The U.S. got the artificial intelligence it wanted, and the dispute with the island countries has been resolved and normal.

The storm in the world is fading.

The island country still fights against Russia in the air, but it is not as fierce as it started. The United States has acted a lot less and seems to be fully preparing for the next election issue.

All three countries have artificial intelligence. They all feel the terrible nature of artificial intelligence. They have not publicized it and want to keep a low profile.

The island country and the United States still maintain the original relationship, and in order to fight against Russia, a military exercise was deliberately held.It seems that the contradiction a while ago has never happened.

Only the person involved knows that the two parties have already faced each other at a time.

Now the incident slowly subsides, and the world is calm again.

Flying Ant Space Center.

The Goddess is ready.

In the past two months of training, Xiaoyu and Zhao Min's space training have been completed, and they have suffered a lot.

Today is the day of space travel.

At this time, Xiao Yu and Zhao Min were already wearing space suits, their bodies were covered, only one head was exposed.

"Drink this."

Chen Mo took two test tubes of blue liquid from Mo Nui and gave them to Zhao Min and Xiao Yu.

"what is this?"

The two looked at the liquid in Chen Mo's hand strangely, like some kind of oral liquid, and there was nothing special about it.

"A radiation-preventing agent to prevent genetic mutations that may occur in the human body due to space radiation." Chen Mo explained.

After all, there is radiation in space. Long-term activities in space will cause genetic mutations, which is not good for the human body.In order to reduce this problem, Chen Mo found this kind of anti-radiation medicine from the Science and Technology Library.

The medicinal effect is one week, and it will be produced by Haixing Company for use by astronauts and high-radiation workers.

Zhao Min and Xiao Yu didn't think much, and took the medicine and drank it.

This was the first time Xiao Yu and Zhao Min went to space. They were a little nervous. Fortunately, Chen Mo felt a little safe when he was by his side.

"Let's go."

Chen Mo took the two and walked towards the Goddess.Under the attention of ground personnel, a strong wind was rolled up on the airport, and the Goddess slowly floated into the sky and disappeared into the distant sky.

In the far and unknown depths of the universe, a bright spot shuttles from far to near, flying fast.

The spacecraft slowly flew closer, revealing its true colors.

The ferocious spacecraft, the edges and corners of the surface, are covered with various weapons.

In the cabin of the spacecraft, there are pink creatures, about three meters high, with a lizard-like head, closed eyes, synthetic finger-length slits, bulging bulges, no ears, and finger-long antennae on the head. .

Inside the transparent dormant chamber, you can see the pink body of an unknown creature, the skin is as soft as an octopus, covered with peculiar lines, the legs are hideous scales, and the back is a blood-red tail, about two meters long. , Overgrown with various spikes.

Inside the cabin, a strange and sharp sound suddenly sounded, which was the translation.

"Akao Ephemeris, at 42:64:89 on 21st 74th, 204756, the Fugitive 20981 spacecraft has entered the Milky Way. The 5142th destination, Orion, is expected to arrive in 5 years. No habitable star has been found... "

Just after the report was completed, a sharp alarm sounded. In an instant, the dormant compartments in the spaceship control room were all opened, and the sleeping pink creature suddenly opened its eyes, and panic appeared in the red eyes.

"The most advanced alarm, the most advanced alarm, the meteorite stream appeared at coordinates A5247, S1547, X24567, and the weapon system was activated after 5 seconds of impact."

"Chirp..."

The tentacles on the Akao creature's head swayed, and strange sound waves were emitted from its mouth.

The entire control room panicked.

The weapon system of the spacecraft has been activated, all aimed at the direction of the meteorite.

boom!!!

A bunch of particle beams flew toward the meteorite stream, and the hit meteorites instantly exploded, turning into smaller fragments and flying towards all directions.

"Alarm, alarm, hull damage."

"Alert, the hull is damaged, please leave the spacecraft immediately, please leave the spacecraft immediately."

Akao creature heard the alarm, his eyes were desperate.

boom!

The impact of the big meteorite instantly exploded the spacecraft that had been wandering for many years in the universe, and countless fragments and spacecraft wreckage shot in all directions.

The largest fragment, along with the meteor shower, is lasing towards Orion.

And on the spiral arm of Orion in the direction of the debris, the sun still exudes the eternal light, and the blue earth is still moving forward on its own.

"it's beautiful."

On the Goddess, Xiao Yu leaned by the window, looking at the blue planet outside, with a little excited face.Next to her is Zhao Min, with a complicated expression.

The two of them kept their eyes on the earth like two children who had never seen the world.

The blue and fluorescent planet in front of them is the planet they live in.Can't see any creatures, their huge corporate headquarters is so small that they can't be seen at all.

How big is the field of vision, how broad the mind is.

At this moment, they really felt that human beings are smaller than the dust in the universe, and to the unchanging universe, they are just fleeting visitors.

People who are mentally unstable will experience this insignificance firsthand, and they may lose their fighting spirit directly.

