Super technology leader
Chapter 234 Navigator's Consciousness (Two in One)
I didn't think it at first, but then Tang Chao felt how unwise he was to attend this meeting.
Because of the unknown detectors, or directly about the alien detectors, the high-level meeting invited experts from various fields to make many assumptions that are as wide as the edge of the universe. The most talked about assumptions are waiting for real aliens. What should humans do afterwards.
In other words, how should Tianxia deal with it.
Experts divide the assumed extraterrestrial civilization into nine categories, namely lawful good, neutral good, chaotic good, lawful neutral, total neutral, chaotic neutral, lawful evil, neutral evil, and chaotic evil.
After hearing this, Tang Chao looked dumbfounded.
Good guy, are you playing the camp Jiugongge?
But when you think about it, it's actually the same, that's what it means.
But this time they were destined to fight the air, because they almost thought of all the situations, but they didn't expect that the aliens who came might be a group of Tie Han.
But in general, no one would have thought that the aliens were Tiehanhan, or the kind of Tiehanhan all members.
After all, it can develop to the level of civilization that can launch probes into the solar system. How can it be stupid than humans in the solar system... right?
Tang Chao can tell everyone the truth: yes.
Of course, there is still a difference between stupid and nasty criticism.
"Xiao Tang, what do you think?"
"Ah, yes."
"What's it?"
"Uh, what did you ask?" Tang Chao looked at the old scientist sitting next to him embarrassedly.
"I mean the proposal just now. We must be prepared for battle and cannot sit still." The old scientist said again.
Tang Chao understood, and he was really talking about defense and counterattack just now.
Tianxia is very familiar with this matter, and it has been doing this since the founding of the People’s Republic of China.
The issue of security must not be left to others, nor should expectations be placed on the good and evil of others.
Even if human beings have limited abilities, they cannot completely open the door to allow aliens to enter and exit.
The discussion in the conference room just now talked about the deployment of weapons in space.
Although the "Outer Space Treaty" says very clearly that it restricts the militarization of space, Meriken has blatantly established a space army, and even has to convert two second-level space shuttles into space fighters. This is no longer taking the Outer Space Treaty seriously.
Meriken can do that, and Tianxia can do that naturally, but before the arrival of aliens is certain, the United Nations will not allow countries to develop space weapons.
Because if the aliens do not come, humans are likely to aim those super weapons at the earth and at other countries on the earth.
Don't say it's impossible, because according to the history of human warfare, this is definitely something that will happen.
However, if space weapons are not developed, if aliens do come and cannot guarantee their safety, this will become a very dilemma.
When the "Convention on Contact between Human Civilization and Extraterrestrial Civilization" was formulated, it talked about the deployment of weapons in outer space, because the situation is too complicated.
Time can't be wasted too much, there are more treaties to be discussed, so a decision is made by voting first, and then we will discuss in detail when there is time.
As a result, the number of votes was overwhelmingly "disagree."
Obviously, if agreed, then the gap between aerospace powers and ordinary countries is not simply a technological gap, but a real civilization gap.
Although the military gap between large countries without space weapons and small countries is far, but everyone was on the earth in the past, and then some countries are on the earth, and some countries are in space. The gap in technology, weapons, and culture is greater than that of human beings. The gap between animals is huge, which is really desperate.
Small countries stubbornly believe that when military equipment and cultural subjects are on the earth, their rights still have some guarantees.
If all major countries start to build "space battleships" and "space cities," then they really can't help it.
Naturally, Tianxia will not be as blatant as Meriken and directly establish a space army. It is not a superpower, it is just a small developing country that is recovering.
But those things are not impossible to do, just need to change the angle.
Regardless of the "alien" coming, but the project that has been finalized before should still be done, but it has to be changed from a different perspective.
The huge spectacle space facility "Tian Ting Space Station" still needs to be built, because it is the best transfer station for mankind to go to space. Even if it is not built now, it will be built in the future, not to mention that the tasks have been sent to various factories and companies. .
Then add something to the Tianting Space Station on the original basis.
