“…… Recently, the government has announced a total of nine space exploration programs, and according to the latest data released by the Finance Bureau, spending related to space projects has accounted for 14% of GDP, an increase of 4% from the previous year......"

“…… According to reports, the second 'Joint Space Development and Planning Conference' will be held the day after tomorrow, and the heads of state will once again gather together to jointly look forward to the future of space......"

“……”

"—beep."

The TV was turned off again, but this time the viewer did not complain and consciously obediently returned to the room to study.

The Puzzled Star Scholar sat on the empty sofa and stared at the newspaper on the table in a daze.

At this time, it has been a long time since they were attacked by alien civilizations, and the people did not know that there was a threat of doom that passed them.

However, the Confusing Star Scholar still learned a lot about the nepotism left over from the past.

For example, the beam of striking that contains enough to change the state of the star, such as the "alien superman" who directly stops the blow as an individual......

However, after the crisis was resolved, the Confused Star Scholars did not appear to be very happy, but became more and more worried.

Even though the current government is already discussing alien cooperation, he feels that it is still too slow, this time there is an unknown alien civilization to help them stop the blow, what about the next time?

The current international government is still in the theoretical stage of building a satellite base on the nearest satellite, and it cannot be solved under wave after wave of ridicule.

The reason is very simple, that is, the investment is not proportional to the return, the transportation cost is too high, and the construction of the satellite base is a big project, and the estimated maintenance cost alone can put a heavy burden on each country.

The Confusing Star Scholar rubbed his head with a headache, worrying about how to solve these problems.

Although he has been expelled, he still has the qualities of being a scientist, especially the major events related to extraterrestrials, and he can't care about it.

And at this moment, a melodious sound of music wafted from his son's room, and although it appeared and disappeared, it automatically formed a complete melody in the mind of the Puzzled Star Scholar.

His son plays this song every day, and he never listens to music, but he is already familiar with the melody of this song.

"I'm playing this ...... again"

The Puzzled Star Scholar laughed helplessly, but his thoughts drifted into the distance with the music.

He also knows the name of this music, called "Beyond the Speed of Light", which was put on the Internet by an Internet singer named "Ash".

At first, the music was not well-known, but as the international government paid more and more attention to space exploration, and the popularization of cosmic knowledge became more and more, eventually most people knew what the biggest factor restricting their space exploration was.

It takes them days to get from the ground to the moon, and from the ground to the nearest planet, that time is a hundredfold.

And according to the inference of their scientists, they may be able to accelerate a manned spacecraft to a tenth of the speed of light in a limited time.

But that's not enough, even if it accelerates to the speed of light, it's too slow for space exploration.

So "Beyond the Speed of Light" has become a dream in the hearts of everyone who is dedicated to space, and the song "Beyond the Speed of Light" has also become popular.

This entrusts their hopes for the starry sky, even if they are scholars who are confused by the stars.

Although he firmly believes that this universe is dark, he also sincerely hopes that there is a faster-than-light method that can be popularized to illuminate this dark starry sky.

But this seems to be just a delusion, maybe in 10,000 years, 100,000 years, millions of years, they can only "crawl" in the universe at the speed of light.

A sense of sadness arose, and the bewildered scholar unconsciously hummed the melody of "Beyond the Speed of Light", which was both bitter and hopeful, and contradictory emotions were gathered in this song.

However, as he hummed, he suddenly noticed that some unusual values appeared in one of the instruments he had placed in the living room.

This old-fashioned instrument has been basically eliminated, so he put it in the living room so casually, but he didn't expect that something would go wrong at this time.

He hurried over to check, only to find that the instrument had detected data related to the "state of space-time".

But the instrument was too old, and he wasn't sure what exactly was going on beyond this information, and it was even possible that it was just a false alarm.

But that kind of information alone was enough to make him restless, because it might represent an opportunity for them to "go faster than the speed of light".

It was a model that existed only in their theory and had never been proven, and the data anomalies that are emerging today are very likely to be proven.

So he anxiously paced back and forth in the living room, waiting for his nepotism to work again.

As the time passed, the Confused Star Scholar, who had been waiting for an answer for a long time, couldn't bear it anymore, and directly put on his coat and rushed out of the door to rush towards the landmark building "Astronomical Observatory".

It was at this moment that he received a phone call that made his heartstrings tense.

“…… Feed? ”

"Teacher, there is a major discovery, a wormhole has appeared in our galaxy, not far from us!"

Hearing the news, the bewildered star scholar's heartstrings suddenly relaxed, and then the whole person began to giggle, as if he had been waiting for this day for a long time.

The student also knew that this was just a sign that the other party was too happy, and when he was happy, he hung up the phone in a hurry and returned to his work.

At this time, a huge space-time vortex has appeared on the most eye-catching big screen of the astronomical observatory, like a black hole, but it seems to be able to see flashes of light like thunderstorms, and the fleeting "other side of the world".

This is a picture simulated by the computer according to the curvature of time and space and the movement of light in that place, although it has a certain degree of artistic processing color, but it can also prove that there is something else there.

- A wormhole appeared there, only about 100 million kilometers away from them.

Not only that, but their computers have deduced that this wormhole is extremely stable, and it is basically impossible for it to collapse naturally, and the gravitational effect produced by it has also been regulated to a certain extent, and it will not have any effect on the galaxy unless the celestial body actively touches the wormhole.

The celestial staff on the planet immediately went into action, and a large number of scientists began to analyze the wormhole.

A technology that lends itself to "wormhole navigation" has emerged, and in the process, scientists who have been plagued by critical questions have been able to magically discover insights in their own computers that will open their minds.

This "mysterious man G" has become a major unsolved mystery in the scientific community, and some insiders suspect that this is actually a superboss who does not care about the world, and the intelligence departments of many countries are also secretly looking for this "mysterious man G".

And in addition to them, all the civilizations of the entire "lower three spiral arms" have a wormhole in the home galaxy.

Some of these extremely advanced civilizations, which are only subject to the speed of light, quickly launched wormhole exploration projects, and soon discovered that the other end of the wormhole is actually in this galaxy, more precisely on the other side of the galaxy.

After they tentatively sent a spacecraft to explore, the advance team brought in a shocking news:

On the other side of the wormhole is a very different world, where it is common to exceed the speed of light!

At the same time, through the advance team that "coincidentally" opened in the wormhole of the galaxy in the "Grand Theater", they also discovered a fact that made them angry.

That is, the civilization on the other side of the wormhole, seems to be taking pleasure in the struggles of these "low-level civilizations".
