Chapter 146: Xiaoguang: This galaxy tastes a little strange

In the process of detouring, a certain deceleration interval is also obtained,

And as the spacecraft quickly approached the Ross 128 galaxy,

The red dwarf star is getting brighter,

During this period, Yang Meng also continued to sort out letters from the earth,

In these fourteen years, twenty-eight more letters,

But it's a pity that there is still no mention of extraterrestrial civilizations above.

After Yang Meng was disappointed, he slowly calmed down,

Don't bother with news about extraterrestrial civilizations,

After leaving the Ross 128 system, he will set out on his way back.

As he gets closer to the solar system, whatever problems arise on the part of the Earth will be revealed to him.

Although there is no such thing as an extraterrestrial civilization in communications,

But in the correspondence of the earth in these fourteen years, he still described to him the changes of the earth during this time.

And with some technical upgrade data,

There is also a mention of the flow of immigrants and gray forces.

The process of non-departmental immigration is progressing very quickly,

With the path that pioneer astronauts have explored in the universe,

The shipship of the immigrants only needs to fly along these lanes, and basically does not encounter any dangerous areas such as dark nebulae.

However, due to the limitations of technology,

There are not many passengers carried by immigrants,

The spaceship that can be built by humans today has a maximum carrying capacity of thirty people.

If the safety factor and the load of the life-sustaining system are not considered,

Maybe the number of people that the spaceship can carry can be doubled, but the Earth side can't do such a risky behavior.

"And what is the purpose of the migration from Earth?"

Although the Earth side mentions the situation of emigration to the extraline,

But there was no mention of the specific planet of immigration, which made Yang Meng a little puzzled,

"Is it that you haven't decided, or do you mean you don't need to talk to me about it?"

The matter of foreign immigration made Yang Meng puzzled for a long time,

In his opinion, the matter of foreign immigration was very strange from the beginning.

Humanity has just sent pioneer astronauts to explore the surrounding galaxies.

There is no planet that is very suitable for human life similar to the earth's environment.

Moreover, human space technology is far from reaching the level where large-scale migration can be carried out.

Humanity on Earth,

Leaving Earth in a hurry and heading for other galaxies is not a normal thing to look at.

In addition to the matter of foreign immigrants that made Yang Meng puzzled,

There is also the situation of the gray forces, which also confuses him,

Ever since the gray forces fled Earth and lured some of Earth's pursuers to Proxima Centauri,

In his subsequent letters, the Earth side rarely mentioned the matter of the gray forces to him.

Only in an occasional letter, it is mentioned that:

"The Earth side is still looking for gray forces!"

But apart from verbal mentions, there seems to be no other concrete action, and in the past ten years, it seems that the existence of gray forces has been ignored.

For this situation, although Yang Meng is puzzled,

But I also slowly understood why human beings on the earth ignore the gray forces.

After all, human beings on Earth are not monolithic,

There are still divisions within mankind, and the pursuit of gray forces who have fled outside the solar system is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack.

Being able to catch up with Proxima Centauri may be the greatest effort within humanity,

In the pursuit of the distance,

There will be a lot of opposition within humanity,

As you go deeper into the universe, the resources and money spent will become a big problem.

Where do these things come from and who pays for them? Who's going to help?

All kinds of problems are not easy to reconcile.

"It looks gray

The forces have run away!"

"I don't know, if the human forces have caught it, the small group of gray forces hiding in Proxima Centauri can get some useful clues!"

"It's hard to think about it, if the fleeing gray forces don't tell their accomplices their destination,

Humanity can't get any useful news from the gray forces of Proxima Centauri!"

"That's it! It's useless to dwell on this matter, so let's continue to sort out the next information......

In this way, in the process of organizing information,

His ship flew above the dark nebula ring,

Enter the Ross 128 galaxy from another angle.

In Yang Meng, all the information will be sorted out,

and replied to Earth with a letter from him,

Yang Meng's next task is to explore the galaxy in front of him.

……

At this time, four months have passed since Yang Meng woke up from low temperature hibernation.

On a new day,

That is, the day when Yang Meng just woke up from sleep,

The first thing he did was to glance at Ross 128 in front of him,

Looking through the porthole,

At this time, Ross 128 was already the brightest star in his field of vision.

