Chapter 300: Spaceship of an Unknown Civilization

"Commander Yue, Deputy Man, look, this is the picture taken by our detector." The scientific officer tapped the keyboard in front of him a few times, transferred the picture to the central large screen, and turned around and pointed at the large screen and said: "The electromagnetic wave signal should be sent by these spaceships. Judging from the behavioral logic of the detector AI, our detector should have stopped moving at this time."

The detector mentioned by the scientific officer is a detection spaceship, which is about the size of a large transport plane. It is no different from a dust in the empty space. The reason why it was discovered should be because of the bright tail flame and the fact that the two sides were too close.

At this moment, Yue Yuan looked up at the large screen, so he frowned slightly: "Well, it seems to be a detector of a certain civilization, but why is it so big?"

In the picture displayed on the screen, there are three spaceships that are much larger than human detectors. From the comprehensive analysis of human detectors using optical remote sensing technology and the length of their tail flames in the picture, these three spaceships are probably much larger than aircraft carriers.

According to human understanding of the structure and use of spaceships and warships, a spaceship of this size is definitely not a warship, but if it is a detector, it is a bit big.

"Commander Yue, Director Gao Kun believes that these three spacecraft are likely to be manned exploration spacecraft, or some kind of space patrol spacecraft." The scientific officer replied.

"Where is Gao Kun?" Yue Yuan asked again.

"He is coming over. The linguists and secret scientists have also begun to analyze and decipher the signal." The scientific officer hesitated and asked: "Commander Yue, should the fleet slow down?"

"Don't worry, the situation is unclear now. Let's wait until the electromagnetic wave signal is deciphered." Yue Yuan shook his head. However, as soon as he finished speaking, he also pondered. Although it is not easy to act rashly when the situation is unclear, some preparations can still be made.

After pondering for a moment, Yue Yuan said to the communicator: "Pass the message to the duty officer of the first fleet, and order him to release detectors to the surrounding starry sky again, and be sure to do a good job of early warning."

"Yes!" The communicator at the work station responded.

After that, Yue Yuan called Zhu Pite again. Without waiting for the other party to be polite, he said directly: "Pite, order you and other security soldiers to do a good job in social security, strengthen internal vigilance, and cooperate with the internal affairs department to wake up the hibernating personnel in the scientific community."

"Received!" Zhu Pite also responded.

"Yes!" After hanging up Zhu Pite's communication, Yue Yuan summoned the duty chiefs of various departments of the new government and asked them to start waking up the hibernating personnel in various departments.

After notifying them all, Yue Yuan turned his head and said to Man Yuemei next to him: "Deputy Man, you should also notify the awakening of the important personnel and soldiers of the Second Fleet."

Man Yuemei said: "Okay!"

The human fleet is currently about three light years away from the target star system. According to normal navigation procedures, it is far from the time to wake up a large number of hibernating personnel. Therefore, now including the various departments of the new government, the First Fleet, and the Second Fleet, most of them are only in charge of the duty chiefs.

And now when encountering emergencies, it is natural to wake up the personnel. Civilians can take a break, but scientists in various fields, new government officials, commanders of various types of spacecraft, captains of various warships, soldiers, etc. cannot wait.

After a series of orders were issued, Yue Yuan's eyes were back on the big screen, carefully staring at the three unknown spacecraft on the screen.

All three spacecrafts were dragging long tail flames, indicating that the technological level of the unknown civilization behind the spacecraft was not ridiculously high, at least it was still within the scope of human cognition.

And from the situation of these three spacecraft entering the field of vision of the detector, this unknown civilization did not master warp speed navigation. Because humans have seen the scene of warp speed spacecraft appearing in the database of Kuntai civilization, the situation of the spacecraft suddenly appearing and then the image retreating did not appear, indicating that the unknown civilization behind these three spacecraft did not have the means of superluminal navigation.

The main reason why Yue Yuan was so calm was that he read this information from the picture.

As for why the three spacecrafts in the picture now spewed out such a long tail flame, Yue Yuan judged that they should be slowing down.

A civilization that does not have the means of superluminal navigation must be surprised to suddenly find a probe team that does not belong to its own civilization in the universe, so it is normal to slow down and initiate communication.

And those who can make such a direct judgment may really be as Gao Kun said, these three spaceships are manned.

"I hope the unknown civilization behind these three spaceships understands the communication method of cosmic civilization." Yue Yuan looked at the big screen, raised his hand and touched his stubble, thinking in his heart.

Humans still know the AI ​​they have created very well. The probe team should brake and stop when encountering such a situation.

If the unknown civilization behind the three spaceships on the opposite side knows the communication and exchange rules between civilizations, they should wait patiently instead of attacking directly.

Due to the information delay caused by the vast space scale, the human fleet has no idea about the situation of the probe team one light year away at this moment. Because the picture Yue Yuan saw at this moment was almost a year ago.

Fortunately, the pictures sent back by the probe are continuous. As long as there is an accident, the human fleet can receive it one year later. Well, as the fleet continues to sail forward, the time difference is less than a year, about eleven months and twenty days.

As time goes by, the picture on the big screen gradually changes.

First of all, it can be judged that the three spacecraft are indeed slowing down. The human probe team is also slowing down. According to the data of various instruments of the probe, the two sides are only about 5,000 to 6,000 kilometers apart at this moment, and they are gradually approaching each other as time goes by.

It is impossible to wake up scientists from hibernation in various fields all at once, not to mention that they still need to adapt for a while after waking up.

So at this moment, there are not many people in the entire Tianqin Command Center, and even the personnel in front of the rows of work platform computers are scattered, and standing in the hall looking at the big screen are only Yue Yuan, Manyuemei and the duty scientific officer.

However, Yue Yuan has nothing to do, so he just looks at the big screen. He hopes to get more information about the civilization to which the unknown spacecraft belongs before the big guys arrive.

And the situation in the picture did not disappoint him. Yue Yuan, who stared at the big screen for a long time, finally caught another important information.

As the probe gradually approached, Yue Yuan saw that the tail flames of the three warships that were slowing down had changed. The long and bright tail flames were mixed with flashes of light.

If I guessed correctly, it should be the tail flame phenomenon produced by the operation of the cold nuclear pulse thruster. In other words, the civilization to which these three spacecraft belonged was most likely a Level 2 civilization!
