I Really Didn’t Want to Be the Savior Chapter 181: New propulsion technology and Dyson film
26, 3020 AD.
A super-large space transport ship with a capacity of 50,000 people can take off from the Everest Space Center, which is 1110 kilometers away from the Daxueshan Base, to the transportation hub space station, which is slowly coiled and flies on the far-earth space orbit. .
On this spaceship, in addition to the nearly 10,000 recruits sitting at the Daxueshan base, there are also nearly 40,000 recruits from six other large bases.
After arriving at the hub, the 50,000 recruits will join millions of other recruits from all over the world, first gathered here, and then on thousands of small and medium-sized transport ships, to coil in multiple different Fleet in hierarchical solar orbit.
At present, the All-Human Attack has nearly one million fleets and tens of millions of warships of different specifications.
After almost exhausting all the metals, semiconductors, rare metals and various elements in the solar system, humans have built tens of millions of warships of various types.
Each fleet is large or small.
The main battle fleet of the Tianxin Fleet has thousands of warships of different types.
Mothership, command flagship, main battle cruiser, destroyer frigate, assault battleship...
Other low-level fleets range from dozens to hundreds of ships.
These millions of fleets are not stationed together.
Instead, it is in the form of legions, relatively close together, distributed near the orbits of each layer in the solar system, forming a fleet defense line of a total of 12 legions in three layers.
Among them, the Uranus First District Corps, where the Tianxin Fleet is located, is stationed outside the orbit of Uranus.
"See that bunch of stars? That's the Mars II Corps, with five million spaceships and hundreds of millions of soldiers. There, that very faint light, is the Uranus III Corps, and the one we're in. The District Corps is similar in strength, with seven million spaceships and one billion soldiers.”
"At present, all the shipborne attack and defense modules of the whole army have just been replaced and installed in the year before. Nearly half of the total human population of more than 30 billion are soldiers! The military strength of mankind has reached an unprecedented level. win."
"How is it? I see that you have never had much confidence in this war, is it a little better now?"
In the command cabin, Tang Tianxin said to Chen Feng with a smile.
Looking at the human fleet filled with dazzling stars, Chen Feng had to admit that he was indeed a little enthusiastic.
He's trying himself.
Humans never give up.
Ten billion fellows.
Are you saying no clothes?
After five hundred years of development, it can even be said that it is a military force. Human beings have made too much preparation for the day of the decisive battle.
Chen Feng hadn't been in space before, and because he was pessimistic at some stage, he didn't know the current situation of the troops. Until now, he had seen it with his own eyes, and he could only experience the silent kind of light from the brilliance that was flying in the crowd. 's decision.
He smiled, "It's a little better, I hope we can fight."
"Of course, it's a pity that Ou Qinglan and Dr. Mathilde have not succeeded. Otherwise, we can increase the odds of winning."
Tang Tianxin sighed.
Chen Feng was not on a large transport ship.
As early as half an hour before the large transport ship took off, he and dozens of other Daxueshan recruits boarded Tang Tianxin's special high-speed shuttle ship and went straight to Uranus.
At this time, the other recruits were in the cramped and crowded troop compartment of the shuttle, tightly restrained by seat belts.
In the spacious command cabin, Chen Feng sat side by side with Tang Tianxin, talking about life and pointing out the stars.
The high-speed shuttle is much faster than a normal transport, quickly overtaking and overtaking a medium transport ahead.
Chen Feng turned his face away and looked at the dark blue tail flame of the transport ship that was thousands of kilometers long.
After another leap in human technology, today's aerospace technology has reached a height that Chen Feng has never seen before.
Although the main propulsion method of the aerospace vehicle is still the medium reverse thrust technology, which seems to be the same as the essence of a thousand years ago, in fact, there is a great difference.
The blue tail flame is not a real flame, but an ultra-high-speed plasma stream carrying amazing kinetic and thermal energy.
The plasma inside will be accelerated to close to the speed of light when it is just pushed out of the vent.
According to the most central law of conservation of momentum, these near-light-speed plasma streams will provide huge kinetic energy to the warship.
Every ion of mass can easily push a huge warship to speed up a lot.
This was not possible before.
The long tail flame looks amazing, but in fact, the mass of the medium consumed per hour is even less than 00 grams, and the total consumption of the medium to push the transport ship to Pluto is less than 000 grams.
Moreover, the material of this medium does not need to be specified, just collect a meteorite, a piece of space junk in the universe, or remove an old seat and throw it into an atomic transformer, it can be transformed into usable plasma liquid.
The main energy that powers the engine of the spacecraft is still electricity.
The directional movement of a large number of electrons is still the most efficient and widely used medium by humans so far.
But the way humans access electricity has fundamentally changed.
In the interior of the solar system, the Dyson film with the characteristics of space biology converts solar energy into electricity, and condenses it into a huge biological battery that can be cut into pieces and taken away.
