Chapter 135 An Extinct Technological Civilization (5000 words please subscribe!)

With the news, Zhang Ran has never been so excited!

He even had a feeling of tears filling his eyes, as if a kind of bitter tears were about to come out of his eyes. For a while, he opened his mouth several times, but he couldn't speak.

At this moment, he thought of Mother Earth. Since the sun disappeared, human beings have been hiding in the heat of Mother Earth for ten years.

Mother Earth's geothermal heat, like milk, feeds all human beings...

It wasn't until classmate Ling in the office couldn't help crying that he gradually recovered from the feeling of ecstasy.

This news is the best news he has heard in recent years!

In such a state of excitement, he even snatched the jelly from Zero's hand and kissed it viciously.

It's just a pity that Zhang Ran was not loved by Comrade "Jelly", and soon, the high-speed vibration like a vibrator ruthlessly shook his hands away.

"What's the matter with a kiss?" Zhang Ran scolded very unhappily.

Jelly seemed to be frightened, and stayed there motionless, pretending to be dead.

All in all, a planet is right in front of us, whether it is a mountain of swords and seas of fire, or some kind of extraterrestrial life, touching the 10,000 hydrogen bombs stored on the Dongfang Panshi, there is a sense of urge to try.

Zhou Chengfeng, Guo Weiqiang, and a large group of engineers and scientists all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Develop this planet, no matter whether this small world can be inhabited or not, we must find a way to develop this planet!"

"If there is no disaster, then we... will not leave!"

...

...

What follows is a lengthy animal experiment. Humans have to confirm whether this three-dimensional world can live in people.

If you can't live in people, it will be very troublesome...

In fact, many preliminary experiments have caused scientists to worry: the death rate of microorganisms is faster than that of the normal world.

But even if you can't live in people, it's nothing.

As long as human beings keep digging and transporting them back to the subspace, as long as they have enough productivity and time, it is not impossible to even create a new planet in the subspace!

In addition, the first unmanned exploration spacecraft has been launched at the first time.

The first batch of satellites is in this deep space exploration spacecraft.

Naturally, there was no need to conceal such a big news, and the folks quickly became a sea of ​​joy.

The development of this year, everyone can see that the society of Kunlun Mountain has indeed made rapid progress, the economy has developed rapidly, computers, mobile phones and the like can be produced, and everyone can buy all kinds of clothes. The quality of life has obviously improved. improvement.

But as long as they are truly insightful people, they all know that the problem of resource scarcity still exists, especially the most important elements such as rare earths and lithium have been consumed by more than half. Therefore, it is normal for electronic products such as mobile phones to be expensive.

There is no need for special attention from the government. People have long spontaneously conserved resources, and there is actually very little food waste.

This kind of saving will not bring about a qualitative change in nature, but the spirit of thrift is still worth advocating.

Therefore, as soon as the planet was discovered, many workers began to discuss on the Internet, as long as the resource problem is fully resolved, how much human beings will improve and so on...

In the Kunlun Mountain Forum, a doctor popularized the current situation of resource distress: "We haven't even fully grasped the dividends of nuclear fusion. Theoretically, the emergence of nuclear fusion can greatly improve our productivity, and even take the It is possible to join communism!"

"But we are still far from being truly extremely rich. We need higher technology and more resources."

"Without resources, we can't produce too many machines. Advanced productivity needs machines, and scientific research needs machines even more."

"There is also energy storage equipment, that is, batteries. Batteries are so important that they are used in almost all walks of life... and the most important element of batteries is lithium. High specific energy + low cost + high safety, one and a half Other batteries during the meeting are difficult to replace."

"Don't get me wrong. Graphene batteries are not completely carbon elements. They also need a lot of lithium elements, because the principle is to use lithium ions to quickly and massively shuttle between the graphene surface and the electrodes..."

This piece of popular science, the number of likes is as high as one million!

"That's how it is. It would be great if we could get this planet... There should be all kinds of elements on it. It will be our second home."

"I really miss the days when I lived on Earth."

The "digging instinct" deep in the genes of many miners is eager to try. In the past three years, there were no minerals that could be dug. At most, there was only one meteorite that could be excavated, and the mining of meteorites did not require too many people, and the mining was almost done, so these miners changed jobs, and changed jobs. .

As a result, a planet was suddenly discovered, and these old brothers couldn't wait to gather together. There were as many as 100,000 people who applied to mine the planet!

...

The enthusiasm of the people for exploration is extremely high, and the action efficiency of relevant departments is also very fast.

At two o'clock that afternoon, the government convened a relevant meeting on time.

Everyone is in a wonderful mood, the alien "Jelly" has become the first hero, and the trainer "Zero Classmate" has attracted everyone's attention like never before.

