In terms of population, the Trisolarans are much larger than today's humans, and they have wonder facilities one after another. They have the ability and time to build such wonders.
It is not unreasonable to build a nation out of adversity. Compared with some previous generations who were free and careless and only focused on internal fighting, the Trisolaran people are obviously much more united, and this unity has already formed a tradition. Although the individual is against the collective
The great obedience stifles subjective initiative to a certain extent, but it also allows this race to have the power to execute a difficult plan after formulating it.
These facilities, which took countless people's efforts to build, are still incomprehensible to most humans so far. They need to learn the knowledge of Trisolarans one after another in order to understand the principles inside.
Fortunately, the Trisolarans do not have any good means of detecting controllable high-energy particles. In fact, the Trisolarans want to defend against such detection.
Their silent monitoring of the earth made them feel scared. They were afraid that they were also under such silent monitoring, so they once built equipment to scan microscopic particles.
But the cost of this thing is still too high. It is barely acceptable to install it on a spacecraft. The size of the spacecraft can be easily scanned as a whole, but when placed on the planet, the number and power required are unacceptable.
Controllable high-energy particles may hide in any corner of the planet, including the center of the planet deep in the earth, which is also where they can hide. If the planet is scanned in this way, even the Trisolarans will consume resources.
Flesh hurts.
After all, they only have one planet, and they have divided the earth's crust into so many layers just to make the most rational use of the planet's resources, feed as many Trisolarans as possible, and find a way out for civilization.
It is impossible to waste a large amount of planetary resources on defense against the detection of unknown civilizations, such a groundless worry.
So far, controllable high-energy particles can travel relatively freely on the Trisolaran planet, but on the spacecraft side, you must be as careful as possible, because scientists have discovered that the high-energy particle detector on the Trisolaran spacecraft can
Scan to determine the location of controllable high-energy particles.
It's just that these devices are not turned on now. The power-on scan will continue to consume energy. During this long voyage in the dark interstellar space, the possibility of being monitored inexplicably is very low. In order to save the energy of the spacecraft, the most important thing is to
Reduce equipment wear and tear. These scanning equipment are shut down daily.
It has to be said that the members of the scientific research fleet decided to complete the reconnaissance mission against the Trisolarans first, and it was an extremely correct decision to announce the controllable high-energy particles they created to humans. With the Trisolarans alert, a lot of confidential information
It can no longer be obtained.
But now that the Trisolarans have discovered nothing, the controllable high-energy particles can read the Trisolarans' intelligence information without any scruples and enter the Trisolarans' storage devices.
The Trisolarans do not use hard drives to store information, but they still have not escaped the shackles of quantum limits. In other words, cheap storage media are still at the atomic level. Storage facilities at this level can already store a large amount of information. Although the Trisolarans have
Massive data, but compared to their huge storage space, it is actually nothing. There is no need to use more efficient storage media when storing ordinary data.
The information they store can be directly read from the physical level. Many confidential databases appear to be well-defended, and controllable high-energy particles are unimpeded and can enter and exit at will.
After the scientific expedition fleet had a rough understanding of the Trisolaran characters, they began to quickly read the Trisolaran technical information. Theoretical physicists could finally gradually understand the Trisolaran people by interpreting the corresponding documents.
There are devices on the planet and in the Trisolaran fleet that humans don't understand at all.
The first thing this understanding brings is bad news. The Trisolaran fleet may be short of fuel, but it will not be short of energy, because the gravitational wave energy transmission technology that the Trisolarans are now widely using has actually been providing
Fleet recharges.
Gravitational waves propagate concentratedly in the direction of the fleet at the speed of light, and the energy is stored in the fleet's gravitational wave storage, and this energy can be used by the fleet to enter a combat posture.
Even after hundreds of years, when the fleet came to Earth, it was still able to maintain a fairly high combat effectiveness.
This is essentially no different from long-distance power transmission. Electromagnetic waves in various frequency bands can carry energy, and can ignore most obstacles for long-distance transmission within a certain distance. Naturally, there is wireless power transmission technology.
