I am immortal with scientific thinking

Tick!
Tick ​​tock!

Tick ​​tock!

In the empty conference room, there was no clutter but a solemn table. Each of the table and chairs was made of the finest mahogany. The double-sided lacquer painting on the screen depicted the Qingming Festival on the River, and the walls were inlaid with the vast mountains and rivers of a great country.

The quartz clock on the center wall of the conference room, with its sound accurate to every hour, every minute, and every second, is echoing crisply, never stopping, without end, as if recording the wonderful and great moments of mankind in this small conference room under continuous and tiny fragments of time and space.

This is the country of Donghua.

A conference room where guests from all over the world come.

But at this moment, the only ones who can step into this place are representatives from three major countries.

Led by a dedicated staff, three people entered the conference room one after another.

The first person to step in was a burly, broad-shouldered, middle-aged man with brown hair and blue eyes.

As soon as he entered the room, he glanced around sharply, and then sat down carelessly on one of the chairs in the conference room.

He is the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Northern Russia and also the commander of an army group in his country.

During the ten years of war, every time he went on a diplomatic mission to a small country, he would have his special forces sneak in secretly to cooperate with him in carrying out the decapitation plan when he was in the capital of the small country.

If the other party cooperates obediently, only thousands or tens of thousands of people from that government will die. If they dare to resist, nuclear bombs will be sent to that country the next day.

With this brutal and unreasonable diplomatic style, he blew up the oil-rich countries in South America and dealt a fatal blow to the complete collapse of their currency-oil system.

"I didn't expect it to be Minister Inov. I didn't expect it to be you. I wonder if you'd be interested in a drink tonight?"

Following closely behind was a blonde beauty with big wavy hair. The bra clasp in front of her could hardly cover her turbulent waves. Her flaming red lips were sexy and charming. Although it was a formal and serious uniform, it made her look extremely seductive.

"Haha, good! Good! Good! They say that Ms. Daisyka is the best at sleeping with men. I wonder how many leaders she has conquered with her beauty. It's a good opportunity for me to try her skills tonight!"

Yirofu burst into laughter, put his arm around the woman's waist and pressed her on her legs. The latter smiled sweetly at this moment, not caring at all.

"In this solemn occasion, you two should be more careful. After all, this is the only way to show our long-standing aristocratic etiquette, isn't it?"

As they were talking, a neatly dressed, well-mannered man with gold-rimmed glasses and pure white gloves walked in. He was extremely meticulous in his manners, just like the nobleman mentioned in the legends.

"Yes, as the Orientals say, we should give face to the so-called host."

Irov looked at Aaron, a Western European man in front of him, frowned, and pushed the blonde beauty on his lap away.

After all, the guy in front of him is not someone to be trifled with. According to domestic intelligence, he seemed to have been a killer originally, and later took charge of the intelligence and assassination organizations in Western Europe. Every time he was sent as an envoy to a small country, the key political figures of that country died unexpectedly, which was a special coincidence.

Soldiers, killers, public relations... It is almost impossible for these people to become foreign ministers in peacetime, but in this era of war, they are unexpectedly reasonable, at least in the eyes of the small countries that were exterminated by them.

"By the way, what does Donghua mean?" Daisy looked around and said with a smile, "Calling us here at this time, are you willing to negotiate?"

"Opening the national market, abolishing tariffs, establishing concessions, dividing the territory... Even our great leader would not agree to such absurd conditions, let alone the Donghua people?" Aaron adjusted his glasses and said with interest, "So the leader is also very interested. At this critical moment, what is the significance of holding the United Nations General Assembly in Donghua?"

"Meaning? Of course it's a matter concerning the survival of our human civilization."

A strong and powerful voice sounded behind the three people.

Looking back, I saw a middle-aged man walking towards me with his head held high.

His demeanor was elegant and gentle, as if he were a young master from some wealthy family, but his face was resolute and he walked with a military demeanor, like a promising young general in ancient times.

"So it's Ambassador Zhang. At this point, does your country still want to prevent this nuclear war?" Aaron said calmly, "But we can't give up each other's interests. This is already an irreconcilable conflict. It can't be solved simply by one side advocating peace."

"Indeed, simple persuasion is not effective." Ambassador Zhang walked to the side of the crowd, sat down, raised his hand to signal for a seat, and then said in a deep voice, "The reason why the war broke out between us is because the internal conflicts among humans overwhelmed the need for external exploration, and the uneven distribution of benefits ultimately led to this world war that is difficult to end."

"But if external conflicts overwhelm internal disputes, this war may not be without an end!"

"Oh? Then I'm curious, what crisis is facing all of humanity right now that could prevent the outbreak of a global nuclear war?" Daisy stroked her tall peaks and smiled, "Cosmic rays, asteroids crashing into blue stars, super flares, supernova explosions, or theoretical micro black holes? At least according to the astronomy of our countries and the orbits of nearby stars, there is no such phenomenon happening at all."

"It may be more serious than cosmic disasters such as meteorite impacts, supernova explosions, and micro black holes." Ambassador Zhang said with a heavy face, "If the former is a possibility of escape with the current technology of human civilization, but what is happening now..."

At this point, Ambassador Zhang took a deep breath, and the three people in front of him looked at each other instantly. As old rivals, they naturally knew that the other party was extremely nervous.

However, among all the cosmic disasters listed by humans that can destroy civilization, none of them can compare to the disaster mentioned by the other party. So what exactly happened that made countless elites in this ancient Eastern country so taboo about it, and even believed that this was a huge external contradiction that could make all mankind put aside their hatred and unite.

Then, the three heard the following words from Ambassador Zhang:
"Have you ever heard of the [fine structure constant]?"

