Interstellar Industrial Age

v3 Chapter 24: , 3 go system

The outer periphery of the Centaurus galaxy, the Orte nebula belt, a spaceship is rapidly flying towards the Centaurus galaxy. The various detection instruments on the spaceship are full of vitality, and the special electromagnetic signal receiver is like a pair of huge Ears are silently receiving electromagnetic signals from the solar system and the Centaurus galaxy.

"Didi ~ Didi ~"

The unmanned spacecraft is controlled by intelligent programs. Of course, because it uses quantum communication technology, it can also be remotely controlled by the control center on the solar system side.

From the beginning of the design of this spacecraft, more artificial intelligence program control systems were used, so at this time the spaceship was still under the control of intelligent programs.

"I didn't receive the signal we sent a few years ago."

In Mars' outer space, in the space city where the Xinghan Institute of Cosmic Astronomy is located, scientists are very busy. Through quantum communication, they can maintain real-time communication with spacecraft as far as 4.3 light years away.

A few years ago, scientists carried out a series of scientific tests and built a very large electromagnetic wave signal generator. The electromagnetic wave signal was regularly generated towards the Centaurus galaxy, so for today, take a look Can this spaceship receive electromagnetic signals from the solar system?

"It seems that there is a reason we cannot receive information from the universe. The Centaur galaxy and the solar system are so close. We have also built a large electromagnetic wave transmitter and launched it in a directional manner. But here is the Centaur galaxy. Still can't receive it. "

Liu Peiqiang touched his chin and thought.

"Is it because we just missed our time?"

King Ling Songling thought about it and asked.

"No, four years ago, we continued to emit wave after wave of electromagnetic wave signals. The time lasted for several months, and in the follow-up period, we will periodically repeat It is absolutely impossible to miss the signal once. "

"And these are strictly calculated, and absolutely no such low-level error will occur."

Xiaolong battle is complicated, he shook his head and said.

"The propagation of electromagnetic waves will be affected by many factors. The cosmic void is theoretically vacuum, but this is not the case. The last time Dragon Source Air did not say that space and time are the main elements that make up the universe. Maybe we think it is a vacuum Void, it is full of space, and this space may have a huge weakening of electromagnetic waves. "

"It may not be obvious in a short range, but as the distance is long, the electromagnetic waves are weakened very much, and may even be absorbed by the space."

培 Liu Peiqiang remembered the words of the last Longyuan Air Force in his mind and made a bold guess.

"Your inference is not completely unreasonable."

Qin Yi looked at Liu Peiqiang and said with a smile.

On the other side, far away from the Centaurus galaxy, the spacecraft is advancing in the void, and various detection instruments are beginning to continuously collect information in the Centaurus galaxy.

A long distance of 4.3 light years ago, even though it is the most powerful space telescope, it can only observe the situation of three stars in the Centaurus galaxy, and it knows nothing about this neighbor.

But now the spaceship has arrived in the Centaurus galaxy. Under the exploration of various advanced scientific instruments, the situation in the Centaurus galaxy can naturally be known very quickly.

"Didi ~ Didi ~"

The detection instrument on the spacecraft continuously collected various data, and then began to computer everything in the Centaurus galaxy.

"Star A Centaurus, 1.1 times the mass of the sun and 1.2 times the diameter of the sun ~"

"Star B Centaur has a mass 0.9 times that of the sun and a diameter 0.88 times that of the sun."

"C Star Centaur, also known as the neighboring star, has a mass of 0.12 times that of the sun and a diameter one-seventh of the diameter of the sun ~"

The first information that came out was the data, mass, and volume of the three stars in the Centaur galaxy. Generally, scientists use the sun as a reference when calculating the mass and volume of stars.

In this way, you can know what type of star this star is, whether it is a dwarf, giant or supergiant, a black dwarf, a dwarf dwarf, a red dwarf, a yellow dwarf, or a white dwarf, or a red giant, blue giant, red supergiant and many more.

