He actually felt so guilt, but he quickly let it go. No matter how much he had changed and beca more determined to alter the fate of humanity, in his heart, his family always held an extrely important place.
And by his side, it was the safest place.
Even if he were to reach the end of the road, he would still do everything in his power to arrange a secure path for his family.
Just like what’s recorded in that history of the future.
Shen Shi didn’t talk with Ai Xin’Er for too long, only confirming the status of the Wogte and his wife before ending the communication. As the fleet commander, he was bearing considerable pressure himself.
Thus, he focused more on the first battle that would take place soon.
Forty-seven hours later, with all the warships at a stable velocity, the third engine installed on the ship, the Curvature Engine that would bring the entire ship into a sub-light speed state, finally activated.
However, unlike the previous first and second engines, when the Curvature Engine started, though it involved a terrifying level of acceleration, the interior of the ship, including the entire vessel, did not experience a massive load.
In fact, it was much more stable than the previous acceleration.
Aside from having undergone sufficient acceleration before activating the Curvature Engine at the optimal speed, this stability also highlighted the power and uniqueness of the Curvature Engine.
Not only inside the warship, but even in a not insignificant space outside the ship, it was within the range of the Curvature Engine’s effect.
And the warriors could finally free themselves from the high-load state they were in before, exiting the "sleeping bags" with load-reduction features and returning to training.
It’s worth ntioning that, under the acceleration of the Curvature Engine, although the distances between fleets clearly beca greater, the communication delay between them actually decreased.
"The reason is simple; during the Curvature Engine’s startup, the concept of space we’re in changes." Shen Shi explained simply at the senior commander’s eting, "So may not have learned about this yet, but the foundational theory here is crucial to our upcoming operations because we will be in a sub-light speed state, attacking enemies also in sub-light speed."
Each captain listened carefully.
So had already learned about this.
But so didn’t understand temporarily.
Moreover, learning devices simply forcibly imparted knowledge and did not teach understanding or application. In this regard, if discussions could happen, it would undoubtedly have a crucial role in the upcoming strategic objectives.
And with Shen Shi’s explanation, the related technical foundation gradually beca clear.
"We all know that cosmic space is not a flat mbrane but has noticeable fluctuations; this is curvature.
Such curvature is imperceptible on a planet because the distance is too small, and the change in curvature can’t be felt. However, when speed is fast enough and distance long enough, these fluctuations beco extrely noticeable.
It’s like driving over a bumpy deceleration strip or raised and deep pits on Blue Star; at slow speeds, they’re no problem, but speeding up causes a spatial cutting sensation.
For instance, in an instant, the back part has reached this curvature, while the front part remains at the previous curvature. The consequence of this is mass-energy conversion, where the mass comprising our bodies becos infinitely large and then, under the rapidly changing curvature fluctuations at high speed, gets dispersed, split, or even annihilated by space continuously.
This is why ’light speed’ in the universe is so special.
It can actually be considered the fastest speed at which any ’whole’ can remain ’whole’ under cosmic curvature.
And only zero-rest-mass photons have the possibility of traveling at this speed.
Exceeding this speed makes it impossible for any matter to remain whole within the curvature fluctuations.
rely relying on conventional propulsion, even sub-light speed is unattainable, and upon accelerating near this region, everything will be directly converted into mass-energy by fluctuating spatial curvature, with no possibility of perpetual acceleration.
Only the Curvature Engine can enable a spaceship to achieve sub-light speed navigation!
It can, through micro-adjustnts of curvature, maintain the curvature of the space around the spaceship at a relatively constant level, akin to creating a small, constantly flat ’Curvature Bubble’ unaffected by the waves on the cosmic sea, with a tension-filled ’mbrane’ on the bubble’s surface. This mbrane propels the entire Curvature Bubble forward at top speed through spatial curvature fluctuations.
...
Shen Shi’s explanation was very easy to understand.
It allowed many who hadn’t learned about this domain to have so concept of it.
Especially so liaison officers who hadn’t been modified.
Even though this explanation wasn’t entirely accurate and omitted many aspects, it was very fitting for explaining the current navigation state, even for explaining interstellar wars at sub-light speed.
Why, at such speeds and distances, did communication between warships beco easier?
Because all the warships’ "mbranes" within the fleet reached specific curvature paraters. In other words, when these mbranes approached each other at a certain distance, they ford a larger mbrane in actual space. Within this mbrane, space was flat and consistent, devoid of mass-energy conversion from curvature change, allowing so signal transmissions to exhibit a "jump" phenonon within the mbrane.
Not only would this make communication in the Curvature Engine-driven fleet more convenient, but crucially, it provided the possibility for interstellar combat in sub-light speed navigation.
— As long as the "mbrane" was consistent, we could keep enemies in a relatively stationary Curvature Bubble together.
This is the Curvature Bubble battleground.
This further highlighted the importance of Curvature Engine technology in such sub-light speed offensives and defenses.
Because adjustnts and micro-tuning of curvature relied on the Curvature Engine.
A more powerful engine could not only forcibly enter the "bubble" of an adversary to launch attacks but also choose to exit the "bubble battleground" at any ti. A less powerful engine would struggle to escape even when pursued and attacked.
There are many other roles as well.
So, upon understanding this, they finally realized what gave them the most confidence in waging capture battles against reconnaissance units.
Their engine was more powerful!
"So first, we need to identify the target, then rge into their sa Curvature Foam and launch an attack?" a senior liaison officer summarized the operational plan with a question.
"You’ve omitted the most important step," Shen Shi reminded, "We not only need to join their Curvature Bubble space but also resonate and micro-tune the entire stable curvature to achieve information sealing. After all, wanting to transmit intelligence from such Curvature Foam is impossible without knowing the specific curvature paraters. All information will be sealed within the Curvature Bubble."
So that’s it!
So, like those liaison officers who didn’t understand the specifics, finally realized why Shen Shi was confident to engage in capture operations under absolute information sealing, until they completely took over the enemy’s entire reconnaissance feedback communication system.
The reason lies here!
However, this also ant that if the enemy first sensed sothing amiss and forcibly exited the state of Curvature Navigation, it would be necessary to quickly destroy it to prevent it from sending signals.
