"I bet those aliens are definitely fans of flying bricks." Xiang Shan said as he carefully looked at the row of plates in front of him that were suspended and slid by the robotic arm.
This is a thing that was dismantled from the core layer of Ogun. The Rama project was named after the myth of "Ogun" and chose a name as the project code name. These plate-shaped objects are called "Orun Mira"——
In a certain myth, he is the god of prophecy, magic and knowledge.
"Orunmila" - these plate-like objects are fixed on the inner side of Ogun. They are closely arranged together, like a kaleidoscope.
There are many what are probably tracks running parallel to the walls. The robots probably move along these tracks.
At the backbone of the entire core is a machine that is no longer usable. There must be some malfunction in it. No matter how much humans try, there is no response - of course, it may also be because humans have not yet found the "power button" or "power button".
Power button".
Or it could simply be that the power supply equipment connected to humans does not have enough voltage.
Who knows if the civilian standard for aliens is 100,000 volts?
But currently, those who have the right to operate the alien machine do not dare to directly apply the voltage to a hundred volts, for fear of burning out the only complete sample of the alien machine.
Ah, of course, there are still some incomplete ones.
During Xiangshan's exploration, they were blocked by some rubble. Behind the pile of rubble were some other incomplete mechanical remains. The number of these wrecks was very large, and they looked like they were drones.
By the way, not even a single organic macromolecule from extraterrestrial origin has been found.
Several scientists, including Xiang Shan, have thought about the idea that "aliens are cybermen, biological brains living in mechanical bodies." Although it is ridiculous, no one thinks that putting thinking organs into cyberbodies is enough.
It can last thousands of times the natural life cycle, but humans still carefully inspect every piece of machinery.
There is no evidence that any living organisms were present inside. These things are purely mechanical.
Human beings record the location of those machines and record the number and coordinates of each piece in detail.
It is said that research institutions with government background are working on back-referencing what these machines looked like before.
Within the Rama Project Park, many scientists have also begun restoration work.
However, many scientists have already expressed disappointment.
Whether it is materials science or engineering, the builders of "Ogun" are almost the same as those on Earth. At most, they are "a little more advanced than Earth."
The issue that the big shots who are the permanent members of the Security Council are most concerned about, that is, "the technology that Ogun can bring to today's mankind that can be directly used in industry or military affairs" seems to be just that.
For example, the structure of a fairly mature nuclear rocket engine.
The only problems that humans need to face now are the information on these plates and the repair of those machines.
All in all, the biologists who were urgently pulled over, especially those engaged in molecular biology, were suddenly in an embarrassing situation - because all the biological macromolecules in the spacecraft were analyzed and determined to be pollution from the earth.
There is not a single extraterrestrial biological macromolecule in it. There is nothing for them to study.
Those who study morphology and behavior can also try to speculate on the possible forms and cognitive abilities of aliens, but there is really no research object in molecular biology.
The reason why these people were not evacuated directly was partly for insurance - just in case - but also because some people speculated that the information on these composite boards contained the genetic information of aliens, which needed to be analyzed.
Of course, all this has nothing to do with Xiang Shan now.
He looked at these stone slabs that really came from extraterrestrial beings with fascination.
Another civilization, across an unknown number of light years and an unknown number of thousands of years, sent this creation to the solar system. These stone slabs may have existed longer than human civilization.
When the Australopithecus just stepped down from the tree, it might have been on the road and rubbed against countless interstellar dust. When the Mayans looked up at the stars, it might have been passing through the Oort cloud.
And after such a vast space span and such a long time span, it can still exist less than two meters away from the individual Xiangshan.
This in itself is a "miracle".
Ingrid stood next to him, quietly looking at the stone tablets with unknown messages written on them.
There are so many people who want to study these stone slabs. The Rama Project has to strictly manage these stone slabs. If you want to actually conduct research, you must apply in advance.
Although every scientist in the park can obtain relevant information about the symbols on the slate, there are still some scientists who want to take a closer look.
It's like visiting a museum. Although you can look at photos of many cultural relics at will, the experience of actually touching them is different.
And Xiang Shan sighed: "I bet those aliens are definitely fans of flying bricks."
He spoke in Chinese, and among the people in this circle, only Ingrid happened to understand it.
"Huh?" Ingrid said, "How do you say that?"
"It's really a good way to carve information down." Xiang Shan sighed: "The noise resistance is very strong, really, very strong, and the cost is very low."
"Um."
"The reason why electronic products are difficult to bear such a heavy responsibility is because they are too small. A small accident or the impact of a high-energy particle will cause bit flipping... Of course, they can also make several mirror backups and constantly compare the relative
Verify the position data. However, this spacecraft only has such a small area, and it is entirely possible that it will be wiped out by a beam of gamma rays from an unknown number of light-years away, right?"
"Oh." Ingrid nodded.
"In fact, everyone who makes machinery knows that if you can't make a sufficiently precise machine, you might as well make it bigger. When the material strength is sufficient and there is no need to worry about the operating cost, large and crude machinery can be made small.
And precision machinery can accomplish the work.”
"oh."
"But this information density is too low..." He whispered: "The data that can be stored in the same volume is pitiful..."
"I heard that lasers are used to burn information into a certain kind of crystal. It's also very stable?"
"But in that case, interpretation becomes a problem." Xiang Shan said: "If a piece of information must be read with high precision, then when the reading equipment fails, the information will lose its meaning. And the more the information is
It's small, so the requirements for interpretation equipment are higher." Xiang Shan pointed at the slate: "As for this thing, a scanner with a speed of more than 100 can read it."
