Earth Era - Chapter 236
The so-called creatures are nothing more than some accessory bacteria that live on a tiny dust in this sea of stars. “Top” point “Xiao” said, x. It is still the same sentence, when human beings are in the age of the earth, the earth does not need the protection of human beings. Now, when human beings are in the interstellar age, the solar system also does not need human protection.
Humans… no matter what they do, they can only affect themselves.
At this moment, in front of Wei Feng is a dead solar system. It is still the same as in the past billions of years. It has eight large planets. Many of these eight large planets have their own satellites. In addition, there are countless asteroids, comets, dwarf planets here… Everything is the same except for one point.
There are no traces of living beings here.
“No matter what stage we humans have reached, we humans are always insignificant compared to this universe.” Wei Feng sighed, “This, this is really a desperate thing.”
Ye Luo didn’t speak, but the three-dimensional projection was quietly turned off by Ye Luo.
At this moment, Wei Feng no longer has any worries about the war situation in the solar system, and is replaced by a deep sadness. No, it is not appropriate to use sadness to describe this kind of mood, it is more suitable to use words such as “confused” or “desperate”.
Before Wei Feng walked to the porthole, he once again fell into contemplation in front of the endless sea of stars.
“Ye Luo, you say, we humans, no, what is the meaning of all intelligent life in this universe? What does it mean for this universe?”
“I can’t answer your question, Captain.” Ye Luo replied, “There is no answer to this question stored in my database.”
Wei Feng nodded. He didn’t speak any more. a long time. Wei Feng sighed. Said: “I should go to hibernate, Ye Luo, see you in ten years.”
“Good captain.” Ye Luo responded. So Wei Feng once again made some relevant preparations and then lay down in the hibernation cabin. Before he lost consciousness, a thought flashed through Wei Feng’s mind: “It’s boring, it’s boring.”
The Xinghai spacecraft was already halfway through its voyage. At this moment, Wei Feng was less than 1.2 light-years away from Proxima Centauri, Alpha Centauri c. It is still about 1.4 light-years away from Alpha Centauri a and b.
This means that after one hundred and twenty years, Wei Feng will truly reach the Nanmen two galaxies. In fact, the position of Wei Feng at this moment is already close to the Oort cloud region of the Nanmen II galaxy.
Just like the solar system, in the early days of its birth, some remnants of star-making were also expelled to the edge of the galaxy, and eventually formed a weak material belt that was extremely far away from the stars. The Oort Cloud of the galaxy.
Wei Feng knew that it was possible to exchange Oort cloud material between different stars. Because the Oort cloud is so far away from the star. The gravitational influence of local stars on them is too weak, which can easily cause them to leave the local system under certain accidental conditions. into another star system. That is to say, the Oort cloud matter of the solar system may enter the Nanmen II galaxy, and the Oort cloud matter of the Nanmen II galaxy may also enter the solar system.
Perhaps as early as tens of millions or even billions of years ago, there was such a material that escaped the gravitational control of the Nanmen II galaxy and entered the solar system, and entered the solar system under the gravitational disturbance of the inner planets, and Finally hit the earth. Then in the long evolution, the substances that make it up eventually merge with the substances on the earth and can no longer be separated. They may eventually become the food, drinking water, and tools used by humans on the earth. The ecological cycles of the earth, but no one can tell them apart.
This is the journey of matter on the interstellar scale, and their journeys are calculated in millions or even hundreds of millions of years, but no one will know these things, and no one will care about them.
The evolution process that belongs to the nature of the universe is quietly going on in places that humans or other intelligent life cannot see, and it has never stopped.
During the next 30 years of long journey, Wei Feng woke up four times intermittently. It was originally scheduled to wake up every ten years, but in the middle of it, Wei Feng was awakened again urgently. Because a key module in the Xinghai spacecraft suffered a serious failure again, this time the failure caused the entire Xinghai spacecraft to almost lose its ability to slow down. But thanks to Weifeng’s quick and proper disposal, catastrophic consequences were avoided.
At this moment, the distance to Proxima Centauri is less than one light-year away. Wei Feng woke up from his slumber once again, and the interior of the Xinghai spacecraft once again regained light and warmth.
