes Xiao Yu's fleet to be constantly slowed down, and at the same time, the impact of gas cloud particles may also cause Xiao Yu's fleet to deviate from its route. Xiao Yu only kept adjusting his course and accelerating, so he barely managed to maintain his speed above 3,000 kilometers per second.

Fortunately, Xiao Yu's fuel is quite sufficient, otherwise, if he continues to use it at this rate, the fuel would have been used up long ago.

Time passed bit by bit, and Xiao Yu was getting closer and closer to the target star. Up to now, Xiao Yu has only ten years of voyage left, about 950 billion kilometers.

This distance is still outside the heliopause of this star, but Xiao Yu has already begun to encounter a small number of meteorite blocks. These meteorite blocks, along the chaotic trajectory, travel through the universe.

On a stellar scale, the entire Aquila Nebula is a chaotic multi-body system, and the operation of the planets inside the multi-body system is chaotic and unpredictable, which also leads to the instability of interstellar matter, and the operation of these meteorites is also unpredictable by Xiao Yu, so it often happens that one second ago, a meteorite was still flying gracefully, and it seemed that Xiao Yu's fleet was not disdainful at all, but the next moment, under the influence of not knowing which star, they suddenly changed their orbits, It slammed into Xiao Yu with a fierce momentum, and a large burst of sparks exploded above the protective shield of Xiao Yu's spaceship.

Xiao Yu was a little helpless about such a thing.

At such a long distance, meteorites began to be encountered, which made Xiao Yu's estimation of the degree of chaos inside the galaxy go up a notch. It is very likely that the star system here is ten or a hundred times more chaotic than the four galaxies of Tianyuan.

"It will take another ten years for me to reach my destination, my sailing speed is really too slow, and I don't know when I will be able to step into the realm of fourth-level civilization and master faster-than-light travel." Xiao Yu thought a little depressed, "According to Luka II, the peak of the third-level civilization can reach fifty percent of the speed of light, and the primary third-level civilization that has been in the third-level civilization for hundreds of thousands of years can also reach five percent of the speed of light. ”

Under Xiao Yu's continuous brainwashing, tens of thousands of Lukka people on the New Home have long been devoted to Xiao Yu's command, even if Xiao Yu lets them die, they will not hesitate to obey.

In the past 20 years, a total of thousands of Lucca children were born, and as soon as these Lucca children had the ability to receive knowledge, Xiao Yu immediately organized a special school to cultivate their sense of loyalty from an early age, and even, the phrase "always loyal to the master" was written in the textbook.

Today is the time for a regular debriefing once a month. Xiao Yu connected to Luca 2 and listened to Luca 2 report to him on the situation on the Xinjia.

After quietly listening to Luka-2's report, Xiao Yu passed on some information about the target star to it, and instructed: "Let your scientists plan the most feasible scientific and technological upgrade plan for me, and I will use it as a reference." ”

Luca II respectfully agreed, "Obey your orders, master. ”

Xiao Yu didn't take this matter to heart, compared to the rest of the huge things, the Luca people are not worth Xiao Yu's too much energy. However, three days later, an urgent communication request from Luca II changed Xiao Yu's opinion.

"Master, master, you...... Can you use ...... More information for me? Yes, it's about this starfield. Luca II said in a hurried voice.

Xiao Yu was a little strange, but he still gave the details of the Aquila Nebula to Lukka II. Three hours later, Luca II sent another urgent request for communication.

Xiao Yu was a little impatient to connect, and he heard Luca No. 2's somewhat bitter voice: "Master, we are in trouble." ”

"Huh?" Xiao Yu expressed his doubts in a syllable.

"The Aquila Nebula, within the Alliance, is called the Crimson Star Domain, and the Crimson Star Domain belongs to the second-level moderate danger area, 300,000 years ago, there was a fourth-level civilization fleet, after passing through this star field, all the creatures of the civilization have undergone terrifying mutations......
