"As we all know, the Earth is not a solid, diamond-like object. Forces can cause it to change shape. This is why rotation makes the Earth an oblate spheroid, not a perfect circle. Now, the sun will deliver an even more terrifying instantaneous thrust. The Earth will be compressed and deformed like a squeezed ball in a short time, and then recover. This process will evolve into a super earthquake that the Earth has never experienced since its birth, destroying all underground cities. Even if the Earth is not destroyed, humanity will be destroyed."
Propelling a planet is a far more complex undertaking than assembling an escape fleet.
This project is not simply about giving a planet a huge boost so that it can speed out of the solar system like a dog in heat.
First, planets are not 'hard' enough. Molecular matter is too 'soft' on a celestial scale. Planets maintain their structure through gravity, so on a celestial scale, planets are more like a ball with poor elasticity than a hard, spherical rock.
Although they are hard, they will still flatten under enough external force, which is why planetary rotation causes planets to become ellipsoids.
The most troublesome problem with moving a planet is not the enormous amount of energy required, but the fact that the planet being moved is inhabited. If the planet sneezes, widespread earthquakes will occur, not to mention the significant deformation of the planet's strata, making it uninhabitable both above and below ground, with magma flowing everywhere.
For this reason, the acceleration that propels a planet must not be too high, let alone rely on the explosion of the sun to propel the Earth; that's not the way to rush to be reborn.
Chapter 285 Is this so hard to understand?
There are only two ways to escape the solar system by using a solar explosion, but both have been rejected. This has led many people in the human society of the solar system to begin to question the feasibility of Lin Feng's proposed solar ascension plan.
Lin Feng sighed softly and said, "...I can only say that many people really lack imagination. If possible, I suggest they buy some walnuts, as they are good for the brain."
Then, Lin Feng began to explain, "This Sun Ascension Plan actually needs to be combined with the microscopic aspects of the non-existent plan that I proposed before in order to see its effects. I thought you would think more about it, but since you don't understand, I'll explain it to you clearly."
Lin Feng paused for a moment, then continued, "The more microscopic something is, the more durable it is. This is a very simple and easy-to-understand principle. Based on this principle, it would be fine even if it directly withstood an explosion of the sun."
"Of course, with current technology, the energy of a solar explosion is indeed still very high, but it's not a big problem. We can solve this problem through the structure of matter," Lin Feng added.
Reporters from various media outlets exchanged bewildered glances. They understood Lin Feng's explanation: the Sun Ascension Project was closely related to the microscopic aspects of the research on the non-existent direction.
But they couldn't imagine how to actually do it, how to utilize the energy of the sun's explosion after it was microscopic.
"...Could you explain it in simpler terms?" someone suggested.
Lin Feng said, "Is this hard to understand? Don't always think about creating some colossal creatures or wonders. That's unrealistic. Create a body the size of an atomic nucleus, then hide behind a space pebble. When the sun explodes, the stellar matter will first come into contact with the pebble, giving it kinetic energy. You will also be given kinetic energy along with it. When the pebble is completely plasmaized, your speed will be about the same as that of the high-speed stellar matter. As long as you don't come into contact with those high-energy particles, the heat radiation transfer efficiency is extremely low, so you can safely escape to the depths of the universe."
Is that so hard to understand?
Lin Feng spread his hands. After being miniaturized, humans would only consume electricity and would no longer need oxygen to breathe, just like electronic humans. Therefore, unnecessary mass could be reduced to the greatest extent possible.
In Lin Feng's plan, humanity will take a microscopic approach, riding the material storms from the sun's explosion, and travel at near the speed of light into the vast universe.
After Lin Feng's explanation, the reporters finally understood how the Sun Ascension Project would utilize the energy of a solar explosion.
By miniaturizing the material and enhancing its resistance to external forces, it can withstand the explosion of the sun and escape the solar system.
It's crazy, so crazy that even the reporters never imagined something like this.
Some people thought that Lin Feng's plan to use the sun's explosion would inevitably involve adding a barrier, which led to the later theories of the spaceship faction and the planetary faction. However, no one ever thought that a small stone, gravel, or pottery shard could serve as a barrier, so they couldn't guess the specific steps of Lin Feng's plan to ascend to the heavens.
If you're going in the wrong direction, the more you think about it, the more wrong you'll become.
Among the many reporters, one person noticed a problem and raised his hand to ask a question.
"In that case, why bother detonating the sun? We could actually use a particle accelerator to escape into space, which would be safer than using the sun to explode."
If humanity could be miniaturized to the level of the atomic nucleus, there would be no need to detonate the sun. Existing particle accelerators, combined with a nuclear fusion reactor, would allow for a mass exodus from the solar system into the universe.
Lin Feng replied regretfully, "That's true, but current micro-scale technology hasn't reached the level of the atomic nucleus yet; it's only at the nanometer level. If everyone were to be nano-sized and accelerated to near the speed of light, the energy required would be astronomical."
