Chapter 889 Chapter 9 It’s Nice to Take Shelter Under a Big Tree
The space carrier is moving slowly in the starry sky and rolling slowly. Chu Fei stands behind the porthole, quietly looking at the huge white dwarf in front of him, which is the sun of the Tenglong galaxy.
Although I have been here for more than a year, I am still shocked every time I see this picture.
In fact, the so-called "slow" movement of the space carrier is also compared with space. In fact, the space carrier and the entire formation are rotating around the star, and because the orbit is very close, the speed is as high as 56 kilometers per second.
The turning speed of the space carrier itself is 8 hours per circle. It can be understood that the time for a day and night is 8 hours.
8 hours is a time that has been strictly demonstrated and strictly tested.
If the distance to the star is too close and the sunshine time is too long, it will cause the cooling system of the spacecraft to operate at high load. At the same time, it will also cause pressure on human psychology.
Such a close sun and such strong light will actually cause a certain psychological oppression. In fact, the strong light has been filtered, otherwise the direct temperature can reach more than 500 degrees.
But if the time is too short, it will affect the work and cause some pressure on the structure of the spacecraft and the life support system. Moreover, if the time is too short, it will also affect work and life.
After comprehensive consideration, the 8-hour flip cycle was finally chosen.
After more than a year, I have gotten used to life, but I am still making rapid progress in work - in other words, there is still a long way to go before success.
The solar exploration project is also running efficiently and has achieved continuous results; these results have also become the knowledge foundation of Chu Fei and provided Chu Fei with wisdom.
Xinghai Development Group attaches great importance to this star. It can be said that it is the first exploration task at present, and it ranks before Gaia Secret Realm. For this exploration, Xinghai Development Group has been preparing for hundreds of years.
There are two reasons for such a large investment.
One is the star aspect, and the other is the technology aspect.
In terms of stars, the white dwarf is an ideal exploration target and an ideal star.
A normal star is a big fireball, which cannot be explored at all, and there is actually not much meaning in exploration.
If you want to explore stars, the most ideal one is actually a black dwarf.
A black dwarf is the final stage of a white dwarf. It has completely cooled down and theoretically has a solid surface and the temperature is not high.
Compared with black dwarfs, there are brown dwarfs.
Brown dwarfs are the smallest stars. They are not the remains of white dwarfs after death, but normal stars.
It is estimated that if the mass of Jupiter increases by 13 times, it may cause nuclear fusion in the core of the planet and generate weak heat. Because the light is dim and almost unobservable, it is named "brown" dwarf.
Brown dwarfs are also normal stars, still alive, and because of their slow reaction, their lifespan is very long, tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of years.
Brown dwarfs also have no solid surface. It is speculated that excellent brown dwarfs will have a warm atmosphere suitable for human habitation. Humans can live on a continent composed of floating balloons, and energy is obtained directly from the center of the earth (the sun).
According to the information Chu Fei recently obtained from the Xinghai Development Group, there are almost no natural brown dwarfs in nature. But there are many artificial ones. This thing is difficult for the former Yanhuang Federation, but it is not impossible to achieve.
Using gravitational strings, gravitational slingshots and other technologies, planets like Jupiter can be moved in the interstellar space, and then multiple planets can collide and merge.
Some star systems have many large gaseous planets, so the Yanhuang Federation made many attempts and many were successful.
However, the evolution of planets is at least calculated in thousands or tens of thousands of years. Until the eve of the collapse of the Yanhuang Federation, those successful "artificial brown dwarfs" had not yet stabilized, and the storm speed on them could reach more than ten kilometers per second, which could tear steel apart.
There are brown dwarfs, but if they are suitable for human survival, they may need to "calm down".
Above brown dwarfs are red dwarfs, whose lifespans are shorter than those of brown dwarfs, but are still at the level of tens of billions of years. Red dwarfs are relatively brighter, but the light is still weak, red and dark red.