Seeing Xiao Yu who was only excited, Zhao Min was a little envious.Someone is caring, don't think too much, sometimes it's good.

Chen Mo next to him was calm.

She only understood now that Chen Mo faced his fighting spirit to challenge the universe.

I'm afraid this man will not be willing to disappear into the universe like a germ.

Chen Mo seemed to see Zhao Min's thoughts, smiled and stretched out his hand to pat her back, and touched Xiao Yu's head: "It looks good? Is it the galaxy over there, or the earth?"

"Then do you think Mo Girl is good-looking or Sister Zhao Min is good-looking?" Xiao Yu asked jokingly.

Zhao Min almost laughed when he heard this question. This rhetorical question was really interesting.

"Well, each has its own merits, and they all look good." Chen Mo said with a dry smile.

"You said, in this universe, are there really other creatures, extraterrestrial civilizations." After Xiao Yu returned to God, he looked at the earth outside the window with some emotion.

"Let the great scientist answer you."

Zhao Min and Xiao Yu both looked at Chen Mo, waiting for his answer.

"This question is similar to deep-sea bacteria. The bacteria living in small pits deep in the trench ask if there are other bacteria outside." Chen Mo said with emotion: "There must be, but they are limited to the deep sea."

"But is there a Fermi paradox? Suppose there are aliens, millions of years earlier than us, and cosmic travel must have discovered us. But we have not found aliens appearing, nor have they found true aliens. Evidence of existence, is there no aliens?"

"Okay, even these theories are known." Chen Mo smiled.

"I just heard of it." Xiao Yu said.

"This paradox is a paradox. In fact, in Liu Cixin's "Three-Body", a possible explanation for Fermi's paradox is based on the law of the dark forest. The effect is that alien civilizations deliberately hide themselves from others. Alien civilization is discovered, so as not to invite the cleanup of higher civilization.

But it's only a possibility. Not all civilizations will hide from each other. Humans launched Voyager 1 to the outside world.

There are many other possibilities to explain the Fermi paradox.

Just like the deep-sea bacteria I mentioned earlier, the Fermi paradox is equivalent to deep-sea bacteria. Ask, are there other organisms outside?If so, why haven't they been found yet?Or they can find evidence of our existence.

If they didn't find us, did we not exist?

In fact, there is a problem of discovery time span.Millions of years are very long for mankind and very short for the universe.

Millions of years ago, when we were just a pool of liquid.Assuming that the bacteria on the bottom of the sea can only live for two days, how many generations will it have to pass on before it can be discovered by us?

Maybe a few decades later, during a deep-sea scientific exploration, humans will discover that deep-sea colony, and then a few decades later, they will discover the other second and third colonies?The time to find those colonies is early or late.

The same question applies to us. Suppose we are a certain colony in the deep ocean of the universe, and the alien’s journey of exploration is not yet its turn to discover us?After all, space travel is much more dangerous than deep sea exploration, and much wider than the sea.

Of course, you can also assume that the creatures in the universe appeared at the same time. We are the fastest generation of civilization. After a few million years, we discover other civilizations in the universe. No matter which result, scientific inference, alien life exists. .

But in the universe, what is the probability that we are the first generation of cosmic civilization?This probability is equivalent to that all creatures on the earth think they are the first generation of civilization.The probability exists, but this probability is estimated to be lower than the probability of the penguin game."

Upon hearing the last ridicule, Xiao Yu and Zhao Min couldn't help laughing.

"I think it should be a bit more likely than the penguin game draw." Zhao Min joked.

"It's complicated, but fortunately I'm stupid, so I don't have to think about it so much." Xiao Yu said.

She roughly understands the meaning of Chen Mo's explanation. As for thinking carefully, it is not within her scope of consideration.

"Are you afraid that one day aliens will discover our'colony', just like humans grabbing specimens, grab you as a specimen for research?" Zhao Min asked.

"Then I will be determined to be the deadly superbug."

"If we are discovered by aliens, won't we directly destroy us like the three-body description?" Xiao Yu asked curiously.

"Maybe, but it may not. When civilizations of the same level, or two species civilizations are close, the law of the dark forest may apply. For example, the American Indians were slaughtered and exterminated during the great voyage.

But for civilizations of the same level, or civilizations close to ours, the probability that the universe will explore us is too small, and the time span and distance span are too long.For civilizations of the same level as ours, unless they find a habitat like a trisomy, it is impossible for the whole clan to exterminate us.

Civilization explorations far higher than our civilization level discover us, such as exploring and researching in Africa, and discovering a new species of ants in the rainforest. Will we burn the ant nest in a fire?Obviously not.Grab a few at most to study, study, or watch.

If our human wisdom and civilization have not reached their level, they will not threaten their interests, and our living environment is of no value to them, the dark forest law may fail.If we are interested in them, then you can refer to the animals in the zoo."

Chen Mo looked at the depths of the starry sky and said faintly.

The weak and the strong, no matter what kind of civilization, it is applicable. That is the essence of the universe.
