The huge Xinghan Academy of Sciences is composed of many huge space cities. Each space city is affiliated to a certain branch, such as the Physics Branch, the Chemistry Branch, the Institute of Universe and Astronomy Sciences, the Super Physics Branch, and the Energy Research Institute.
, Institute of Biological Sciences, etc.
The further science and technology develops, the more detailed it becomes. Disciplines of all sizes are no longer subdivided. The establishment here can be regarded as a large branch under the Xinghan Institute of Science, and the real small branches, research institutes, and experiments
Rooms, etc. are spread throughout every corner of Xinghan.
Here at the Institute of Astronomy and Astronomy, many astronomy scientists are gathering in a conference room, and everyone seems to be discussing something.
"The universe is really too big. The farthest distance we can currently observe is 100 billion light-years away, which means the age of the universe is about 100 billion years."
In the conference room, a young scientist stood up and said.
It is only possible to observe a distance of 100 billion light-years. This does not mean that Xinghan’s cosmic astronomical scientific detection methods have not made any progress. You must know that in the 21st century, when humans are still on the earth, humans are also able to observe
A distance of about 100 billion light years.
The real reason is that the age of the universe is only about 100 billion years, and because light propagates at the speed of light, the light of stars in the void of the universe 100 billion light-years away has not been transmitted at all, so only 1,000 can be observed.
A distance of about 100 million light-years, which infers that the age of the universe is already about 100 billion years.
This inference is completely different from the traditional Big Bang theory, because according to the traditional Big Bang theory, the universe was formed by the explosion of a singularity in the universe. Scientists have previously inferred that the age of the universe is about 15 billion years.
15 billion years and 100 billion years, these two numbers are very different, but no matter which number it is, it is an extremely long time and a long number for the current Xinghan.
"According to the information we currently have, the universe is actually a huge ball."
While the scientists were discussing, they also used virtual imaging technology to simulate the structure of the universe.
"The universe is constantly expanding. It is constantly devouring matter outside the universe and continues to grow and expand. Therefore, we can also infer that the universe also has a lifespan, but its lifespan is very long. It is so long that
Its lifespan may be 1 trillion years or 10 trillion years, but in any case, since the universe has a lifespan, sooner or later, the universe will also perish one day."
"If we can determine the position of our Milky Way in the interstellar universe, I think one method is feasible, and that is to observe the distance between star systems in the void of the universe around our Milky Way."
"According to the theory and theory of the growth of the universe, the universe is constantly expanding and expanding. The results we can observe now are that the stars in the universe are constantly red-shifting from each other, and the distance is getting farther and farther."
"So we can infer that at the edge of the universe, the distance between star systems is farther away, and the closer to the center of the universe, the closer the distance between star systems is."
"Regarding this, the situation of the Milky Way can prove it. The closer to the center of the Milky Way, the closer the stars are, the greater the density, and the denser the matter in the universe."
"The same can be said for the entire universe, so we can easily find the direction to the center of the universe."
"It feels like from the information we have now, the direction of the Andromeda Galaxy is the direction leading to the center of the universe. If we can explore the entire group of galaxies and master the information of the entire group of galaxies, we can also infer
The size of the universe.”
Astronomical scientists express their opinions to each other, or they continue to deduce and discuss along someone's train of thought. If it is a wrong inference, it is easy for everyone to find where the other party is untenable, but some inferences,
It sounds very reasonable, and some theories can be found to support it.
Nan Junpeng is sitting in the corner of the conference room. He has been listening quietly. He is very young. He is only over 100 years old now. This age is considered in today's Xinghan, especially in this Xinghan Science.
The main campus of the research institute is definitely a new place.
With the explosion of Xinghan's population, all kinds of talents are also constantly exploding. It is naturally more and more difficult to become an academician of Xinghan Academy of Sciences, so that the age is also constantly rising.
More than 10,000 years ago, the age to become an academician of the Xinghan Academy of Sciences was less than 300 years old. When Xinghan was founded, the average age was only 40 years old.
