The gravitational wave telescope did not see the alien spacecraft just now because the parameters were set too small. But now after setting the appropriate parameters, it has indeed been seen, and the result is even more puzzling...
The volume of the alien spacecraft is only three thousandths of that of Sedna, but its gravity is ten times greater, which is completely an order of magnitude larger!
"impossible!"
It was simply too exaggerated. Yu Yifeng no longer knew what to say. He felt as if he had swallowed an egg raw.
Yes... it was so inexplicable that several people looked at each other with a sense of absurdity in their hearts.
"The telescope is broken?" This is the first feeling in people's minds.
However, Xu Yunjin and other top soldiers were relieved, as long as they could detect the alien spacecraft. The smaller circle was still docked on Sedna, which was enough. As for the mass, was it reasonable?
, that is something that scientists should consider, it is not their business.
Professor Thomson thought about it carefully and quickly found two possible reasons: first, there was something wrong with the telescope, which caused the observation results to be wrong; second, the opponent's spacecraft was indeed so heavy!
This is not a safety issue, but a weird scientific issue!
This existential crisis for mankind has not yet been completely overcome. Any information related to alien spacecraft should be discussed carefully. Especially, under this somewhat strange situation...
Yu Yifeng finally made the decision: "Convene an emergency meeting!"
This is not a particularly urgent safety issue, so there were not many participants. Most of the attendees were famous physicists and related astronomers.
When a group of people faced this problem, they all frowned and couldn't figure it out.
Like Yu Yifeng, they felt a sense of absurdity in their hearts, and all of them looked strange.
After a quarter of an hour, the person who stood up and spoke was the physicist Mr. Felix, "...I don't think it's a problem with the gravitational wave telescope. I just compared the calculated data of other celestial bodies on the screen, and they are all correct.
of."
"Did the telescope make an error when measuring the alien spacecraft? I think the probability is very small. Computers will not make mistakes. As long as there is no problem with the program, the probability of errors is very low. Either all calculations are wrong, or all calculations are correct... Could it be that...
Among a bunch of data, it miscalculated the one that human beings need most? The probability is extremely low!"
After Mr. Felix finished speaking, he sat down quietly.
Another scientist stood up immediately, and he was a little excited: "This is unreasonable. With this mass and volume, its average density reaches 6,000 tons/cubic meter, or even higher!"
"This density is six thousand times that of water and eight hundred times that of iron! There is definitely something wrong with this."
Yu Yifeng also took a pen and calculated. Even if it is completely solid, its density is much higher than any human material! Osmium, the densest metal, is only 22.59 tons/cubic meter, which is 6,000 tons/cubic meter.
Mibby, it’s really far behind!
"And...can such a heavy spacecraft really take off? To make it fly, it requires a huge amount of energy. I would rather believe that the telescope is wrong."
Yes, this goes against common sense!
Logically speaking, shouldn't the lighter the spaceship, the better? Why is it reversed now?
Green Light Civilization is a real interstellar civilization. Although humans have set up a fight, no one dares to underestimate them. If they really fight, they can destroy humans in minutes!
Their science and technology are definitely much more advanced than humans. Therefore, no one thinks that discussing this kind of issue is a waste of time. Perhaps... this question that goes against common sense can point out a clear path for human aerospace technology?
"First of all, we have to confirm that the telescope is wrong, or that their spacecraft is indeed super massive?" Yu Yifeng knocked on the table and asked in a deep voice. If these scientists can't figure out this issue, their quarrel will be in vain.
"Do you have any good suggestions?"
Professor Thomson is an expert in astronomy. Hearing this, he immediately thought of a good idea: "That's no problem... A large mass source will generate greater gravity, thus changing the motion trajectory of the surrounding stars. We can calculate
The motion trajectories of these stars can be used to estimate whether the mass of the spacecraft is really very large."
Next, some astronomical observers below immediately began to design a specific calculation plan. Such a plan was not complicated, and it took about half an hour to get the specific results.
The result is that the celestial bodies near the Sedna Star are subject to a gravitational force that is ten times stronger than before! Even the motion trajectory of the Sedna Star itself has been changed!
Facts speak louder than words, which means there is nothing wrong with this telescope, it is accurate!
For a time, many scientists were confused in their minds. They looked at the screen stupidly, feeling sluggish.
"A density of 6,000 tons/cubic meter is not something humans can achieve. We have no way to make something even 30 tons/cubic meter. There must be reasons we haven't thought of!"
"Moreover, large-mass spaceships are very detrimental to space navigation. According to our kinetic energy formula, the greater the mass, the greater the energy consumption required...unless all of this mass is energy material?!"
Many scientists were whispering among each other, and they increasingly felt that this situation was very strange, but they could not think of a particularly good reason.
Is the gap between humans and green light civilization so big?
"Except for some natural celestial bodies...it is unimaginable that there are things with such high density."
Hearing this, Yu Yifeng suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said directly: "Everyone, is it possible that the other party put some high-density stars into the spacecraft? For example, neutron star fragments, white dwarf star fragments?"
Many scientists looked a little weird, and Professor Ding Yidong even said unceremoniously: "Captain, the reason why white dwarfs are so dense is because their huge gravity squeezes atoms tightly together, and the repulsion between electrons only
It can barely support the squeeze of gravity."
"If a piece of the white dwarf star is cut off and the continuous squeeze of the huge gravity is instantly lost, the repulsive force between the electrons will immediately take over, and the white dwarf star fragment... will immediately expand and cause a violent explosion!"
"The same goes for neutron stars."
Many scientists nodded in agreement after hearing this. White dwarf fragments, neutron star fragments? It is simply unimaginable that these things cannot exist stably.
Yu Yifeng was suddenly speechless. In fact, at this time, he remembered a novel. In that novel, the earth was exploded by neutron star fragments, and then he just said it without thinking much.
He thought for a moment, and no matter how he thought about it, he felt that it was possible, so he added: "If alien civilization really has the ability to cut off a piece of fragments from a white dwarf or a neutron star, then it shouldn't be difficult to preserve these fragments, right?
"
"And, as you said, they will spontaneously expand and explode... If the explosion process is made slow and sustainable, will it become a new type of energy?"
"Just like the controllable nuclear fusion technology we imagine, as long as the speed of nuclear reaction explosion is controlled, new energy can be developed. And can this kind of star fragments also control the speed of explosion?"
