Voyage of the Stars

Chapter 71 Nanotechnology
"Perhaps, after discovering the strangeness of this planet, he should have turned around and left." Yue Yuan glanced at Man Yuemei standing on the right with his peripheral vision and thought to himself.

After the silver mist wiped away everything at the human landing site, Yue Yuan noticed that even Man Yuemei, who had a face that had been frozen for thousands of years, changed his expression.

This was the first time Yue Yuan saw her like this.

"Chief, where is the satellite?" Yu Nanfeng asked.

"Stay here and continue to observe the Ross 154-4 planet. We don't know whether that silver mist has the ability to fly out of the planet. It's always good to keep some eyes here to watch. If... I hope there is no if." Yue Yuan leaned on his seat The chair looked at the dome of the command center.

Yue Yuan was inclined to believe that the 'Silver Mist' did not have the ability to fly into the universe, otherwise they would not have been on the planet all the time. If they really had the ability to come out, then humans would really be in danger.

At this moment, a staff member sitting in front of the control center suddenly shouted: "Look, they are moving again."

This voice almost scared the people in the center to death.

Everyone quickly stared at the big screen with wide eyes, fearing that these things would rush into space.

At this time, the big screen had been switched into several separate screens. On the separate screens, people saw that the silver mist that had been lying on the metal mountain slowly floated up again, and then merged into a large ball again somewhere.

Immediately afterwards, the fog seemed to drift away in a certain direction like locusts.

Seeing this, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it didn't come up, otherwise humans would really not know what to do.

"Look, they stopped."

The screen was enlarged and enlarged, and everyone saw that the silver mist dyed red by the star's light turned a corner in mid-air, and fell to the ground like a swarm of locusts landing, scattering into a red, quietly It sticks to the ground and doesn't move.

This appearance, from the satellite image, looks like a piece of seaweed shining with dark red light. AI quickly calculated that the area they covered on the ground was 20 square kilometers.

"We haven't discovered such a large area before." Someone muttered, as if complaining that no one was detecting it.

"No, they weren't here originally." A staff member said, bringing up the original satellite image for comparison and showing it to everyone.

Sure enough, except for the ground where the silver mist is now, the two pictures are the same.

In other words, the silver mist was not here originally, but came out of nowhere after humans landed.

At this time, Yu Nanfeng, who had been watching for a while, expressed his opinion again. He did something on the console and then turned the rotating seat: "It should have come out of a certain cave, but that cave happened not to be covered by our satellite. In their current state, I think they are absorbing the energy of the sun and stars."

"Is it possible that they are some kind of organisms that are performing photosynthesis now?" a voice asked. "This possibility cannot be ruled out, but judging from the data we have obtained before and after, this possibility is very small. They are most likely created by an alien civilization, which is the mining tool I mentioned before."

Yu Nanfeng shook his head and continued: "If I guessed correctly, they should have been dormant in a certain cave before. It was our landing that alerted them. It may be our mechanical and electrical signals, electromagnetic waves, or it may be A life signal for us humans.”

"Sign of life?"

"Yes, life signals, such as brain waves, may sound ridiculous, but we cannot judge the creations of cosmic civilizations based on our technological level. If we cannot detect them, it does not mean that other cosmic civilizations cannot detect them either."

Seeing everyone nodding, Yu Nanfeng seemed to accept his statement, so he continued: "If the guess that Silver Mist is a miner is correct, then they must have a certain program. It is not difficult to see from its behavior that this The program must be a program for collecting minerals and separating minerals.

Looking at it this way, their makers have indeed left here long ago as we judged before. We don't know why they didn't come back after leaving. Maybe that civilization forgot, maybe for that civilization, the silver mist is just a piece of cake. A mining tool that can be discarded at any time, of course, does not rule out the possibility that the civilization will encounter some kind of change."

"In other words, the mining tool 'Silver Mist' is now most likely just following the programs programmed by their creators. They may regard our transport ships and all alloys as minerals."

"You mean, we were crushed by the mining tool of an advanced civilization? And we don't know what this mining tool is yet?" A scientific researcher said in disbelief.

"Yes!" Yu Nanfeng said with unwillingness and helplessness in his tone: "They are not even weapons, but just a mining tool."

Just a mining tool leaves humans helpless, and they don't even have the courage to launch unmanned ground probes again.

Yu Nanfeng stood up and paced around and continued to analyze: "But it means that I don't know what they are at all. From the data we observed and the various characteristics of the 'Silver Mist' and their functions, I think those The so-called 'Silver Mist' should be a kind of nanorobot."

"Nano robots?" everyone exclaimed.

The name nanorobots is not unfamiliar to humans. As early as the 21st century, cutting-edge medical fields have begun research in this area and have developed them.

Nanorobots with extremely small body were made to imitate the shape of E. coli, and then injected into specific parts through a 2 mm catheter.Afterwards, scientists use the externally generated magnetic field to guide the microrobot so that it can move to the diseased site in the human body and complete the test work.

The nanorobot moves in the same way as E. coli, using a spiral 'flagella' to drive itself.

There is still much research in this field.

比如2022年就有研发了一种由由G0-C14、PLGA和脂质PEG组成的脂质纳米颗粒，并用对CXCR4在肝癌细胞中高表达具有特异性的靶向肽CTCE-9908进行修饰，从而实现对肝癌细胞的特异性靶向。

Using this new lipid nanoparticle-based delivery vehicle to specifically deliver p53 mRNA to liver cancer cells, and combining it with anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibodies, it can effectively induce global reprogramming of the tumor microenvironment (TME), thereby achieving better Good anti-tumor effect.

In addition, scientists have also developed micro-swimmers or micro-robots for precise drug delivery in the body, as well as research on artificially manufactured protein nanocages, chiral gold nanoparticles to enhance immune responses, and more.
