Reborn Technology Scholar
Chapter 466 Looking up at the stars
Time passed slowly, and September entered unknowingly.
In September in Beijing, the scorching heat of summer begins to gradually recede, the days are not as long as before, and in the evening, the coolness begins.
Today's national news is not about the military training of freshmen, nor about the treatment of leukemia, nor about the breakthrough of a certain technology to reach the world's leading level. Today, all the hot news are focused on the military parade to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
In the news, as well as tributes to the 70th birthday of the motherland, various places use their own methods, including hanging bright five-star red flags on roads and communities, or going to patriotic red education bases, or performing arts performances, dramas and other artistic activities.
It attracted many people to participate.
The descendants of Yan and Huang overseas also used flash photography on the street to wish their motherland on her 70th birthday.
The freshmen in military training also celebrated the 70th anniversary of the founding of the motherland with their own performances. 2019 is definitely an extremely unique year. This year, the whole country is red, which means that the Chinese people and the Party are always connected by destiny and intimately connected.
, which also represents the fruitful achievements made in domestic political governance in the past ten years.
Even if WeChat Group officially moved into its headquarters, it only occupied the news headlines for one day.
The news headlines during this period were about red. Under the powerful propaganda machine and the spontaneous propaganda of the people, the history and bits and pieces about the founding of the Republic once again spread throughout the land of China and penetrated into everyone's heart.
Qin Yuanqing, on the other hand, was writing a book about the universe while he was relatively free. This was when Qin Yuanqing suddenly saw that his children liked to watch science programs related to the universe. Seeing the curiosity of his daughter and son,
So there are popular science books written about the universe.
He begins this book with a quote from the famous science fiction writer Liu: "When humans begin to look up at the stars, they are only one step away from uncovering the ultimate mystery of the universe..."
The most important factor in promoting the development of human science and technology is curiosity. When humans begin to become curious about the starry sky, they will use their imagination to guess the secrets hidden in the starry sky.
Human beings first determined the time, direction and calendar by observing the sun, moon and other celestial bodies and celestial phenomena. The ancient Egyptians discovered that the rising water of the Nile River in the delta area coincided with the sun and Sirius rising on the horizon. They regarded this phenomenon as happening twice.
The time in between is set as one year, with a total of 365 days. The whole year is divided into 12 months, each month has 30 days, and the remaining 5 days are used for festivals; the year is also divided into 3 seasons, namely the "flooding season"
, "grain season", "harvest season", each season lasts 4 months.
The ancient Chinese discovered that the moon's waxing and waning cycle could be used to measure the length of a year, and found that one year was equal to twelve full moons. This discovery was one of the most accurate achievements of the early calendar.
The Stonehenge built by the ancient British on the island of Great Britain can accurately understand the 12 positions of the sun and the moon, and observe and calculate the rise and fall of the sun, moon and stars in different seasons.
Thales of ancient Greece performed the first predicted total solar eclipse; Medon discovered that the phase of the moon repeats the same date on the current solar calendar in a 19-year cycle; Eudoxus proposed the idea that the sun, moon and stars move in concentric circles around the earth;
Parmenides and Democritus argued that the earth is spherical, believed that the morning star and the evening star were the same Venus, and proposed that the Milky Way was densely populated by many stars; Anaxarchus proposed the cause of lunar eclipses and believed that
The moon shines brightly by reflecting sunlight.
The Romans, Arabs, Mayans, Indians, etc. each proposed their own understanding of the mysteries of the universe and made progress in different fields.
In the process of human beings exploring the ultimate mysteries of the universe, they have found the most powerful tool - mathematics. Through mathematics, they can process various data collected through observations. At the same time, there are many data that cannot be obtained directly through observation.
, thus giving rise to mathematical knowledge such as logarithms, spherical coordinate systems, and trigonometric functions.
At the same time, as humans observe the universe in depth, their requirements for observation tools are getting higher and higher, and manufacturing these tools also requires superb knowledge of mathematics, physics, and chemistry. After Newton used the classical mechanics system to describe the macroscopic world in mathematical language,
, Mathematics and astronomy are increasingly connected, and non-Euclidean geometry, calculus, etc. are developing rapidly under the needs of astronomy.
In modern times, both Einstein's theory of relativity and Gamow's big bang theory have borrowed many advanced data tools. It can be said that without mathematics, humans would not be able to achieve today's scientific and technological achievements.
Qin Yuanqing used mathematics as the starting point, combined with physics, and then interspersed biology, chemistry and other subjects to introduce the universe.
Qin Yuanqing overturned the dark matter, dark energy established by Europe, and even the black holes constructed by Hawking. He used his own way to reinterpret the universe by combining mathematics and physics.
