Voyage of the Stars

Of course, this alone is far from enough to create negative energy.

Because the negative energy produced by just one set of quantum shutters is really negligible, humans must expand the scale when making creations. There is a way, and human technology can do it, which is to combine groups of quantum shutters to form a structure like an integrated transistor, and then arrange and combine them.

Humans call this device a negative energy generator.

Although the name is called a negative energy generator, it actually also produces positive energy, but it is isolated by humans.

Therefore, in terms of design, there will be two energy channels connected to this set of equipment, one is a negative energy channel and the other is a positive energy channel.

Based on the separation of the positive and negative energy fields of the laser energy state by the quantum shutter, the positive and negative energy will enter the two channels respectively and then be used by humans.

Positive energy will be directed to some equipment that needs to do work, such as being converted into daily electricity for human warships, or it will be stored as electrical energy. In other words, this path links the conventional energy utilization system.

Negative energy is quite special. In theory, it is the necessary energy for planetary warp engines, but humans have not yet truly mastered the theory of everything and cannot create that thing.

So the negative energy produced at this stage is basically only used for various related negative energy experiments. After all, it is the first time that humans have produced negative energy. It is a scarce thing. Almost all scientific teams are drooling over it. They are eager to obtain negative energy so that they can study its properties and characteristics more carefully, and finally master it thoroughly, and use it to serve human civilization and strengthen human civilization.

And to study and utilize negative energy, it is necessary to solve its preservation problem.

Humans must have the technology to manufacture its storage devices, just like humans store electrical energy. Of course, negative energy is quite special and cannot be stored in the form of positive energy, because it is called negative energy but it is actually negative matter, just a different name for different states.

So its preservation method is both complex and simple. If it is directly preserved in the form of negative energy, it must be difficult or even impossible, but it is much easier to preserve it in the form of negative matter.

Negative matter is not antimatter, it will not annihilate with matter, so humans can use normal containers to contain it. There is a repulsive force between it and the container wall, the size of which is related to the mass of it and the container, and the value obeys the law of universal gravitation, but the direction is opposite, becoming a repulsive force.

So the container can be made of normal matter, but not just any bottle will do, because the nature of negative matter determines that it cannot exist in the natural environment. In the current cosmic environment, it will instantly become negative energy, and then a positive energy will immediately appear out of thin air to submerge it.

So the difficulty lies in how to keep the negative energy in the container in the form of negative matter.

And this involves the theory of everything.

Through years of observation and experiments on natural wormholes, scientists have found that in order to create such an environment, it is necessary to create a position based on the interweaving of the four fundamental forces, that is, a super force field.

Well, in fact, it can also be stored in a container in the form of negative energy, but the container must be made of the Fermi condensate used for quantum shutter materials, because that kind of material can isolate positive and negative energy. In the use of negative energy, humans also intend to use this material to make a negative energy transmission pipeline.

However, if it is stored in the form of negative energy, the volume occupied is too large. The difference between negative matter and negative energy of the same negative mass is like the difference between dry ice and carbon dioxide gas of the same mass, with a huge volume difference.

It can be said that negative matter is the ultimate compressed state of negative energy.

Therefore, the best solution for energy preservation is definitely negative matter.

However, the theory of everything is not yet fully mature, and humans are not yet able to create such a force field environment. They can only use fermion condensed matter as a container to make some negative energy to meet the experimental needs of scientists.

There is always a process for everything. Although it cannot be achieved overnight, humans have seen the bright future of the theory of everything. At this time, truly mastering the theory of everything has changed from "just around the corner" to "within reach".

It's very close. Perhaps if negative energy is thoroughly studied, it can be truly mastered. Humans who master the technology of negative energy production will inevitably move faster and faster.

Then the theory of everything, the theory of everything, and the super unified theory are really within reach!

The mysterious force of gravity is about to be conquered!

Humans are full of energy.

It is worth mentioning that this method of making negative energy also consumes energy, that is, there must be input energy, and the total amount of input energy is always less than the sum of output energy, and the same is true in the preparation process of negative energy.

In fact, when the news that negative energy was successfully made by humans in the laboratory spread to society, people thought that the theory that perpetual motion machines are unrealizable was going to be broken.

Many people thought at the time: positive energy does positive work, negative energy does negative work, and the sum of the two is no work, doesn't it mean that the sum of positive and negative energy is zero, then it stands to reason that even if the total input energy is small, it is completely possible to produce endless positive and negative energy

However, they overlooked the fact that doing positive work and doing negative work in physics cannot be directly +1 plus -1 equals zero as in mathematical calculations. Doing negative work is also work, and the production process also needs to provide energy to the quantum shutter, which has intermediate losses.

The law of conservation of energy has not been overturned.

Human scientists are very clear about this. Even if the law of conservation of energy is really overturned one day, it is not a problem of the law of conservation of energy itself, but the universe rules have been modified, and the energy input to modify the universe rules itself will exceed the energy obtained by the civilization after the law of conservation of energy is overturned.

The second law of thermodynamics is so tenacious and cruel!

It makes a powerful civilization like the sixth level dare not guarantee that it can complete the long voyage to the stars.

Yue Yuan also has a deep understanding of this. He remembers Yi Kai Zeng told him that in the Earth era, some movies and cartoons often appeared in the technology that claimed to overturn the law of conservation of energy, such as creating things out of thin air.

He also showed Yue Yuan the animations in his inventory.

Yue Yuan naturally read it as a joke, but such a story also has some inspiration, such as the point of overturning the conservation of energy. Although he knows that it is definitely nonsense, if the technology is advanced enough, perhaps some local entropy reduction technology can really be developed. And such technology, as long as the user is not allowed to know the source of energy, for the user, it is not just creating something out of nothing to overturn the conservation of energy.

But this kind of thing is just a brainstorming. If there is such technology, the long voyage will be simple. Thinking of this, Yue Yuan suddenly remembered the description of the long voyage by the pioneers. The seventh-level civilization truly mastered the technology of large-scale energy extraction from the universe.

This is also the reason why civilizations above the sixth level are called cosmic civilizations.

Extracting energy from the vacuum, vacuum zero-point energy, seems to be inexhaustible, borrowing the energy of the universe without returning it. But is it really so?

Will it be that somewhere in the universe, unknown to all civilizations that use this energy, something will happen because of the unscrupulous extraction of this energy?

Maybe they know

At this moment, Yue Yuan, who suddenly had a brainstorming, felt that the reason why civilizations above the sixth level almost disappeared might be inexhaustible with this kind of thing!
