Chapter 150: Cooper's Fate

After Professor Brand's individual conversation, Louis officially joined the Lazarus Project, and what he said to Professor Brand that day was not casual, he would definitely provide Professor Brand with all the data he needed.

Because he realized a problem: what is the scope of the so-called team in his mission?

The Mark of the Brave doesn't give any clear hints, and if the Mark of the Brave refers to the entire Lazarus Project operations team, then the scope is very large, and almost the entire space agency is included.

This means that in order to accomplish this task, Louis must ensure that humanity on Earth can be saved, not abandoned as an outcast.

Even Dr. Mann, who was very unpopular in the original plot, went to save him, and he had to prevent this guy from trapping the exploration team.

Louis can also think of the so-called team as a few people who finally board the Eternity, but he thinks that if he can't do it, it's better to work in a more 'troublesome' direction, if he can't do it, forget it, but because he wants to be 'lazy', the result is that the mission fails and he is trapped in this world, which is too embarrassing.

After joining the Lazarus Project, Louis' first job was to receive training.

Becoming an astronaut is not an easy task, there are many things to learn, and as a pilot, Louis focuses on the piloting of spaceships.

In particular, the Prowler and the Lander, which will become the main aircraft in the Lazarus Project, although the two aircraft are piloted in the same way, but the difference in aerodynamic layout will cause differences in flight, and Louie must understand these situations as soon as possible, but this is not a difficult thing for Louis today.

He was a quick learner, completing the simulator course in a very short time, and that would have taken him even less time to focus on learning to fly.

"It's amazing learning ability, and your talent for flying is amazing. ”

Emilia, Doyle, and Romilly occasionally come to see him practice with the simulator, and if nothing happens, they form a new exploration team to see what's going on across the wormhole.

Although Louis can remember a lot of the plot, not all the details can be remembered clearly.

It wasn't until he officially joined the Lazarus Project that he learned that after Dr. Mann and the others set off and walked through the wormhole, there was no news coming back, and the Earth side had no idea what was going on on the other side of the wormhole, so he had to send the Eternity to determine the situation and find a suitable new home.

For Professor Brand Sr., the Eternity is actually the last hope of mankind, and the 5,000 fertilized eggs will become the continuation of the earthlings, and the Eternity is the future of mankind...... It wasn't until Louis appeared that he saw the real hope of the earthlings being saved.

"I'm also a veteran, not a rookie who started from scratch, and it's normal to learn quickly. After Louis got off the simulator, he chatted casually with Romilly: "And it's just the simulator...... It's very different from a real flying machine. ”

"You're going to get acquainted with the real Prowler. ”

Louis will not only have to fly the real Prowler and Lander, but will also be trained as an astronaut with Romilly, Doyle and Amilia.

Physical training, astrophysics, and other courses were enough to break down even a person with an average IQ, and Louie would feel the urge to vomit blood from time to time, so he could only memorize a lot of knowledge by rote first, and take the time to let the other three people explain the general meaning for him.

He also needs to understand the structure, layout, and principles of the entire Eternity, so that if something goes wrong with the Eternity, he can find, troubleshoot, and repair the ship as soon as possible.

With such a troublesome preparation, it is no wonder that Dr. Mann and the others lost contact for many years before the space agency sent Emilia and the others into space again, not only because of the lack of good pilots, but also because the preparation was indeed troublesome and time-consuming.

In such a busy school schedule, Louis couldn't even feel the passage of time, and in a blink of an eye, he had already joined the Lazarus Project for a year.

During this time, in addition to learning various astronautical knowledge and improving his flying proficiency, Louie will also think about what he should do next.

The point is to kick the actor Cooper out and replace him?

Or pull Cooper into the team and let him continue to complete his 'ring', Cooper will pass the data in the black hole to his daughter Murphy, and Murphy will complete the final deduction of the equation and send the super-large space station into space.

Louie's original idea was to kick Cooper out of the game, become the pilot of the Eternity, and take the three scientists through the wormhole.

Then he found another opportunity to drive the Prowler into the black hole, obtain enough data information, and then transmit it back to Professor Brand on Earth through the five-dimensional space...... That's when he realized a problem.

