Voyage of the Stars

This view emphasizes that life is far from thermodynamic equilibrium. It injects higher-level energy from the environment, uses its free energy to maintain and develop life, and discharges lower-level energy to the environment. It is actually like extracting negentropic energy from the environment. converter.

This is an entropy reduction process.

In other words, the maintenance and development of life comes at the expense of an increase in environmental entropy. The essence of life's material and energy metabolism is to absorb negative entropy from the environment through the exchange of incoming and outgoing.

So what is entropy. The so-called entropy is a unit of thermodynamics, and its physical meaning is a measure of the degree of chaos in a system.

Obviously, this is a physical quantity defined by humans.

Shi Lifen used entropy to describe Yue Yuan's state, or to explain why humans don't understand what is going on with Yue Yuan's body now, indicating that she and her team should have discovered something, but there is no definite evidence yet, so she There was no way to say it openly.

Yue Yuan has also reached the level of a scientific researcher in various disciplines. When Shi Lifen said this sentence, he thought of many possibilities with just a few words.

Thinking of this, Yue Yuan slowly said: "Academician Shi, you are saying that my current situation is because of the unknown red color back then, which caused some kind of entropy to be planted in my life at a deep level. seed."

It is indeed inappropriate to say seeds, but Yue Yuan believes that Shi Lifen understands what he means.

Sure enough, the next moment, Shi Lifen nodded slightly. Her left hand was placed on her right arm, and her right hand touched her cheek. This action made her plump breasts somewhat deformed.

Zhu Pite, who was in a daze on the side, came to his senses.

"Well, it can be said that it is a kind of seed about entropy, but we think it is more appropriate to call it an anti-entropy factor."

"Inverse entropy factor"

"Yes, the anti-entropy factor." Shi Lifen pursed her lips and continued her previous actions: "I believe the president is familiar with the principles of our traditional life potions. Our traditional life potion genes change the original genes at the genetic level. The instinctive mechanism makes genetic factors no longer aim to perpetuate themselves through the next generation, but instead continue to renew themselves as the aim of perpetuating themselves.

This is why we often say that our life medicines 'cheat' the life genetic factors for how many years. Of course, from another perspective, the aging genes are suppressed. "

"But that's not the case with the president. Well, what I'm going to say next is just the most likely guess at this stage." Shi Lifen raised her eyebrows before speaking, which looked a bit like Yi Kai.

"We believe that the long body may have formed a counter-entropy factor in the deep layers of life due to the red gas of the year, and for some reason. Maybe it is the reason for our life energy level, maybe it is the reason for our life form, There may also be other reasons,

The anti-entropy factor did not fully exert its intended effect, but only reflected the effect of the traditional life potion at the genetic level. This means that no matter how we detect it, we can only detect that the effect of the life potion is still there.

As for the five hundred years, our expert group unanimously believes that it should be one of the factors that causes the surface gene expression effect of the inverse entropy factor in our life form. This factor is most likely related to our human life form and the energy level provided for survival. "

After saying so much, Shi Lifen paused for a moment, glanced at Zhu Pitt who was a little confused next to her, and continued: "It's unbelievable, but I have to admit that this seems to be a more advanced and profound life technology. , it truly connects thermodynamic units such as 'entropy' and 'negentropy' with life. It's hard to imagine how they achieved this technology."

"We don't know how to describe this technology from the genetic level, because it has transcended genes and is more like something that directly points to the essence of life. However, our human exploration of life still remains at the genetic level, and we don't even know how to describe it at the genetic level. We know how long it will take us to reach that level.

Yes, we do have many theories about 'life' and 'negative entropy', but they are just theories. We have not been able to verify the so-called 'negative entropy' and 'life' yet, and what is the essence of their correlation mechanism? , and what’s even more despairing is that ‘entropy’ is just a physical quantity we define,

We can't imagine how the civilization that produced that red gas actually turned this physical quantity into a physical object like "red gas." "

Shi Lifen's words made Yue Yuan fall into deep thought for a long time. He could understand the desire of scientific researchers to seek knowledge about unknown things, and also understand the despair when faced with a technological gap as wide as the abyss.

After a long time, Yue Yuan said: "So, if we continue to study according to our current life technology route, can we reach... Well, can we reach it? Or can we 'see' the kind of manufacturing you are talking about? The technology to develop the 'anti-entropy factor'?"

Arrive, reach, see.

Yue Yuan's rhetoric changed again and again, because with his scientific literacy, he could clearly feel the huge gap between the two. It really felt like there was a vast abyss of heaven lying in front of him.

"I don't know." Shi Lifen shook her head, with a slightly confused look on her face. Two seconds later, she opened her red lips again: "I really don't know. Our current life science research direction can be said to be deeply exploring genes, but we I don’t know if if we continue to dig, there will be a change from quantitative to qualitative changes. We don’t know what the end of this technological route will be.

And that technology that may be the 'anti-entropy factor' may be the result of a qualitative change in our existing life technology route, or it may be another technological route, a technological route that we have never tried. Maybe the civilization that created that kind of gas has a life form that is not carbon-based at all, or that is not a material form at all."

Shi Lifen knew about the spacecraft that crashed on Callisto, and of course she also knew about the remains of the alien creature on the spacecraft.

The remains have been confirmed to be some kind of mollusk.

If she knew it and still said this, it meant that she doubted that the civilization where the spaceship was located was not the civilization that produced that red gas at all.

Human beings have no way of knowing what the truth is, unless they encounter a civilization that uses red gas or something similar to red gas again, and then ask them, which may lead to clues.

In short, no matter what, humans will definitely not know what is happening to Yue Yuan's body in a short period of time.

As for the so-called ‘inverse entropy factor’.

At this time, Yue Yuan couldn't help but rang the awakener again. He thought to himself: It would be great if the awakener was here. The awakener should know what it is. Is there really such a thing as the anti-entropy factor? If so, does the individual life of the awakener have a so-called 'anti-entropy factor' to maintain their long life? Or something more advanced?

At that time, Chi Yan Civilization said that high-level civilizations and low-level civilizations use living planets in different ways. Did high-level civilizations study anti-entropy factors?

Could it be that the so-called universal life potion is actually some kind of creation that allows living bodies to possess anti-entropic factors?
