How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 208: Seed plan

After the conversation with Marvin ended, the Führer turned his attention to other scientific chiefs.

  

   "Several people, the empire has some questions that I want to consult with you. I hope you can use your knowledge to solve the empire."

  

   These scientific chiefs behaved for a while, their expressions faintly stunned, and then they became cautious, just because the Führer used the empire instead of himself in the words of the Führer just now.

  

   This shows that in the following conversation, the head of state is asking them on behalf of the empire as a whole, and its importance will be directly related to the foundation of the empire.

  

   Under the solemn gaze of several scientific chiefs, the head of state slowly spoke.

  

   "The war is about to begin. Just in case, the empire needs to sow some seeds. With the current technology, can it be possible to sail across stars safely and reliably? I want to know the feasibility of sailing across stars."

  

   "If it's purely safe and reliable interstellar travel, the empire already has such technology, but it cannot carry people."

  

The answer was Neil, the chief astrophysicist of the Empire. He participated in the design of all space vehicles and buildings in the Empire. Although it cannot be said that every field has reached the top, it can be said that the comprehensive understanding of the space system is the first. No one dared to say second, no one in the room had more say than him.

  

"The safety and stability of interstellar navigation is directly proportional to the navigation time. The longer the navigation time, the greater the probability of problems midway. Moreover, the celestial bodies are always moving. The slower the navigation, the easier it is to lose the destination, so the speed should be The faster the better. According to my expectation, the safest and most stable interstellar navigation is the subluminal navigation."

  

   "The empire can already sail at sub-light speed?!"

  

   The head of state who had been calm and steady couldn't help but be moved, not only him, but also other generals. Neil nodded, but shook his head again.

  

   "It is only possible to achieve the sub-light speed of three adult weight objects. Taking into account factors such as survival, deceleration, human body tolerance, food, etc., it is still not feasible to carry people."

  

   "I am curious, how do you achieve sub-light speed? With the empire's existing propulsion technology, the efficiency should not reach that level."

  

   General Mopusch asked curiously, he could not think of any way Neil could sail at sub-light speed.

  

   Neil shook his head slightly and told the head of state his sub-light speed navigation method.

  

"The so-called propulsion, in essence, is still converting energy into kinetic energy. In an empty place like the universe, this essence is very obvious. Whether it is a shell or a missile, it can be easily intercepted by a laser and changed. The difference between thinking about sitting on a missile and sitting on a battleship is not just that one can and the other can’t? To achieve sub-light speed navigation, it does not have to be limited to the propulsion engine."

  

"The ring of the parent star can be used as an acceleration orbit, giving the launched object a high initial velocity at the beginning, and then we can arrange a focusing lens in the stellar orbit, and use the pulse beam to continue to accelerate the object that has departed from the orbit. Calculated, in this process, objects will eventually leave our galaxy at sub-light speed."

  

   "How to accelerate to subluminal speed is never a problem. The problem is how to slow down. It can be done through the long distance between stars, but after reaching the destination? How should the projectile stop?"

  

   At this time, every general suddenly asked.

  

   "Isn't it okay to use antimatter?"

  

   "No, the quality of the projectile has determined that it cannot rely on itself to slow down, even if it uses the empire's precious antimatter."

  

   The meeting fell into a short silence, the head of state did not say anything, his eyes were dim, and he seemed to be thinking about other things.

  

   At this time, someone broke the silence.

  

   "Head of State, I have an idea, maybe it can solve the problem of deceleration."

  

   A chief science officer spoke to everyone and explained his plan.

  

   "The gravitational force from stars can be used to slow down."

  

   "You mean, that gravitational slingshot accelerates?"

  

   The head of state's gaze fell on the person, and he was a little confused about the other party's plan. According to his understanding, the gravitational slingshot was used to accelerate the aircraft, but they were discussing how to decelerate.

  

"Yes, but you got it wrong, head of state. The gravitational slingshot can accelerate or decelerate, and let the projectile decelerate against the rotation of the celestial body. The kinetic energy consumed comes from the rotation of the celestial body. It’s perfectly fine for the missile to slow down."

  

   In order to facilitate understanding, a projection that reverses the rotation of the planet appeared in front of the head of state.

  

   Looking at the projection, tapping the table with his finger, the head of state is thinking about the feasibility of this slowdown plan.

  

   "But such a deceleration, after the projectile reaches its destination, it may continue to decelerate for thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years. No one can say what will happen in the process.

  

   Regarding this question, the scientific chief already had an idea in his mind, and he answered.

  

   "You can gradually narrow the distance to the star during the deceleration process. The closer the distance is, the greater the gravitational force, the more obvious the deceleration effect will be."

  

   "But this way, the missile needs to carry fuel, and the quality will undoubtedly increase." Neil reminded.

  

  At this time, another chief science officer spoke up and proposed.

  

   "The head of state, in fact, can also join the light sail technology."

  

   "Guangfan? The product that you put forward the light pressure theory not long ago?"

  

   The head of state turned his eyes to the man, and the man nodded and replied.

  

"Yes, the light pressure comes from the stars instead of the projectile. Using the light sail to change direction, the fuel on the projectile can be banned. Only a small capacitor bottle is enough. At the same time, the light sail can also use the light energy to generate electricity. In this way, the projectile will not have the problem of power exhaustion."

  

   In this way ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ sub-light navigation between stars, finally there is a solution that sounds feasible.

  

   However, the imperial seed needs not only sub-light speed navigation, but also some other technologies. At this time, the head of state, half of the boulder in his heart, cast an inquiring look at his sister.

  

   "Marvin, how is your hibernation technique progressing?"

  

   "Still in the experimental stage, the success rate is 35%, it will take some time"

  

   "That means it can be put into use. Thirty-five percent is enough."

  

   Before Marvin finished speaking, the Führer interrupted her. The success rate can be made up by people. The most important thing in the empire is people. The longer the time is, the more the changes, the seed plan should be implemented as soon as possible.

  

   Sub-light sailing, light sailing, hibernation, cloning, and heads of state connected these technologies in their hearts, and the empire’s seed plan gradually took shape.

  

   "The last piece of the seed puzzle is also collected. If there is anything worse, it should be a suitable candidate."