The larger ones are yellow dwarfs, such as the sun. The light begins to brighten. Then there are subgiants, which are larger in size and white in light; then there are giants, such as blue giants, which are brighter and blue in light. The brighter the star's light, the shorter its lifespan. Some super blue giants may only have a lifespan of tens of millions of years.
At the end of the yellow dwarf, it will enter the red giant stage and then collapse. Giant stars may explode as supernovae.
Yellow dwarfs like the sun collapse into white dwarfs, and after cooling for tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of years, white dwarfs become black dwarfs.
A yellow dwarf usually has a lifespan of three to five billion years, and the cooling stage of white dwarfs takes another ten billion years. Therefore, no black dwarfs have been found so far. It is said that this universe is relatively young and has no "age spots".
In this case, if you want to find an ideal star, you can only look for white dwarfs.
But white dwarfs that are too small are not good. The pressure is not enough to form solid matter, and they are also not worth exploring.
Only white dwarfs that are large enough and have cooled for a long enough time can produce a small amount of solid matter. This is "hadronic material".
Hadronic material is a "subatomic" composed of quarks, antiquarks, gluons, etc.
Normal atoms are: quarks combine to form protons, then combine electrons to form neutrons, and then combine electrons to form atoms.
For these reasons, the solar exploration project can only explore this white dwarf in the Tenglong galaxy, and it must also explore this white dwarf.
Then there are technical reasons. There are two aspects to technical reasons.
One is the technical limit, and we can only explore here for the time being.
Without the high-dimensional world channel, the scope of human activities in space is very limited. For the time being, we can only explore the 12 star systems of the Tianjiang Cluster, plus a few surrounding star systems, which add up to a diameter of only 20 light years.
Within this range, there is no better star than the Tenglong Galaxy.
There is also technical research-the scientific research technology of the top leaders of the Tianjiang Cluster has reached the peak of conventional materials. If technology wants to develop further, it must work hard on materials.
The secondary generation materials targeted by the top leaders of the Tianjiang Cluster, and even the Yanhuang Federation thousands of years ago, are hadron materials!
Hadron materials are related to whether the technology of the Yanhuang Federation can go further. Unfortunately, until the collapse of the Yanhuang Federation, no key step has been taken in hadron materials.
The conditions for the preparation of hadron materials are harsh, and they can only be found in space at present.
This is the reason and purpose of the solar exploration project.
Chu Fei was fortunate to join this team. It can be said that he accidentally boarded the fast ship of the forefront of science and technology. The benefits to Chu Fei are beyond imagination. The most direct benefit is: a lot of knowledge, a new field of knowledge! Especially in terms of materials.
If you want to explore white dwarfs, materials are a super problem. Ordinary steel will be compressed and collapsed like cotton on white dwarfs. Strong gravity is more terrifying than temperature.
This super material technology has benefited Chu Fei a lot.
And wanting to launch a rocket from the surface of a white dwarf is a breakthrough technology.
Of course, Chu Fei's joining has also brought great help to Xue Xingyu's research.
Concepts such as manifold algorithms and hyperdimensional folding have opened Xue Xingyu's mind.
Since the three-dimensional world cannot prepare hadron materials, high-dimensional technology is used. And there is a high-dimensional civilization world-Gaia Secret Realm.
Of course, Xue Xingyu is not responsible for the strategy of Gaia Secret Realm. Xue Xingyu just passes the relevant information to the back, and naturally there will be professionals in charge.
The core of Xue Xingyu is still the solar exploration project.
Even if we use high-dimensional technology to produce hadron materials in the future, we still need data. The solar exploration project can collect data.
Chu Fei was thinking, quietly watching the slowly "falling" star.
Suddenly, a black spot flashed on the surface of the star.
Xue Xingyu's voice suddenly rang in Chu Fei's ears, "Chu Fei, come to the conference room. The No. 3 space shuttle exploring the white dwarf has returned safely."
