The Suddenly Appearing Warp Bubble
It is indeed reproducible. After careful investigation and optimization, the Experiment Group conducted several more experiments, each of which allowed the platinum plate to move a distance of 1.34 to 2.26 milliseconds.
Now they can confirm that this idea really works. Humans have indeed successfully used their self-made Warp Engine to displace objects, albeit only at the millimeter level. But at least they have managed to create a hole in that towering barrier that had almost driven humanity to despair.
Everything is difficult at the beginning. When computers were first invented, they were as big as a building!
Humanity needs to continue exploring along this gap, and one day they will be able to create Warp Engine capable of propelling warships. The 1.34-millimeter displacement proves that this path is feasible. As long as humanity continues to optimize the Warp Engine and uses large amounts of Antimatter as fuel, they will inevitably achieve their goal; this is already a certainty.
When the Warp experiment was successful.
After being verified by the New Government, the news spread throughout Human Civilization in just a few breaths. Almost instantly, this important news appeared in the streets and alleys of every Residential Spaceship within Human Civilization.
On every Residential Spaceship, the videos on the New Government's public channel and the various projected images on the streets and alleys were all turned into reports of the experiment's success.
The entire human race erupted in jubilation at that moment. People who had been suffocating under the Technology Barrier of Level 4 Civilization for years saw hope. The emotions that had been suppressed for so many years were suddenly released. Although they knew that this was not a true realization of the Grand Unified Theory, the Warp Engine was still Level 4 Civilization technology. Humanity had broken through that Technology Barrier.
The news of the successful Warp experiment made people understand and firmly believe that the path humanity is on now is correct, the decision to build Astronomical-Level Particle Collider is correct, and that as long as we continue to work hard, humanity will surely master the Grand Unified Theory.
This news is incredibly exciting, especially given the long delay in discovering Grand Unified Theory. It's like a shot in the arm for all of Human Civilization. All the previous skepticism about Astronomical-Level Particle Collider has vanished, as have the pessimistic voices about humanity's future.
Similarly, after spreading among humans, the message also reached the Crimson Flame Civilization, the Nair People, the Dog-Headed People, and the Kuntai People through human Network System.
Originally, humanity simply wanted to share its achievements with these few Affiliated Races by spreading the news, but the effect was better than expected.
Especially within the Crimson Flame Civilization.
According to their scientists, reaching the Level 4 Civilization heaven, yet humanity has managed to create Warp Engine without mastering the Grand Unified Theory, which is completely illogical.
It was this understanding that made the scientists of the Crimson Flame Civilization admire Human Civilization from the bottom of their hearts for the first time, because they believed that if the Crimson Flame Civilization were to do it on its own, even with Astronomical-Level Particle Collider, it would not be able to accomplish such a feat.
This is a shot in the arm, a shot in the arm for Human Civilization and the several races that are subordinate to Human Civilization.
A great race, a race blessed by the universe, a race of unparalleled wisdom—titles that even humans find somewhat shameful circulate among the Crimson Flame Civilization, the Nair People, and the Kuntai People.
At this moment, the mental outlook of these races seemed to change, especially in their attitude towards Human Civilization. When Human Civilization was mentioned, their attitude changed from one of 'some reluctance' to one of 'admiration and reverence'.
At this moment, their scientific team seemed to have their hearts set on humanity.
Because humanity has not fully implemented the strategy of Mind Imprint, especially when dealing with scientists from various races, these Affiliated Races' scientific teams were not particularly fond of humans in the past. However, this situation seems to have changed now.
Every individual dedicated to scientific research tried every means to obtain specific details about the successful Warp Engine experiment of Human Civilization through various channels. Scientists who had previously criticized their race's government officials as traitors and refused to join the research team could no longer contain themselves and began to take action, either using their personal connections to obtain detailed information or simply joining the Research Team directly.
Humanity never expected that this news would cause such a stir among the various Affiliated Races.
This is certainly a good thing.
In this environment, Yue Yuan came to the laboratory Command Center again to review the experiment and the various core data of the experiment.
In a society that prioritizes technology, every technology that drives human progress should be valued.
"Chief, this is all the data on the Warp Engine, and here is all the data from the experiment, including video footage. Please take a look here."
Guided by his entourage, Yue Yuan turned his gaze to a large screen in the experimental operation center, where he saw the process of the platinum plate shifting.
In the video, Yue Yuan saw a magical scene unfold on the platinum plate the moment the Warp Engine prototype entered its preset operating value. The platinum plate, which had been quietly suspended in the Gravity Environment, suddenly became blurry, as if it had been covered by a semi-transparent, flowing dome.
At this moment, visually, the platinum sheet appears to be stretched and deformed, with one end elongated and the other end compressed.
That's the visual effect, but Yue Yuan, who has a good understanding of science, knows that the platinum sheet did not deform at all. What deformed was the front and back ends of the semi-transparent cover surrounding it. Scientists call that suddenly appearing cover-like thing Warp Bubble.
In each successful experiment, a seemingly unsightly cover appears around the platinum plate. It is a barrier formed by spatial distortion, and according to the data from the Warp laboratory, its function is to protect the platinum plate inside the Warp Bubble from the influence of external spatial distortion.
"How slow down is the video?" Yue Yuan asked, looking at the Warp Bubble in the video.
"That instant was captured by a high-definition dynamic camera at 3,600 times the speed and 90,000 frames per second. We could have continued to increase the slow-motion magnification, and we also have more advanced shooting equipment, but it was useless," the Research Personnel replied.
Yue Yuan nodded, understanding what the Research Personnel meant. In this scene, the moment the Warp Bubble appeared from nothing was slowed down to the equivalent of stretching one second to an hour, but he still didn't see any process of the Warp Bubble appearing.
The Warp Bubble surrounding the platinum sheet appears to have instantly filled the space around it. Research Personnel say that even increasing the slow-motion magnification doesn't change the effect; the same result is observed. This indicates that the Warp Bubble isn't a real bubble, but rather a phenomenon that occurs during the Warp displacement of the platinum sheet.
These images and materials are absolute core technical secrets and are generally not made public like news of a 'successful experiment'.
"Well, what are your plans for the next step? Optimize the experiment and expand the experimental subjects, or..." After looking around for a while, Yue Yuan turned to Yu Nanfeng on his right and said.
"Continuing to experiment with different subjects is not very meaningful, but the optimization of the Warp Engine definitely needs to be done. But I think that's not the point. The point is whether we can find clues to the Grand Unified Theory by working backward from the phenomenon of 'platinum Warp displacement'," Yu Nanfeng replied earnestly.
Humanity has obtained a lot of experimental data from Astronomical-Level Particle Collider. In his view, Warp Speed Travel technology should only be realized after the Grand Unified Theory is achieved. The reason why humans were able to make it in the laboratory is naturally due to the disassembly of that Warp Engine. Therefore, he believes that some clues to the Grand Unified Theory are hidden in this Warp.
