Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

"First of all, the first project we need to overcome is communication technology."

Lu Yongchang stood in front of the command center, looking solemnly at all the academicians of the Academy of Sciences present.

"Currently, the space starship factory has successfully manufactured the first planet-class starship."

"Although it is only a small engineering ship and does not carry many advanced weapon modules, its comprehensive performance has far exceeded the scope of the original satellite-class starship."

"For planet-class starships equipped with a new generation of curvature engines, the curvature navigation speed has been increased to 30c, which is still far from the theoretical upper limit of 50c."

"But these caps are just a bunch of useless numbers to us today."

"Due to the obstacles of communication technology, the starship's sailing speed can still only be maintained at 10c and below."

"Communication technology has become the biggest shortcoming limiting the strength of the fleet!"

Lu Yongchang's voice echoed in the command center.

The expressions on the faces of the academicians of the Academy of Sciences gradually became serious.

Everyone is aware of this problem, but...

"Yongchang, do you think, besides quantum long-distance communication, what other means of communication can exceed the speed of light?"

Fang Xu sighed softly and said with some confusion: "Academician Mo Zeyang has been working hard to improve quantum communication technology."

"He also reported to me the progress of the work, but... we have not found a way to circumvent the [event form] theory."

Lu Yongchang chuckled and waved his hand gently.

"Quantum communication is definitely not going to work."

"We need to blaze a new trail."

As he spoke, he raised his right hand and operated on the blue holographic projection beside him.

A line of bright white text slowly emerged in the projection.

【Tachyon communication technology】

After a short period of silence, low and intensive discussions came from all directions in the command center.

…

Two days ago.

Lu Yongchang is sitting in his office, which is one of the few areas in the Earth that is covered with artificial gravity.

He stretched his body, lay back on the office chair, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

A brand new star system means a lot of chores.

Fortunately, with everyone's efforts, these trivial matters were resolved one by one, and the human fleet gradually got on the right track of development.

With a slight smile on his lips, he slowly closed his eyes.

With a slight movement of consciousness, he sank into the technology tree system in his mind.

The mottled technology tree background remained as it always was, exuding a mysterious aura that constantly attracted his attention.

Lu Yongchang, who had a clear purpose, did not pay too much attention to this weird background, and directly focused his attention on the white technology tree suspended in the air.

Since entering the era of technological explosion, the technology tree of the fifth-level civilization has been lit up a lot.

His gaze skipped the bright cursors and extended directly to the extremely dim font.

【Tachyon communication technology】

Tachyon?

Countless information about tachyons suddenly appeared in Lu Yongchang's mind.

Does this thing really exist?

At the same time, deep confusion appeared in his mind.

But soon, he put these doubts behind him - the technology marked on the technology tree has not had any errors so far.

He began to focus himself.

Inspiration also sprung up in his mind like mushrooms after a rain.

…

"Kuai Zi?"

Not far away, Mo Zeyang frowned slightly and muttered in a low voice: "Does this thing... really exist?"

Since the beginning of the earth's time, tachyons, subatomic particles, have always existed in the conjectures of human scientists.

(Subatomic particles, also known as subatomic particles, refer to particles with structures smaller than atoms, such as electrons, protons, neutrons, etc.)

According to theoretical speculation, the speed of tachyons is infinite and far exceeds the speed of light.

Therefore, in a sense, it can achieve true long-distance communication!

No matter where you are in the universe, tachyons can arrive in an instant!

but……

"So far, tachyons still only exist in the mathematical system, and we have never observed evidence of the existence of tachyons." Fang Xu said in a deep voice.

"Yes." Lu Yongchang nodded lightly.

"The observation of tachyons, or in other words, the observation of super-light objects, far exceeds our previous technical level."

Lu Yongchang’s words touched the hearts of many academicians.

"I understand! I understand!"

"You mean..." Tao Yuda suddenly realized, with a bit of excitement in his eyes, "If we want to observe tachyons, we must sit on a curvature spacecraft?!"

Lu Yongchang nodded with satisfaction with a smile in his eyes.

"right."

"If you compare the universe to an ocean."

"The speed of light is an uncrossable divide, which is the surface of the ocean."

"Below the speed of light is sea water and our visible universe. Protons, neutrons, electrons... these sub-light particles can never exceed the speed of light under normal circumstances."

"And those tachyons, such as tachyons, can never travel slower than the speed of light."

"Where they are is in the sky above the sea."

"This creates a phenomenon."

"We who live in the sub-light universe can never spy on the phenomena that occur in the super-light universe!"

"Unless we break free from the shackles of the sea and rush into the sky!"

"The curvature engine has brought us a breakthrough!"

"I guess, when our speed exceeds the speed of light, some similar experiments may yield some additional discoveries!"
