Voyage of the Stars

The universe is turbulent, and the Awakeners, Silicon-based Alliance, and Reapers are all busy because of the content broadcasted everywhere by the Galactic Alliance.

In fact, they are not the only ones. Some ordinary sixth-level civilizations who have detected the broadcast are also secretly paying attention to the starry sky, or they come out to explore, or they sense that something big may happen in the near future and simply hide in their own small universe.

In the dark starry sky, countless civilizations are shuttled back and forth, but those civilizations are too advanced for humans to discover at all.

Therefore, the starry sky that humans see is still very quiet, and what they still see is a peaceful starry sky.

Now that humans have given up on searching for the remains of alien civilizations, after receiving the news from the Chiyan Civilization that there may be remains of alien civilizations in this star field, humans have tried hard to search for them. Unfortunately, after thousands of years have passed, nothing has been found.

Perseverance is a good virtue, but humans can't waste time looking for relics. There are still many important things to do, such as the new particle collider project, the survey telescope array project, and the Xiaohui military version upgrade project, etc. Civilization-level large-scale projects.

Because of communication delays, humans are definitely not able to divide the entire civilization into many parts and disperse them to search for the remains of alien civilizations. It is possible to let each strong artificial intelligence lead an exploration fleet to explore, but manufacturing strong artificial intelligence also requires a lot of cost, time cost, technical cost. If you have that time to create so many strong artificial intelligence, you might as well use them in various star systems. Mining to serve the new particle collider project in the future!

One is an experimental project that can be actually seen and can at least verify its authenticity, and the other is the remains of an alien civilization whose existence is only known to be unknown. Human beings still know which one is more important.

Of course, it is not impossible to release one or two unmanned exploration teams led by strong artificial intelligence. In fact, human civilization has already made this arrangement when it decided to find a star field with dense stars to start a new particle collider project.

However, strong artificial intelligence is not life after all. Although it surpasses humans in many aspects of capabilities, it is not omnipotent. The effect of putting them into exploration is far less than that of engineering, manufacturing and production industries.

It's better than nothing. Before humans go to the suitable star field, they put a strong artificial intelligence exploration team here to continue searching. Anyway, it will take a long time for humans to build a new particle collider, so they just put strong artificial intelligence slowly. If you search for stars one by one, you may or may not find a surprise.

As a result, while the major sixth-level civilizations were busy, human beings peacefully entered the great hibernation and opened the way to the predetermined star field.

The scheduled star field is about two hundred light years away from where humans set sail. Calculating the distance alone, it will take about three hundred to four hundred years. However, interstellar navigation is not just about dividing the distance by the speed and then adding the time dilation effect. Take into account the time for replenishment on the way.

The navigation technology of the third-level civilization has not yet reached that level. Of course, hundreds of years of navigation are no longer a problem. Just stop a few more times for maintenance and replenish resources. There will be no problem with navigation safety without human intervention.

Generally speaking, for such long-distance voyages, the new government will launch a hibernation plan, but this is not the case this time. The new government only issued a sailing schedule notice and opened hibernation permits for ordinary people.

During the voyage, whether ordinary people want to hibernate is entirely voluntary.

Nowadays, human lifespan is much longer, and it can be said that we have a long lifespan. In this case, the issue of hibernating or not hibernating for hundreds of years is no longer the focus of people's attention.

And if you are the only one who hibernates and no one else does, you may face social adjustment syndrome after waking up from hibernation. Because of this, after the fleet set sail, even if the new government opened hibernation, many people did not hibernate, but chose to stay awake all the time.

Perhaps this will become the norm for human navigation in the future.

This is a good thing and a bad thing.

The good side is that humans can continue to develop during the voyage, instead of falling into stagnant technological development as before. The bad side is that the voyage supply task will increase.

Tens of billions of people, plus the massive number of individual lives of the Red Flame Civilization, as well as the Kobold Legion and the Kuntai Legion, add up to more than 100 billion. The living resources to provide such a massive amount of intelligent life are also an astronomical number, and the logistical pressure is greater than before. All are big.

So much so that humans had to replenish supplies step by step and slowly move towards their destination.

Of course, humans did not waste this period of sailing. Most people were awake. Yue Yuan and the scientists naturally had no reason to hibernate. After all, they still had important things to do.

As Yu Nanfeng said when the new particle collider was first proposed, in order to make this particle collider with a high energy level and a length of astronomical units a reality, in addition to the largest resource required for manufacturing, In addition to the difficulty, there are many problems that need to be overcome in the design stage and theoretical stage.

Since you have decided to build it, these things must be resolved in advance, otherwise the construction will start by then and the drawings have not been drawn yet, and the joke will be big.

The new particle collider is related to the key to mankind's search for a grand unified theory and promotion to the fourth-level civilization, so it has become the top priority of the preliminary preparations. Almost all relevant human scientists have participated in this project. Of course, not only human scientists, but also the scientific team of the Red Flame Civilization are also included in the project system.

Human beings will package up the scientific problems that need to be overcome in the project and assign them to the Red Flame Civilization, allowing their scientific team to participate in the project in the form of 'outsourcing'.

Work together to build a new particle collider.

In fact, the scientific team of Chiyan Civilization was shocked when they learned that humans actually wanted to build such a long collider. They did not expect that humans would be so crazy. It would be suffocating to think about it. project.

And of course there is the excitement of exploring the unknown.

The Red Flame Civilization is also a third-level civilization. As scientists of the Red Flame Civilization, they originally thought of many ways to master the grand unified theory. However, they have worked hard for thousands of years, thought of countless ways, and made countless experimental attempts, but to no avail. I can find that tiny bit of possibility to unify the powerful forces.

But now, humans are embarking on this crazy plan that seems feasible in theory.

It has to be said that if it were the Red Flame Civilization, it would be completely impossible to promote such a project. That is, only a human civilization with mature strong artificial intelligence technology would be possible, and only then would there be information to complete such a huge project.

The scientific team of Chiyan Civilization, who learned that humans were going to carry out this project, felt that in the face of the new collider project, the survey telescope array and the Xiaohui military version upgrade project were all small projects.