Its starlight is no longer in the dark,

The luminosity above is a bright bright red,

If there is life in this galaxy, then this star is the source of life here.

It was at this moment that

There is still a little distance from the Ross 128 star flickered slightly,

And this flickering,

also made Yang Meng come back to his senses and look to the other side.

"Strange, why hasn't Xiaoguang woken up yet?"

"Xiao Yin, how far are we from the target planet now?"

"There are still 46 astronomical units!"

"46 astronomical units, it stands to reason that it's very close, but why hasn't Xiaoguang woken up yet?"

Seeing that the light on Xiaoguang's body has become brighter, and it has also appeared in a slightly flickering state,

But there was no sign of awakening,

This made Yang Meng feel strange.

You must know that before at a position of 1,800 astronomical units away from Nanhesan, Xiaoguang could already stay awake.

And here, Xiaoguang is already 46 astronomical units away from the star, but it still can't be awakened.

"It's because of the stellar level, right?"

Yang Meng thought about it secretly and came to some conclusion,

After all, there are rare sub-giants near the three solar systems of Nanhe,

And the physique of Ross 128 is even smaller than that of Rutan,

From the point of view of the form of energy acquisition of small light,

The energy fluctuations in this position are not enough to wake up Xiaoguang.

Thinking of this, Yang Meng's gaze withdrew from Xiaoguang, and continued to look at the Ross 128 galaxy in front of him.

It's just that, looking at the galaxy in front of you,

Because I was thinking about the question of Xiaoguang just now,

He thought of the exploration of another galaxy,

"I had expected that the environment inside the Nanhe Samsung system would be extremely harsh, but I didn't expect it to be so bad.

Sure enough, the probe still lost contact after entering the Nanhe three-star system!"

Yang Meng recalled that when he sorted out the information before, the information sent back by Nanhesan shook his head silently,

There were some problems with Nan Hesan's exploration, but he couldn't do anything about it.

He could only hope that the probe could fly out of the Nanhe three-star system smoothly and send back information.

This kind of entering a harsh environment and losing contact,

But things that can be connected by getting rid of the bad also happen from time to time in human space exploration.

When the probe was released before, Yang Meng was also prepared in this regard, so he could still see some hope,

As for the probe base left in the marshmallow star

earth

Because of the passage of time, the nuclear batteries in the base have been almost consumed,

In order to be able to stay this survival base, he temporarily stopped his exploration of Marshmallow Star.

In general, there was no good news from Nanhesan, which made Yang Meng a little disappointed.

"Hopefully I'll get some good news in the Ross 128 system next!"

Floating in front of the porthole, he looked at the red dwarf star in front of him for a while, and then began a series of preparations.

Although he is still 46 AU away from his target planet,

But for the space technology of this era,

This is not too far away, so he has already begun to prepare for the landing.

The Ross 128 galaxy, in the pioneer exploration plan, is not the target galaxy of Yang Meng.

But before he set off, he communicated with his friend, and the target planet of the galaxy they went to in their respective exploration plans,

"If all goes well, she should land on a planet in this system!"

Thinking of this, he once again confirmed the data of the planet Ross 128,

Like the Rutan Galaxy, Proxima Centauri,

Humans call rocky planets found in habitable zones planets.

And Ross 128, like Rutan, is also a planet in the habitable zone.

Compared to the planet Rutan,

In the human world, the attention of the planet Ross 128 is a little higher,

The planet was discovered by humans on the 15th of the month.

After continuous exploration, astronomers found that

This planet is closer to Earth than Rutan in terms of mass and volume.

And the stars that this planet has are also better than those that the planet Rutan has.

Compared with the stellar activity of Rutan, which is too old to observe,

Ross 128 star,

It is considered a relatively young existence in the category of red dwarfs, only 9.6 billion years old.

Because of the youth

Although the mass of the Ross 128 star is only a little more than half of that of the Rutan star,

But the temperature and activity of the star are much higher than that of Rutan,

A star is not a good sign either overactive or overly lifeless.

In the Ross 128 galaxy, the activity level is exactly in the normal active range.

"According to the standard by which man measures the existence of life,

This galaxy is more likely to have life than Rutan,

I don't know if she found something and was trapped somewhere?"

