Wandering Meteor-Chapter 168 - 167 Universe Map
Chapter 168: Chapter 167 Universe Map
This question is something Lu Chen cannot answer yet.
At least the current Lu Chen cannot yet answer it.
The origin of the universe is a mystery that countless civilizations have devoted their entire lives to figuring out.
Whether it is a coincidental accidental factor, the intervention of higher-dimensional beings, or a method beyond their comprehension, all are possibilities.
To know this truth, they must continue to grow and wander, only then might they understand it.
For now, the only certainty is that Gravity Stones are not as simple as they thought, it’s highly likely that they are unified force material, or at least strong gravity material. However, if it really is unified force material, it means that the way Lu Chen has been using it was only one of many, and there are far more uses not yet discovered.
At this moment, Green Star took over the conversation from the Wandering, suddenly saying, "It is said that the origin of the universe can be found in the Cosmic Center."
The Cosmic Center is the original point of the Big Bang, which caused space to expand outwards. Naturally, this initial explosion point became the cosmic center.
As the original location of the Big Bang, the cosmic center would definitely leave some traces of the Big Bang, and if a civilization is strong enough, they might be able to find clues about the origin of the universe from these traces.
Hearing Green Star’s words, Wandering immediately asked, "Green Star, do you know the direction of the Cosmic Center?"
"I vaguely remember it. After all, I came from the vicinity of the center."
Green Star said, "However, the cosmic center is not a point as you imagine. Under the terrifying force of the Big Bang, the space expanded in an instant to an incredibly vast extent; even using light-years as a unit is considered small for that area."
"Green Star, how much do you know about the origin of the universe?" Lu Chen’s curiosity was piqued by Green Star’s words.
Green Star said, "I’ve only occasionally learned a bit from some civilization’s data, and don’t know more than you. If we want to clearly understand the secrets of the universe’s origin, I’m afraid we’ll need to take a trip ourselves."
Wandering said, "Green Star, did you say ’we’? Have you finally decided to join our Wandering Alliance and form a life community with us?"
Green Star said, "I’ve suddenly become interested in many things, whether it’s the Entropy Beast and Entropy Civilization, or the origin of the universe, or even how far you can go. It all seems full of intriguing mysteries. It’s just that I’ve only now decided to join, I hope you won’t mind."
When it was confirmed that Green Star wanted to join the Wandering Alliance, Constant Star Lu Chen and Wandering were too delighted to care.
Immediately, Constant Star Lu Chen notified Earth Civilization and Light Synthesis Civilization to discuss the matter of Green Star joining, and after some negotiations, it was finally confirmed.
As for the subsequent matters about forming a life community, firstly Earth Civilization would include the existential identity of Green Star in the Memorial Star System within the Wandering Base, then Light Synthesis Civilization would start the interstellar immigration plan, preparing to move to Green Star.
This plan was something Constant Star Lu Chen had long conceived, and only now is it being implemented when the conditions are ripe.
However, even though Light Synthesis Civilization is moving to Green Star, the Wandering Base remains the command and communication center of the Wandering Alliance, and the Light Synthesis Civilization would still need to leave some elites at the Wandering Base to handle the affairs of the Wandering Alliance.
Moreover, the Wandering Base has always been independent and ranks above both Earth Civilization and Light Synthesis Civilization.
As plans for the Memorial Star System and interstellar immigration were progressing simultaneously, Green Star began working closely with the science team within the Wandering Base, mainly because Green Star has rich experience and knows the coordinates of the cosmic center.
If the scientists could make use of Green Star’s information to draw out the Universe 3D Map, it would enable the Wandering Alliance to plan in advance the route and travel plans to the Cosmic Center, after all, after previous deliberations, both Earth Civilization and Light Synthesis Civilization agreed unanimously on the long-term decision to head toward the Cosmic Center and explore the origin of the universe.
During this time, Constant Star Lu Chen has been keeping an eye on the drawing progress of the cosmic map and thus learned about the division methods of the various regions in the universe.
According to Green Star, the Advanced Civilization of the Cosmic Center divided the vast universe into three zones: Cosmic Zone, Star Zone, and Sky Zone, and no matter how much the universe expands in the future, it will not exceed these three divisions.
This is because these zones are not divided by specific distance ranges, but by the time periods of the Big Bang.
For example, the area expanded in the instant of the Big Bang is called the Cosmic Zone, also the location of the Cosmic Center. The advanced civilization divided the total Cosmic Zone into 3.6 million numbered Cosmic Zones, with each being 10,000 light-years in length, width, and height.
The space that slowly calmed down after the Big Bang is called the Star Zone.
Since various micro particles had already formed and stars had begun to be formed, it was thus named Star Zone.
Each numbered Star Zone is also divided using 10,000 light-years in length, width, and height as units and extends outward from there, totaling 36 million Star Zones, from the first to the thirty-six millionth.
Lastly, the Sky Zone refers to the space formed by the superluminal expansion after the Big Bang had subsided, encompassing space that is currently expanding as well as space that will expand in the future.
The detailed division of the Sky Zone also uses 10,000 light-years as the basic unit, and the specific number of zones is not yet known, because the universe is continuously expanding, and it is impossible to calculate the exact zone value. However, according to predictions by Advanced Civilizations, the number of zones in the Sky Zone is at least a hundred million times greater than that of the Star Zone.
And this number is still increasing.
One can imagine how vast our universe truly is!
Even a Level 4 Civilization, to traverse such a vast universe, would require a tremendous astronomical amount of time.
And within these three zones, the volume of each individual zone is the same; they are just called by different names. This not only facilitates encompassing a constantly changing unified universe but also differentiates the density of celestial bodies.
Because, at the beginning of the Big Bang, the terrifying high-temperature energy rushed outwards due to the explosion, gradually forming various particles. However, as the explosion’s power weakens with increasing distance, both energy richness and material abundance would decrease with distance.
And because material abundance relates to the probability and number of celestial bodies formed.
Therefore, the number of celestial bodies in the outer areas would definitely be less, while those closer to the inner areas would be more, hence the Cosmic Center has the most material and the highest number of celestial bodies.
Galaxy Nebula originally was located near Sky Zone 23. After merging with Andromeda Nebula, it turned into a massive nebula spanning nearly a hundred Sky Zones.
This means the position of the Wandering Star System is within an inner side of the Sky Zone. Just by flying forward a few Sky Zones, they could enter a densely packed Star Zone.
Once the cosmic map was drawn, the Wandering Star System began planning the itinerary for the journey towards the Cosmic Center, while waiting for the troops searching for the black sphere in the wreckage of the Planet Flying Device to return.
