Chapter 226 Crazy Rotation

"Five...5 million tons! How is this possible?! That alien device is so big, how can it have a mass of five million tons? Ye Luo, have you made a new bug?" After hearing Ye Luo's answer, Wei Feng immediately widened his eyes. ☆→☆→,

"No, Captain, I didn't make any bugs." Ye Luo's tone of reply was still calm, "If you don't believe me, I can hand over these data to you and calculate it yourself. Although this is incredible, I have to say that this is true. By the way, Captain, I remind you again that the five million tons I mentioned are the lower limit of the mass of this alien device, not its accurate mass. Its mass may only be larger than five million tons, and it cannot be smaller than five million tons. As for how big it is... Sorry, there is not enough data to calculate, I cannot tell you the answer."

Wei Feng was silent. Because of the short hibernation time this time, Wei Feng's body did not suffer much damage. So Wei Feng's head was very clear at this moment. But because his head was clear, Wei Feng felt unacceptable.

The Xinghai spacecraft is so big, how much is its total mass? The alien device is so big, how can its mass be dozens of times that of the entire Xinghai spacecraft? What material is it made of? What material has such a large density?

Thinking of this, Wei Feng immediately asked again: "What is its lower density limit? Among the materials we know, what kind of materials have such a large density?"

It is already known that the volume and mass limit of this device are very simple, so it is very easy to calculate its density limit. So Ye Luo immediately answered: "Its density limit is 76 kilograms per cubic centimeter, about 76,000 times the water density. No material known to us humans has such a large density. Well, for comparison, the density of a white dwarf is about 1,000 kilograms per cubic centimeter. Although the density of a white dwarf is much higher than the density lower limit of this alien device, it can still be roughly believed that its density and the density of a white dwarf belong to the same order of magnitude."

"How is this possible?" Wei Feng murmured, "Was such a large density... the material that constitutes it has no electronic degenerate pressure?"

When ordinary matter is compressed to a certain level, the electron degenerate pressure will prevent its volume from shrinking further. Electron degenerate matter usually exists on white dwarfs, created by the huge gravity of the white dwarf. If a piece of white dwarf matter leaves the white dwarf and loses huge gravitational pressure, then the white dwarf matter will explode instantly and return to normal matter. This is because of the existence of degenerate pressure.

It is obvious that ordinary matter cannot have such a huge density, and what is more obvious is that this alien device is not in a high gravity environment like a white dwarf. According to common sense, it should be impossible for it to maintain such a state of existence. But it exists like this, and the facts force Wei Feng to believe this.

Then there is only one explanation left. This device has extremely high technical content. It was the unknown civilization that created it with unknown technology, so that it can maintain such an existence state in a low gravity environment.

This means a lot of things. The first point is that the technology that can create this kind of thing must be very superb. If you can obtain it, analyze its structure method, and let human civilization master this technology, the technology of human civilization may make another leap, and it is not impossible to open that dead knot.

Its value is simply immeasurable. But things are contradictory, and its quality is too great. This means that Wei Feng cannot capture it. It is like a poor man who clearly sees a mountain of gold ahead, but cannot move it away because he doesn't have enough strength.

This is a very frustrating thing. In the face of cruel reality, Wei Feng had to give up the idea of ​​capturing it.

But at this moment, Ye Luo spoke again.

"Captain...I have received some new data. These data...I don't know how to judge, so you should take a look."

"Oh?" Wei Feng was a little curious, so he climbed up from the hibernation cabin and came to the display screen.

Wei Feng saw the image of the alien device before displaying the screen, but at this moment it was rotating rapidly. Its screw-like body was rotating wildly with a point in the nut area as the center. Wei Feng was sure that it had not rotated before.

Wei Feng suddenly stood there.

"This is not the real image of the alien device. This is the data transmitted back by the sensors equipped on the four thrusters. I have processed the data and constructed the picture through a model. If our data is not wrong, I believe that the real movement form of the alien device at this moment should be similar to what is presented in the picture."

