Chapter 503 - 504 Black Hole Expedition Cluster
Tens of thousands of objects shuttle between the stars. With human eyesight alone, it is difficult to see the true face of these objects without the help of optical equipment. In the universe, stars are like a lighthouse in a dark ocean. They can illuminate the surroundings, but they cannot illuminate everything. For objects at a distant scale, they The light is too cold.
In this large group, there is an individual who is different from the group. Many things that look like pot lids on the object face their concave face in front of the group.
"It's almost there. There is a black hole in front of it, three light minutes away."
"All members wake up!"
When such radio information is emitted from the object, the silence in the group melts like ice and snow, and the radio communication between individuals builds a channel to connect with each other.
"Is it finally over? Our journey."
"Oh, I didn't even know that one of my reactors stopped working."
"Where have we been?"
"It's said to be the location of the three light points."
"I saw the black hole. The gravitational lens effect is obvious, and the stars in the background are twisting."
"What a terrible celestial body."
From the dead silence to the noisy, bustling channel, tens of thousands of sub-light-speed creatures have been awakened from a long sleep.
"We have been gone for 20 years, have we?"
"Almost, it takes twenty years to travel five light years across stars with a quarter of the speed of light."
"Well, we can use a higher speed..."
"There's nothing we can do. Who can't use the high-power feedback signal against the black hole? The black hole will swallow the signal. If we use sub-light speed to go to the black hole, we don't even know when we should slow down."
In order to solve the problem of black holes, the collectors assigned a cluster of tens of thousands of sub-light-speed organisms to the wandering black hole that is difficult to observe on the route.
Their task is to breed several signaling organisms in the orbit of the black hole, which will broadcast high-power radio signals by absorbing the radiation scattered from the black hole.
In this way, the collectors of other star systems can easily capture the location of the black hole, and then plan a sublight route that is not affected by the black hole according to its trajectory.
The most important thing is to be able to accurately monitor the movement of the black hole at all times. If the black hole is pulled by the gravitational pull of the star, causing it to move sharply like a stellar system, the collector can also react and take action in time.
"Is this a black hole? The first time I actually observed it, it was so horrible..."
This is the first time that collectors have observed a black hole at close range. In the past, it was through a model established by mathematical calculation, or remote observation of light-year distance to understand the appearance of the black hole.
This shock of close observation is incomparably strong. A celestial body of the same size as the earth is dark and deep. It is the darkest place in the universe and the deepest abys in the world. If you fall into it, you will no longer have a chance to come out. It can be directly equated with death.
It is impossible to accurately define the edge of this celestial body, because there is a circle of things like a water wave wrapped around it, that is, the gravitational lens of the black hole. Time and space choose to yield in front of the powerful gravity, showing a distorted form.
This is the most extreme celestial body in the universe.
"Fortunately, this thing is not a living individual like Wei, otherwise the ethnic group will be in danger."
Some collectors in the group are grateful for this, but some collectors are puzzled.
"Why? If this kind of celestial body can exist consciously, we can let it not hurt us. Shouldn't the danger be reduced?
"Have you ever thought about why a black hole listens to us if there is consciousness? We have no value to it. The destruction of the ethnic group is purely based on the preference of that life, and it is so horrible that it is not malicious, but simply exists near the ethnic group, which is disastrous for the ethnic group.
"So that's it."
The collector who asked responded clearly that the gravity of the black hole is too strong, far more terrifying than that of a star. If you are close to a certain star system, you don't need to enter, you can force a bunch of planets in the star system to be arranged in a straight line. The so-called seven-star beads, nine-star beads are like this.
And the impact of black holes is not limited to these aspects.
However, there are also collectors who have other ideas.
"Wrong, if the black hole is conscious, the safety of the ethnic group should rise. Even if it is malicious to the ethnic group, it is not a big problem for the ethnic group."
"Why?"
"Because the speed of light cannot be exceeded, the ruler effect stretches the time of the black hole itself. Just like we sail at sub-light speed, time will pass very slowly. Looking at us from the perspective of the black hole itself, the speed of action will be very fast, close to the speed of light. When it expresses malice, the population will have enough time to escape. "
"But if the black hole consciousness expresses goodwill, with the assistance of its subjective consciousness, the ethnic group will be safer."
The collector who raised the objection explained the reason for his objection.
"But the black hole itself has its own impact, even if it is not malicious to the ethnic group."
"So as long as you keep a distance, you can ignore this. Since it is goodwill, you should keep a distance from the ethnic group. If you don't keep a distance, it is malicious, and the ethnic group can also escape."
After a while silent, the proponents of the previous threat theory agreed with the views of the opponents.
"...It seems to be like that."
In this way, the collectors walked through the communication and quickly walked the distance of two light centimeters, only one light centimeter away from the black hole. At this time, they can clearly feel the surging gravity from the black hole, and can also see the accretion disk and jets rotating around the black hole.
"Attention, everyone! Turn the direction and deflve 75 degrees to the right!"
"Are you going to slow down?"
"No, it's acceleration."
The gravity of the black hole is very terrible. The closer it is to the black hole, the higher the speed of the collectors. The gravitational potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, and the increase of kinetic energy also means the increase of speed. historical
The collectors who do not want to face the star rainbow effect deflect their course, revolve around the black hole, and rely on the centrifugal force formed by high-speed orbit to fight against the gravity from the black hole.
Tens of thousands of sub-light speed organisms are divided into several groups and begin to combine to breed large giant organisms. This is their task. The population needs to broadcast the location of the black hole in real time to improve safety.
However, there are some minor accidents in the process of carrying out this task.
"I caught a series of regular signals, which is in the direction of the black hole!"
"It won't be so accurate, right?! I used to be glad that the black hole is an unconscious object, but now this is happening!"
"Don't be nervous. There is a terrestrial planet in the black hole, and the signal should come from there."
