Chapter 1173 Difficulties in Interstellar Navigation
Fen gave up the argument, which didn't mean that Lin ignored her original worry. At least Fen didn't plan to move her steps yet. So Lin asked: "What were you thinking about? It couldn't be something related to goblins, right?"
.Are those little things worthy of your concern?"
Fen curled her lips when she heard someone keep saying that she didn't have it, but in fact it was a serious discriminatory statement. But she didn't want to continue to focus on the goblins, but answered someone's question seriously." Seeing the Gosbottom number.
As we were preparing for the trial voyage, I remembered a question I had always wanted to ask."
Fen paused briefly, and Lin finally turned his head and looked directly at the beauty in front of him, waiting for the other party to continue asking.
"That's a battleship-level robot. It can adapt to what you call interstellar navigation."
Lin didn't think much and replied directly: "There is no doubt about this. The anti-gravity device integrated with magic and the Vap engine allow them to travel between the stars at speeds exceeding the speed of light. As half-machine, half-magic creations
For a robot, the energy source of the machine part can be collected from the countless stars and provided to the nuclear fusion reactor, which is not expensive and expensive. Only the magic part must be considered whether it can only be obtained from the mysterious land.
Obtained from the relevant plane world, when the distance is separated, will the difference in the speed of replenishment and consumption become unbearable. Only by clear research on this part can we truly escape from the lost land, escape from the earth elemental plane, and conduct the so-called interstellar journey.
Sailing.”
No matter what level of robot it is, the mechanical part has not yet left Lin's cognitive scope, that is, the earth's achievements before someone traveled through time. But the robot is not only composed of machinery, but also has magical parts.
However, what kind of effects this idealistic composition has and what its limits are are still not fully understood.
"So, after solving the magic problem, you can ask a battleship class, or even a fleet, to send you back to your hometown directly by interstellar navigation. That's right."
Listening to the beauty in front of him and her chilling words, Lin felt as if he had lost something. He didn't know where this feeling came from, but he still replied seriously: "It seems like that."
It’s reasonable, but it’s not the best choice.”
The cold feeling disappeared instantly. Fen opened his eyes wide and asked unexpectedly: "Why?"
"Because the distance is too far."
"say clearly."
Faced with this hot and cold attitude, a certain person was thoughtful. In fact, he has never been an incomprehensible person. But if he wants to leave after all, he really doesn't know what to do with this nonsense.
Calculate. So someone had to continue to pretend to be stupid and said: "According to my calculations, the distance between Midland and the Earth is at least 10 million light-years. With the current level of the WAP engine of the robot battleship class, it cannot be done.
To cross such a distance in a short period of time, if I want to take a robot battleship back to Earth, I will encounter two situations."
"Which two kinds?" Although Fen wouldn't ask about purely technical knowledge that he wasn't interested in. However, the more knowledge at this popular science level, the better. So he asked.
"First of all, what I want to say is that the robot's Vap engine is not the earth's warp engine in the true sense. In other words, after entering the Vap space, the time dilation situation has not been resolved; but such an engine,
But it can jump across dimensions. And they don't see any disadvantages in using it, just because at this stage they don't need to carry out real interstellar navigation, it's just very short-distance movement."
"What does this mean?"
"It means that when they sail close to the speed of light and exceed the speed of light, their own time will slow down, and the disguised external time will seem to speed up. Even if they fly back to the earth, it may be the earth millions of years later.
Not the earth I left. And this is just one of the situations."
"What about the other one?"
"That's how long this journey home will take. Even at a speed of warp speed nine or above, it may take decades or even hundreds of years. In other words, it is very likely that before I
I will never be able to return to Earth in my lifetime. If I take my partner with me and live on a battleship, it may take several generations for my great-grandchildren to reach their destination. If this time is longer, then the people I bring will be
If there are not enough, you will have to endure inbreeding in the offspring before any living people can arrive."
As he spoke, Lin threw out several formulas, tables and graphs. Fen's mathematical skills were easy to understand at a glance. Lin then continued: "Although the battleship-class robots have advanced in technology, even my hometown has
It's beyond reach. Only in science fiction stories can we find the corresponding level. But if you want to send me home, it's not enough."
With a sigh, Lin looked up at the sky and said: "Unless I give up looking for other methods today and just want to send my ashes back. Then it is not impossible to entrust a battleship-level robot to do this. Otherwise, it will be me.
It is possible that I will arrive on Earth when I am old enough to die. But at that time, human beings may have been extinct or degenerated. The protagonists on the surface will be replaced by a bunch of apes, and then I will see the dumped on the coast somewhere.
Statue of Liberty. But I probably wouldn’t kneel down and shout ‘No~!’. That would be the reaction of the protagonist when he suddenly sees unacceptable facts without knowing it. For me,
Such a result can be said to be expected, so there is nothing surprising. Not to mention, there is a greater possibility that the earth has been destroyed by the humans living on it. "
Fen felt more and more strange the more he listened, and his only thought was: "What kind of nonsense is that?"
"Haha." Lin smiled easily. There were some jokes that no one here could answer. Maybe this kind of loneliness is the motivation that makes him want to go home.
But Fen remembered another thing and asked again: "What about the progress of your flash technique?" What she wanted to ask was exactly how someone originally planned to use the flash technique to directly carry out ultra-long distance teleportation and return to the earth.
That method.
Lin shrugged helplessly and spread his hands and said: "The flash technique is two-way. It can not only send things over, but also grab things at the destination. And I have tried to grab the position where the earth should be from the calculation more than once.
One cubic centimeter of something comes back. But the result is always the same, nothing. There are not even air particles or ion dust that should be filled in the vacuum of the universe. Doesn't this prove that my calculation results are wrong, and the earth is not
Not where I calculated it to be."
Fen pondered for a moment and asked, "Well, what do you think the problem is?"
"My night starry sky can be recognized by the earth's consciousness, which proves that there is no big problem with the star map I calculated through simulation. But the flash technique requires very precise positioning. The distance between the mysterious land and the earth is so far away that it can be calculated to just a few decimal points.
One hundred digits, the accuracy is still not enough. So how much accuracy is required and whether there are other auxiliary methods need to be considered. The most troublesome thing is that this ultra-long-distance flash can almost kill me once.
Squeeze it dry once. It’s destined that I won’t be able to use it frequently. Even if I want to use exhaustive methods to find the correct position of the earth, I can’t.”
"So, you're not leaving for the time being?"
"I can't leave, okay. I want to go home, not die."
