Director Niu was obviously absent-minded for a short time.
He calls himself a coder, and it is true that he is engaged in computer science and artificial intelligence.
But it doesn't mean that he really knows nothing about higher-level mathematical knowledge.
Let's put it this way, so far, the technological revolution brought about by the genius Ye Ming... including chip materials, quantum computing, strong artificial intelligence... These are essentially upgrades of existing technologies, even including anti-gravity fields Inside - these technologies will not bring too disruptive changes to human civilization.
There is no Aita in the West, but people have lived through it now. Without an anti-gravity field, other people's spacecraft can still go to the sky and travel in space - it's just that the conditions are a bit difficult.
Fundamentally, these technologies are still technologies in three-dimensional space and within this universe.
But long-distance communication is different.
Achieving cross-dimensional and long-distance communication truly means that human beings have mastered the power of crossing dimensions...
And once we master such power... it means that human beings can truly walk towards the stars and the sea without any scruples!
Don’t underestimate the interaction of information.
In a sense, Schrödinger's saying "life feeds on negative entropy" also applies to information - human existence itself is a process of constantly releasing information. If a person cannot enter another person's time cone, then this person's existence is meaningless to the other person.
In other words, assuming that under the current communication rules, humans can rely on a "super" controllable nuclear fusion engine to accelerate the spacecraft to a few percent of the speed of light and fly out of the solar system.
But when the communication time between the spacecraft and the earth continues to lengthen with the extension of the distance, the act of flying out of the solar system and flying into the starry sky is actually not that big for the earth itself... because of the serious lag in information. meaning.
Moreover, even the bravest warrior may not be able to do it alone away from the earth.
——If you launch an unmanned detector, that's fine.
But can that represent humanity going to the stars?
If it can, then humans can now "count" interstellar civilization - because Voyager 1 has flown out of the Coinber belt and is destined to fly out of the solar system.
But with long-distance communication, everything is different.
Because whether it is a manned ecological aircraft or an unmanned detector, what the aircraft sees can be incorporated into the earth's time light cone in real time, and human will can be reflected wherever the aircraft reaches.
This is the sign of interstellar civilization.
…
After taking a few heavy breaths, Director Niu slowly resumed his thinking.
"What is the current... public progress of this technology?"
"The public progress is probably that the theory has just been laid, and everyone is still considering mathematical models. But I have always been more radical and believe in doing it first and then talking about it."
Director Niu gave Ye Ming a thumbs up.
Ye Ming smiled and said seriously: "The current model and experiment I have established is to complete over-distance communication through two dimensional wave encryption terminals interfering with each other. But I think there should be a system that can achieve point-to-many, Infinitely interfering.”
As he spoke, Ye Ming briefly introduced the principles to Director Niu.
"I don't understand, but I'm very shocked." Director Niu exhaled slowly and laughed: "You mean you don't plan to make it public, right?"
"Well, the technology does not need to be disclosed, and it is not intended to be used on a large scale - the way I can think of it now is to establish multiple independent terminals for interference, and then these terminals form a topological structure and merge into a processing system, and then the system is connected with AI The tower is directly connected.”
"In this way, Alta can establish communications with those terminals in a timely manner through this topology system."
"Okay - how big is the terminal?"
"It shouldn't be big. After integration, it will be about the size of a mobile phone."
Director Niu shrank: "Where's the bandwidth?"
"Depending on the power, it should be fine from 1g to 100g."
Director Niu immediately took a breath and exhaled: "Holy crap? If that's the case, we can build a very large-scale data direct connection computer room! Then replace the base station!"
Ye Ming nodded, but then said cautiously: "However, the stability and ultra-long distance have not been tested yet, and I don't know if there will be any interference with time, space and information when a dense array is formed - because it is interdimensional. There is an information singularity.”
Director Niu nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes, yes! This kind of use of dimensions... really requires caution. Don't cause the dimension to collapse by then, which will not be beautiful..."
Ye Ming suddenly became happy: "Dimension collapse? What is the state of dimension collapse?"
Director Niu laughed, spread his hands and said, "How do I know? Aren't you an expert? I should ask you."
Ye Ming smiled and shook his head: "The high-dimensional world can theoretically be regarded as a collection of infinite low-dimensional worlds. If it really collapses... it will probably cause the low-dimensional world to escape, or a large amount of energy will flow into the low-dimensional world... Well, in fact, according to the latest model, information is constantly generating higher-dimensional hypercube information space... and will not affect the higher-dimensional material space that contains our three-dimensional world."
"Can't understand."
"Okay, let's not talk about it then. But... there is another thing that I didn't bring up at the meeting."
"What's up?"
"Black hole." Ye Ming looked back at the clear blue sky outside the window and said softly: "Although we have never defined the unknown celestial body, everyone knows that it should be a special black hole."
Director Niu was slightly startled. He immediately thought of the last time Ye Ming went to war with Tianyan over this matter.
"Well, what's wrong with that black hole? Are you worried that it will...have an impact on the earth?" Director Niu frowned slightly, a little surprised: "Isn't it said that it is an exocelestial body and that it is the cause of the Coyinbo Belt? Besides, it only has the mass of a few Earths and is so far away, so it shouldn’t affect the Earth.”
Ye Ming shook his head slightly: "What I mean is, no matter how far it is, we cannot miss this opportunity."
"what chance?"
"The opportunity to drill a black hole."
Director Niu's eyes widened instantly. After a while, he finally let out a low "Holy shit"!
And when he realized that Ye Ming was not joking, he frowned instantly: "Drilling a black hole, or launching a detector?"
"Sending a detector to drill a black hole."
"...How long will the flight take?"
"According to the current calculated speed, its current distance from the earth is about 8 billion kilometers... If it uses a controllable nuclear fusion engine to accelerate at full speed, it will actually not take long..."
"How long will it take?"
"About 1,500 days."
Director Niu: "..."
Seeing that Lao Niu was speechless, Ye Ming smiled slightly: "Director Niu, have you ever thought about it, if the singularity of the black hole is really Einstein's Rosen Bridge..."
"That is the real sea of stars!"