Zero doesn't like socializing, very much, she prefers to hide behind His Highness, being a soulless bodyguard. In order to take into account her mood, Zhang Ran could only let her sit on the right side.

An astronomer took the lead to answer the doubts in people's minds: "Everyone, let's first answer some basic concepts. This three-dimensional fragment is most likely a special space structure left after the collapse of some earth in our universe. It is not the so-called parallel world."

"The reason for the formation of three-dimensional fragments remains to be studied... The current view is that after the universe is torn apart, there will be a small part of the cosmic membrane that has not undergone vacuum decay and thus remains."

"Some of these remaining cosmic membranes will curl up by themselves to generate a small universe."

"Everyone is familiar with the small universe, and I won't explain it separately. We have 16 small universes that can be used, and 3 of them can be inhabited. Our Eden refuge is built inside the small universe. On the Eastern Rock, there is a More than a thousand small universes with different rules make up our curvature engine."

"But there is another kind of cosmic brane that does not curl itself, which will produce a three-dimensional fragment. According to our current theoretical model, the probability of generating such a three-dimensional fragment is about 3%... Well, it is not particularly small."

Listening to the expert's explanation, Zhang Ran suddenly got the investigation report from the front line. After quickly browsing the report, he suddenly paused and fell into deep thought.

"Old Zhou, look at this..."

Zhou Chengfeng, who was sitting on the left, also stopped breathing.

The astronomer in front of the podium continued: "...the three-dimensional debris is open to the outside world, not closed like the small universe, and any matter can easily enter or leave. Of course, it can't be like the small universe. Carried by the ground. There is no way for three-dimensional debris to move, it can only be affected by gravity."

"Therefore, this piece of three-dimensional debris is likely to be a naturally formed space debris after the planet's gravitational force tore apart the surrounding space, and it happened to wrap this planet inside..."

"Our luck is quite good, and we just encountered a 3% probability."

In the captain's room, a large group of experts, scholars, and soldiers are enthusiastically discussing the issue of planetary exploration.

"The probability of 3% is actually not small."

"No, no, this kind of three-dimensional fragments may be more than we expected." Another professor who studies the universe shook his head and expressed different opinions, "I bet there are many fallacies in our theory !"

"I think it may be far greater than 3%!"

"No, it's impossible. The probability of the formation of this three-dimensional space, 3%, is already overestimated, and the real probability may only be one percent."

What is the probability of the birth of three-dimensional fragments, and how it is formed is very important to scientists, and they are arguing about this point.

But for engineers and soldiers, it's not too important. They don't need to worry about the specific principles. Anyway, it's so lucky that a planet is in front of people's eyes.

After a while, more people gathered in the captain's cabin.

The first-hand reconnaissance content was played on the screen, and all kinds of data and photos were taken by the exploration satellite launched a few days ago.

This caused a lot of noise in this 1,000-square-meter large room.

"Everyone, everyone, please be quiet! Now begins the first exploration meeting of unknown planets."

Zhang Ran coughed heavily several times before the group of experts who were almost in a frenzy closed their mouths reluctantly.

"Congratulations to all of you for your hard work, and congratulations to all mankind. After an 11-month journey, we have found a three-dimensional space that can accommodate us!"

“We can see the normal world again with our own eyes.”

Clap clap!

There was a loud applause in the room.

Zhang Ran switched the content on the screen and said, "This piece of three-dimensional debris is roughly spherical in shape, with a diameter of about 1.79 million kilometers. Beyond this is the high-dimensional universe."

"Under the condition of ensuring your own safety, you are allowed to conduct relevant scientific experiments to further understand the nature of the high-dimensional universe."

"We have always supported scientific research when the fiscal deficit is acceptable. The current economic situation is still relatively ample."

Professor Huo of the high-dimensional laboratory immediately said: "We have collected a lot of data during the 11 months of our high-dimensional space voyage. Especially the data in the last month is very sufficient, and some new conjectures have been born."

"We need new instruments to verify these ideas, mainly neutrino detection devices, the price will not be very expensive, about 200 million yuan..."

Zhang Ran turned around and looked at Mr. Huo Dong, as if 200 million was not too much...

A large nuclear fusion power plant now requires an investment of 100 to 200 billion! The 200 billion yuan is once and for all, and it will not be a problem to use it for decades. If it is evenly divided, it can generate trillions of gdp every year, which must be profitable.

As a result, the famous Professor Huo actually only needs 200 million in research funding.

He even faintly doubted that 200 million is really enough to study neutrinos?

He couldn't help laughing in his heart: "Old Huo, you have changed. You have become picky and cautious. You used to have a loud voice. You have a violent temper, and you lose your temper even if you don't give money."

"Hey, Lao Huo, quickly come up with some results, and get stunned."

