"what is that?!"
Everyone walking on the road was attracted by the scene happening in the sky.
A transparent light curtain envelops the entire sky.
People stood and looked at the sky, wondering what happened to Blue Star.
Many people picked up their mobile phones to take pictures and record this scene.
"Is this an aurora?"
Most people were just curious, gathering in small groups and pointing at the light curtain in the sky.
There are also some impatient people who hurried home after discovering this situation, turned on their computers, and wanted to share this scene with their relatives and friends.
Who would have thought that the Internet would be full of similar discussions.
"Do you also have this light curtain?"
"We have one here, located in Yangcheng..."
"We have one too, I'm in Nancheng..."
Many people think that this situation only occurs in their area, but who knows, it can be seen all over the world.
"It seems like a ball, completely surrounding Blue Star..."
“Damn it, it’s not like aliens are coming, right?!”
"Spherical shape, wrapped in a blue star, I thought of a Dyson sphere..."
"Aren't the aliens trying to suck all the energy from our Blue Star?!"
"Before this light curtain rose, I saw a robot outside the sky. Do you think this could be related to Blue Moon Technology?!"
"This is the super weapon 'Scorching Star'. It uses the principle of a magnifying glass to refract sunlight. It wants to blow up our Blue Star!"
"It's almost over. The end of the world is coming. I can already feel the heat. The global temperature will rise by one degree every day. In a month at most, we humans will be completely wiped out..."
On the Internet, there are all kinds of things to say, some are not too concerned about it, and some are worried.
Just when people were like headless flies and thought every hypothesis was reasonable, the official finally issued a notification.
"The sky that hangs over Blue Star is a defense system specially installed by Blue Moon Technology Company in response to the asteroid crisis..."
"The canopy system can intercept all dangers from the universe. Please don't panic..."
Seeing this announcement, the whole network was instantly excited.
"Blue Moon Technology again?!"
“Where on earth did this company come from?!”
"Robots, magnetic levitation, and projection touch. The technologies contained in these three products are decades or hundreds of years ahead of their time, and now they have come up with a canopy system that protects the world?!"
"Blue Moon Technology is so awesome, I suspect they intercepted the last time an asteroid hit Blue Star..."
"The possibility is very high. How could an asteroid with a speed of Mach 50 suddenly slow down and stop when it was about to hit the blue star..."
"That's right, the Siberian region encountered an asteroid with a speed of Mach 20 before, but it was not attracted by the gravity of the Blue Star. It crashed in normally and even created a 500-meter-diameter crater..."
This announcement not only failed to reassure the public, but also made many people worried.
"I am worried about one thing right now. Is Blue Moon Technology Company our own company?"
"What do you mean upstairs?!"
"The technology developed by Blue Moon Technology is too forward-looking and spans multiple fields. It is not like Blue Star can develop it ourselves..."
"More like aliens..."
"Holy shit, Blue Moon Technology Company is run by aliens?!"
"It's possible, maybe, we are imprisoned by aliens..."
…
Xia Capital Base.
Tens of thousands of experts of various types gathered together to launch a series of studies on the canopy.
"What impact will this sky layer have on Blue Star? Is it possible that it will exacerbate the greenhouse effect?"
Councilor Zhou personally sat in charge and commanded the entire audience.
"Testing refractive index..."
Outside the base, a group of people carried various types of instruments and started testing.
"Teacher, it seems there is no..." A staff member said with a look of horror while holding the instrument.
A gray-haired old man looked shocked after hearing this. He snatched the prism from the student's hand and started testing it among a bunch of precision instruments.
After he took the test himself, the look of shock finally appeared on his face.
Seeing this, Councilor Zhou quickly stepped forward to inquire about the situation.
The white-haired old man explained: "We just used the deflection diagonal method to test the refractive index of the sky curtain, but the result was..."
"what's the result?!"
"No refractive index!"
"That light curtain seems to be able to absorb light, or it shields our testing methods in some way that we don't know?!"
This was the first time I had seen this situation. The old man's eyes were filled with confusion, but soon he regained his composure and looked at the student and said:
"Testing using the autocollimation method..."
"good!"
The student concealed his fear and quickly switched the testing method.
On the side, there are several students, holding pens and papers, waiting for the parameters, ready to start calculations at any time.
"Teacher, still not..."
"What?!"
The white-haired old man was startled and did not do it himself this time. After pondering for a moment, he said again: "Calculate again using the critical angle method!"
This method requires two prisms to be in contact, and the measurement accuracy is not as good as the previous two methods.
But at this moment, the white-haired old man wanted to make sure of one thing.
At the end of the test, looking at the students shaking their heads, the old man took a deep breath, looked at Councilor Zhou and said: "Although the critical angle method is not accurate, as long as it is a prism, it will definitely show the dividing line between light and dark. But now, it is No……"
"What do you mean?!" Councilor Zhou didn't understand.
"It means that this sky curtain absorbs or blocks all the light signals inside our blue star..."
Councilor Zhou was stunned, still not understanding, and then asked: "Will it have any impact on our Blue Star?"
“Will the world get hotter?”
"The world will not get hotter, it will even get cooler..."
"As long as there is no global warming..."
Councilor Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.
"not good!"
The old man looked solemn and said: "From now on, our Blue Star will no longer be able to observe the real universe..."
"What?!"
Councilor Zhou was shocked. Didn’t the aliens say that the sky curtain only blocks other civilizations in the universe from peeking into the Blue Star?
How come in the end, even Blue Star can no longer observe the universe? !
The old man looked bitter and shook his head: "Congressman Zhou, are you sure you didn't lead the wolf into the house?"
"Being unable to observe the universe is equivalent to blocking the blue star, and our scientific and technological conjectures will stagnate..."
"The consequences of this are extremely serious. It may not be seen in the short term. It won't have a big impact..."
"But in the long run..."
"Blocking Blue Star means that there will never be another Copernicus who proposes the 'heliocentric theory'..."
"Blue Star's understanding of the universe will completely stop at the moment of 'geocentric theory', and will no longer make any progress..."
Councilor Zhou was shocked and said quickly: "You mean, our technology will stop advancing?"
"Technology can still develop for several decades..."
The white-haired old man sighed, "But the important thing is not technology, but science..."
"The so-called science is a process of constantly proposing hypotheses, verifying them through various means, forming laws, and then constantly overturning them..."
"From today on, we can have hypotheses and 'laws', but there is no way to verify whether the 'laws' are really correct..."
"This is like Newton's law of universal gravitation. For a hundred years at that time, it was the truth and could verify the laws within the solar system."
“However, with the emergence of Einstein’s general theory of relativity, there are flaws in the law of universal gravitation. First, it cannot solve the problem of instantaneous gravity. Second, it cannot solve the problem of length contraction of objects. Third, it has a wrong understanding of the action of gravity at a distance. "
"With the emergence of Tianmu, there will be no next Einstein in the scientific field. Even if it does appear, it will only be on the wrong path, going further and further..."
"Humanity's understanding of the universe will completely stop at this moment, today!"
