Even in the original work, the appearance of the Trisolarans is very mysterious. Human beings have never seen the appearance of this kind of alien, and now it seems that the appearance of this kind of alien will soon be revealed.
.
Lan Nuo was also a little curious about what kind of creature he would see, but the trash can-like robot expressed disdain for it.
"It's rare but strange. Don't think about seeing any special race. There are only a few reasonable body structures in the three-dimensional world. If Trisolarans can empathize with you to a certain extent, it means that they are at least bilaterian animals.
Among bilaterian animals, the body structure that is reasonable and can use tools will not be much different from yours. If you are lucky, you may encounter a race with eight limbs. If you are not lucky,
, they may have humanoid shapes like you, walk on two legs, and use tools with their hands.
This is a mathematical problem. If you study biological topology carefully, you will find it.
You should also find a phenomenon called convergent evolution on your planet, that is, species of completely different species, or even completely different families and classes, will gradually evolve into similar images after living in similar environments.
, occupying the same ecological niche.
Even though their internal structures may be very different, their displayed characteristics are very similar.
The most typical ones are actually ferns and your current angiosperms. In ancient times, the jungles on your earth did not have the trees you see now. All they grew were ferns, but at that time the forests looked like
It wouldn't be much different now, because ferns back then looked almost the same as trees today.
The same goes for intelligent creatures. You need to use tools. If you want to escape from the heavy natural selection, cooperate with each other to form a society, and have enough potential to develop into space, there are actually very few images to choose from.
Even in the four-dimensional world, the degree of freedom in space is higher, the images of creatures are more colorful, the appearance characteristics of intelligent creatures are also very similar, and there are not many images to choose from.
So don’t have high expectations. The Trisolarans may look exactly like you, but they just have the function of dehydration.” The cemetery always pours cold water on people when they are very excited, as if this is a lost civilization.
The bad taste of old people.
"In this regard... when you go to my place, you will find that the universe is more monotonous than you imagined." Lan Nuo said this to the cemetery alone. Others could not understand what he meant.
After hearing this, the cemetery seemed thoughtful.
In the Marvel world, most of the various alien races look like humans. Even the ones that are quite different from humans only have some more organs than humans. Even the tree people will eventually grow.
In human form, the diversity of races is even lower than the description of the cemetery.
Of course, that must be due to the changes that occurred after the intervention of some extremely powerful individuals, which is different from the more natural evolution in the Trisolaran world.
As controllable high-energy particles fly in the universe, the Trisolaran fleet can be observed through optical observation. The scientists waiting in front of the screen hold their breath, especially the biologists among them, who are even more stunned.
My eyes are wide open as I wait to witness the moment when two civilizations meet.
A part of the controllable high-energy particles slowed down in mid-air. These were prepared to catch up with the fleet. The remaining ones that did not slow down continued to fly towards the direction of the Trisolaran Galaxy at high speed, and then passed by the fleet at extremely high speeds.
.
The controllable high-energy particles and the fleet are moving in the opposite direction. If they are not slowed down, they will pass by the fleet at a speed close to the speed of light. In that case, there will be no time to slow down and stop.
In fact, if there is no deceleration, at a speed close to the speed of light, the field of vision will be distorted, and the appearance of the Trisolaran fleet will not be clearly visible at all. Now the image of the Trisolaran fleet will be projected on the screen after deceleration.
This was already the countdown to the collision between the two sides. In the next hour, everyone almost forgot to breathe. In the observation room, only the faint sound of mechanical operation could be heard, and almost no human voice.
As the controllable high-energy particles got closer and closer to the fleet, they were finally able to barely see what the fleet looked like.
The Trisolaran fleet is quite scattered. From a distance, you can only see one small dot after another. If you use a telescope to zoom in, only one spacecraft will appear in the field of view at the same time.
Obviously, the Trisolarans will not make a joke of two thousand gunfires like humans. That kind of dense formation sailing in space itself is unreasonable. The Trisolaran fleet is quite scattered, and the overall formation is also unreasonable.
It is not a three-dimensional formation, but a wild goose formation.
The Trisolaran spacecraft also looks a bit strange. It looks like ecological rollers. The propeller is at the tail of the slowly rotating roller. It is still accelerating. The fleet has not yet reached the maximum speed and needs to accelerate again.
It will take more than ten years to turn off the accelerator and enter the process of uniform linear motion.
Although the fleet's spaceship looks like a huge roller, there are huge, sail-like things on the outer edge of the roller. It has been stowed away at this time, but traces of such a structure can still be seen.
When necessary, they can be re-deployed and become a super-large sail with a diameter of nearly a kilometer.
"To actually design such a structure, it is somewhat similar to a solar sail, but the Trisolaran should use another method to propel the spacecraft, perhaps by hitting the sail with a high-energy laser beam to propel the spacecraft.
When the fleet was just built, the technology of the Trisolarans was not much higher than that of humans. It was probably at that time that the technology was not enough, in order to save fuel and carry more materials needed for immigrants.
This design allows the spacecraft to remove more fuel to adjust its flight direction and slow down."
Some scientists put forward an analysis, which was approved by everyone. It also alleviated people's fear of the Trisolarans. Many years ago, the technology of the Trisolarans was not much higher than that of humans. Otherwise, there would be no need to design spaceships.
It's like this.
However, it can be seen from the fact that humans can still be unilaterally suppressed in technological development. Even if it was not much higher at that time, the current Trisolaran technology still has an overwhelming advantage over humans.
This was confirmed as the controllable high-energy particles continued to approach, and the silver water droplets with total reflection were observed one after another in the fleet.