But on the surface, he didn’t say this, and nodded. Technology is the primary productive force, and it is also the main development core at present: “Reasonable request, you can declare it. If we do get a lot of resources on the planet, it is expected that this year’s finances will still be quite large. Loose."

This will not change for a long time to come.

At present, semiconductors are being vigorously developed, isn't it just for the development of technology, is it really impossible for everyone to play mobile games?

Huo Dong sighed lightly.

No results, even breathing is wrong.

Approval of 200 million yuan of funds can only be done with trepidation.

Zhang Ran can understand the inner pressure of these professors, so he doesn't urge them any more, just let them do their best... Sometimes too much pressure, worrying about gains and losses, is not necessarily a good thing.

He coughed lightly: "Then let's talk about the planetary issue..."

"As you all know, we launched several artificial satellites three days ago, and these three satellites have arrived above the planet and sent back first-hand information."

"Its gravity environment is 0.85 times that of the earth, and it is smaller than the earth."

"Because of the loss of light, the ground is extremely cold, the atmosphere on the surface has disappeared, most of the gas has condensed into solids, and a thick layer of snow has formed on the surface of the planet."

"Of course, there are also many geothermal areas with relatively little snow. Our infrared detectors can clearly see the geothermal areas on the planet. There are hot springs in some areas."

"The existence of geothermal heat shows that the core of this planet is still relatively active."

"As for the planet's magnetic field, it also exists, which is about 1.22 times that of the earth."

Speaking of this, Zhang Ran paused again, and clicked a picture on the screen: "Also, we are still above the planet, and we have discovered an artificial satellite..."

"It means that there used to be a technological civilization like ours, and it has developed to a higher level."

The conference room suddenly became very quiet.

This news is very important!

Many people present were breathless, and it was the first time for most of them to hear that civilization existed on the planet.

But also technological civilization!

Everyone began to rack their brains, thinking about what the information meant.

"The emergence of scientific and technological civilization means that there are big problems..." Zhao Weichao from the staff department spoke, "Since this planet has geothermal heat and technological civilization, and the planet's preservation is still intact, the technological civilization on it can go Where is it?"

"Just like us humans, even if the sun disappears, we can still rely on geothermal heat and underground shelters to survive for a while."

"But if no one survives ... something must have happened."

Zhao Weichao's meaning is obvious. No one should underestimate the potential of any technological civilization, especially a civilization in a desperate situation. No one can know.

Zhang Ran shook his head: "I don't know if there are survivors, but the satellites in the sky don't seem to be working anymore, and they haven't emitted any electromagnetic waves. There are no traces of man-made electromagnetic waves on the planet..."

"Well, some people may think that these satellites use dark matter communication or neutrino communication, but after discussion with our experts, we think the possibility is extremely low. In the three-dimensional world, electromagnetic waves are always the most economical way."

Zhang Ran paused, and then said: "We have sent an unmanned spacecraft to try to capture these artificial satellites. It will take about a week to bring them back, and then we will be able to analyze the matter."

The emergence of technological civilization is not necessarily a good thing.

Because many people have thought of the Void Amoeba, which has great malice towards life!

Mining machine made by advanced civilization!

Void amoebas can sense the presence of matter; jellies can also vaguely sense the presence of large amounts of matter; what about other silicon-based life forms?

With such a large planet here, are human beings really the luckiest batch?

Maybe... not necessarily.

Thinking of it this way, people felt a sense of dread in their hearts.

Fortunately...the Dongfang Panshi did not enter this place recklessly!

"Is it possible that this technological civilization predicted the occurrence of the disaster in advance, just like us humans, we also knew the occurrence of the disaster at the beginning."

"But they didn't predict that three-dimensional fragments would form here, and their parent star could still remain intact, so all the members left by accident?" Lin Qiuyue, who was sitting in the first row, asked with a clear voice .

"The possibility is very low, very low." Professor Huo of the high-dimensional laboratory said, "If they can take all the population and leave, it means that their technological strength is much higher than ours, and the probability of leaving the parent star by accident is actually not high. .The formation probability of three-dimensional fragments can be calculated even by us humans.”

"If they can't take everyone out, where does the population of the planet go?"

"If it is extinct, we have to consider additional risks. For example, is there a powerful silicon-based life similar to the void amoeba, which led to the extinction of this race."

"The geothermal energy of this planet seems to be too strong, as if something is happening deep in the core...for example, mining? If a large number of monsters crawl out from the ground, is it possible for us to defeat it?"

No one can answer this question.

But thinking about it this way has a bad premonition, slowly coming to mind, how the hell is there a civilization here?

It is still an extinct technological civilization, what is the purpose of extinct? !

It is better not to be extinct than to be extinct!

Not extinct... There is still the possibility of communication between the two sides, and the possibility of peaceful coexistence.

But being extinct can only mean...
