Regardless, at least for now, humanity can be 100% certain that the biosphere on Life Planet is still extremely precious among Interstellar Civilization.
According to the civilization level described by the 'Silver Mist Consciousness' based on the onboard information of the Moke Star Civilization, the spaceship that crashed on Callisto possessed Warp Engine and should have belonged to Interstellar Civilization.
The Red Gas inside that Unknown Civilization Spaceship also couldn't grant Sentient Life a permanent lifespan.
Speaking of Warp Engine, those two Warp Engine were still on the Hope, but research on them did not yield any major breakthroughs, and the same was true for deciphering the internal system of the Antimatter Storage Device.
This is reality; there is no such thing as a Low-level Civilization finding something from a higher civilization and then being able to decipher and recreate it in a few days.
Technological barriers make it almost impossible for humans to understand how these technologies work.
Sometimes, Yue Yuan even felt that humanity might only be able to fully understand the true working mechanism of the Warp Engine if it mastered the Grand Unified Theory of Four Fundamental Forces.
However, there has also been a lot of good news in the development over the years.
Humans have still managed to extract many powerful alloy manufacturing techniques from the wreckage of the old spaceship, and these alloys are now being used on the New Warship that will serve Human Flagship.
How powerful is that alloy, modeled after the wreckage of the alien spaceship that crashed on Callisto? Humans once created a piece of alloy two meters thick and approximately eight meters long and wide, then dug a pit on the planet Wolf 1061 c, placed it inside, and conducted an experiment using a hydrogen bomb. A hydrogen bomb exploded above it, and the instantaneous 30 million degrees Celsius and powerful shockwave only caused slight deformation.
It has extremely strong resistance to impact and damage.
Of course, the core temperature of a hydrogen bomb explosion is not just 30 million degrees Celsius, but 350 million degrees Celsius. However, when humans manufactured this alloy, they already knew its melting point, otherwise they would not have been able to manufacture it. So, that experiment was actually testing its impact resistance.
On the wreckage of that spaceship, all the other metals were broken beyond recognition, but this alloy still shone brightly. In the end, humans dismantled it all, moved it to the Hope, and packed it up to take it away.
However, this alloy is extremely difficult to manufacture. Human factories worked tirelessly for more than ten years and only produced ten tons.
Because its melting point is as high as 150 million degrees Celsius, humans were only able to manufacture this alloy because they had mastered the high temperature generated by controlled helium fusion.
To ignite helium, at a pressure of 0.5 times the mass of the sun, at least 100 million Kelvin is required, and 200 million Kelvin is needed for controlled operation.
The conversion to Celsius is roughly the same; Kelvin minus 273.15 gives you the Celsius temperature.
It is conceivable that it is impossible for humanity to equip all warships with it, given the current level of human productivity. Therefore, humanity can only equip it on the hull of the flagship.
Tests have shown that this alloy not only has strong impact resistance but also excellent heat insulation. Using this alloy as the hull of a warship, virtually nothing can burn through it unless a high-yield hydrogen bomb explodes right next to it.
In any case, none of the Laser Weapon currently used by mankind can burn through it.
What does this mean? It means that this is a material that surpasses the current level of human civilization. A warship with an outer shell made of this material would be virtually impenetrable by any weapon in a civilization of the same level. After all, a warship wouldn't be foolish enough to charge headlong into the epicenter of a hydrogen bomb explosion, would it? This alloy material represents a new height that humanity has reached in the field of materials science over the past decade or so. Although it was developed through research and imitation of materials from alien spacecraft, it is still a material that humanity can master.
Based on this material, humanity's flagship project came into being.
Humanity plans to produce this alloy at full capacity within the next two or three decades, and then use it to build a flagship with extremely high overall performance.
Of course, humans will definitely build more than one New Warship. After all, the population is growing, and even if no one operates it, it can be built as a reserve warship, or it can be directly controlled by AI.
Due to population size issues, humanity has had to focus on AI control, specifically researching Combat AI.
In the combat configuration envisioned by the Command Department, there is a method that uses a New Warship as the main force, equipped with dozens of warships like Callisto as support, to form a small squadron combat force.
To date, humanity possesses seventy Callisto- class warships, but only two New Warships, with the New Alloy Flagship still under construction.
In addition to these two types of warships, humans have also built many Small Escort Ships and destroyers. These types of warships are much smaller, generally only about 200 meters in length.
In addition, humans plan to build several Space Carrier, mainly to carry Suicide Drone Fighter.
To be honest, humanity has never fought a real space war, but not having fought one doesn't mean we know nothing. The universe is called the Sea of Stars, so let's build a fleet first, just like a navy.
Since Star System to rely on, resources are almost inexhaustible. Smaller ship types like Escort Ship and destroyers don't need large Space Dock, so we can build as many as we can. As for space carriers, we'll build one first, and we must fill the hangar with Suicide Drone Fighter.
In short, we must have a fleet of a certain size before setting sail again. The principle is to build as many as we can, to the best of our ability.
Humans have been researching Tactical Armor, that's true, but Weapon Design Department are well aware that trying to fight with a single soldier piloting a mech is tantamount to suicide.
There's no need to do such tests. Just by calculating the energy level that the Tactical Armor can withstand, you can tell that it simply can't penetrate the outer shell defenses of a warship.
Moreover, it couldn't break through the layers of Escort Ship's defenses to get close to the main warships, whose defensive Laser Weapon were not to be underestimated.
Therefore, in human imagination, boarding combat is impossible, and the idea of a single player infiltrating an enemy warship is even more of a fantasy plot.
At least with the technology currently available to humanity, it is impossible for this to happen if a hypothetical enemy possesses the same technology.
In the past decade or so, in addition to breakthroughs in the military industry, humanity has also made progress to varying degrees in other fields of technology.
In the field of Biotechnology, although no other Life Elixir formula has been developed, after all, humans have only been in this galaxy for a little over ten years, not yet the fifty years that Yi Kai had confidently promised, but many progress has been made.
Examples include Anti-Cancer Factor Enhancer, Cell Activity Enhancer 1.0, Anti-Gravity Calcium Loss 2.0 Drug, Obesity Gene Expression Editing, and Gene Loss Repair Technology.
The emergence of all these drugs and technologies has enabled the physical condition of individuals to basically reach the peak level of normal people.
