Guide to Galactic Dominance

InSight.

As the original R19 fleet and now the only reconnaissance ship of the Iridium United Empire Space Force in this universe, Shuhei and his crew have been sailing in space for almost a month away from the Holy Falcon and Ruyi City. .

The main reconnaissance mission of InSight is to conduct reconnaissance in the solar system. Although it did not send crews to land on celestial bodies, it has a large number of drone reconnaissance drones that can withstand harsh environments. InSight has collected enough intelligence. Field investigations are naturally much stronger than inferences from astronomical observations on Earth. The intelligence sent back by InSight has overturned many observations on Earth.

InSight's detection of the planets in the solar system is by no means complete. In fact, each planet drops a swarm of drones, and InSight jumps to the next planet. Basically, the more useful information collected is what useful resources are available on each planet for Iridium to use.

For star system survey, one month is not a long time, that is, it only gives a rough idea. After completing the detection of the asteroids Pluto and Charon, Captain Shuhei turned off the phase jump engine, turned on the warp engine for the first time, and crossed the Kuiper Belt and Oort Nebula at a speed higher than Wrap5.4, heading for the distance The closest star system to our solar system is Alpha Centauri.

Here is the Trisolaris galaxy imagined by countless humans who look up at the stars but are still bound to the earth!

Long before setting off for Alpha Centauri, InSight had already detected this three-star system with astronomical observation methods that far exceeded those of Earth. All reconnaissance missions have several cores: exploring habitable planets and resource planets; discovering unseen anomalies on Iridium that are valuable for research; and encountering different cosmic civilizations.

Although the current population of Iridium is very small, after the Star Alliance is established, the Star Alliance can spread the population of the earth into other galaxies and establish new administrative star colonies. For Bai Zhongqi, the leader of Iridium, finding a habitable planet is now more important than the other two core tasks.

The R19 fleet does not have all the original technology of Iridium, and it will take a lot of work to make up for the technology tree. Even if a new anomaly is found, it may be difficult to allocate energy and resources to research it. When it comes to cosmic civilization, Bai Zhongqi is still more cautious. Although he is confident in the combat power of Iridium, after all, the empire's fleet is currently limited in size, and the earth has not yet been fully developed. When the Star Alliance has become a climate, Bai Zhongqi is not worried. Encounter some extremely vicious cosmic civilization.

As far as the earth's ecology is concerned, it is too much to bear a population of more than seven billion. Relying on technical means, there is no theoretical upper limit for the habitable population of a planet. However, the administrative stars of the Iridium United Empire generally do not allow planets the size of the Earth to have a population of more than 2 billion, causing excessive damage to the planet's ecology. Human impact and damage. Naturally, not all planets are like this. For example, the population of the Iridium home planet is not much less than that of the Earth.

Alpha Centauri is called a three-body system, but it is actually more like a 2+1 system. Alpha Centauri A and B are two stars that are almost the same as the sun. They interact strongly, but their volume, mass and brightness are far less than that of the sun. The third little brother star, Proxima Centauri, is more than 10,000 astronomical units away from Star A and Star B, which is larger than the radius of the planetary belt in the solar system. Coupled with its small mass, the impact on Star A and Star B will not be great.

In this three-body star system, the earth has not been able to determine any planet. Regarding the observation data of the three horizontal stars, except for the approximate number of light years from the sun, the other errors are basically very large, even very outrageous. Before InSight entered the Alpha Centauri system, the Iridium people had determined that there were a total of six planets in this star system, five of which were solid planets, one was a large gas planet, and the remaining asteroids, comets and other celestial bodies were not counted.

Shuhei and his crew have explored two Earth-like planets in the Alpha Centauri system. Neither of the two solid planets has anything special, at least to the Iridium people. One is a desert planet with a thick atmosphere. It is too close to Star A and has no signs of life. However, due to the density of the planet and the movement of the crust, it produces some relatively good minerals, especially those that can be used to produce photon computers and orientation. Crystals that power weapons. The other planet has no atmosphere, is relatively small in size, and has relatively single minerals, so its development value is not very great.

It wasn't until InSight arrived at the third planet of their trip, orbiting Star B and a planet in the habitable zone, that the Iridium Stars found the biggest gain of their trip.

This is a planet with green brilliance. Looking there from outer space, there is a vast ocean. Shuhei almost didn't need to send a probe down to determine that this was definitely a planet that could breed life. The fact was exactly what he thought. A large number of unmanned probes were sent to the planet and a large amount of intelligence information was quickly gathered.

Shuhei looked at the holographic light screen and was slightly surprised. This planet not only contains life, but also intelligent life, which is also a primate life similar to Earth and Iridium people. This Shuhei is not surprising. Intelligent life in human form is the largest race in the universe, and there are various hypotheses and theories to explain this phenomenon. It is generally believed that the primates have a common ancestor, and there is an unidentified "elder race", which is the original ancestor of mankind, and brought human genes to every corner of the universe.

Another hypothesis is more fatalistic, believing that among the intelligent races that can thrive and brew civilization on a habitable planet, only the primates are the most suitable. Therefore, as long as the planet with life moves forward, there is a high chance that primates will appear. civilization created by the nation.

Captain Yoshinobu also lamented: "Two galaxies so close to each other have actually given birth to intelligent creatures, both of which are human beings. This makes me have to believe in the hypothesis of the 'elder race'."

Shuhei is not interested in content such as space archeology. He said: "The natural environment on this planet is worse than that of the earth, and the level of civilization is much lower. Looking at the social form, I am afraid it is equivalent to the feudal era. At the end of the 1990s, it was far from entering the industrial age, so the productivity level here was very low and the population was not large. It seems that, like the earth, there are no obvious signs of interference by alien civilizations in the process of civilization. ."

Yuan Xin smiled and said: "Captain, as the first imperial captain to discover this planet, you have the right to name this planet."

Shuhei thought for a while and said: "I'm really not good at naming things, but this planet is green in color, which is rare among habitable planets, so let's call it Green Starfish."
