Voyage of the Stars

Although humans and the affiliated alien races do not live in the same living spaceship, they are under the same network. The network inside humans is the main network, and the other alien races use the human sub-network. Because all the living spaceships are in the same starry sky, although the network has some delays, it is still acceptable.

Since they have become affiliated with humans, the sovereignty and network must be dominated by humans.

For ordinary people, the relationship between the human network and the networks of several alien races is equivalent to the internal and external networks. Some humans often browse various websites of other races through the network. Things like human videos that appear in the networks of other races are sent by these people.

The original intention of these people was to see how aliens communicate internally, how their behavior and thoughts are different from those of humans, and so on. They also often get some videos from other races on the Internet and post them on the human network to achieve the purpose of entertainment.

In fact, these are all a kind of spontaneous cultural exchange, which can expand the horizons of human beings, and the new government is happy to see it.

While ordinary people are still immersed in the success of the grand unified theory formula, the human scientific team has already set its sights on the farther front.

First of all, the improvement of the warp engine. After mastering the grand unified theory, humans upgraded the warp engine they made again, starting from the principle, and made a higher quality warp engine.

At the same time, research in other areas is also continuing. With the grand unified theory as the cornerstone, humans have officially challenged various applied technologies, such as warp navigation technology research, tachyon communication technology research, force field control research, and the research on the three basic forces under the grand unified framework, and the derivative technologies that may be born.

Humans are very clear that under the grand unified theory framework, there will definitely be a lot of derivative technologies, just like the realization of controlled nuclear fusion in the past.

And the first breakthrough in these various studies is tachyon communication technology.

In the second year after mastering the grand unified theory formula, humans made the first tachyon detector based on the principle of the grand unified theory, and after installing this tachyon detector on an astronomical particle collider, they successfully detected the tachyons generated during the collision experiment.

This discovery is equivalent to going back to prove the correctness of the previous related tachyon theory.

On this basis, humans successfully made a tachyon generator in the second year, and achieved success in communication experiments in the laboratory in the second half of the same year. Then in the third year, humans created the first mass-produced tachyon communication device.

After various actual communication tests at both ends of this space, humans found that the delay of tachyon communication was very low, and the delay was less than 1 millisecond at a distance of more than ten light years. Later, it was discovered that this delay was actually caused by the reaction speed of human electronic devices. In other words, tachyon communication within a range of more than ten light years can be said to be almost instantaneous and real-time.

Why is it almost? Because many scientists believe that although the speed of tachyons is faster than the speed of light, it has not reached infinity. From the concept of speed, it still has a speed, at least the tachyons that humans currently have for communication are like this, but humans have not yet measured at what breadth of spatial scale it will have a delay.

At the same time, some scientists believe that there is more than one type of tachyon, and there are speed differences between them, just like photons and other particles, but humans have not yet discovered other conjectured tachyons.

Based on this, the Human Academy of Sciences lists tachyons as a large category of scientific and technological branches and a path of scientific and technological systems, called tachyon technology. Under this current technology system, only the tachyon communication technology discovered and applied by humans for communication is marked. Other applications and discoveries of tachyon technology are still in the speculation stage. For example, the discovery of other tachyons that can be used for weapons, etc., has been studied by relevant scientists.

If we say that in addition to tachyon technology, what is the most exciting technology that has emerged after humans mastered the grand unified theory, it is undoubtedly the gravitational potential well technology.

Human scientists have discovered that they can modify the input energy ratio through the grand unified equation to affect the effect of electromagnetic force, strong interaction force, and weak interaction force after fusion under a specific environmental background, just like the generation of warp bubbles and warp displacement effects, so that it produces a space effect similar to gravity, which they call the gravitational potential well effect.

And this technology is called gravitational potential well technology.

What is gravitational potential well technology? As the name suggests, humans can create a device that produces a gravitational potential well effect. The gravitational potential well effect is easy to understand. It means literally that objects in the gravitational potential well are subjected to a gravity-like effect.

For example, if a force is applied to an object suspended in space, it will easily move around due to the force, just like touching an object in a zero-gravity environment. But if a gravitational potential well is applied to the location of the object, the effect will be different.

The object will be firmly fixed in this area, and even if it is poke hard, it will rebound to its original position like a spring, just like a small ball placed in a funnel.

And this invisible funnel is the gravitational potential well.

The object will tend to move towards the center of the gravitational potential well as if it is pulled by gravity.

This is a great technology, a great technology based on the grand unified theory, because its emergence will bring earth-shaking changes to human civilization.

First of all, in terms of antimatter. The existence of gravitational potential well technology makes it possible to store a large amount of antimatter. Humans can use gravitational potential well technology to safely place large quantities of antimatter in containers made of matter without worrying about the collision of antimatter and matter and causing annihilation reactions.

The second is spaceships and warships.

The emergence of gravitational potential well technology will completely change the form of human warships and residential spaceships. Especially for residential spaceships, humans will say goodbye to drum-type residential spaceships. Because it can be foreseen that after the large-scale application of gravitational potential well technology, humans will no longer need to use the centripetal force generated by the rotation of the large disk of the spaceship to simulate the gravity effect, but can directly use gravitational potential well technology to simulate.

This means that human residential spaceships no longer need various rotating structures, which will make residential spaceships more solid and the available space will become larger, because the human living place on the residential spaceship will no longer be limited to the outer circle of the rotating disk.

After that, the interior of the residential spaceship can be a multi-layer structure like a cruise ship. Similarly, human warships will also bid farewell to the era of magnetic boots, and the rotating structure of the internal office and living areas can also be omitted, which will free up a lot of space for other uses in warships.

In other words, humans can finally feel the existence of gravity on warships again, just like on Earth.

Technology has indeed changed life.

Perhaps some people say that humans are too obsessed with the gravity environment, and it is better to live in a weightless environment after going into space, but the gravity environment on Earth is an environment that all functions of the human body have adapted to for billions of years, and it is definitely the most comfortable environment for humans.

Moreover, humans who have mastered the gravity potential well technology are not stupid enough not to set a switch.
