Voyage of the Stars.

Chapter 1261 A galaxy without a central black hole?
Over the years, the route of the Great Voyage Organization seems to have really deviated from the route of the pioneers. They have been traveling and searching all the way, but still have not found any news about the pioneers.

But the Great Voyage Organization is not an organization that only relies on pioneers for navigation. After so many years, the organization has a lot of experience in long-distance navigation. They know what distances should be laid out in advance, what kind of gravitational reactions may lead to the existence of dark matter islands, and what situations should be avoided. These are all experiences.

Even if the Great Voyage Organization cannot find the star map left by the pioneers now, they can continue to move forward on their own and leave something for those who come after them. Perhaps this is a kind of Great Voyage inheritance, and it is one of the wishes of the pioneers back then.

After so many years, the Great Voyage Organization no longer worried about it. If they couldn't find it, they would just plan a route according to their own detection data and continue on their way, as long as the general direction was the Bootes Void.

Walking and stopping, stumbling.

The Great Voyage Organization has arrived at a completely new galaxy.

"This model is wrong! What about the gravitational reaction parameters of the central celestial body? Who is on duty in the astronomy department now? How could such a mistake be made?"

"Commander Yue, it's Wen Kun on duty."

"Ask him to explain."

"Access the communication immediately!"

The new galaxy is already within reach, but as observation data is updated, human civilization suddenly discovers that this new galaxy seems a little strange.

In its model composition, there are no gravitational parameters of the central black hole, and it looks like a galaxy without a central black hole.

But this is obviously impossible, at least the naturally evolving galaxy will not be without a central celestial body. Because angular momentum is conserved, the result of celestial body evolution must be orbiting each other, with small mass celestial bodies orbiting large mass celestial bodies. This is an inevitable result under the law of cosmic gravity.

However, this picture told Yue Yuan that this galaxy had no central black hole, and a group of stars just looked like bright lights, floating motionlessly in the void.

Isn't this the intuitive impression of intelligent life when looking up at the starry sky? That is to say, the stars are eternal and do not move.

This is of course wrong. All the stars in the Milky Way are orbiting the black hole at the center of the galaxy. No star is truly stationary.

Therefore, this updated star map must be wrong.

But it is clear that when the Great Voyage Organization had not yet approached, this model was still good and correct, and the central black hole star was still there. How come here, astronomers suddenly updated such a star map.

"General Yue! There is indeed something wrong with the star map, but it is not our fault. The latest detection data shows that the stars are stationary, and the previous motion model is the result of erroneous detection."

Wen Kun's virtual image appeared in the Tianqin's command center. As soon as he appeared, he began to explain the abnormality of the star map. It was obvious that he himself knew what Yue Yuan was wondering about.

"Are you sure?" Yue Yuan turned his head and raised his eyebrows to look at Wen Kun's virtual image.

"Sure, General Yue, look, these are the results of our calculations and the process of building a model of this galaxy based on the data. And this is the observation data from our detectors and super optical telescope arrays, as well as data from infrared detection, radio telescope arrays, and gravitational detection modules," Wen Kun answered calmly.

As he spoke, the holographic screen changed with his words. The people on the Tianqin also looked at the big screen to see what was going on.

Obviously, this galaxy was normal during previous observations, but when the Great Voyage Organization was about to enter the galaxy, the observation data suddenly changed.

Could it be haunted?

There is no such thing in interstellar space, but what is going on?

"This"

"How could this be?"

"Is this detection data really correct?"

"It can't be wrong. Even if the detector is wrong, it's impossible for all the detectors to be wrong!"

"This is unscientific. What the hell is going on? Could it be that the laws of physics have changed? Have we moved to an area with different laws of physics?"

"Well, it seems possible. Perhaps the laws of optical physics have changed."

"What do you mean by changes in the laws of optical physics? We are already a level 6 civilization. Can you guys have some common sense of physics? If the laws of optical physics are really changed, can we still stand here safely? That would definitely be a whole-body thing. If the laws of optical physics change, then all the laws related to light will have to change. If that happens, we won't even be able to capture photons."

"That may not be the case. Have you forgotten about quantum entanglement and long-distance communication? Some civilizations can indeed change only one physical law. In other words, the universe is not fragile. It is just riddled with holes. Its framework is not so fragile that a single blow can affect the entire body. On the contrary, it may be that the more laws you modify, the more difficult it will be."

"This"

"Okay, stop guessing. We have to believe in science. Now the real data is in front of us. Even if it is ridiculous, we have to believe it is true. Haven't we seen enough counterintuitive things along the way?"

This is true. Human civilization has traveled a straight-line journey of 100 million light years. We have seen many so-called bizarre things in the universe, including some counter-intuitive things, but they were all ultimately proven to be scientific and correct.

In other words, the counter-intuitive fact that this galaxy has no central black hole support is actually correct, but humans have not yet found a theory to explain it.

With this thought, most people present felt relieved. Some even began to daydream, wondering what kind of cosmic view the civilization living in this galaxy had.

If the civilization born in this galaxy had not left the galaxy, it would probably think that the structure of the distant galaxy was the same as this galaxy. Yes, it must be so, just like we thought that other galaxies have central black holes, but now we encounter a galaxy without a central black hole.

But Wen Kun, an astronomer, is not so optimistic. He feels that there are too many contradictions. For example, if this galaxy really has no central black hole as the data observed now shows, and all the stars are still in the void, then doesn't that mean there is no gravitational attraction between them?
Only this can explain it. Otherwise, the stars will inevitably be pulled together by each other's gravity, and then under the law of conservation of angular momentum, they will become a system that orbits each other. This is real physics.

Because the star map of the Milky Way given by current astronomical observations is only a rough structural diagram, however, when the camera is zoomed into the interior of each star system, the data supporting the "centerless black hole" framework conflicts with the structural model within the star system.