The original Tianting Space Station was a large space station combining commercial tourism and scientific research, so in order to strengthen its scientific research functions, electromagnetic catapults and laser arrays were added to it.
Well, it's for scientific research.
Just like Tianxia’s famous agricultural satellite and farming channel.
As we all know, electromagnetic catapults are used to eject objects and are often involved in spaceflight. For example, someone wants to install electromagnetic catapults on Mount Everest and then eject objects directly into space. They think this is very cost-effective and convenient. of.
Even if you eject a person, it's easy to shoot to death, but in theory, it's okay to eject pure cargo.
It's just that the ideal is full, but the reality is very skinny.
Not to mention the construction cost of such a huge electromagnetic catapult. It has been built from the foot of the Himalayas to the summit of Mount Everest. The huge G force and air friction are enough to drink a pot of goods.
Regardless of whether you have a low density or a high density, you will all become "iron tuo".
But in space, this method is much easier to use.
Already in space, there is no need to require the initial velocity to overcome the gravity how fast, and there is no need to worry about the problem of air friction. It is indeed a good way to save fuel and deliver objects quickly.
There are more people who want to build electromagnetic catapults on the moon, directly along the slope of the crater, using the characteristics of low gravity and vacuum, to launch the ore or manufactured goods mined from the moon by electromagnetic ejection. Going to the earth is also a time-saving and labor-saving method.
Therefore, it is normal to build several small electromagnetic catapults on the Tianting Space Station for testing.
There is also a laser array, which is also an important test facility.
The light sail spacecraft has always been a very popular long-distance spacecraft, especially the interstellar long-distance spacecraft. This kind of spacecraft does not need to carry a large amount of fuel, but uses a huge thin film lens to use the radiation pressure of the sun as the propulsion of the spacecraft.
The light on the surface of the object will produce pressure, this pressure is very small, under normal circumstances it is difficult for people to measure and perceive.
When the sun is strongest at noon and can directly hit the ground, the pressure of one square meter of glazing is not as great as the weight of an ant.
Such a small force is not enough to push the object to move, but in space, the cumulative effect of this force can make the "spacecraft" reach high speeds.
It's just that this "accumulation time" is quite long.
Because the sun is too "fraternity", it shines in all directions without a focus.
If the natural light fails, then artificially strengthen it.
The laser is so fraternal that is different from the sunlight, it is more concentrated, the difference between the two to the light sail spacecraft is equivalent to the breeze and the high-speed rail.
The breeze blows the world, you can see it anywhere, but it takes a lot of effort to blow a piece of paper.
High-speed rail can only run on special rails, but if you are stunned by it, a car can stun you.
It just so happens that the light sail spacecraft also needs to fly in a certain orbit, so driving it with a laser is perfect.
Because of the interference of the atmosphere on the earth, it is most suitable to install the laser array in space.
Then it is normal operation to install a few units on the "Tianting Space Station".
Well, in fact, people who know some technologies should know what they are, but everything is worthy of a name. As long as the name is right, there will be less trouble.
If you want to experiment, you can also pretend.
It just so happened that even without Tang Chao's assistance, Tianxia's electromagnetic ejection technology and laser launch technology were also the world's top. With Tang Chao's help, it would be even better.
By the way, it must be installed on the moon. It just happens that there are ready-made ideas, namely the lunar crater electromagnetic catapult and the lunar laser array.
Even things built on the moon can be made bigger. After all, the space station is limited, but the place on the moon can be bigger.
The only trouble is the parts transportation and construction.
It would be easy to wait for the moon factory to be built, but the construction of the moon factory is just as troublesome and time-consuming.
Aliens may come at any time, "betting on time" is too risky.
In any case, this shows that mankind can establish a line of defense in space, even if it is relatively weak, but it can also show an attitude.
The old scientist asked Tang Chao's opinion. After all, the establishment of the space defense line requires the assistance of the pilot company. The Tianting space station and the moon base both have pilots and share a lot.
