Chapter 597
Time flies quickly. Since the departure of the Tussian civilization, 20 years have passed again, and the sea trials of all large motherships are gradually coming to an end.
In a while, people will officially set off to bid farewell to this familiar Star Domain. Various resource reserves are continuously moving upwards through the space elevator, rare earth, nuclear fuel, organic matter warehouses, and conventional material warehouses. The arrangements are full.
In this case, both adults and children are looking forward to marching into the distance again, eager to come into contact with other interstellar civilizations.
In the last year of the Spring Festival, fireworks flickered, and bright little suns flickered above the planet. Human beings have been rich and imposing to the point where hydrogen bombs can be used to set off fireworks... and this kind of hydrogen bombs can show all kinds of weird colors, everyone is very happy.
The party before the departure is naturally very lively. The chorus, the singer's casino, and the sketch comedy are always unsatisfactory.
A party that is still full of meaning is a party with a taste!
Next, a grand voting ceremony appeared on the planet. In fact, there was no special major event. The main reason was to name the six new generation giant motherships.
For this matter, the people broke out with high enthusiasm for voting!
One of the Titan Grade giant motherships that can accommodate 50 million people is named "Departure", which is named at first and will not be changed. This name means that the new human civilization becomes a new journey after Level 4 civilization, and it also embodies people's beautiful expectations for the future.
So the people have the right to name the other 5 spaceships.
However, after the voting ended, a ridiculous thing happened. One of them named "Pippi Shrimp" actually got the highest turnout rate!
For the water spilled out, the relevant government officials could only pinch their noses and agreed. One of the interstellar aircraft carrier-class carriers was named-"Pippi Shrimp" .
But soon, more people began to complain about this damn name, because they felt that for most of their lives, they might live on this "Pippi Shrimp". It sounds too ugly! It's really ugly!
Some people even have moved to the spaceship. When they heard that their beloved home was named "Pippi Shrimp", they immediately exploded.
"The spaceship we live in, what matters to the rest of you! Why is our spaceship named Pipi Shrimp! We absolutely disagree, and firmly disagree!"
So they began to protest loudly again, voting to change their names... The number of people who changed their names jointly reached one million hours in a day!
This time "Voting Accident" was also regarded as a negative textbook, written in the newspaper, and its headline became-"Damn Democracy"!
In short, after a lot of twists and turns, all the names have been determined, namely the "departure number" interstellar Titan Grade spaceship......
and "Oriental" and "Renaissance" , "Divine Province", "Progress", "Future" and other 5 interstellar aircraft carrier-class spaceships!
These names sound quite serious, even a bit boring, but basically people can accept it, and there won't be too many objections.
"...Hello viewers, the Interstellar Titan Grade spaceship'Departure', which can accommodate a normal life of 50 million people, is the economic, scientific research, education, and industrial center of the entire civilization."
"The remaining interstellar carrier-class spaceships can hold a population of 20 million, have certain industrial capabilities and military battle strength. Now the total population of the new human civilization is insufficient, and each carrier-class spaceship only With more than ten million installed, there is still room for a certain degree of population growth."
"A population of ten million can maintain all aspects of the spaceship. In the next few hundred years, the population will continue to grow slowly. Increase until the population of 150-200 million."
"After this, we may try to build our own planetary fortress..."
"Scientists also We are studying the related technologies of the planetary fortress. We have basically matured the rest of the technologies, and the most important thing is the planetary speed..."
These new motherships are being introduced everywhere on the digital screens on the roadside. . The population above is carefully arranged, corresponding to the six underground cities currently owned by mankind, just one city and one spaceship.
People's daily life will not be greatly affected.
If divided according to military strength, all spaceships are divided into five categories.
The first is Titan Grade, which is the spaceship with the largest tonnage that can be built by humans. Various materials and technologies have reached the limit.
The price and cost of building a Titan Grade spaceship is very high, so people only built one. Too much trouble, no need.
The second category is the aircraft carrier class, that is, a giant spaceship that can carry 20 million people. This type of spaceship can carry a large number of people, is also quite capable, and has the outstanding combat capability.
Next are the cruiser class, the destroyer class, and the escort class spaceship. These numbered spaceships are curvature spaceships, which can carry a large number of soldiers and are also storage points for drones.
The smaller one is the curvature drone, that is, the cellular attack community, which is quite expensive.
The next step is the ordinary person drone. Due to its small size and low cost, ordinary drones are Suicide Squad.
The energy device of this type of small unmanned aerial vehicle is still ordinary nuclear fusion. It can obtain a relatively large initial speed through the electromagnetic ejection of the mother ship. Due to the low cost, you can produce as much as you want. They are usually equipped with high formidable power missiles, and they earn money by hitting the opponent at close range.
In addition to some electronic jamming spaceship, early warning spaceship, reconnaissance spaceship, etc., the military system based on this Reverend is like this, multi-level and multi-dimensional.
Large and small spaceships are numbered and graded, with a total of 320 ships, reaching a reasonable range that human civilization and economy can bear.
If spaceship is added, a large number of conscriptions will be required, and the increase in maintenance costs is not unbearable, but in a peaceful state, it is not very affordable.
After this simple Spring Festival, the next step is to set off for a faraway place. Inside the captain's room of the Departure, the expedition ceremony is being held. The captain is in front of the TV, introducing matters related to the first long-distance warp voyage.
"...Ladies and gentlemen, our next goal is Tabby, which is about 400 light years away from our current position. If calculated at three times the speed of light, it would take about 133 years. Time."
"...but we have been impossible to exercise at the highest speed, and it may take a little more time, maybe two hundred years."
"Because it is the first For a long-distance voyage, we need to debug the flight process of the fleet during the whole process. If there is no special reason, we will not investigate the planet passing by, and we will reach the end in one breath!"
Captain Feng Zichen’s The introduction is quite colloquial, even if you don't have enough professional knowledge, you can understand it.
The performance of this female captain over the years is quite good. You did good reforms and personal abilities, so she has been re-elected. The members of the Science Council have no objections.
The theoretically attainable lifespan of the new human civilization is nearly 700 years old, and regular personnel are about 500 years old. Therefore, the captain can be selected once every 50 years and can serve up to 4 times. A total of two hundred years of tenure is enough for a captain to do a lot of things, provided that his ability is sufficient.
Because it is an election within the party, the power is peaceful and excessive, basically there will be no dog-blood incidents such as party disputes.
Each era has its own style, and in this new era, people have survived many hardships and experienced a sinking accident, but they have become more confident and more confident than ever More radical.
The entire civilization has stayed in this place for too long, so it should go out and get in touch with more civilizations, and people are willing to accept new development strategies.