These biological batteries with amazing energy, through a series of transformations, in which the energy is transferred to a smaller intermediate carrier, that is, a nuclear fusion battery pack, and finally the energy is transferred to each mechanized unit that needs to be powered.
When the vehicle is far away from the solar system and enters the deep space of the universe, the ubiquitous cosmic background radiation can also be absorbed by the small Dyson film when there is not enough star light to illuminate, providing the basic energy for basic power.
Theoretically, humans today have the ability to travel across the galaxy.
If it has a longer lifespan, stronger construction ability, and consumes more stellar system resources of the level of several solar systems, it can even be built suitable for a large number of people to live in, and a complete aerospace social system can be built. Humans can start coveting other large galaxies beyond the Milky Way, spreading the universe like locusts.
That's a good vision.
After half a day, the fast shuttle passed through the large entrance and exit opened on the Dyson membrane, flew over the orbit of Uranus, arrived at the starry sky where the Tianxin fleet was stationed, and docked with the command flagship.
Tang Tianxin walked into the flagship with a group of people, turned around and instructed: "Except for Chen Feng, Ding Hu and Pang De, the others will go to their respective battleships according to their original positions, and there will be veterans there to guide you to familiarize yourself with the positions. Dr. Ouyang, Scott and other technical personnel went to the laboratory in the mothership to continue scientific research and be responsible for the daily technical support of the fleet."
When the others heard the words, they quickly turned around and left.
Arriving on the fleet, Tang Tianxin seemed to have changed again, and in front of outsiders, he seemed more resolute and determined.
"Ding Hu, you go to the flagship third Morrowind column to be the captain, and Pound joins your column, so you can go too."
Brother Hu and Pound also left.
Leaving only Chen Feng, he pointed to himself, "What about me?"
"You act as my personal security officer. But most of the time I won't call you, you can arrange it freely. However, when I need you..."
She blinked and walked away.
Just returned to the fleet, she still has a lot to deal with.
Chen Feng rolled his eyes wildly, unable to complain.
This blatant support is really impressive.
Forget it, that's fine, just relax.
He simply planned to go back to his security officer's exclusive cabin to listen to the song, and by the way, communicate with the project team in the Science City.
I don't know if it was because the security officer's status was so high, or because he inadvertently granted him privileges. His lodging cabin was very large, nearly 100 square meters, with all kinds of facilities and space layout.
He even has a dedicated room for the sizeable Infinite Awakening device.
This is a battleship where space is very tight.
Sitting on the soft sofa and letting the smart assistant soak in a cup of warm atomic synthetic Dahongpao, Chen Feng glanced at the backlog of communication applications in his personal communication.
He ignored it all.
After listening to the song for two hours, especially after reviewing the song "Across the Stars", which he likes a lot, he broke away from the state of wandering in the ocean of music.
"Wei Wei, remove the vision barrier, let me look at the starry sky outside."
The living room of his lodging cabin is right on the periphery of the flagship and has the best view of the starry sky.
As the projection of the light curtain used to block his vision slowly dissipated, he saw the scene outside.
The floor-to-ceiling windows of Chen Feng's living room are facing the direction of the sun.
Looking back from here, it is difficult to distinguish the Earth, Mars, Jupiter and other planets behind with the naked eye. Only the fist-sized sun with a faint colorful halo can be seen.
The sun is not dazzling.
Originally, looking back at the sun in the cosmic starry sky will not show a colorful halo.
The reason for this is because the Dyson film shrouded between the orbits of Saturn and Uranus diffuses part of the sun's rays, and falls outside the Dyson film to the naked eye, giving it such a dazzling appearance. Colorful halo of foam flares.
Chen Feng sighed sincerely.
Dyson membranes are truly amazing technology.
Your uncle is still your uncle after all.
500 years ago, Sergey was still so strong. At that time, he proposed the complete design concept of Dyson membrane, which was digested by later generations and turned into reality more than 200 years later.
In many science fiction works around the 21st century, whether in novels or movies, the concept of Dyson sphere often appears.
But in fact, with the resources in the solar system, it is impossible for humans to have so many metal and semiconductor materials to build a Dyson sphere that is enough to cover the sun.
Even if there are enough materials, humans don't have that much time to build such massive metal structures.
The time it takes is not in years, but in 100,000 years and millions.
The genius Sergey has come up with an amazing idea.
Since metal and semiconductor materials are not allowed, and human construction capabilities are not allowed, why can't we use biological materials?
We create a membrane-like life without intelligence and let it grow into a Dyson membrane by itself!
What was originally a problem of materials science and energy science was suddenly turned by Sergey and turned into a biological problem.
The root of all ideas has returned to the most primitive level.
Plants.
Photosynthesis.
Quantum Physics.
Quantum biology.
Einstein proposed as early as the twentieth century, the wave-particle duality of light.
In the cognition of first-level to second-level civilizations, all energy in the universe seems to be divided into countless categories, but their essence is waves. At the same time, when this energy wave exhibits regular motion, it will transform again. for material.
