Chapter 43 One Hundred Million Explorers, Sky Shield Project
When they heard about the contribution of civilization, the leaders of Kate Civilization and the messengers of Chasing Light Civilization were excited.
This is a deal that will not lose money.
The only worry is to encounter a powerful and malicious civilization, but Kate Civilization expects that it will take hundreds of years to reach Level 2, and by then it will be considered powerful in the civilization sequence of the entire universe.
In addition, with the Civilization Federation, both civilizations feel that the probability of problems will be very small.
So after about 5 days of discussion, the leaders of Kate Civilization agreed.
As for the Chasing Light Civilization, they themselves know very well that they are not real members of the Civilization Federation, but a loser civilization, so they have no right to refuse.
This is the sadness of their civilization.
But in more than 2,000 years, they have also thought clearly that although they are a loser civilization, they have not been abused or discriminated against, but have been helped to accelerate their growth.
Except for a few extremists in their civilization, their overall tendency is that being enslaved by a well-intentioned civilization is not bad.
Then it is time to discuss the details.
In Ella's plan, most of the spacecraft of the Interstellar Explorers Association will be provided by it in the early stage. After all, the speed of the spacecraft of both Kate civilization and Light Chasing civilization is not ideal.
As for small and medium-sized spacecraft, Ella's technology can already achieve 1/50 of the speed of light.
This can greatly shorten the time cost of exploration.
At the same time, after using its spacecraft, it can also collect all information through those spacecraft, so that Kate civilization and Light Chasing civilization can hide nothing from it.
It will also provide the two civilizations with corresponding dormant equipment for long-distance interstellar navigation.
On this basis, the existence of the Interstellar Explorers Association will also greatly stimulate the internal industrial upgrading of the two civilizations. This is a double-edged sword. It may make Kate civilization out of their control, but on the other hand, it also uses the entire Kate civilization to develop new technologies and gather the strengths of many families.
It is unrealistic to want to develop vigorously without any risk.
The entire Interstellar Explorers Association is actually for the service of science and technology.
Just as war promotes the development of science and technology, so do expansion and exploration.
Ella will open an interstellar era of navigation like the era of navigation of human civilization.
In this process, they may encounter anything, but the path of civilization's advancement should be to grow through exploration. If they are timid, they will not come to Proxima Centauri, but stay on the Hundred Eyes Star, hidden in the dark starry sky outside the star system.
Ella is also implementing Yan Xia's will.
In Yan Xia's view, humans have already lost everything, so... what else can they not lose?
The world always favors those who are unstoppable. Although there are also "hiding ways", hiding behind will often become the Qing Dynasty, which is closed to the outside world.
After all, they are in a huge starry sky, and the so-called systems in novels are also insignificant in this starry sky.
A civilization can be as small as a few hundred million like the Hundred Eyes Clan, or as small as tens of billions like humans and Kate civilization.
If a civilization controls a large area of the starry sky, then their population may be hundreds of billions, trillions, hundreds of thousands, and hundreds of trillions. The universe can support so many lives, and advanced civilizations are not short of resources to feed hundreds of trillions of lives.
The imagination of hundreds of trillions of lives, its scientific potential is so great that it is unimaginable.
Far more than what Ella, an AI, can bring.
Yan Xia never regarded Ella as a panacea, so he needed something else, and the Civilization Federation would be his helper.
When the document of the Interstellar Explorers Association was issued.
A stone stirred up a thousand waves.
The entire Kate civilization was boiling.
For an advanced civilization, individuals have long ceased to serve as basic productivity, and only work as managers, entertainment information producers, service practitioners, etc.
Although these jobs are easy, safe, and stable, they are extremely depressing.
Any advanced civilization rises in countless competitions, and their instincts are fighting, bloodthirsty, and impulsive.
As far as Ella knows, there are a large number of private battle fields within the Kate civilization, similar to the ring, but larger and bloodier.
Every year, more than one million Kates die in these battle fields. You can imagine the prosperity of this industry.
Even the Kate civilization officials do not prohibit it, because everyone knows that any creature must vent its desires and cannot be overly restrained. If desires accumulate, they will eventually erupt like a volcano, and the sky will collapse and the earth will crack.
Therefore, Ella never worried about the failure of the Interstellar Explorers Association.
It was just as it calculated.
In just 10 years, the number of registered explorers of the Interstellar Explorers Association reached 100 million!
In the next 50 years, more than 200,000 small and medium-sized spacecraft left the Kate civilization from the civilization port and headed for the depths of the universe.
After that, the information of the Interstellar Explorers Association was also transmitted to the Hundred Eyes Star, and a wave of waves was set off within the Light Chasing Civilization.
There are more than 10 million registered explorers.
A civilization port was also established on the surface of the Hundred Eyes Star as a resting point for explorers. This civilization port was later called the interstellar springboard.
When the Interstellar Explorers Association got on track.
Ella also started the second phase of the Dyson Cloud Project.
At the same time, through the clone Yan Xia, he discussed another plan with the top leaders of the Kate civilization.
——Sky Shield Project
The plan is just like its name, a huge shield.
The shield exists outside the Proxima star system and revolves around the star.
The reason for building the "Sky Shield" is to defend against the upcoming threat of civilization.
When the explorers go out, if there is widespread life in the universe, the explorers will definitely encounter other civilizations.
Other civilizations will also learn their coordinates through explorers, and may then launch interstellar high-energy weapons.
Therefore, the Sky Shield exists.
It is divided into three layers. The first layer is the early warning layer 0.5 light years away from Proxima Centauri. It is almost a complete circle. 10,000 small detectors will be placed in every 1 square astronomical unit. When a threat is detected, the signal will be transmitted to the second layer immediately.
The second layer is the deflection layer, which is 0.2 light years away from Proxima Centauri. It uses the four basic forces to deflect or slow down high-energy weapons so that they cannot hit the target.
The third layer is the defense layer, which is only 0.05 light years away from Proxima Centauri. It covers most of the civilization facilities in Proxima Centauri. This layer uses a lot of technology to connect to the Kate civilization energy depot to achieve maximum strength of defense.
The plan has received strong support from the Kate Civilization.
It will be built simultaneously with the second phase of the Dyson Cloud.
It is expected that after the second phase of the Dyson Cloud is completed, Ella will start the "Searching for Strings Plan" to completely unify the four fundamental forces.