Gravitational waves can also carry energy, and their penetrating power in space is even stronger. When released from the Trisolaran planet and released in the direction of the Trisolaran fleet, it can also provide the fleet with huge energy.
Of course, this will inevitably lead to huge waste. Electromagnetic waves propagate such a long distance and almost nothing is left. It is also difficult to constrain electromagnetic waves to such a small area, just enough to be received by the fleet. In fact, gravitational waves
We also face the same problems, but these problems are easier to solve at the technical level than electromagnetic waves.
But after all, there is a huge waste, 99% or more of the energy is wasted in the void of the universe, but it doesn't matter, what a race with a long history like the Trisolarans is best at is creating wonders.
The crust of the Trisolaran planet was hollowed out by the Trisolarans and divided into one hundred and eighty layers. There are thirty gravitational wave antennas in each layer, building a structure similar to the positive twenty-nine
The structure of the hexahedron.
In this way, the power they can transmit gravitational waves will be incredibly high. Even if most of the energy is wasted during the transmission process, the Trisolaran fleet will still be able to obtain an extremely sufficient energy supply.
This is a super project that humans can only understand after decrypting and understanding the Trisolaran gravitational wave technology.
"We still don't know why the Trisolarans want the spacecraft to have so much energy. Maybe this is directly related to some powerful weapons on their spacecraft. They may consume more energy than the thrusters.
, or maybe this itself is a weapon that controls gravity." Lan Nuo transmitted the confidential information obtained from the Trisolarans on the screen in front of everyone.
The scientists and their clones present all looked solemn. One of the theoretical physicists pointed to a piece of information in the corner and said: "I think they may use gravitational waves to control this kind of..."
There is a water droplet detector, please take a look at this information from the Trisolaran people." The theoretical physicist pointed to a line above the information.
"This says that water droplets can make large-angle turns that violate the law of inertia in classical physics, and keep their speed unchanged in the process.
I think this may be some kind of advanced application of gravitational waves. He did not complete the steering, but completed the distortion of space and time through a special waveform in the gravitational wave, and he emerged from the distortion of space and time.
After breaking away, the direction change happened to be completed, so that inertia could be ignored.
I hope to collect more literature in this area, because the first thing the earth encounters is likely to be water droplets. These detectors have been launched in advance, and their speed limit is much faster than larger spacecraft.
We can all accelerate the spacecraft to five percent of the speed of light. Now if we use the limit of human technology, it can even be close to ten percent of the speed of light. The Trisolarans, who are so technologically advanced than us, if most of the technology is used
If we accelerate, we can definitely go far beyond our limit.
If they wanted to, the water droplets could reach Earth in decades, or even years.
If you look at this document, when the Trisolaran fleet was developing immortality technology in Llano, it was like the Trisolaran planet applying to launch a batch of water droplets to go to the earth in advance. And their application document is here, which mentions this batch.
The purpose of the water droplets is to kill Lanno."
As he spoke, the theoretical physicist also looked at Lan Nuo at the meeting.
"I understand what you mean. Since the water droplets are going to kill my body, the plan made by the Trisolaran people should be that I cannot develop immortality technology before the water droplets arrive, and that means that the water droplets are at least
At that time, I will be able to reach the earth before my life span comes to an end.
That is to say, theoretically, in seventy years at the latest, well... it should be about sixty years now. This batch of water droplets will arrive on the earth, and humans will need to face the vanguard of the Trisolarans."
"Yes, I think so too, so I hope to decipher the application of water droplets to gravitational waves, understand why they can turn at sharp angles, and whether they can use gravity to cause damage at other levels.
Moreover, gravitational wave technology is also a technical direction that is about to make breakthroughs on the earth, and I hope that I can also promote technological breakthroughs in this area."
