Paranormal incident investigation notes

Chapter 161 The Uncertainty Principle

After a moment of silence, the two met Professor Cheng Yucheng, who was in charge of the accident investigation.

Professor Cheng is in his sixties, and his hair is already half gray. At this moment, his face looks tired and he has bags under his eyes.

As soon as he saw the two of them, Professor Cheng complained: "Are you assigned by your superiors to assist in the investigation of this incident? Oh, criminal investigators?"

"Yes. I am Senior Sergeant Zhang Dingshan of the Public Security Bureau. This is my colleague, Lu Ming."

"I have said before that this is a simple accidental crash without any signs of man-made damage. I don't know what else to investigate. I suggest that you close the case as soon as possible and announce the investigation conclusions to the outside world as soon as possible. Now , outside public opinion is already quite dissatisfied with our delay in making the investigation conclusions public."

Professor Cheng Yu obviously didn't know the twists and turns behind this.

Zhang Dingshan said seriously: "Professor Cheng, I can say responsibly that our Public Security Bureau has obtained excellent evidence to prove that this crash must be a man-made incident and can be characterized as a terrorist attack. It is not just a simple incident." unexpected events."

Seeing Zhang Dingshan's seriousness, Professor Cheng Yu couldn't help but become serious: "Really?"

"Yes. Otherwise, our superiors would not have sent us here. But I'm sorry, but I cannot reveal to you the specific evidence we have due to confidentiality regulations."

Professor Cheng Yu said bitterly: "You all said so, and I definitely believe it. It's just that... up to this point in the investigation, I really can't find any traces of man-made things."

Zhang Dingshan said: "I will mobilize more investigation forces to assist you in your work."

"It's not a matter of a large number of people and a small number of people, you know? Just like, one person can't fly, and ten thousand people can't fly. I can only say that I will investigate everything that can be investigated and suspected. After that, even if you call in 10,000 people, you still don’t know how to check.”

Lu Ming coughed lightly and said, "Professor Cheng, maybe... you can look for clues in a direction beyond our current technology."

Facing Lu Ming's words, Professor Cheng Yu was startled, as if he was a little unsure, and repeated: "A direction beyond our current technology?"

Lu Ming nodded.

Professor Cheng Yu looked at a few people with some uncertainty, and said cautiously: "An alien?"

He has a certain secret level, and information of this level can be known to him.

Faced with his slightly shocked, confused, and slightly ridiculous inquiry, Zhang Dingshan said seriously: "This possibility cannot be ruled out."

"Are you kidding me?"

Zhang Dingshan shook his head very seriously: "As a senior sergeant of the Public Security Bureau, I tell you clearly and responsibly that I am not joking."

Professor Cheng Yu took a long breath: "This is interesting. Okay, do you know which direction to check?"

"meteorological."

Lu Ming said these two words very seriously, and then said: "We have mobilized a team of meteorological experts to arrive. When the time comes, you will be needed to cooperate with their work."

"meteorological?"

Lu Ming told Professor Cheng Yu the results of the previous discussion of the second action team. Professor Cheng Yu had a thoughtful look on his face.

Lu Qingliang's ability to do things was as clean and neat as ever. A day before Zhang Dingshan and Lu Ming arrived at the investigation team's station, a team of four people arrived.

The leading expert is named Si Hao, a middle-aged man with handsome features. After greetings, several people were brought into the conference room.

In the conference room, Zhang Dingshan and Lu Ming were already seated. Cheng Yu and another expert are also here as representatives of the crash investigation team.

But Zhang Dingshan did not immediately start task introduction and arrangements. He gestured, and a staff member took out four confidentiality agreements and placed them in front of four meteorological experts.

"Professor Si, the subsequent tasks involve high confidentiality, and you and several of your colleagues need to sign this confidentiality agreement first. This is the rule, I'm sorry."

Lu Ming stood up and explained to Si Hao and others very respectfully.

