I have a question. Even if this bubble world is only 3,000 miles away, if it keeps going to one place, the space it digs out will not offset its own space. That is, it will not lose space when it moves outward as a whole. So why bother with any adventures or wars? We can just work together to dig out. . So is it really a problem of gravity? Because there is gravity, it cannot move? Gravity is at the center of the earth, right? This bubble world is also at the center of the earth, so it will move back little by little... Is there a scientific explanation? I want to know if this is correct
Heading towards the mountains
The evolution of every civilization is like climbing a mountain, but some mountains are high and some are short. Liu has written about many alien civilizations, such as the civilization living in the center of the earth in this book. The planet they are on is about the same size as the earth, but the core of the earth is empty, and they live in the empty core. Because the physical environment is too complex, the development of their scientific theories is much more difficult than that of human civilization. It took one hundred thousand years of exploration to see gases and liquids from the earth's core to the ocean and then to the air. That's why Feng Fan had a conversation with them: "It's really not easy. You have gone through such a long period of exploration to reach our starting point." "So, you are a very lucky civilization." Another thing that I find very novel is the understanding of "liquid" in this earth's core civilization. As a civilization born with only solids in its environment, every property of liquid surprised them, and they named it "Invisible Rock". Personally, I think the name "Invisible Rock" is really unique. It is based on the "rock" they are most familiar with, combined with the characteristics of liquids in their eyes, and finally formed this name. Apart from science fiction, this is actually a novel with profound thoughts, such as the repeatedly mentioned "Mountains are everywhere, and we are all still at the foot of the mountains."
"The universe is a bigger bubble world!"
"There are always people climbing the mountain."
In fact, people have already guessed something similar to the idea of soaking in the world. I was just confused about it before, but now I feel that I suddenly understand it a lot. Liu's books are all very good!
good
The writing is so good. Mountains are everywhere. When we reach the top of a mountain, we come to the foot of another mountain.
Very good. I recommend watching it. It refreshes your understanding of the universe.
profound
Tell a simple but profound truth with a wonderful and shocking story
The imagination of the bubble is really wonderful and comfortable.
I can already imagine that world
