Cai Ruichen's interest in the discovery of life in the universe far exceeded Milner's expectations, originally he thought that he would need to use a lot of language and data to make Cai Ruichen interested, but everything turned out to be beyond his imagination.

I didn't expect that the founders who were able to build a super technology empire like Future Technology Group would be so interested in such a topic as extraterrestrial life.

The most important thing is that Cai Ruichen's personal information has never been recorded in this regard, and before now, no one knew that Cai Ruichen was also interested in such a topic.

Milner was excited, but did not forget to promise Cai Ruichen, saying: "I am very welcome to join Dr. Cai to join the Cosmic Life Development Project, this plan is still in the stage of preparation and implementation, with Dr. Cai's help, we believe that we will be able to achieve results soon." ”

It's just that at this point, Milner seemed to remember something, and said with some embarrassment: "It's just that the content of this plan will be all open to the world, I don't know if Dr. Cai can agree to this." ”

When Milner was halfway through speaking, he also remembered that in addition to his rich knowledge, Cai Ruichen is also a big boss of a company, and many companies don't like this kind of information disclosure.

The most important thing is that he has not seen any R&D successes of the Future Technology Group, which is voluntarily disclosed to the public.

However, Cai Ruichen shook his head indifferently and said: "This is originally a project related to all mankind, and it is naturally open to the outside world. ”

This time Milner didn't have any problems at all, and he was very excited and almost had a bear hug with Cai Ruichen. Fortunately, he controlled it, just picked up the wine glass and touched it lightly with Cai Ruichen.

"Actually, I was very interested in the super radio telescope built by the Future Technology Group in southern Iraq. But it's quite exciting. Putting down the wine glass, Milner did not hide the slightest appreciation: "A radio telescope with a diameter of 1,000 meters, before this, I did not believe that such a huge radio telescope could be built in the world." Future Technology Group is really powerful. ”

When Cai Ruichen heard this, he didn't feel strange at all, as he had expected before he came. These people are still thinking about their Super Radio Telescopes.

On an occasion like today, even if you don't speak, the other party will take the initiative to speak.

And Milner came up with a plan to discover life in the universe. In addition to the Breakthrough Exploration Program of the Satellite Voyage to the Alpha System, there is another plan related to the radio telescope, that is, the Breakthrough Listening Program.

The Breakthrough Listening program is already underway, using the world's two largest radio telescopes currently in operation. One is located in West Virginia, USA. The Green Bank radio telescope with a diameter of 100 meters and the Parks radio telescope with a diameter of 64 meters in New South Wales, Australia.

The project, which is expected to cost $100 million and take 10 years, will scan the entire center of the Milky Way and the entire galactic plane, as well as conduct a comprehensive scan and study of the one million closest star systems to Earth and the 100 closest galaxies to Earth.

The ultimate goal of this project is to find evidence of life beyond the Earth, and at the same time, it is hoped that information and rays in the universe can be discovered. Trying to spot possible extraterrestrial signals.

The starting point of this plan was good, and Milner used all the connections and means. It is also impossible to make use of these two radio telescopes, at least the very large radio base stations of the United States, which are the equipment of the U.S. government's own space exploration program, for personal use.

In fact, the super radio telescope at the base is not to look for evidence of the existence of aliens in the universe, but to receive information from outside the earth when they leave the solar system in the future.

The base uses a super radio telescope to communicate with people on other planets in real time, which is to prepare for the immigration of the Red Guard Corps or alien planets.

Nowadays, the construction of the super radio telescope has already been completed, and for this reason, Cai Ruichen has also tightly sealed the entire radius of ten kilometers of the super radio telescope, and no electronic signals and personnel can get close.

Because once there is even the slightest signal interference, the work of the entire radio telescope will be greatly affected.

And the current super radio telescope is more just exploring this universe that is still extremely strange to human beings.

At present, there is no obvious purpose, and to put a super radio telescope with a diameter of 1,000 meters aside, it is simply a big waste, if all the institutions and individuals in the world who explore space know that this super radio telescope is more of an idle product, I am afraid that everyone wants to come to Cai Ruichen for the first time to fight hard, it is simply a tyrannical thing.

However, it's not that Cai Ruichen wants to waste such a good thing, but he doesn't have any exploration projects now, plus the scientists have just appeared in the military units of the base, and before that, Cai Ruichen didn't have a team of scientists, so he could only put it aside.

Cai Ruichen is still very interested in participating in the breakthrough listening program, after all, the research results obtained by his own super radio telescope alone are also limited, and if he can unite other countries or institutions to carry out a universe exploration program for all mankind, it will be a good event.

However, Europe has its own plans, and the U.S. government also has its own plans, and Cai Ruichen is also very clear that neither Europe nor the United States can easily share the results of previous explorations with him.

However, the cooperation between non-governmental organizations is different, after all, the position of the future technology group also belongs to individual enterprises, and there is no half-dime relationship with the government at all.

"I think this project should continue to expand its scale and influence, so that more people can participate, especially those individuals or laboratories who are also working the road of exploring life in the universe, should join forces and cooperate together, of course, such cooperation needs to be willing, because I also hope that all the exploration results will be made public." Cai Ruichen said very boldly.

"Our original plan was to get more people involved in the program, but I am afraid that the processing of the detected information and data will not be able to be done by SETI, a breakthrough distributed computing platform at the University of California alone." Milner said helplessly, the original plan was to attract more people to participate, but Cai Ruichen's plan was obviously more ambitious than him. (To be continued.) )