Si Hao smiled and waved his hand: "I understand the rules."

He picked up the confidentiality agreement, read it for a while, and soon signed his name. The same goes for the other three.

From this moment on, their actions will also be restricted by the confidentiality law. Violation may result in imprisonment or death.

After sending the confidentiality agreement away for archiving, Zhang Dingshan said: "This is the situation in this mission."

He gave a detailed explanation. When I heard Zhang Dingshan's story, I thought that the crash might be caused by a secret organization unknown to the human world, which predicted the weather conditions in a limited area within a limited time in advance, and thus predicted the weather conditions in advance. After the arrangement caused the crash, or simply directly manipulated the weather to cause the plane to crash, Si Hao and others were stunned.

"Professor Si, the task of your team is to use Professor Cheng's crash data to infer the detailed meteorological data of the area where the plane was located at that time. And to calculate what kind of forecasting capabilities are needed to achieve such accurate weather predictions. "

Cheng Yu has a complete simulation of the plane crash process here. Using computer technology, they can clearly and intuitively present on the computer screen what happened at every step of the plane's crash process and what impact the external weather had on the aircraft's body.

From this, Si Hao's team can use these known conditions to infer the detailed meteorological data at that time, even so detailed that it includes the different flow rates and densities of each airflow in each small area, and the differences between different airflows. Interaction, humidity, temperature, etc.

The usual weather forecast is only for a large area, with a general statement such as "wind speed XX, humidity XX".

"Okay. Well, it can be completed in about two days."

"good."

Two days passed in a blink of an eye. After that, a scene appeared in front of Zhang Dingshan and Lu Ming.

It was an extremely complex image, with many lines dividing it into many areas of different sizes and shapes. Each area had three-dimensional images of different colors and numbers. As time went by, those different areas The areas were chaotically twisting and changing rapidly.

"The scale is 1:1000."

The length and width of this image are about 40 centimeters. Taking into account the scale, it actually represents an area of ​​400 meters long and 400 meters wide, with a total area of ​​160,000 square meters.

The depth of this three-dimensional image is as high as 26 meters, which actually means a depth of up to 26 kilometers. The total duration of the simulation is three minutes.

"The total duration of flight EU7655 from the accident to the end of the day was about two minutes. During these two minutes, the plane flew a total distance of 26 kilometers. In other words, this three-dimensional map started one minute before the plane arrived. Start the simulation and continue until the aircraft finally leaves the area."

Si Hao pressed the play button. Then Lu Ming saw that in this rectangular area, countless masses and areas were twisting and interacting in chaos, and countless numbers began to change rapidly.

A minute later, an image of an airplane appeared at the edge. However, before the plane arrived, its influence had already been conveyed here, causing the airflow to change even more drastically.

When the plane finally crashed into this area at an extremely high speed, Lu Ming saw that the changes in the airflow were so violent that it was like a big fish being thrown directly into the frying pan while still alive.

The numbers representing speed, humidity, temperature, density and other data climbed from extremely low to extremely high, or dropped from extremely high to extremely low in an instant. The changes were so drastic that he was dazzled.

During this, he noticed that based on the interaction between airflows, or some special mechanism that he did not understand yet, a larger block suddenly appeared in the right wing turbine engine of the aircraft, and the changes were more synchronous. . The area first instantly turned cyan, which represented extremely low temperatures, and then instantly turned red, which represented extremely high temperatures.

After repeating this several times, the virtual plane suddenly burst into flames. A ball of hot air suddenly rushed out, making the situation at this moment even more chaotic.

The too chaotic and strong airflow affected the movement direction of a certain black dot - Lu Ming knew that it represented a broken fan blade, causing it to suddenly insert into a certain part of the aircraft fuselage. Afterwards, a chain reaction started until the plane crashed downwards and completely lost control.

