Interstellar Immortality: Live long enough to dominate the universe

Yan Xia walked around the Hope spacecraft, but didn't go to every place.

Mainly his own living area.

Ella prepared a lot for him.

A huge bedroom of 20 square meters, a giant movie screen of 1000 inches in the audio-visual room, a kitchen, a game room, a study, a gym, and of course, the indispensable toilet.

A very rich living area.

Of course, in addition to these, there is also a "street" made to imitate the earth, a street that is realistic enough to simulate the sky and the ground, but there is no one.

A total of 31,371 square meters.

Holding a tablet in his hand, Yan Xia is zooming in on a video.

The scene in the video is exactly the scene of the earth.

In 100 years, the earth has been completely torn apart. If the original human beings on the earth still had a one in a billion chance of survival, then now there is no more.

It was hit by the moon long ago, and the fragments of the moon were pulled into a long string.

Only small fragments can be seen in the video.

But each of those fragments may be a city or a country of the original human beings, with tens of millions of humans living in it.

Now, there should be millions of human skeletons lying inside.

Yan Xia couldn't help feeling a little melancholy.

Ella appeared on a screen in front of him and reminded him.

"Yan Xia, we will set off in half a year."

"The fragments of the Earth and the Moon are about to reach the surface of the Sun. When they collide, the solar system will also undergo a huge change."

"By then, if we are still in the asteroid belt, we will only be ruthlessly destroyed."

100 years have passed, and it is time for the Earth to sink into the embrace of the Sun.

Yan Xia also cheered up after hearing this.

"Take me out to see the third-generation controlled nuclear fusion device."

Ella led Yan Xia outside.

Of course, he also had to wear a space suit.

However, compared to 100 years ago, the space suit that Ella made for Yan Xia turned black, with only a thin layer that fit the skin. Although it still had a huge light bulb-like hood, it was much easier and simpler than 100 years ago.

After leaving the spacecraft and stepping on the steel frame, Yan Xia realized how big the external scene of the spacecraft he had just seen was.

The platform where he stood was more than 200 meters wide and more than 5,000 meters long.

Standing here, he was like a tiny ant lying on an A4 paper, or even smaller.

Looking back at the Hope, he was even more shocked.

The dark ship was extremely deep against the dark background, and the slight metallic reflection gave it a hint of coldness. It was like a giant beast quietly crawling, waiting to wake up.

Not long after.

A burgundy streamlined magnetic supercar stopped in front of him, and its appearance was somewhat like Bugatti.

Because this supercar was in space and was not bound by gravity, it looked very large, six meters long and more than three meters wide.

It was very spacious for Yan Xia to sit in.

When the door closed, the supercar accelerated to 300 kilometers per hour in 1 second, and the five-kilometer platform took only one minute.

Then it entered the surface of the asteroid and took another two minutes to stop outside a huge factory with a height of 180 meters and an area of ​​more than one million square meters.

The factory number is A-283

Ella set the engineering importance level for the factory, A is the highest and F is the lowest.

Yan Xia entered the factory.

What he saw was a huge device.

The height of this device is more than 70 meters and the diameter is more than 200 meters. The most eye-catching thing is the transparent ring device inside. It is hollow inside and you can see the flickering and jumping current.

Each current is as thick as Yan Xia's arm.

"Electromagnetic confinement?"

The controlled nuclear fusion device itself requires high-intensity magnetic force for confinement. This super-strong magnetic force that produces current is a bit beyond the scope for Yan Xia.

Just this size is enough to illustrate its terrifying performance.

"Yan Xia, the third-generation controlled nuclear fusion device has now entered the final testing stage, please look."

Ella pointed in that direction.

A piercing roar sounded, just like turning on an oversized fan blowing directly in the ear, the noise was directly maxed out.

This is space. The reason why there is sound is because Yan Xia is standing on the ground, and the sound can be transmitted through solids.

Yan Xia jumped up and left the surface.

All the sounds disappeared.

