Chapter 304 Minefield

Energy level is different from energy.

The total energy of the sun is extremely high, and only about one billionth of the energy it radiates reaches the earth, but with just this little bit of energy, it supports the entire biosphere of the earth, creates wind, rain, thunder and lightning on the earth, creates typhoons, creates rain and snow, creates atmospheric flow, keeps the ocean in liquid form, and so on.

The high energy of the sun can be seen. But in comparison, the unit energy level of the sun is extremely low. Under the same volume, the radiation energy of the sun is not even as good as a potato.

Particle colliders can create extremely high energy levels, even energy levels comparable to tens of thousands of seconds after the Big Bang, and can even unify electromagnetic force and weak force.

But its total energy is extremely low.

The total energy of two particle beams colliding is not even as good as the energy of a human body lifting a bucket of water.

This is the difference between energy level and energy.

What Han Yang needs now is an extremely high energy level. As for the total energy, he doesn't pay much attention to it.

The theoretical research presented to Han Yang at this moment foreshadowed such a possibility.

Through a certain mechanism, with the help of the characteristics of the violent discharge process of lightning, it can be made more condensed and its energy level can be greatly improved, which is expected to reach the level where Han Yang truly opened the unification of the three fundamental forces.

This research paper quickly attracted attention, and Han Yang immediately began to verify it.

First, it was carried out in the laboratory. Scientists created an artificial lightning device, and then created this device that can extremely condense lightning energy, and finally proved its feasibility from a theoretical level.

In this set of experimental devices, the total energy of artificial lightning was wasted by more than 99%, but the energy level of the remaining energy was increased by ten times.

After proving the feasibility, the next thing to do is to improve it. And the improvement will be carried out from two aspects.

One is to increase the total energy of lightning, and the other is to improve the efficiency of the energy level device.

The scientific and technological research and development capabilities and manufacturing capabilities of the second-level peak civilization are perfectly reflected at this moment. Engineers and scientists joined forces, and under the unified leadership of Han Yang, they quickly created a new generation of energy level enhancement devices.

At this time, the total energy of artificial lightning could no longer meet the requirements. So the test site was changed to a natural environment.

The lightning on the earth obviously could not meet the requirements. Its total energy was too low.

So the place for the experiment was changed to Jupiter.

As the planet with the highest mass in the entire solar system, Jupiter has the strongest lightning in the entire solar system.

A huge experimental base was quickly built in the gas of Jupiter. After that, through the lightning induction device, one after another of the strong lightning struck the experimental base, and then through a whole set of complex devices, it was transformed into extremely condensed electric charge, which was guided into the reaction chamber and acted on the ultra-pure zinc sheet.

Under the impact of this energy that was tens of thousands of times thinner than a hair but released dazzling light, this ultra-pure zinc sheet with an area of ​​only about one square millimeter was instantly vaporized and turned into a ball of plasma.

And in this process, countless observation devices equipped on the wall of the reflection chamber captured every subtle change in the process and presented it to the scientists and Han Yang as huge data.

Through these data, Han Yang will be able to restore and figure out any microsecond or even any nanosecond change process in this process.

The results of the study reported two pieces of news, one good and one bad.

The good news is that this model really has the potential to reach the energy level required for the experiment. The bad news is that even if the lightning on Jupiter is the strongest in the entire solar system, it is still too weak to provide the energy required for the experiment.

If people want to rely on this model to study the grand unified theory, they must look for more powerful lightning.

If there is no lightning in the solar system, then they can only look for it outside the solar system.

Fortunately, there are indeed some stars in the universe that have lightning stronger than Jupiter.

Sub-brown dwarf.

As a semi-finished star, it has a mass far exceeding that of an ordinary planet, but it cannot ignite nuclear fusion and cannot become a real star.

This semi-finished star, or super planet, has an extremely low surface temperature, comparable to that of an ordinary planet, and is not as difficult to approach as a real star.

Even with the current technological strength of human civilization, it is impossible to land on the surface of even the smallest star.

But sub-brown dwarfs are certainly not a problem.

Coincidentally, there are such sub-brown dwarfs near the sun. In fact, human civilization sent a scientific expedition fleet to study it long ago.

Ves 0855-0714.

Among all the stars and semi-finished stars in the entire universe, it is the seventh closest to the sun, with a distance of only about 7.43 light years.

