There was applause in the hall.

Yuan Xiao pressed one hand on the table, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Hamid and Curtis glanced at each other, and it was time for their performance.

"How many minutes are left before entering the scheduled observation point?" Curtis began to direct.

"Estimated 10 minutes."

"Adjust the mirror angle and synchronize the image data. I need to see the clearest picture," Curtis ordered, "The spectrum analyzer should also be used closely."

The hall immediately became busy again.

For the audience behind, Nalanxuan held his chin with great interest: "It seems that they are well prepared.

Not sure what kind of stuff we're going to see. "

To this, no one around answered.

The time passed by more than one minute and one second, and while the telescope adjusted its angle, it also arrived at the scheduled observation point smoothly.

"Start observation! The target S22820 starry sky area, the distance is estimated to be 6.5 light-years."

Yuan Xiao stood up straight.

The screen flickered for a while, and finally stabilized.

Target designated area, successfully locked.

"It is very clear and can be observed. This is a white dwarf!"

The audience at the back basically didn't understand astronomy, and in their eyes, they were all bright spots, big and small.

"Everything is normal, entering the spectrometer analysis stage..."

Everyone couldn't help standing up at this moment, staring at the screen.

"This is... the data of the spectrometer has been sent back... this is..." The staff in charge of the data echoed in the hall, "There is a serious error in the data of the spectrometer!"

Chapter 630 Everything can be connected in series

Hearing this, the hearts of most people present sank.

Tens of billions of dollars have been invested in the Space Eye project, which is almost everyone's painstaking effort.

The spectroscopic analysis instrument mounted on the telescope, if something goes wrong, is already in space.

Sending people up to repair it would be another huge expense.

Jin Zhengchun couldn't help clenching his fists: "How could there be such a low-level mistake."

Nalanxuan looked at the calm Yuan Xiao, and he shook his head lightly: "There's no rush."

These were just words of comfort, and all the ministers looked serious.

Even Hamid and Curtis were sweating profusely.

Only Yuan Xiao remained calm: "What happened?

What went wrong?

Show the data. "

The principle of spectral analysis is that different elements emit different spectra.

Using this feature, it is possible to analyze what elements the object contains based on the spectrum emitted by the observed object.

This is widely used in astronomy.

Through this method, it is easy to know what elements are contained in a star millions of light-years away.

Now, after Space Eye enters orbit, the first observed celestial body is only 6.5 light-years away.

In the field of astronomy, this is simply a neighbor next door.

And spectral analysis is not a very esoteric technology.

But something as simple as this happened to go wrong.

The head of the department almost collapsed to the ground.

Soon, the analysis data appeared on the big screen.

The broken spectral bars look a little ironic at this moment.

Hamid and Curtis were stunned for a moment.

For the rest of the people, they still don't know what went wrong.

"What's your conclusion?" Yuan Xiao asked.

"Lord," the person in charge of data analysis cried, "According to the results of the spectral analysis obtained now, we found that...

The object we observe, the area where it is located, has many unnatural elements.

This is impossible in astronomical research.

We clearly know that our universe and nature cannot produce these elements. "

As soon as the conclusion came out, most people were full of frustration.

Only Yuan Xiao smiled.

Hamid and Curtis, who were beside him, were stunned for a moment, and then suddenly laughed and hugged each other.

"We made it!"

"Our guess is correct!"

"Yes," Yuan Xiao sighed deeply, and he patted the shoulders of the two, "Congratulations, you have succeeded!"

"Lord," the person in charge of the data was at a loss, "What should I do about this error?"

Hamid turned back with a smile: "Who said this is a wrong conclusion?"

"But..." The other party felt that he was going crazy.

"What's going on?" Jin Zhengchun also realized that something was wrong.

"That's all for today, sort out the existing data," Yuan Xiao ordered, "Everyone can go home early and rest, thank you for your hard work.

Our launches and observations were very successful. "

He leads the applause.

Except for Hamid and Curtis, the rest followed sparsely.

Out of nowhere, the staff left.

Yuan Xiao smiled at everyone: "Let's go, I will explain it to everyone."

In the meeting room of the municipal government, all the important ministers under Yuan Xiao's command were sitting.

On the electronic screen on the wall, the captured images of galaxies are played page by page.

There is also the spectral data just analyzed.

Curtis was in charge of the explanation. He tried his best to sort out the cause and effect in terms that everyone could understand.