In just three minutes, Lu Ming seemed to have relived the entire process of the plane from normal flight to final crash. He intuitively felt how this extreme and rare weather change could destroy an airplane "by chance".

In the conference room, everyone who watched the accident was speechless.

After a long time, Professor Si Hao broke the silence: "This is all the meteorological data we have deduced."

Lu Ming asked: "So, based on the current meteorological accuracy, Professor Si, with our current technical strength, how long can we predict?"

Zhang Dingshan added: "Assuming you have enough, we have the most advanced observation equipment in the human world."

Si Hao pondered for a moment and said with a wry smile: "My answer is, it's impossible to predict. You can't even predict the data one second later."

"What?"

Zhang Dingshan frowned, and Lu Ming was shocked.

Before that, he had already had a hunch that the predictable time might not be too long. But no matter how short it is, with a sufficient number of state-of-the-art observation equipment, it should still be possible to barely predict the weather data in an hour or two, right?

How could it not be predicted even for a second?

"I didn't expect that the weather data restored from the aircraft wreckage would be so accurate."

Lu Ming knew that the so-called accuracy in his words meant that if it could be predicted in advance that an airplane would be destroyed in this weather environment, then the prediction of weather data in the area would be inevitable. To achieve this accuracy.

Without this level of accuracy, it would be impossible to predict that the plane will crash due to meteorological factors.

Si Hao sighed: "I would like to ask everyone first, how to observe such precise weather data?"

"Of course...huh?"

Lu Ming was stunned for a moment and stopped talking.

He probably gets it.

Si Hao continued: "Such high-precision meteorological data can only be obtained unless a sufficient number of sufficiently advanced observation equipment is placed on site. However, the observation equipment itself will also affect the air flow and have a negative impact on the area. Meteorological data creates disturbances. If so, how to predict it?"

Lu Ming remembered a famous law of physics, the uncertainty principle.

For a particle, it is impossible for a measurer to accurately measure its position and also accurately measure its momentum.

The more accurate the measurement of position, the less accurate the measurement of momentum. vice versa.

Because the observation behavior of the observer will interfere with the particles.

At this moment, Si Hao's explanation turned out to be similar to the Uncertainty Principle.

"The reason why we can obtain this data now is to restore it through the effects it caused. We can trace the past, but we cannot predict the future."

Lu Ming pondered for a moment and asked: "Assuming that you have some kind of super facility that can obtain such precise weather data in the area without interference, how long in the future can you predict changes?"

Si Hao was silent for a moment and answered: "It still won't work for a second. It's impossible to predict at all."

"How is it possible? Or not even for a second?"

Lu Ming was surprised again.

Si Hao smiled bitterly and said: "This area is not closed, but open.

With such high precision, a slight change in the external environment will have a huge impact on the interior.

It is said that we want to predict this small area, but when it comes to actual prediction, well, we calculate the high-altitude wind speed at 50 meters per second. In one hour, the wind can blow 180 kilometers. That is, if we want to predict the data one hour later, we It is necessary to obtain all the meteorological data with such precision inside this circular cake with a radius of 180 kilometers. Is this possible?

Moreover, in principle, it is not just the airflow itself that affects meteorological data. There are also various aircraft, birds, and even the mountain peaks on the ground, the vegetation on the mountain peaks, tall towers, and so on.

This is a completely chaotic system, how can it be predicted? "

Lu Ming was silent.

All he had known before was that the future was unpredictable. But he didn't know that predicting the weather could be so difficult.

In fact, if you think about it, weather forecasts, which are trend-oriented, large-scale, and low-precision forecasts, are often inaccurate. Such high-precision, small-scale, and detailed forecasts are difficult to achieve, but they can be done. Got it.

"Then, based on your understanding, if there is such a being that can predict changes in weather data with such precision in advance, then how strong will its technological strength be?"

Si Hao shook his head: "I can't imagine it. I only know that it must be very advanced, so advanced that we can't imagine it."
