Chapter 11 Strange spaceship!

"Hello everyone, I am Alpha Rimbaud, from the Tesla Institute."

The speaker on the stage was a young guy with a somewhat boyish face, just in his early 20s. Seeing so many people on stage, he was a bit timid and looked a bit nervous.

"Today, I want to announce my research results, about the Noah spacecraft vacuum zero-point energy, quantum rise and fall and energy conservation research ..."

This young man may be a bit inexperienced, as soon as he came up, he talked a lot about quantum theory, making people confused.

He kept playing the PowerPoint, changing various calculus formulas, and said a lot of things that only physicists can understand, and others were simply confused.

However, the people at the bottom are still very well cultivated, they don't understand but still sit and quietly watch the new star of the scientific world {pretending to be a pussy}.

When Rimbaud finished speaking, there was a moment of silence below, surprisingly, there were few people asking him questions.

"Uh ... does everyone have anything to ask?" He felt as if the atmosphere was a bit problematic and could only stand awkwardly on the stage.

The seasoned Dr. Felix certainly knew what mistake Rimbaud had made, and a great scientist still had to try to take care of the juniors in the institute. Although Felix had read Rimbaud's paper a long time ago.

He stood up from his position and asked encouragingly, "Mr. Rimbaud, can you tell us how you found this problem? Please speak as straightforwardly as possible."

Seeming to talk about what Rimbaud was most proud of, his expression began to become confident. "As you know, the mass of Noah's ship is conserved, no matter how much stuff is loaded inside and weighed from the outside, its mass remains the same."

"This is amazing and a fact, otherwise, we could not propel something with a mass of several hundred million tons, even if it is a billion tons equivalent nuclear bomb."

"Yes, indeed." The people at the bottom nodded, which has been something many scientists do not understand.

"We have reason to think that the alien civilization has hidden this mass in a way that we don't know, maybe space science or some other technology ... but this mass is not gone, it is hidden because the people inside us are still alive and this part of the mass is real and not lost."

"Then, I got an idea, since this ship is so amazing, is energy conserved? Does the law of conservation of energy apply to this spaceship?"

"The mass of the spaceship is constant at 1.03 million tons, and we have packed almost billions of tons in it, so does that lead to energy non-conservation?" Rimbaud said from the stage.

"Dr. Rimbaud, can you please explain why loading something in the spaceship will lead to energy non-conservation?" Someone asked, and they began to feel curious about Rimbaud's research.

Dr. Rimbaud immediately explained, "According to the formula of kinetic energy under macroscopic low-speed conditions: e={1/2}mv^2, the kinetic energy of an object, which is proportional to its mass, is proportional to the square of its velocity, so the question arises, inside the spaceship, do we, the billions of tons of mass, have kinetic energy or not?"

"As we all know, the speed of our spaceship is around 28km/s, so do we, the people inside the spaceship, have the same speed?"

"If we have no speed, then, the kinetic energy is zero and energy remains conserved."

"If, we have the same speed as the spaceship, then where does the kinetic energy come from for billions of tons of matter, at such a high speed? Who gives us the kinetic energy?

Our nuclear or chemical engines can't provide such high kinetic energy, did all this energy come out of thin air? Is energy really conserved in the ship?"

In a flurry of questions, the crowd pondered, tensed, and panicked. The question is obvious and arguably very superficial. If something inside the ship has kinetic energy, then where does the energy come from?

Could it be that the theorem of conservation of energy was overturned at this moment?

A young scientist at the age of 22, at this moment, began to challenge the most classic theorem in physics - the conservation of energy theorem!

Energy neither arises nor disappears out of thin air, it only transforms from one form to another, or transfers from one object to other objects, while the total amount of energy remains the same.

The law of conservation of energy is one of the universal fundamental laws of nature, also known as the first law of thermodynamics, and is the foundation of the entire scientific edifice.

If he succeeds, then the scientific edifice will fall down, the whole history of science will be rewritten, all science and technology will become unreliable, and a large number of papers will be reduced to waste paper.

The human civilization built in this science and technology edifice will become ruins ...

All the faces here are pale, an incomparable fear appears in the heart. The law of conservation of energy, which has been used since childhood, if it is really wrong, then what will happen?

Humans simply can not imagine ...

The law of conservation of energy can never be overturned!

"So what about what's inside our spaceship, what's the speed? Is it zero? Or does it have the same speed as the spaceship?" A scientist at the bottom asked, his tone a little shaky, obviously extremely unsettled inside.

"I'm sorry ... after testing, our speed is the same as the ship." Rimbaud said.

"At first I was also very shocked that the energy was not conserved?! Of course I believe in the law of non-conservation of energy like everyone else ... but we are bound to find an explanation for this phenomenon,.

Since the kinetic energy of the matter inside the ship can't be given by the nuclear engine, either, the energy is generated out of thin air, or, an unknown, powerful energy source that we haven't discovered, gives this part of kinetic energy."

The people at the bottom listened and instantly clamored, people were talking, if the energy remained constant, people would be easy to accept, energy conservation is good ah ... Rimbaud's words have aroused the curiosity of many people, where did this part of the energy come from? What is that powerful energy source in the end?

Rimbaud laid out a bunch of facts to prove his point, "I think there is a factual basis for the fact that our internal speed is consistent with the outside of the ship.

First, we walked from the interior of the ship to the exterior without creating relative motion to the ship, indicating that our speed, both in magnitude and direction, remained highly consistent with the ship."

"If our speed was zero, as soon as we walked to the outside of the ship, we would have been left behind instantly because of the inconsistent speed. But that didn't happen, so our speed was in line with the airship."

"Of course, I also did another experiment, according to the relativistic effect, objects with speed time flow will slow down, that is, the clock slow effect. I put two cesium atomic clocks inside and outside the spaceship at the same time, and after a period of time, I found that the atomic clocks showed the exact same time.

This means that the speed inside and outside the spaceship is the same, and we are inside the spaceship and subject to the relativistic effect."

Many people nodded, and two facts like this showed that the matter inside did possess speed and was the same as the spaceship.

"In that case, Dr. Rimbaud, where does the kinetic energy possessed by the objects inside the spaceship come from?" One scientist couldn't help but ask.

"I think that our kinetic energy comes from - vacuum zero-point energy. We borrowed the energy from the vacuum using quantum rise and fall ..."

Quantum rise and fall means that the uncertainty principle allows a small amount of energy to be randomly generated in an all-empty space {pure space}, provided that the energy reverts to disappearance in a short period of time. The greater the amount of energy produced, the shorter the time the energy exists, and vice versa.

Quantum ups and downs may seem to violate the law of conservation of energy, but such ups and downs happen anywhere in space, and the energy exists for a very short time, and when the moment is up, it has to disappear, so on a large scale, the law of conservation of energy is not broken.

"But now, this part of the energy becomes the kinetic energy of people, the energy seems to be generated for no reason, but its essence, from the vacuum zero-point energy ..."

Those who can't understand don't understand at all, but those who can understand suddenly exclaim, what a god-like technology!
