Voyage of the Stars

Every scientific team has its own point of view, and some agree with several points of view at the same time. This type of scientific researchers have no opinion, but not having an opinion does not mean that they have no ability. Their skills are still very good.

They will do the scientific research work assigned by the project team and complete it excellently.

They are also indispensable screws for the scientific progress of human civilization, and everyone has their own role. Since humans set foot on the starry sky, no scientific research has been completed entirely by one person.

Those famous scientists only have their own scientific research team. Behind their achievements, there are teams supporting them.

Just like the successful development of room-temperature superconductors by human civilization, it was not the credit of Xu Zhenyi alone, but the credit of him and his entire team.

And there are many such scientific teams in human civilization now, including large scientific research teams and smaller scientific research teams. They are led by scientists with top achievements in their respective fields.

The number of people in these scientific research teams ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, and the leading scientists of the scientific research teams are not static, but like the selection of officials in human civilization, they are elected once every five hundred years.

However, unlike the competition that is biased towards the official system, these scientists who lead their respective fields do not need many people to vote for the election, but only relevant scientific personnel will judge.

The person who talked to Yue Yuan on the Tianqin today is one of the many leading scientific research team scientists, named Zheng Jiuyuan, who is only 30-50 years old, very young, and is currently committed to studying new theories from the perspective of negative matter. He has a scientific research team of tens of thousands of people under him.

He is a new member after the expansion of the Tianqin. He is currently a part-time professor at a university on the Tianqin, with a term of 500 years.

Not long ago, he had just held a meeting with other scientific research teams on other scientific research ships. Yue Yuan also attended. Because he was interested in the views he expressed at the meeting, he asked him to speak after the meeting.

The other person is Yue Yuan’s old acquaintance Yi Kai. Due to the advancement of genetic technology, he is no longer the old man in his seventies or eighties, but looks like a man in his fifties.

Yes, human genetic technology can extend lifespan, but it cannot achieve rejuvenation. Yi Kai's appearance can become 20 years younger, which is considered to be a lot of maintenance technology. Of course, his body is still very strong.

Yi Kai is here to introduce the recent research progress of life science to Yue Yuan, and to reminisce about the past. According to him, it has become very difficult for human civilization to make another breakthrough in life science technology related to lifespan, even with the addition of new biosphere resources as research materials, as if it has encountered some kind of technological barrier.

Fourteen thousand five hundred years seems to be the limit.

In fact, after obtaining the resources of the Booker planet, Yi Kai has been committed to research in this area, but after so many years, there has been no progress. Several types of life potions have been made, but those potions seem to have different ingredients and are also effective on the human body, but in fact they cannot produce a superposition effect with the original human life potion.

The effect of the new life potion is also five thousand years, but it cannot produce a superposition effect with the life potion that humans had before.

At present, humans have a total of six kinds of life potions, which are numbered by humans. The effects are 200, 400, 800, 3000, 4000, and 5000 years, which add up to a total of 14,500 years. If humans die of old age for a hundred years, they will have a lifespan of 15,000 years.

This lifespan can be lived from ancient times to the present in the Earth era. If there is such a thing as time travel, the people of human civilization today will be thrown into history, and they will be immortals.

But for cosmic civilization, it is far from enough, so both humans and other cosmic civilizations are constantly researching, and some civilized individuals have even changed their own forms of existence in order to exist longer.

Now humans also have this intention. Since the direction of life potions has not been broken through, many teams have turned their attention to other fields.

There are two main directions, one is the computer field, and the other is the spiritual consciousness field.

The former's idea is to develop more powerful and mass-produced computers, and then use superb computer technology to replace human brains with computers to achieve the purpose of replacing mechanical bodies.

The latter also wants to replace the human body, also a mechanical body, but their route is different and their goals are different. They mainly want to use the advanced technology in the field of spiritual consciousness to create something that can store the entire spiritual soul of human beings, and then use the legendary consciousness uploading technology to upload human consciousness to that device, so as to serve as the central brain of the mechanical body.

Yue Yuan once learned about the concept of this technology. Scientists imagine that it will be realized after a major breakthrough in the field of spiritual consciousness. At present, the scientific research teams in these directions are still grass-roots teams, and they are all waiting for the theory of everything.

Because they believe that human spirit, soul, and consciousness are born naturally in the environment of the entire universe, and the most obvious thing in nature is the four basic forces, so they believe that human spirit, soul, and consciousness are also the product of the interaction of various forces. Therefore, if you want to create something that can accommodate and transfer it, you need to have a universal theory as a foundation.

Such a consciousness transfer is a real complete transfer, otherwise it may cause the consequence that everyone is most worried about - stifling creativity.

Yi Kai did not agree with their research, but he was powerless to stop these ideas and research. He could only move forward silently on his own path and then use his achievements to prevent humans from evolving in this direction.

Yi Kai felt from the bottom of his heart that the mechanical body was a road to self-destruction, at least in the Milky Way, so he had always opposed the mechanization of human bodies.

Oh no, it was not always opposed, but after humans learned about the existence of electronic warships, he firmly opposed it on the surface.

Humans do not know the specific capabilities of electronic warships, but they can make certain judgments about it from clues in various information. First, the awakeners were defeated, which is enough to show the power of electronic warships.

Secondly, in that war, countless level 6 civilizations were defeated by electronic warships, which shows that electronic warships must have range strike means.

The last important news is that the silicon-based consortium is simply terrified of electronic warships. This news is very important. Humans do not rule out the existence of "stone men" in the silicon-based consortium, but the most common silicon-based civilization is definitely computer-based.

Therefore, humans can conclude that electronic warships are likely to have some kind of lethality against computers and even electronics.

For this reason alone, humans cannot take the path of mechanical body and mechanical ascension, otherwise they will definitely be killed by electronic warships at the first sight, or even wiped out.