Lan Nuo nodded: "We will try our best to allocate resources for controllable high-energy particles and learn more about this information. If water droplets made of strong interaction materials can turn at an acute angle, even for those who can use four-dimensional space debris,
Nirvana is also a huge threat.
After all, when we launch an attack, we must leave the four-dimensional space, at least part of our limbs. As long as the Trisolarans can observe the position of the controllable high-energy particles in our core and have the ability to turn at an acute angle, then in space battles
, they can target us.
Don’t put all your hopes in technology that we stumbled upon from four-dimensional space.”
…
After the controllable high-energy particles adjusted their scanning focus, they quickly obtained a large amount of information on gravitational wave technology. Lanno and theoretical physicists worked together to interpret the information, discuss the academic principles, and compare
Based on the weapons of the Trisolarans, we can roughly guess the effects of several gravitational wave weapons of the Trisolarans.
"One of them is the device you mentioned before, which allows the aircraft to turn at an acute angle without slowing down. This device has been miniaturized and can even be carried by a single person.
And we...the gap in basic industry is too big. If we copy their technology without changing the data, it will take at least fifty years to produce the same type of products, and it will be difficult for one person to carry it.
Miniaturization." After Lan Nuo finished speaking, he pointed to the picture of the second device on the screen and said:
"This is another gravitational wave weapon we discovered, and it is also a weapon equipped on a large scale in the Trisolaran fleet. As we all know, in space without air, the shock wave of an explosion is difficult to propagate. For this reason, we designed fragments
Nuclear bombs add extremely high-temperature-resistant nanomaterials to the shell of a super hydrogen bomb to expand the killing range of the hydrogen bomb in space.
But this is ultimately a kinetic strike, and there is still a huge gap in the destructive effect of shock waves in the atmosphere.
The Trisolarans took a different approach. There is no air in space as a medium to transmit shock waves, but space and time are everywhere, and the fluctuations that propagate in space and time are naturally everywhere.
Weak gravitational waves can hardly cause damage to the material world. At most, they can cause slight changes in the length and width of objects. However, strong enough gravitational waves are enough to tear apart most of the matter in the universe. Even if we are now only
Can be synthesized on a small scale.
Materials with a strong interaction force that cannot even be synthesized from fragments of a size visible to the naked eye will be easily torn into pieces under such fluctuations in space and time."
When Lan Nuo read the original work on Three-Body Problem, he actually had a doubt. In the history of weapon development, attack has always been stronger than defense. Shields and armors are difficult to withstand arrows and catapults.
Body armor and tank armor are even worse than the most powerful offensive weapons currently available to humans.
The smaller the existence, the higher the technology required to obtain strong defense. Since the water droplet can have such a strong defense, the Trisolaran attack weapon should be able to easily destroy the water droplet's defense.
These weapons have never been reflected in the original work. The Trisolaran fleet withdrew without even crossing the Oort Nebula. Water droplets are the only Trisolaran creations that humans have ever seen. Strictly speaking, in the original work,
Human beings have not even seen sophons, all they have seen are incarnations made of earth materials.
It now seems that even if civilization has developed to a high level, offensive weapons are still stronger than defense. The Trisolaran's gravity blast can easily tear apart strong interaction materials, and this also explains the outer armor of the Trisolaran fleet.
The strong interaction material on the surface is far more than just one layer of atomic nuclei. The important reason why it is much thicker is obviously to defend against the same type of attacks.
"The Trisolarans have gravitational wave bombs, and they can also use the gravitational wave generator to create small gravitational wave explosions inside their spacecraft. According to their weapon instructions, the explosion will appear out of thin air, and the error in the damage range will not vary.
It will be more than one millimeter and is used to clear enemies that enter the fleet.
The Trisolarans think just like us, they believe that gang fighting is the most likely way for humans to threaten them. Although they think it is almost impossible for humans to board their spaceship, they still made such a design." Lan Nuo.
Looking at the Nirvana people around him, they were already familiar with the use of four-dimensional space fragments, but all of them had ugly expressions at this time.
