Chapter 1187 Lonely Starry Sky 2
The Great Magellanic Cloud is a distance of more than 100,000 light-years from the Milky Way galaxy ring. At this distance, the Milky Way has not had much gravity. If it weren't for the Great Magellanic Cloud and the Milky Way themselves, it would be impossible for them to bind small galaxies like the Great Magellanic Cloud just by relying on the gravity of the Milky Way itself.
The Big Magellanic Cloud itself has a diameter of seven or eight thousand light years, and it is not a small thing!
Now, after a long voyage, the fleet has begun to escape the gravitational range of the Great Magellanic Cloud. In fact, it is 200,000 light years away from the Milky Way! This distance is almost one-tenth of the Andromeda galaxy! But things cannot be calculated like this! In fact, as theoretically deduced, the real interstellar space and the galaxy space inside the galaxy are different! Everyone already feels it!
The fleet entered a sub-light speed state, or had turned off the engine, but was flying by relying on inertia. Anyway, there is no resistance in the universe, and the gravitational force of the Milky Way itself is not much left at this distance. If the energy is sufficient, it can fly to the Andromeda galaxy by relying on inertia, but it is estimated that it will take more than 3 million years, which is obviously unrealistic!
All personnel are very familiar with the operation. Each spacecraft enters sub-light speed and inertial flight almost at the same time. A few of them have not reached the designated position. There is no problem with a slight adjustment. Every expeditioner is an elite. Although it is dangerous, it is a time of racing against time. No one can say what else will be angry at the center of the Milky Way!
Therefore, in principle, this exploration will not accept failure! Faced with the unknown interstellar space, brave adventurers must find a way here. At least they must understand the temper of interstellar space, etc., to lay the foundation for future interstellar migration.
Although many detectors have been launched before, the detectors are ultimately detectors, and no exploration can match the direct exploration of people themselves.
A group of data was explored on site and felt the faintly different feeling personally. It was completely different from the group of data sent back by the detector.
For example, a glass of water, the temperature detected is the most comfortable to be around 30 degrees, but what kind of comfortable method is it? This is not something that numbers can express! How can you feel it directly? Of course, you can take a sip yourself! It is simple and direct, and you can understand what you feel. And you will know how to adjust the water temperature in the future - at this time, you don’t even need a thermometer!
In cosmic exploration, the same is true, the data of the detector in front is just data! Moreover, in the face of different environments, the data of the detector may not be accurate.
Just like a thermometer that used to detect the water temperature, you asked it to detect the temperature of the flame, which is obviously a problem!
"I feel that it's a little different, but I can't say that there is any difference!" The prince of the fairy civilization spoke first.
Red Snake. Fang also observed for a while and spoke slowly: "I also feel that I am a little calmer, and my mood is much calmer, um... and I feel that the surroundings seem to be much clearer. Alas, why do I feel that there is something wrong with the spacecraft? I always feel a little awkward, but I can't say it.
Also, as the spaceship advances, these feelings become stronger and stronger. The feeling...it can't be a problem with my senses!"
Gradually, the discussions around became louder and louder, and many people began to feel awkward. And as the fleet advanced, everyone's feelings became more and more obvious.
Chen Dali, Mu Zili, Hongxing and Mu Yingjie never spoke, but it could be seen that the four of them looked increasingly serious!
If at the beginning, people thought it was a problem such as visual misalignment, but now no one thinks this way!
When everyone is in this situation, it means it is not your own problem or your personal problem. It is because there is really something wrong with the outside world!
"All spaceships will pause and slow down! slow down!" Chen Dali ordered urgently! Although everyone had already determined to die when they set off, they should not die blindly. Even if they die, they would have to die. Otherwise, if these spaceships and preparations were not brought back at all useful value, it would be a huge loss to the Chinese civilization; most importantly, if they were delayed at this critical moment, who would be responsible!
"The power of the space braking technology is 54%, 53%...it is still decreasing, and it is expected that the stop will take four times longer than the rated time." As soon as the space brake was ready, the computer began to call the alarm.
"There is a problem in space!" At the first moment, Chen Dali and the other two realized that the interstellar space outside the universe is really different from the space inside the universe!
