Chapter 388 Singularity
Node universe, central black hole.

The black hole detector launched by the research vessel did not stop at all, but passed through the pale golden accretion disk and headed straight for the deep black hole.

At the same time, a holographic image popped up automatically in the cockpit of the TE1571 research vessel, attracting everyone's attention.

"This is the real-time image sent back by the black hole detector."

Wang Jing looked solemn, and from time to time she reached out to adjust the complex parameters that Chen Fan couldn't understand at all. She pointed at the huge holographic image without looking up and said, "You probably don't have the experience of traveling through a black hole."

"Take a close look at the images sent back by the probe, and think of them as a rehearsal for a possible journey to a black hole."

Chen Fan was speechless and looked towards the holographic image in front of him.

Putting aside the unknown journey to the black hole, he himself is also very curious about black holes.

……

Swish!
The detector passed through the pale golden accretion disk that was rapidly rotating around the black hole and shot towards the dark space directly ahead!

In the holographic image, around the circular dark space in the center, there appeared continuously twisting and fluctuating pale golden light bands.

Behind the pale golden light band, there is an extremely bright starry sky!

Compared with the starry sky from a normal perspective, this starry sky, like those pale golden bands of light, appears extremely distorted, looking like a reflection in a funhouse mirror.

[Currently, the probe has begun to fall towards the black hole.]

[The pale golden band is the accretion disk surrounding the black hole.]

Yi's electronic synthesized voice suddenly sounded, explaining to Chen Fan and his group: [Because the black hole's own gravity is very huge, the space-time distortion phenomenon near it is naturally quite serious, which causes the original complete accretion disk image to be distorted into long and thin strips of light. ]

[As for the starry sky behind the light band, that is the starlight sucked into the black hole. ]

As the probe continued to move forward, these light bands twisted and spread out in all directions.

Eventually, they formed a long, thin ribbon around the circular, deep space.

【Photon ring.】

Yi's voice continued: [Because these photons are too close to the black hole, they are completely trapped on the edge of the black hole. ]

[Countless photons superimposed on each other formed this halo.]

[Of course, when we say it is a halo, its real structure should be a hollow sphere of photons that completely wraps up the black hole itself. After all, a black hole is a three-dimensional structure.]

Chen Fan looked at the flowing halo and the expanding dark area in the picture with shock on his face.

This is where they're headed next!

Amid the electronic synthesized sound of Yi, the circulating photon ring completely disappeared, and the holographic image was completely swallowed up by the darkness.

An electronic synthesized voice also sounded synchronously: [The black hole detector has entered the black hole. ]

"what?"

Isa's voice came from the side: "But... those detectors seem to be still on the edge of the black hole!"

Chen Fan came back to his senses and looked in the direction of Isa's finger.

Ok……

The distance was too far and I couldn't see anything.

He narrowed his eyes and gave Yi an order in his mind.

With the help of the smart terminal and the visual assistance function of the scientific research ship, Chen Fan quickly saw the scene in Isa's mechanical eyes - dozens of black hole detectors, emitting a faint red light, hovering in the edge area of ​​the black hole as if motionless.

Compared with before, the detector now became a little illusory and looked like a phantom.

This is the characteristic of four-dimensionalization - since some time ago, the detector has entered the fourth dimension.

He subconsciously asked: "Yi, what's going on?"

Before Yi could speak, Hongshi, who had remained silent, began to explain: "This is the event horizon of a black hole. The escape velocity inside it has exceeded the speed of light, and no light can escape from it, so the inside of the event horizon is deep darkness."

"At the same time, due to the black hole's own strong gravitational force and space-time distortion effect, a very serious time distortion effect will appear around it."

"Thus, from the perspective of an external observer, any object approaching the event horizon from outside will take an infinite amount of time to reach the event horizon, and in the process its image will appear increasingly redshifted."

"Of course, for an object that crosses the event horizon, it will not feel anything unusual, and it will cross this horizon in a finite time."

Chen Fan nodded thoughtfully.

My head feels so itchy that I need to grow a brain.

"In fact, for conventional observation methods, the light cone of the event that crosses the event horizon does not intersect with the observer's world line." As the black hole detector completely entered the black hole, Wang Jing also stopped what he was doing. "It was not until we mastered the tachyon technology and the hyperspace membrane communication technology that Human Union completely bypassed this limitation."

"But even so, the severe time distortion effect inside the event horizon has had a significant impact on the Human Union's black hole exploration experiment."

Wang Jing shrugged and pointed at the dark holographic interface: "This is also the biggest problem next."

"The closer you get to the singularity, the more severe the time-warping effects become."

"One second of ours may be equal to one year, ten years, or even a hundred years of the outside world!"

