Chapter 313 – Faster-Than-Light! (1)
“Faster-than-light?!”
Chen Yu’s pupils shrank upon hearing these three words.
A wave of bullet comments also flooded the various livestream rooms.
[Faster-than-light?!]
[Faster-than-light?!]
[Einstein: That’s it, I give up. You guys have fun...]
How can something move faster than light?]
[Are you playing tricks on time?]
[Unacceptable! Unless you give me money.]
[Unacceptable! Unless you give me a wife.]
[There are no limits on the road of science and technology. After all, the theory of relativity is the theory of the last century. There’s no way it won’t get updated after four or five thousand years.]
[Maybe it travels through wormholes...]
After some time had passed, Chen Yu snapped out of his daze. An unspeakable excitement and joy then surged into his mind.
Although he didn’t know what method the spacecraft applied to let matter exceed the speed of light, anyone who understood astronomy, physics, and technology would understand what faster-than-light travel could bring.
Without a doubt, it would bring a huge technological leap for the entire civilization!
Subconsciously clenching his fists, Chen Yu calmed his emotions and looked up at the new human character once more. “Can you introduce how this ship exceeds the speed of light? Also, give us an introduction to the product’s basic information.”
Human beings were creatures used to always looking for a reference.
“Daddy, by performing quantum information fusion, you can get all the detailed information, parameters, control methods, and other information about the spacecraft. I will also disappear after the fusion is completed.”
“Disappear?” Frowning, Chen Yu asked, “Will you die?”
“As an information flow, I do not possess the concept of life and death. I will become one with you.”
“Possession?! Will I still be myself after that?”
“As an information flow, I do not possess the concept of life and death. You can think of me as a semi-substantial piece of knowledge. Just like reading a book, I am capable of changing the reader’s thoughts. However, I cannot possess the reader’s body.”
“I think I roughly understand now.” Chen Yu nodded thoughtfully. “Let’s conduct the quantum information fusion now, then.”
“Very well, Daddy. Please wait a moment, Daddy.”
After the human voice finished speaking, silence filled the cylindrical hall.
Meanwhile, Chen Yu remained standing still like a statue for some time...
[Hello? Did my internet crash?]
[The image isn’t moving.]
[The bullet comment section is still working, so it shouldn’t be a network problem.]
[What’s going on?]
[Host, can you let out a scream?]
[If you’re kidnapped, do the Panama Dance.]
[If you’re kidnapped, stab yourself with a knife.]
[Lolol, are you guys demons?]
[Don’t worry, the UP might be dead.]
The barrage of bullet comments continued for five minutes before Chen Yu regained consciousness and began moving again.
Turning around, Chen Yu carefully observed his surroundings. He then looked at the camera and sorted out the words in his mind before saying, “The fusion is complete. This feeling is amazing. To describe it using an inappropriate metaphor, it feels like I am a DNA segment, and the quantum information flow is also another DNA segment. The so-called information fusion is the act of piecing these two DNA segments together to obtain a DNA segment that has information that is superior in both quantity and accuracy.
“Meanwhile, everything in this universe is a materialized product made up of countless pieces of information!” Closing his eyes, Chen Yu carefully recollected the pleasure he felt from the information fusion. He then said quietly. “Four thousand years. Human civilization has developed to such an extent in just four thousand years.
Based on my current knowledge, humans living in the year 6800 will only need to experience a few more technological booms before every individual can become a colorless and invisible information flow. At that time, humans will become free of the constraints of the macrophysical world. Technology will also no longer have room for growth because the entire civilization would have been integrated with nature already.
“Humans will become the universe.
“The universe will be human!”
[Has the UP lost his mind?]
[I vaguely understand what he is saying, but when I think about it carefully, it still sounds like nonsense.]
[In other words, what awaits a civilization, in the end, is integration with the universe?]
[Life is made up of information, and the universe is also made up of information. Matter and energy are essentially information as well. In the end, it isn’t strange for humans to become information... What nonsense.]
[I don’t understand.]
[Simply put, a civilization that strikes to climb the tree of science and technology is doing so for the sake of getting rid of itself.:)]
[Death means eternal life.]
Opening his eyes, Chen Yu suppressed the insight within his heart and returned to the topic. “Let’s continue with the product review. The future world is too far away from us, so it is none of our concern. Now, let me introduce this spacecraft in detail. Everyone, make sure to pay attention because, believe me, the way it moves is truly magical.
“The Type-R Spacecraft is produced by Roaming Haha and supervised by the Proxima Conference in 6877. It is a small, private spacecraft classified as a Faster-Than-Light Spacecraft.
“That’s right.” Facing the camera and clapping his hands, Chen Yu said, “It is truly capable of exceeding the speed of light. Moreover, it isn’t just by one or two folds. Instead, it can surpass light speed by dozens, hundreds, and even thousands of times! What’s more amazing is that this method of travel doesn’t violate the theory of relativity!”
[Let’s spam ‘scary’ onto the screen! Quick!]
[Scary.]
[Scary.]
[Einstein: Not only are you jumping on my coffin, but you’re even trying to tear it open now?]
[Scary...]
“I can’t help but admit that Einstein and the other people who have contributed to the theory of relativity’s development are truly amazing! Even in the 69th century, the theory of relativity is still as unshakable as 1+1=2. No matter what kind of theories scholars come up with in the future, so long as the calculated result does not coincide with the theory of relativity, there is no doubt that the proposed theory is incorrect.”
After saying so, Chen Yu tilted his head before continuing, “So, doesn’t that mean that the modern quantum theory, which conflicts with the theory of relativity, is incorrect? But many products based on quantum theory have been created already, such as quantum computers, quantum entanglement, and quantum speed. China and America have even started a quantum technology competition...”
After pondering for some time and failing to come to a conclusion, Chen Yu decisively stopped thinking about the problem, “In short, the theory of relativity is correct. In that case, there are definitely problems with modern quantum theory. Researchers worldwide should be more cautious. Now, let us resume the introduction of FTL travel.”
Chen Yu raised his hand. Immediately afterward, a silver metal block suddenly spiraled out of the ground and quickly unfolded into a mahogany chair. He then sat on the chair and said, “As we all know, according to the theory of relativity, any object with mass cannot exceed the speed of light. Even reaching the speed of light is impossible because it requires infinite energy to accelerate the mass to such a speed. However, the energy of the universe is finite. Therefore, even if we use up all of the universe’s energy, we cannot accelerate an object with mass to light speed. At most, the object will reach 99.99% of the speed of light and never more.
“Yet, how does this spacecraft achieve FTL travel?
“The principle is simple.
“It isn’t moving at all...”