“I have three things to report to you.” Ye Luo said to Wei Feng, “The first thing is that five years ago, I observed an irregular interstellar rock with a diameter of about one meter. The method shattered it and captured some fragments of the material that made it up.”
“Oh, is that so?” Wei Feng said, “It is very unlikely that we can encounter macroscopic matter in the empty universe between stars. Has the preliminary analysis concluded about it?”
“Yes, I have conducted a preliminary analysis on it, and the results show that it has a material composition that is very different from the solar system, which indicates that it does not come from the solar system. According to my speculation, it should come from the Nanmen two galaxies. .”
“Is there any evidence?” Wei Feng asked.
“There is evidence, but it’s not solid enough.” Ye Luo said, “We have only roughly speculated about the composition of matter in the Nanmen II galaxies through instruments such as spectrometers. According to my material analysis of this rock, I confirm that the physical similarity between the two is as high as eighty-nine percent.”
Wei Feng nodded: “Then there is basically no doubt. This stone can basically be determined to be from the Nanmen Second Galaxy. Well, when you found him, what were his motion parameters?”
“It has different motion parameters relative to different reference systems. Here, I choose the Nanmen II galaxy as the reference. When I found it, it was moving along the center of the circle with the mass particle of the Nanmen II galaxy as the center, with a radius of The tangent to the circle at 1.08 light-years runs parabolically. It is leaving the South Gate II galaxy. As for the end of its journey…I made a simulation, Captain, you can take a look.”
Ye Luo once again projected a three-dimensional image, so Wei Feng saw two stars revolving around each other at extremely close positions, and a third star revolving around the two stars at a distance from them . Further out there is a small dot that is orbiting the three stars. But its orbit is getting flatter and flatter, the distance between the far end of the orbit and the core particle is getting farther and farther, and the near end is getting closer.
Wei Feng looked at it for a while, and then said, “Its orbit seems to indicate that, one day in the future, it will break free from the gravity of Nanmen Ersansanxing and escape into interstellar space.”
“Yes, if it is no longer affected by other factors during its operation, after about 200 million years, it will leave the Nanmen Two Galaxy, and this…”
Under Ye Luo’s manipulation, the small black dot in the three-dimensional projection pulled out a long line and extended to another star next to it.
“…It will escape from the Nanmen 2 galaxies and finally enter the gravitational range of the sun. The time is too long, and I can’t accurately predict its future orbit, but I think it has 80% The probability of hitting the sun.” Ye Luo said, “This means that by calculating the orbit of this interstellar rock, we have basically confirmed that there is indeed a mutual exchange of matter between stars, and The detailed mechanism of this matter has been determined. This is extremely important for us to study the solar system, no, not only the solar system, but also to study the early evolution mechanism of the star system and the interaction between different stars.”
This matter can indeed be said to be an extremely important discovery, but Wei Feng feels a little lack of interest in this matter: “If I can make a paper on this and publish it, I may get a paper issued by the Ministry of Scientific Research. A trophy for me in recognition of my contribution to this. But…what’s the point of that?”
Wei Feng shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and then said: “Keep these substances and all the observation and research data sealed for future research.”
“Okay Captain, I will keep them properly.” Ye Luo replied.
“By the way~www.mtlnovel.com~ Ye Luo, didn’t you say there are three things to report to me? This is the first thing, so what about the second thing?”
Ye Luo was silent for a while, and then said: “That’s it, during this period of time, I observed a total of seven strong flashes from the direction of the solar system. Compared with the past, the frequency of the flashes has not decreased, but some Raised. This seems to mean that the wars that are taking place in the solar system have not stopped, but have intensified.”
“This war has been fought for decades.” Wei Feng said with some emotion, the expression on his face quickly turned into a wry smile, “This seems to confirm a little from the side, that is the foundation of our human civilization. It’s really very deep… Without a deep foundation, I’m afraid it won’t be able to support such a long war.”
“But the second thing I want to report to you is not this thing.” Ye Luo said.
“Oh?” Wei Feng expressed his doubts in one word.
“The second thing is… I not only observed intense flashes in the solar system, I also observed some similar intense flashes in the Nanmen two galaxies.” (To be continued…)
