In the discussion and quarrel of all people, time passes day by day. The security department did not find any abnormalities in the surveillance, much less alien life coming out from inside and triggering a nuclear bomb wash for humans ...
All the circumstances sent a sigh of relief to all the cautious faction.
Two weeks later, the human race finally couldn't hold back, there seemed little point in waiting any longer, and the first detection operation officially began!
On that day, many people gathered in the captain's room, staring nervously at the monitoring screen.
An unmanned vehicle was on its way to the alien saucer, containing a dozen or so modified spider robots.
They were originally the army's killing weapons, a basketball-sized, eight metal legs, mobile and sensitive, but at this time, their mouth barrels and abdominal ammunition have been removed, replaced by larger lithium batteries, signal receivers, high-definition cameras and other detection devices. After some such modifications, responsible for this detection activity is very suitable.
Scientists have high hopes that the dozen or so spider robots will complete the initial exploration of the flying saucer and rule out something dangerous.
"... Such robots are no match for humans, they are too small and can't solve anything sudden when they encounter something!"
Professor Ding Yidong, who was sitting on the side, said dissatisfiedly, although this robot was not made by him, he still criticized nonchalantly.
Several scientists around him were also whispering, discussing the robot's shortcomings and the success rate of this expedition ...
Half an hour later, the car finally arrived in front of the flying saucer.
Oliver looked at all the scientists as well as soldiers and said in a deep voice: "Well, you all know it, the preliminary exploration work is done by these spider robots. The whole exploration task is divided into the following parts."
"First, obtain some pieces of metal alloy of different sizes and carry them back to the Noah for technical analysis."
The robots had searched the outer environment of the flying saucer and did not find metal fragments. According to the analysis of experts in materials science, these metal materials may be like bulletproof glass, still stick together after shattering, so not many fragments burst out ... Therefore, people intend to look inside the flying saucer to find whether there is this alloy.
Scientists heard Oliver's words, the look began to get excited, as long as they find some metal fragments, it is likely to bring new points of inspiration to materials science!
Human material science is still weak, the benefits of new materials for humans are obvious, whether it is a spaceship, various weapons, or spacesuits, all need the support of new materials.
"Second, confirm whether the defense mechanism inside the flying saucer is effective. Whether it's kinetic weapons, laser weapons, Gauss cannons, etc., draw out any attacks it may have as much as possible ..."
"Third, collect first-hand information from the ship and search for whether alien life still exists ..."
Oliver thought about it, found nothing more to add, and finally gave the order, "Action begins!"
A spider robot climbed out of the car and moved quickly in the direction of the alien flying saucer. This kind of exploration work is more complex, intelligent programs can not be competent, so it is still remotely controlled by some engineers, people can get the first view of the robot at the base of the Noah
This may be the first time for humans to formally contact alien civilization, these engineers responsible for the control of the heart is generally a little nervous. But their hands are still steady, and the robots, under remote control, find a narrow ragged hole and squeeze in hard.
One, two, three ... total of twelve spider robots, each with its own duties.
Inside was a silvery-white metal corridor, littered with pockmarked warped out metal that looked crumblingly awesome and covered in a lot of dust. Similar to what the material scientists speculated, much of the metal was broken but still stuck together, and small fragments were barely visible.
Because the dust in the spacecraft was stirred up by the spider robots, it flew all over the sky.
"The impact of the flying saucer when it crashed was too great to cause the current ragged appearance." A scientist explained, "But it's not bad, at least a rough outline can still be seen. If our plane fell from a high altitude, after a few million years, it is guaranteed that there will not even be any crumbs left ..."
"The hardness of these alloys is very high!" A mechanical engineer manipulated the spider robot, with metal legs scraped the ground a few times, a "creaking" sound, but did not leave any scratches.
"Is this going to work?" Wade asked from the side, "This will trigger the defense mechanism of the flying saucer?"
Oliver shook his head and took a sip of water from his cup, "We couldn't risk the people in the beginning of the quest, so we assigned these spider robots."
"The key problem is that we simply do not know the technological level of this alien flying saucer, perhaps only a few hundred years beyond us, perhaps tens of thousands of years beyond us. Who knows if there are any defense systems left inside, they may have failed along with the saucer's crash, but some of them may also still be in effect ..."
"Whether it's a laser or a Gauss cannon, once it hits a person, it immediately hangs, a risk we can't take. So it has to be droids to line up first."
"Let's say, now this kind of test, a bit like fishing ... we do not know whether there are fish in the fish pond, there is no deep sea giant shark, can only use all the bait all try again."
Looking at the many people thoughtful look, Oliver said with his finger on the screen: "So many spider robots, do not look similar, but in fact, different kinds. Each robot has a different device inside."
"Some can produce smoke and emit several hundred degrees of heat, some can spit fire, some with a certain amount of radiation, and there is a strong current that can produce ... If there are aliens inside, they will not guess that we will suddenly wreak havoc!"
"I ask you, if in the living area of the Noah, suddenly appeared a flame, you say what will happen?"
Wade paused and said directly, "Our security feedback mechanism would immediately activate, alarms would be pulled, automatic fire extinguishing devices would be turned on ... and water would be sprayed out!"
"Yes, the same thing." Oliver took another sip of water and swallowed. "We have such feedback mechanisms on our ships, and alien flying saucers would theoretically have them as well. Unless their technology is completely impervious to accidental disasters like fire or leakage, but that should be highly unlikely ..."
Wade nodded, and along with many of the council members behind him, nodded in agreement.
"More importantly, this feedback mechanism is difficult to be turned off." Oliver continued, "Like our ship, the fire alarm is on all year round. Its power consumption is so small that there is no need to turn it off."
"If you really want to turn off the fire alarm, instead, it is very troublesome and requires the approval of a large number of authorities such as the security department and the power department. It's impossible for just any ordinary person to turn the alarm off."
Wade froze for a moment, it is indeed like this, their fire alarm, even he has no way to turn off.
"According to this reasoning, there should be a similar safety feedback mechanism inside the flying saucer, and, more difficult to turn off ... In other words, as long as there is no such safety feedback mechanism inside, the probability of a weapons system is lower, because weapons systems tend to be more complex and require more energy! "
