Minke's black technology

Chapter 438 Traveling at the Speed ​​of Light

Of course, we can’t dig any further. The tens of thousands of meters below the surface of Mars are full of red crystalline magma. They are solid substances gushing out from the interior of the planet, and they contain a lot of iron.

According to the latest research by experts, Mars is actually a huge rock, and its mantle was solidified as early as the destruction of the Martian civilization.

Therefore it does not have a continental crust like Blue Star.

The expert professor of Bald Eagle Cornell University believes that "the formation of planetary continents takes a long time, and the process is extremely complex and changeable, which also involves the process of plate tectonics, but we have not seen in the crust of Mars caused by plate tectonics or Signs of real continental crust!"

The researchers of Meow Space used the continental crust theory to simulate how magma forms volcanic rocks, and then used an advanced thermodynamic software to deduce the data of the formation of the Martian crust.

Finally, the experts realized a simple fact, "The cataclysm on Mars not only destroyed the Martian civilization, but also completely solidified the interior of Mars!"

The solid hedrons they encountered while digging were the crystals that formed when the magma cooled, and these crystals formed the Martian crust, a strong molecular crystal that can be found on many planets, but never like Mars. so ubiquitous.

"After all, the scale of the volcanic eruption was very large, it was almost a planet-level phenomenon!" The expert analyzed.

That is to say, even if the excavation engineering team changes locations, I am afraid that they will eventually encounter this layer of planetary crust, which is like a "granite-like" cover-up continental crust, which seals the star core inside like a peach core shell.

All in all, it is impossible to continue digging deeper!
First of all, the progress of the project is very slow, and as it gets deeper and more difficult, the daily progress is likely to be calculated in centimeters.

Secondly, the excavation work consumes a lot of drill bits. Even if the rabbit is not short of money, it is impossible to throw manpower and material resources into the bottomless pit like this.

So the excavation plan was suspended, and then the plan of bombarding the earth's crust returned to the discussion. Everyone wanted to study how to reduce the destructive power of the plan on the planet.

"According to our research, this lava crystal is easily penetrated after being hit by a huge impact..." the expert analyzed.

That is to say, it is more than strong but not tough enough, which makes the Martian crust easy to be pierced by shells, but this is not the purpose of people bombarding Mars. Meow Xing Space wants to make its inner mantle turn again.

After research, it was found that as long as space-based weapons are used to accelerate a huge metal cannonball in outer space and let it hit the past like an asteroid, it will definitely be able to enter the deep interior of the planet.

When this super magnetic field metal cannonball approaches the core of Mars, it will definitely melt due to high pressure and high temperature, and eventually become part of the planet's mantle.

Because they have their own super magnetic field, they will affect the magnetic field of Mars, and it is very likely that the bipolar magnetic field will be reactivated, causing the mantle to slowly rotate.

As long as the mantle is turned, the planet's magnetic field will be generated. It may be very weak at first, but as time goes by, it will gradually recover and become stronger until it returns to the historical level!
"This recovery process may be very slow, but we can continue to fire shells to accelerate until it can maintain the planet's atmosphere..."

The expert's point of view is very simple. As long as the method of bombarding Mars is proved to be effective, then two shots if one shot fails, will definitely achieve the goal of reshaping Mars.

The question now is how much vibration Mars will produce under this kind of bombardment. If, as Li Maoye said, it has little impact on the human city of Mars, then it can start now.

After going around and around, the Mars remodeling project returned to the original plan, but these things were not big events for Li Maoye.

What he is now considering is the superluminal technology issue. After so many years of technology accumulation, the CVI system finally shows the corresponding technology node, which means that this technology can enter the research and development stage.

FTL technology often appears in science fiction works, most of which are of those types, such as the most common curvature folding space, hyperspace and subspace navigation technology, and even wormhole navigation methods and so on.

In the early science fiction works, most of them accelerated the speed beyond the speed of light. Even though this technology has violated the basic laws of physics, it is generally accepted and understood by people.

Li Maoye also found that he has many choices, among which the safest and most reliable is the curvature folding space, which is the so-called curvature engine technology, which is the same black technology as the anti-gravity engine.

"But the cost of developing this technology is too high, and there is no condition to verify the technology..." Li Maoye muttered. He originally wanted to develop it in the scientific research island of "Xi Soil World", but suddenly found that there was no bottom layer of the law of the universe. Data, it is difficult to simulate a real curvature engine.

This kind of thing doesn't have to be close, it must be done carefully, otherwise, no matter how perfect the technology is researched in the virtual world, it will not be effective in the real world.

"It doesn't matter if it doesn't take effect, I'm afraid it will have an experimental accident!"

So Li Maoye decided to leave the problem to a special person to deal with it. He called Zhou Lin and Xie Linger, and then solemnly announced: "Notify the relevant departments that I have a new idea for the technology of super-light travel, and I need to do some research. Technical practice!"

After saying these words, the faces of the two people in front of them immediately changed, and then Zhou Lin signaled Xie Linger to leave here, and quickly find someone who can handle this matter.

Xie Linger quickly trotted out, she knew that what happened next must be a high-level secret, not something she could know.

Even Zhou Lin didn't dare to know that he might have a corresponding level of confidentiality authority, but in order to avoid the trouble of subsequent review, he still smiled wryly and asked the bald man to stop talking for the time being, and continue to talk when the leaders of the relevant departments come. .

"Academician Li, please come to the imperial capital!" The leader of the relevant department responded.

This is an inevitable thing. This is a more advanced space navigation technology than the anti-gravity engine technology. Whoever masters this technology can jump out of the solar system and go to other galaxies. If the Bald Eagle and other countries know it, it will definitely cause serious problems. The problem.