A large scientific expedition fleet set out again and embarked on a journey to Ves 0855-0714.

About twenty years later, the fleet arrived. With the assistance of human scientists who had been stationed here and conducted long-term research on this semi-finished star, the members of the scientific expedition team immediately got to work.

This planet has unimaginable winds and thunderstorms. Some extreme weather conditions are even unheard of by people.

Because of these extreme weather conditions, the conditions do not appear in the entire solar system.

For example, the drastic temperature difference from thousands of degrees Celsius to more than 200 degrees below zero in an instant, the sudden change in wind direction, the sudden change in gas density creating an effect like the collapse of the earth, or the impact of ice and snow particles of more than ten kilometers per second, and even hailstones as big as stones.

Even if they have been stationed here for hundreds of years and have a deep understanding of this planet, long-term scientific researchers must be cautious when entering this planet and dare not be careless.

Once careless, life may be buried here, and even the body cannot be found.

With the strength of human body, once exposed, it will be immediately torn into the smallest particles by various extreme weather. With the movement of the atmosphere, it may even spread all over the planet. In this case, it is a joke to say that the body can be found.

In this unimaginably harsh environment, tens of thousands of engineers and scientists began to build the experimental base.

The performance requirements of the materials used in this experimental base are even higher than those of asteroid-class battleships. Even Han Yang is extremely difficult to manufacture.

But here, Han Yang took out millions of tons without hesitation. And he said that he would give as much as he wanted, without setting an upper limit.

In addition to this material, all other experimental requirements were unconditionally supplied at the highest level.

Compared with the key theory of breaking through to the third-level civilization, a little bit of effort is nothing.

Even in recent years, due to large-scale grand unified theory research, the allocation of scientific research funds exceeded military expenditures for the first time, accounting for about 2.6% of the total wealth of civilization.

It would not be enough to invest all the wealth created by the entire pterosaur industry.

This does not count the huge amount of work Han Yang did secretly.

But Han Yang believes that all these efforts are worth it.

Under this circumstance, a huge scientific research base that is more than ten times larger than an asteroid-class battleship has finally taken shape. And today is the time for it to "launch".

It was built on an orbit far away from this planet. At this moment, it will begin to descend and truly enter the thick gas of this planet.

The deceleration process has begun, and under the gravity of the planet, its orbit is slowly lowered.

In a gas environment with a density of only one percent of the Earth's atmosphere, due to the extremely high gas flow rate of this planet, the surface temperature of the scientific research base instantly climbed to more than 2,000 degrees Celsius due to friction.

Under the action of extremely strong electric charge and magnetic field, its surface also burst into crackling flashes, like fireworks.

It is still slowly descending. As the altitude decreases, the gas density is getting higher and higher.

Finally, at a place equivalent to about 162 times the Earth's atmospheric pressure, it stopped and relied on thrusters to stabilize its body.

The outside world is pitch black, without any light, like the deep sea. The ultra-bright searchlight can only illuminate less than 100 meters away.

The outside world is a scene like a dark abyss. Sometimes you can see colorful clouds with strange lights, see pieces of cold rocks and ice of varying sizes disappear in a blink of an eye, and see gases of various colors twisting, merging, and entangled strangely, like an abstract painting.

Even though the stabilization system was at maximum power, it was still trembling slightly.

At the same time, everything in the research base, including the human body, was constantly subjected to 12 times the gravity of the Earth.

A human weighing 80 kg would weigh nearly one ton here.

Even though every scientist and engineer who was allowed to work in this research base had undergone countless genetic modifications and long-term special training, and there were exoskeletons to assist the human body, it was extremely difficult to move here.

Under this situation, people began to fully verify the reliability of this research base and make preliminary preparations for its eventual move to the "minefield".

A certain area of ​​the planet has the most violent and densest lightning. That area is called the minefield.

Three days passed. The first batch of personnel set off on a special aircraft to fly away from the research base, finally getting rid of the nightmare-like overweight experience. Another group of personnel entered the research base and replaced their work.

A group of scientific researchers came and went, and left and came again, always maintaining the normal operation of the scientific research base.

After two months of preparation, the main thruster of the scientific research base was ignited again, and began to push the huge and heavy scientific research base towards the minefield.
