How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 786 It's Like Magic

A group of superluminal creatures developed by amoebas set off from the neighboring stars of the group's parent star, and their destination is the parent star system where Ming is located.

The super-light speed state is different from the sub-light speed state, and there is no starbow phenomenon, because the relative speed of the creatures at this moment has exceeded the speed of light, and they catch up with the light emitted earlier than before departure, so it will produce the effect of time regression , if viewed intuitively with the naked eye, it seems that the entire universe is moving away from superluminal organisms.

This kind of 'backtracking in time' is not really going back to the past, but just browsing past information.

The situation is different from that at the sublight speed, but there is also the same point, that is, the same as the sublight speed state, the sailing state is still blind.

Although past information can be seen, the time and space of the universe is always expanding, so these information will be distorted by time and space. The stars in the sky seen by superluminal creatures are showing a state of 'shrinking'. Considering The movement of various celestial bodies, if you want to use past information as a reference coordinate, the risk is undoubtedly very high.

As shown in the sci-fi movies and TV shows, superluminal creatures suddenly appear in the parent star system in a teleportation manner, accompanied by waves of space-time ripples.

It's not really teleportation, it's just that after the speed of light is exceeded, the light scattered by the superluminal creatures cannot catch up with the superluminal creatures and reach their destination earlier than those lights.

In the parent star system, Huogu and the others are looking forward to the return of the superluminal creatures. This time, the experiment is to let them form a group in front of the nearest star system, and then return from there.

Through radar waves and the active broadcasting of information by the superluminal creatures, Hogu and the others immediately learned the location of the superluminal creatures.

After entering the parent star system, the faster-than-light creatures poured out a large amount of negative matter, leaving only a small amount of negative matter, and continued to move toward Ming at a low speed of light with the help of universal repulsion.

Yes, the traveling way of distorting space-time is not limited to superluminal speed, it is also possible to travel below light speed, and does not need to consume any propellant, so the specific impulse formula is meaningless.

Looking at the radio message sent back by the superluminal creature, Min couldn't help but admire.

[It’s amazing. In this way, moving does not need to consume any energy at all. Gravity will not disappear but can be used to produce negative matter. Therefore, negative matter will be continuously produced. Biological organisms equipped with such biological organs can only It is necessary to control the on-off valve for the negative matter to realize the superluminal movement. 】

In more realistic terms, it's 'almost like magic'.

If you don't delve into the principle, it's just a pure accident. From the performance point of view, the superluminal creatures seem to have obtained a huge amount of energy out of thin air, and they perform 'superluminal displacement' and 'instant deceleration without inertia'.

The momentum of matter seems to be placed or taken arbitrarily by an invisible hand of God, which completely subverts the three views of the masters of classical mechanics.

Yes, the movement of organisms no longer needs matter to carry out, so there is no need to carry a large amount of propellant, and even the energy consumption is minimal, which is the true sense of non-propellant propulsion.

I used to think that the true sense of propulsion without propellant is just a myth that is difficult to realize. Deep space navigation always needs matter as a medium.

From the primitive to the high-temperature jet of chemical rockets, advanced to the pulse tail flame released by the annihilation of positive and negative matter, they all follow the third law of mechanics in essence—the action and reaction between two interacting objects are always They are equal in size and opposite in direction, acting on the same straight line.

According to the third law of mechanics, the spaceship ejects matter backwards, thereby obtaining a driving force on the same straight line as the ejected matter, equal in size and opposite in direction.

It is too difficult to jump out of this framework. If the collectors had not unearthed the remains of the Hui civilization and confirmed the existence of negative matter, I am afraid that the amoeba would still have a long detour to go.

[Fields can also be regarded as matter. 】

Huo Gu's not-so-serious statement drew Ming's correction, but Ming still had his own doubts.

[Material movement is just a manifestation of the energy-distorted space-time feeding back to matter. 】

[However, I don’t understand. If an obstacle is encountered while traveling faster than the speed of light, wouldn’t the energy generated by the collision exceed the Big Bang itself? 】

About superluminal creatures encountering obstacles during navigation

That's not the case. What exceeds the speed of light is the space-time around the organism. The light-speed limitation of matter in space-time has not changed. The matter encountered when sailing faster than the speed of light is equivalent to being dragged by the gravitational force of the gravitational ring in front and collided. It’s very powerful, but at least it won’t exceed the energy released by a sublight speed collision.”

[Then if a rope is thrown behind in the state of superluminal speed, the length of the rope is long enough to extend to the normal space-time environment, and if the organism can still move faster than the speed of light, then the rope in the normal time-space should also be superluminal, But this violates the principle that the speed of light of objects with static mass cannot be surpassed. 】

Of course it will break. As a static mass object, the rope cannot move faster than the speed of light, and the displacement speed of creatures in the distorted space-time is indeed faster than the speed of light. This difference is equivalent to the tearing force brought by the expansion of space-time when the rope is subjected to If the rope can withstand it, the displacement of the organism cannot exceed the speed of light; if the rope cannot withstand breaking, the organism can travel faster than the speed of light.”

Huo Gu explained its understanding of superluminal speed, and then it noticed that the superluminal creatures were somewhat different from before departure.

Organisms are arranged into a pyramid-like structure of quadrangular prisms. The interior of this structure is hollow, with only a thin layer.

Why do you maintain this formation? Hogu asked.

Will, our radio communication plan is wrong. We actually tried it, but we couldn't establish any communication with the same race in the direction of 180 degrees vertical to the central axis of the keel.

Isn't it the same speed at the same direction? Huo Gu was taken aback.

It's the same direction and the same speed, so it should be relatively static, but we still wrongly substituted the inertial system. After the electromagnetic wave exceeds the distorted space-time, it can't catch up with the same race that is going faster than the speed of light.

Huo Guming realized, So this is your solution?

Yes, through such a quadrangular pyramid array, the individual at the head can transmit radio information to the same family at the rear, so as to ensure the transmission of information.

But how can the individual in the rear transmit information to the front?

Group communication is necessary, especially for interstellar voyages. If you encounter difficulties in a complex environment, you should brainstorm more, so that you can consider the problem more comprehensively.

Gatherers give their solutions.