"So... Captain. Can you understand the information conveyed in these images?" Ye Luoyouyou asked.

Wei Feng nodded and said, "I can understand. It began to rotate itself. This incident conveyed two messages. One is that its technical content is not as high as we had previously thought. Two, we still have the opportunity to capture it."

"Yes." Ye Luo replied, "just disassemble the heaviest part. We can get the rest of the instruments."

"That's a black hole... a micro black hole that is almost certainly artificially made." Wei Feng sighed, "Although our human civilization also has the ability to create micro black holes in the laboratory, their existence can only be calculated based on the length of Planck's time. If this micro black hole can be obtained, it will definitely have a great promotion to the technology of our human civilization. But unfortunately, it is too heavy, and we have no ability to capture it, so we can only abandon it and then obtain the instruments in the rest of the parts."

When Wei Feng saw the rotation of the instrument, he concluded that there was a black hole there. This seemed very unorganized, but this conclusion was obtained through rigorous logical thinking.

There is a very simple truth: the larger the mass, the harder its movement state will be to change. Therefore, if the density of this instrument is really as large as it is speculated, the push of the four thrusters should not change any movement state. What it was before and now it will also be like. It did not rotate before, and now it will not rotate.

But it now has rotation, and it begins to rotate around a part of its structure. This means that the mass of the rest of its structural parts is actually very low. Most of the mass in the lower limit of the five million tons is concentrated on its rotation point. At the same time, the connection between the rotation point and the alien device determines that the device can only move without changing the distance.

What is the motion state without changing the distance? It is obviously a circular motion. Now, the crazy rotation of this alien device around the rotation point is obviously also a circular motion.

Only when this is determined can its current state of motion be reasonably explained.

Based on the part where the alien device is moving at this moment, the upper volume limit of the rotation point can be obtained. Dividing the lower mass limit by the upper volume limit, the lower density limit of the heavy object can be obtained. This is a very simple calculation process. Just after a mental calculation, Wei Feng obtained the calculation result: its lower density limit is ten tons per cubic centimeter. This is already ten times the density of a typical white dwarf, but it is far from reaching the density of neutron star matter.

And this density is only its lower limit of density. According to the changes in total mass and volume, its true density may be many times that of this number.

And... the white dwarf and neutron star matter cannot maintain such a dense state of existence after leaving the star body and losing the constraints of huge gravity. Of course, the possibility of maintaining the state of existence by unknown technology cannot be ruled out here, but Wei Feng can be sure that the technical means must be very superb, even tens of thousands of years higher than the current human civilization.

A dense state matter maintained by super technology is one possibility, and another possibility is a dense state that does not require super technology to maintain. Instead, a dense state that does not require super technology to maintain is only a black hole. Obviously, a black hole equivalent to the mass of the sun is a black hole, and a black hole of 1,000 tons of mass is still a black hole. It is not like a white dwarf and a neutron star. A white dwarf with a mass of the sun is a white dwarf, and a piece of white dwarf with a mass of 1,000 tons will turn into ordinary matter.

Then what is the core heavy object becomes a probability problem. One may be that the heavy object is a dense state of existence maintained by advanced technology, and the other may be that it is a miniature black hole. The technological content of a micro black hole is much lower than that of a white dwarf or neutron star.

Based on preliminary observations of this alien device, such as those exposed pipelines, cables, channels, etc., it seems unlikely that it has such a high technical content. This means that the probability of "super technology" is extremely low, and the probability of micro black holes is correspondingly extremely high.

So, after seeing the alien device spinning wildly under the push of four thrusters, Wei Feng immediately concluded that "one, its technical content is not as high as we had previously imagined. Two, we still have the opportunity to capture it" and believed that it has a micro black hole in it.

Obviously, as long as you find a way to throw away the black hole, Wei Feng can capture this alien device into his own hands. (To be continued.)
