Chapter 90: Communication Experiments


The fleet is sailing in the universe.

As for which planet to go to, what kind of trade to carry out, and what cooperation agreement to sign, Bai Lian does not need to worry about it.

Just as the owner explained at the beginning, her job is to manage the spaceship well and report to him from time to time.

That's it.

This means that as a mental model, she still has a lot of free time, and Bai Lian often feels bored.

"Good morning, Master, the fleet is sailing normally today, 10 million kilometers away from the moon, and is expected to arrive at Mars in 5 days.

Master, is there anything you can do?"

Bai Lian asked, and Cao Chuan lowered his head to check the information she returned.

Now, there are not only digital cities, digital battlefields, but also digital stars.

The function of the digital starry sky is to display the spacecraft, planets, etc., to intuitively understand the current movement of the spacecraft and the development of the planet.

"Aren't you going to play games with Nana?"

Cao Chuan asked after reading, thinking that there are really few entertainment activities for mental models, such as Nana and Bai Lian.

The more common entertainment activities are watching TV, movies, and comics.

Reading novels, reading news on the Internet, etc., she is simply more homely than him.

"Of course, if you don't like it, you can sing."

He thought about it again and decided to entrust the responsibility of the virtual singer to Bai Lian.

It is said that Bai Lian's mental age is no more than 15 years old, which is the age that is easy to deceive in theory. .

"Singing" Bai Lian expressed doubts, "Is there anything good about singing?"

"Many people will like you like this.

Don't you think it feels good?"

Cao Chuan continued to abduct.

"But, it's too shameful.

I don't like doing it."

She refused again, blinked, and decided to go to Nana.

When Cao Chuan saw Bai Lian, he planned to interrupt the communication.

He didn't want to let go of the precious opportunity.

Such a big delay meant that there was no longer the possibility of instant chat in the universe.

If there was a chance to communicate, it would be better to tell everything.

"Wait a minute, before finishing the report, call Researcher Metasai here."

Half a minute later, Researcher Metasai appeared on the screen.

Behind him was a special cabin inside the Heng Yue-class spacecraft.

It looked neat and bright, giving people the feeling of a laboratory.

Metacer used to be a researcher at the Sudbury Observatory and has been engaged in the research of super-era neutrinos for 20 years.

The neutrino was discovered half a century ago.

It is a special kind of basic particle that constitutes atoms.

It is neutral and contains no electric charge.

Its mass is only one ten thousandth of that of an electron.

Its biggest feature is its terrible penetrability.

If a beam of neutrinos is hit on the Earth, it will enter from the North Pole, pass through the crust, mantle, and core, and then pass through the core, mantle, and crust until it passes through the South Pole.

The energy loss rate is less than 10 billion parts. one.

Therefore, if neutrinos are used for communication, it still cannot solve the increasingly serious delay problem in the universe, but it may solve the signal attenuation, solve the communication between the moon surface and the back of the moon, and solve the communication problem between the moon and the asteroid belt, and always maintain perfection. communication quality.

"Mr.

Advisor, the neutrino generator has been built."

Metasay said the reason why he was on the spacecraft, because it will be the first neutrino communication experiment with practical significance in human history. .

The previous time was about 10 years ago.

Scientists used a particle accelerator to create neutrinos, and then used encoding equipment to store the information in the neutrino beam.

At the same time, they used a specialized neutrino receiving equipment and decoding equipment to achieve The entire communication process.

At that time, scientists allowed neutrinos to penetrate a 240-meter-thick rock wall and successfully received the information carried by the neutrinos.

However, just like fusion energy reactors, it is not surprising that any pre-research on super-era technology is being carried out in the laboratory. , it is really difficult to put it into practice, even for preliminary applications.

Metasai is surrounded by fusion energy reactors.

The huge device with a total volume of nearly two or three cabins is the equipment they use to generate neutrinos.

The unlimited power provided by the reactor maintains the continuous generation of neutrinos.

This is the core of the entire neutrino communication technology.

The bottleneck lies in a relatively lightweight and cheap neutrino generator.

Cao Chuan spent one day on regular simulations and combined it with Metacer’s decades of research results.

The things scratched out.

"In this case, let's experiment quickly."

Cao Chuan urged.

He chose to participate in Metasai's research, which shows that he is quite looking forward to neutrino communication, although he was even more looking forward to the neutrino communication more than 20 years ago.

The hypothetical quantum entanglement communication would theoretically turn the entire universe into a zero-delay world.

After verifying the technical difficulty through simple rule simulations, it was found that the time scale is calculated in months.

He plans to develop neutrino communication first.

Say it again.

"Mr.

Advisor, are you ready?"

Half a minute later, Cao Chuan received Metacer's response, and then started the neutrino receiver underground at the lunar base.

It was also a big hemispherical thing.

In this way, it propagated in a straight line.

The neutrino beam can be aimed at the target.

The response from the other side disappeared.

He stared at the screen, guessing that Masetta had taken action and started a special monitoring program.

There was no information on the screen for the time being.

Even if it was a neutrino, the speed across the universe was still the speed of light.

Calculated based on the current position of the emitted message. , he has to wait 30 seconds.

Although neutrinos also exist in nature, such as those from the sun and from other star systems dozens of light-years away, the messy neutrinos have no practical significance and have long been filtered through hardware or software levels.

The screen lit up, and a waveform appeared, high and low.

He then started the decoding device, a small tool with little technical content, to translate the waveform, and the words "heoword" appeared on the screen.

"Successful" Cao Chuan jumped up.

With the help of rule simulation, even technology such as neutrino communication can be easily broken.

He was just about to do something, such as replying a "received" message, when he suddenly remembered that the current neutrino communication is one-way.

The fleet managed by Bai Lian is allowed to send information to the lunar base.

They are at the lunar base.

And there is no way to respond.

"Let's go the old way."

Anyway, the experiment was successful.

Cao Chuan simply typed a line of text on the screen and sent it through traditional radio waves.

After a minute, Metasay's profile picture appeared.

"Congratulations," Metasai replied.

This is not only his honor, but also Cao Chuan's.

He couldn't wait to ask: "Then Mr.

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

Consultant, can I start the next phase of the research plan, such as research on smaller neutrino communication equipment, popularization of neutrino communication base stations, etc."

Cao Chuan nodded in agreement and added, "Don't forget another major application of neutrinos, deep geological scanning equipment."

"I won't forget it."

Metacer quickly replied, remembering that he had been negligent.

Although neutrino communication is considered by many people to be the future of communication, in the eyes of geologists, it will be a piece of cake.

"Artifact".

Neutrinos can easily penetrate a planet, reach the core of the planet thousands of kilometers deep, and understand the situation there.

Therefore, applying it to geology will include detecting the distribution of planetary resources at depths of several kilometers or more than ten kilometers. , thereby greatly reducing the work of the exploration department; and also exploring the structure of the core part of the planet to explore the secrets of planet formation.

Although deep geological scanning equipment has a bright future and will dig out all the treasures in the ground without leaving any traces behind, according to Cao Chuan's estimation, the biggest problem is that it will take an unknown amount of energy to scan the entire planet.

With neutrinos, the problem centers on cost
