Chapter 551: Is this music?
The scenery I see now is so familiar and unfamiliar.
With white clouds, blue oceans, vast land, and rich atmosphere, the planet in front of you is simply an enlarged version of the earth.
The surface of the planet is still dominated by oceans, divided into 5 oceans with a total area of 1.24 billion square kilometers, accounting for 60% of the surface of the entire planet; and the continent has 11 pieces, of which the southern hemisphere has a supercontinent with an area of 581 million square kilometers, and the entire surface area of the earth is only 510 million square kilometers. The remaining 10 relatively small continents account for a total of 239 million square kilometers.
The supercontinent on the planet that is larger than the entire surface area of the earth is very strange, because the largest desert on this planet is on this continent, and it accounts for 87% of the continental area, and only the coastal areas of the continent can see green.
This is because the planet's Tropic of Cancer passes through the central part of the continent, most of which are located in the subtropical high-pressure zone, with sinking airflow as the main stream. The mountains block the wet and warm air flow from the ocean to the deeper into the continent. The climate of this supercontinent is quite similar to that of the Australian continent on Earth.
Everyone stood beside the porthole and kept talking, with a shocked look and a ecstatic voice, like a shining pearl in the universe, like a blue earth, people fell in love with it at first sight, and even couldn't help but want to take it for themselves.
No one noticed that Li Chuan had arrived at the central console and quantum data was being updated continuously.
"Weak electromagnetic signal was detected"
The synthetic electronic sound of artificial intelligence came into Li Chuan's ears, and the latter immediately said: "Analyze it and see if it contains signals such as audio and video."
"The data is being processed, please wait"
At this time, Chu Siyuan also returned to the central platform. He looked at Li Chuan who was standing on the other side and found that the latter did not say a word and stared at the console indifferently. This made Chu Siyuan puzzled and asked, "Boss, you seem to be very unhappy? Everyone is excited now, for the incredible discovery in front of you."
Li Chuan turned his head slightly and glanced at him, "Reason?"
"Uh..." Chu Siyuan was stunned for a moment, scratched his head and smiled dryly, not knowing how to respond.
Li Chuan withdrew his gaze and stared at the projected image and took a deep breath. After a moment, the electronic synthesized sound rang again:
"Commander, I have reorganized the signal."
Chu Siyuan, who was on the side, looked at Li Chuan again, then set his sights on the projection information, and the echoes like snowflakes were filled with words but stopped.
After the signal was sorted, there was an intermittent blurred sound. At this moment, Chu Siyuan and Li Chuan were speechless, but the bridge was noisy now, and Li Chuan immediately roared: "Everything is quiet..."
After the boss said this, everyone suddenly became quiet after being stunned for a moment. Several members couldn't help but walk towards the central platform. For a moment, only one sound was left on the bridge, which was the vague and intermittent audio signal.
After a long time, Cock came, supporting one side of the quadrilateral center platform with both hands, tilted his head and closed his eyes and listened. After a while, everyone saw him gently raising his hand and dancing with his right hand. Cock opened his eyes and found that everyone was staring at him, but he did not stop his movements, and he still fiddled with his arms for the rhythm with the vague and intermittent audio signals.
Suddenly, Cock snapped his fingers, looked around everyone, and said unwaveringly: "I swear, this is music! It is definitely music!"
music?
Everyone was shocked, and Cock kept thinking, and after a while his eyes lit up, "Melancholy blues, played by Louis Armstrong and his band... Oh, my God, how is this possible?"
Suddenly, the crew of the entire bridge was in an uproar. At this moment, something suddenly appeared in Sara Sieg's mind and blurted out: "Golden Records!!!"
Li Chuan suddenly looked up at her, and Sara Sieg said with a look of surprise: "Do you remember the unmanned solar system space detector of the Voyager 1 launched on September 5, 1977? Voyager 1 carries a copper disk record, 12-inch, gold-plated surface, and a diamond phonograph needle. It is the famous golden record, which contains 55 human languages and various music, including the American-Melancholy Blues, which is played by Louis Armstrong and his band. It is...right, the total length is 3 minutes and 5 seconds!"
It would be fine if you didn't say it, but Sarah Sieg caught everyone off guard as soon as he said it, and all felt incredible.
"Start the detector and map the surface data." Li Chuan issued a clear and neat command. Ten minutes later, a surveying and mapping satellite probe ejected from the spacecraft and began to draw the information surface topography.
On the bridge, everyone said nothing, and at this moment, the computer was comparing the received echo audio with the tuned Louis Armstrong tracks.
"The comparison results are out, the commander. The overall similarity is 67%, the local comparison similarity is 96%, and the possibility of the same track is 82%.
Several members couldn't help but open their mouths slightly, hold their heads with their hands, and stare at the central console in shock, "How can the electrical signals sent from the surface of this planet have... music from the earth?"
"Commander, the satellite mapping has been completed and the model has been established." About an hour and a half later, the synthetic voice of artificial intelligence sounded again, and Li Chuan immediately called it out on the console, and said: "Identify possible unnatural landform characteristics and civilized characteristics."
"Data processing is being completed."
"Commander, the results show that there are 2237 unnatural landform features on the planet's land surface."
When the voice of the electronic synthesized sound falls, the spherical planet model in the projected image changes immediately, spreading out with a two-dimensional plan map. 2,237 red dots are distributed on 11 continents, mainly distributed in coastal areas, and some islands also have them, of which two of the continents located in the equatorial region are more distributed.
Everyone said nothing, but Li Chuan silently adjusted the map, selected a larger red dot position, and then expanded the local area in equal proportions.
Suddenly, Li Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the model with a calm gaze, and more than a dozen team members around the central platform exclaimed repeatedly. The partially expanded equal proportional images showed that large-scale unnaturally formed geometric terrain appeared in some gentle areas, and it was full of regularity.
"Is this... a city?" Julie said blankly. It's so similar, it's really too similar to the human city on Earth.
"Can you judge the existence of a smart civilization on this planet? If so, what stage is its current technological level?" Li Chuan asked immediately.
After a while, the humanized response of artificial intelligence voice synthesis: "The existing information cannot obtain accurate data, and it is calculated based on existing data. However, if there is a smart civilization, its scientific and technological level will not theoretically exceed the Third Industrial Revolution or be in between. Because no artificial satellite has been detected, it can be said that atomic energy, electronic computers and other landmark events have not occurred. But this does not mean that its scientific and technological level lags behind human beings. It is not ruled out that in theory life will find an evolutionary path that human civilization has never taken. I need more data for analysis and processing, commander."
Li Chuan thought for a moment, then left the central platform and headed towards the entrance and exit of the bridge gate. At the same time, he said: "Cock, Liu Jin, Sarah comes with me, and land on the surface in twenty minutes and bring the radio station transceiver with him."
Cock was immediately energetic and quickly followed him. When Chu Siyuan heard that he did not call his name, he hurriedly said, "Boss, what about me? I want to..."
"You stay on the bridge analysis, boy, your position is very important."
"All right……"
Twenty minutes passed in a flash. In outer space, the huge "Qingtian" circled the planet's high altitude orbit. The main cabins at the tail slowly opened. A shuttle slowly tried out. After leaving the spacecraft, the shuttle's engine started and immediately roared towards the surface of the planet at a high speed.