Looking at the controlled nuclear fusion device again, the entire ring container has turned into light, and it is almost impossible to look directly at it.

It is essentially a totamaq device called a small sun.

The nuclei of heavy hydrogen "deuterium" and super heavy hydrogen "tritium" are producing fusion, releasing powerful energy.

This energy is collected by the device as heat energy, and then converted into kinetic energy with heat energy.

It still cannot be separated from "boiling water".

This device is one of the greatest pursuits of mankind a hundred years ago.

Having controlled nuclear fusion means having inexhaustible energy.

And Yan Xia and Ella have completed this great leap for the entire human civilization.

Shock!

Yan Xia's heart is only shocked.

The third-generation controlled nuclear fusion device has been strictly ignited for thirty-seven tests and started to be installed.

When the huge device was stuffed into the spacecraft, Yan Xia still couldn't believe it.

After all, his consciousness is still stuck in a hundred years ago.

"Yan Xia, after the third-generation controlled nuclear fusion device is installed, the power bottleneck of my main engine will increase again."

"My code has been rewritten 23 times in a hundred years. I also hope that you, one of my creators, can check the code for me."

Ella swiped on the screen, and a large amount of code appeared on the screen in front of Yan Xia.

As a computer engineer, Yan Xia immediately felt sick to his stomach when he saw this string of code. Especially after seeing the number of lines, he couldn't hold back.

Number of lines of source code - 183729 lines!

Although he was dizzy, Ella was his main guarantee in the future. Yan Xia still carefully checked the codes, including the three principles at the bottom.

After all, some of these 180,000 lines of code were written by Ella for herself over the years.

These codes have gradually exceeded the level of human society.

Ella was willing to let him check her, probably because she wanted him to feel at ease. This also proved that Ella had become more human in the past 100 years.

It took a month.

"The inspection is completed and it's very ok."

From a severe summer perspective, there are no downsides.

"Yeah!"

Virtual Ella jumped with excitement.

At this time, Hope finally completed the installation of the third-generation nuclear fusion device.

Yan Xia was sitting in the huge cockpit. The screens around him were filled with scenes from various factories, and some robots were still working.

Everything here cannot fit on the Hope.

These things can only stay here.

"Ella, is it possible for them to escape the solar storm?"

Ella replied seriously.

"The possibility is less than one in a thousand, Yan Xia!"

"It's too close to the sun, and it's very risky for us to escape. Our thrusters actually use nuclear fusion to heat protons, rather than directly using the plasma generated by nuclear fusion for propulsion. There are also deficiencies in efficiency."

Yan Xia sighed. In fact, he and Ella discussed this issue. Nuclear fusion thrusters are not difficult to make, but it is difficult to produce electricity at the same time. And electricity is the core of Ella's computing power, so we made it here. Some trade-offs.

"At least it's still possible."

"Write them an artificial intelligence and, if they survive, let them develop on their own."

"This is, after all, the origin of humankind."

"Their birth is also an extension of human civilization."

"When we leave the solar system this time, we don't know whether we will live or die. We only hope that if these machines can survive, they can also inherit the will of mankind."

Ella nodded her head, her white hair trembling wildly, and she also learned to show a sad look.

"Okay, Yan Xia!"

In less than a minute, all the work is done.

"Light the fire, Ella."

"The target is still Proxima Centauri."

Yan Xia looked at the factory outside through the screen.

He really didn't know if he could come back after this trip.

"Okay, the asteroid 001 interstellar port in the solar system has begun to retract, the caliper has disengaged, the spacecraft has left the port, and has reached the scheduled take-off position!"

"The target course has been confirmed, the best course has been set, all magnetic valves are opened, and all electromagnetic thrusters start supplying energy."

"Everything is ready."

"5!"

"4!"

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"ignition……"

The spacecraft woke up, and a terrifying ice-blue heat wave erupted from the tail. It felt like it could melt everything, and it left the asteroid like a meteor.

This may be an eternal farewell.

On the asteroid, all the robots came out and saluted in the direction of the Hope spacecraft leaving!
