Big Project

After discussing these, all physicists and astronomers have accepted a new task: physicists will continue to verify the feasibility of this scheme, and astronomers will try to find neutron stars that may collide, or have possible collisions. A neutron star swallowed by a black hole.

On the scale of the Milky Way, this kind of astronomical phenomenon is not uncommon, and it will happen once or twice in tens of thousands of years. But it is best to see and touch the kind. If the distance is too far, it will take millions of years for human beings to fly there, so there is not much meaning.

Just like the neutron star collision discovered in 2017, it is 150 million light-years away from humans! With such a long distance, no matter how hard you try, no matter how determined your will is, it is impossible to get by.

On the other hand, how to effectively protect the spacecraft and how to conduct observations near the neutron star has become a long-standing problem, which must be considered first.

The "Bright Galaxy" cannot withstand the huge gamma rays produced when the neutron star hits. As long as the distance is a little closer, the aftermath of the impact is enough for a human to eat a pot. It is even more impossible for this spaceship to approach the black hole. Just kidding, even neutron stars cannot withstand the tearing of the black hole, let alone human spaceships.

However, if the observation is carried out from a distance, the distance is not enough, the data is not enough, and all the efforts will be in vain. Since the meeting has been going on for a long time, these technical problems will not be solved for a while, so the captain simply declared the meeting over.

"Ladies and gentlemen, regarding curvature technology, it is indeed an extremely difficult technology. It will take at least thousands of years. We can't wait for a while. Each laboratory will first discuss the feasibility of various tasks..."

After the meeting ended, a group of people hurried out of the room again, and the sound of discussion was as lively as a vegetable market. Although it has been discussed for a long, long time, people are still talking about it.

"It is impossible to have any material that can withstand such a strong magnetic field! The risk of the spacecraft approaching a neutron star is too great. Maybe an electromagnetic pulse can paralyze the spacecraft!"

"Yeah, what should I do? And what about the humans on the spaceship? Observe the neutron star at close range? An act of courting death."

Although some experts' mouths were full of worry, their actions and expressions were extremely excited, and they were even going crazy with excitement!

Zhang Yuan saw an old gray-haired professor with a fanatical expression on his face, and he was yelling at his surrounding colleagues: "If it doesn't work, build a planetary fortress! As long as the planet is large enough, it will not be able to defend against electromagnetic pulses." has a problem!"

"Mr. Simonson, you really dare to think. Do we have this kind of productivity? Do humans also hide on planetary fortresses?"

"This... I haven't considered it yet."

"...If this plan is really discussed, all our purchase targets in the interstellar trading market will also be replaced. We have to purchase nano-robot technology and more production lines. We don't know if our 2,000-odd amoeba points are enough ."

"Hey, this is begging...Mr. Zhang Yuan!" The first moment the old professor saw Zhang Yuan, it was like seeing his first love. shake hands.

It made him get goosebumps all over his body, and he almost jumped out of the wheelchair.

Simonsen said loudly: "Mr. Zhang Yuan, this begging... news is too important! It's life-saving news. You know, in the past, even if we had this idea in our minds, it was impossible to actually pay for it." Those actions will definitely be called idiots by others..."

"This project is too big, even our new human civilization can't afford it."

Yes, this news is too important!

The old professor was right, because of the enormous difficulty of implementing this scientific research project, even though many third-level civilizations had some vague guesses, they would not actually implement it.

Because it needs to consume the power of the entire civilization for thousands or even tens of thousands of years!

"Hahaha! It seems to be a very simple thing now. After being reminded, it is really much easier." The old man named Simonson said so much, grabbing Zhang Yuan's hand and shaking it vigorously.

They did not doubt the authenticity of the information brought back by Zhang Yuan. From a theoretical point of view, the energy level produced by the collision and fragmentation of neutron stars is indeed greater than that of the accelerator around the solar system.

Moreover, it is very difficult to observe the data, which vaguely proves something... Otherwise, the fourth-level civilization in the universe would have already filled the streets like cabbage!

How many civilizations are willing to spend such huge manpower and material resources to gamble on an unknown tomorrow?

What if you get nothing?

All will be in vain!

This is also a hidden threshold for promotion to level 4 civilization.

First of all, you have to think of this idea, and second, you have to devote enough manpower, material resources, and enough time to it...

It is completely impossible for a civilization with insufficient mobility.

Zhang Yuan quickly bit the bullet and said: "Keep it secret, keep it secret, everyone must keep it secret! This news must not be leaked out, we are still in the trading market!"

...

After bidding farewell to all the fanatical experts, Zhang Yuan finally had time to be alone for a while. After explaining all the news he had learned, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. No one could understand how panicked he was these days, and even suffered internal injuries!

He returned to his room and wiped the sweat off his face. All relatives and friends have gone to work, and the room is quiet.

He drove the electric wheelchair and came to a computer.

Each new human civilization has its own division of labor, and Zhang Yuan will not care too much about how to choose next. There are very few things that one person can do. Only by trusting and trusting other people can we do more.

Of course, there is one more thing, which is his job, and that is the complex world he perceives...

"Ultra-dimensional perception laboratory..."

Zhang Yuan turned on the computer while thinking.

This brand new laboratory is under preparation, and the relevant experts are all migrated from the "Magnetic Perception Laboratory", and an invitation letter has been sent to him.

Even the "Magnetic Perception Laboratory" is a relatively young laboratory, and it was established after the exchange of papers between the two parties because some intelligent species in the interstellar trading market, such as the Toth civilization, have the ability to perceive magnetic fields. Since people want to study enhanced perception, it's a good place to start.

He opened the most basic content of brain topology and began to study seriously. His knowledge in this area is not enough, and he needs to make up for it for a few years before he can keep up with the current cutting-edge knowledge.

"...Hey, human beings have virtual world technology and want to improve their intelligence. I don't know how simple it is. Some experiments on intelligent life are not as inhumane as before, and it is difficult to experiment..." Zhang Yuan recalled inexplicably Some things about "human ethics and morality".

Human ethics and morality are also indispensable from a certain perspective.

In the 20th century, the "lobotomy" invented by a medical professor was once all the rage. The doctor named Moniz discovered that after breaking the patient's skull with a screwdriver, stirring it in the head to destroy the white matter of the brain lobe, it can actually treat mental illness and make some aggressive mental patients quiet and obedient .

People were stunned at this moment, so they followed suit one after another and used it to treat mental illness. In order to make money, the capitalists at the beginning bragged about this operation as miraculous. So many parents sent disobedient children into the operating room, and stirred their heads with tools, and the children became obedient immediately.

In fact, it is just a child with dementia and mental retardation.

Even this guy actually won the Nobel Prize, what a joke, a great tragedy!

Of course, it is absolutely impossible for such an inexplicable situation to appear now.

Several hours passed, and suddenly there was a knock on the door of "Dong Dong Dong".

"Please come in!" Zhang Yuan raised his head and said.

Several young men and women walked in. These boys and girls knew Zhang Yuan, they were psychology experts in the Unreal Lab, and they would come to conduct special psychological investigations every few months.

After such a long time, everyone is the so-called "same age" and has become friends long ago.

"Mr. Zhang Yuan, do you have time to accept the investigation now?" The leader is a boy named Jin Kangyi. This guy is even his college classmate, and sometimes they play games together on weekends.

Zhang Yuan turned off the computer casually, and said, "Ask whatever you want. Anyway, I'm still on sick leave. I don't have a serious job. I'm just reading books here when I'm bored."

A group of experts sat down in their seats solemnly. Since it is work, it must be taken seriously.
