Chapter 393 Expedition - Taipu Star!
Zhang Yuan nodded. It is necessary to decipher the other party's language. You can't expect the other party to know the Gaia civilized pronunciation, or force the other party to learn human pronunciation. Even if the other party is really interested and learns it, it may take three to five years...
Humans already have enough cracking experience. As long as there is enough data, it will be released in a few days.
He sighed and whispered: "In short, without satellites, wouldn't it be impossible to do anything? There is no navigation. Can all ships only look at the astrological compass? The technological development is a bit crooked..."
"This heavy industrial system is pretty good. Look, their ships can even reach the level of million tons in terms of volume. Although the navigation speed is not high, there are many cargoes that can be transported at one time."
"So, is this a slow-paced civilization? The speed of the airboat will definitely not be very fast... If it takes several hours to work and several hours to get off work, it will be very troublesome."
Everyone laughed.
...
With the disclosure of the first observation materials, diplomatic preparations, and the deciphering of the civilization's language are also in an orderly manner...
Many people are full of expectations for this trade activity.
A civilization in a high gravity environment is difficult to develop aerospace technology due to the limitations of the planet. Most people still rely on sympathy for this phenomenon. There is nothing worse in the universe than innate deficiencies.
Among the universal values of Kunlun Mountain society, "acquired without effort" is much worse than "innate deficiency". The religious civilization, Riley civilization, can be regarded as a typical example of acquired failure without effort, so everyone has less sympathy. However, this civilization seems to be more inclined toward innate deficiency.
Some people think that they can trade general aerospace technology, such as chemical rockets, which have long been eliminated by humans. It would be nice if they can trade it out and help the other party a little.
This plan quickly won the approval of many people.
But in the forum, an expert pointed out: General rocket technology is actually not very helpful to this civilization, because high gravity and thick atmosphere are all obstacles to aerospace technology.
"Why hasn't this civilization developed aerospace technology? I have to say that all technologies are progressive step by step. When the first step is not able to develop, there is no way to develop in the next steps."
"As for the Long March rocket you proposed, there is no way to climb the gravitational well. Saturn V is a little likely, but the failure rate is also very high."
"...The super engine based on supermagnetic-a material must be researched for thousands of years with the new human civilization to allow the spacecraft to be successfully launched and reused."
"Of course, even if you can't use the rocket technology directly, it's still very reference-based."
Ram engines based on supermagnetic-a materials are already the core technologies of civilization. If you really want to trade, the other party must also come up with something that can match its value.
Limited help, equality and reciprocity have always been the core of the trade of the new civilization, that is... I can help you in a small amount, but if you have to pay for core technology, it is of course impossible!
After three months, under the attention of all the people, several detection satellites successfully collected more information about this unknown civilization and learned about the general situation.
At the same time, Kunlun Mountain has also selected an outer planet to mine material resources. There is no need to worry too much about this. Basically, there are already a series of strict processes, just do it step by step.
But this time the spacecraft rectification work is particularly important, and it is expected to last for about five years. A large number of elderly people will retire during this rectification period, so most of the work, including the maintenance of spacecraft, the collection of resources, and some diplomatic work, will be personally responsible by young people, and the elderly will be more hands-on guidance.
On this day, a "Hawkish-class" destroyer, three large transport spacecraft, and six "Haiyan-class" frigates arrived at a height of more than 60,000 kilometers above the edge of Taipu Star and began to prepare for information communication with this civilization.
The bright ion engine is jetting regularly. With a slight vibration, all the spacecraft officially arrive at the predetermined orbit.
"Ladies and gentlemen, before the diplomatic mission is officially completed, we can only spend our time on the spacecraft. The current environment is many times better than before. In the past, there was a risk of suffocation when going to the toilet."
All the diplomats couldn't help laughing.
Since there has not been any substantial communication, after discussion, the diplomats decided to build the main diplomatic base on this large destroyer "Hawk 1".
With more than 300,000 kilometers, the delay of information communication is about 2 seconds, which is acceptable. If the diplomatic team hides in Kunlun Mountain, the information delay may take more than ten hours, which would be very uncomfortable.
Therefore, building a small communication base on a destroyer is the correct solution, which not only ensures safety and facilitates communication.
There were more than 2,000 people in this ship, including diplomats, soldiers, journalists, and accompanying doctors.
After the spacecraft successfully reached orbit, Wang Junpeng looked up at the huge blue planet. From this perspective, it was completely covered with blue, covering most of the sky.
"It is said that looking at the earth at the top of the moon's space elevator is like this? It's such a magnificent world. We can only feel such beautiful scenery in the virtual space, but there is always a little bit of realism." A young man nearby suddenly said.
Wang Junpeng said: "Yes, but this planet is obviously bigger, regardless of area or volume... Their mountains are 10,000 meters high, and the depth of the ocean can reach 30,000 meters."
Almost everyone was immersed in this beautiful natural landscape, and the reporters even forgot about taking photos.
In the vast universe with bright stars, there are always some blue stars that have nurtured life. They are so fraternal and so fragile.
"Hey, after leaving the earth, the entire universe will still operate, just like the earth will operate normally after leaving you. Thinking of this, the whole life is a little meaningless..."
The young man couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, most people's lives are meaningless. Even without them, civilization will still work. But there are also a few people's lives that are meaningful... I don't know where the meaning is."
Wang Junpeng smiled and said that he had also thought about this issue when he was young.
"The whole civilization is the real human being. We are just the cells of society. Human beings are renewing, but civilization is still the same... It is better to directly attribute the meaning of your existence to the entire civilization and strive for it."
This should be the last time that Wang Junpeng has taken up a diplomatic mission, and then he will be able to live a free retirement life.
According to the average life span, you can live fifty years, but... there is always a very subtle emotion.
In the end, this series of emotions could only turn into a faint sigh.
Wang Junpeng raised his head and cheered up again.
Chapter completed!
