In the dark space, a regular giant bullet-shaped object is advancing rapidly! Under the dim light of the universe, a gray-blue head and a hundred-meter-long gray tail flashed out... Yes, this is the space probe launched in the 26th year of the Imperial Calendar! Clairvoyance number!
This lonely traveler, who left Venus and the embrace of the solar system at 0.712 times the speed of light, has been traveling alone in space for about 21 Venusian years! Moreover, according to the itinerary, at this moment it will finally begin to enter the gravitational range of the star T in the constellation Cetus! After about 150,000 hours and a distance of 12 light years, we finally reached our destination! And the deviation does not exceed 100,000 kilometers! This deviation is entirely caused by the uneven space in the universe. After all, the universe is also moving. However, the deviation of 100,000 kilometers in the universe is the same as the deviation of a few centimeters on the ground, and is completely within the self-adjusting range of the detector.
After approaching the predetermined time, the switch automatically unlocked; then as the light increased, the sensitive photosensitive instrument captured the weak light and faint gravitational field, and the automated program started instantly...
There was a creaking sound inside the detector, and then changes began to occur inside. A small physical battery comes to work, instantly activating the entire detector. Under program control, the nuclear reactor began to start. In just half an hour, the detector, which had been dormant for 150,000 hours, was completely "awakened." The physical battery instantly exploded with extreme energy output, and the huge solar sail slowly unfolded! 200 meters in diameter! But not only, but now it is not the powerful light pressure of the solar system, it is just ordinary light, and it is very weak! so. The solar sail continued to expand miraculously, and the already extremely weak solar sail suddenly expanded in a circle. The diameter reaches 370 meters! It actually uses superposition technology!
With the activation of the nuclear reactor and the unfolding of the solar sail, the physical battery has consumed most of its energy. After all, it is only a physical battery the size of a fist. It is already very good to have so much energy. Subsequently, the physical battery is in a semi-sleep state to cope with sudden changes.
At this moment, the nuclear reactor has begun to work, and the powerful residual heat is ejected through particle motion to slow down; at the same time, 10 degrees of electricity per hour begins to operate the detector. Cameras, small analytical instruments, etc. began to work; signals began to be emitted towards the solar system...
Planet T in the constellation Cetus, a planet observed in this solar system that has been basically confirmed to have life, and its position in the universe, compared with the conditions of stars, is almost completely similar to the earth! And now, the Clairvoyance space probe carries the expectations of the people of the solar system. Spanning more than 12 light years and a distance of 113.5 trillion kilometers, we arrived here! Find the next place for humans to live! At this moment, humans are indeed building a spaceship that can span 12 light-years!
……………………
The desolate land is filled with blood and rivers; broken armored vehicles, twisted artillery, and fallen aircraft wreckage! There has been no rain in the Kru Empire for two years, and its national strength has declined sharply; it has been defeated steadily by the bone armor men coming from the north. In two years, the empire's land retreated 200 kilometers, and its land area shrank by one-tenth; the empire's situation was extremely critical...
However, Emperor Crewe was not too anxious. This situation has occurred many times in history. In the empire's more than 7,000 years of inheritance, such situations are not uncommon. Almost every five years, there will be a dry season; but I don’t know why, this year there has been a continuous drought. It was difficult to adapt to the habits formed over a long period of time; they were beaten back by the bone armor men in the north.
But the empire was in a fragile state after all. The food supply is still very abundant every year; but it always takes a while to assemble the food and grass. However, the Bone Armor Men cut off the food routes in the north of the empire very fiercely, making the food gathering more difficult. But even so, Emperor Crewe is still not worried, because ordinary people may never know that while they are fighting hard, the heads of major empires are holding another global discussion through video!
The content of the discussion is: the electromagnetic waves that arrived at the stars more than 10 years ago - electromagnetic waves from our neighbors 12 light years away! It feels good to know that you are not alone in space and have a neighbor; however, this neighbor really does not let people relax, and an electromagnetic wave makes all the people in Tianxing nervous!
It all started more than 300 years ago... Tianxing is the name given to the planet under the feet by Emperor Kru the Great and others. The name was only determined 500 years ago; it revolves around the sun every 168 days - that is, one year 168 days. 7,000 years ago, the Kru Empire first discovered that the black substance flowing under the ground could burn; but that was all, but from then on, the Kru Empire relied on this thing to establish its 7,000-year hegemony!
