Lighting up super-god technology in the Three-Body World
Chapter 163 Deep Sea Acceleration Fluid
Chapter 163 Deep Sea Acceleration Fluid
In the 35th year of the Xinyuan era,
Antimatter Engine Space Experiment Base
Ding Yi reported to Jiang Fan, holding a stack of data.
"President Jiang, the experiment was a great success. Utilizing the annihilation effect of matter and antimatter, the thruster was able to generate accelerations exceeding 100G, which is 20 times the previous maximum acceleration!"
Jiang Fan asked,
"What about the duration of acceleration?"
Ding Yi replied excitedly.
"It can last for 24 hours! Even within the framework of relativity, our spacecraft can still reach 20% of the speed of light!"
Jiang Fan wasn't as excited as Ding Yi, but a smile still appeared on his face.
"Great! The antimatter engine has increased our maximum space speed tenfold!"
Space speed is the result of the combined effect of acceleration and acceleration time.
In the original story, the interstellar warships built by Earth's humans more than two hundred years later, in Forward IV mode, could reach an acceleration of 120G, and could reach 15% of the speed of light in about 10.5 hours.
Earth's current technology cannot achieve such high acceleration. Before today, warships used a space travel strategy that traded time for speed.
Taking Luo Ji's Faraway Spaceship as an example, its maximum acceleration is only 5G. After humans are injected with a super gene, they don't even need to activate the gravity cancellation device; their bodies alone can withstand the gravitational effects caused by this level of acceleration.
It would take it 1.11 days to reach 1.6 percent of the speed of light. Assuming the spaceship weighs 1 tons, it would require 272 million tons of ordinary rocket fuel to achieve this acceleration over that time.
The fuel was 272 times heavier than the spacecraft itself, making it impossible.
Using nuclear fusion fuel would require 1830 tons, accounting for 15.5 percent of the spacecraft's mass. In addition, the same amount of fuel would be needed for deceleration. Therefore, almost one-third of the mass of the Far Wanderer is nuclear fusion fuel.
The energy conversion ratio of fuel limits the ability of human-made long-distance ships to accelerate continuously.
Even today, the fastest speed a human-made warship can travel in space is only 2 percent of the speed of light. Reaching this speed would require fuel that accounts for half the mass of the spaceship, which is already the limit.
If this kind of acceleration were placed on the apocalyptic battlefield in the original work, the water droplet would catch up with him in no time and kill him.
After Jiang Fan finished speaking, he asked,
"But our gravity device can only generate 10G of gravity. Even after all of it is canceled out by 100G of acceleration, there will still be 90G of gravity falling on the human body, which is equivalent to the pressure of a thousand meters deep in the ocean. It would crush a person."
Ding Yi clearly hadn't expected this. After hearing it, he was a little stunned, paused for a moment, then clapped his hands and said...
"Yes, the human body can't withstand such a huge acceleration. Our anti-gravity device needs to be strengthened tenfold!"
Jiang Fan shook his head.
"The energy required to create a 100G gravitational field by breaking the symmetry of space, plus the spacecraft fuel, exceeds the mass of the spacecraft itself."
"It would only be possible if the energy source were completely replaced with antimatter, but this technology is different from an antimatter engine. It requires extremely precise energy confinement techniques, which we cannot do at the moment."
Ding Yi scratched his head. He quickly calculated in his mind that Jiang Fan was right. Using antimatter as the energy source for all devices and using antimatter as a propulsion engine were completely different concepts.
The former is like threading a needle, while the latter is purely a matter of brute force.
"That's a bit difficult. The energy released by the matter-antimatter annihilation effect in an instant is too enormous. Apart from using a large space to consume it, there is no other way to use it for the time being."
"Having the answer makes solving problems faster," Jiang Fan replied directly.
“Research into using antimatter as a daily energy source is not urgent. But I do have an idea for how to ensure that humanity can survive such rapid acceleration.”
Ding Yi immediately pressed for an answer.
"what idea?"
Jiang Fan explained the original method.
"On Earth, fish exist at depths of several thousand meters in the ocean. How can they withstand such immense pressure?"
"The reason is that the seawater filled the entire bodies of those creatures, so the pressure inside and outside their bodies was the same."
"Could we create a special liquid to simulate the deep-sea environment, which can both balance the internal and external pressures on the human body under high-acceleration conditions and allow for breathing?"
Ding Yi's eyes lit up.
“Good idea, this is entirely feasible. I’ll go discuss it with Randall.” Jiang Fan smiled and saw him off.
That's the good thing about being a leader; you just need to come up with ideas, and someone will take care of getting them done.
Bubble, who was being held in Xiling's arms, broke free from Xiling's grasp and grumbled in dissatisfaction.
"Why won't you let me speak? You can contact me about the use of antimatter; I have all the relevant information."
The little girl remained the same for several years, not growing up at all, because she refused to receive data from the human world and lived solely through her human senses.
Jiang Fan pinched her cheeks with both hands and gently pulled them apart; they felt really nice.
"If you tell us everything, how can human society develop? We have to take things one step at a time to make progress."
The little girl frantically shook her head from side to side, trying to get rid of Jiang Fan's large hand, but she failed. Instead, Jiang Fan's hand pressed against Xiling's chest, and the soft touch instantly flashed through her brain like lightning.
He reflexively withdrew his arm and said to Bubble, feigning unhappiness,
"What's wrong with pinching you? Do you have to react like that?"
Bubble stuck out its tongue and made a funny face.
"Hehe, I won't let you pinch me. No one can mess with me except Xiling."
The word "play" made Jiang Fan and Xi Ling laugh simultaneously; it was the first time they had ever heard anyone say that about them.
After laughing,
Xiling looked at Jiang Fan gently and said,
"Have you gone back yet? Little Yinyin is still waiting for us to eat."
Upon hearing the name Luo Yinxi, Jiang Fan asked,
"What's that girl been up to lately? I haven't seen her in a long time."
Xiling retrieved the virtual biological gene tree.
"Yinyin feels that the process of the human body transmitting information through electrical signals and neurotransmitters is far too slow,"
"Especially after the first generation of super genes gradually became widespread, many people experienced a disconnect between their perceptions and reality,"
"It's like an adult's soul residing in a child's body. The brain clearly feels that there is something it can handle, but the body can't react at all."
"In Yinyin's words, human thought processes have become faster, and the body has become stronger, but the neural networks that connect everything have not changed,"
"So she's been trying to find a neural pattern for a fast response for a long time, but without success."
Jiang Fan shook his head slightly.
"This is no longer a problem that can be solved simply by relying on biotechnology. Let's go back. This girl needs a little reminder."
Xiling nodded, and the two adults and one child left the experimental base and took the space elevator back to the ground.
the other side,
Ding Yi approached Randall to discuss the special liquid Jiang Fan had proposed. The two shared similar views: this stuff was feasible, and they named it Deep-Sea Acceleration Fluid.
