Earth Era

Chapter 219: Keller's death

No matter who is asked to evaluate, he will comment on "there was once a super alien civilization that used the solar system as a battlefield 500 million to 600 million years ago, and waged a vast and protracted war in the solar system". Feeling terrified, feeling creepy. ? .ls520. This is completely beyond human imagination, and this matter will lead to more other problems, such as: "If that super alien civilization came to the solar system 500 million to 600 million years ago And if there is such a war going on here, what is the impact on our solar system?"

Another example: "What did they do to our solar system? Or, did they do anything to our earth? You know, there was already simple life on the earth at that time, then, they What role did we play in the emergence of us humans? Are there any connection between us... and them?"

Any one of these things is enough to have a huge impact on the values ​​and worldview of modern human civilization. If it is finally concluded that human civilization is nothing more than the seeds of life sown by other civilizations, or a test product, then the world view of many people will collapse. Or don't talk about these things, just ask this question: "Do they still exist? What level of technology do they have now? Are they ... still spying on our human civilization?"

It is foreseeable that if this matter is announced in the human civilization, then its power will be no less than the explosion of a nuclear bomb on the capital of the earth. Conspiracy theories will flourish. Religion will be revived and hearts will become panic. There will be turmoil in society... The source of all this is because of this thing, that is, there was a super alien civilization that fought a huge war with the solar system as the battlefield five to six hundred million years ago.

This matter weighed on Wei Feng's heart like a heavy stone. Wei Feng desperately wanted to find out what was going on, but this matter couldn't be rushed. Most likely, until Wei Feng runs out of his own life. Even the entire human civilization exhausted its own life. The truth of this matter cannot emerge.

It was a long time of hundreds of millions of years... Anything is possible in such a long time. Even since human civilization has been recorded in writing, mankind has not fully understood the history of thousands of years ago. How can it be simple to understand something that happened hundreds of millions of years ago?

The control cabin was quiet again, Wei Feng looked at the things in the vacuum-sealed box, and did not stagger his eyes for a long time. After a long time, Wei Feng waved his hand and said, "Put these things away and keep them well. If we can return to Earth one day, we will hand it over to the government for research."

"Okay." Ye Luo responded, manipulating the push-cart robot to put away the sealed box, and then asked, "Do you want to read the letter sent to you from Earth now? Or...you need a break?"

"Make me something to eat." Wei Feng said. "Then I'm going to take a good rest. I'm still feeling a little sick."

"Good captain, if you can sleep peacefully, you may feel better." Ye Luo said.

Hibernation is not the same as sleep, sleep is rest, and hibernation is similar to suspending all physiological processes in the human body. Obviously, it does not have the effect of rest. If it has been hibernated for a long time, it will cause serious damage to the human body.

Wei Feng ate something, and then lay down on the soft and comfortable big bed under Ye Luo's arrangement. In the only oasis in this dark and far-reaching universe, I quietly entered into sleep.

After waking up, Wei Feng felt that his state had recovered a little. After some restorative exercises, Wei Feng went to his personal computer during the break, and opened the letters sent from the earth.

At this moment, more than 20 years have passed since Wei Feng left the earth, and the Xinghai spacecraft has sailed a distance of nearly two trillion kilometers. This means that one-way communication between Weifeng and the earth will take almost two months, and a question and answer will take four months.

It was not beyond Wei Feng's expectations, those letters were sent by his "classmates". They are keeping their promises, recording events in human civilization from the perspective of a bystander, and then sending these things to Wei Feng.

The first letter was a response to his own reply ten years earlier. There was no specific description in this letter, so Wei Feng put it to the back of his mind after reading it. There are seventeen letters in total, except for this one, the other sixteen record some important or anecdotal events. But among these sixteen things, only two caught Wei Feng's attention.

"Wei Feng, do you remember the situation when the Xinghai spacecraft set sail? At that time, almost everyone in the whole civilization was watching us, and our every move touched people's hearts. But I have to say, we Humans are a forgetful species. All information, no matter how explosive it is, is time-sensitive for the general public, and after this period no one will pay attention to it. Unfortunately, our island plan has not been able to escape. This fate. People are gradually forgetting us, and not many people remember that a spaceship left our home galaxy more than ten years ago and embarked on a long interstellar journey alone."

"I feel very sad that we have dedicated our lives to this project, but the end is that people are gradually forgetting us. I am afraid that if, after a few hundred years, we are completely forgotten and no one will come again. Pay attention to us, and no one remembers us, what will our destiny be like?"

This is indeed a very sad thing, but Wei Feng has long been mentally prepared to face this situation. Wei Feng never expected to be remembered from the very beginning. But when this situation really started to happen, Wei Feng still felt a little sad in his heart.

Wei Feng sighed, left his seat and went to the porthole of the spaceship, looking at the bright star in the distance through the glass. Wei Feng knows that there are hundreds of billions of his own kind living around that star, where he was born and lived, where he carries all his memories, no matter whether the memory is warm or cold, it makes people feel better. Happy or sad, it's all there.

Now, I am in a distant space two trillion kilometers away, and it takes four months to communicate with the earth at a time, and as time goes by, this distance will continue to expand. There is always darkness and nothingness here, only myself. I care about there, but the people there are forgetting about themselves.

"When I left the earth, when I stepped into the hibernation pod, I was doomed to be forgotten. They can enjoy this era to the fullest, but we time travelers can only stand in one The perspective of a bystander can't be integrated into it. But... this responsibility is always taken by someone, isn't it?" Wei Feng silently said this to himself, and then returned to his seat again.

There are still two short sentences left in the letter, the first paragraph of which is: "Fortunately, the society has not changed much, everything we are familiar with still exists here, and we have not been abandoned by the times for the time being. ."

There is only one sentence in the second paragraph, "Oh, yes, Keller died, it was said to be an interstellar traffic accident, a meteorite hit his car, and he and his entourage, a total of thirty-seven people, were all buried in space. "

This letter ended here, but Wei Feng felt a little ripple in his heart.

Keller is the name of the head of state who was determined to carry out the island project. It has been almost forty years since he stepped down as head of state. Wei Feng also heard about Keller's life after he left office, and knew that he had become an artist and had a high reputation in human society.

The description of Keller's death in this letter is very simple, like casually talking about someone's pet dying in small talk. But Wei Feng sensed something unusual from this simple description.

Meteorite attack... For the current human civilization ~www.readwn.com~ Is it possible to destroy a spaceship in such a way as a meteorite attack?

Wei Feng felt sorry for Keller's death, and at the same time felt a little puzzled. There seems to be a lot of things behind this matter, but Wei Feng is not a politician, so he can't decipher more information from here. The sense of isolation brought about by the long distance in time and space also makes Wei Feng feel that Keller's death seems to be very far away.

That was something that happened in a distant hometown. What does it have to do with the current self?

Wei Feng shook his head, throwing the matter out of his mind. Even if this matter is unusual, it is not something he can intervene in. He is just a time traveler who is about to be forgotten.

The second letter was written by Chu Hai and was sent three months ago. Of course, because of the communication delay, I just received it a month ago.

"Wei Feng, hello. Tell you an unfortunate thing, a scientist recently declared that the upper limit of the speed of conventional thrust spacecraft is 1.5% of the speed of light, which is 4,500 kilometers per second. This conclusion Although it has not been recognized, there are already a large number of scholars who support this conclusion." To be continued. ls. > enable new url