But three thousand years ago, the bone-armored people in the cold north discovered that yellow substances in volcanoes mixed with black oil and plant ash can cause mild explosive burns. From then on, the bone-armored people began to yearn for and invade the warm, moist and fertile land in the south. The war between the two sides has lasted for 3,000 years! But there is nothing anyone can do.
And war promoted the development of technology. With the continuous improvement of technology, civilization began to improve. However, not every planet is like the earth, with so many top scientists. For example, on this star, after 3,000 years, there has been no essential progress in technology. But the height has not been raised, and the impact has spread over a wide area - the entire continent and other continents have begun to continuously improve weapons for killing people.
However, more than 500 years ago, things changed. The top star people of the Green-Brown Continent compared the explosion with the lightning in the sky, and finally discovered such strange things as electromagnetic waves. Then they got out of hand. In just two hundred years, everyone Communication via electromagnetic waves is already possible. At this time, everyone finally discovered that the earth under their feet was actually spherical, and the entire planet decided to name the mother planet under their feet Tianxing - meaning a high planet, to show respect.
From then on, communication on the planet began to flourish, and science and technology sprouted and other developments exploded.
However, the good times did not last long. 300 years ago, when everyone was ready to enjoy the fun of exploration, all the electromagnetic wave receiving stations in Tianxing received strange electromagnetic waves, and they were global. Such a strange phenomenon aroused everyone's strong interest. Then, it took thirty years for this crack to occur!
Thirty years later, the deciphered electromagnetic waves shocked everyone on the planet! Greetings from another civilization! Although it was a mess and there were several languages, everyone knew nothing about astronomy at this time; soon everyone was aiming at the star system 12 light years away! But after discussion, the leaders of the last few races felt that the civilization of that planet should be much more advanced than our own, and we should not take the initiative to contact them, but should remain silent; we should even be careful not to emit electromagnetic waves in that direction.
However, what was translated from electromagnetic waves still allowed the residents of Tianxing to see another civilization and another perspective; since then, Tianxing's technological development has reached a new level. But as mentioned before, not all civilizations have as many scientists as the Earth. In fact, many people on the Earth suspect that the people on the Earth are too smart and have far surpassed the Evolutionary rationality!
However, even if there are not many top talents, the residents of Tianxing are not pure fools. Everyone began to develop technology - and then the war between technology and ancient technology began. Progress in the war, war in the progress! This has been the strategy all these years!
This has made great progress in technology! As technology advances, everyone suddenly realizes, holy shit—our neighbor’s technology is definitely very powerful. What if they invade? There is no good way, I can only strengthen it myself! As a result, everyone who saw the benefits of war began to consciously control the war and at the same time improved weapons during the war.
This situation led to the birth of the airplane a hundred years ago, and everyone finally felt that they were awesome! So the whole world ushered in a rare peace! Since no one can do anything to anyone, and everyone has tasted the benefits of technological development, they have begun to build their own technological empires, striving to give their race a chance to unify the world!
However, more than 10 years ago, the dream was shattered!
Here we come! Here we come! ! ! !
An electromagnetic wave is sent to the entire universe! Of course, the constellation Cetus has not been forgotten here either!
At this moment, all the well-developed races on the star gathered together again. With the previous experience, everyone deciphered all languages in just one month! The difference from 300 years ago is that the electromagnetic waves translated this time are all in the square font, which is the most profound font. In the past, how to pronounce this kind of text was a problem, and no one knew it. You can make a guess through context comparison. And now, this time the electromagnetic waves not only have text, but also video!
The most important thing is that this small change means that my neighbor should be unified! And it is completely unified! Compared with before, the electromagnetic waves this time are more delicate and carry more information! Especially there are tens of thousands of words and pronunciations on the front and back, as well as a long video to play! Finally, for the first time, the rustic aliens saw the appearance of earthlings! Although it is said that people should not be judged by their appearance, it is inevitable in any civilization that the first thing to look at when looking at a person is his appearance! You can't really let others see your heart!
As soon as the appearance of the earth was revealed, the aliens were dumbfounded: These life forms are so advanced! Especially electromagnetic waves carry so much information! Also, because everyone can read the text on these blocks, everyone begins to decipher them, and the last scientist is responsible for the interpretation. The impassioned words and indomitable determination frightened these aliens!
When everyone puts it together, the war cannot stop, and that civilization is obviously about to enter the interstellar expansion stage. We should catch up here! So the war on the mainland, which had been peaceful for hundreds of years, reignited!
Under the guidance of Earth's technology, the residents of Tianxing have also learned how to communicate via video, and now they are discussing in a video conference on a wired phone!
