Chapter 329 2600 Times the Speed of Light!
The latest observation results tell Xiao Yu that the operating state of this star is not stable.
Generally speaking, in star systems with planets, the trajectory of the main star is unstable. For example, the sun's rotation axis is not a straight line passing through the center of mass of the star, but has some deviations.
To make a simple analogy, take a piece of paper, cut out a circle, and then use a pen to penetrate the paper. Of course, don’t go through the center of the circle, but choose a place that deviates from the center of the circle, and then use the tip of the pen as the axis. Start spinning.
The rotation state of the stars is like this rotating circular piece of paper.
The reason for this phenomenon is actually very simple, that is, the gravitational disturbance from the planet makes this system tend to develop into a binary star system, making the rotation axis of the main star deviate from the center of mass. In fact, Earth-era humans have discovered hundreds of exoplanets by measuring this gravitational perturbation.
But there is a question that puzzles Xiao Yu very much. Because, within 20 billion kilometers around this star as the center of the sphere, Xiao Yu did not find any stars with considerable mass.
That is, there are no objects that could bias the star's rotation.
Xiao Yu quickly notified the result to the participating scientists. This phenomenon immediately caused scientists to discuss it.
"First of all, it can be determined that this peculiar phenomenon is not caused by black holes. Although black holes cannot be directly observed, their traces can be easily found through the phenomenon of gravitational lensing." Xiao Yu said, "Our few Hundreds of thousands of detectors have searched this star system, but have not found any shadows of massive stars. So... what's going on here?"
Xiao Yu couldn't figure it out. This star, like a maverick lunatic, always exhibits some inexplicable characteristics. Without the gravitational disturbance of the rest of the star, why does it appear that the rotation axis is shifted? In other words, since its rotation axis has shifted, it means that it must have been affected by other stars, but where is that star? Why can't I see or feel it?
Xiao Yu has a faint intuition that this phenomenon is likely to be related to the strongest defensive weapon called "New World" mentioned in the last words of the Tolor civilization.
Xiao Yu couldn't help but began to think about the meaning of the simple word "new world".
"Is the star's rotation axis shifted because of its own stellar activity?" A scientist stood up and expressed his opinion with some uncertainty.
"No, it's impossible." Xiao Yu denied: "There are at least 3,000 detectors gathered around that star at this moment, and its every move is under my control. It may have such a significant impact. Well, let me calculate it through gravitational disturbance... The calculation results show that at a distance of four billion kilometers from it, there is a star with a mass about 0.3 times the sun that is pulling it. Wait...wait! The star's spin axis shift is gone! It's back to normal!"
At this time, the detector reported another news that shocked Xiao Yu.
"How could this be? How could a star with a mass of 0.3 times the mass of the sun disappear in an instant? This, this is not logical." Looking at the results of his observations, Xiao Yu was inexplicably surprised.
The rotation of a star is due to the principle of conservation of angular momentum, and if there is no external force disturbance, its rotation axis must pass through the center of mass. This star is showing such a state at this moment. A while ago, its rotation axis was still a little off, but now, it recovered in a very short time.
The scientists looked at each other in blank dismay,
This happened, and it proved that the scientist's explanation that the rotation axis was shifted due to the star's own activity was not correct. Maybe the stellar activity may really cause the rotation axis of the star to shift, then, will the stellar activity not correct the rotation axis again?
This is neither logical nor scientific.
"Look, look, the phenomenon of rotation axis offset has appeared again!" Xiao Yu, who received the report again, was even more surprised, and immediately reported the news.
"No, it's not right!" Luka 4 said, "Master, have you noticed that the rotation axis offset that it experienced this time is not the same as the rotation axis offset that occurred last time. According to this deviation Based on the calculation of the mobility, there is probably a star with a mass of 0.5 times the sun at this moment, pulling it at a distance of 12 billion kilometers!"
"What the hell is going on!" Xiao Yu at this moment was very depressed. Because Xiao Yu discovered that the scientific and technological strength and knowledge reserves that he was proud of, were completely clueless when faced with such a thing.
"This star system is really weird. It is basically certain that the so-called new world and the remains of the Tolor civilization are hidden somewhere here, but we can neither see it nor feel it. Haunted like a ghost."
