Light Speed Obstacle
But now? Aliens came to our door to communicate with us, and humans welcomed us generously at our doorstep!
This is the change of the times, the change of human vision and strength...
Just as the two of them were thinking about the future, a notification sound suddenly sounded in their ears, "Dear citizens of the new human civilization, Mr. Zhang Yuan, hello, the standard room at the Starry Sky Port you have reserved has entered the queue, and the remaining rooms are available for selection. There are 132 more rooms."
This voice surprised Zhang Yuan a little bit, because there are many tourists in the port and the rooms are limited, usually they have to wait in line for several months.
If they don't get in line, they have to return to the surface to live.
Unexpectedly, the reservation was made on the last day of the holiday, which was a small surprise for the two of them.
"We can sleep here today! Which room do you want to sleep in, low gravity, no gravity, or normal gravity?"
Lin Xuanxuan thought for a while, "Of course it's normal gravity! Why sleep without gravity? It's frightening and I always have nightmares..."
Zhang Yuan stared at the screen for a long time and suddenly said: "It's so unsentimental! I also want to sleep in a room with a 'golden section gravity environment', and there happens to be the last one."
"The golden section?"
"It is said that in this gravity environment, people's blood circulation is very smooth and the body will be very light. Young boys and girls like it very much, haha... This kind of room is very difficult to book."
Lin Xuanxuan rolled her eyes, and was a little curious about what the so-called "golden section gravity environment" was...
A good night is coming soon...
The next day, everyone started normal work.
At six o'clock in the morning, a large group of people were already waiting eagerly at the observatory. It was not until nine o'clock in the morning that people finally discovered traces of the Toss Civilization's curvature spacecraft. It was a quite large spacecraft, estimated to carry about 1 million people. The population of is sailing at a speed of 0.1c.
If it weren't for the strong light emitted by this spacecraft, ordinary radar would really not be able to lock on to this spacecraft.
"Conventional radars must be updated! Such a large spacecraft still cannot be locked. What will happen if there is a war in the future?" Several generals were there, very dissatisfied with the current military equipment.
It wasn't until about six million kilometers away from the starry sky port that the spaceship stopped abruptly, as if there was no slowing down in the middle.
Yes, curvature sailing is such a magical way of sailing.
Of course, there are limitations to sailing with curvature. The curvature engine has strict requirements on space curvature. There is no way to sail in a place with high gravity, otherwise it may cause a certain amount of damage to the engine itself. A super strong gravitational wave tore the entire spacecraft apart!
Therefore, in order not to lose mobility, the spaceship still needs to be equipped with conventional navigation means.
With a slight vibration, the large mothership of the Toth civilization docked on the starry sky port, and the bright indicator lights lit up.
"Welcome, welcome, dear friends!" Ms. Captain took the lead in sending her condolences.
People cheered loudly for the arrival of these old friends and prepared a pretty good ecological environment for them.
The reason why the Toss civilization is willing to come here on its own initiative, and brought such a large number of people, on the one hand, is for scientific and technological exchanges, such as some experience exchanges in curvature technology, telling about past friendships, cultural exchanges, military exchanges, etc. .
On the other hand, it is mainly to seek optical perception.
Yes, optical perception!
Without optical perception, the technology tree of the Toth civilization is too deformed, and there is also competition between the fourth-level civilizations. The people of Toth must make up for this defect in order to be able to develop better.
Zhang Yuan, as an expert in extra perception, naturally has a high status and stands at the forefront of the welcoming team.
Soon, the leaders of the two sides came into contact with each other, sympathized with each other, and told about their historical origins, historical friendship, etc., which sounded quite boring. It's really boring, and it's a necessary process.
Then start arranging people-to-people exchanges and meetings of scientists.
Of the 100 million human population, more than 60 million are new generations, and it is the first time for them to see this alien civilization that is closely related to human beings.
The combination of large salamander and wolf dog is very interesting. These dogs were also wearing power armor. Seeing so many humans, they were so curious that they would die, barking "oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo".
According to the thinking of many young people, if the other party brings a million people over like this, it is indeed true that the relationship has reached a certain level.
Since the relationship between the governments is good, there will naturally be no problems among the people.
It is definitely a very deep friendship to break through the fourth-level civilization together. In the Milky Way, how many third-level civilizations can become the fourth-level civilization?
Only some elderly people can understand the small conflicts that have happened in the past. Are they considered conflicts? In the face of the final result, it is definitely not a contradiction!
Soon, many small spacecrafts began to compete in terms of speed. Coupled with the space weapons tour, some military fans were very excited.
It is very interesting to observe these sub-light-speed spacecraft from the surface, and you will find that their shapes are stretched into "long noodles". Whoever has longer noodles will fly faster.
In fact, it is not the deformation of the spacecraft, nor the relativistic effect, but the observation disorder of the spacecraft's image due to the excessive speed.
As for the military level, the battle at sub-light speed is also different from conventional military warfare. For example, the super-high-speed curvature missile has become a big killer, and how to make a sharp turn in the curvature navigation has become a super problem.
The two sides can jointly study new content in this area, compete with each other, and practice exercises. Having a competitor will definitely develop much faster than alone.
"...Hello, new human friends. As for the difficulties in curvature technology, there are actually many, many more. The first level is about a series of problems caused by breaking through the speed of light, referred to as the light barrier."
"First of all, after breaking through the light barrier, our spacecraft is faster than photons. How should we communicate with each other? Whether it is conventional flight or cellular linkage between military spacecraft, communication is crucial. important!"
"In addition, after breaking through the light barrier, it will also cause great confusion in the observation picture. The faster the speed, the faster the picture will be confused. It is definitely unsafe to fly around with your eyes closed... We must find a suitable algorithm... …"
The one speaking on the stage was Tokalia Antongding, a great scientist of the Toth civilization. What he said was actually not complicated, and almost everyone could understand it. This is also a part of mutual communication.
After a spacecraft catches up with its own photons, various weird phenomena will occur.
If you observe it from the front of the spaceship, you will find that it...is actually "retreating"!
If you observe it from directly behind the spacecraft, you will find that the image it creates is still at the speed of light, and there is no "super-light speed" at all!
If you observe it from the side of the spacecraft, it is even more strange. It becomes like a ramen noodles, and then this ramen noodles is disconnected from the middle and divided into two spaceships flying in opposite directions. Of course, these spaceships are just images.
All in all, these strange situations will become communication difficulties.