"The reason why the spectroscopic analysis shows many elements that do not exist in nature is simply that these elements are man-made," Curtis concluded, "so it fits our original estimate.

There, there used to be a planet that should have a high degree of civilization. "

All the people present were stunned.

For a long time, they thought that their civilization was the only one.

As the doctrine says, this planet is a gift from the true God, the only miracle in the universe.

The new continent under our feet is the last hope of mankind.

The evidence that came out now completely overturned everyone's concept.

Jin Zhengchun took a deep breath: "You mean, there exists a civilization related to us."

"That's right. Later, because of the death of the star, it was involved in the expansion of the star. It should have been burned clean." Hamid confirmed.

"The only thing left is the bits and pieces that shattered into fragments," Curtis added. "This is also the result of our spectral analysis."

Yuan Xiao was very calm: "If there is one, there are two. Maybe there are similar civilizations in other places."

"Our planet, the destruction of the former civilization, was about 200 years ago," Na Lanxuan smoked, "You just said that the destruction of that planet may be at the same time.

So is it possible to guess that this so-called interstellar civilization experienced major problems 200 years ago, affecting all immigrant planets. "

Duan Duanheng patted his fan: "There is also a possibility that the destroyed planet is the origin of our civilization.

The reason why we left from the Old World may have something to do with their demise. "

This is a very reasonable inference, and no one objects to it.

"Unexpectedly," Su Chenyi also didn't recover for a long time, "What the teacher said before is actually true."

Yuan Xiao didn't jump for joy: "In the past, I just vaguely felt that this world was not simple.

Now, everything can be connected in series.

We are part of a lost once star civilization. "

Kim So-yeon's eyes sparkled: "To verify, we need to go to 6.5 light-years and take a look."

No one objected, but...

Zhou Zhengyi rubbed his brows: "With all the technology in the world now, we can't move at such a distance.

According to calculations, even if we can reach it, it will only be a group of dead people. "

"Save the memory, clone yourself, and download the memory when you arrive at the destination?" Zhou Jingze had a whim.

Fang Yashu sneered: "So, even if your clone has your memory, is it still you?"

Zhou Jingze spread his hands helplessly: "I'm just suggesting, not discussing issues in the field of philosophy."

Kim Jong-sun ignored such jokes: "It's actually very simple.

Assuming that we belong to an interstellar civilization, then at the very beginning, there must have been an interstellar immigrant spacecraft that once reached this planet. "

Guan Muling's false eyes flickered red: "The mayor means that this spaceship may be somewhere in the Old Continent."

Jin Suyan shook her head: "If the spaceship can reach here, then there is also the possibility of flying away."

Kim Jong-sun did not deny it: "However, at least it is worth our while to try. The influence of our civilization is also aimed at the archeology of the Old World."

Yuan Xiao didn't speak.

Nalanxuan stubbed out the cigarette butt, and stared at Yuan Xiao seriously: "So, you recently brought back so many well-trained archaeologists, as well as mecha equipment, to find spaceships from the Old Continent?"

Chapter 631 Not Enough

Yuan Xiao's showdown: "This is a deal between me and Emperor Feile of the Principality, and Lord Shoufu is also involved."

Everyone was even more surprised.

"But they don't know about the interstellar immigration, and the goal is only the archaeology of the old continent," Yuan Xiao continued, "Don't waste the resources to form an archaeological team.

Just in terms of affiliation, these people belonged to the principality's archaeological team.

We still have to pay attention to the development of our own team. "

Na Lanxuan said he knew it well.

"Whether there is an interstellar immigration spaceship in the old continent, let's put it aside for now," Yuan Xiao glanced at everyone, "Even if there is, we still need to solve the energy problem."

Zhou Zhengyi took over the words: "Looking at the speed of light, it is impossible to realize interstellar migration. After all, the distance between celestial bodies and galaxies is too far, and our human life is limited.

Even if we regain control of the cryogenic chamber technology and rely on the blessing of the fountain of life, the limit will be 3000 years at most. "

This point has been confirmed.

"So, on the one hand, cryogenic cabin technology is an indispensable technology for interstellar immigration," Yuan Xiao nodded, "The former civilization can reach here not only by freezing itself."

"Another thing that can be inferred is the space folding technology. Our Lei Chan mecha already has a similar ability," Zhou Zhengyi mused, "It's just that Lei Chan's space jump can't reach interstellar travel. requirements.

During this period of time, our Science and Technology Bureau has been conducting simulations on related issues, and we found that the improved space folding and jumping is theoretically no problem.
