In the universe, different perspectives revealed different things.
The simplest and most intuitive distinction was between the macroscopic and the microscopic.
From the perspective of a galaxy, the Alpha Star System was merely a tiny point—one of the hundreds of billions of star systems within the Robert Galaxy.
From a microscopic perspective, however, the Alpha Galaxy before her was as vast as the Ganges' innumerable grains of sand, a massive collection of particles whose number was terrifying.
From the perspective of big data, the Alpha Galaxy before her was covered by countless "astronomical models." These tens of thousands of varieties of "astronomical phenomena" formed the "Pillar of Wisdom."
Gao Yuanyuan knew about the "Pillar of Wisdom." It was a massive nebula located thousands of light-years away. The nebula was enormous, with a volume roughly equivalent to ten thousand star systems. This made observation extremely convenient—even a radio telescope from a Type I civilization could observe it directly.
The Alpha civilization was also an "astronomical civilization." This tradition of worshiping astronomical phenomena had been passed down from ancient times into the modern era. Even after entering the interstellar age, they had not abandoned it. Instead, they had developed it to an even greater degree.
It was said that within their star system, every planet, every satellite, and even the meteorite belts were equipped with large numbers of third-order interstellar observatories, which were used to observe and simulate astronomical phenomena.
Of course, this also meant that any outside invader would face nearly omnipresent surveillance and would find it almost impossible to remain concealed.
The number of players' starships and spacecraft that had been destroyed was enough to prove this.
That was why they had been so furious when the Speaker of their Lower House was assassinated, even launching a brutal internal purge.
