From the day of its birth, human beings began to explore the relationship between the external world and their own formation. How was man born? How does the earth, solar system, galaxy and vast universe that we live in operate? Is there an ultimate rule of "simple path" that dominates everything?
With the continuous progress of human cognition, the exploration of the outside world has also moved from the initial living situation to a deeper space and even the universe to find answers. What is the original driving force that supports human beings to keep looking for all this?
Thousands of years ago, mankind always thought that the earth was the center of everything. Heaven, earth and human form a seemingly perfect unified system. The Pope and the kingship tried to make more people believe in the realized reality with the will of God, and let the public's thoughts live according to the ideas of some people. The appearance of Copernicus changed all this, because he stood up and said that the sun was the center of everything, and the Pope was too scared to sleep.
Astronomers, mathematicians and philosophers try to explain the world with their knowledge and skills. With the deepening of the debate, people's cognition began to change fundamentally. Newton developed from the natural phenomenon of apples falling to the ground. Any substance has something called "gravity" and it is expressed perfectly in a mathematical way.
Newton's gravity can describe most physical phenomena. People thought they had found the eternal law of the universe, but later they found that it was just a representation. Newton's theory is based on the macro level, just like the waves of the sea. He let us know this majesty and power, but he couldn't explain the more basic and underlying mysteries. But young Einstein did it, just connecting the speed of light and time in a spatial coordinate system.
When science is glad that mankind has made great progress, bigger and more incredible problems appear in front of mankind. Because scientists have found from tiny electrons that they do not conform to the theory of relativity in some ways. So I began to enter the constant experiments, demonstrations and hypotheses, and the mysterious quantum mechanics came onto the stage.
Human exploration of the universe is based on the original research, constantly overthrowing past theories and establishing new ones. But in the end it can only be closer to the ultimate theory of the universe. Today's scientists firmly believe that there is a fundamental and essential law that governs everything in the universe and guides the fate of mankind.
The description of higher civilization in the universe in Three-body mainly focuses on dimensions, which means that each higher civilization has different dimensions. In the eyes of advanced civilization, human beings are like worms on the ground. The ultimate law of the universe, like a dark forest, is filled with crisis and has an eternal breath of death.
The second law of thermodynamics perfectly describes the ultimate destination of the universe and even everything. Almost nothing can resist "entropy increase", and so can the universe. But is the parallel universe outside the universe the same as ours? Can another universe in multidimensional space change other universes like quantum entanglement? These still need human beings to understand and explore.
From the day of its birth, the universe has been doomed to its own destiny, and the galaxy, the sun and the earth will eventually complete their mission. What is the ultimate purpose of the creator? Perhaps after a year of soul-stirring, mankind will gradually find the answer. # Universe #
