Deep Space Fleet

Time sped forward again...

Many stories happened, many stories ended...

Now is 3553, another cool year.

During hibernation and waking up again and again, Zhang Yuan has gradually forgotten the concept of time. For him, there is not much difference between the 31st century, the 36th century, or the 40th century.

Or rather, all astronauts are like this.

The conditions of the Earth Age can only maintain the minimum living standards, and do not support large-scale experimental research. Except for some advances in biology and information technology, most of the technology has stayed at the stage of departure in 2264.

Looking at the empty ceiling and the milky white light, Zhang Yuan murmured to himself, this seems to be the fourth time...has hibernation awakened?

In 1300 years, the spacecraft has traveled a distance of nearly 9.1 light years.

This is definitely a huge milestone in human history. But it is a pity that the human beings on the earth don't care and don't know the achievement of this milestone.

"Um...in the spaceship, did something big happen?" Zhang Yuan looked at Lin Xuanxuan who was standing next to the hospital bed, and he was in a good mood. It is indeed a good thing to have a familiar female companion.

"Don't be scared, aliens are coming!" Lin Xuanxuan said mysteriously while peeling an apple: "More than a hundred years ago, astronomers observed an alien spacecraft, and it flew past with a huff. Already!"

"Really?!" Zhang Yuan raised his eyebrows, he couldn't believe it in his heart, "Could it be that our spaceship has been hijacked by aliens, and you have been controlled by aliens?"

"Of course it's true!" Soon, Lin Xuanxuan made a grimace: "Zhang Yuan, I'm Ami Balaba from the Zenith Star, please hand over your precious beef jerky... Otherwise, I will bite you to death! "

Zhang Yuan couldn't help laughing, followed by bouts of dizziness.

His current weak body is not capable of enduring such emotional fluctuations.

There was a sharp warning sound from the medical equipment, and Lin Xuanxuan realized that she had done something wrong, so she quickly pressed the alarm of the machine. If the head nurse found out that she was flirting with patients, she would definitely be scolded to death, even if she was a life partner.

She quickly said: "It is true that an alien spacecraft has been observed! Wait a minute, I will show you the news."

"But you should rest first and sleep first, otherwise I will be scolded!"

After several hours of forced sleep, Zhang Yuan finally had some strength.

Looking at the photo on the screen, Zhang Yuan's pupils shrank slightly...

it turns out……

There really are alien spaceships!

More than a hundred years ago, a UFO passed by the Earth Times, and the minimum distance...is about 0.12 light-years!

"How could it be... such a coincidence?" Zhang Yuan was extremely surprised.

Looking at the news on the website, a large number of messages and related meeting reports, it is definitely not a joke of Lin Xuanxuan.

Fortunately, when the alien spacecraft was observed, it happened to be a new year, and Captain Lin was also awake. He immediately ordered the entire spacecraft to remain in radio silence to reduce the possibility of being observed by the other party.

The Earth Age is not a military spacecraft, and it does not carry any nuclear bombs, not even electromagnetic guns, lasers and other weapons. Every bit of load capacity in the spaceship is precious. Since there is no ability to maintain these delicate weapons for a long time, they are simply not installed.

The soldiers in the spacecraft are equivalent to acting as police officers. If they want to wear firearms, they need to make an additional report.

In the situation where human beings are unarmed, Zhang Yuan certainly believes that Captain Lin's decision is quite correct, and radio silence is already the best way. Regardless of whether the aliens have good intentions or malicious intentions, there is no need to use the lives of the entire cabin to bet on whether the other party's morality is high.

At that time, people just expected that in the vast universe, the other party would not find themselves 0.12 light-years away. This distance is actually quite far, equivalent to 7600 AU. In comparison, the distance between the sun and Pluto is only 59 AU.

Because it has been more than a hundred years since this incident happened, and the ending is already doomed, Zhang Yuan is naturally not so panicked.

But he could imagine the great fear at that time, just like an unarmed baby who accidentally encountered a Tyrannosaurus rex in the jungle.

To this day, I can still see people’s desperate messages on the Internet.

"...I can't go to sleep for a long time, I'm afraid there will be a catastrophe in the next second. There is no way for light-speed weapons to observe. Once observed, it means being hit."

"I'm so scared, does anyone want to hug me?"

"...I think of the miso soup my mother made, and I really want to have a sip."

Fortunately, under the strict control of the top management, no major chaos occurred.

From this perspective, the new Captain Lin's administrative order is quite timely.

It took about half a year for the two spacecraft to approach each other, and then gradually separated, nothing happened.

People were able to observe the other party entirely because the other party's spacecraft was extremely large, comparable to a planet, and it was actively emitting light, otherwise it would be impossible to know.

Zhang Yuan carefully analyzed a series of information brought about by this incident.

He sighed softly: "In the vast space, we suddenly encountered an extremely large alien spacecraft... This probability is like throwing a stone into space at random, and it hits hundreds of light years The head of an alien."

"...We didn't hit it!" Lin Xuanxuan said with a smile: "It's 0.12 light-years away, which is quite a large search range! And we have been sailing for 1300 years, such a long time, Even if a small probability event happens..."

Zhang Yuan tilted his head and thought for a while: "I think this can be used to estimate the activity frequency of extraordinary civilizations in the universe!"

Zhang Yuan looked up some UFO records recorded in history, "In the first year of the founding of Emperor Cheng of the Western Han Dynasty, in August, there are two consecutive months, seeing the east in the morning."

The object that can appear in the east in the early morning is definitely not the moon, let alone two moons, and its shape is like a crescent moon supporting each other. It is obviously not a natural star, but somewhat like a modern spaceship.

The "Mengxi Bi Tan" written by Shen Kuo in the Song Dynasty also recorded some stories about UFOs: There is a strange big bead in Yangzhou area, which is shaped like a clam shell, which is a typical flying saucer shape and emits a strong light. It has stayed in the local area for more than ten years, staying in three lakes successively, perhaps collecting aquatic organisms on the earth.

The author also emphasized that many residents have seen it, proving that it was not imagined or fabricated by himself.

Of course, whether or not these historical records happened is yet to be considered, and can only be used as a reference.