Ok……

【Fine structure constant】?
When the three heard this, they fell into silence for an instant. Their faces had heavy, thoughtful looks, but they were actually confused inside.

It is true that they are outstanding diplomats. They are also first-class experts in killing, arson, public relations, instigation, lurking...

However, they only know these professional terms that obviously involve physics, but do not understand their profound meaning.

But it doesn't matter. The clothes they wear are equipped with micro-eavesdropping devices, and the artificial cochleas placed in their ears can also transmit sound in real time. Behind them is the top think tank team of the great country behind them.

All decisions will be analyzed by the think tank team, who will then give recommendations.

"Fine structure constant?"

When these words were spoken, the think tank team behind the scenes, including the physicists, couldn't help but frown.

The so-called fine structure constant (α) was proposed by German physicist Arnold Sommerfeld when he introduced quantum physics in 1916.

At that time, when the German physicist Sommerfeld was analyzing the "fine structure" of the hydrogen atom spectrum, in order to simplify the calculations, he merged several physical constants that were always combined in the same form, namely the basic charge, Planck's constant and the speed of light, and then formed the fine structure constant.

In physics, these three constants represent electromagnetic interactions, quantum theory, and relativity respectively.

Therefore, since its birth, it has become an extremely important constant in physics and even in the universe, and like an emperor, it controls and commands all changes in the universe from gravity to quantum particle reactions. The most subtle reactions rely on its influence, and even the most niche subjects contain its shadow.

Its most unique feature is that this constant is universal among all intelligent civilizations in this universe because it is dimensionless.

Dimension, in simple terms, is a unit of measurement.

The seven basic physical quantities defined today are the seven "dimensions", which are:
length, mass, temperature, current, time, amount of matter, and intensity of light,
It is the foundation of human civilization and the tool left behind by mankind to climb the peak of physics. All human sciences are born on this basis.

But the problem is that these are tools unique to human civilization. They are measurements defined by humans, and among other alien civilizations, their definitions of the seven dimensions may not be the same.

But the fine structure constant is different, because it does not require a unified cosmic measurement system or any unit of measurement, because as long as it involves or exceeds the stage of geophysics, no matter which civilization, no matter how different the dimensions are, it can easily calculate this dimensionless constant.
In general, this constant is very likely one of the cosmic constants recognized by all intelligent civilizations in the basic rules of this universe.

The ambassador of the ancient Eastern country mentioned this constant when discussing this disaster... What does it mean?

"So...is there any problem with this constant?"

Inov asked with confusion on his face.

"This is a big problem." Ambassador Zhang said slowly at this moment, "Because we have observed that the [fine structure constant]... is jumping."

"Oh my god, what kind of joke is this Oriental guy playing at?!"

"Are you kidding us?"

"This is impossible. If this constant jumped, our human civilization would have disappeared in an imperceptible moment. There would be no such thing as 'observing'!"

As soon as Ambassador Zhang finished speaking, a deafening burst of microphone noise came from the listening devices hidden in the ears of several foreign ambassadors.

Obviously, the think tank behind them was very upset after hearing this word.

Brothers who often create the world should all know that the universe was born from a singularity, and in an indescribable moment, it expanded at the speed of light into today's universe.

But has anyone ever thought about this question:
Is it inevitable that the universe expanded to what it is today?
In other words, will the singularity explode 100% into an environment suitable for the survival of carbon-based creatures such as humans or silicon-based creatures that exist in some corner of the universe?

Obviously not.

In this universe that is suitable for the survival of carbon-based and silicon-based life, its birth is very accidental, and its requirements for physical quantities such as density, temperature, pressure, space-time curvature, quantum fluctuations, and parity violation have reached a very demanding level.

It is precisely under these extremely demanding numbers that a universe with a macroscopic dimension of three, a gravitational constant of 1.67 times 10 to the negative 11th power, a speed of light in a vacuum of 300,000 kilometers per second, an electron charge of 1.602 times 10 to the negative 19th power Coulomb, and Planck's constant of 6.626... is born, which can meet a series of conditions suitable for the survival of human beings and all intelligent life in the entire existing universe.

These extremely demanding and precise numbers form a calculated fine structure constant, which is an extremely special value of this universe, 1/137. In other words, if this universe has a number, it should be Universe 137.

The fine structure constant represents the wisdom and civilization of mankind and even the physics, science, and even the foundation of the entire universe. If there is a problem with this number...

"Let me interrupt for a moment."

Aaron from Western Europe raised his hand at this moment, looked at Ambassador Zhang, and spoke word by word.

As the origin of science in the past, the West has a very deep understanding of this thing that was researched by its ancestors.

"Do scientists in your country know the meaning of the fine structure constant?"

"Of course I know that. There is no doubt about it." Ambassador Zhang's tone was absolutely certain.

"Then do you know the meaning of jump?"

"inevitable."

"In that case." Aaron's tone became stern at this moment. "Then can these two words be put together?!"

"We also find it incredible, but this is the fact."

Ambassador Zhang was silent for a moment, and said in a serious tone:
"After learning this result, in order to verify this absurd conclusion we had obtained, our country invested a huge amount of money to measure the fine structure constant again and again in hundreds of top scientific laboratories across the country, and also used the most advanced heterogeneous supercomputers to ensure the accuracy of the results."

"But after measuring again and again, we finally came to the conclusion that the fine structure constant of this universe is jumping for reasons we cannot understand, and the direction of its jump is exactly zero."

"That is to say, our universe, which is about 137.7 billion years old, has an observable diameter of about 930 billion light years, carries countless stars, and has nurtured countless civilizations, is... returning to zero." (End of this chapter)