The ultimate essence of all energy sources, such as light, radiation, heat, electricity, etc., are waves.
Light is the most easily understood form of this energy.
The earth has been born for 4.55 billion years and has been illuminated by the sun's rays for 4.55 billion years.
In the long history of the earth, the origin of life, the complex cell structure, the formation of microorganisms, plants, animals...
The plants in it are the producers.
The meaning of the so-called producer is to use sunlight as energy to complete photosynthesis to form organic matter, which is eventually used and consumed by animals and nature, and then returned to heat energy.
This heat energy is continuously passed through the atmosphere and dispersed into the universe.
Assuming that the atmosphere is an inwardly closed existence, and heat energy cannot be dispersed, then the mass of the earth must be increasing all the time.
The added part is the weight of light.
When light shines on the earth, in addition to being reflected back to the universe, it will also be absorbed by the earth, so the earth will be impacted by light pressure.
This light pressure may be extremely small, but it exists objectively.
This is the qualitative expression of the energy of light.
After the birth of plants, the appearance of chlorophyll has changed the earth's absorption efficiency of sunlight.
Photosynthesis, before humans mastered antimatter technology, was still the most efficient and incredible energy utilization method that human beings have seen.
It is full of wonders of nature.
It was born as a benevolent gift from the universe.
At the moment when the light hits the leaves, the chlorophyll is thrown into it.
The light is absorbed and transformed into a stream of pure energy.
This energy spans the limitations of time and space, annihilates at the level of light, and is born from nothingness at the level of chlorophyll. It accurately hits the unpredictable electron, knocks it away, and finally catalyzes a series of reactions. , to generate ATP.
Sergey's inspiration comes from photosynthesis, from the incredible ultra-high-efficiency quantum transformation that is enough to cross the shackles of time and space in the conversion process from light to matter.
Sergey absorbed all the knowledge of his predecessors, especially all the achievements of another great biologist Lai Wenming, and simulated and designed an artificial DNA sequence.
This is a great life that should not have naturally appeared in the universe.
More than two hundred years later, the generation of experts from the Academy of Life Sciences transformed this DNA sequence from theory into reality, and synthesized two seeds, which were carried by different aircraft to the two points corresponding to the north and south poles of the inner space of the solar system. .
These two seeds absorb light in the cosmic vacuum, germinate and grow, and grow a huge membrane that is as thin as a cicada's wings, but can withstand the solar wind and cosmic radiation.
Decades passed, and the two membranes finally completed a precise docking on the ecliptic plane, forming an olive-shaped dome that enveloped the orbit between Saturn and Uranus.
It is both mechanical and biological.
It survives in the cosmic vacuum and completes photosynthesis.
Unlike the quantum reactions that occur in a tree, the quantum reactions related to photosynthesis in Dyson films are even more amazing.
It can be understood in this way that a ray of light irradiates the Dyson film on this side of the solar orbit, and the energy that can collide with electrons may be born on the other side of the diagonal of the solar orbit.
At this moment, the energy spanned a distance of three billion kilometers, which is infinitely larger than the speed of light.
Unlike ordinary plants, the electrons that are knocked out of the Dyson membrane will not immediately hit the element to generate ATP, but will circle and gather into a huge current, which circles the Dyson membrane, and generates ATP. Finally, a huge coil that conforms to Ampere's law is formed, forming a huge electromagnetic field that is in the same orbit as the magnetic field of the north and south poles of the sun~IndoMTL.com~ This voltage that drives the flow of current is infinite in human's current understanding.
Humans use this voltage difference to build a parallel circuit on the Dyson membrane, and build a huge ultra-long-range microwave power transmission network in the space of the solar system, sending current to various planets and space bases to provide energy for mankind.
When Tang Tianxin's fast shuttle traveled to the outer orbit of Uranus, it changed direction from time to time to avoid the microwave transmission grid that was invisible to the naked eye.
On the other hand, with the spiral surging of electric current, electrons converge on the biological core of the south pole of Dyson membrane.
The flow of electrons is classified here, first returning to the original energy, and then re-condensing into matter.
The quark was born.
Atoms, neutrons, and electrons are born again.
At the south pole of the Dyson membrane, the energy directly generates hydrogen and isotopes of hydrogen, a combination of protons and electrons.
These isotopes, like hydrogen in the sun, undergo a violent fusion reaction to generate isotopes with larger atomic weights on the periodic table, and eventually grow into giant biological batteries like fruits.
The transformation of mass to energy is brought to the extreme here, and pure energy becomes real matter.
This is equivalent to directly converting solar radiation from energy to matter, and it is a new energy that can be used indefinitely.
Its output is unlimited.
The sun is immortal and eternal.
Chen Feng looked at the Dyson membrane quietly, imagining the power of electricity inside it that was beyond comprehension, and took a deep breath.
I can only sigh of greatness.
