Chapter 1697: Chapter 667: Where There Is Light, There Is Shadow—The Hundred Thousand Layers Upon the Source Sun [4000 Words]
The most interesting part of science is that many great discoveries often come from moments of inadvertence.
Of course, this so-called inadvertence is not purely accidental but still stems from past accumulation.
Without accumulation, even if you stand at the entrance of a treasure-filled cave, you cannot shout "Open Sesame."
The Starry Sky Red Blade Armor continues its orbital movement around the Ancient Disk Black Hole, maintaining relative stillness with the Source Sun. The Space Detector still locks onto the position of the Stationary Subspace, continuously scanning and probing.
New data is being collected continuously, then sent to the research starship led by Yang Misi, and further integrated and dissected by the newly established focused research project group for targeted analysis.
Others are busy, but Ren Zhong is not relaxed either. Not only does he co-lead the entire project group with Yang Misi, but he is also the sole frontline experimenter.
Intelligent robots can help him complete most sampling work and can be sufficiently precise, but Ren Zhong also makes some proactive changes on site.
He has never been one to sit and wait for others to assign tasks to him.
Even though this project’s leader is Yang Misi, reliable enough and comprehensive in considering issues, his attitude remains the same.
The research focus proposed by Yang Misi is to find the energy supply path for the Stationary Subspace.
Once the energy source upon which this subspace relies is clarified, the subsequent in-depth analysis and even opening it naturally follow.
Yang Misi’s idea is correct, and the project group on the starship has been steadily progressing along this direction.
However, Ren Zhong observed that after a burst of updates, the data collected by devices like the Space Detector inevitably degraded into monotonous repetition.
Ren Zhong believed that if one were to maintain such a level of repetitive surveying and wait passively for changes, who knows how many years it would take to see results.
Meanwhile, Jin Shi has been at the Empire Core for a while. Sun Ai’s auxiliary brain is still operating, but there’s no news from Jin Shi herself, and the promised new appointment is also nowhere to be seen. It’s unclear what her situation is.
Although Ren Zhong had met Jin Shi only a few times, just barely acquaintances, Jin Shi always extended a helping hand when he needed assistance. Ren Zhong felt he should look into it both emotionally and logically.
So, he was anxious.
After long contemplation, Ren Zhong proposed another idea.
He believed that by observing the interactions between the Stationary Subspace and other matter in the universe, it could be indirectly qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed for the characteristics of a Static Level Subspace.
"Based on previous observations, I first hypothesize that the anomaly of the lifespan of celestial bodies in the Ancient Disk Galaxy is precisely due to the cycle phenomenon originating from quasars, then its influencing factors spread linearly like light. The location of this Static Level Subspace is exactly between the quasar and the Source Sun. So, when the influencing factors of this cycle phenomenon spread here, whether it’s absolutely linear particle-state matter or light wave characteristics with wave-particle duality, they would be interfered by the Stationary Subspace."
"By observing the subtle differences between the Source Sun and other stars in the region, one can simultaneously enhance understanding of both the cycle phenomenon and the Stationary Subspace. Simply put, it’s about first observing the shadow cast on the Source Sun by the Stationary Subspace during the quasar cycle phenomenon, then studying the characteristics of the subspace itself through shadow analysis."
This was the original conversation between Ren Zhong and Yang Misi.
Yang Misi did not oppose it.
Ren Zhong immediately took action.
The top hatch of the Starry Sky Red Blade Armor opened several launch ports, and several newly synthesized Constant Star Probes left this giant "War Armor" akin to a Planet Ship under the drag of intelligent Flying Devices, heading straight for the Source Sun.
At the same time, in the Hundred Clusters Star Domain, hundreds of Constant Star Probes also launched simultaneously, heading to different stars.
In the previous conclusions, Ren Zhong speculated that when the cycle phenomenon occurred, the solid matter like planets within the Ancient Disk Galaxy was destroyed, yet stars received material supplementation.
This time, he wanted to study how many times the cycle phenomenon had occurred and what differences existed between the Source Sun and other stars.
About three months passed, and after a large amount of data computation, the research starship finally began to provide accurate results.
Firstly, the number of times the cycle phenomenon occurred is ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine times, almost stacking the stars within the Ancient Disk Galaxy into a hundred thousand layers like pancakes.
