Dahan Technology Empire
Chapter 16, Centaur Civilization
The vast universe is incomparably vast. The Milky Way with a diameter of 100,000 light-years is just one of the most inconspicuous ordinary existences. The Centaurus galaxy on the Orion arm of the Milky Way is very close to the Sun galaxy, and the distance of 4.3 light-years is placed in the universe. Inconspicuous at all, the two galaxies are as close as they are glued together.
However, even this inconspicuous distance, for humans in the solar system, it takes more than 20 years to reach with the current technology. The universe is really vast, and the footsteps of human beings came to the solar system for the first time. other galaxies.
Explorer 1 is the first among the spacecraft of the Explorer system, and it is also the first spacecraft to be launched. It was built to explore the alien civilization in the Qingquan technology period. At that time, a total of a series of Explorer spacecraft were built. , all sent to the nearest star system to the solar system.
Explorer 1 was launched to the Centaurus galaxy, the closest galaxy to the solar system. After traveling at 0.2 times the speed of light for more than 20 years, it is finally about to reach the Centaur constellation.
4.3 light-years away in the void of the universe. At this time, the Explorer 1 has been fully awakened, and all kinds of exploration instruments are fully activated. The original communication with the earth was only once a week because of the energy problem, and now it has all been completed. Start working and send all the information to the control center located in the solar system through quantum communication technology!
Thanks to advanced communication technology, Explorer 1 and the control center far away in the solar system can communicate in real time. Otherwise, if we rely on traditional electromagnetic wave signals, this one-way communication will also take 4.3 years, and it takes 4.3 years to exchange information with each other. In 8.6 years, communication technology will be as important as transportation technology, otherwise in the vast universe, it will be impossible to move an inch!
Explorer 1 is still a year away from the constellation Centaurus, but at this time the light of the three stars in the constellation Centaurus is already very dazzling, and the light of the solar system behind it is already very weak. It is difficult to find it deliberately. Found among the stars in the sky.
Drip~drip~drip~drip~
The various instruments on the Explorer 1 were fully turned on, and the electromagnetic wave receivers received very strong and apparently regular electromagnetic signals, and immediately began to fully receive these signals. At the same time, other instruments also began to target them. Detect the Centaur.
Alpha Centauri is a triple star system, which is the closest star system to the sun. It has three stars, which are numbered a star, b star and c star, of which the c star in the constellation Centauri is named as Proxima Centauri.
The Explorer 1 with all its instruments turned on quickly sent items of data back to the control center far away in the solar system. At this time, the control center in the space of Mars in the solar system was also full of people, including the emperor Liu Qingquan in the solar system. Inside, scientists from all walks of life have all flocked here at this time.
According to the news from Explorer 1, there are obvious and regular electromagnetic signals here in Centaurus, and there is only one reasonable explanation for generating such electromagnetic signals, that is, there are civilizations similar to Earth civilization here!
Naturally, the news quickly spread throughout the empire, and all interested scientists flocked here to obtain more detailed information as soon as possible.
The hall of the control center was crowded, and famous scientists and nobles of the empire were discussing casually where there was no image at this time, discussing what kind of civilization the Centaur civilization would be, and what level of technology would they be? What will their attitude to human civilization be?
Liu Qingquan, who is in his 50s, doesn't look any different from decades ago. The profound cultivation of Yuan Li has given him a long lifespan. Don't even think about leaving the slightest trace on him. , On the other hand, those who did not work hard in cultivating Yuan Li were a little old-fashioned at this time.
Boss, what do you think the civilization of Centaur will be like? Jiang Zhipeng, who is also in his 50s, looks very young at this time.
Still calling Liu Qingquan the eldest as he did decades ago, this seems to be the privilege of their generation. After all, Liu Qingquan today is also the emperor of a country, so it is too trivial to call him that.
I don't have clairvoyance, how do I know, but being able to use electromagnetic wave communication technology shows that the level of civilization should not be low! Liu Qingquan shook his head, and he had been looking forward to the civilization of the Centaur for a long time, although he knew the universe for a long time. Civilizations are common among them, but the real contact is the first time.
It's better to have a higher level of civilization. This technology development sometimes requires more communication. There must be no good communication with primitive civilization. We can't learn how to grind stone knives! Mo Qingming was also very casual.
