Chapter 767 Life on Europa

Following Xiang Jialiang's order, the video data returned by Detector No. 1 and Detector No. 2 appeared on the virtual screens of Xiang Jialiang's Overlord and the bridge of the Law Enforcement Bureau.

I saw a large dark crack, with little lights flashing from time to time. At the same time, in the night vision optical camera of the detector, some strange creatures were slowly emerging from the holes in the nearby cracked ice.

It can be clearly seen through the camera that the entire bodies of these organisms in the deep ice of Europa are somewhat similar to earthworms on Earth. However, unlike earthworms and other organisms on Earth, the entire body of these organisms is completely transparent.

At the same time, it is very similar to the color of nearby ice. If the human eye does not look carefully, it is impossible to detect the existence of these creatures. Of course, the human eye cannot detect these creatures without looking carefully, but it does not mean that these crystallizations of human civilization and technology cannot be

Discover the existence of these creatures.

For the detector, as long as these creatures appear around the detector, there is nowhere for these creatures to hide. In addition, Xiang Jialiang and others found that although these life forms on Europa are relatively similar to earthworms on Earth

, but there is still a big gap between them and earthworms. The first is the gap in terms of volume and length. Generally speaking, earthworms on the earth are not too big, but these creatures are different. The largest diameter has exceeded ten

centimeters, and its length is more than five meters. However, these creatures are not very flexible, not even as good as earthworms on the earth.

Seeing this, Xiang Jialiang and the others still don’t understand that they have made important discoveries on Europa. As many scientists thought, there is indeed life on Europa, and according to current

According to the detected data, there is a lot of life on Europa. You must know that the detector has not yet reached the bottom of the crack, nor has it entered the liquid water under the ice layer of Europa. It is still impossible to make a specific judgment on the following situation.

, but since there can only be a large amount of life in the ice layer of Europa, then there must be a lot of life in the liquid water below Europa, and there will definitely not be only one kind of life.

"How many other detectors do we have in the sky of Europa, especially the space detectors inside the planet?" Seeing this, Xiang Jialiang immediately said to the controller of the detector,

"Sir, we have nineteen other types of detectors left. Among them, there are three intraplanetary air detectors and five atmospheric detectors. The largest number of surviving space detectors is the space detector.

Eleven," the controller replied.

After listening to the controller's words, Xiang Jialiang immediately ordered him; "Immediately send an intraplanetary flying probe to the interior of the crack to capture some of these Europa life forms. I have a hunch that these life forms will play a vital role in the development of our human civilization."

The impact will be extremely huge.”

"Yes!" After saying that, the controller immediately operated the two intraplanetary detectors to go to the two cracks. Although the current data indicates that the creatures inside the cracks belong to the same kind of life form, this is not the same as the earth.

No one can be sure about life until the specific life characteristics of these living entities are obtained.

At the same time, the two ground detectors continued to descend, and the images returned at the same time showed that the closer to the bottom of this crack on Europa, the more holes there are in the nearby ice, and the diameter of these holes is

It is getting bigger and bigger, and even the diameter of some holes has exceeded the size of twenty centimeters. At the same time, the size of the nearby Europa life forms is also getting larger and larger.

Although the two detectors have penetrated deep into the ice layer of Europa, which is 60 to 70 kilometers away from the ground, the signals of these detectors are very stable at this time, without any attenuation, let alone because of the ice.

The isolation of layers leads to signal instability or interference.

In fact, neither Xiang Jialiang nor anyone else in the spacecraft has any worries at this time. The detectors entering the crack will continue to penetrate deeper into the crack, causing communication problems between the spacecraft and the detectors.

You must know that although the communications currently used by humans sometimes use radios, in general, human civilization rarely uses wireless communications, especially in interstellar communications. After all, radios have too many shortcomings.

, under the complex conditions of space, radio is very prone to accidents.

So now when human civilization is exploring the universe, the communication method used has changed to a method in which neutrino communication is mainly used, quantum communication is supplemented, and photon communication coexists with other communication means.

Of course, under normal circumstances, various exploration fleets will not use methods other than neutrino communication, but now the communication between the Overlord spacecraft and these detectors belongs to neutrino communication, so even in this

Under such circumstances, Xiang Jialiang and the others were not worried at all that their communications would be affected.

But at this time, both the little guy and the other crew members of the Overlord were staring at the virtual screen, looking at the Europa underground data sent back by the detector.

"There are no other types of creatures yet, but according to my judgment, there is definitely more than one kind of creature in the ice of Europa, but we haven't discovered it yet, or there is such a creature as we have discovered now.

Because of the existence of Europa, other creatures in the ice layer of Europa dare not approach, so I judge that these Europa life forms we have discovered so far should be a top predator of Europa. Otherwise, here

There must be more other life forms. After all, a large-scale water vapor eruption just broke out here, and there must be other life forms on Europa." When seeing more and more such life forms, as the captain of the spacecraft,

Xiang Jialiang said to himself somewhat unconsciously.

At this time, the No. 1 detector that entered the crack finally reached the bottom of the crack. Whether it was Xiang Jialiang or others, they all believed that even the floor of the crack was definitely made of ice. After all, the surrounding ice was

The temperature has not yet reached above zero, but when the detector reached the bottom, it did not stop there steadily as they expected. Instead, it sank directly. When it sank to two meters, the detector

The detector began to sink directly. It was obvious that the area around the detector was no longer ice, that is, solid water, but liquid water.

Fortunately, although this detector is said to be a ground detector, various environments have been taken into consideration at the beginning of the design. Therefore, this detector not only has the ability to submerge, but also has a very strong ability to withstand pressure.
