Chapter 476: Chapter 477 Expansion and Mission
"At first, the result came out."
"Let me see." When it first received information from the same race for browsing, the content of the information surprised it, "Three hundred and ten light years? Did you miscalc it? The empire does not have superluminal technology.
The seed plan of the empire began to be implemented for a period of time after the end of the Red Prison Campaign, and there was also a period of time away from that battle, but it was far from being as long as 310 years ago. That is to say, seeds that traveled at sublight speed can never be as far away as 310 light years away now.
The collector who reported this explained this.
"At the beginning, the seed has been moving at the sub-light speed, and if we want to catch up with it, we must reach a sub-light speed higher than the seed speed, and such a high speed will be a great consumption of resources. The ethnic group can't be consuming such a huge amount of resources for a Selin individual, so we simply give up. With the idea of chasing, we can directly calculate which gravitational potential energy of the star system will capture the seeds, and then get the current coordinates.
"So that's it." First expression of understanding.
The collector has no humane spirit. It is one thing to promise the empire to search for seeds, but it is another matter whether it can be searched or not. This matter itself is not a very important thing for the collector. You can't invest your blood to search for a Selin.
Moreover, such a distant large scale, encountering some obstacles such as nebules, meteorite fragments, or ice, is a devastating ending. The seeds of the empire do not have anti-matter shields like sublight speed creatures in front of them, and even a grain of sand can cause penetrating damage.
The real interstellar voyage is full of risks. If the protection is insufficient, it needs enough luck to make up for this deficiency. Otherwise, a bad one can explain the fate on the interstellar voyage. The farther the voyage is, the greater the risk.
From the beginning, the probability of Celine's life inside the seed is very slim.
"So have you investigated the stellar system and the route to it?"
According to the original idea, it is the gradual expansion of a star and the arrival of the star system step by step. In this way, time will be used efficiently. The time consumed by searching and not searching is not much different for the population.
"I see, then we will give priority to expanding colonization in that direction..."
The collectors also agreed with the initial idea. As the first said, they were not in a hurry. After all, they were hundreds of light-years apart. Even if they rushed there in a hurry, maybe the people had cooled down. The collectors were not very optimistic about it. The seeds were still intact, which took too much luck.
Moreover, it is only a hypothesis to be captured by a star. If it is not captured by the stellar gravity, that kind of child will fly to a farther place.
A thousand light years, tens of thousands of light years, it is possible that the sub-light speed is enough to get rid of the gravity of the river system. As long as it is long enough, it is not surprising that the seeds of the empire run to the river system next door.
Therefore, the hope of survival is not the least, only more hopeless.
"Uh... I roughly calculated that it would take about 490 years to develop disassembling materials in the stellar system."
Some collectors estimate the time to arrive at that stellar system, and the development within the stellar system also takes time.
"It's not long. Such a long scale is already very fast." The first road.
It's really not long. In the case of only sublight speed navigation, every interstellar voyage of tens or hundreds of light-years will take tens of hundreds of years to complete.
At the end of the conversation between the collectors, they began to prepare the preparation materials needed for the voyage. In fact, they did not need to prepare too much, just antimatter. The goal chosen by the collectors was to have sufficient planetary resources, enough for them to build antimatter giants and star orbits, so they do not need to prepare too much. You can make a long voyage.
Generally speaking, stars like the target of the collector's mission will not be the first choice for interstellar colonization. If the starting resources are too low, they will need more time and energy to deal with and rectify the extreme environment. If there is a star system with a better environment, the collectors will not pick such a hard bone to nibble.
The star orbit is adjusted under the guidance of various observation data, and the star orbit extending from the star to the Kuiper belt is adjusted to the position where the destination star will reach in the future.