The words fell.

There was silence in the cockpit of the research ship. Chen Fan looked shocked.

"How can we investigate this?"

He widened his eyes and asked Wang Jing, "Academician Wang, is there no way for the Human Union to circumvent this restriction?"

"…Yes, but it is not applicable to the current situation."

Under Chen Fan's gaze, Wang Jing sighed: "The previous approach of the Human Alliance was very simple and crude. It relied on the Genesis Fortress to directly adjust the physical laws around the black hole, thereby dismantling the black hole layer by layer."

"While this can greatly reduce the time-warping effect, it can also lead to an irreversible collapse of the black hole structure."

"To put it another way, if there really is a macroscopic passage leading to the anti-universe in this black hole, then doing this will inevitably destroy the stability of this macroscopic passage."

Wang Jing shook her head helplessly: "Even if it is a human connection, it is impossible to get close to the singularity without destroying the structure of the black hole itself... The gravitational strength and time dilation effect there are too terrifying!"

As she spoke, a trace of sadness flashed through Wang Jing's eyes: "Now we can only hope that the macroscopic channel of the positive and negative universes is near the event horizon. If the macroscopic channel is near the singularity, then..."

Before he finished speaking, an extremely familiar soft light suddenly appeared in the originally dark holographic interface.

"This is……"

Chen Fan quickly recognized the source of the light: "Ghost Fleet?"

The light was so bright that it ignored the extremely strong gravity inside the black hole. It not only dispelled the surrounding darkness in violation of the laws of physics, but also floated towards the detector at a rapid speed.

Under everyone's gaze, the light completely enveloped the detector.

Almost at the same time, a warning message popped up on the holographic interface beside Wang Jing!

Just a glance at the warning information, and Wang Jing's originally calm expression changed completely.

"Suffer it!!"

"The black hole detector is out of control!" Wang Jing exclaimed in shock, "It has lost its four-dimensional anchor point and is falling towards the singularity!!"

……

The image in the holographic interface began to change again.

The soft light gradually spread out, illuminating the interior of the black hole in defiance of the laws of physics.

This is an extremely empty area. Under normal circumstances, no matter how vast the space is, no matter how large the space is, it cannot even contain photons. This is also the reason why the detector has been transported into the fourth dimension. Although it cannot shield the influence of gravity, the detector can still firmly fix itself in the edge area by relying on the four-dimensional anchor point.

but now……

Under the influence of the ghost fleet, the four-dimensional anchor has completely failed.

Under everyone's gaze, the detector drew a graceful arc and quickly fell towards the center of this space! !
At the center of a black hole, there is a virtual point without color and spatial dimension.

That is the core of a black hole.

Singular point.

At this moment, everyone stared at the picture on the holographic interface with wide eyes - not to mention Chen Fan and other investigators, even Wang Jing herself had never seen the singularity inside a black hole with her own eyes! !
This is a very unique perspective.

No matter which direction the detector looks from, it can see the virtual point in the center of space without any obstruction!
This is actually a manifestation of the time and space distortion phenomenon reaching a certain level!

"God..."

Looking at the virtual point in the picture that was getting closer and closer but without any change in size, Wang Jing sighed in a low voice.

Although she is a biologist, she is still aware of the appeal of this scene to those physics scholars!

She was very sure that if she put this holographic video in front of her and sold it at the Human Union Academy of Sciences, it would definitely fetch a truly astronomical amount! !
Wang Jing suppressed the chaotic thoughts that involuntarily emerged in her mind and quickly glanced at the detection data sent back by the detector.

A sea of ​​blood!
The gravitational intensity has exceeded the carrying limit of the detector!
but……

The probe did not show any signs of disintegration or deformation!

"Unbelievable..." Wang Jing was shocked and couldn't help but swear, "How... How the hell is this possible?!"

Swish! ! !
At the moment when the detector was about to touch the singularity, the image in the holographic interface suddenly disappeared!

Instead, there is a bright red warning message.

【Warning! Communication signal interrupted! 】

"Oh!"

Wang Jing's face flushed red, and she slapped the main console in front of her. A burst of trivial curses rang out in the originally quiet cockpit.

"You and I***!!"

For a scientific researcher, the impact of this scene was too intense - we were about to reach the singularity, and what the hell was the meaning of a signal interruption? !

"quick!"

"Everyone on the ship is ready to upgrade! Find the whereabouts of the black hole detector in every dimension!!"

"If three dimensions don't work, try four dimensions. If four dimensions don't work, try five dimensions!"

Wang Jing gave an urgent order to the main computer on the research ship: "You must find the location of those black hole detectors for me today!"