"The interval between the two occurrences of the rotation axis deviation is about ten seconds. According to our calculation results, one is an orbit with a distance of 4 billion kilometers, and the other is an orbit with a distance of 12 billion kilometers. The distance between the two orbits is eight billion kilometers. Eight billion kilometers! Ten seconds! One second is 800 million kilometers, this, this is more than 2,600 times the speed of light! How is this possible!" In the conference room, There was an exclamation.
This exclamation attracted the attention of all the scientists in the meeting room, and then, after some simple calculations, they also came to this conclusion. The atmosphere in the conference room was instantly tense.
"I don't know if you still remember the Taihao civilization from the Large Magellanic Cloud." Xiao Yu's tone was a bit bitter, "It took the initiative to find the sweeper civilization decisive battle, and then found that its strength was not as strong as the sweeper civilization. As a result, it A distress signal was sent, and the distress signal was received by the Guardian civilization, and the Guardian civilization then issued a cosmic summoning order, calling on all civilizations in the Milky Way that are capable of participating in the war to go to encircle and suppress the Sweeper.”
"I remember very clearly." Luca III took over the conversation and said slowly: "At that time, we, the Lucca race, were the only race following you, Master. The content of the Galactic Summoning Order of Guardian Civilization, I still remember it. It probably means that all civilizations with the ability to sail at a speed greater than 100 times the speed of light can go to the battle site by themselves, and those who cannot reach it can go to the gathering point of the guardian civilization, and the guardian civilization is responsible for transporting them forward go."
"This information means a very clear and practical problem." The next words were spoken by Luca No. 4, "From this information, we can know that even for the old powerful sixth-level civilization, the guardian For civilization, one hundred times the speed of light is also a big hurdle. In the same way, the speed of the guardian civilization will never exceed one hundred times the speed of light. But... the speed of this thing has reached 2,600 Multiple times the speed of light, what does that mean?"
"Speed means scientific and technological strength to a certain extent. I know this." Luca II said, "It is certain that even the Sweeper civilization is far from reaching this speed. In fact, in our speculation Zhiming can reach a speed of 150 times the speed of light, which is enough to shock people, more than 2,600 times? Well, this is only possible if it reaches the level of a seventh-level civilization. But... If the If the Lore civilization is really a seventh-level civilization, how can it be so embarrassed under the pursuit of the sweeper civilization? Even if it can't beat it, if it runs, who can catch it?"
Two thousand six hundred times the speed of light is a terrifying speed, which is a height that Xiao Yu dare not even look up to. According to Xiao Yu's inference, only the seventh-level civilization has the ability to sail the river system. The most important limitation is the speed problem. Even if calculated based on the speed limit of the Sweeper civilization, which is 150 times the speed of light, it will take more than 15,000 years to go from the Milky Way to the Andromeda Galaxy. This time may not be very long, but the most fatal thing is not getting any supplies during the long journey.
The supply problem cannot be solved by carrying enough supplies. Xiao Yu had been confused before, how could supply be a problem? With the technological strength of the Sweeper civilization, Xiao Yu believes that they are fully capable of carrying a star on a journey. So, isn't one star enough for them to consume?
But with the development of science and technology, after thoroughly understanding the principle of curvature navigation and the rate of energy consumption, Xiao Yu knew he was wrong. The reason is very simple, the supply also has mass, the greater the mass, the more energy will be consumed to launch the curvature voyage, how much energy will be consumed for a star to launch a curvature voyage 150 times the speed of light?
Even if all the mass of this star is converted into energy, it will not be able to support it to sail from the Milky Way to the Andromeda galaxy in the way of curvature.
Then, there seems to be only one way to sail the river system, and that is conventional navigation. In a state of sub-light speed, it took up to three million years to cross from the Milky Way to the Andromeda Galaxy. This method can really achieve river system-level voyages, but the consumption along the way is also a problem. Whether it can be reached or not, there is no guarantee whether it will be a living creature or a corpse after arriving.
And what if the speed can reach 2,600 times the speed of light? This means that it takes less than nine hundred years to reach the Andromeda galaxy from the Milky Way. Nine hundred years, fleeting, really not very long.
But, but, how could the Tolor civilization have such a powerful strength?
