Chapter 907 is indeed a talent~

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

The news that Xinghai Research Institute had discovered fossils of extraterrestrial life for the first time spread throughout the world through the Internet at the speed of light.

Not only ordinary people are discussing it, but also politicians, academics, and even capital from all walks of life have turned their attention to it.

Before today, the existence of other life in the universe beyond the earth has always been just a conjecture. Human beings have tried their best to find definite evidence of extraterrestrial life.

Today, however, this suspicion has been confirmed.

And it is still right above the head of mankind, only 380,000 kilometers away from the earth.

Since life has existed at such a close distance, coupled with the extremely harsh environment on the moon that is not suitable for the evolution and survival of life, how many advanced intelligent life forms like humans should exist in the vast universe?

Although from the press conference, Professor Xu Chuan did not fully confirm that the samples found from the lunar south pole were 100% fossils of ancient microorganisms.

But in the eyes of most people, there is almost no difference between 99.99% and 100%. Especially since this news was personally disclosed by Professor Xu, who has always been extremely academically rigorous and never joked.

It can be said that in the eyes of almost everyone, the discovery of extraterrestrial life has become a certainty.

America.

White House.

Faced with this sudden news, the president, who only took office at the beginning of this year, quickly summoned his staff team and senior officials from relevant departments,

Slapping his hands on the table, he said with a serious face: "I think everyone here has read the relevant intelligence information. I want to know your views on the life fossil samples found at the south pole of the moon."


Everyone in the conference room was silent. Faced with the huge impact of the news, no one knew how to speak.

After a long silence, the president turned his attention to the director of the CIA.

Feeling the gaze of his immediate boss, Travis Hernan, who was also newly appointed, thought for a while and then said: "I have already been collecting relevant information regarding the authenticity of this matter, but the accurate information will be passed back. It will take some time.”

"But thinking from another perspective, Professor Xu Chuan's academic rigor is recognized all over the world. Based on the CIA's understanding of him and the collection of information, it is unlikely that he would be involved in such a major matter. Just kidding.”

"The CIA is currently considering and collecting information on whether the Xinghai Research Institute has discovered anything other than fossil samples on the moon."

"That's what matters."

Hearing this, Mr. T, who was sitting in the first place, frowned and asked, "Are you talking about living lunar life?"

Travis Hernan nodded and said: "This possibility is not ruled out."

After hearing this, General T looked at Bill Nelson of NASA and asked: "What is the possibility of discovering life on the moon?"

After hearing this question, Bill Nelson thought for a moment, shook his head and replied: "If it were a few days ago, I would have said that the possibility is almost zero."

"The exploration of the moon has begun in the last century. We have collected countless samples, but we have never found traces of life. The moon does not have the conditions to evolve life."

"But now, I can no longer say such words."

"As Hernan said, academically, that man never joked. Our focus now should not be whether there was life on the moon, but whether there is life now."

"If there is indeed life at the south pole of the moon, this will have a significant impact on human civilization and even the earth's ecosystem. We must first figure this out."

Hearing this, the first president looked over and said: "Do you have any ideas?"

Nelson thought for a moment and said: "At the end of March, we are about to launch the Artemis 3 spacecraft to the Aitken Basin in the south pole of the moon. Maybe we should modify the launch plan."

"At the very least, we should go and see for ourselves the caves where these fossil samples were found."

Hearing this, Professor Cordell Whitley, a professor of paleontology who specially attended the meeting, frowned and said: "I support this proposal, but do you have the specific location of the cave where these samples were mined?"

"I have collected all the news reports, and China has not disclosed where these sample fossils were mined."

Hearing this, Bill Nelson smiled and said: "It is not difficult to obtain the specific location. I believe we are not the only ones interested in the specific location of this primitive cave."

"It's enough to pull in other allies and ask the Xinghai Research Institute to make it public. The "Moon Agreement" treaty is there, and when it comes to such a major discovery, it is impossible for them to circumvent these rules."

After a slight pause, he continued: "And if China wants the whole world to recognize this result, they cannot rely solely on their own research."

“Only by allowing other countries to participate in joint verification can it be convincing.”

"In addition, we can also put pressure on them through various public opinions."

"For example, microorganisms from the moon may cause irreversible damage to the earth's ecological environment, and may also cause serious crises to human life safety, etc."

"If living life is really discovered on the moon, it is impossible for them to enjoy this achievement alone."

Human beings are not alone in the universe.

The earth is not the only cradle of life.

These shocking news will inevitably agitate the entire society.

But for the entire Internet and public opinion, history has proven that no matter whether this kind of agitation is good or bad, discussions with high emotions will always slide to the level of either black or white like a diode.

Some people believe that the discovery of life fossils on the moon is a good thing for mankind, and will greatly promote the development of aerospace technology. Humanity can finally set its sights on farther space beyond the earth.

Some people think that this is not a good thing. If there is life on the moon so close to the earth, then there will be more advanced intelligent creatures in the vast universe, and rash actions may bring annihilation to mankind. disaster.

There are even many conspiracy theories and speculations are widely popular on the Internet.

Just like an article posted by an 'anonymous' elite on βhu.

