Chapter 52: The Rotating Black Hole
Chapter 52: The Rotating Black Hole
On the "rune plates" deployed by the Twelve Nations Alliance's Holy Domain Fleet, shadowy "runes" flowed and then rapidly rotated, violently absorbing energy from the folded space. This energy gradually accumulated and strengthened on the "rune plates," then was quickly channeled into the densely deployed divine cannons. These divine cannons fired simultaneously, creating an energy torrent that swept through the Earth's warships like a gentle breeze, destroying a large number of village-level assault ships, town-level frigates, county-level cruisers, and city-level patrol motherships. The town-level Rutan and the county-level Sirius sniper ships were also badly damaged. After discovering the enemy's sudden disappearance, the Earth's warships had already activated their intelligent energy shields, but even so, they could not stop this powerful energy torrent. Nearly three million Earth's warships were destroyed, a devastating loss. However, the most fortunate thing was that the human soldiers on the small and medium-sized warships had been teleported to the large and giant warships in advance, so no humans were killed.
After the Alliance fleet's successful sneak attack, the Netherworld Fleet sent out a "Space Fold Enhancement Wave" to move the entire Alliance fleet within the folded space. This method was like a mouse constantly lurking and moving in a hidden compartment, making it impossible for the Earth's human fleet to know their location.
After moving through the folded space, the Alliance fleet used "Spellplates," divine cannons, and the annihilation of both positive and negative dark matter to launch continuous sneak attacks. By the time human warships opened fire in the direction of the attacks, the Alliance fleet had already vanished. After several such attacks, the Earth's human warships were reduced to only large and colossal vessels. These warships, protected by powerful intelligent energy shields, withstood the powerful impact of the energy torrents. These warships and the lunar fortresses also conducted several random intelligent energy beam attacks into the surrounding space, but they seemed unable to hit any of the enemy warships, all missing their targets. The fleet near the three-dimensional iron triangle star originally intended to aid the main fleet near the sun of Tab's planet, but was stopped by the Iron Curtain. Their assistance would be futile and would only result in the loss of more warships.
If the problem of "not being able to see" the enemy cannot be solved, human warships are likely to be completely wiped out.
After an emergency call between Tie Mu and Zhou Yuan, he immediately ordered: "Retreat, all retreat! All warships and the moon, retreat to the vicinity of Agate Star through the portal. After the retreat, activate this space portal to teleport to the star. The 78th Fleet, leave behind five Continent-class Hercules-class sniper ships, controlled by artificial intelligence, and disperse them to fly 200 million kilometers away from the sun of Tab Star."
As a result, the lunar fortress and the remaining human warships were all teleported to the vicinity of Agate Star through various portals near the sun of Tab.
"Immediately activate the portal near the Sun on Tab Star and notify the 19th, 26th, 74th, and 83rd fleets waiting to be teleported to stars during interstellar travel, and instruct them to begin teleporting to massive stars."
"Yes."
"Once the four stars arrive, immediately dispatch five Hercules-class sniper ships to destroy the five stars in this space!"
"Understood, sir."
When the Alliance fleet discovered that the human warships had also disappeared and was preparing to activate the Deep Space Darkness Enhancement Detection, the Tab Star system suddenly experienced a violent gravitational oscillation.
In this star system, five suns appeared. Due to the intervention of four new suns, the speed of light in this space suddenly decreased, and the folded space was straightened and rolled up. However, under the long-range attack of the intelligent energy beams from five human Hercules-class sniper ships, the five massive suns collapsed. These five suns first emitted enormous gravitational waves, followed by a powerful gamma-ray burst approximately 0.4 seconds later, and then emitted X-rays, visible light, and radio waves. The five suns bombarded by the long-range intelligent energy beams quickly formed five stellar black holes!
The Alliance fleet was still trapped in the distorted space, trying to escape, but the folds were constantly shifting due to the gravity of the five suns, keeping them inside. As the five black holes formed, the immense gravity tore the space apart, creating numerous spatial rifts, much like earthquake cracks. Many Alliance warships fell into these gravitational rifts and were torn to shreds, leaving not a single atomic remnant.
Even more terrifying scenes followed. Because the five stellar black holes were not very far apart, they engaged in a gravitational battle. A black hole formed from a large star swallowed two nearby smaller black holes. The black hole formed from the Sun's star at Tubbus was swallowed by another, the largest stellar black hole. According to the principle that the surface area of a black hole's event horizon never decreases, the area of the merged black hole would not be less than the sum of the areas of the original two black holes. The two merging black holes then engaged in a gravitational struggle, seemingly evenly matched, thus forming a binary black hole system that attracts and rotates with each other.
A series of gravitational battles had already torn all the warships of the Twelve Nations Alliance fleet to shreds, and the Twelve Nations Alliance fleet was completely erased from this space without leaving a trace.
After firing their intelligent energy beams, the five Hercules-class sniper ships had already arrived near Agate Star through the portal.
After leaving a portal and an AI-piloted escort warship near Agate Star, the main force of the Earth Empire fleet had already left the space of this binary black hole system through the Agate Star portal and the portal to a nearby star.
After leaving the space of the binary black hole system, the massive interstellar fleet composed of 36 Earth human fleets led by Iron Curtain did not return to the three new Earths, but was directly teleported to the vicinity of the 19th Fleet, which was traveling in interstellar space. The 19th Fleet had just teleported a massive star to the Tab system.
In this battle between Earth's humans and the Galactic Alliance, the Galactic Alliance lost over 300 million warships, while Earth's humans lost nearly 5 million warships and sacrificed over 2 million soldiers.
In the year 357 of the Galactic Era, using a portal left behind by Earth's humans near a binary black hole system, the Earth Empire's fleet and the Imperial Academy of Sciences dispatched warships and scientists to conduct a series of scientific studies on the system. Through their research, humanity indeed discovered dark matter, gaining a deeper understanding of rotating black holes.
