Interstellar Industrial Age

v3 Chapter 116: , The need for external exploration

In a void in the asteroid belt of the solar system, a large expanse of space buildings stood quietly in the void, and each space building was brightly lit and extremely busy.

The void between space buildings, the spaceships coming and going, private aircraft, and so on, flow like a highway in the interstellar space era, which runs through every corner of the void and transports a variety of goods.

The space building where Xinghan First Military Industry Group is located is equally busy here.

With the expansion of Xinghan ’s territory again, the exchanges between galaxies urgently need more spacecraft of spacecraft with curving speed. Orders from Xinghan ’s various fields are like snowflakes, so that every employee of the First Military Industry Group is busy. Out of breath.

The manufacture of curved engines is by far the most technologically advanced. At present, only Xinghan First Military Industry Group and Xinghe Technology Group, which are affiliated to the Xinghan National Academy of Science, can manufacture them.

The First Military Industry Group is a military industry group affiliated to the Xinghan National Academy of Sciences. Its main customers are Xinghan officials and the Xinghan military. Generally, it will not take other orders.

As for Xinghe Technology Group, this is the predecessor of Xinghan, the industry of Xinghan leader Qin Yijia. The industry of Xinghe Technology Group involves almost all fields of Xinghan, from finance, banking to electronics, spacecraft manufacturing, and even ordinary people's living The daily necessities needed, vegetables, food, etc., are involved in almost all industries.

All of this naturally has the old foundation of the original Galaxy Technology Group. Of course, it is more people's trust in the Galaxy Technology Group. No matter what business they do, as long as it is an industry under the Galaxy Technology Group, the business is very good. Very recognized and willing to support.

And Xinghe Technology Group has always been a role model for Xinghan's business community. No matter which field it is involved in, it is definitely a benchmark in this field.

The products of Xinghe Technology Group are cheap enough, the quality is good enough, and the cost performance is the highest. Moreover, because of Qin Yijia's industry, they pay great attention to their reputation and cherish their feathers. They have always provided the most cost-effective service and product.

In the high-tech field, Galaxy Technology Group is also a leader among them. The research strength of the Galaxy Technology Research Institute affiliated to the Galaxy Technology Group is not much worse than that of the Xinghan National Academy of Sciences. After all, the Xinghan National Academy of Sciences was originally from Xinghe The Science and Technology Research Institute is separated, and the two are almost indistinguishable from each other.

Xinghe Technology Group focuses more on serving Xinghan people. Therefore, Xinghe Technology Group's customers are oriented to the civilian sector, and generally do not take Xinghan official orders.

At this time, Qin Yi was accompanied by Yang Hongyan, Liu Peiqiang, Lu Qingwei and others in the spaceship manufacturing plant of Xinghan First Military Industry Group to inspect the First Military Industry Group.

After years of continuous research, the trend engine technology has become more and more mature, and the curved engine manufactured has become more and more powerful. The latest manufactured curved engine can jump a long distance of 10 light years at a time. This performance is The original crank engine was five times more powerful.

Because the curved engine technology has become more advanced and can jump more distant distances at one time, Qin Yi also intends to set up several exploration fleets to explore the vast void around the solar system.

This is not Qin Yi's whim, nor a decision to shoot his head, but a very real need after Xinghan developed.

The development of Xinghan to the present has been an interstellar universe civilization. After this round of expansion, Xinghan occupies more than ten planetary systems and has 9 planets of life, which is a bit of a look.

However, Xinghan knows too little or too little about the situation of other galaxies around the solar system. As a result of Xinghan's territory, Xinghan almost knows nothing about the surrounding planetary systems.

Is there a powerful interstellar universe civilization within a few hundred light years and thousands of light years around the solar system?

What is the scope of these civilizations?

What about geographic location?

To what extent has the level of civilization developed?

Whether the foreign side has strong aggressiveness, and so on, these Xinghan do not know, out of the territory of Xinghan, just like the blind, do not know the current situation at all.

It is only known that the position of the solar system is above the Milky Way Orion cantilever, and other information is unknown.

In the past, you could still expand in the interstellar universe by relying on your advanced technology and powerful power, but it was not possible to stay so reckless.

Naturally, you have to find out about your environment, the surrounding situation, etc., so as not to hit the iron plate in the future and your head will burst.