"Is the first discovery of extraterrestrial life good or bad for mankind?" 》

【.Whether there is extraterrestrial life in the universe has always been one of the biggest mysteries explored by mankind. 】

[And now, with the development of astronomy and aerospace technology, we have discovered traces of extraterrestrial life on the moon 380,000 kilometers away from the earth for the first time. 】【Perhaps countless people are excited and happy about it. Human beings are not alone in the universe, which will greatly stimulate the development of the aerospace industry and accelerate mankind's march into space. 】

[But in my opinion, this may not be good news. 】

[Why do I say that finding traces of life on the moon may be bad news? 】

[To understand this problem, we need to start from two aspects. 】

[The first one is whether there are other alien civilizations in the universe? 】

[To put it simply, have you ever thought about a question? That is: why we cannot observe any extraterrestrial civilization in the universe now. 】

[As for this issue, there are currently four most mainstream speculations in the scientific community. They are: Human Loneliness Hypothesis, Great Filter Hypothesis, Observation Box Hypothesis, Hunter Hypothesis.】

【.After understanding the above, we can understand what the traces of life on the moon mean. 】

[It seems that no matter which theory you look at, the main impact is the confirmation that carbon-based life, or other types, are not uncommon in the universe. 】

[So, what does this mean? You may wish to think carefully about why we still cannot find other higher intelligent life forms even though life is not rare? 】

【Don’t you think it’s interesting? Do you feel like something is affecting our observations? Has the universe or other advanced civilizations set a certain ‘observation filter’ for us? 】

[If there is something really affecting our observations, or if this filter really exists, then you might as well think about it, is the ‘big filter’ of the universe in front of us or behind us? Do you understand? 】

[If no signs of life are found, it is very likely that we are the first batch of intelligent life. 】

[But if signs of life are found, it is very likely that we are the fools about to hit the south wall. 】

[The second question is, are only microbial fossil samples really found on the moon? 】

[I personally have serious doubts about this. Did the Xinghai Research Institute really only find sample fossils of microorganisms in caves at the south pole of the moon? 】

[If it is just a fossil sample, why are they so sure that it is a trace of life? 】

[You must know that during hundreds of millions of years of geological changes, nature may create any material that may have existed before we discovered it. 】

[The most typical ones are various strange-shaped ores, such as square pyrite and fluorite crystals. Before the discovery, geologists had never thought that nature could create such standard cubic ores. 】

[The same is true for fossil samples on the moon. It may be a naturally formed mineral structure. 】

[If this is the case, how did the Xinghai Research Institute confirm that it is a fossil of life? 】

[After all, we have never seen what extraterrestrial life really looks like. 】

[Of course, this is not the most important thing. 】

[The most important thing is, if there is indeed living extraterrestrial life, will it cause irreversible damage to the earth's ecological environment? And endanger the health of humans or other life on earth? Cause a global disaster? 】

[Perhaps some people will think that I am being alarmist, but it is undeniable and foreseeable that their arrival will definitely have an unpredictable impact on the environment on which we live. 】

After this article was published, it quickly received tens of thousands of likes and was screenshotted and reposted on Bibo and other platforms.

For a time, there were speculations about whether the Xinghai Research Institute had actually discovered living microorganisms and lunar life, and various conspiracy theories were popular on the Internet.

At the Xinghai Research Institute, Xu Chuan was scrolling through the news on his phone and couldn't help but shake his head at the messy rumors.

This is why he did not choose to disclose the samples of life fossils on the lunar surface at the first time.

To be honest, rashly disclosing the existence of extraterrestrial life is actually not a good thing for society as a whole.

Because this means that there may be many hidden dangers in the middle.

Such as selling luck beads blessed by aliens on the street, or selling sachets given to you by Martians in your circle of friends, these are all trivial matters.

It would be great fun if a group of anti-human and anti-social guys, or people with ulterior motives, took the opportunity to announce that the moon rock samples contained a moon virus that could destroy the world.

I believe that many ordinary people will be more willing to believe such rumors.

This is not impossible.

Fortunately, when he first received the news, he took these things into consideration and kept it confidential in a timely manner.

Before holding a press conference to disclose the news, Xinghai Research Institute had already contacted the above, made relevant work arrangements, and tried its best to minimize the impact of this matter.

For example, the publisher of the anonymous article on his mobile phone should have been investigated by now.

If no collusion with foreign forces is found, it doesn't matter.

After all, it is impossible to shut everyone up about this kind of thing, and there is nothing wrong with discussing relevant opinions.

But if it is found that money has been collected from certain people, that would be embarrassing.

Five hundred thousand is appropriate.

But then again, Xu Chuan can guarantee that there is something wrong with this guy.

Because it is difficult for ordinary people to write these things, the rhythm of this article is actually quite subtle.

First, we direct our attention to the various theories proposed by scientists, and finally we quietly talk about the possible impact of lunar life on the earth's environment.

Putting aside all the messy speculations in the first half, the second half is indeed quite good.

A few simple and clear strokes focused attention on the fact that the Xinghai Research Institute may have hidden the discovery of living lunar microorganisms, and even acquiesced that they had discovered living life but did not make it public.

He is indeed a talent.
