Chapter 108 This Civilization Is Too Shocked
Accompanied by the blending of cultures, the independent and closed Tak societies on the mother planet have completed the convergence of knowledge through exchanges, and various literary works have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

Among them, the most sought after, that is science fiction literature.

Other literature is only limited to the interior of the Tucker society, but science fiction depicts the world outside the Tucker people, which greatly stimulates the curiosity hidden in the collective heart of the Tucker people that is suppressed by religious explanations .

In science fiction works, the sci-fi writers of the Tuckers boldly described a universe full of space civilizations. In this universe full of space civilizations, there are also the same joys, sorrows, joys and loves as the Tuckers. Hate and hate.

In this sci-fi universe, alien civilizations will drive spaceships, form a huge alien fleet, shuttle between stars one after another at will, or create civilizations, or destroy planets, and live forever, just like gods.

Countless Tak people believe that this is their future vision, the civilization they yearn for.

During this period of time, the Tucker society actively searched for traces of alien civilizations and tried to contact them.

However, all these actions are in vain. There is only silence and noise in the deep space. Neither the probes that have been successfully launched outside the star system nor the electromagnetic waves in the background of the universe can get any meaningful information. , the entire universe seems to be telling the Taks, 'You are the only civilization in this universe. '

Later, when the scientific community made more in-depth explorations of the scientific knowledge of the universe, and after the parent star had orbited more than 100 times, the Tuckers pessimistically discovered that it was difficult for them to realize the bright future in science fiction works.

Not to mention anything else, just the fact that the speed of light cannot be surpassed blocked their fantasies about the speed of light.

As a result, science fiction literature has gone into decline. It has given the Tuckers a beautiful fantasy, but it has no way to give the Tuckers a beautiful reality.

In this way, existence is better than non-existence for things that are useless except for fantasy. If it weren't for at least some role that can provide children with imagination, science fiction might be classified as psychoactive drugs by the Tuckers. .

However, there are always people who want to embrace the future, and there are always problems that cannot be avoided.

Due to the increase in the population on the parent planet, the allocation of resources has become a serious problem. Famine, crisis, poverty, and war continue to spread in the 150 billion Tak society on the entire planet.

Facing all kinds of problems, striding forward to the universe seems to be the only answer.

In March 3064, the Tak people's country, the Tasi Alliance, completed manned spaceflight for the first time.

Dalisco, a Tucker, took a manned rocket to break through the gravitational force of the parent star, entered outer space, and successfully returned to the ground after revolving around the parent star in orbit in outer space.

In the next Maihuan, the Tasi Alliance began to land on Maixing.

Maixing is one of the two satellites surrounding the home star of the Tuckers. Its revolution is used by the Tuckers to measure time. Every time a revolution is completed, it is a Maihuan.

The other satellite, which is farther away, is called Alpha, and the Tas Alliance is going to complete the landing on Meixing first, and then complete the landing on Alpha.

On the day of the launch of the landing rocket, the entire Tucker community sat around the radio, listening to the exciting speech on the radio.

[To all Tuckers: I never thought that one day I would be able to give this speech. I am very honored to be selected as a reader, and I am deeply proud of it.

In the past, we spurned science fiction, thinking it was just a children's storybook, a boring fantasy.

But now, fantasy is so close to us, so close that we are bringing fantasy to reality.

What an exciting moment, the universe is so vast, the contradictions, prejudices and international conflicts of various countries seem meaningless, funny and childish on the scale of the universe, there is everything there, but no one chooses to take it, just fight for it look down.

The unknown world is full of mysteries waiting to be discovered. Where is the boundary of the universe?What is the purpose of the universe?Is there a civilization like our Tak people in the universe?What happens when the universe goes to heat death?Do black holes really exist?Do neutron stars and pulsars really exist?wait.

We, the Tasi Alliance, are willing to be the forerunners of all the Tak people, marching towards the vast land, and obtaining a broader future for all the Tak people.

First of all, it is to complete the landing on Maixing!
Maybe someone will laugh at us, there seems to be a big gap between the vast future that Landing Maixing and I describe.

Questions like these, I can now give a definite answer - this is one small step for now, but one giant leap for the future.

When we overcome countless challenges, we will finally realize the fantasy in the fairy tale and bring it to reality...]

Tata Kai listened to the president's impassioned speech on the radio, feeling unprecedentedly relaxed.

He must relax, because he is the direct astronaut of this space landing. If he maintains a high mental state, it will easily lead to mental fatigue, and then increase the probability of mistakes in the operation.

To this end, Tatakai must adjust its own state.

As the countdown began, Tata Kai was conducting the last pre-launch equipment inspection.

When the countdown ended and a strong recoil pushed Tatakai onto the seat, he knew that the rocket had launched!
The rocket has no windows, but Tatakai can see the scene outside the rocket through the external camera hole.

The friction of the air produces a dazzling light like flames, which makes Tatakai feel that he is not heading towards the universe, but launching a death impact towards a boundless purgatory shrouded in flames.

When the rocket enters space and there is no atmospheric friction, what the camera hole captures is no longer the flame-like light, but a completely new world.

One side of the world is endless darkness, and the other side is a colorful world.

Tatakai recognized that colorful world, which was his home planet and the mother that gave birth to the entire Tucker race.

Now, he wants to leave his mother's embrace and go to a dark place to explore a new world!

Tata happily and silently said goodbye to the home planet for a short time, and began to devote all his energy to the adjustment of the orbit of the rocket cabin.

Since the propulsion technology of the Tuckers is still limited to chemical fuels, Tatakai needs to adjust its orbit, use a gravitational slingshot to gradually approach the star, and finally complete the orbit change, let the rocket cabin cut into the orbit of the star, and then gradually shrink the orbit to complete Landing on Meixing.

This sounds easy, but it is very complicated in practice. Tatakai needs to keep in touch with the ground space center during this period.

One time, two times, three times... ten times, eleven times, after completing the No.11 revolution of the parent star, the rocket capsule began to change its orbit and cut into the orbit of the Mai star.

"Call the ground, I have seen Meixing." Tata reported to the ground space center.

"Good communication." The ground space center replied.

Tatakai was planning to end the radio communication when he was suddenly shocked by what he saw.

Mai Xing was actually shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a deflated rubber ball.

This uncommon sense scene really frightened Tatakai, and he immediately contacted the ground space center.

"Call the ground! Call the ground!"

"The ground command center has received it, please explain the problem."

"Maixing is disappearing! Maixing is disappearing!"

In fact, there is no need for Tata to report on the radio, because the Tuckers on the ground can also clearly see that the long-term star hanging in the sky is shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye. All the towers on the parent star All of them looked at this change in the sky in astonishment...
