Zhang Yuan met an old acquaintance in his office, Mr. John Wilson, the pessimistic scientist in the nuclear fusion engine.

John woke up two months earlier than him. He seemed to have been hit by the bleak reality. He just greeted Zhang Yuan and sat in his seat all day long, in a daze, I don’t know. What are you thinking about.

Zhang Yuan sighed, almost everyone here is like this.

With the current social environment, it is no longer possible to engage in some complex tasks. At least half of the population is depressed, and it is quite rare to be able to do a simple job. Don't try to create too much social value.

Fortunately, the decision-makers have already estimated this situation in advance, and made certain adjustments when formulating the hibernation policy.

At present, there are a total of 600 sober populations, and more than 100 are responsible for the maintenance of the power system. The remaining population is distributed in several aspects such as communications, medical affairs, botanical gardens, and material management.

There are also a small number of military and administrative personnel responsible for maintaining law and order.

In this small, self-sufficient society, everyone’s workload is very small.

Earth Era’s engine is extinguished, and it sails in the universe by inertia. In addition, most of the functions have been shut down. Therefore, more than a hundred years of work will not accumulate catastrophic accidents. It's okay to slack off.

...

In this uncomfortable atmosphere, time passes day by day. Zhang Yuan has restrained all his emotions and started to learn new knowledge normally.

Enough new things have happened on Earth, whether it is academic, historical, or humanities, there are many things worth studying seriously.

Because of the qualitative changes caused by quantitative changes, Zhang Yuan found that he could not even understand the most cutting-edge scientific papers. He can only read relevant news written on popular science websites to grasp the overall scientific developments.

He said to himself: "It's pretty good, it's a good thing not to understand. If ancient people like me can still understand, human beings will definitely be over."

"What happened to the ancient people? It's okay for me to be a university teacher!" John said: "In the 25th century, the students in the university are not learning Calculus? It's so boring."

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but laughed This sentence is true. Before the emergence of the technology for improving the intelligence of the whole people, college students of any era should be learning Calculus. The entire civilization still has to be promoted by genius.

"John, what does this super-alpha state mean?"

"I don't know, it may be a new academic term in condensed matter physics... I will help you look up the relevant Thesis."

The two people in the office have a lot of things they don’t understand in the face of modern knowledge. However, it is quite interesting to study with multiple people. The progress of the research is faster than that of one person.

There was a question on the Internet. If Einstein travels to modern times, can he become a Peak scientist?

Peak is not necessarily, but it is quite easy to become a good scientist again. Because under the influence of good habits, learning new knowledge is actually a relatively pleasant thing for Einstein. After a few years of work, it is estimated that he can learn cutting-edge subjects.

Even if you have new knowledge in front of your eyes but don’t learn it, you will feel a sense of depravity.

"...The good news of cutting-edge science is good news. Through a condensed matter superfluid experiment, it seems to have found evidence of the existence of gravitons!"

Zhang Yuan suddenly, it seems that something has been discovered The big news, yelled.

"It's really not easy!"

After reading one of the papers, he sighed deeply.

The mood at the moment can only be described in one word: cool!

According to the description of this paper, after scientists used superfluid to surround a limited area, they found that this part of the area had a very small amount of gravitational change.

This gravitational change has exceeded expectations.

In some theories, gravitons are bosons with spin 2, which will produce a superfluid mechanism analogous to helium-4. In other words, this part of the superfluid is likely to short-circuit some of the gravitons flowing through this area, thereby realizing localized shielding.

The evidence for the existence of gravitons may be the greatest scientific discovery in the past two centuries!

It means that certain basic theories seem to be further developed.

A variety of related papers have emerged one after another, and until now there is no choice of the final winner.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuan's heartbeat speed has accelerated slightly. He deeply knows how important the discovery of gravitons is to cutting-edge science!

"The gravitons involved in physical phenomena are gravity. If gravity can be unified into quantum theory, then the "grand unified theory" will no longer be a dream!"

" Under the guidance of theoretical foundations, anti-gravity and artificial gravity-related technologies can truly emerge, and mankind will once again achieve a qualitative change in technology!"

Zhang Yuan is still very willing to engage in research in this area.

Of course, as far as he is currently concerned, he can only be a remote watchman, looking for some fun in the news.

Any progress in human civilization is a very safe and gratifying thing for him.

"I am already a two-hundred-year-old elder, younger generations, come on." Because he was in a good mood, Zhang Yuan played said with a smile.

"cough cough, if you want to learn about Earth civilization, you can look at the annual special reports of the Deep Space Foundation, instead of looking for information here, the news sent is really outrageous. Some of them were fabricated by the media indiscriminately."

John said slowly aside.

In so many months, he has slowly returned to normal. Moreover, Zhang Yuan's violent learning spirit directly drove him, and he had to follow along with him.

This guy still sighs sometimes, but at any rate he can communicate.

I have to say that time can dilute everything, and human beings are also a very receptive creature. If you choose to keep yourself busy, all the heavy will be slowly thrown behind...

People always have to live for themselves.

"Why, seeing these scientific research results, you are not pessimistic about the future of Earth civilization?" Zhang Yuan smiled and asked: "It is still very refreshing to see scientific progress. A qualitative change has occurred, and we have also experienced a qualitative change"

John excitedly opened the mouth and said: "It is indeed an amazing discovery! I was also happy for a long time a few days ago, diminishing the pessimistic expectations. By the way, what do you think about the phenomenon of gravitational loss caused by superfluid phenomena? How to realize anti-gravity through industrialization?"

"Graviton and fermion have a kind of interaction, except for Yukawa, which is similar to electron photon action. In addition to coupling, there may be other terms in the Lagrangian. I think as long as these terms are understood, the effect of gravitational shielding can continue to increase!"

"The nature of the world is really super Just imagine!"

"Aren't the four basic forces the ultimate essence?"

"Don't be too optimistic. At present, the whole theory has not been fully understood."

The more they talked, the more excited they became, and they began to talk about the mountains indiscriminately, as if anti-gravity technology could really be achieved...
