The key technologies of the fifth-order civilization are inter-galactic navigation, new generation energy technology, and the initial utilization of space technology.
So, what is the iconic technology of the sixth-order civilization?
The Federation doesn't know. After all, it has only been ten years since it successfully broke through to the fifth-order civilization. At present, it doesn't even have a concept of the sixth-order civilization, let alone understand what the iconic technologies are.
Speaking of which, Ling Ruoxuan has indeed become overshadowed a lot since Chu Yanxi entered the Central Academy of Sciences.
After all, compared to scientific research ability, the gap with Chu Yanxi is still quite large.
Therefore, in these more than ten years, there have not been any too dazzling results.
But this time...
Although there are some accidental elements, Ling Ruoxuan did create it...
A technology that will impact the entire Federation.
That is...
Reconstruction technology of space particles!
As mentioned before, space particles are the currently known basic units of the universe.
At the same time, space particles have another name, which is dark energy, which many people are familiar with.
It can be said that in this universe, no matter what it is, it is structured through space particles.
Even if...
The same is true for humans themselves.
Space particles are also called creator particles by many people.
Therefore, within the federal scientific community, there has always been a point of view.
As long as you master the reconstruction technology of space particles, you can create all things like the Creator.
However, the idea is good, but if it is actually implemented...
But it's not that easy.
Many people have tried, but without exception, they have all failed.
Until a month ago.
The Central Academy of Sciences suddenly announced that it has completed the first step in human history...
The first real space particle reconstruction experiment.
------
Federal Central Academy of Sciences.
Institute of Space Science.
In a huge laboratory.
Hundreds of scientists in white coats are busy around a huge piece of equipment.
At first glance, this thing even looks like a 3D printer.
But obviously, this is not the end of that kind of backwardness, but a test machine for the space particle framework device built by the Academy of Space Sciences under the leadership of Ling Ruoxuan.
"Dean, the filling of space particles has been completed."
"Calling out parameter c-07!"
"Understood, parameter C-07 has been adjusted."
The next moment, a ghost figure of a piece of equipment appeared in the working area of the testing machine.
This is a very common device in the federation, a personal universal terminal...
Soon, with the operation of a man in a white coat, this personal terminal was directly transformed into countless parts, and next to each part, there was a virtual window in which a large amount of data kept flashing.
"Dean, get ready!"
"Well, the seventh space particle reconstruction experiment has begun!"
"Yes, Dean!"
When the white coat pressed a virtual button on the console, the entire testing machine trembled slightly.
Then, the magical things began.
The translucent shadows of parts that were originally in the working area of the testing machine now seem to have turned into entities at a speed that is just visible to the naked eye.
One minute later...
It is no longer a virtual shadow, but thousands of solid parts, appearing...
Subsequently, these parts were pulled by some force in the testing machine and assembled quickly.
In this way, a brand new federal personal general terminal has been presented to everyone.
"Dean, it's successful. This is the first time we have completed an experiment with a complex structure!"
"Yes, to this extent, it can already be applied to many industries. Even if we continue to study it, even those heavy industrial fields in the interstellar era can be achieved."
"The key is that the craftsmanship of things manufactured in this way is absolutely beyond the reach of previous manufacturing industries."
For a time, the entire laboratory turned into a sea of joy.
Although six successful experiments have been carried out before, what was manufactured in those six times was only a single part, rather than a relatively complex overall device like a personal general-purpose terminal.
This means that the entire technology has taken another big step forward.
The most important thing is that, as a white-coat man said before, the craftsmanship of manufacturing using this method is absolutely unmatched by other methods.
After all, every part is constructed from the level of space particles, even if there are errors.
Then this error is definitely smaller than that of space particles.
However, space particles are already the smallest units of the known universe, and the error is smaller than this...
Does it really exist?
No one knows this yet, but it is impossible to deny it.
Even if there are smaller units, it is not an area that humans can know or come into contact with in the short term.
Imagine what changes this technology will bring to mankind.
No matter what it is, as long as you know its basic arrangement of space particles, you can create it directly.
Give an example.
For example, to make a cannon, you must first obtain the various materials required, then pass these materials through various processes, further process these materials, and use the processed materials to manufacture various parts and components, and finally complete the process.
Assemble.
But what now?
All the previous tedious steps can be avoided.
Set the arrangement parameters of the space particles, and then use the space particle reconstruction device to skip all steps and create the finished product directly.
Even...
This method can be used to create the federation's scarce resources.
For example, silver core ore, Aitos metal, etc.
Aren’t these things very scarce in the Federation?
Just build it directly with space particles!
In other words, from now on, there will no longer be any scarce resources in the Federation.
Even...
No matter what the resource is, its value to the federation is the same.
Why do you say that?
That's because the space particle reconstruction device can be used in two completely opposite ways.
One is decomposition and the other is reorganization.
The so-called decomposition means that anything can be completely decomposed into space particles.
The Zerg, on the other hand, uses the space particles obtained from decomposition to rearrange them to create new things.
Take Aitos Metal as an example.
With this technology, the Federation can even break down the least valuable iron ore in the universe into space particles.
Then the separated space particles are used to rearrange and structure it, and finally the Aitos metal is obtained.
Therefore, no matter what resource it is, there is no difference in value in this technology.
Because, they can be converted into each other in this way...
------
When the report of the seventh experiment was presented to the top federal officials.
Everyone was shocked.
Even people without any scientific research talent can understand how significant this technology is.
After a short discussion, the top management reached an agreement.
If you ask for people, give people, and if you ask for money, give money, and there is no upper limit.
There is only one request...
Make this technology practical as soon as possible, as quickly as possible...
Transform the entire federation's interstellar industrial system.
