Chapter 259 Life and Bombs in the Stellar Void
After the spacecraft arrives in the star system, Yan Xia's Kunlun is about to leave.
However, before leaving the radius of the star system, a piece of news came back from inside the star system.
Heavy elements are missing in the star system, and the battleship host finds holes inside the star through mass calculations.
This news instantly pulled Yan Xia's genes back more than 40,000 years. The hole in Nanmen 2 and the hole in SC-8 on the Cosmic Silk Road were the third time Yan Xia heard the news about the star hole.
It had not been discovered in the past, and Yan Xia had almost forgotten the existence of stellar voids. Now it has been discovered again, proving that this civilization did not create stellar voids simply to collect energy.
"If it is for energy, you don't need to place one at such a long distance. You also need to find some dwarf stars."
"Ella, let's analyze their distance relationship."
There seems to be no explanation for the location of the three stellar cavities, but Ella has a guess.
It simulates the entire galaxy and then studies their revolutions, turning back time.
It was finally determined that the positions of these three stars millions of years ago were relatively in the same straight line. Based on this calculation, a diagonal line was drawn to connect some stars in the simulated Milky Way. Ella asked Yan Xia for instructions: "This A star, I want to send a spacecraft to see if there is a hole."
This is a blue dwarf, and Ella rules out red dwarfs in the line.
"no problem."
Yan Xia also wants to see it.
If this is the case, then a secondary civilization left these holes in the starry sky millions of years ago, and they may even have made them casually.
Is that so?
At least that's what Yan Xia thinks at this stage, because he can't see what other functions those devices have, they are just simple energy storage devices.
"It's better to stop sending the spacecraft and take a look."
Yan Xia re-launched the spacecraft. The spacecraft in the star system now do not have the ability to enter the interior of the star. After all, they are all biological warships. The disadvantages of biological tissues have become apparent and they cannot withstand ultra-high temperatures.
The biological battleship itself can withstand temperatures below 2000 degrees Celsius, but not above 2000 degrees Celsius. The biological battleship will directly become a meat steak battleship. This is the limit of federal biology. It is simply difficult to make living bodies resist temperatures of tens of thousands of degrees. arrive.
As an expert in biology, Yan Xia knew that the Federal Biology Society was now producing some high-temperature-resistant mice, and every 1 degree Celsius increase was a big improvement.
Unlike general materials science, the progress of biomaterials can be described as difficult.
A few years later, the new spacecraft arrived at the surface of the star and plunged into it, quickly determining the location of the hole.
After waiting for several months, Yan Xia received information from the spacecraft again. At this time, the spacecraft had flown away from the star and sent back some photos and videos. Yan Xia was extremely surprised when she saw the photos.
Because the star void this time is different, there is actually a star city inside.
This star has just been named fs-17 by Yan Xia, with a diameter of 1.48 million kilometers, and the diameter of the hole inside is 2973 kilometers. There is a star city with a diameter of 178 kilometers in the entire hole, with mountains, water, and even living things inside. It is like a A small world.
These creatures are very low-level. They are definitely not latecomers, but were put in along with the creation of the cavity.
"Could it be that that civilization is trying to allow life to live inside stars?"
Yan Xia didn't know that this was effective. The effort far outweighed the reward, but that civilization was indeed doing this.
Star City's sky dome actually has some protection against light and ions, allowing Star City to maintain a livable ecological temperature even if it is inside a star.
The environment inside is like a rain forest, but there is a kind of mushroom tree everywhere. The branches look like fungi, and the leaves are like leaves, but wider and thicker, even a little translucent, like jelly.
These mushroom trees grow very densely, crisscrossing each other to steal the sunlight from the sky.
The creatures look a bit weird. Some creatures are like tadpoles, but they twist their bodies like snakes on land. There are some tentacles on their foreheads. These tentacles are very short. The ends of the tentacles are eyes. They look like It makes people lose their sanity.
There are other types of creatures, but they are all similar, some like amphibians.
"It could also be a biological experiment site."
"After all, it doesn't look like intelligent life has lived here."
Yan Xia planned to let the spacecraft go in and study the interior carefully. For this, he could wait for decades. What a civilization left behind inside so many stars should not be so simple.
To create such holes in these stars would require a lot of resources for today's Federation. If it was meaningless, it would be really unjustifiable.
…
Decades of research are fleeting.
Sure enough, Ella researched something and came up with it.
It was previously thought that stellar cavities were devices used for energy storage, but after decades of repeated observations, Ella finally determined that these things might be bombs rather than energy storage devices.
In fact, it is more reasonable to think of it as a bomb. As an energy storage device, heavy elements alone do not have much energy.
Moreover, the way heavy elements produce energy is nuclear fission, which is much less energy efficient than nuclear fusion of light elements. Advanced civilizations do not need these heavy elements as energy sources at all.
Other uses are not necessary, because how many heavy elements can a yellow dwarf have? It would be more convenient to go directly to the Orion Nebula or some supergiants that are about to die.
But...
If it is a bomb, what will the civilization that made it want to blow up?
The explosion of these heavy elements inside the star will definitely destroy the star. What benefits does this star destruction bring to that civilization?
Unknown!
But what is certain is that this civilization is definitely one of the top civilizations in the Milky Way.
The other party may be planning.
And Yan Xia destroyed a node before, and I don’t know if he will be hated by that civilization.
"Stay away from this kind of empty star first."
Yan Xia still decided not to set this place as a transit station, nor to continue to explore the lives in the void. Now the matter of the Olive Branch civilization has not been resolved, and he tries not to provoke new powerful civilizations as much as possible.
The fleet started again and completely evacuated the star system. During this 8,000-year voyage, the Olive Branch civilization seemed to have fallen into a state of stagnation. The appearance of asteroids made /Star City and the Federation not move. This blink of an eye is also a few thousand years, which makes people confused.
There are many civilizations in the universe, and their methods are hard to guess.
This is indeed a big forest, and we need to be cautious at every step.
After arriving at Rigel 7, Yan Xia's grand plan began to be implemented...