"Collecting such a massive amount of energy means that a long period of accumulation is required, and humanity cannot afford to wait. Detonating the sun is the fastest way to accelerate this process."
Detonating the sun to accelerate the process was the result of a variety of considerations.
Accelerating so many nanohumans to near the speed of light is simply not enough. Furthermore, we must consider issues such as deceleration and protection. Approaching the speed of light means facing extremely high-energy rays, which means that the mass would need to increase further.
If microscopy can reach the atomic nucleus level, then there is naturally no need to worry about high-energy radiation, because the atomic nucleus has very high strength and a density similar to that of a water droplet. However, this is not possible at the nanoscale.
Therefore, additional quality needs to be added for protection.
Lin Feng continued, "Furthermore, the debris nebula formed by the solar explosion would be a good cover. No one knows what level of observation precision the hunters can achieve. In the vast universe, no one can guarantee that they will not discover the fleeing nano-humans."
"The last point is to solve the problem of the order in which humans leave the solar system. I can guarantee 100% that even if everyone can escape the solar system, there will inevitably be some people who complain about being abandoned because they were arranged to leave the solar system later than others, and they may even do irrational things that harm others and themselves."
When Lin Feng mentioned this last point, the reporters felt a chill run down their spines.
Indeed, as Lin Feng said, people's joys and sorrows are not shared. With the Black Forest attack coming at any time, those who start to flee later will only resent those who started to flee first.
Those who fled last, if they could, none of them would want to be saints; true saints are few and far between.
……
After the press conference ended, Lin Feng didn't go to rest, but instead went to find Liang Gong.
Lin Feng contacted Liang Gong directly via communicator.
"Suzumiya, can you do me a favor?"
"What is it?" Suzumiya asked.
The girl's face lacked its usual liveliness. With both the Trisolaran and human worlds facing setbacks, it was difficult for her to be happy at this time.
"I want to have a dialogue with the high-level officials of the Trisolaran civilization," Lin Feng said.
Liang Gong said, "You can tell me, and I'll pass it on to them directly."
Lin Feng nodded and asked directly, "There must be many Trisolarans left behind on the Trisolaran homeworld in the Trisolaran world, right? If so, I want to save them."
Suzumiya was taken aback, a look of surprise flashing across her face.
"Random passerby, how did you know...?"
Lin Feng smiled and said, "I knew it from the conversation between the new Swordholder of Earth and the Trisolaran world. It's not hard to guess. Please pass it on."
Liang Gong looked at Lin Feng with a complicated expression, hesitated for a moment, and then reminded him, "...I'm not sure if they will give you a reply."
The situation in the Trisolaran world is also complicated. If the Trisolaran civilization can completely evacuate the Trisolaran star system, it will naturally ignore Ling Moli's threats.
Lin Feng had somewhat guessed that the Trisolaran civilization might not be able to relocate its entire population. After comparing the original work, he guessed that some of them would be left on their home planet, and now it seems he was right.
"I don't necessarily need a result, I'm just asking," Lin Feng said with a smile.
Chapter 286 is most likely part of his plan.
The Trisolaran civilization began planning to escape the Trisolaran system a long time ago.
Initially, it was because the Three-Body Problem was unsolvable and the irregular movement of the three stars led the Trisolaran civilization to destruction time and time again. In order for their civilization to continue, they had to abandon their homeland and go to a star system with an eternal lifespan.
Naturally, the Trisolaran civilization turned its attention to the neighboring solar system, a star system composed of a single yellow dwarf star, where there was an eternal era, four gas planets and four solid planets.
In the eyes of the Trisolaran civilization, the solar system is equivalent to the Peach Blossom Spring described by Tao Yuanming, the utopia described by Thomas More, and the Garden of Eden recorded in the Bible, a place that gathers all that is beautiful and has a future.
Although the Trisolaran civilization suppressed emotional thinking for survival, this did not mean they completely eliminated such emotions. The yearning for a better life is something that humans possess, and the Trisolarans also have it.
It was against this backdrop that the Three-Body First Fleet was announced for formation.
Later, through contact between humanity and the Trisolaran civilization, the Trisolaran civilization learned about Earth, about the existence of a habitable planet in the solar system rich in liquid water, and about the speed of technological progress in human civilization.
A strange civilization whose history is synonymous with war has taken over a world that is as rich and beautiful as paradise, and is expected to completely surpass the Trisolaran civilization in a few hundred years.
Even if the Trisolaran civilization does not take the initiative to make contact, the other side will inevitably discover the Trisolaran civilization. According to the intelligence we have, when the other side takes the initiative to make contact with the Trisolaran civilization, the Trisolarans will most likely face genocide.
The immense sense of existential crisis forced the entire Trisolaran civilization, from top to bottom, to lose its inherent rationality.
