After Dean Qi obtained the authorization, he immediately directed the space telescope towards the general location from which the unknown signal was emitted and conducted a wide-area detection scan.
This detection involved optical photography and pixel analysis.
The space telescopes ultra-high-speed camera can take 11 million photos per second.
The information collected from these photos is compared bi-directionally with the information obtained by the photon quantum information capture system.
Then, from the vast amount of data, special data are identified.
In less than ten minutes, the space telescope had locked onto about twenty suspect targets and then began targeted scanning.
The first target was ruled out.
It was a wandering planet.
The second target was ruled out.
It was a special interstellar dust cloud, very valuable for research, but not the target they were currently seeking.
The third, fourth, fifth
One by one, suspicious targets were ruled out, but the so-called special signal was not found.
Updted on BX0VEL.cmTang Rui looked at the images on the large screen and smirked.
It had been over an hour, yet nothing was found.
He guessed it was another false alarm, getting him excited for nothing.
Just as Tang Rui was about to turn off the screen and go out for a walk, a dilapidated spaceship appeared on the large screen.
Hmm?
Did they really find a spaceship?
Red Lotus, zoom in on the photo.
Okay, Master.
With the data from the space telescope and Red Lotuss computing power, the model of the spaceship was clearly displayed before him.
An olive-shaped spaceship with engine nozzles at the rear.
Overall, it looked standard, and even the surface of the spaceship had no cannons, appearing quite harmless.
However, the surface of this spaceship did have some damaged areas, whether it was from hitting meteorites or being attacked by weapons was unknown.
Tang Rui saw the spaceship.
Dean Qi saw it too.
He immediately reported it.
This was no small matter.
Upon receiving the news, the authorities quickly arranged a group of people to verify the situation and then discuss it.
At this time, Tang Rui was calculating the situation of the spaceship, especially its flying speed and trajectory.
Master, based on wavelength analysis, the flying speed of this spaceship is 8600 kilometers per second, and its orbit is towards the outer arm, Red Lotus displayed the spaceships data.
According to the spaceships orbit, it was not flying towards the Solar System but towards the outer arm, which puzzled Tang Rui.
Honestly, putting aside other performances of this spaceship, just the engine power alone was no joke.
Interstellar travel still using reaction propulsion devices, thats laughable.
Not to mention a warp drive or spatial jump.
You should at least have a curvature engine.
Otherwise, in the scale of the universe, especially crossing the arm, when would you ever get there?
Even without considering the issue of time.
What about the issue of supplies?
The engine of this spaceship, whether it was an electric propulsion engine or a particle stream engine, regardless of the type, there would be consumption, even if this consumption was very low.
But once the journey is lengthened, this consumption becomes extremely terrifying. Without supplies, its impossible to travel for a long time.
Even heavy nuclear fusion, which could burn fuel directly into iron, couldnt withstand such long-duration travel.
So, Tang Rui felt something was off about this spaceship.
At the very least, this spaceship did not seem like a regular inter-arm traveling spaceship.
Master, a video call request from a secure line is coming in. Do you want to accept? As Tang Rui pondered, Red Lotus prompted.
Bring it in. Tang Rui knew it must be about the alien spaceship.
Sure enough.
After the secure video conference started, the situation of the alien spaceship was brought up.
This is the first time humanity has discovered an extraterrestrial technological artifact, according to photos taken by the space telescope and related detection data.
Currently, this spaceship is not flying towards our Solar System, so we dont need to worry about it attacking us.
But we must accelerate our development pace, because we are not alone in the universe.
After the opening remarks were finished.
Everyone began to speak freely.
The main discussion was about the issue of alien civilizations, completely open to imagination.
Actually, regarding the issue of alien civilizations, I have a point of view. In fact, our human civilizations technological level is not very low in the entire universe, or rather, it can be considered among the forefront.
???
After listening, Tang Rui was full of question marks.
Who gave you that confidence?
With humanitys level, to be ranked among the forefront of the entire universe.
I know everyone does not believe this statement, actually, I dont believe it much myself, but mathematics does not lie.
Our Milky Ways center is a supermassive black hole, so what do you think if there is a habitable planet around the center of the Milky Way, and there is intelligent life on that planet, how long would their one minute be equivalent to our time?
If there really is a habitable planet around the center of the Milky Way, then one minute there would be equivalent to 150 years for us.
Correct, by this calculation, the stars around the center of the Milky Way were the first to be born and also the first to die.
If there is a civilization at the center of the Milky Way, then the technological level of this civilization would be equivalent to us 5 billion years later.
But in fact, this is impossible because the universe has only been born for 13.8 billion years.
And this 13.8 billion years is calculated based on our understanding of time. If it is calculated based on the time around a supermassive black hole, it might not even be 3.8 billion years.
So, our perception of time is different. Its possible that when they had already begun to fly out of their planet, we were still in the ancient tribal era.
But when they started interstellar travel, we had already entered the industrial revolution.
When they were ready to come over to colonize Earth, the day their fleet arrived, our technological level had already surpassed theirs.
Based on this situation, I simply calculated with a mathematical model, using our human template to substitute into the intelligence and technological development speed of alien civilizations, and the result is that the highest technological level of alien civilizations is equivalent to us developing for 55 million years later.
It sounds terrifying, but technological development will reach a bottleneck at a certain level. The resources of a planet, the lifespan of intelligent life, and the categories of technological development, etc., all affect the speed of technological development.
If there are any disasters during this period, its not good; the technological level might even regress.
So, even if its the core area of the Big Bang, which is the earliest born civilization, under different time flow rates, without encountering disasters and safely developing, its only more developed than us by 55 million years.
Averaging this data across the entire universe, then the technological level of humanity is pretty high..
