Wandering Spaceship in Deep Space Chapter 297: Letter from the Golden Sun
Seven years ago.
Gliese 581, an unpredictable star, on a rocky planet with a race named humans, is in full swing developing a huge spaceship named "Kunlun Mountain", for its own voyage plan, Make the final preparations.
Everyone is working hard for their goals...
On this day, Professor Li Zhi, who is in charge of astronomical observations, suddenly detected an unusual fluctuation.
It was a burst of radio waves with a certain pattern, very weak, but continuous.
He frowned and checked, and he doubted whether this wave was a pulse fragment of a neutron star. In fact, most of the signals detected by the observatory are emitted by these neutron stars or very distant supernovae. These signals do not have much meaning. .
After a while, this series of pulse bands appeared again, and the same pattern!
Staring at the screen for a long time, suddenly, Professor Li realized something, and shouted at his assistant: "Hurry up and record it all!"
"Retrieve the source of the signal!"
In order to cultivate the public's interest in foreign exploration, astronomy, including cosmology, has been a key project supported by the new civilization, and there are many students internship here.
The search for signals from aliens, including signals from earth’s civilization, is the top priority.
Although...there has been no very good progress. It is estimated that the real alien civilization has long since stopped using electromagnetic waves for communication.
These young students carefully pondered this burst of radio waves. Because of the very weak signal, there are a lot of missing signals, but there are faint laws.
"It's too regular!"
"It's a bunch of signals, the real signal comes from civilization!"
"Don't get excited, try to decipher it."
Professor Li has a premonition, which is absolutely remarkable.
Immediately after, he heard that the observation room next door was also starting to revel. Obviously, both sides had a common discovery.
"Here again! Another series of signals have appeared!" a boy exclaimed.
I saw a lot of information codes detected by the radio telescope!
More and more, more and more, for several hours!
This time it’s not like the original one, only a few sentences, but a whole...
103 trillion!
One hundred and three trillion!
A few hours later, the supercomputer was analyzing and deciphering the data just detected. Professor Li knocked on the door of the next room with excitement, and pretended to say calmly: "Old Guo, it seems to be a great thing. ."
"How about it. Did you find out? Is it a signal from earth civilization? Or an alien civilization? I am more interested in signals from alien civilization."
Lao Guo was also flushed, and said enthusiastically, “No, it’s definitely not earth civilization, because it’s not in the same direction at all. It’s not a thousand percent... I suspect that it’s humans on the golden sun. Send us Signal."
"Golden Sun?" Professor Li was taken aback, and then he patted his head, almost forgetting the incident.
"Yes! This string of signals is likely to come from-Captain Star!"
This report was quickly passed back to the captain's room. Because it uses a traditional remote error correction code, it is easy to decipher.
When I heard about this, even Zhang Yuan was taken aback, and soon became excited.
"The humans of the Golden Sun have also arrived smoothly...No, theoretically they should arrive faster than us."
"Hold an emergency meeting!"
At the same time, he issued a few more orders.
"Adjust the astronomical observation equipment to the maximum, and don't miss any piece of information."
"Call the reporters here."
……
Ten minutes later, the meeting room was already full of people, everyone was talking excitedly, and the air was full of fanaticism.
Especially this guy Li Zhendong, he was so excited, there are also a group of physicists who are frantically discussing the so-called "gravitons" and "cosmic strings" and other strange words.
In short, this news can be said to be the best news about humanity itself for nearly a century!
Speaking of which, the branch of the Golden Sun actually does not belong to the earth civilization itself, but is another brand new civilization.
But when I think of the infinite universe, in the distant Captain Star, there is another active and energetic branch of humanity, is there something more worth looking forward to, and more worth celebrating in the world?
Zhang Yuan also didn't sell it, and directly played the translated letter on the screen.
"...Dear Earth Age, hello, this is the Golden Sun. Repeat for the seventh time."
"...Dear Earth Age, hello, this is the Golden Sun. Repeat for the eighth time."
……
"...Dear Earth Age, hello, this is the Golden Sun, repeat the 106th time."
This sentence has been repeated 107 times, which made everyone here a little impatient. After Professor Li of Astronomy explained it, everyone was quiet again.
The reason is that ultra-long-distance electromagnetic wave communication costs a lot of money, and it is impossible to notify the other party that we are going to send the message in advance, so we must give the other party a preparation time. Only this kind of repetitive information can arouse the other's attention.
Otherwise, this piece of information is likely to be ignored and never received again.
"So that's it." Ye Kaifu, who was sitting underneath, nodded.
After repeating it 107 times, I finally got to the topic.
"Earth Age colleagues~IndoMTL.com~Hello, this is Captain Star, the branch represented by the Golden Sun spacecraft. I am then Captain Xu Peng."
"Our civilization has been developed here for 544 years. It is necessary and obliged to report the 500-year history to you of the Earth Age, so as to better plan your future."
The tone was heavy, everyone couldn't help holding their breath.
The two civilizations adopted almost the same strategy, that is, with the "new civilization history" as the guiding ideology, but there will be some differences in the details of the policies.
Because the histories of the two civilizations are different. The Earth Age has encountered many stories, and the Golden Sun must have encountered different stories.
Due to the different development history, the ideology of the people, and the culture of the entire society will be very different.
This is the complexity of a civilization. Even if the two sides are all humans and are of the same origin, they will still be very different.
A series of small problems appeared during the development of the Golden Sun.
