Chapter 479 Pseudo Dimension (1/2)
Chapter 479 Pseudo Dimension
"There should be no other possibility except space."
Yan Xia and Haru both felt so.
Otherwise, the whereabouts of the mass cannot be explained. It should be given to a nothingness, or it should be transported away.
The technical requirements for both are quite high, especially when it comes to blinding the outside world.
The former wants to create space, which is simply a fantasy.
And if the latter wants to transmit, the only way it can't be detected is a black hole.
"Maybe there are other possibilities, but we just don't have the corresponding technology."
“There’s more room for possibility now.”
Because this substance has shrunk, it means that the thing it produces needs to be maintained.
This is possible in both space and black holes.
But the mass of the black hole is very large, and it is impossible to say that the mass disappears instantly at the beginning.
And the main thing is light.
If light enters a black hole, it will obviously be swallowed instead of penetrated.
Two blocks the possibility of a black hole.
Creating space is actually just a term, it should really be about creating dimensions.
The civilization in the four-dimensional space hopes to create a four-dimensional space in the three-dimensional space. As long as this is done, the possibility of traveling through the dimensional passage will be greatly increased.
Of course this is all speculation.
Yan Xia suddenly thought of the distortion on the surface of matter that he had seen before.
"If that's the distortion of space, then we should be able to investigate something in that brief distortion."
Haru understood what Yan Xia meant.
It lets people get more equipment, and at the same time, it lets people start the spacecraft and leave here.
After all, there are not too many equipments on the spacecraft. Arriving at the destination earlier allows for more in-depth research.
However, time waits for no one now.
At this time, they were less than 2 light years away from their original star system.
"Wait, two light years..."
"See if the expansion speed of that thing is accelerating."
If space is indeed expanding, then the speed may easily exceed the speed of light.
This is dangerous.
The speed of the spacecraft they are sitting on is only 100,000 kilometers per second, and it will soon be overtaken by the matter behind it.
After investigation, it was found that the speed of the thing was indeed increasing slowly.
Its initial speed should not have been that fast, otherwise by the time they got the news, the thing would have expanded to a radius of 1.6 light years.
In fact it is wrong.
Yan Xia only noticed this now because there was too much information before and after.
"What to do now?"
Haru was very anxious after getting the news.
Because this is their territory.
If they continue to expand like this, everything about them will be swallowed up.
Yan Xia is very calm.
"Civilization in the four-dimensional space should have used other things to promote the expansion of the entire space."
"After all, you and I have observed that the expansion of space consumes a lot of energy. It is impossible for a level 3 civilization to have such a huge amount of energy."
"I guess they gathered multiple stars together and then used the stars to provide energy to make this thing expand."
"That is, when they run out of stars, space as a whole will stop expanding."
"While I have no way of guessing exactly how big it will expand, reaching the Camelin star system should be impossible."
28 light years, plus the original 3 light years.
That thing would need to expand to a radius of over 31 light years.
The energy required for this is too huge.
Even if it does exist, it will never happen here.
Because this is the outer region of the Milky Way, the density of stars is not that high at all.
It is almost impossible to gather a large number of stars to provide energy.
Of course, everything cannot be so absolute.
But the radius of 31 light years is still too large, almost 124,788 cubic light years.
But now it has only expanded by more than 3 light-years, which is actually not bad, only about 140 cubic light-years.
The two are worlds apart.
For now, it's big enough.
So Yan Xia expected that this thing would stop expanding soon and then enter the contraction stage.
"If that's the case, then our suspicion is true."
Although it could be determined from a macro perspective, Yan Xia still began to inspect the material inside the spacecraft.
He constantly delivers new matter for it to swallow, and observes the spatial distortion on the surface.
At the moment when space is distorted, it shines into the photon and observes the state of the photon.
This kind of experiment needs to be very precise and takes a long time.
Yan Xia only made the initial attempt, and then relied on Haru.
After all, Haru is a genuine physicist, while Yan Xia is just a dabbler.
After about 17 years of continuous efforts.
Haru finally found some clues.
"That's what we want."
Haru took out the research records, which contained some troublesome characters.
Not only are the characters unique to flying civilization, but even if they are translated into numbers and words that the Federation understands, Yan Xia is still confused.
All these data are formulas.
Physicists are not good at this. They like to use these formulas to express one thing.
Although this is indeed accurate, the threshold is too high.
It took Yan Xia a long time to finally understand 1%, or less than 1%.
Fortunately, Haru was there and started to explain the results of the research.
"According to observation, the surface changes after the unknown creature absorbed other substances are indeed the distortion of space."
"This kind of space distortion is different from the space distortion we usually know. It is forcibly added with a dimension."
"Logically speaking, we should not observe the spatial changes from three dimensions to four dimensions. This is not in line with common sense. There is a very clear boundary between the two dimensions."
"If we can observe it, then we should also be able to observe the four-dimensional world when we look at the starry sky at this moment."
"Obviously, we don't."
"And three dimensions cannot give birth to the real four dimensions."
"This is a false four-dimensional."
"It does not exist in the fourth dimension space. It just adds a dimension that does not exist."
"I call this dimension a pseudo-dimension, or a mathematical dimension."
"In fact, it is a virtual dimension like time. This virtual dimension does not exist, but it can affect the space itself."
Yan Xia was confused.
If it were a layman, he would definitely feel that he understood something from these words.
But as a half-baked person, Yan Xia would think about what the false four-dimensional is, which is completely incomprehensible.
Are there any virtual dimensions that can affect space itself?
Haru also knew that his description was too abstract.
So he began to use analogies.
"The method of creating this pseudo-dimension is very simple, which is to create spatial chaos and let the space offset itself."
"In the continuous spatial offset, the space will be dislocated."
