Voyage of the Stars

Year after year, decade after decade, the Star Alliance led by humans continued to cross the sea of ​​stars, passing one star after another, and made one journey after another.

Unknowingly, they have run for about three thousand light years, and humans think it should be enough. Humans are not sure whether the dynamic picture civilization and the fifth-level civilization behind them are still looking for them, but they have indeed not seen any trace of civilization along the way, and there are no pursuers. Perhaps humans have really shaken off the pursuers.

And running for three thousand light years, humans think it is enough. The sea of ​​stars is vast, and it is still difficult to find a civilization. Even if the fifth-level civilization goes out in person, it can only look for it one star at a time. The probability of encountering between stars is too low.

Perhaps it is precisely because humans spend most of their time in interstellar navigation that they have escaped the pursuit. Perhaps the other party is still looking for them. Who knows, after all, the news that they have obtained the creation left by the sixth-level civilization may have been heard by the fifth-level civilization of the Perseus Trade Federation.

Humans have not encountered any other civilizations along the way, and they don't think it's a big deal, because this is the normal state of interstellar navigation. The starry sky is so vast, and it's a problem to encounter a civilization after walking a few stars.

Now humans believe that they frequently encountered other civilizations after meeting the awakener, and almost all of them were civilizations of the same level. Now looking back, it is indeed a bit abnormal. Maybe the awakener is really behind the scenes.

Because the awakener "Huan" has clearly told humans that they need humans to grow up as soon as possible, maybe it's really his arrangement.

In any case, humans haven't encountered other civilizations for a long time, and no one knows where the Orange Star civilization has gone. In this way, humans walked and stopped, and just like usual, they randomly selected a star as a docking and supply point.

For humans, the star field of the Perseus Arm where they are now is already a strange star field. The position data, star data, star map, etc. of each star need to be drawn by humans themselves. In the past, when humans were on Earth, they had always looked up at the stars, and had also looked far away at the starry sky of the Perseus Arm, but because of the location and perspective, they could not see anything clearly.

This is already a completely unfamiliar star field.

None of the stars that people used to be familiar with are here, whether it is the twenty-eight constellations such as Jiaoxiu, Fangxiu, Xinxiu, Douxiu, Niuxiu, Kangxiu, or the Big Dipper such as Tianshu, Tianquan, Tianji, Tianxuan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, Yaoguang, or Ziweixing, Tianjin Four, Gouchen. Even the Zhoutian stars are not here.

Humans have gone too far, completely out of the scope of the ancients looking up at the stars, so that when they look around, there is no star that is familiar. If there are really various star gods and emperors as in myths and legends, then humans have definitely walked out of the three realms and six paths where they live.

Of course, they are still in the legendary Tianhe, because the legendary Tianhe is the Milky Way, and it is difficult for the sixth-level civilization to leave, let alone humans.

By the way, the target star chosen by humans this time is an ordinary yellow planet from the spectrum, similar to the sun, but not exactly the same. The mass and diameter are slightly larger than the sun, but not much, and still belong to the ranks of dwarf stars.

This type of star is very common in the starry sky, but this star system is like the solar system, which is a single star main sequence star with a relatively small proportion.

Under its light, six planets are warmed. There are many dwarf planets outside the orbits of the six planets that are difficult to find. They are much smaller than Pluto and have been silently orbiting in the cold starry sky far away from the main sequence since their birth.

Over and over again, I don’t know how many years have passed.

As the pathfinder of the Star Alliance, the exploration spacecraft of the Red Flame Civilization has arrived here a long time ago and completed the exploration of this star system one step ahead of the large fleet. There is not one probe, but a lot of probes, so the exploration of a star system is not one planet at a time, but multiple points and multiple planets at the same time.

The Chiyan Civilization, which was responsible for the exploration mission, was very experienced. They not only conducted exploration on various planets, but also sent many probes to patrol the empty areas between the planetary orbits. They did not let go of any meteorites or floating asteroids in space at any moment. They were very careful.

The Star Alliance was a union of wandering civilizations. Exploration and realm were related to the life and death of this group. They could not be careless or careless.

Only with such careful exploration could the Star Alliance fleet enter the star system to dock and replenish supplies. If any dangerous situation was found during the exploration, the fleet would turn around and leave. In such a large cosmic environment, careless civilizations basically could not go far.

And it was precisely with such careful exploration that the Star Alliance discovered the abnormality of this star in advance. Oh no, the star was a normal star, but the planet orbiting in its orbit was a little strange.

Especially the second planet. According to human astronomers who received the data sent back by the Chiyan Civilization exploration team, the orbit of this planet seemed to be somewhat out of tune with other planets, as if it was an alien.

That was a planet, so it could be an alien.

However, after the star system model was established and the orbit simulation calculation was carried out, humans still felt that it was an alien. The reason is that its orbit is not on the star's ecliptic plane. Indeed, there are many planets that do not orbit on the ecliptic plane, or in other words, almost all planets cannot orbit completely on the ecliptic plane, but travel slightly away from it, so from this point of view, this planet is actually quite normal.

Key After calculation and analysis, astronomers pointed out another strange point. They pointed out that it is impossible for a planet in this orbital position to have such a stable orbit. The reason why this planet has a stable orbit is the result of the combined gravitational force of its two satellites and the first and third planets in this star system.

And this planet seems to have been deliberately inserted into this orbit, but this insertion is very clever, because it is completely in line with the gravitational force between the major planets and stars. If it was really inserted by mistake, then the civilization that did so would definitely have technological attainments that humans cannot match.

Of course, this is just a brainstorming idea by human astronomers after getting the data of this planet. In fact, most people think it is impossible. It can be said that it is the natural evolution of stars, but there must be many coincidences of gravitational forces to form such a structure.

If there were not enough data in the field of stellar evolution models and astronomy, humans would not have discovered this suspicious phenomenon.
