Chapter 216: From 0.4 light-years to 0.1 light-years
The spaceship continues to fly forward,
In the face of the solar system getting closer and closer,
Yang Meng didn't know what kind of world he was facing.
Even though those indescribable thoughts have been pressed to the bottom of his heart,
But facing the planet in front of me that should be my hometown,
He was still a little confused.
……
Facing the small light that had woken up, Yang Meng took it to the cold and dark laboratory,
Looking at Xiaoguang with a very excited appearance,
He shook his head gently, with such an attitude towards Xiaoguang,
Yang Meng can also understand,
Ever since he met Xiaoguang, he has discovered one thing,
Xiaoguang cares about human beings very much, and communicates with him about the past of human beings from Rutan Star.
Go to Ross 128b and observe the clones day and night.
and then to provide a practical method for the condensation of Cai Zhaoxin's consciousness energy body
As you can see from all these things,
This point of light cares about human beings very much.
Even more concerned about humanity than he is a human being,
He didn't feel much of this kind of concern before.
As a human being, if he encounters an alien, he will also have all kinds of curious emotions.
"But now ......"
Looking at that violently flickering point of light,
Yang Meng suppressed the strange thoughts in his heart and asked Xiaoguang:
"Is there a way to get her mind to normalize?"
Hearing such a question, Xiaoguang flickered violently,
Yang Meng seemed to feel that Xiaoguang was looking at him with some kind of vision,
"There are not enough materials and equipment here!"
"Aren't the 3D printers and the resources on the ship up to your requirements?"
The little light flickered,
and then transmitted a binary number to Yang Meng,
Through this data, Xiao Yin analyzed a data blueprint,
"Consciousness Logic Refinement Convergence Technology!"
"It's going to be such a huge piece of equipment, it looks like a large particle collider!"
"Yes!"
"It is not easy for a conscious being to gain the ability to perceive the outside world and interact normally with the material world!"
"It is necessary to establish a particle string structure similar to the neural network of living organisms in the conscious body.
Let the consciousness get normal thinking,
In addition to the establishment of neural networks, it is also necessary to condense the energy state of the consciousness body to minimize the interference of the outside world on the energy body! ”

"If it's still on our planet, where there are ready-made devices,
Even if it's you, it's easy to refine your consciousness and form a consciousness energy body! ”
Hearing this, Yang Meng's face changed slightly:
"You're saying that there are ready-made devices on Rutan,
But why didn't you tell me when I left Ross 128b? ”
"Will you return to my planet again for the sake of her consciousness?" Xiaoguang flickered and asked rhetorically.
Faced with such a question, Yang Meng fell silent.
Is he willing to abandon the mission and spend another fifty years returning to Planet Rutan?
Yang Meng didn't know what choice he would make if Xiaoguang told him this possibility at that time.
He still couldn't be sure.
"Of course, at that time I wasn't sure about the state of consciousness of your kindred,
If I had known that his consciousness could be restored to this level, I would have given you such advice! ”
Yang Meng glanced at the flickering little light, and did not continue to dwell on this issue.
"Is there any other way to do this?"
"Yes, yes, but there are certain risks!"
"Risk?"
As a pioneer astronaut, he is very sensitive to the word risk.
"Let's talk about it"
"One way is to discard the more divergent logical structure and retain the more convergent logic to restore her consciousness!"
"But this will lead to a large amount of memory loss, and it will cause their consciousness, thinking, and emotions to change!"
"The second way is ......"
Xiaoguang said several ways in a row,
But none of these methods can perfectly solve the current situation of Cai Zhaoxin's consciousness energy body.
In the face of his former teammates,
Yang Meng didn't want to cause irreparable mistakes in Cai Zhaoxin's consciousness body because of some hidden dangers.
Even if this consciousness energy body is just a copy of Cai Zhaoxin's own consciousness.
"That's it! Let's leave it at that! ”
Looking at the consciousness energy body that reacted slower than the sloth, Yang Meng sighed slightly,
And Xiaoguang saw that Yang Meng did not use some dangerous methods for Cai Zhaoxin's sake,
It flickered a few times, and didn't say anything more.
……
Time continues to pass,
Three months later,
The spacecraft entered a position 0.4 light-years from Earth,
At this time, the spaceship finally began the process of slowing down.
Yang Meng shouldn't have slowed down so early,
0.4 light-years away from the Earth is more than 25,000 astronomical units,
And an astronomical unit is the average distance from the sun to the earth,
At such a distance, it would take the light nearly 146 days to cover this distance.
But too fast will leave obvious traces in the universe,
Especially after getting close to the star system,
The ionic propulsion used by the spacecraft collides with the stream of high-energy charged particles ejected from the star.
A comet-like tail is formed.
In order to avoid attracting the attention of observers in the solar system,
Yang Meng needs to reduce his speed, and the trouble caused by reducing his speed is that the time to reach the inner solar system increases.
At 20% of the speed of light, it only takes 2 years to reach the inner solar system,
But now the time is much more,
Thankfully, the time to reach the inner solar system has only doubled,
According to Xiao Yin's calculations,
Just slow down the speed of the spaceship to less than 11%,
Before entering the Coyinbo Belt of the solar system, outside the area where the solar wind affects a large area,
Tail flames triggered by ships and high-energy particle streams will be greatly reduced.
"Attention! Ahead is about to pass, the shock wave area of the sun's interstellar space! ”
Hearing Xiao Yin's voice, Yang Meng looked up at the scene outside the porthole,
Unfortunately, he didn't see anything, and the spacecraft flew over an inexplicable area and continued to travel towards the interior of the solar system.
After 9 months,
The distance between the spacecraft and Earth is 0.3 light-years
Another 11 months passed
The spacecraft is 0.2 light-years away from Earth,
After 33 months,
The distance between the spacecraft and Earth is 0.1 light-years.
At this time, in the porthole of the spaceship,
The sun has become extremely bright,
Even when the sun's rays shine through the portholes, they can leave a shadow of a lake of light.
Yang Meng is very close to the solar system.
And closer to the solar system is the probe launched by Yang Meng before,
After these three years,
After continuous deceleration, the probe has docked into the range of the Keyinbo belt.
and received a large number of broadcast signals, Yang Meng also read these broadcasts,
From the content of these broadcasts, Yang Meng only saw one thing,
Because of interstellar development, human society is unprecedentedly prosperous and full of hope.
The entire solar system was very peaceful, and there was no darkness as he imagined......