Dark matter is a type of matter that cannot be detected by current human detection methods on Earth. It can only be detected through gravitational interactions. Scientists near this binary black hole system believe that black holes are the ideal location for studying dark matter and dark energy.
Scientists have discovered that dark matter can interact with its surroundings through gravity, allowing them to calculate its scale. Black holes appear to make dark matter glow. Black holes are surrounded by vast swarms of dark matter, and when dark matter particles collide, they release large amounts of gamma rays, which scientists can then detect using gamma-ray telescopes.
The universe is expanding at an accelerating rate. What force is causing all galaxies and other matter to move away at an accelerated pace? Scientists call this repulsive force, the opposite of gravity, "dark energy." Dark energy is the driving force behind the accelerated expansion of the universe. The expansion of the universe is in balance between two opposing forces, like yin and yang. One force is gravity, which slows down the expansion, while the other powerful counterforce is dark energy, which accelerates the expansion of the universe.
The motion of the universe is vortex-like, so dark energy always appears in the form of vortex motion. Within the rotational range of dark energy, a vortex field can be formed, called the dark energy vortex field, or simply the vortex field.
The ubiquity of dark energy makes it difficult for people to perceive its existence. Unlike matter, dark energy is uniformly distributed and does not clump together in any one place. Whether in a kitchen or in interstellar space, the density of dark energy is exactly the same, a few hydrogen atoms per cubic meter. All the dark energy in the Tarbus galaxy combined is roughly the mass of a small asteroid, almost negligible in the planetary "dance." The influence of dark energy only becomes apparent on vast spatial scales and temporal spans.
In summary, dark matter is a self-attracting gravitational force, while dark energy is a self-repelling repulsive force (negative pressure tension). The self-attraction of dark matter explains the composition of the universe, while the self-repulsion of dark energy explains its expansion.
The Sirius stellar black hole, artificially created by humans on Earth, is a Schwarzschild black hole (a static black hole). This binary black hole system is a high-speed, mutually orbiting Kerr black hole.
Compared to the static Schwarzschild black hole, the Kerr black hole is closer to the actual physical black hole because most stars have a certain amount of rotational angular momentum, which they retain when they collapse into a black hole.
At the outermost layer of a Kerr black hole, due to the dragging effect of rotation on the surrounding spacetime, there exists a static interface for determining whether an object can remain stationary in spacetime.
Within this interface, a horizon exists, similar to that of a static Schwarzschild black hole, but it is more complex because here, the horizon is divided into an inner horizon and an outer horizon. The outer horizon is the boundary between the object and the outside world, while the inner horizon is the boundary between whether the singularity's singular properties can affect the outside world. In a Kerr black hole, the outer horizon shrinks with increasing angular velocity, while the inner horizon expands with increasing angular velocity (consider the force changes on an object moving in an orbit resulting from the combined application of Newton's law of gravity and angular velocity). When the inner and outer horizons coincide, both horizons disappear simultaneously, revealing a naked singularity in spacetime.
The Kerr spacetime created by the rotation of a Kerr black hole is composed of cubes that repeat infinitely in both the past and future. The black hole has countless external universes and countless internal universes! The external universes are bounded by zero infinity and an event horizon. Each internal universe has a singularity and is divided into several regions. The rotating black hole has an inner event horizon surrounding its central singularity. Each time an event horizon is crossed, time and space reverse direction; there are two such reversals on the journey from the external universe to the singularity. Thus, within the inner event horizon, the directions of time and space are exactly the same as outside the black hole.
Humans have long considered black holes to be stingy misers, only taking in and never giving out. However, it has been discovered that axisymmetric rotating Kerr black holes seem to differ from static Schwarzschild black holes. The faster a black hole rotates, the larger its dynamic layer becomes, allowing gamma rays to escape. Therefore, black holes are natural extreme physics laboratories, and many more cosmic mysteries can be obtained by observing them.
Scientists have come up with the idea of using the Penrose process to extract energy from rotating black holes.
Between the outer event horizon and the stationary boundary of a Kerr black hole lies a relatively vast region called the "ergosphere," meaning a layer from which energy can be extracted. The energy of a Kerr black hole consists of two parts: gravitational potential energy corresponding to its mass and rotational kinetic energy corresponding to its rotation. What can be extracted is rotational energy. The method for extracting rotational energy is to send a spacecraft into the ergosphere, drop a heavy object in the opposite direction of the black hole's rotation, and then quickly depart. This process reduces the black hole's angular momentum, and the reduced portion is transferred to the spacecraft. Additionally, the reduced rotational momentum also transfers some of its energy to the spacecraft, thus extracting energy from the black hole. However, the black hole doesn't lose out; although it loses rotational energy (angular momentum), it gains a large amount of matter. The black hole doesn't care about rotational energy (angular momentum); what it cares about is the area of its event horizon. Any activity a black hole undertakes ensures that the event horizon area only increases, not decreases, and the above process can increase the event horizon area. Therefore, theoretically, a space station could be built outside the stationary interface of a Kerr black hole, and then the rotational energy of the black hole could be extracted using parabolic projection. In this way, almost inexhaustible energy could be extracted from the rotating black hole (because the lifespan of a large black hole is almost certainly longer than that of a proton).
Within the Sirius black hole, humanity on Earth used a beam of super-intelligent energy to open a "wormhole" within the Schwarzschild static black hole, enabling long-distance travel. However, in the ergosphere of a rotating Kerr black hole, the drag caused by the black hole's rotation tears spacetime apart. Therefore, Kerr black holes do not require external forces, such as the action of an intelligent energy beam, to create wormholes for traversing spacetime on their own.
