Chapter 533 I've Confirmed Your Location

However, Ning Chen and Song Xiyun did not give up their research on these electromagnetic wave signals. After continuous comparison and investigation, they finally found some electromagnetic wave signals that were most likely to come from that alien civilization among the countless electromagnetic wave signals.

Unfortunately, after determining the launch date of these electromagnetic wave signals, Ning Chen and Song Xiyun had to temporarily stop this work.

"Song Xiyun, now we have basically confirmed that these electromagnetic wave signals were all emitted by this alien civilization in the same batch. In this way, although we can determine the approximate location of this alien civilization, we still cannot determine the distance between us."

Because in order to determine a specific location, at least two straight lines that are neither overlapping nor parallel are needed to get the intersection. If there is only one straight line, the number of targets that may overlap will be very large.

At this time, Song Xiyun seemed to suddenly realize something and said to Ning Chen:
"Ning Chen, we can actually roughly determine the distance between this alien civilization and us. Since they can relatively frequently contact the Blue Star people in this evil organization, it basically means that they are within ten light years or even closer to us. In this way, even if it is just the same batch of electromagnetic waves, we can completely narrow the range of the target, or even directly find the galaxy and mother star where the target is located."

"Song Xiyun, I've actually thought of this before, but we can't confirm that they are really only a few light years away from us. This is just our inference. Unless we really can't find another wave of electromagnetic wave signals about this alien civilization, we still have to determine the location of this alien civilization as accurately as possible..."

As Ning Chen was talking, he stopped and started thinking. Song Xiyun knew that Ning Chen must have thought of something, so she did not disturb him. She just looked at him quietly, expecting Ning Chen to come up with some new ideas.

After more than ten seconds, Ning Chen came out of this state of highly concentrated thinking and said to Song Xiyun excitedly:

"Song Xiyun, let's start from the beginning and sort out the process of this alien civilization's contact with the Blue Planet. At the beginning, this alien civilization tried to send some signals to the outside world, and these signals happened to be received by some people on the Blue Planet. Of course, these signals were not sent directly to the Blue Planet, and their actual landing point was closer to Mars... Is everything all right?"

"Yes, Ning Chen, your inferences are all very reasonable. Of course, electromagnetic waves are not always as collimated as lasers. Even if the electromagnetic waves are emitted to Mars, it is normal for them to be received by the blue planet."

"Okay, let's continue the analysis. After these Blue Star people received these abnormal electromagnetic wave signals, they realized that these were not ordinary cosmic signals, but signals that had been carefully edited by an intelligent civilization. So they sent a reply to this alien civilization in the same way, even though they did not know the specific location of this alien civilization, they just sent a reply in this direction..."

Listening to Ning Chen's analysis, Song Xiyun began to realize something and said to Ning Chen excitedly:
"Ning Chen, do you mean that we should not use Mars as the main search location, but instead shift the search target to the Blue Planet?"

"Yes, that's what I think. If this alien civilization successfully receives the reply from these blue star people, then they will definitely contact them again. Based on the frequency of communication of these information, we can determine the actual distance between the two sides. Of course, there are still many details that we have not yet determined, but this does not affect our work first..."

In fact, at this time, Ning Chen still had doubts about many of the issues, such as how these blue star people managed to transmit electromagnetic wave signals over a distance of several light years, which required a very huge electromagnetic wave transmission power; and why this alien civilization would actively send signals to the outside world, whether they had considered the risk of their civilization being exposed, and so on.

But Ning Chen believed that once he determined the specific location of this alien civilization, these questions would be answered one by one.

…………

After that, Ning Chen and Song Xiyun shifted their search target to the vicinity of Blue Star, looking for information about possible contact between the Blue Star people and alien civilizations.

They had foreseen the difficulty of this work long before they started it, but only after they actually started it did they realize how difficult it was.

Because there are so many electromagnetic wave signals on the blue planet, trying to filter out electromagnetic wave signals related to alien civilizations from these complex electromagnetic wave signals is as difficult as looking for a lost ring in the ocean.

No matter how carefully Ning Chen and Song Xiyun searched, they could never find the signals they wanted.

This made Ning Chen stop and reflect on where the problem occurred.

"Since even the Blue Star people can search for these signals, it stands to reason that we can also search for them. Could it be that because of the long time that has passed, the intensity of these electromagnetic wave signals has become so weak that they cannot be detected at all?"

"Ning Chen, this is indeed possible. These signals have traveled at least several light years, and they must have been constantly attenuated during this process. If it doesn't work, we still need to further narrow the range of these electromagnetic wave signals to increase our search success rate."

"But the electromagnetic wave signals sent by that evil organization to the alien civilization must be very powerful. If they communicate with each other frequently, we will not be unable to detect any clues..."

At this moment, Ning Chen's eyes suddenly changed, and it could be seen that Ning Chen suddenly thought of something.

"Hey, how could I have forgotten this? After my evil organization successfully contacted the alien civilization, they have adopted a communication method called quantum communication. So in fact, over the years, they don't need to use electromagnetic waves to communicate at all."

