After several attempts, Lü Yongchang gradually figured out the "switch" for this anomalous spacetime structure.
Simply put, whenever the survey ship's warp drive operated at between 43.8% and 49.7% output, the structure could appear in this region of space.
But the test results showed that the spacetime structure was most stable only when the warp drive's output was at 46.2%.
Too low, and it became "blurred." Too high, and it became "distorted."
Humanity really had been incredibly lucky!
After discovering this pattern, Lü Yongchang could not help marveling at their luck.
The first survey ship to disappear, 129C, needed little explanation. Its warp drive's output had happened to fall within that range as it passed through the area.
As for the second survey ship to disappear, 1531C, the circumstances spoke for themselves.
The survey ship had been accelerating at full power. A second earlier or later, and human civilization would have missed this miraculous spacetime structure entirely.
The investigation of the anomalous spacetime structure officially began.
One survey ship used its warp drive to stabilize the structure's existence, while another conducted a comprehensive scan of the surrounding spacetime.
For the time being, Lü Yongchang abandoned the idea of sending a survey ship into this distorted Klein bottle.
After all, judging by what had happened to the previous two survey ships, it would be a one-way trip.
Until he unraveled the mysteries behind this distorted Klein bottle, Lü Yongchang had no intention of continuing such pointless waste.
Earth calendar year 4402.
The scientific research vessels and engineering ships dispatched from the Kepler-452 Stellar System successfully reached this Dead Silent Region.
Through the combined efforts of the engineering ships and robots, a ring-shaped research project was built around the anomalous spacetime structure.
It included a Grand Unified Field Generator with finer