With this in mind,

Yang Meng continued to look at the detection data,

At forty-six astronomical units, it is already possible to make some simple explorations of the Ross 128 galaxy,

For example, abnormal electromagnetic waves,

Electromagnetic waves in the universe decay with distance.

Eventually, it merges with cosmic background radiation, but this phenomenon only occurs at great distances.

And at 46 astronomical units, if a certain level of civilization was really born on that planet,

Yang Meng can also detect some now.

It's a pity that he asked Xiao Yin to turn on the sensitivity of the detection device to the maximum, and he didn't find anything.

And today, as usual, he asked Xiao Yin to turn on various detection devices,

Probing the inner workings of this galaxy, in addition to detecting civilization, he is also looking for traces left by the pioneer astronauts.

But the detection results are still blank,

"No news from her?"

"Isn't there civilization either?"

Yang Meng sighed and continued to prepare for landing,

Another day passed,

As is customary, Yang Meng sent a precursor probe,

Finding the way ahead,

This detector,

will skim through his target galaxy and send back some simple detections.

And after the busy detection and launch work,

Yang Meng prepared for the landing work again, and completed some daily maintenance work, and the day ended like this.

But when Yang Meng was about to sleep, he noticed that Xiaoguang's state was getting better to the naked eye.

Seeing this situation, Yang Meng secretly muttered:

"It seems that Hikaru will wake up soon, and I don't know what Hikaru said first thing when he woke up?"

……

Yang Meng entered the sleeping pod

And so his day of self-consciousness ended,

Seven hours later,

The fixed biological clock left by years of training has allowed him to wake up from his sleep,

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a point of light floating above him, flickering at a certain frequency.

Seeing this point of light, Yang Meng sat up and said loudly:

"Xiaoguang, you're awake!"

Hearing Yang Meng's voice, Xiaoguang flickered at a certain frequency, and then responded:

"Something doesn't taste right about this galaxy!"

"Taste!"

Xiaoguang's speech made Yang Meng a little confused,

Thinking he hadn't woken up, he asked again:

"Xiaoguang, what are you talking about?"

"There's something strange about this galaxy!"

After confirming that what Xiao Guang said was indeed the taste, Yang Meng communicated with Xiao Yin in his body:

"Xiao Yin, is there no problem with your translation? How could Xiaoguang make such a strange statement!"

Hearing Yang Meng's inquiry, Xiao Yin immediately responded:

"According to the semantics, such a translation is better for you to understand!"

"Is that so?"

"Taste!"

After listening to Xiao Yin's explanation, Yang Meng frowned and thought for a while,

Soon understood the meaning of Xiaoguang's words,

The way in which small light is harvested is related to the star.

Stars cause string movements of particles in string theory

And through this tidal movement, Xiaoguang can get energy from it, thinking of this, Yang Meng asked out loud:

"You're saying there's something strange about the energy you get from this galaxy?"

"That's right!" The little light flickered in response,

At this time, Yang Meng had already left the sleeping cabin and came outside.

"This should be the third galaxy you've experienced, if it's a special ......."

Before Yang Meng's words were finished, he was interrupted by Xiaoguang:

"You mean I've experienced few galaxies, so I think I'm thinking of this galaxy as a special being!

If so, you have misunderstood what I mean,

My civilization has existed for 1.5 billion years, and although I can't leave my own galaxy,

But over a long period of time, my galaxy occasionally encounters some other galaxies,

The means of detection that we have will also detect the tidal movements of some other galaxies.

Compared to the galaxies we've encountered, this galaxy tastes a little strange!"

Hearing Xiaoguang's explanation, Yang Meng glanced at the light spot in front of him, he didn't know if it was an illusion, he felt that Xiaoguang seemed to have a different personality this time,

But thinking of the problem that Xiaoguang is talking about, Yang Meng did not worry about Xiaoguang's character.

Instead, he was thinking about what Xiaoguang just said:

"So do you know what's so special about it?"

Hearing Yang Meng's inquiry, Xiaoguang flickered a few times and responded:

「…… I can only say that I have never seen such a star-induced tidal movement before."

Seeing that I can't get useful information from Xiaoguang here,

He retrieved the data for the galaxy again and looked at it.