Or rather, this is a rational choice made under the mindset of survival.
Without having gathered a sufficient amount of antimatter fuel, the Trisolaran First Fleet hastily set sail for the solar system after conducting simple antimatter collection and modification.
The fleet will collect antiparticles along the way to propel the ships to accelerate.
Following this, due to the Trisolaran civilization's acts of war against human civilization and the destruction of the Eye of the Demon civilization in the Sophon Project, it wasn't long before the Trisolaran civilization grasped the Dark Forest Theory, understood the universality of civilization destruction in this universe, and gained a deeper understanding of the irreconcilable fundamental contradiction between them and humanity.
The Trisolaran civilization's determination to destroy humanity and seize the solar system reached its peak during this period.
However, starting with a human named Feng Taylor in the solar system who arranged for a special colony ship to be sent to a red dwarf star system about six light-years away from the solar system, the Trisolaran civilization gradually changed its attitude towards the solar system and also towards humanity.
The Trisolaran civilization gradually shifted from 'invasion' to 'escape'; they no longer wanted the solar system and also wanted to exterminate human civilization.
Human colony ships occupy new star systems. Without quantum entanglement communication technology, the only way for humans to contact the solar system is to use the reflective surface of stars to transmit radio signals at stellar power.
The Trisolaran civilization, which is familiar with the Dark Forest Theory, naturally understands very well what it means to speak loudly and continuously in a quiet forest.
What's even more critical is that humanity knows nothing about this, so the idea that 'survival is the first necessity of civilization' is invalid. It has nothing to do with the fear of death or extinction, but simply with pure ignorance.
Because of ignorance, it is inevitable.
Human civilization's colonization activities would inevitably lead the hunters to check the star systems near the solar system to confirm whether there are other human colonies, so the exposure of the Trisolaran civilization is almost 100%.
From the time Davis colonized the Barnard system until Lin Feng actively demanded quantum entanglement communication technology from the Trisolaran world, the Trisolaran civilization was basically immersed in extreme anxiety and panic, planning a large-scale escape to other star systems.
When the multi-deterrence system was established, the Trisolaran world belatedly realized the terror of the human named 'Maple Taylor'. Using the Dark Forest Theory, they laid out a plan for two centuries, shaping inevitability with ignorance and allowing time to ferment fear. Once the human world's deterrence system is built, the construction of the multi-deterrence system will also be inevitable.
Maple Taylor is terrifying.
Therefore, after Haruhi conveyed the message to the decision-making level of the Trisolaran civilization, the decision-making level's attitude was naturally—what are you, this madman, up to now?
"1314, how credible is the message delivered by Feng Taylor?" a consul asked.
By this time, the Trisolaran decision-making body had already left the Trisolaran system. A little over a month after the gravitational wave broadcast, the Trisolaran civilization transferred all its evacuable population to light-speed warp drive spaceships and began its interstellar escape without hesitation.
The rational choice here is that the Black Forest strike could come at any time, and the faster the Trisolaran Second Fleet acts, the greater the probability of survival.
All the sophons have been withdrawn to scout ahead for the Trisolaran Second Fleet's light-speed warp drive, leaving only a few sophons to gather information about the human world.
At this point, interfering with human scientific research is not very meaningful, because the Hessian attack is inevitable, and if humanity remains in its own star system, it will almost certainly perish.
"It depends on how much you believe him; I, for one, completely believe him," Suzumiya replied expressionlessly.
The military governor said with dissatisfaction, "1314, I need to remind you that although you have the right to directly contact the decision-making level and convey information, this does not mean that the decision-making level will unconditionally trust you."
The Trisolaran world didn't actually send Haruhi Suzumiya into the human world for the sake of harmonious coexistence between humans and Trisolarans. Haruhi's situation is somewhat similar to Yun Tianming's; she is a spy planted by the Trisolaran civilization in the human world to gather intelligence.
More accurately, it was a nail used to probe Lin Feng's intentions. There was a bit of imitation involved here. In order to explore the Trisolarans, humans sent Yun Tianming's brain to the Trisolaran First Fleet, while the Trisolaran world sent Liang Gong to Lin Feng's side in order to explore Lin Feng's thoughts.
This is why Haruhi Suzumiya has the right to contact the decision-making level and directly convey information, and she also has a special sophon for communication.
Unfazed, Ryougo retorted, "As an intelligence source placed in the human world by the Trisolaran civilization, providing accurate intelligence and submitting my own analysis of that intelligence is within my authority. I am simply fulfilling my duties."
The officials began to express their opinions on the matter.
The Science Administrator said, "Feng Taylor is not trustworthy. He has been planning for two centuries. The multi-deterrence system and the coordinates recently broadcast by gravitational waves are very likely part of his plan."
"His proposal to save the remaining Trisolarans is most likely part of his plan."
