Voyage of the Stars

Of course, this is something to be happy about, because people can learn a lot from this warp engine, and being able to learn something means that humans have really reached the level of understanding the structure of the warp engine. This seems to be understood suddenly, but in fact it is a manifestation of human progress.

It is the emergence of astronomical colliders that allows humans to really stand on tiptoe and look out the window at the warp scene inside, and at the same time, it is the credit of mechanical expertise that allows human engineers to have enough level to understand the various structures and layouts and design ideas of the warp engine.

Nothing is accidental.

From another perspective, human analysis of this warp engine has also laid a very solid foundation for human future navigation technology.

If humans develop their own conceptual engine slowly and develop their own warp engine without any reference, it will undoubtedly take a lot of time to gradually improve. To achieve a higher level of navigation technology, humans need to optimize the warp engine for a long time.

However, with this warp engine as a reference, it is different. Engineers conservatively estimate that after absorbing the process level, structural layout, and design concept of this warp engine, humans can at least save thousands of years of struggle.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as humans master the grand unified theory, they can directly skip the primary stage of the fourth-level civilization in terms of navigation technology. With this engine technology, as long as humans successfully step onto the fourth-level civilization, they will at least run faster than other primary fourth-level civilizations.

These are all foreseeable.

However, at this stage, humans still have to study the warp engine down to earth. Of course, we must continue to do collision experiments, and at the same time, we must continue to explore the grand unified theory down to earth, and study tachyons. All technologies need to go hand in hand.

Finally, time has come to the twelfth year after the dismantling of the warp engine. This year, humans developed the first warp engine based on their understanding of the warp engine and their level of mechanical manufacturing. Well, the first simple warp engine in the laboratory.

Things in the laboratory are not necessarily small. On the contrary, this warp engine is very large, because it is easier to build a larger one than a smaller one. The entire engine can occupy the area of ​​three football fields wherever it is placed. This is already the smallest warp engine that humans can make.

Now, this warp engine is placed in a spacious and dedicated experimental site, surrounded by various detection equipment, various laser ranging and displacement test units. There are also groups of engineers around who are relying on the power of their own clothes, like fish in water, swimming around the warp engine.

"General, the warp experiment is about to begin, and the engineers are now doing the final safety inspection of the engine."

In the command room, an experiment leader pointed to the engineers who were walking around the site with the corresponding equipment in their hands to check the warp engine and introduced the experiment to Yue Yuan.

"This is the driving component, this is the energy transmission device of the fuel combustion chamber of the engine, and this is the core working area of ​​the engine. It is the area that can truly produce the mass potential well effect in space, and it is also the core part of the warp engine. The entire engine body is made of No. 2 alloy material, and compressive strength and high temperature resistance are not a problem."

Yue Yuan did not speak, but listened to the introduction of the experimental physicist named Qi Huo while looking through the window at the huge warp engine.

After listening to the introduction, Yue Yuan's mind gradually appeared the general situation of the experiment, such as the overview, steps, and purpose. Now that the various parameters of the warp engine have been set, we can start the warp experiment after the final test is completed.

Because the grand unified theory has not yet been mastered, humans do not have the ability to mass-produce antimatter, so this time in the warp experiment conducted in the laboratory, humans can only use the existing energy system for energy. There is no way, and for this reason, many scientists are not optimistic about the results of the experiment.

They think that using the energy system of the third-level civilization to drive the creation of the fourth-level civilization may not be able to drive, and the energy level is not high enough to reach the point where the warp engine produces a space distortion effect.

However, many scientists do not believe in evil, and there is no other good way at the moment, so they just try it this way. After all, no one expected that humans would be ahead of the grand unified theory and come up with the experimental version of the warp engine.

At this moment, the final inspection was finally completed.

There were also voices of staff or system broadcasts in the experimental command center.

"The first warp engine experiment of human civilization has officially started!"

"The energy system supply is normal and is being connected to the engine input."

"The warp loading object has been determined. The warp bubble parameters have been adjusted to the target. The three-dimensional space parameters of the warp bubble have been determined. The warp bubble shape function has been loaded."

"Warp engine ignition countdown 10, 9, 8, 7"

Humans still have self-awareness, so the loading target of this first warp engine experiment is not the warp engine itself, but a very thin platinum sheet with a mass of only 0.1 grams. The so-called three-dimensional space parameters of the warp bubble and the shape of the warp bubble in the voice broadcast are all targets of this platinum sheet that is less than the size of a fingernail.

If we only look at the parameters, the warp bubble generated by this warp engine can indeed be set to wrap the entire warp engine, but the energy required to drive an object of such a large mass as the warp engine to move is so huge that it is unimaginable. It is impossible to do it with the energy technology of the current third-level civilization of mankind.

So we can only choose a smaller and lighter platinum sheet.

This platinum sheet used as the experimental object was placed at the interruption point of the huge warp engine. This position is a warp loading area specially set up for the experiment.

The platinum sheet has long been placed here and is positioned by a beam of laser to keep it still.

The experiment is simple after this step. Just start the warp engine and then see if the platinum sheet moves to determine whether the experiment is successful or not.

As the countdown returned to zero, this warp engine in a vacuum environment instantly lit up with a touch of azure light. That was the color of many indicator lights after the machine was officially turned on. Looking from the window of the laboratory command center, it seemed as if I saw a touch of blue technological light.

After the light lasted for ten seconds, it was turned off with a series of alarms of insufficient energy system supply.

Obviously, the engineers realized that the first experiment had failed, but they still took a look at the displacement parameter of the platinum sheet without giving up, and it was indeed zero.