He also agreed that the universe is divided into five levels: planets, stars, star systems, river systems, and the universe. Several planets and smaller celestial bodies surround stars to form star systems, and a large number of star systems form river systems.
, such as the Milky Way, which is well known to the world, and then the universe is composed of a large number of river systems.
In his books, he stated with a positive attitude that the earth is not alone in the vast universe. The earth is not the only planet with life in the universe. There must be a large number of life planets in the vast universe, and there must be a large number of life.
, these lives may be beyond the imagination of humans on earth. They are not necessarily carbon-based life, but may be silicon-based life, metal life, or other forms of life.
The technological level of human beings is not the most advanced in the universe. There must be higher-level civilizations in the universe. This advanced cosmic civilization far exceeds human cognition. It may be that for these advanced cosmic civilizations, they have extremely advanced
Spaceships, the weapons of these spaceships are so powerful that one shot can annihilate the entire earth, or even destroy the entire solar system...
Compared with the universe, the earth seems small, and humans on the earth seem even smaller. However, we must not become complacent, arrogant, and lose awe of the universe because of the substantial increase in productivity due to industrialization.
Qin Yuanqing wrote in his book that the future of mankind on earth lies in the starry sky and the vast and infinite universe. Only by bravely stepping out of the earth can we have a broader living space. The earth is small, but the universe outside is huge!
Human beings should explore the stars, explore the universe, and have a brave adventurous spirit. I believe that it will not be long before human beings will truly enter the space age.
This popular science article written in his spare time has about 400,000 words, and there are hundreds of photos. These pictures were drawn by Qin Yuanqing on the computer, such as the operation model of the solar system, the operation model of the Milky Way, etc. These pictures are full of interesting things.
It has a sci-fi feel and is exquisite.
Qin Yuanqing reviewed the manuscript three times before finalizing it. Although the full text is only 400,000 words, it is far incomparable to the million words or even two to three million words on the Internet. But the quality of the two is completely different.
, maybe once his popular science article is published, maybe some Internet writers will be inspired to write another science fiction article or fantasy or fantasy article, and then it will become a hit!
In the popular science article, Qin Yuanqing mentioned that there is no dark matter or dark energy in the universe, but there is cosmic energy, or cosmic energy. This cosmic energy is not a gas, a liquid, a solid, a metal, or a non-metal.
, not even organic matter, but a kind of strange energy. This energy can breed life, nurture the planet, and also destroy the planet.
It is this kind of cosmic energy that ancient Westerners may have accidentally come into contact with, so there is magic and the like. Ancient Easterners may also have noticed this energy, so there are ancient Eastern martial arts legends.
Just because of the changes of time, this method of contacting the energy of the universe has not been passed down, so magic and ancient martial arts have become legends. And the energy of the universe is not everything that humans currently know. With today's scientific and technological means, we need to detect the universe.
There is no doubt that energy cannot be achieved.
In the book, Qin Yuanqing mentioned a question about the speed of light, that is, can the speed of a spaceship exceed the speed of light? Qin Yuanqing thinks it is possible, and when the speed of a spacecraft approaches or reaches the speed of light, there will be an obvious difference in speed.
Curving, that is, the curving of time and space, enables interstellar travel.
In the book, Qin Yuanqing also clearly stated again that the current view of the size of the universe is that the distance from the earth to the universe in any direction is about 46 billion light years. This is not the diameter of the universe, but the current theory and current observations of humans.
The conclusion drawn from the cosmic microwave background radiation is that in fact the diameter of the universe is far more than 46 billion light-years. This data may be 460 billion light-years, or even 4.6 trillion light-years, or larger.
The age of the universe is 13.7 billion years, which is not the true age of the universe. This 13.7 billion years is just a conclusion based on the Big Bang theory. In fact, the universe was not created by the Big Bang. The question of how the universe came into being is not strictly
In a sense, it exceeds the current ceiling of human wisdom, and it is like a blind man trying to grasp an elephant.
Just like the ancient Chinese story of "sitting in a well and looking at the sky", when you sit in the well, you think the sky is that big. In fact, when you jump out of the well, you will find that the sky is much bigger than you thought before!
Qin Yuanqing submitted this popular science article to Shuimu University Press. Now Shuimu University Press has grown ten times more than ten years ago. Not only does it not need school subsidies every year, it even makes hundreds of millions of profits, which it spends every year.
A sum of money can be used to carry out different types of activities, and it is one of the few companies in China that can pay authors royalties. The papers and articles published by Shuimu University Press are also famous for their high quality.
After submitting this popular science article called "When Humans Started to Look Up at the Starry Sky", Qin Yuanqing stopped paying attention.
He also began to prepare for another major event, which was also a great honor for him!