So Li Maoye went to the imperial capital, and both Zhou Lin and Xie Linger were inspected and monitored, and the researchers of the Meow Star Laboratory were once again closely monitored.

This secret trip didn't alarm anyone. Even the people in the laboratory didn't know that they were being monitored, and they carried out research work as usual.

Li Maoye was sent to a small building in the garden. According to what he saw and heard, the location of this small building was very hidden, but when viewed from the outside, it was similar to other veteran cadres in the imperial capital, and the guards guarding the door were quite ordinary. The appearance of it, only when you enter it, you will find something different.

When Li Maoye entered the meeting room in the small building, he found that other people had been waiting for a long time. It seemed that everyone had just rushed from home. Who told this matter to be so important that it could not be delayed even for a moment!

The level of personnel participating in the meeting was very high. In addition to the two elders No. [-] and No. [-], there were also several academicians of the Academy of Sciences and military leaders, as well as several bystanders who were responsible for recording the meeting. Among them was a serious soldier .

The atmosphere of the whole meeting was still very serious, and Li Maoye also put away the idea of ​​joking. Everyone present had already known the situation in advance, so he stated his request straight to the point.

"I already have a general idea about the FTL technology, but I have to test it in space first. If there are no problems, it will be practical in a few years!"

After these words were spoken, everyone was silent for a while.

Then the leader of the Academy of Sciences asked: "Academician Li, can you briefly introduce the principle?"

"I don't know the specific principle, but it should be similar to the anti-gravity engine. Have you guys found any clues after studying it for so long?" Li Maoye asked back.

Several academicians shook their heads, the current anti-gravity engine is still a black box for humans!

For the bald guy pretending to be stupid, everyone didn't mean to expose it, they could only show wry smiles, but they were quickly attracted by the holographic video in front of them.

This is the design plan brought by Li Maoye. In front of everyone's eyes is a huge track with a big iron ring attached to one end of the track. The whole shape looks a bit weird.

But if you take a closer look, there are leaf-shaped devices at intervals on the orbit. It seems that they can rotate 180 degrees. The status becomes off.

"This is the curvature acceleration engine. When full of energy, these leaf-shaped engines will sparkle, and the spaceship will be accelerated by the way of curvature folding space. When the engine releases energy, it will return to its normal state!"

"The accelerated spaceship will be thrown into the folding space through a circle, and will appear at another receiving end of the orbital accelerator, thus completing the faster-than-light voyage. From this aspect, it looks like an artificial wormhole, but in fact this wormhole It's not hard to keep up for a long time, but it's pretty fast and saves energy!"

"According to my estimation, it will have a limit distance of [-] light years. After this distance, the design plan will have to be changed, but with the current level of Blue Star technology, it seems difficult to do it!"

What Li Maoye said was that this kind of curvature engine accelerator is equivalent to a teleportation point, and it is still a teleportation point with a limit distance, but it is still enough for human beings at present.

One of the academicians of the Academy of Sciences asked: "Academician Li, does this kind of curvature folding transmission take time?"

This is a very professional question. In the eyes of ordinary people, wormholes or curvature teleportation will naturally not take much time.

But in fact, no matter what kind of space navigation method takes time, it's just a difference.

"Taking the limit distance of [-] light years as an example, it only takes about three hours to reach the receiving end at the other end!" Li Maoye's answer made people extremely moved.

This is much faster than the imaginary super-light travel. Just imagine, it only takes one hour for every ten light-years to travel, and human footprints will soon spread all over the entire galaxy!

Of course, judging from the 10 light-year diameter of the Milky Way, it would take decades to travel across the past, but for the era when human lifespan has been greatly enhanced, this time is nothing.

"If it reaches a place 30 light-years away, is there any way to do it?" asked the military boss.

Li Maoye nodded and said, "Of course it is possible, as long as the repeater function is developed!"

The academicians present all showed expressions of enlightenment, but others still didn't quite understand, so Li Maoye continued to explain:

"If you want to teleport beyond the limit distance, you have to build a teleportation point every 30 light-years, and then use the teleportation point in the middle as a repeater, then you can continuously jump and teleport until you reach the coordinates of the receiving end !"

"Basically, the effect is similar to that of electronic communication technology. It will not affect the use of the transmission point in the middle, but just use it as a springboard!"

"With this curvature folding space transmission technology, we can transmit the spaceship to the designated coordinate position at regular schedules in the way of freighters or passenger ships. This navigation method is sufficient to meet the needs of modern human society!"

Li Maoye casually mentioned a few words about the application of technology, and the people present immediately imagined the relevant scenes. All the contacts between galaxies are sailed through this kind of teleportation point, which strengthens the control ability of security checks and makes super-light travel become a reality. Extremely controllable.

In addition, the production and operating costs of spacecraft will be reduced, and there will be more space for transportation and living. They themselves do not need to install complex curvature engines, just ordinary anti-gravity engines.

Navigation within the galaxy can naturally be achieved through the anti-gravity engine, but if you want to travel across the galaxy, you must reach the teleportation point, and you can go to other galaxies after obtaining the teleportation permission.

"However, we still have a problem to solve, and that is the placement of teleportation points in other galaxies. We must have a spaceship similar to a paving machine, so that it has the ability to bend and jump, but this ability is a bit uncontrollable look!"

According to Li Maoye's description, this kind of paving spaceship specially placed for the teleportation point will be controlled by AI, and then teleported according to the approximate coordinate direction, there may be a certain distance deviation, and it may even teleport to the interior of the star.

When a distance deviation occurs, you have to rely on AI to correct it yourself, and then spend an uncertain amount of time flying to the designated location, and place the curvature folding teleportation point according to the coordinate setting.
