This Game Is Too Realistic-Chapter 297.2: Past, Present, Future
Chapter 297.2: Past, Present, Future
In the reading room on level B4 of Shelter 404.
A digital screen next to the wall was simulating the crackling sound of the flames in the fireplace, which was soothing to the mind.
The environment was really good. The only downside was that it was easy to forget about day and night.
Chu Guang did not go outside to inspect, but sat on the soft sofa, flipping through the popular science books he took off the bookshelf.
The title of the book was ‘Past, Present, Future’.
Although some of the things mentioned in it were just superficial narrations, they still opened Chu Guang's eyes.
"As early as the 20th year of the Prosperity Era, the research ship of the Federation of People has explored all the planets in the solar system, and started the exploration plan of the South Gate 2[1]."
"Until the 30th year of the Prosperity Era, the South Gate 2 exploration plan has been initially completed, and the first colony ship of the Federation of People has successfully left the port..."
"South Gate 2 star system is at least 4.24 light-years away I think."
"Does this mean that they were able to travel faster than light?"
When his eyes stopped on a certain line of description in the book, Chu Guang had a strange expression on his face.
"... Gravitational bond?"
According to the description in the book, in the Prosperity Era, physicists of the Federation of People discovered that there was a gravitational bond between two massive celestial bodies.
Aerospace engineers called it the gravitational field.
Although it took hundreds or even thousands of years for the spacecraft to fly from the solar system to other galaxies in the classical motion mode, no matter what things were used to accelerate the spacecraft, if the gravitational channel was used, the spacecraft could jump between two massive star systems using only a relatively short time.
Generally speaking, the time taken for the jump was proportional to the mass of the spacecraft and the distance from the celestial body, and inversely proportional to the mass of the celestial body. There was a specific formula to calculate it.
According to this formula, jumping between the solar system and the South Gate 2 system would be faster than jumping between Earth and Mars.
And yes, there were many gravitational channels.
It could exist between star systems, or between planets in a star system, or even between star clusters. It was just that due to the problem of the jump point, almost 99.99% of the gravitational channels were useless even if they existed.
Fortunately, the physicists of the Federation of People solved this problem. They not only discovered the method to determine the course of the gravitational channel, but also summed up the formula for calculating the jump point, so that the Federation of People could use the gravitational channel to carry out hyperspace travel.
And this also laid the foundation for the continuation of the Prosperity Era.
Controlled fusion solved the problem of energy, and the discovery of gravitational channels made it possible to colonize outside the solar system, and at the same time solved the materials and living space problems.
Human civilization also ushered in the first ascension and took the first step from the interstellar primitives to the overlords of the galaxies.
To be honest, this popular science book was written like a wish-fulfilling web novel.
Perhaps considering that the audience of popular science stories was children, the colony ships flying to South Gate 2 were simply described as a paradise on earth.
As for now...
It sounded more like a failed project. Not only did this project fail, but the entire federation was completely gone.
Chu Guang now somewhat understood Yin Fang's feelings.
The more he knew, the less hopeful he was about the future.
"Damn it..."
"If only I could come to this world a hundred years earlier!"
Speaking of which, is it too late to get hit by truck-san now?
According to the book, if Chu Guang traveled to the early or even mid-Prosperity Era, as long as he didn't court death and to enter a nurturing cabin, he may live until he died of old age; he may not even get to see the collapse of the prosperous world.
Chu Guang turned to another page.
It was a pity that this popular science book did not give a detailed explanation of the gravitational bond, just like most popular science books in the parallel world would not fully explain the derivation process of the theory of relativity, but generally summarize it as a way to find shortcuts from hyperspace.
Chu Guang knew a little bit about hyperspace, which literally meant multi-dimensional space.
That was what surprised him the most.
In modern physics, force was usually interpreted as the process of collision between the particles that made up matter and the particles that transmitted the force. In such a framework, the four fundamental forces, excluding gravity, could be consistently interpreted and calculated, and were experimentally compatible.
That was what was commonly agreed and it was also the cornerstone of modern physics.
However, the model was not perfect. Just as Newton's classical mechanics couldn't explain the laws of motion of massive celestial bodies, this model also had limitations of the times. It couldn't be perfectly compatible with gravity.