"Received."
Chu Fei quickly came to the conference room and then sat down next to Xue Xingyu. The sign in front read:
[Chu Fei
Deputy Chief Engineer of the Solar Exploration Project]
Gold will always shine. In just over a year, Chu Fei's position was promoted from "Deputy Minister of Nanotechnology Department" to Deputy Chief Engineer of Rockets. In terms of scientific research, his status is second only to Xue Xingyu.
In the entire space carrier formation, Chu Fei's status is roughly equal to that of Deputy Captain Yi Xingying. There are only two people above, Captain Mo Wenqiang and Chief Engineer Xue Xingyu.
In theory, the person with the highest status is of course Xue Xingyu; but because Xue Xingyu's "cultivation level" is not as good as Captain Mo Wenqiang, the two are actually on the same level and negotiate with each other when there are problems.
Practitioners are always used to using cultivation to rank seniority.
After Chu Fei arrived, people arrived one after another, and soon there were more than 20 people sitting, all of whom were research elites.
The projection appeared, showing a special aerospace plane. This plane has a large triangular shape, with 12 large and small engines behind it.
There are many "high and low burrs" on the surface of this aerospace plane. If you look closely, you can see that it is divided into three levels.
The aerospace plane is obviously used in the atmosphere, but since it is in the atmosphere, why should there be "burrs"?
Seeing such a special aircraft, everyone is accustomed to it.
Xue Xingyu spoke, "Everyone, the Tanri-3 aircraft has returned smoothly. We succeeded!"
Then the picture changed, and the aerospace plane after returning appeared.
At this time, the burrs on the surface of the aerospace plane have melted for the most part, and only the lowest layer has not melted. The surface of the aircraft is no longer smooth, but has many spots, like cooled welding slag.
But the overall structure of the aircraft is intact, and the surface is perfectly streamlined.
Everyone applauded, and then everyone looked at Chu Fei.
The current space plane is the latest technology of the solar exploration project, and most of the key technologies come from Chu Fei.
If you want to explore in a star, the most important thing is to "keep warm", ensure low temperature, and ensure the good operation of the machine.
And the surface temperature of this white dwarf is over 10,000, and any conventional material will melt in minutes after it goes down.
Although the solar exploration project successfully landed and retrieved some materials before. But the cost was so heavy that this activity was only carried out once.
That success was done like this: drop a special spacecraft from high altitude and launch a super rocket before the spacecraft melts.
The dropped spacecraft has a mass of more than 100,000 tons; the mass of the launched rocket is 1,200 tons; in the end, only a small rocket reached near space, and then threw out 15 kilograms of material in the form of a cannonball.
At this time, the material was far from reaching the first cosmic speed on the star, and it was picked up by an unmanned aircraft passing by.
In short, the result is: 100,000 tons of high-precision equipment were exchanged for 15 kilograms of material!
The cost and expense are beyond imagination.
It’s not that everyone doesn’t want to log in again, but the technology is immature, so they can only pile up materials, and piling up materials costs money. According to the previous burning method, the entire space carrier formation will be burned up, and at most they can get one ton of materials.
One ton, what can you do. If you want to do research, the previous amount is enough.
In short, the exploration situation is: helpless.
Until Chu Fei came, he brought a brand new "super-dimensional algorithm". Combine nanotechnology and programming technology to create a "magic weapon of technology".
The "burrs" on the aircraft are actually array flags, which support layers of defense and isolate high temperatures.
The entire star is a super life energy source, and the array technology can use this energy.
At the same time, there is also space capsule technology inside the aircraft, which stores a large amount of water as a coolant.
This technology has been iterated more than a dozen times in the laboratory and actually tested twice. This is the third test, and it has achieved great success.
Everyone sat in the conference room waiting. Some staff had recovered the aircraft and then reported the situation: 12.7 tons of hadron materials were "caught" and the aircraft was in good condition.
