Earth Era

In the scientific community, Zhao Lan is undoubtedly a junior, and this is the first time to participate in such a high-level meeting. Zhao Lan couldn't help but feel excited at the thought of being able to face so many scientific leaders and idols directly at the conference.

The meeting started five days later, and there was still plenty of time, but Zhao Lan and Zhang Hong did not dare to neglect. Together, the two embarked on the journey back to Earth on Zhao Lan's Sylvia spacecraft.

The psychological shadow caused by the last incident to Zhao Lan has not yet faded, but this time Zhang Hong is with him again, and Zhang Hong already has a certain status and reputation in the scientific community, so he is not afraid of what will happen when he is with such a scientist. Accident.

The two returned to the earth in a hurry, and then discussed some details with some scientists on the earth, and made some calibrations on some of the data, logic and calculation process in this document, and time slipped away quietly. This time It is time to hold a meeting that affects the fate of the entire human civilization.

The meeting was held in an auditorium of the Central Government of the Capital City. Participants included all the important figures in human society. Not only scientists from various disciplines, but also figures in the government, and even the head of human civilization attended the meeting in person. The total number of attendees has exceeded 2,000.

After the head of state gave the opening speech, the first person invited by the host of the meeting to speak on the podium was Zhao Lan. For the first time experiencing such an occasion, Zhao Lan was a little excited, and at the same time a little ashamed. Excited because, as a junior in the scientific world, he could get such treatment, and ashamed because Zhao Lan knew that all these achievements had little to do with him. These results are made by the team of scientists who are hidden in the Li Yunfan base outside the mainstream scientific community, and they are just a name.

"I'm not a person who is greedy for vanity. If one day you can stand in the sun. I will definitely return all these honors to you." Zhao Lan thought silently.

Standing under the spotlight, standing in front of the microphone, facing thousands of eyes in the auditorium, Zhao Lan calmed down his excitement and opened his mouth.

"Hello everyone. I'm a researcher from the 105 Research Institute, and I'm Zhao Lan." Zhao Lan said slowly, "I think everyone already knows what happened in our civilization starry sky recently... From about a few days A few months ago, I observed the first case of abnormal disappearance of a celestial body, which was a distant quasar more than 8 billion light-years away. It was still in the field of vision of my telescope at the last moment, but In the next moment. It's gone."

"I submitted an observation report to the Central Academy of Sciences for this, and I learned that the phenomenon of anomalous disappearance of stars was not an isolated case. In the following months, the number quickly climbed to millions. There have been hundreds of 10,000 known and recorded celestial bodies disappeared from the field of view of our human civilization. At first we didn't know what it meant, but by chance, I found a space around our earth somewhere Medium. The value of pi is not the same as the value of pi we calculated..."

Zhao Lan spent more than ten minutes briefly describing what happened and what he found, and then explained the Lobachevsky space, space bending, and the fall of the earth to all the participants in the form of virtual animation. related events.

Most of the scientists at the meeting were actually unaware of the event. Yesterday, they were still working in various space stations and research institutes all over the inner solar system and the surface of the earth. After receiving an urgent notice to attend this meeting, they received such heavy news and learned that... the earth is very May fall out of this universe after some time.

"Based on the calculation of the curvature of space, we speculate. If there is no accident, the earth will completely leave the present universe in less than five years, and completely enter another completely unfamiliar space. At that time. The stars will disappear completely, not a single one will be left, and even the sun will disappear. Because in the calculation, the sun will not fall into that strange space with the earth. As for what is in that space, We don't know what the environment was like. But we are almost certain. There isn't a star that happens to be in a steady state just waiting for us at the right distance in that strange space."

Because of the inability to divulge matters related to Li Yunfan. Zhao Lan didn't say anything about the empty universe. Anyway, in this incident, it doesn't matter whether the relevant information about the empty universe is released or not.

"And this. It is undoubtedly a disaster for our human civilization. Our greatest possibility, and our luckiest one, is to fall into an empty space, and in that space, the closest to us may be. Stars are millions of light-years away. We don't have any stellar group within ten light-years from us that can serve as a springboard for our means of interstellar navigation. In other words, we will be stuck dead on Earth, After exhausting the resources on earth, our human civilization will perish."

After Zhao Lan finished saying this, a scientist raised his hand. So Zhao Lan gestured: "If you have any questions, please tell me."

The scientist said: "Although I don't know the details of this star disaster, I still have a question through your description, that is, how did you determine that the space where the earth is about to fall is very What about the empty space?"

Zhao Lan replied: "It is precisely because the earth keeps falling into that unfamiliar space that the stars in our field of vision disappear, and if there are many stars in that universe, the light of those stars should also be due to the fall of the earth. And some of them reach the earth. The changes we observe on the earth should be: some old celestial bodies disappear, and some new celestial bodies appear. And we only observed the disappearance of the old celestial bodies, but not the new ones. The celestial body appeared, so we can basically be sure that the strange space must be empty. Well, we have not observed the emergence of new X-ray sources or gamma-ray sources, or new radiation sources in any other wavelength bands. This In another aspect, it also proves the emptiness of that universe."

The scientist nodded and sat down. Immediately after, another scientist raised his hand.

"I have been in touch with the content of this disaster of stars before, and I have always had an idea in my heart, that is, since we have known the curvature of space in advance and established a space model for this, then we can completely calculate it by calculating Find a "point" near the earth where the space is flat and unaffected by the surrounding curved environment. At this point, we should be able to observe all those celestial bodies that disappear from the earth's field of vision. Has the problem been verified?"

"We have done the verification." Zhao Lan nodded, "The result of the verification is that all the stars that seemed to disappear on the earth and its vicinity all reappeared in that specific observation point. This is a powerful It proves our point of view that "the stars themselves have not changed, it is the earth or the environment around the earth that has changed so that they cannot be observed". At the same time, this verification also shows that our understanding of the Lobachevsky space The models and calculations are completely correct, and it also means that our predictions about the Earth falling into unfamiliar space are also correct. We have details on this verification process, which will follow later on A detailed description of the event will be distributed to everyone."

"Okay, thank you." The scientist thanked him and took his seat.

Another scientist stood up: "Excuse me, have you done any research on the formation of this distorted space?"

Zhao Lan replied: "I have researched, but I have not gained anything at all. Maybe it is a warped space weapon thrown by a super alien civilization passing by here, or because of some unknown, happened in the universe. A special area formed by physical processes...there are so many possible causes, who knows what happened."

The scientist sat down~www.readwn.com~ Another scientist asked his own question: "I noticed that the occurrence time of the abnormal disappearance of celestial bodies and the eruption of the star Haishan Er almost coincided. Excuse me, about the two Are there any related things, have you done any research?"

"My team and I have done research." Zhao Lan replied, "Although we can't be sure, we don't think the relationship between the two is basically a coincidence. There is a very high probability that there is a causal relationship between them. We The most likely situation is that there is a small distorted space area in the solar system that has no effect on the earth and the space of the solar system. Because of the excitation or influence of the energy emitted by the explosion of Haishan II, this area is only The sudden expansion and eventual impact on Earth led to our current crisis. We will attach detailed research data on the possible interaction of high-energy gamma rays and neutrino bursts with space later. Send it to everyone."

Another scientist stood up and said, "I have a question for you. Excuse me... There are so many planets in this universe, even in our solar system, there are dozens of them above the dwarf planet level. So much, so why is it the earth? Why is it the earth that suffers this kind of misfortune?" (To be continued)