So someone put forward the string theory. Under the conjectured theoretical framework, the three basic forces were interpreted as open strings, and gravity was interpreted as closed strings.
Based on this conjecture, gravity could transcend all dimensions.
The physics of the two worlds seemed to be connected?
Although it was only a conclusion of two sets of theories.
Staring at the lines of description in the book in his hand, Chu Guang suddenly thought of the recordings that were unlocked on level B2, the part about the morphological field.
"... There can be a gravitational bond between star clusters, so is there a similar bond between universes?"
Chu Guang did not know exactly what the mass of the universe was. This thing was like oil reserves, there would only be more of it as exploration technology became more advanced.
But assuming that the mass and distance of the 2 universes were both infinite, Chu Guang worked out that the mass of the spacecraft would be infinitesimal with the simplified formula mentioned in a popular science book.
In other words, according to the theory of gravitational bond, even if there was such a bond between two parallel worlds, a single quark wouldn’t be able to pass through it.
But what about particles with a ‘rest mass of 0’?
Like photons.
The transmission of information required a carrier, and the ability to exchange carriers meant that the transmission of information was possible. As for what this medium was, probably only physicists in the Federation era would be able to answer.
"The morphogenetic field linking parallel worlds might be based on a similar theory."
"As for how to locate the parallel world..."
Chu Guang closed his eyes gently, digesting the knowledge he had just absorbed for a moment.
20 points of intelligence was quite useful.
If he wasn't an administrator, he might be able to become an astonishing physicist in the parallel world Earth.
At least if he updated just the content of this book alone to the database on the official website, it would be enough to set off an earthquake in the physics world of the parallel world.
Maybe he would even get a Nobel Prize.
But that was an ideal situation.
Earth did not have the ability to verify these theories, and the superficial descriptions in popular science books were not enough to serve as rigorous scientific conclusions. At most they could serve as a correct direction.
As for himself, there was a high probability that he would be regarded as an emissary of an advanced civilization, and the popular science book would also be regarded as evidence of ‘advanced civilization's good intentions to enlighten earth civilization’.
So here comes the problem.
How many silver coins should this book sell for?
Thinking of Gale, the corners of Chu Guang's mouth curl into a smile uncontrollably.
"Do your best to level up."
"When you help this administrator revive the Federation of People, I'll give you the title of Chief Physicist of the Earth Federation, and help you win a few Nobel Prizes along the way."
Of course.
If you can't hold back your urges and do something foolish, then don't blame me for punishing you.
Chu Guang turned to another page with a smirk. At this moment, Little Seven's voice suddenly came from the side. "Master."
"What's wrong?"
"Your Burning Corp's signal has disappeared from the map."
What?!
Shocked, Chu Guang quickly closed the book in his hand and put it aside. He picked up the tablet on the table and opened the map immediately.
5 green dots had disappeared in the east.
"System!" After a light blue window appeared in front of his eyes, Chu Guang directly switched to the player list. Seeing that those players were still online, he slowly heaved a sigh of relief.
It was only the radio communication that was disconnected, not the morphogenetic field!
The clones were still alive!
It should be some kind of signal jamming device that blocked their signals.
Although there was the possibility of accidents, the safety of the fuel rod was related to whether the Shelter 401 could be used, so Chu Guang didn't want to see any accidents.
Within a second, Chu Guang made the decision and sent out the pre-edited mission with a tap of his index finger.
"Send Mosquito to investigate it with his plane!"
"Okay!" Little Seven responded energetically.

Meanwhile, on the runway north of Dawn City.
A wooden plane with its propellers turning slowly drove out of the hangar.
Mosquito, who was teaching his apprentices how to operate a glider a minute ago, jumped into his plane without saying a word, and put the pilot hat made of Hyena skin on his head.
The two machine guns on the plane had been replaced by 10mm Maxim-II from 7mm small water pipes, and the entire wooden glider had completely changed from a reconnaissance aircraft to a ground attack aircraft.
Mosquito painted a shark tooth on the nose of the plane with paint, making the front of the plane look like a shark with its mouth wide open.
Although the skin didn't provide any buff, it looked cool.
In the future, who will dare to say that my dive attack looked like a bird pooping?!