Different types of stars have different characteristics, according to the evolution stage of the star: protostar, main sequence star, red giant star or red supergiant.

Among them, the protostar is the newly formed star, the main sequence star is the youth to middle age, and the red giant and red supergiant are the old stars.

According to the density of stars: black holes, neutron stars, white dwarfs, main sequence stars, red giants or red supergiants, the density of stars decreases in order.

Take the sun as an example. The sun is a main sequence star, a single star, a G-type star, and a yellow dwarf star. After about 4.5-5 billion years, the sun will no longer be the main sequence star, it will become a red giant star, then a white dwarf star, and eventually a black dwarf star.

Stars are the masters of a planetary system. Everything in the entire planetary system is dominated by stars. If you know and understand the condition of the stars, you can roughly analyze the internal conditions of the planetary system.

The stars A and B in the Centaurus galaxy are not much different from the sun in terms of mass or volume. They are both red dwarfs, while the star Centaur C is too small and small, although it is also a red dwarf. Series, but it shows that the question is much lower and much lower than the sun.

But the closest to the Sun is this Centaurus C star, which is only 4.2 light-years away, but the Centaurus galaxy is a triplet system, and the three stars are rotating with each other, so it is now that the Centaurus C star is farther from the solar system. Recently, after many years, it may be A-Star or B-Star Centaur.

"Star A Centaur is surrounded by 7 planets, Star B Centaur is surrounded by 5 planets, Star C Centaur is only surrounded by one planet."

Soon, the detection instrument also detected the number and position of planets in the Centaurus galaxy, orbits, cycles, masses, rotations, types, and so on.

And began to draw a star map in the Centaurus galaxy in the computer. The three stars gathered together as if three behemoths were competing for territory and stuff.

Massive stars have strong gravitation, grabbing more sites and planets, smaller mass stars have less mass and gravitational force, grabbing fewer sites and planets, and the poor Centaur C star has only one planet.

"According to the information currently available, we believe that in the Centaurus galaxy, the four rocky planets A3, A4, B3, and B4 will most likely give birth to life."

"These four planets are in a similar situation to our planet, with a moderate distance from the stars, within the habitable zone of life in the planetary system, and all rocky planets. It is very likely that a life planet will be born."

不过 "However, the masses of the two planets A4 and B3 are much smaller than the mass of the earth, and they are just about the same as Mars, which may not be conducive to the birth of life."

"The most likely are the two planets A3 and B4. As for the planet C of Centaur, it is too close, and it is very unlikely that it is a life planet."

As soon as the data was transmitted back to Earth, scientists began to analyze these planets of the Centaurus galaxy, inferring that those planets might give birth to life.

"The triple system is too chaotic ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ The planets are orbiting stars, and the stars are constantly rotating with each other. I think there may be no births in this Centaurus galaxy, and there may be no life The planet exists. "

Some scientists also think that the system of the Centaurus galaxy is too chaotic. Compared to the single-star planetary system such as the solar system, everything in the Centaurus galaxy is not stable enough.

The birth of life requires a stable environment. Life is too fragile, but it is also full of miracles.

"Everything is difficult to say, but the answer will be revealed soon."

Scientists continue to look forward to it, as long as the spaceship actually enters the Centaurus galaxy and obtains more information, scientists can know whether there is a life planet in this Centaurus galaxy, and whether a civilization has been bred. Which level of development has reached.

The spacecraft continued to fly towards the Centaurus galaxy, and at the same time began to launch detectors around the Centaurus galaxy to collect more information.

After the launch of the detector, the spacecraft also began to slow down slowly. The current speed has accelerated after a long acceleration period. This slowdown also requires a relatively long process.

While decelerating, the detectors on the spacecraft are still not idle, especially the electromagnetic signal receiver, constantly pointing at the interior of the Centaurus galaxy.

"Didi ~ Didi ~"

When the spacecraft flew past the Orto Nebula belt and officially entered the periphery of the Centaur galaxy, the electromagnetic signal receiver on the spacecraft finally responded.