After more than half an hour, all the spacecraft stopped and maintained an extremely slow movement speed, which was only about one kilometer per second. This speed is really not fast in space. The reason for maintaining this speed is to balance the gravity of the Milky Way. Although the gravity here is already very low, it is not without it.
"Everyone starts checking. First check their own work, then follow the plan, cross checking. Check the problem!"
"Proofread the instrument first!"
“Check the space distortion.”
"Check the ship's situation."
After orders were issued one by one, all personnel began to be mobilized urgently. This is a matter of life safety. No one still needs others to supervise, and even naturally forms self-interpretation.
One by one, after one day, the report summary, everything was perfect, yes, perfect, no difference was checked out!
However, this is obviously wrong! Although the changes around are slight, everyone present can feel them! Not to mention anything else, the current Chinese civilization is almost equivalent to the adult standard; therefore, every Chinese scientist on the scene is basically at the level of the Golden Elixir Stage or above, and these people have very sensitive senses!
The changes at the scene were even felt by the prince Guangming and Qingguang of the Fairy Clan, let alone others.
"Sure enough, it is right to come out and explore actively!" Mo Yingjie was very calm at this time. "Maybe, we are the victims of the authorities, and maybe we can try to check and examine the current situation from the perspective of bystanders.
I think everyone doesn’t have to worry too much. After all, we are just exploring, and if we can get something, it’s the best. Now we have made a discovery, and maybe it should be worth being happy.”
"Oh, that's right!" Hongxing first reacted, "Haha, don't say it, it's different from being an officer's head. Yes, we were originally going to explore and explore, isn't it what we expected now? Yes, that's it. There's no need to check now, anyway, we should be safe for the time being, now, we should start researching!"
You can say that when this change of thought, when the external environment and physical conditions remain unchanged, everyone was not nervous, but started their respective research projects.
Exclusions, inspections, and even verification of certain conjectures!
Finally, a scientist named Kong Zhiren, who was in charge of the space project, discovered the problem and explained it in detail, and also listed a series of solutions.
Elite scientists with gains always receive attention. Under the current Chinese civilized social system, an effective scientist is a shortcut to the aristocrats, which is a more appropriate path than military merit.
Facing everyone, Kong Zhiren did not take it all, but pulled all his team over... At this moment, glory belonged not only to Kong Zhiren, but also to this team!
There are no boring opening remarks, nor are there any lively fans. This is a spaceship, the center of the fleet, and it is in the depths of the universe. There are only scientists and elites of all sizes. Everyone is very straightforward and comes up and goes straight to the topic. It’s in a hurry!
Many listeners even had experiments on their hands, but they didn't stop the research project and just brought a pair of ears to connect.
"Ahem, I just discovered something, and after verification, it has been basically confirmed. That is, due to gravity, the interstellar space inside the Milky Way is indeed completely different from the external interstellar space. This difference can be described as this.
That is, the Milky Way is like a huge vortex, but outside the Milky Way, it is a pool of stagnant water.
The vortex of the Milky Way is formed by the gravity of the galaxy itself, which makes space fluctuate. The zero-space distortion we use as a reference is taken from the space of the Milky Way. In fact, there are still twists.
Outside the Milky Way, the space is not distorted much, or even almost deadly, which is closest to the zero point of space. Therefore, the time and space we are in have changed. Time and space have changed, so mechanical equipment, spacecraft, personal senses, etc. have changed. I tested the angles of the main keels of the spacecraft on ten spacecrafts and found that all the angles have an error of one billionth of an error. This is caused by spatial changes.
If this error is not corrected, our future fleet may be lost in the universe. My personal suggestion is to relocate the spacecraft production factory directly into the universe for production.
Also, the space of the universe and interstellar space is denser and compact, which is a bit like the characteristics of our space freezing technology, which makes the space acceleration of the spacecraft not reach theoretical values. According to the latest calculation results, if we fly in such a space, it is like sending a ship to a swamp, and whether we can reach the other side is a problem.
Perhaps, we should look for another way! The time and danger of flying directly to the Andromeda galaxy may be beyond our imagination. Otherwise, with the technology of level 7 civilization, we would not have built artificial wormholes to leave the Milky Way."
"Can't you fly directly into interstellar space?" This was like an iron rod hitting the heads of all scientists.
