Chapter 1387: Two Plans
Because of the presence of Huang Chao, the old man Brand couldn’t pretend to be mysterious. He explained the problem of abnormal gravity at the beginning, so Cooper knew that the strange dust phenomenon he encountered was driven by some incomprehensible existence. to here. Cooper felt a sense of responsibility to save the world.
The old man Bland was still emphatically persuading Cooper: "You are our best astronaut, and you were trained for this many years ago. They brought you here." Cooper began to move, but he was unwilling to follow Family separation: "How long will I be gone?"
The old man frowned: "It's hard to be sure, how many years?" Cooper took a deep breath and said, "I still have children, Professor." It's not so much that he is rejecting the old man, it's better to say that he is hesitating, he feels sorry for the child, He promised his late wife to take care of the children, which is the responsibility of the father.
The old man Bland's face remained unchanged, and he said deeply: "Go to space and save them." His solemnity came from the heart, and Cooper understood the meaning of his words. If his children want to live, they must Some people spend their sweat and time in space, and even bury their lives in the dark deep space. This time Cooper was silent, he already felt his principles.
At this time, Huang Chao did not speak. This was a difficult decision for Cooper. It is their own fault that their civilization has come to such a difficult time, but Cooper showed his father's responsibility and responsibility at this moment, but he is still great and respectable. If everyone is a smart person, thinking "I must sacrifice anyway, I will definitely not go", then no one will sacrifice at this critical moment. Such people are the scum of civilization. Faced with choices, they will confidently hide behind others. Looking back on history, they will think they are self-righteous and mock the stupidity of sacrifices made by their predecessors. If civilization is full of such dregs, there will be no power to resist in the face of crisis.
Old Man Brand and Cooper have limited abilities, they cannot wave their hands to save the world, and they cannot even solve the anti-gravity formula without data. But they try their best to continue the civilization and pay their own sacrifices for this. The remaining human beings on the earth should feel grateful that there is still such a great spirit among them. Cooper is just a mortal, but when he decided to step into deep space, his soul got a sublimation.
Human beings are complicated. Even in the future, Cooper will regret and resent, but it will not damage the brilliance of him at this moment. It is precisely because of the accumulation of brilliance from generation to generation that human beings can stand out from countless creatures and create a brilliant civilization. Huang Chao looked at Cooper with an encouraging smile. The old man Brand opposite him, seeing Huang Chao's smile, felt very happy and satisfied for some reason, as if his hard work and dedication had been affirmed by the most authoritative.
Huang Chao coughed: "In that case, count me in." The old man Brand was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied: "Have you decided?"
Huang Chao nodded simply, and said nothing touching. He had no responsibility for these people, so he didn't bother to show any touching attitude. Hesitation flashed in old man Brand's eyes. He originally wanted to ask Cooper to go to his office and use a blackboard to increase Cooper's confidence. Now he dare not take Cooper and Hierro there together.
He turned out to be bullying Cooper and didn't understand,
A layman would only think that the anti-gravity formula is complicated and profound when looking at a blackboard calculation, but knowledgeable people like Huang Chao will try to solve it by themselves when they have an idea. After all, solving it can save mankind, and no one will be polite to old man Brand at this time. Like Mann before, he understood this formula, but he couldn't solve it at all, which led to his complete despair.
Huang Chao listened to the introduction of the scholars of the space agency in the conference room, mainly telling Cooper about the wormhole of Saturn and the space behind the wormhole. Huang Chao didn't want to pour cold water on these people, so he kept a polite smile and nodded from time to time, making the narrator feel Huang Chao's "serious response". In fact, Huang Chao was speechless about this world, and a wormhole appeared at the door of his house, a wormhole that could stably cross space! In fifty years they have conducted one exploration! This kind of achievement, the destruction of civilization is not wronged at all.
The people in the space agency didn't know Huang Chao's slander, and most of them participated in the expedition to save mankind afterwards, excited about it, full of dedication that Huang Chao admired and laughed at. Cooper is also seriously considering this issue now. After a black scholar finished explaining, he asked the old man Brand his doubts: "Professor, if we can find a suitable planet, then how can we save the world on earth?" human beings?"
Everyone smiled at Cooper, and Cooper's question showed his attitude of joining, and now everyone regards him as one of their own. The old man Brand showed a confident smile, and looked at Huang Chao calmly: "We have two plans, plan A and plan B, follow me."
He led Cooper and Huang Chao to the external construction site again, and the old man Brand showed a mysterious smile: "Look at this building, what do you think it looks like?" As a professional astronaut, Cooper's IQ is completely online. He quickly saw the mystery: "The whole building here is a huge centrifugal device?"
The old man Brand nodded with a smile, Huang Chao said: "So you are going to launch the whole building into space as a big space station?" Cooper also realized that this is unreasonable, how could such a heavy object be sent into space ! In the past, when human beings built small space stations, they had to launch and build them continuously so that they could be assembled in space.
"Since the discovery of gravity anomalies, I have had the idea that it is feasible to use gravity for interstellar travel. I put forward a hypothesis, as long as it is perfected, it can be achieved to lift off to a large space station."
Cooper said a little unhappily: "You want us to bet on your possibility at the cost of everything? What kind of hypothesis is that?" Of course Cooper understands that this is the crux of the problem, and the old man Brand is also helpless, as long as When he introduces it here, Cooper and Huang Chao will definitely understand its importance.
Brand said: "When you come back, I will definitely finish it. This is my promise." The old man's face was resolute, and there was a solemnity that he would die for it in the next moment, which stunned Cooper for a while. To the old man's comfort, Huang Chao, whom he was most worried about, did not respond.
"So what's plan B?"
As an expert in biology, Miss Brand took over the duties of introduction. She brought others to the biological laboratory, pressed the button on the refrigerated biological sample cabinet, and with the sound of jetting, a sample bucket containing human fertilized egg samples popped out. Miss Brand laughed: "Plan B, a super population bomb."
The plan is to bring these fertilized eggs to a habitable planet, use biochemical means to reproduce them, and become the continuation of human civilization. Fertilized eggs are diverse, try to maintain the diversity of human beings: this is a compromise method that has to be used because the transportation power is too low to transport a large number of "living people".
