Interstellar Industrial Age

Chapter 5, Time and Space

Let's go, according to the plan, even the nearest spacecraft to the Centaur galaxy will take at least 50 years to reach the Centaur galaxy. The interstellar universe is too vast.

It's still a bit too reluctant to talk about interstellar colonization with our current technology. It's better to study the warp engine technology.

Seeing the eight spaceships disappearing from sight, Qin Yi shook his head helplessly.

Humans have never encountered any alien civilization until now. This does not mean that there is really only human civilization in the void of the universe.

Scientists' assumptions are more likely because the starry sky is too vast, and the long and distant distances, which are often calculated in light-years, seriously hinder the exchanges and exchanges between various galaxies.

Before the technology has developed to a certain stage and a powerful and advanced spaceship has not been developed, no one will go to the starry universe at all.

Even today's people on Earth are considered to be level 2 cosmic civilizations according to the division of civilization, basically breaking away from Jupiter and starting to develop in the parent galaxy.

Even if there is already a spacecraft like the Han Wu Dadi, it has all the conditions for sailing in the interstellar universe, but it is still difficult to colonize the interstellar universe.

The 8 unmanned spaceships dispatched this time are unmanned spaceships, so their speed has been accelerating from the very beginning, and the problem of acceleration has not been considered at all.

According to the scientists' settings, after a long acceleration process, the eight spacecraft will eventually fly towards the eight nearest galaxies in the solar system at a speed of 30,000 kilometers per second, which is one-tenth the speed of light. .

One-tenth of the speed of light, this is an extremely amazing speed. The speed of 30,000 kilometers per second is also an extremely terrifying speed. However, in the universe, this speed is still very, very slow. It is only the speed of light. A tenth, to the nearest Centaurus galaxy, it also takes 43 years.

From here, we can know that sailing in the interstellar universe requires not only faster speed, but also longer lifespan.

The average lifespan of people on earth is only over 70 years old. It takes 43 years to travel to the Centaurus galaxy at one-tenth the speed of light. If it is considered the time of acceleration and deceleration, it may take more than half a century.

Such a long time is almost equal to half a person's life,

I set off when I was young and arrived at the Centaur Galaxy, which is already in its twilight and old age.

And in this interstellar universe, whether there will be some other problems, etc., no one knows, this may be the biggest problem of interstellar space navigation.

Speed ​​and time!

To be precise, it should be space and time.

The warp engine, the Academy of Sciences has already carried out theoretical research, and the current progress is general, and in terms of materials, we estimate that at least degenerate materials are needed to meet the needs of the warp engine.

We have already solved the energy technology. The huge energy generated by the controllable nuclear fusion technology is enough. I estimate that we will not be able to research the warp engine technology for at least half a century.

Speaking of warp engine technology, Liu Peiqiang also shook his head and said.

The relevant theory of warp engine technology, Qin Yi has also come out here, scientists are studying and researching hard, this is under the premise of learning and research, he estimates that it will take half a century.

If there is no information on Qin Yi's side, this time is really hard to say, maybe 100 years, 500 years, or even 1000 years are possible.

I understand now that this life exists widely in the universe, but why have we not encountered aliens so far, because the universe is so vast.

Liu Peiqiang let out a long sigh. Only when he truly recognizes the vastness of the universe will he understand his own insignificance. In front of the vast universe, human beings are still spinning in circles at the origin.

Half a century?

Qin Yi smiled when he heard it, and then said, It's good to be able to study it in half a century. The key now is to lay a solid foundation.

The foundation is solid, and talents continue to emerge like carp crossing the river, then our technology can advance by leaps and bounds.

Now, the population is still too small.

Qin Yi turned his head to look in the direction of Mars, the blue planet stood quietly in the void, exuding a halo of mist, very beautiful and soul-stirring.

Looking at the more distant void, Qin Yi tried to find the location of the earth, but the distance between the earth and Mars is so far away that it is impossible to see the earth with the naked eye.

Looking into the more distant void universe, it was pitch black, with a few bright stars shining brightly. Qin Yi knew that under this seemingly pitch-black void universe, if you use a powerful cosmic astronomical telescope to look at it, you would You will find that it is also very prosperous and bright.

Even if it is a very small, very small, very dark area, it also has countless stars, but the void of the universe is too vast. The light of the stars passes through the endless void and becomes extremely faint. It's hard to tell at all.

Only the most advanced cosmic astronomical science telescopes can distinguish these faint rays of light, analyze these rays of light, and then know how far away the light comes from.

It is very likely that it is just a very ordinary light, which has gone through hundreds of millions of years in the vast void of the universe. All the rays of light from the universe that human beings see now are actually many , the light of many years ago.

From this point of view, time and space seem to be very contradictory. We and everything else in the universe do not seem to be living in the same space and time, because what we are seeing now is not knowing how many millions of years ago sight.

What is happening on our side now, across the distant void, when they see it, an inexplicable number of long years have passed.

Time and Space~

These two words kept lingering in Qin Yi's mind.

How about we go to the new magic city to see?

It can also be regarded as a rest, just take a walk, the first batch of earth immigrants have arrived in the new magic city, just go and take a look.

Liu Peiqiang nodded, then thought about it and suggested.

Alright, let's go.

Qin Yi came back to his senses and replied with a smile.

Soon, the three spaceships left the space factory, flew directly into Mars, and flew towards the new magic city at the mouth of the Little Yangtze River in the Middle-earth mainland.

PS: It is really interesting to think about it. The sun we see now is the sun 8 minutes ago. The starlight we see at night is the light of many years ago, some even millions of years ago. light. So people imagine that the world we live in is not the real world? Will it be the same, in fact, we are all living in an illusory world? What we see is not its real face. In front of time and space, everything is illusory and unreal.
