We are here.

Almost at the moment the command was issued, the entire command room was like a machine. Every researcher and engineer sitting in this machine was like a gear on a clockwork, and it was running step by step. stand up.

On the orbit of Mars, tens of millions of kilometers away, the two ring-shaped rings that surround the ferrous metal ball, like the rims connected to the globe, are controlled by a small electric propulsion engine. The sphere in the center of the rim slowly moves in the direction.

Finally, a large hexagonal rivet-like bulge is located at another z-particle clock floating on geosynchronous orbits tens of millions of kilometers away.

At the center of the rivet-like projection, the complex and delicate optics were exposed in the deep air as the outer casing covering the surface moved away.

At the same time, the solemn and steady commanding sounds in the ground command center.

“Open the high power laser calibrator.”

The order is issued.

The signal transmitted from the ground command center is received by the particle number a, which floats on the synchronous track.

Almost as soon as the order was received, an invisible infrared light was shot straight from the laser calibrator on the outside to the distant Mars, and captured by the beta z particle clock floating on the orbit around Mars. .

Like the squid that bites the hook, the two spherical z-particle clocks that surround the rim are aligned with each other's launch interfaces under the guidance of the laser, and a naked eye can't capture the depth of the sky. The real bond.

Looking at the large screen on the landing screen, the two metal spheres connected by the red line, as well as the track parameters that are constantly changing on the screen, and the prompt of [calibration success], the director Li standing in the command room almost mentioned the heart to the dice. Eyes, not far from Luo Wenxuan, Edward Witten and a group of physicists who were invited to the scene, did not consciously squeeze the palm of their hand.

The key moment is coming.

Whether Lu Zhou’s hyperspace theory is correct or wrong, this is definitely the moment that can be recorded in history.

Even ern has never done such an expensive experiment, even if it does not calculate the cost of launching, the sum of the cost of two z-particle clocks and their accessories, it has already approached the 500 million mark.

If they succeed, they create history and create the future.

And if it fails...

This is probably the most expensive of all the fireworks that have been let go in human history.

"The launch port is open!"

"Opened successfully!"

“The core ignition is ready to ignite!”

With a series of orders issued, after waiting for more than two hundred seconds, two z-particle clocks separated by tens of millions of kilometers were slightly twitched at the same time.

The array of hundreds of thousands of laser sources is illuminated in an instant, with a pulse of ultraviolet light of 13 million joules of energy, which is emitted from almost no dead ends in all directions to the ignition target at the center of the sphere.

The inside of the huge hollow metal ball is filled with ultraviolet light for a moment. Even the light that is not illuminated on the ignition target is reflected by eight thousand titanium-containing phosphate glasses evenly distributed inside the spherical shell, and is converged at one point.

Almost immediately before the laser array is illuminated, the outer shell of the fuel pellet, which is located on the ignition target and has a diameter of about 5 mm, is instantaneously vaporized, and under the heat of 100 million degrees of high temperature, together with the internal fuel. Being ignited.

The energy of the star is released in an instant, pushing the core of the sphere to collide, squeeze, vaporize and ionize. In this constant friction and collision, the z-particle that sways in the high-dimensional universe is finally This horrible power caught the tail!

The ground command center, the researcher sitting in front of the work station, suddenly screamed with excitement.

"A gravitational anomaly signal was observed!"

At the moment of hearing this report, Lu Zhou almost did not hesitate to reach the final order.

"Start the photon source!"

"Yes!"

With the help of the electric push engine, the two crossed rims fixed the spherical z-particle clock in the original position and maintained the alignment of the photon source transmitter and receiver under the guidance of the infrared beam. .

At the same time, the positive and negative electrons collide in an instant in the photon source at the front end of the beta z particle clock on the orbit around Mars.

With a string of invisible sparks, the entangled photons burst in an instant.

One of them is straight forward along the original orbit, while the other is captured by the gravitational field disturbed by the z-particle oscillation, projected into the already disturbed gravitational field, along an almost coincident but not completely consistent trajectory , ran to the receivers tens of millions of kilometers away.

Time seems to have solidified at this moment.

Looking at the timer that beat on the big screen, Lu Zhou’s heartbeat was almost synchronized with the beat.

Similarly, staring at the number of seconds of the beating, Director Li’s mouth kept talking about something, just like praying, waiting for the final result of the experiment.

The Secretary-General Luo, who is standing behind him, Professor Witten, Professor Welzek, and the representatives of the imr’s national councils and the scholars who were invited to the scene, almost maintained the same movement, standing there like a sculpture. I cast my gaze on the big screen and stuck to it.

Finally, when the number on the No. 1 timer jumped to 207.1s, the atmosphere in the command center seemed to be frozen and solidified there.

The rest of the second is as long as a century.

And when it completely crossed the past, the second timer that continued to beat, like the lei tube that detonated the explosives, completely detonated the atmosphere of freezing in the command center!

The cheers sounded like squally showers, and people excitedly clenched their fists, or waved their fists, or threw their hats, documents, and even pens into the sky.

The boiling atmosphere almost turned the ceiling over.

People of different skin colors, with different languages, left tears that were equally excited and moved.

Looking at the second timer that continued to beat and ended in [270.7s], Lu Zhou’s throat was gently moved, and the taut face finally eased a light smile.

The No. 1 timer is fixed at the position of 207.1s.

In other words, the photons that first arrived at the receiver traveled a total of 65 million kilometers.

Compared to the linear distance of about 85 million kilometers between the two z-particle clocks, this photon has at least "saving" 20 million kilometers!

Under the premise of the principle of constant speed of light, the explanation of this photon reaching the "end point" in advance, only one kind of...

The homologous photon control group that followed the "end point" and the countdown of 270.7s on the second timer also proved his conclusion.

And it is proved by the time difference of 63.6s!

At this moment, all doubts and arguments were settled in an instant.

The oscillating z-particles, under the witness of everyone, disturbed the invisible, but real, gravitational bond between the Earth and Mars, and thus changed the curvature of time and space, straightening the time and space of the folds, opening a A hyperspace channel that transcends the three-dimensional space itself.

Perhaps this is not the best course.

Even its fragile soap bubbles like children blowing into the sun, rugged like a mountain path paved with gravel.

In an invisible place, there must be a better way in this universe to create a more stable, more "straight" hyperspace channel that can make that photon in less time or even less than a second. Arriving at distant Mars, even outside the solar system, the frontiers of the Milky Way.

However, its existence is still so dazzling.

It is like a vast and long epic, the first note sung by the poet.

Perhaps in the story of countless notes weaving, there will be countless heroes and great men coming on stage, but even so, even if they add all their greatness together, they can't match the light that bloomed in the first moment.

Maybe talking about it now is too far away.

But there is no doubt about it.

That is the Lu Zhou standing in this command center, once again proving his and his theory.

is correct!