He is different from Cooper, Cooper is really the person chosen by "them", so after Cooper pilots the spaceship into the black hole, he will be sent into the five-dimensional space by "them", so that Cooper can send messages to Murphy in the "past".

He is just a casual identity, he has nothing to do with the 'future humans' of this world, maybe those high-dimensional humans will use the eyes of a fool to appreciate his stupid behavior of driving a spaceship into a black hole like a play.

Come to think of it, even if you are a Jedi, the behavior of rushing into the black hole is no different from suicide, so the safest way is to pull Cooper into the team and find a reason for Cooper to rush into the black hole, and Cooper will pass the data in the black hole to Earth to help Professor Brand complete the equation.

He continues to move towards the new planet and establish new colonies, and only when the colonies are successfully established can he be considered to have completed the task, which also means that he must participate in the construction of the colony, and it also means that he cannot enter the black hole.

The problem is not how to get out of the black hole, or where it is 'lost' after entering it, but the closer you get to the black hole, the greater the impact on time: in layman's terms, the space near a black hole has a different flow rate of time than other spaces.

For example, the planet that Laura Miller is responsible for exploring, which is the first planet to land in the original plot, is too close to the black hole and is greatly affected by the gravitational pull of the black hole, and staying on that planet for an hour is equivalent to seven years on the earth.

Cooper and the others accidentally wasted some more time on this planet, parked the ship outside the black hole's sphere, and waited for Cooper and their Romili to live alone on the Eternity for twenty-three years.

In the last part of the plot, when Cooper uses the gravity of the black hole to help Emilia drive the Eternity to the planet where Edmonds is located, he only operates in the periphery of the black hole for a short time, which is equivalent to more than fifty years outside.

This is also the reason why Cooper successfully met his daughter Murphy again, but Murphy is already an old man at the end of his life - at this time, the human beings on Earth have also successfully sent a super-large space station into space and are moving towards a new home.

If Louie enters the black hole, even if 'they' are willing to send Louie into the five-dimensional space, Louie will be able to relay the information to the earth smoothly, but when he comes out of the black hole, I don't know how long it will be, maybe Emilia and they have successfully established a new colony.

This means that Louis missed the establishment of the colony, will his mission still be judged to be completed?

The more he thought about it, the more Louis realized the pitfalls of this mission, but fortunately, the 'main plot' had not yet begun, and he had enough time to think of a solution that was as perfect as possible.

And he doesn't need to think about it himself, he also has a staff officer with a high enough IQ.

"So, your original plan was to send someone into a black hole to collect data?" Professor Brand took off his glasses and rubbed his forehead, Louie's words sounding a little unbelievable.

"That's how we saved all mankind?" Professor Brand couldn't figure out how the person who entered the black hole transmitted the information back to Earth, and whether that person was alive or not? He didn't even ask, in the eyes of the old professor, the unlucky guy who entered the black hole must have died a miserable death.

Louie didn't speak, just pointed his finger upwards, this action had a special meaning here, and Brand immediately understood that it was 'they' who helped.

"In that case, why are you talking to me specifically about this?" "Since they will succeed in relaying information back to Earth in the future, is it still necessary for Louis to talk to himself about this matter this time?"

"Maybe 'they' didn't think the process was perfect, so they asked me to help adjust it. Louis shrugged his shoulders and said what he thought: "I know where to receive these messages, and if you receive them in advance, you can also get the space station into space earlier." ”

"Oh?" Professor Brand is interested, as a scientist, if he has the opportunity to access the data in the black hole and complete that equation, then he will have no regrets in his life: "Where can I receive this data?"

"Cooper's home!" Louis said in an easy way, telling Professor Brand Sr. in advance that it was for Brand to be able to go to Cooper's house to get this information, "and in order for 'this' to happen, we must have Cooper join in the operation." ”

This allows Cooper to enter the black hole and send the message back to Professor Brand, who is waiting at Cooper's house, to help him complete the equation earlier.

In addition, if Cooper no longer stays on the periphery of the black hole and rushes directly into the black hole, he may be sent into the five-dimensional space earlier, so he may not be too long to 'waste' time in the black hole, and reunite with his not-so-old daughter.