These silver water droplets fly faster than the spaceship.
As detectors, they fly in front of the fleet. Among the tasks they are responsible for, one of the most important tasks is to detect whether there are meteorites or the like in front of the fleet to ensure that there will be no fatal collisions during the fleet's high-speed navigation.
.
The water droplets that were the first to come into contact with controllable high-energy particles demonstrated ultra-high technology that is beyond the reach of humans today.
The controllable high-energy particles cannot penetrate the surface of the water droplet at all, and can only be observed on the surface. The picture is continuously enlarged, and the information ultimately transmitted is absolutely smooth on this silver surface.
In order to verify what substance the silver water droplets were, controllable high-energy particles collided with them under remote control. This impact also made the scientists who had held their breath breathe a sigh of relief as they felt the huge gap in technology.
In previous observations, the surface of the water droplet is almost absolutely smooth. As the controllable high-energy particles hit it, the operator can feel the microscopic world in a very intuitive way. The feeling is just like seeing with the eyes or touching with the fingers.
The feeling conveyed to the observer is as if he is touching the closely connected atomic nuclei.
"It turns out that it is a strong interaction material. It is indeed an incredible technology. I remember that two years ago, our scientists synthesized a piece of strong interaction material with a side length of 15 nanometers in the laboratory. We regarded it as this.
A cross-century invention, it now seems that this is a quite mature technology among the Trisolarans."
Nowadays, humans have been able to synthesize extremely small materials with strong interaction force. Therefore, after seeing the water droplets, the scientists did not show the confusion and panic in the original work, but only expressed their amazement at the Trisolaran people's technology.
"I wonder if all their fleets are also made of this material? If so, the information we can obtain may be limited. Controlled high-energy particles without four-dimensional fragments cannot penetrate into a fully enclosed strong interaction.
It is made of strong material. I hope there are gaps in their spaceship. It is best not to have a design where the door of the spacecraft is made of liquid like water waves, then it will really be a seamless egg."
Lan Nuo is not particularly worried about this issue that scientists are worried about. In fact, strong interaction materials are not invincible. Controllable high-energy particles can penetrate, but they will be shattered when they penetrate. Human beings
The technology is limited, and controllable high-energy particles cannot be used until they are broken to a certain extent.
It's not like the Trisolaran sophon, who can shatter peace into pieces.
The first batch of controllable high-energy particles sent out did not come with secondary controllable high-energy particles. That is, the number of them can be counted. There are only more than 5,000 in total. If you want to smash the strong interaction force
The material at least makes a hole in the strong interaction material, and at least thousands of controllable high-energy particles must be accelerated to close to the speed of light to hit it. Only then can a controllable high-energy particle be sent in for detection.
For such a luxurious thing, others couldn't do it, but Lan Nuo could do it in the rehearsal. There would be no consumption at all, and he could just take the information and leave.
However, as the controllable high-energy ions approached the fleet, everyone soon discovered that this worry was unnecessary. No matter what materials the fleet was made of, at least they were not formed in one piece and had many gaps.
Even if the gas can be sealed and a space can be maintained that prevents gas from leaking out, it is still enough for controllable high-energy particles to easily penetrate.
On the screen, the field of view showed that the controllable high-energy particles came around the spacecraft, circled the spacecraft several times to take pictures, and then found a gap with a large gap on the spacecraft, and got in through the gap.
After drilling in, what appears in the field of vision are various pipelines. It can be roughly judged that these lines are similar to the wires on the earth. Some are metal covered with a layer of insulation, and some are bare.
Although the Trisolarans have much higher technology than humans, it seems that the control system of the spacecraft is electronic, which is the most convenient and practical.
Bypassing these dense cables, the controllable high-energy particles found that this was a closed space, which should be isolated from the living area of the fleet. Inside, they could travel through the gaps and find the reactor of the spacecraft. Different controllable high-energy particles could see
Reactors are also different.
Most of what we see is nuclear fusion reaction. This mass-to-energy conversion that occurs in the sun seems to be the mainstream energy source for Trisolarans.
On top of the largest flagship is a different reactor, at least a technology that scientists currently cannot understand at all, but reasonable guesses can be made based on the structure of the reactor.
"The reactor is mainly divided into two parts, and the location where the energy is generated is where the two parts are combined. I think the relatively complex area is probably used to produce antimatter, and the relatively simple area is probably used to refine it.
Matter that annihilates each other with antimatter." This analysis was not made by Lan Nuo, but by a high-energy physicist present.
"It is possible, but I think the greater possibility is that the refining of antimatter has been completed on the Trisolaran star. That relatively complex structure should only be used to store antimatter, well... no matter what the case is.
, that should be regarded as the weak point of the spacecraft.
According to the formula of mass-energy conversion, as long as we invest controllable high-energy particles of about ten to the thirteenth power, we can have a visible impact on the antimatter in this reaction in the macroscopic world, and maybe we can help it break the constraints.
Container, the big explosion caused by that might destroy the entire spacecraft." Lan Nuo looked like the reactor on the screen, with evil intentions.
However, there are no controllable high-energy particles. At this time, it is meaningless to search for antimatter for annihilation. Even if all the mass of a proton is converted into energy, it will not be able to produce even a spark in the macroscopic world.
After searching the enclosed area, the controllable high-energy particles hit the wall below. It turns out that only part of the outer shell of the spacecraft is made of strong interaction materials, and most of the structures are nanomaterials, which are controllable.
High-energy particles can easily penetrate, and after penetrating this layer of material, you will come to the member cabin, and coming here means that you are not far away from actually seeing the appearance of the Trisolaran.
