173: Chapter 173 About Artificial Black Holes

The gravity-gravitational wave device at the Lunar Base is a reverse application of the quantum entanglement effect. By using the string effect of the first dimension, particles arranged in a linear fashion are accelerated to a certain degree and then subjected to range fluctuations in a specific order.

This forms a super-gravity effect on the quantum macroscopic scale.

The range of this super-gravity quantum fluctuation is controllable, and objects within this range will be in a blurred critical zone of time distortion.

This blurred critical zone can generally offset a large portion of the gravitational effects from space. Ultimately, it produces about half the effect of Earth's gravity on the human body, and when added to the Moon's own gravity (which is one-sixth of Earth's), it can roughly simulate three-quarters of the gravity humans experience on Earth.

For the Lunar Base, this is basically sufficient.

Chu Ge felt that this so-called twisted blurred critical point was more like a balance of certain forces; for the Lunar Base, it was a balance of gravity.

Similar to the Moon's tidal locking, this locking mode requires the Sun's gravitational pull on it and the Earth's gravitational pull on it to reach a certain perfect balance, so that it can always revolve around the Earth.

The result is that the Moon can only face the Earth with one side, and this balance is not unbreakable either, because the Moon has always been trying to break free from Earth's constraints.

The Sun's gravitational pull on it is much greater than Earth's, but it is closer to Earth, and distance is inversely proportional to gravity.

If you extend the timeline, the ancient Moon looked larger and brighter because, at that time, the Moon was closer to Earth. Now, it is constantly moving closer to the Sun.

It's just that this "defection" speed is very slow, about 3.82 CM away from Earth per year.

"System Big Brother, wake up." Chu Ge had been researching data until late at night again, and when he saw parts he really couldn't understand, he couldn't help but start summoning his cheat again.

"Why is this blurred critical zone of yours so mysterious? It sounds like you're trying to get us all into another dimension, right? It's quite scary."

[The escape velocity of a black hole is extremely fast; even the speed of a photon is far from it, so photons will be attracted into the black hole.]

[The prerequisite for traversing a black hole is that you must know the black hole's escape velocity, and then move at a speed faster than this escape velocity to pass through; otherwise, you will only get lost in the time layers of the black hole.]

[When your speed is roughly equivalent to its linear spin velocity, this space becomes the blurred critical zone of the time distortion effect. Here, you might enter two worlds simultaneously, which is what you call parallel worlds.]

[Of course, with your current technology, even if you build an aerospace carrier, you cannot traverse a black hole, because according to the data in my database, although black holes vary in individual size, range, and energy, they have one thing in common: their escape velocity is never lower than the speed of light.]

[Jump engines cannot be manufactured yet, and even if they could be, with the energy of a first-generation jump engine, it would probably be very difficult to traverse a black hole. Therefore, the system recommends that the host prioritize utilizing the energy of your current galaxy. Only then can you explore other galaxies through black holes. Every highly developed population follows this law of development; you cannot skip steps.]

System Big Brother seemed to be in a good mood today, and for the first time ever, he didn't mock Chu Ge, but patiently acted as a teacher and directly pointed out the important nodes of Chu Ge's interstellar plan.

"My galaxy, do you mean the Solar System or the Milky Way?"

[The Milky Way? You're overthinking it. The Solar System is your newbie village; please develop well here first, okay? The general principle for equipment formation is that you can perfectly utilize most of the Sun's energy.]

"Hmm, got it. Just one more question: have you been playing Legend lately?"

[...]

Silence meant admission. Chu Ge suddenly felt a chill down his spine in the middle of the night. What on earth was this thing?

"Then what level are we at roughly? What level of technology is needed to create this artificial black hole?"

[Interstellar civilizations can be roughly divided into three stages.]

[The first stage requires the ability to fully utilize all the energy of the planet you are on; for your planet, this means being able to fully develop Earth's potential.]

[The second stage requires fully utilizing the energy of the star in your local small galaxy and being able to travel freely within this galaxy; for the host, this means your Solar System.]

[The third stage requires mastering the energy of parts of the galaxy's nebulae and achieving free travel between small galaxies; for you, this means being able to travel freely within the Milky Way, utilizing the energy of the major stars in the Milky Way, breaking free from the constraints of this nebula, and attempting to explore other Nebula Clusters.]

[An artificial black hole requires reaching the third stage of technological level to have any hope of being built.]

"According to you, is our current technological level at the first stage?"

[To be precise, it's 70% of the first stage, still a long way off...]

Chu Ge gave up; this was a long way off.

He prepared to wash up and go to sleep; he had no interest in black holes anymore. This was truly getting a bit too ridiculous.

Also, according to what System Big Brother said earlier, this was a type of space-time channel. If this side was himself, the other side must be another world.

If that world wasn't as powerful as Chu Ge, that would be fine; he would essentially ascend to become a heavenly god. But if he spent all that time and effort to cross over only to find himself in a world filled with gods and immortals, that would be miserable.

Am I crazy? Why would I run over there just to be someone else's monkey?

Thinking of this, Chu Ge shivered and didn't continue down that train of thought. He stood up and walked to the balcony, looking up at the bright moon high in the sky. Combining this with the progress report of the Lunar Base from earlier, he suddenly laughed,

"Uh, Sister Moon, sorry, by this time next year, I might have to go behind you, dig a big hole in, um, roughly your butt area, and bury something in it. Don't mind it when the time comes, okay?"

The industrial zone in the distance was still brightly lit, and the roar of machines faintly echoed in Chu Ge's ears. He watched for a while before turning around to wash up.

Over the next half a month, Chu Ge continued to shuttle back and forth in the Dockyard Base, acting as a supervisor and firefighter, going wherever he was called.

Gradually, the construction of the aerospace carrier entered a stable period, and unexpected situations became fewer and fewer. By the time Chu Ge hadn't received any emergency calls for several days, he was "unemployed."

Reducing the frequency of his visits to the work area, Chu Ge began to concentrate on entering data for the Lunar Base.

In late October, the north gradually entered autumn. Today, Chu Ge was typing away on his keyboard in the office when his phone on the desk rang abruptly.

Chu Ge picked it up and saw it was a call from Academician Chen.

"Old Chen?"

"Little Chu, how are things over there? The new compound you asked the biological gene unit to make has been delivered. Do you need me to arrange for someone to send it to you?"

"No need, Old Chen. I plan to return to the Research Institute soon; the work here is basically stable." Chu Ge thought for a moment and replied directly.

"Good, then I'll wait for you at the Research Institute!"

"Alright."

Chu Ge put down the phone. Intermediate Gene Medicine can be synthesized? This was a big deal. Chu Ge thought for a moment, stood up, and walked toward Commander Wang's office.
