That’s why we have such a discussion now.
From the experintal level, Zhao Yi has made it very clear, but many people are still full of doubts as they do not fully understand the form of Z-wave.
An old academician from the High Energy Institute asked, "Academician Zhao, I have a question. Why would the speed increase by several tens or hundreds of tis rather than just a few tis? The animals we observed were compressed by about tenfold."
"And even if the speed is increased by several tens of tis, the duration should not be long, right? In the vast universe, what significance would that have?"
Zhao Yi nodded politely to the old academician and then replied, "Let answer the first question. First of all, in this experint, the area covered by Z-wave experienced spatial compression, and the rate was not tenfold but over a hundred tis. However, as everyone saw, the rate of spatial compression varies for different objects. It appears that flora and fauna were compressed by more than ten tis, while most tals were only compressed by five to six tis."
"And the air that we can’t see—I’m not sure of the exact figures—but its compression rate should be around twenty to thirty tis."
"The rate of compression of matter is related to its overall characteristics."
"So, the compression of space by Z-wave is over a hundred tis. Does this make sense now?"
After finishing, Zhao Yi looked around and saw that many people were thinking. He paused for about ten seconds before continuing, "To the second question, the ratio of Z-wave’s space compression has no direct relation to the size of the covered area; it is directly related to the number of particles within the area, their characteristics, and the intensity of the magnetic field."
"Plasma state matter and magnetic fields can absorb Z-wave. If these are present in the covered area, they will reduce the energy of Z-wave, leading to a significant decrease in the rate of spatial compression."
"In our experintal covered area, there were nurous materials and plants and animals, all under Earth’s magnetic field. As I ntioned before, the magnetic field has a direct absorbing effect on Z-wave, so the rate of spatial compression by Z-wave has been greatly weakened."
"What if it were in empty space?"
"In an area covering hundreds of thousands, millions, or even over a hundred million kiloters, the total particle mass could be negligible."
"Therefore, when Z-wave is deployed in space, its effect on spatial compression would swiftly amplify by a factor of millions, tens of millions, or even higher orders of magnitude."
"What does this concept an?"
"At its closest approach, Mars is about 55 million kiloters from Earth. Even with only a million-fold increase, a space ship traveling at a speed of 1 kiloter per second would only need 55 seconds to reach Mars."
"This is not a fantasy about the future, but a technology and reality already before us. The example I just gave may even be an underestimate because based on my calculations, the effect of Z-wave in space could lower by an order of magnitude of ten to the tenth power. Hence, with one Z-wave, we could reach Mars instantly, with the transit ti being effectively negligible."
After saying this, Zhao Yi sat down to watch the lively discussion among the attendees.
The eting beca animated.
Everyone was intensely interested in what Zhao Yi had said, especially the prospect of establishing a super-sized space ship, which was incredibly attractive.
The second consideration was the advantage in space and its impact on Earth’s technology.
If true space technological superiority could be established, for instance by really constructing a super-sized space ship, the competition in Earth’s military sector would surely be significantly diminished.
This represents a dinsional strike, an even greater difference than that between firearms and swords.
Now that the core technology for space ships had been revealed, it indeed warranted substantial investnt into the developnt in the relevant fields.
Because that is the future.
Quickly.
The ’Space Ship Plan’ was roughly outlined at the eting.
As this was only a eting of the experint team, and although many senior figures were involved, compared to the imnse ’Space Ship Plan’ they discussed, there was still a lack of heavyweight influence.
This plan would surely inspire more discussions, more etings, and the participation of more senior leaders and representatives from various sectors before it could be officially finalized.
But those present believed no matter the cost, the ’Space Ship Plan’ was certain to be approved.
Because its allure was simply irresistible!
----
The experint could be said to have achieved perfect success.
Everyone involved felt extrely shocked, and the post-experint eting was even more astonishing; the leaders felt the need to cool down to fully comprehend what next steps should be taken.
Others were shocked but also had many ideas.
For example, Liu Jiankun.
Liu Jiankun specifically sought out Zhao Yi to express his strong belief in the space ship project.
"This plan represents the future!"
"If in my lifeti I could see a space ship like those in science fiction movies, really, I could die—cough cough—satisfied."
"Academician Zhao, is everything you said in the eting true?"
"I want to confirm once more."
Zhao Yi nodded indifferently, "It’s true, all true."
"That’s wonderful!"
Liu Jiankun imdiately showed a face full of joy, "I specifically ca to ask you about the company setup you ntioned before."
"Ah?"
This turn of events caught Zhao Yi off-guard.
Liu Jiankun continued, "I thought about it all night yesterday. The Space Ship Plan is just too vast, pulling in technology, manufacturing, and many other aspects—too much to handle, certainly not sothing that can be manufactured by a single Aviation Group."
