Chapter 137: Obstacles to Return

The gray forces of the Coyinbo belt, which was born out of the asteroid belt, can be said to be a notorious organization,

What they do often breaks through the bottom line of human morality,

Yang Mengye, who is far away from the solar system, often hears about the evil deeds of the gray forces, and deeply dislikes this organization.

"Could it be that the ground command center is worried about the gray forces?"

At the first glance of seeing this news, Yang Meng's mind popped up with such an idea,

Human beings in the solar system, under the constraints of moral laws, live in an orderly manner on the earth.

But once humanity leaves the earth,

What would happen without the restraint of morality and law?

In the past, when humans did not have strict control over the asteroid belt near Mars, humans who lost their self-restraint have already shown once,

In short, humans living in the asteroid belt can no longer be called human.

It is perfectly possible to think of it as another species.

"In other words, as long as I return to Earth, there is a high chance of encountering these gray forces!"

Thinking of this, Yang Meng frowned slightly,

He thought to himself what would happen if he returned to Earth and encountered the gray forces.

Will the other party look up to him because he is contributing to the exploration of the universe by mankind?

He didn't know......

Looking at the wanted notices issued by the human forces, looking at the few gray forces that fled the solar system,

Yang Meng understood that once he left the solar system, it was almost impossible to capture it back.

"But has human civil space technology reached this level today?"

Yang Meng thought for a while,

It has been hundreds of years since the invention of controlled nuclear fusion technology.

The technology of artificial organic matter is also very mature.

As long as the controllable nuclear fusion device can provide a stable supply of energy, then human beings can eat and drink without worry, and safety can be guaranteed on long journeys.

"But how do these gray forces ensure the normal supply of non-recyclable substances?"

Thinking of this, Yang Meng was a little puzzled: "Could it be that human beings have a new life-sustaining circulatory system technology?"

Human recycling technology has been perfected, and the daily consumption of non-recyclable substances is very small.

But as a pioneer astronaut, Yang Meng knows very well,

During a long interstellar journey, it often takes a long time to travel to other galaxies,

The amount of supplies that need to be consumed in a day multiplied by 365 days and then multiplied by the number of years is a lot of data.

If you calculate the materials needed for the return trip,

The amount of supplies needed to land on the planet will be an astronomical amount.

But the spacecraft has a limited ability to carry materials, so in the face of such a shortage of resources,

In addition to deepening the degree of the ship's resource utilization,

It is also necessary for astronauts to be able to collect and recover resources on alien planets.

"The resources of Ke Yinbo's belt are already insufficient, and they don't know where the resources and technology of the gray forces come from, so they have plans to go to other star systems!"

"And judging from the information from Earth, there are still a lot of people on board the gray forces' spaceship, which is a bit strange!"

And in order to ensure the survivability of the pioneer astronauts, the life-sustaining circulation system on the spacecraft is extremely compact.

For safety, aerospace engineers even placed three life-sustaining systems on his spacecraft,

Two systems are used in shifts, one system is used for backup,

In this case,

He alone occupies three survival positions, which is one of the reasons why he is the only astronaut on the spacecraft.

If you add another astronaut,

The resource consumption of the spaceship, after multiplying it by more than a hundred years, will increase exponentially.

"How did those gray forces with so many people solve this problem?"

Yang Meng was a little puzzled,

Where are they going?"

Although the letter from the Earth side has not mentioned what galaxy those gray forces will go to after leaving the solar system,

But according to the content of the information, Yang Meng can guess that the place ahead of these gray forces may not be far away.

And there are only a few nearby stars around the solar system.

There aren't many objects to choose from either.

In his judgment, the galaxy that those gray forces are most likely to go to is the closest star system to the solar system.

That is, the proxima centauri galaxy known to mankind,

But alas, this galaxy is a three-star system, and the degree of human development of this galaxy is not high.

As a triple star system, it's very dangerous.

Although Yang Meng knew that the Samsung system was a little dangerous,

Humanity's decision-makers deliberately avoided this galaxy when formulating out-of-system exploration missions.

But in the face of such a conservative exploration plan, he still didn't understand the selection and training in the solar system.

As astronauts, they should face difficulties head-on.

Not only is he artificial, but other pioneer astronauts also have this idea.

After all, this galaxy is the closest to Earth, and it is also the easiest to get the achievement of being the first to enter a galaxy outside the solar system

For this kind of achievement that can be written into the history books, as a human astronaut, it is inevitable to have some ideas.

But now that he has personally experienced the binary star system,

It is also understandable for the conservative plans of human decision-makers.

It is the conservative thinking of the decision-makers that allows them to safely travel to their target system.

"Maybe the gray forces that have left the solar system don't have these considerations!"

"They can do things that maximize their profits, and even the crew of the ship can sacrifice at any time."

"However, since we think that the fleeing gray forces may go to Proxima Centauri,

The human decision-makers can also anticipate this situation,

Going to Proxima Centauri may not be a good choice!"

……

Yang Meng carefully watched the gray forces leaving the solar system back and forth a few times.

Now he has found a factor that interferes with his return to Earth.

That's the threat of the gray forces,

With the methods of the gray forces, it is entirely possible to intercept him on his way back,

As for why the gray forces knew the path he was going to take, it was not difficult.

The Earth side needs to send a message to him 12 light-years away,

This makes communication required, extremely high energy.

When such a communication cluster signal travels through the universe, it will leave extremely obvious traces.

With the technology mastered by the gray forces,

It is completely possible to determine the current location of the pioneer astronaut along the network cable.

"But is it really the gray forces that let the ground command center take care of it?"

He was somewhat skeptical about this reason:

"If it is the gray forces that cause uncertainty on the way back,

Then the earth side can be clearly said,

But what is the ground concerned about? Why do you give such a hint?"

Thinking of this, Yang Meng felt a little upset that the ground command center had been letting him guess like a riddler.
