Dismantling the Warp Engine

In an atmosphere where human technology reigns supreme, human scientific teams and extraterrestrial teams are shining brightly in their respective fields. They may focus their efforts on Warp Bubble, Tachyon, or other related areas, such as the mass change problem caused by string vibrations, the environmental problems arising from the Higgs Mechanism that erases experimental changes, and the physical manifestations of the Strong Force, Weak Force, and Electromagnetic Force in specific environments during astronomical particle collisions, etc.

Scientific research has expanded in breadth, which has led to the participation of many teams in various types of projects, including the scientific teams that were studying the boundaries of this space more than ten light-years away.

After learning about the progress humanity has made in exploring the Grand Unified Theory, scientists are also trying to use other theories to explain the boundary problem of this space, attempting to unravel its secrets.

Of course, being a creation of Level Six Civilization, they ultimately failed, but it opened up a new line of thought. For example, they believed that there should be a magical membrane at the boundary of this space, a membrane that marks the edge of spacetime, the place where space itself ends.

This point has been supported by many scientists. In fact, in String Theory, space cannot be terminated without D-Membrane, but it is actually a very successful theory.

Various theories have contradictions. For example, String Theory mentions Twenty-Six Dimensions, while Superstring Theory only mentions 11. The universe cannot be both Twenty-Six Dimensions and 11 dimensions, so one of the two theories must be wrong. However, being wrong does not mean it should be completely rejected, because it also contains correct descriptions of the universe.

From the moment scientists opened up new perspectives, humanity finally ended a long period of scientific silence and entered an era of lively debates and discussions on various theories and predictions.

The arrival of this era, regardless of whether each new theory or prediction is right or wrong, will undoubtedly be of great benefit to human research.

Sure enough, after half a century of arduous struggle and countless Astronomical-Level Particle Collision Experiment, humanity has finally taken another step forward in the research process of the Grand Unified Theory.

A scientific team has discovered a phenomenon called Mass Potential Well, a physical phenomenon based on the D-Membrane concept and the Higgs Mechanism. Researchers found that a Mass Potential Well effect occurs in Astronomical-Level Particle Collision Experiment.

This effect, based on the Higgs Mechanism, is closely related to the Black D-brane process. They believe that the Mass Potential Well is the reason for the spacetime distortion exhibited during the formation of the Black D-brane; it does not exhibit the large mass of a celestial body because it is itself a phenomenon equivalent to Energy Potential Well.

This discovery has led scientists to widely believe that humanity has uncovered the secret of Warp Speed Travel.

Based on this discovery, scientists even designed their own Warp Engine —well, a concept version. To turn this concept into reality, scientists jointly proposed dismantling the Warp Engine that had been stored in a human warehouse for who knows how many years— the Warp Engine that humans obtained from an unknown Alien Civilization spaceship at the Callisto Base.

It's embarrassing to admit, but this engine, which we've had for who knows how many years, has been with humanity since the Primitive Civilization. Even by the time we reached Level 3 Civilization, we still haven't figured out its internal structure, let alone been able to replicate it.

Scientists and engineers have proposed disassembling and studying it, but the New Government has rejected these proposals because, prior to this, humanity's understanding of Warp Engine was far too limited, and disassembling it without understanding it would be a waste of time and resources.

However, things are different now. Although humanity has not formally developed Grand Unified Theory, it has made unexpected progress in Warp drive research in a very miraculous way, and has even produced a concept version of Warp Engine at this point in time.

In this situation, the New Government will certainly not stick to old ways.

Therefore, after the application was submitted, the Warp Engine that had accompanied humanity for countless years was finally brought to the test bench and, under the watchful eyes of many scientists and engineers, was disassembled little by little.

Humanity's perspective has changed. What was once merely a matter of speculation— the Warp Engine —is now almost certainly a creation of Level 4 Civilization. In other words, the Alien Civilization that crashed on Callisto was backed by a Level 4 Civilization.

Level 4 Civilization, a level that was once beyond human reach, is now a level that humanity has begun to strive towards.

With the technology and theories of Level 3 Civilization at their peak, coupled with humanity's understanding of this Warp Engine over thousands of years, disassembling the Warp Engine did not encounter too many difficulties; it was just a bit troublesome.

As each component was removed by humans using various methods, the internal structure of this creation belonging to Level 4 Civilization gradually came into human view.

"That's ingenious! I never imagined it would be like that."

"I see!"

"Incredible! This structure is simply ingenious!"

"Antimatter Annihilation Chamber Energy Transfer Unit... Hmm, could this be the Warp Bubble Generator? Strange, Warp Bubble are generated separately?"

"It's ingenious! How come we didn't think of that structure or design?"

During the dismantling of the Warp Engine, a group of scientists and engineers expressed their heartfelt opinions. Amidst these exclamations of surprise and astonishment, and discussions about its structure and various components, the Warp Engine was reduced to individual parts.

Time has left indelible marks on this Warp Engine. Human engineers initially thought it was still usable, but after disassembling it, they realized it was definitely not up to par. Not only the Warp Engine itself, but also the seemingly intact fuel storage tanks were likely no longer functional.

Time erodes everything.

However, humanity does not feel regret, because there is still a lot to learn from this Warp Engine, such as its structure, layout, and the design philosophy behind it.

With the completion of the disassembly and in-depth study of its various components and layout, humanity once again felt the difference between its conceptual engine design and the creations of a true Level 4 Civilization. This engine, even though it was covered in the marks of time, still allowed humanity to experience what exquisite craftsmanship and mechanical engineering truly meant.

Compared to this creation of a Level 4 Civilization, the concept engine that humans developed themselves is simply crude and shoddy, completely incomparable.