Tang Chao naturally didn't have any comments. Anyway, it was the plan that was finalized before. This time, only a few small things were added, but the construction speed may have to be accelerated because it is in a hurry.
But it doesn't matter. The company can expand its recruitment and adopt new production technologies to withstand it.
There should be no problem in time.
And many professionals have also analyzed it. The unknown probe will not come out or move out of Mars orbit, nor will it come to Earth. After only sending a message, there will be no sound. It is very likely that the alien technology does not how about it.
The reason for being able to come here may be the same as the Voyager 1 probe launched by mankind. It was purely time that made it so far.
This unknown probe was captured by the sun's gravitational force when it passed through the solar system. It happened to not hit the outer planets when it passed through the solar system, but was stopped by Mars when it entered the orbit of Mars.
Taking into account the time factor, the current technology of the other party is definitely more advanced than the time when the probe was launched, but it should not be too advanced.
Because if they develop some kind of "super-light" flight technology, whether it is space jump or curvature flight technology, the probe will fly in this direction. If the goal is clear, then the most advanced spacecraft should arrive before the probe.
Since the aliens have not come, but only the detector has arrived, it means that the other party does not have the "super-light" movement technology.
So no matter whether the other party is in the Trisolaran galaxy closest to the earth or other galaxies farther away, after the probe's information is sent back, the other party sends a spacecraft over, and the time is at least ten years away.
Ten years is very short for the aerospace industry, but it is enough for mankind to establish preliminary space defense facilities.
The premise is that mankind will not have major internal strife in this short decade, which will delay the construction progress.
By the way, the extraterrestrial civilization that launched the unknown detector may regress, or even die out.
Human beings often die, and there is often the danger of civilization regressing or even perishing. The development of extraterrestrial civilization is certainly not smooth sailing.
The famous "big filter theory" is a concept established for this situation.
Not to mention that advanced science and technology will not perish; advanced science and technology will perish faster.
People in the Stone Age started a fight by throwing stones, but they could run away and hide.
In the technological age, human beings throw nuclear bombs in wars, and they have nowhere to run.
A more advanced civilization, such as star-killing weapons, black hole weapons, two-way foil, etc., are littered, and the dead scum is gone.
These are all possible situations, but this time humans are destined to fight the air.
Kan Xing's four-person team didn't know when it would come over. This was a little uncontrollable factor, but it was unknown why the probe was "silent". No one knew better than him.
Because he contacted the detector.
He had been spinning during this period of time. He returned to Tianxia from the cherry blossom country and went directly into the space agency conference room, and then went to Meriken to participate in the United Nations conference, and went there on the evening of Tianxia. Kan Xing, only stayed for 10 hours.
After the UN meeting, he finally returned to the company when he had time, and then used the highest authority to launch secret messages into space in his studio.
The communication program Werner gave to the detector directly contacted the detector, and he asked the detector to perform a self-check. As a result, the detector could not even perform the self-check. Obviously, something went wrong while traveling through space.
No way, he could only check one by one. After the check, he almost breathed a sigh of relief.
The probe did have a problem. The control module, the energy storage module, the propulsion module, the communication module, etc., were all damaged to varying degrees. As a result, it could not detach itself from the gravity of Mars and could only transmit information through relay devices.
Moreover, the damage of the control module and the energy storage module makes it unable to continuously send information and needs to accumulate energy, so it is intercepted before the second message is sent. When will the message be sent later, wait for his command.
He has decided to use this opportunity to let humans look more at the starry sky, and the province is always thinking about that bit of trouble on the earth, mixing this and that all day long.
After all, the future of mankind lies in the universe. As an insider, he can keep "aliens" as a deterrent and guide human civilization.
The name of the leader cannot be called for nothing.
The current situation is very good. All countries are looking at the starry sky. Except for those who are really naive, they are still instigated by people to march and demonstrate, and they are walking in the street all day. Everyone is seriously living their lives and preparing. The arrival of a new era.
If you don't calm down or think about the future at this time, you can basically predict what your future life will be like.
It is his responsibility as a leader to strive for a relatively peaceful environment for the development of the world.