"12.7 tons of hadron materials!" Everyone jumped up excitedly. Now not only is there enough research, but we can also try to use hadron materials to build equipment.
The previous 15 kilograms of materials were enough for research, but in fact they were very stingy.
Now it's all right.
The most important thing is that everyone seems to have seen a steady stream of hadron materials!
Xue Xingyu couldn't help but get up excitedly and patted Chu Fei's shoulder hard.
12.7 tons of hadron materials are actually not much, with a volume of only about 56,000 cubic centimeters. It is equivalent to the volume of a steel plate that is 10 cm thick, 56 cm wide, and 100 cm long.
It's really small.
Of course, the hadron materials actually caught are all irregular fragments, which look more like pebbles, and are as bumpy as honeycombs.
Chu Fei picked up a fist-sized "pebble", which weighed more than 200 kilograms and was silvery white. After weighing it, Chu Fei suddenly frowned, and then a piece of silvery white metal the size of a basketball appeared in his hand.
This is a twisted piece of metal, like slag that has been cooled after melting, with many sword marks on it; the deepest sword mark almost split the metal block.
The thing Chu Fei took out was what Jin Kaiwei gave him. (Chapter 838)
According to Jin Kaiwei, it was obtained during an expedition. It is hard but tough enough; the density is also very high, the size of a basketball is about one ton. Chu Fei tested it and found that the density is about 70 grams per cubic centimeter, far exceeding the metal with the highest density: osmium, 22.59 grams!
Now it seems that this thing is very much like hadron material. But it is far inferior to the hadron materials at present.
The density of these hadron materials is as high as 227 grams per cubic centimeter!
Chu Fei's actions attracted Xue Xingyu's attention. Chu Fei took out his flying sword and cut some, briefly explained the history, and then changed some hadron materials.
Chu Fei now has his own high-tech research laboratory, which can scan to the 50 picometer level, which is 0.05 nanometers.
The diameter of an atom is generally at the 0.1 nanometer level.
With this precision, atoms can be clearly seen, but the nucleus cannot be clearly seen. It is obviously not enough to study hadronic materials. But it is more than enough to study nanotechnology.
In fact, this is already the top equipment in the current fleet. Xue Xingyu's laboratory has a little more powerful than this, but it is limited.
After many researchers divided up 12.7 tons of hadronic materials, everyone finally began to pay attention to the aerospace plane itself.
The hooks used to fish out hadronic materials were all melted, which was expected. But before the melting, enough data was collected.
As for the aerospace plane itself, more data was brought back. Everyone continued to discuss and deduce new technologies by studying the status of the aerospace plane.
Among them, Chu Fei was undoubtedly the focus of everyone.
Xue Xingyu and Chu Fei took the lead in inspecting the aerospace plane. The two exchanged a few words from time to time, and then called on different personnel and different equipment for analysis.
The aerospace plane is more than 40 meters long. The two took the lead in a careful inspection for almost a month, and finally the entire plane was disassembled and analyzed.
During the disassembly, they continued to study. There was a large computer array next to them, with hundreds of supercomputers constantly calculating.
The architecture of this supercomputer is a hybrid architecture, the fifth-generation hybrid architecture computer led by Chu Fei.
The research of the fifth-generation hybrid architecture computer was successful, and Xue Xingyu participated in it, and the technology of quantum computers was added, which can be regarded as the crystallization of everyone's wisdom.
A month later, when the aerospace fighter was disassembled, the fourth-generation aerospace fighter in the virtual space had completed millions of iterative calculations.
Of course, scientific research is not a simple iteration, and scientific researchers are needed to escort and adjust parameters from time to time.
But no matter what, the fourth-generation aerospace plane has been successfully studied by 99%. The rest needs to be manufactured and then actually tested.