"You can understand it as a piece of paper being torn into pieces, and then two pieces of the fragments overlap."
"The gap between the overlapping parts is the pseudo-dimension."
"It is a non-existent space, but it can be imagined as four-dimensional."
"If the dimensional channel connects to this pseudo-dimension, then the cosmic membrane will disappear."
"What will happen in this case?"
This analogy is very detailed.
Yan Xia instantly answered what might happen.
"The four-dimensional space can enter this created pseudo-dimensional space in large quantities, that is, to the three-dimensional space."
Haru said pessimistically.
"That's right."
"This is a transitional space, and its purpose is to eliminate the barrier of the cosmic membrane."
"The waves are just the beginning, and there are fleets behind."
This is indeed an amazing idea.
There is no isolation of dimensions in the pseudo-dimension.
With the help of buffering, you can move freely between dimensions.
"It still feels unrealistic." Yan Xia asked.
In fact, this idea still sounds a bit unreasonable.
Even if the three-dimensional space is superimposed, it is still a three-dimensional space, not 3.1 or 3.9.
"There is no space where the broken spaces overlap, but they allow dimensional channels to intersperse them, thus connecting the two broken spaces above and below. The three-dimensional space is forcibly increased by one dimension. This is the best explanation at present."
"And the space distortion we observed is the chaos when the outer three-dimensional space and the inner three-dimensional space are connected."
"The moment this pseudo-dimension is created means the birth of a micro wormhole, which distorts these spaces."
This statement is much more appropriate.
But this method cannot be without disadvantages.
"Has the cosmic membrane really been pierced?"
This is Yan Xia's doubt.
If the cosmic membrane is really so fragile, then the dimension should have been traversed countless times by those 2.9-level civilizations.
Haru paused his flapping wings, surprised by Yan Xia's keenness.
"The cosmic membrane is indeed torn apart in this state, but tearing apart does not mean complete destruction."
"And the cosmic membrane will repair itself like space. The civilization of four-dimensional space must maintain this fragmentation, and this fragmentation is also chaotic."
"It is like a net. It may increase the probability of passing through, but generally speaking, it will still be blocked when passing through it."
"Perhaps the civilization of four-dimensional space has other abilities, we don't know."
"And the most important point is that the wormhole connecting space and space also consumes energy, that is, its collapse may be faster than we think."
It consumes a lot of energy, but it will not be a stable space that can be maintained for a long time.
Yan Xia understands this problem from the perspective of a politician.
"The four-dimensional space obviously can't wait."
"Otherwise, this method wouldn't be used."
"Even if some warships were really sent over, would they get more than they put in?"
"At least not this time."
"They are eager to take over the three-dimensional space, probably because of the pressure from higher-dimensional civilizations."
"We actually had a guess before, that is, the higher the dimension, the easier it is for civilizations to understand space."
"According to this inference, the civilization of the highest dimensional space may have begun to annex downwards."
Yan Xia thinks this is a more likely situation.
The higher the dimension, the shorter the time it takes to enter the dimensional war period.
Haru reorganized the data on the flying civilization's views on dimensions, and some pioneers also made such speculations.
"Maybe this is really possible, but it may also be our speculation."
"I will send this information to the king, and the king will give more judgments."
The core of the flying civilization is the king.
The existence of the king is supreme.
Yan Xia has seen the king, and it is indeed supreme. It is not difficult to see from its existence that its positioning is actually similar to Ella.
It is the intelligent center of everything.
Unlike Ella, the king is indeed a living organism, and it has changed itself into that.
And Ella has been AI, artificial intelligence from the beginning.
If Yan Xia did not exist, in fact, according to Ella's idea, it is likely to form a social structure similar to that of flying civilization.
Because Ella controls too much power.
And Ella will never let go of these powers.
After the establishment of the Federation, Ella is likely not to expand the star field, which will weaken its control.
Yan Xia tends to expand. He does not want the plate and the cake to always maintain the same growth, but to make the cake bigger first, and then slowly expand the plate.
This is somewhat unstable.
But high risk means high return, which is why the Federation can grow rapidly to its current scale.
If there is no Olive Branch Civilization, at the growth rate of the old Federation, it may be stronger than the current Federation during this period of time, and it will be on par with the flying civilization.
The transition from the old federation to the new federation took too long.
During the old federation period, the pressure from the Olive Branch Civilization was too great, which led to a big change in the decision-making of the civilization.
"Well, it's best for it to decide this matter."
"Our current research can only stop here."
After spending so much time to get this information, they have actually thoroughly studied the purpose of this substance.
More detailed working principles and internal structures require longer time to explore, and better scientific and technological instruments are also needed.
The most violent means is to use gravity to directly tear open this "balloon", so that the structure inside can be quickly known.
But unfortunately, these substances are very tightly embedded, and the gravity provided by the energy on the spacecraft cannot accomplish such a thing.
In the final analysis, they are still too limited.
This is also the reason why Yan Xia insisted on making the battleship bigger.
A large battleship has more energy, and more energy can do more things without having to wait a long time to reach a destination with abundant energy to do it.
This is too inefficient.
As a small civilization, the flying civilization has not actually encountered a similar dilemma.
Their original star field is within 1 million cubic light years, and the farthest distance is only 100 light years. According to the speed, it can be completed in 1,000 years.
This is still the farthest.
According to Yan Xia's judgment, in fact, their main living area should be only 50 light years in diameter, or even smaller.
And the Federation is too big.
The area of the old Federation was very large, and the span of the three major star fields was also very large.
This is even more so in the new Federation.
It takes tens of thousands of light years to travel a distance of thousands of light years. Tens of thousands of years, how long has the Civilization Federation been established?
In short, they can only continue to make more judgments based on the existing research.
Just like this, they will spend the remaining 200 years of sailing.