Powerful civilizations abound in the interstellar universe, and always have awe for the universe.

Therefore, after this round of expansion, Qin Yi planned to stop first, while digesting the existing site, while also preparing to explore the situation around the alien Chinese map, especially the Orion cantilever situation should be explored clearly.

According to the current situation, life in the universe is very common and civilization is also very common. In this round of expansion, only two planetary systems have no naturally-born life planets, and other planetary systems have natural life planets. .

On these naturally-born life planets, there are only a few planets with no civilization on them. They are at the stage of primitive planets, and all others have civilizations. The Kara civilization of the Sirius galaxy has developed to the apex of level 2 universe civilization.

It can be seen that this life and civilization are widely present in the universe. There are thousands of stars in the range of hundreds of light years around the solar system. This means that at least thousands of civilizations will be born here. There may be so many powerful civilizations among thousands of civilizations.

Xinghe will definitely continue to expand in the future, and with the passage of time, the population base of Xinghan is getting larger and larger, and the driving force and demand for this expansion are getting greater and greater. As the population grows, more and more resources are available.

It may take decades for the expansion from the solar system to the Centaurus galaxy, and then from the expansion of two galaxies to the present site for another decades.

But the further behind, the larger the expansion site, and the less time it takes, because once the technology of this population comes up, its own strength will increase geometrically and the expansion will be more rapid.

After this round is almost consumed, Qin Yi estimates that the next round of expansion will be to annex thousands of light stars around the entire solar system for hundreds of light years.

This does n’t make sense of the environment around you. It ’s definitely not working. If it ’s just a few low-level civilizations, there ’s nothing to be afraid of, and you ’re afraid of encountering a powerful civilization.

Moreover, Xinghan has developed to the present. To be honest, it is also eager to enter the stage of the interstellar universe. It may be to make friends with the powerful civilizations in the interstellar universe or to become rivals. In short, it is eager to enter a wider stage.

The civilizations we are in contact with are not enough. The Earth Federation is still confined to the earth. It is still negotiating with Xinghan every year. I hope to use the earth to exchange a few planets in addition to the speed of the engine technology. Qin Yi's side has been Dragging.

Yoda civilization is a cultivation civilization. At present, the degree of cultivation is relatively ordinary, and it is not an interstellar civilization. As for the others, it goes without saying.

At this time, the situation of Xinghan is like constantly exploring and exploring in the dark world, and knowing too little about the surrounding world.

"Not only can our latest curved engine be able to jump farther, but it can also be more accurate. The range of error can now be basically controlled within 10 astronomical units."

A talented scientist in Xinghan Space Science, and also an absolute tycoon in the field of crank engine manufacturing, Long Yuankong is proud to introduce Qin Yi to the latest crank engine.

"10 astronomical units?"

Qin Yi also nodded when he heard it. Although the speed engine is powerful, the error is very large when flying at speed. This error is too large, sometimes it means a waste of time, but more importantly it means that it is very dangerous. .

"In addition to being equipped with powerful curved engines, this time, we have equipped all space battleships with the most powerful weapons. Our latest energy weapons and gravity weapons have an attack range of 20 million kilometers. It was ten times stronger than before. "

"But unfortunately, the energy shield and magnetic shield technology have not been successfully researched. It is still necessary to go out carefully, and it is best not to engage with other powerful civilizations ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ Otherwise it is still very dangerous. . "

Long Yuankong pointed to several space warships moored in the dock and said that these space warships are not large and are all Qinglong-class space warships.

Every space battleship is brand new and brand new. The energy cannons and gravity cannons above look very embarrassing, and it is not a mess at first glance.

"Isn't the energy shield technology developed yet?"

When Qin Yi heard it, he frowned slightly. The energy shield technology was the shield of the battleship. Now Xinghan ’s battleship attack weapon is available, but the defense still depends on the thick skin and thick, or the steel itself.

However, this alone is far from feasible. I knew from the last battle with Kara civilization that even the energy technology possessed by Kara civilization can damage Xinghan ’s warships. If you are lucky enough, you may be able to kill one. Where are the two battleships.

If you encounter an opponent of the same level, relying only on thick skin and thick meat will have no effect. It will not matter at all. Only by developing an energy shield or a magnetic field shield, it is safer to have a powerful shield.
