Deep Space Fleet

Professor Wei Jiahui looked at the silent crowd and sighed slightly: "The HIA genome and the BIA genome have been proved to be some relatively successful sequences by experiments. The current biotechnology is no longer comparable to what it used to be."

"Maybe we can make a series of optimizations to reduce the probability of mentally handicapped babies. These genetic modification plans are definitely feasible."

"As for the anti-eye man project, we need to study carefully to splice the genes of alien species into humans."

"But, Professor Wei..." Another objection was expressed.

...

The entire meeting lasted for two days. After extensive discussion and voting, Zhang Yuan felt dizzy, and many things overturned his imagination.

The final voting results are in.

The result was - nothing passed.

Even the most acceptable "social public support system" was rejected... All the debates have turned into a battle of words without nutrition.

After coming out of the conference room, everyone felt a deep sense of frustration.

"From this moment on, we seem to have become sinners of history." A woman is feeling: "But I really have no way to vote for it. I really can't do it..."

Zhang Yuan couldn't help shaking his head slightly, sighing secretly how difficult it is for a civilization to get rid of mediocrity.

The New Civilization Historiography has pointed out several brand-new directions. Whether people believe it or not is one question, and whether it can be done is another question. It is very difficult to be purely rational and obey calculations...

...

In the months that followed, interest in this meeting and the historiography of new civilizations reached an all-time high, even after it had passed.

Because this is a new year relationship, the popularity is very strong, and discussions of different opinions can be heard in every corner of the cabin.

"Ah... that sounds very interesting! It's a pity that I don't have the right to attend the meeting, what a pity." Lin Xuanxuan was lying on the hospital bed, her face was a little pale because she had just woken up from hibernation.

"Can you really accept the anti-eye plan? Turn your retina upside down?" Zhang Yuan asked in a little surprise.

"Haha, because I am proficient in the structure of the human body, and I deeply understand the stupidity of the Creator! Xiao Xia, what do you think?"

A nurse nearby also nodded, "Dr. Zhang, in fact, many structures of the human body are really stupid, not only the eyes, but also wisdom teeth, hemorrhoids, joints, all kinds of messy blood vessels, nerves... the human life span Such a long time, and the loss of collagen is so fast..."

Lin Xuanxuan smiled and said: "I am more concerned about whether the shape of the eyes will change, will they become more beautiful? If they really become octopus eyes, forget it. If the eyes become bigger It looks better, so what?"

"It's just that the retina is inverted, it doesn't matter... we just need to be more beautiful!"

Zhang Yuan was a little speechless, perhaps Lin Xuanxuan's thinking was not a special case, and more women thought this way in the first place. They don't really care if the genetically modified appearance doesn't change much.

He joked: "If you can modify your appearance to be more beautiful, maybe you women will become crazy supporters?"

But it is a pity that human beings are not yet able to modify at will like gods when it comes to exploring at the genetic level. It is extremely difficult to correct the retina, and scientists are absolutely unwilling to increase the amount of engineering in this case...

Zhang Yuan peeled an apple slowly: "You have to know that after the retina is modified, although humans and anti-eyed people will not be reproductively isolated, the offspring are likely to become blind!"

"Blind people are blind, anyway, people don't have children...you are so stupid! This kind of genetic adjustment plan, as long as it is matched with the social public raising system, isn't it enough? Even if reproductive isolation is formed, so what? You can still get married , and then... fall in love."

Zhang Yuan had goosebumps all over his body: "I just realized now that your mind seems to be very open... You must be asked to do ideological propaganda. You might as well quit your job as a doctor and go to the Propaganda Department."

He handed the peeled apple to her hand, "Eat the apple, I still have work to do, so let's go first."

"Haha, come again when you have time!" Lin Xuanxuan waved her hand very understandingly.

...

Zhang Yuan is getting more and more busy. As a staff member of the 16th level, he has started to take charge of more and more things in this great year.

After 1,000 years of voyage, the spacecraft is no longer a new spacecraft, and various problems, large and small, appear from time to time.

The nuclear fusion engine has not been started for a long time. In order to prevent problems before they happen, the engine was started for a month a few days ago and produced a lot of data.

Their group of senior engineers needs to use these data to check whether the fusion engine is aging.

If it needs to be replaced, it must be replaced as soon as possible during this big year.

As soon as he entered the door, Senior Brother Zhao greeted him: "Zhang Yuan, come and see if the data here is a little different from usual..."

Zhang Yuan looked at the screen, calculated in his mind for a long time, and then said: "It may be that the device for detecting data is not working well. Other reasons, there should not be only a few mistakes..."

This kind of skill of distinguishing where the damage is through data is only possessed by these few senior talents.

"Ha, that's what I thought too, how about it, do you want to get into the engine and have a look?"

Zhang Yuan was stunned, "OK!"

After the two made a report, they quickly got a response from their superiors.

"Come here!"

Zhang Yuan and Zhao Qingfeng carried the detection equipment and got in through a small window.

This is the core reaction chamber of the engine, without any air and gravity, the two can only rely on the jet device behind the spacesuit to move slowly.

The central reaction chamber is somewhat similar to a huge circular room. When it starts to work, it will generate an ultra-high voltage magnetic field, which will gather heat in the center and produce nuclear fusion.

The two split up and checked the surrounding devices one by one.

Zhang Yuan suddenly asked in the headset: "Brother Zhao, now that the vote has failed, what should we do? The results of the public's hot discussion are also one-sided..."

"Are we really not going to make any changes? I don't think it's very good."

Brother Zhao smiled: "If you already knew the content of this meeting in advance, do you think these things will be passed?"

"No..." Zhang Yuan thought for a while, "It is almost certain that these decisions will not be passed."

"So, don't underestimate the IQ of the old captain... It doesn't matter whether the vote is passed or not." Senior Brother Zhao laughed, "It's just a greeting to everyone in advance and a mental preparation."

"You mean..." Zhang Yuan said in surprise.

"Do you think the Scientific Council is a place for democracy?"

"Is not it?"

Brother Zhao smiled: "Zhang Yuan, all voting rights do exist, but they don't necessarily exist... Democracy, compared with the history of new civilizations, this kind of higher-level wisdom, is it too stupid?"

"Have you forgotten that the history of new civilization itself has a certain predictive ability, as long as we adjust some historical nodes implicitly, then..."

"These things, whether people accept it or not..."

"The times let them appear, and they will definitely appear!"