The success of the fourth-generation aerospace plane is inseparable from the assistance of computers. Compared with the fourth-generation computer, the fifth-generation computer can simulate more than 99% of reality. Because the fifth generation has added quantum technology, it has achieved rapid progress. Chu Fei said that it should be called the sixth generation more appropriately. The fifth generation is about the same as the ticket.
But it doesn't matter, as long as the technology is in hand.
During the production of the fourth-generation aerospace fighter, Chu Fei had returned to his research laboratory and handed the materials to his subordinates for research. Chu Fei then entered the virtual space and began to practice.
In the virtual space, the 14.0 to 16.0 skills are being iterated crazily. Using the fifth-generation supercomputer and a large amount of scientific research data, the skills have been iterating crazily for a year, with hundreds of billions of iterations.
Now Chu Fei inputs the data he just studied on the aerospace plane into the computer and continues to iterate.
Today's skills can no longer see any traces of orthodox big data practice. This is no longer a matter of great difference, but it is not the same thing at all.
The main reason for the change is that Chu Fei proposed the concept of "exclusive weapons".
With exclusive weapons, the skills must be changed synchronously; Chu Fei tried to integrate the algorithm that controls nano changes directly into the core of the universe brain.
This approach seems a bit risky, but Chu Fei has already found the way and has basically succeeded.
After an unknown period of time, someone rang the bell and woke Chu Fei up.
Chu Fei archived the data, and then took a look at the "universe brain" that was iterating itself in the virtual space, and felt like a "Nascent Soul". In other words, the skills that Chu Fei is iterating now have a three-point charm of cultivation.
The entire "universe brain" becomes the brain; and the sub-brain constructs the body. The cosmic brain and the sub-brain together constitute a "Nascent Soul". Perhaps it is more appropriate to call it a "Primordial Spirit".
In the future, the sub-brain will no longer be the responsibility of the liver, and every cell in the body will participate in the work of the sub-brain.
Coming out of the virtual space, the researchers around him told Chu Fei that the hadron material and the material Chu Fei took out had completed the basic structural analysis.
This is the result of a joint study by multiple laboratories. Chu Fei quickly read the information, and then participated in the research for a period of time. After making some contributions, he went back to the virtual space to iterate. For Chu Fei, cultivation is the foundation.
Some of the research data in the hadron material brought great inspiration to Chu Fei.
Time sometimes passes quickly. When Chu Fei exited the virtual space again, it was two months later.
The brand new "Metaverse Skills" has been iterated!
Waking up from the virtual space, Chu Fei muttered: "It is true that it is good to lean on a big tree for shade. With the foundation of Xinghai Development Group, it took only one and a half years to preliminarily complete the 14.0 to 16.0 exercises.
If I stay on the ground, on the Morning Star, I am afraid that I may not see any results in ten years. Ten years is too long, and there are too many variables.
So, job hopping is the secret to promotion and salary increase."
Chu Fei was in a good mood. Although the current exercises can only be regarded as the primary version, not even the "1.0 version", it is finally available.
Big data practice is in line with scientific logic - don't be afraid of terrible technology, just be afraid of no technology. No matter how bad the technology is, as long as there is a beginning, it can be continuously iterated to a perfect state.
In a good mood, Chu Fei finally remembered his position as deputy chief engineer and officially participated in related research.
In the research, Chu Fei also gained a lot, in addition to knowledge, there are also wisdom dew.
Currently, Chu Fei is involved in the following research: the sixth generation of hybrid architecture computers, new computer technology will officially enter the field of quantum computers, rather than borrowing some quantum technology;
There is also Chu Fei's main business, the research on nano-liquid gold technology, and the research on formations and laws (manifold technology) derived from it, etc. The research on nanotechnology also involves the concept of "folding";
Finally, there is also research on pharmaceuticals, and research on aerospace planes in the solar exploration project.
Now there is one more thing, the research on hadron materials.
The huge space fleet slowly rotates around the star, and Chu Fei has already devoted himself to the new work. (End of this chapter)
