Chapter 572 Cosmic Colonization
After launching 15 Xiongfeng 59s and 4 Xiongfeng 58s, Lynch wrote a briefing report to the Supreme Command to report the relevant situation as a record of this operation.

In the future, the Fifth Army will continue to use the Nanhe II wormhole as the core, while stationing the Proxima Galaxy, Nanhe II a, and b galaxies, while expanding and exploring around the Universiade.

Currently, within ten light-years around the solar system, the Human Revolutionary Alliance controls the parent galaxy, the solar system, and the first colonized galaxy, the Procyon galaxy (including Procyon ab and Proxima Centauri).

Within a radius of 10 light-years around the solar system, there are a total of ten stars in seven star systems, and their distances from the solar system from near to far are as follows:
Procyon (three stars in Centaurus a), 4.22 light-years away from the solar system; Barnard's star, 5.96 light-years away from the solar system; Wolf 359, 7.8 light-years away; Lalande 21185, 8.3 light-years away; Cetus UV star, 8.4 light-years away; Sirius, binary star system, including Sirius A and Sirius B, 8.6 light-years away; ROSD 154 stars, 9.5 light-years away.

The next goal of the Alliance is the Barnard Galaxy. The most attractive thing about Barnard's Star is that there are two planets about the size of Jupiter and Saturn orbiting this star, which is very close to us. The star system, second only to Procyon.

He thought that the current alliance's 30 times the speed of light spacecraft, flying at full speed, only needs 72.5 blue star days to reach the Barnard galaxy.

In addition, Barnard's star has several distinctive features, so it has become a star of considerable attention to astronomers.Barnard's Star is the fastest self-moving star of all known stars, so it is sometimes called Barnard's "Runaway Star". times.

Ordinary stars usually have a self-propelled speed of less than 1 arcsecond per year. Arcturus Boötes has a relatively obvious self-motion, but it is less than 2 arcseconds per year, while Barnard's Star has a self-propelled motion of up to 10.31 arcseconds per year. .

In fact, the Alliance Space Exploration Department has already launched probes to the galaxies around the solar system. At present, 8 star systems including Tianyuan [-] are within the monitoring range of the Alliance.

If it weren't for the limited distance of quantum teleportation technology, the alliance would have developed these star systems on a large scale.

Although the quantum teleportation technology obtained from the Dark Beast Civilization has been improved by alliance researchers, the teleportation distance has now been increased to 6.4 light years, but the quantum teleportation system seems to have reached a bottleneck period, and no new progress has been seen for a long time.

The missile curvature engine used by the detector, under the condition of sacrificing a large part of the payload, the speed of the detector is 90 times the speed of light.

At the end of January this year, the Department of Space Exploration sent the probe to the Barnard galaxy, but there was no quantum teleporter on it at that time, and recently re-launched a probe to carry the quantum teleporter there.

In fact, Barnard's galaxy is closer to the solar system than imagined, because the border of the solar system is roughly calculated based on the radius of 1.5 light-years from the sun. The alliance has planetary fortresses on the border, and the border of the Barnard galaxy Also about 1 light-year away.

Calculated in this way, it is equivalent to that the border distance between the two sides is about 3.46 light-years.

Barnard's Galaxy - Barnard's Star B, a Jupiter-like planet, has a radius of about 0.71 times that of Jupiter, a mass of about 0.54 times that of Jupiter, and has 24 large natural satellites.

At this time, on the third largest satellite of Barnard's Star B, a base with a huge area has been built here, and the establishment of this base is benefited from the proton micro-robots and the ring-shaped tree seeds.

The quantum teleportation machine was also laid. After a slight flicker, ten soldiers appeared in the teleportation cabin of the quantum teleportation machine. Although the Space Exploration Department did not have the command right of the alliance army, they could second the alliance army soldiers.

After ten soldiers left the teleportation cabin, they immediately took over the entire base. After confirming that there were no problems around, soldiers, scientific researchers, and staff arrived one after another through the quantum teleporter.

As a standard alliance colonial base, it is equipped with at least 500 soldiers, as well as a number of scientific research personnel and staff.

Yoshiken Yamazaki, the head of the base, immediately took over the work.

"Monitoring team, release protons immediately."

"receive."

Countless protons were thrown to the entire Barnard Galaxy. With these protons, the base can control the disturbances in the Barnard Galaxy.

"Radar team, is your dark subwave radar assembled yet?" Yamazaki Yoshiken asked while picking up the communicator.

"Report, it will take about two hours to complete the assembly." The radar team leader replied immediately.

"Okay." Yamazaki Saixian dialed the number of the head of the energy group again: "Energy group, where is the installation progress of the Jinwu reactor?"

"The No. 1 and No. 2 reactors have been completed now, and the remaining four reactors will be completed within 5 hours."

Whether it is dark wave radar, condensed matter shield, nuclear fusion reactor, etc., since protons cannot be manufactured as a whole, the base personnel must complete the construction as soon as they move in.

The proton and dark wave radar is the eyes, the nuclear fusion reactor is the heart, the condensed matter shield is the protection, and then there are life, armaments, factories and so on.

This is a microcosm of the human innovation alliance in the cosmic colony. Of course, not all star systems will be developed and utilized. The Space Exploration Department sorts out the astronomical conditions and resource abundance of the star systems, and then submits them to the Space Planning and Development Department. Research.

All star systems will be differentiated and developed according to different situations.

For example, the Binanhe II galaxy is not only rich in resources (with three stars), but also has a natural wormhole, which is the strategic route for the alliance to enter the Andromeda cantilever in the future, and its importance is no less than that of the solar system.

As for the Barnard Galaxy, the resources are not bad, and the location is so-so. It can be used as an immigrant galaxy in the early stage, because Barnard Star is a red dwarf star, and its nuclear fusion reaction is small and long, with a lifespan of at least hundreds of billions of years.

the other side.

Ma Wu's explorer 61 has received a new mission to go to the Virgo [-] galaxy to check the situation of the triangle civilization.

Proxima Centauri — a new rocky star base on Jupiter.

Lynch, Ma Wu, and Hathaway, who was brought over from Venus in the solar system, were talking while walking.

"Colonel Ma, why did you leave in such a hurry?" Hathaway asked puzzled.

"Hehe! How can the steps of the universe man stay in one place? My dream is the stars and the ocean." Ma Wu replied with a smile. In fact, he was eager to leave right now in his heart. Feel what life feels like years.

The excitement of adventure made him unable to stop and appreciate the cosmic garden of the Proxima Galaxy. Even though the alliance granted him a three-month vacation, Ma Wu had no intention of staying.

In addition to rushing back to Blue Star for a week, he immediately returned to the New Rock Star Base. Only when he returned to the Explorer [-] that he had been dreaming about, could Ma Wu feel that he was a complete person.

"I won't say much more, Colonel Ma, take care all the way, the alliance will always be your strongest backing." Lynch patted Ma Wu on the shoulder and said.

"Take care both of you."

Ma Wu boarded the Explorer [-] without looking back, started the photon engine and headed towards the starting point of the jump.