The level of civilization is too high! Our technology level can only be regarded as a level 2 cosmic civilization. In the universe, it is not even a war five scum, and any one that comes out can completely blow us up! Immediately someone objected , Looking back, it turned out to be Chen Shuiwa, the child from the Loess Plateau, who is now in his 50s.
Where can there be a civilization that is too advanced around the solar system, if there is, we would have been captured long ago!
Our technology can develop rapidly, and it is hard to guarantee that others can also, maybe they will run ahead of us!
...
Liu Qingquan shook his head and looked at them arguing. He could see that everyone was more concerned about the results. One was their level of development, and the other was their attitude towards alien civilizations.
Cosmic exploration is like this. On the one hand, we hope to encounter civilization, and on the other hand, we remain vigilant enough about it. This is the attitude of human beings towards the unknown, which is both curious and afraid!
Not participating in the debate between them, Liu Qingquan looked down at the screen in the hall. At this time, Explorer 1, which was 4.3 light away, had already sent back a lot of information, including the basic information of Centaur. It is already very clear.
The three stars in the constellation Centaurus, of which two stars a and b have the same mass as the sun, attract each other and are relatively stable. They belong to the early stage, but they have entered a stable period, and the closest star to the solar system is also It is the star we call Proxima Centauri. Its mass is smaller than that of the solar system, only one-seventh of that of the sun, and it is about the same size as Jupiter!
Proxima Centauri is a red dwarf star with a surface temperature much lower than that of the solar system, only over 3000 K, which is more than 2700 degrees, but there is a planet at a very close distance from it!
In 2015, astronomers used eso's astronomical telescopes and other facilities to discover that there is sufficient evidence for the existence of a planet in the nearest star system (proximacentauri, also known as Proxima Centauri).
The long-observed world, dubbed proximab, orbits its red dwarf parent star in 11-day cycles, with the right temperature to maintain liquid water on its surface. This planet is slightly more massive than Earth, and is the closest exoplanet to Earth, and probably the most likely to have life outside our solar system.
That is to say, in 2015, astronomers on earth have discovered the planet of Proxima Centauri, and by artificially assuming that it should have liquid water, and then infer that it is most likely to have life!
But in fact, according to the information returned by Explorer 1, Proxima Centauri captured that there is no life on the planet. This planet is a completely dead star, without the slightest vitality.
The electromagnetic signals captured by Explorer 1 did not come from here, but from the middle region of the other two stars, the region that everyone thinks is the least likely to have life.
When talking about this, let’s talk about the two stars a and b. The mass of star a is slightly larger than that of the sun, and the mass of star b is slightly smaller than that of the sun. The distance between the two is about 10 AU.
Among them, star a has a larger mass and captured 4 planets by its own gravity, and star b also has 3 galaxies, but the electromagnetic signal is not transmitted from these 7 planets, but from the middle of the two stars. The moving point, that is, the position of the Lagrangian point.
I have to sigh about the magic of the universe. The mass and volume of this planet are much larger than the earth, about 10 times the mass of the earth! The distance from star a is about 6 AU, and the distance from star b is a little more than 4 AU. The gravitational force of the two stars a and b just pulls each other. This is a planet without an autobiography!
Yes, this is a planet without an autobiography. The huge gravitational force of the two stars completely controls the planet. Because there is no autobiography, its gravity should be relatively small, but its mass is ten times that of the earth, just right It also makes up for the lack of lack of autobiographical gravity. In fact, its gravity is similar to that of the earth. After all, where is the mass!
Originally, in terms of the planet's position from the star, it is impossible to produce life, but because it is illuminated by two stars, and it is always illuminated by two stars, its surface temperature is very suitable. The birth of life is neither high nor low!
The distance from the star is relatively far, the temperature is not too high, and at the same time, it has been continuously irradiated by two stars, and the temperature is not too low. The average temperature of this planet is about 20 degrees, a very comfortable temperature!
Because it has no autobiography and is continuously illuminated by two stars, it is different from the earth. The cold zone here is a north-south circle. This cold zone divides the planet into two worlds, the side illuminated by a star and the The side illuminated by the star b.
As more and more electromagnetic wave signals are received and the deciphering of the signals progresses, everyone knows that this planet is called Blue Beaver Star by the civilization here!
ps: wow kaka, blue raccoon star, guess what the aliens here will grow into? Haha, all kinds of requests~~(To be continued.)