"I see, Ning Chen. After hearing what you said, I also realized this. So, the reason why we have not been able to detect these electromagnetic wave signals on the Blue Star is not because there is something wrong with our detection, but because there are no electromagnetic wave signals for us to detect now?"

"It's probably for this reason that the evil organization communicated with alien civilizations through electromagnetic wave signals many years ago. These electromagnetic wave signals have long been drowned out by the complex electromagnetic wave signals on the blue planet and are difficult to search for. But I always feel that there should be some breakthrough in this matter..." Whether it was a coincidence or a destiny, Ning Chen received an important message from Lu Minghao within a few minutes.

"Boss Ning, we just got an important piece of information from a member of the 'God's Believers' organization. He explained how this organization communicated with the 'God', that is, the intelligent creatures of the alien civilization. I think this information may be very important, so I will report it to you immediately..."

Listening to Lu Minghao's story, Ning Chen quickly realized that this information was indeed very valuable and was the information he needed most right now.

In fact, the interrogation of these organization members has been ongoing until now, but even Ning Chen had not thought that they would be able to gain such significant results after such a long time.

It turns out that the number one person in this organization had previously done work related to electromagnetic wave signals and reception.

By chance, he received a very unusual electromagnetic wave signal. After careful analysis, he successfully deciphered the information contained in this electromagnetic wave signal and determined that it was most likely a signal from an alien civilization.

After careful consideration, he decided to send his reply in this direction. Even though this reply might not be really received by this alien civilization, he had to give it a bold try.

As time passed, he gradually forgot about this matter, as if these signals had never really appeared. But ten years later, he received the electromagnetic wave signal from this alien civilization again, which made him convinced that this alien civilization did exist and that he had really completed the communication process with them.

"Boss Ning, based on this information, we can basically confirm that this alien civilization is only about five light years away from us. After several contacts, they successfully created quantum communication equipment and dismantled the signal tower, completely erasing all related traces..."

Listening to Lu Minghao's words, Ning Chen thought quickly in his brain. This was indeed completely consistent with the information they could get at present.

The evil organization was able to almost completely erase this information before, and even Ning Chen did not know the relevant information. Fortunately, Lu Minghao finally helped Ning Chen find out the relevant clues.

"Manager Lu, thank you for this information. It is indeed very important for us to understand this alien civilization. Now we will immediately conduct a detailed search of the location where the signal tower once existed, and strive to find traces of their communication with the alien civilization!"

After the search range is reduced, even if these electromagnetic wave signals have attenuated to a very weak level, there is still a certain possibility of finding them.

Because this can allow Ning Chen to further improve the intensity of the search for these signals. Even signals that were previously negligible can now be searched for.

Afterwards, Ning Chen immediately organized the search personnel of Star Technology to conduct a very detailed search near the location where the signal tower once existed.

At the beginning, such searches still did not produce any obvious results. Although they did find a large number of electromagnetic wave signals that had existed in the vicinity, there were no electromagnetic wave signals related to alien civilizations.

It was not until Ning Chen improved the search method of electromagnetic wave signals many times that he finally found some important clues.

"Using this method, we can filter out the electromagnetic waves that appeared in a certain period of time, and then make a detailed assessment of these weak electromagnetic wave signals... If our analysis is correct, these electromagnetic wave signals are likely to be the electromagnetic wave signals used by the 'Believers of God' organization to communicate with this alien civilization..."

Whether it is the time of appearance of these electromagnetic wave signals, the power and frequency band of the electromagnetic waves, the direction of electromagnetic wave emission and other information, they all correspond well to the previous information, which basically proves that Ning Chen's inferences are correct.

Finally, after a lot of calculations, simulations and verifications, Ning Chen has completely confirmed the specific location of this alien civilization.

"Now we can basically confirm that this alien civilization is on a planet in this galaxy. Because they did not provide detailed information about their home planet like the members of the 'Believers of God' organization, we cannot be sure which planet they live on. However, if we can investigate the environment of these planets, we can still rule out some planets that do not meet the environmental requirements for the survival of organisms..."

In fact, the survival requirements of organisms on a planet are very high. Only when multiple factors such as the planet's mass, volume, density, atmosphere, and material distribution meet all the requirements at the same time, can the planet have the possibility of giving birth to life.

According to such strict requirements, most planets in the universe do not meet these conditions. Planets like Blue Star, which have extremely suitable conditions, are one in a million.

After analyzing all the planets in this galaxy, Ning Chen has selected the only planet that meets the requirements.

"If there is a planet in this galaxy that can give birth to life, then it can only be this planet. The other planets have their fatal weaknesses, which cannot guarantee the birth and survival of life at all. As for the satellites in this galaxy, they are even less able to meet such conditions..." Ning Chen said.

It is rare for Ning Chen to use the elimination method to analyze a problem. However, for a multiple-choice question, this elimination method is enough to screen out the correct answer.