But now, the average age to become an academician has exceeded a thousand years old. Nan Junpeng became an academician of the Xinghan Academy of Sciences when he was only over 100 years old, which shows that he is a real monster and genius.
Most people his age are still doing research and studying with their mentors. The more technology develops, the more things they need to learn.
Nan Junpeng is a genius scientist among the new generation, and he is also a relatively all-round scientist with a wide range of interests. He is not only a cosmic and astronomical scientist, but also has won the Xinghan Award in the two fields of physics and biology.
The title of academician of the Academy of Sciences is simply a monster.
What's even more incredible is that he is actually very talented in the art of cultivation. He has already reached the level of a master at a young age, and he even hopes to break the record of being the youngest heavenly master in history.
After reading Nan Junpeng's resume, you will have to sigh. Genius does exist. He is like the moon in the night sky, so dazzling that it makes all the stars dim. As for the dark
At night, that is its background wall.
"What exactly is the universe?"
"And what is it made of?"
Nan Junpeng fell into deep thought. He has been very quiet since he was a child and likes to think about strange things. At this time, listening to other people discussing the universe, he also thought the same thing in his mind.
"Is the universe the same as us humans? It is also a life in itself, but the life of the universe is really too big, too big."
"Just like us humans are extremely huge compared to the bacteria and so on in our bodies."
An idea suddenly flashed in Nan Junpeng's mind, and he thought of an extremely exciting hypothesis: the universe is a huge life, and we humans and countless civilized races are just bacteria living in the huge life of the universe.
, and may not even be considered bacteria.
"If the universe is a huge life, what is it made of?"
"Interstellar dust, cosmic matter?"
"These are all things we can observe, and they may be superficial things. Because we humans are too small, we simply have no way to observe the entire universe from a large level and angle."
"But if the universe is a life, is it the same as the life we know now, and is it also composed of DNA?"
The more Nan Junpeng thought about it, the more excited he became. He vaguely felt that this would be a huge discovery and an exciting breakthrough.
"Do you think the universe is a life?"
Nan Junpeng, who had been quiet all this time, suddenly stood up and said to everyone.
Everyone looked at his thoughtful look and frowned when they heard the question again: "Can the universe be a life?"
"Look, we are now familiar with the planetary system, the star system, and the local group of galaxies~"
"Isn't this planetary system very similar to the most basic physical structure? The star is a massive atomic nucleus, and the planets are electrons, each with its own orbit."
"If we think of the planetary system as the most basic atom, aren't they very similar?"
With a thought, Nan Junpeng opened the virtual image, and pictures were projected in the virtual image.
Everyone couldn't help but nod slightly when they heard Nan Junpeng's words. It seemed that there really was some similarity.
"If the universe is a living entity, then does it, like other life forms in the universe, also have its own DNA? DNA is the content of biology. To be precise, it should be the most basic thing that makes up the universe.
, this thing may very well be the law or secret that we have been looking for."
"What makes up ordinary life is nda, and what makes up the universe is laws and secrets."
"We all know that in our Chinese Taoist thought, "Tao" is the origin of the universe. The so-called "Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things."
"Tao" determines. "Tao can be Tao, but it is not Tao. It can be named, but it is not named." This shows that Tao is elusive. The Tao here can now be understood as the collection of the origin and laws of the universe."
"We also know that life is composed of DNA, and DNA has a double helix structure. So, is the DNA of the universe the same as what Taoism says? One origin evolves into two, and then two gives rise to three, and three derives
It became everything we observe now.”
Nan Junpeng was very excited. He felt as if he had seen the essence of the universe, but other scientists in the entire conference room were dumbfounded. This Taoist thing has not been concluded for a long time, it is idealism.
, there is simply no tenable theory to support this view.
"We can understand the origin of the universe as the most primitive and original thing that makes up the universe, and if it is divided into two parts, we can boldly assume that it is time and space, because time and space are the most fundamental things that support the entire universe.
As for the evolution of two into three, and the evolution of three into other laws and secrets, etc., this is all we can observe~"
ps: I think the ancients had a very advanced understanding of the nature of the universe, and it seems more reasonable than the so-called creation of the world by God in the West~
