Chapter 32 The Secret of Humanity

Based on various speculations, Yu Yifeng still believes that one of the "Laplace's Demon" views is the most reliable.

From the perspective of traditional physics, scientists believe that as long as they know the basic state of every particle in the universe, they can gain insight into the future.

Therefore, a concept called "Laplace's Demon" was born. The 19th-century physicist Laplace believed that we can view the current state of the universe as the effect of its past and the cause of its future.

If a wise man could know the forces of all natural motion and the positions of all naturally constituted objects at a given moment, and if he could also analyze these data, then the motions from the largest objects in the universe to the smallest particles would all be contained in a simple formula.

To the wise man, nothing is vague and the future appears to him as the past. This is foreknowledge of the future. This wise man is called "Laplace's Demon".

But this view has been challenged by quantum mechanics. According to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, humans cannot even know the position and speed of an electron at the same time, let alone the entire universe? From this point of view, Laplace's demon does not exist.

However, even quantum mechanics is not necessarily completely correct. Opponents believe that probability waves, creation out of nothing, function collapse, etc. cannot be explained by causal relationships at all, and are completely illogical...

Anyway, the father-in-law is right, and the mother-in-law is right. Some people believe that Calvin's brain has a special computing ability that can predict future possibilities based on the known information received. Things like divination, astrology, etc. are all similar products.

This statement seems to be the most reasonable, but it is only somewhat reasonable...

"So, did Calvin predict the success rate of Noah's plan?" Yu Yifeng asked.

"He said that fate is unpredictable. Every tiny variable will cause a butterfly effect. He can only see high probabilities, but cannot be sure."

Yuriko imitated Calvin's tone seriously, "Don't worry, we humans will definitely find a way out under the leadership of the Son of God!"

Hearing this, Yu Yifeng wanted to roll his eyes, but he held it back. In fact, this kind of ambiguous prediction has no meaning. It is the same as what it said and what it didn't say, and it puts the responsibility on yourself. Anyway, Yu Yifeng didn't have high expectations. Most of Calvin's predictions were like this.

He is more inclined to believe that human beings can find a way out by relying on their own hands and brains, rather than illusory prophecies. Can a prediction change the future? Obviously it's impossible. The road is right at your feet. How can you move forward if you don't walk?

He suddenly felt a little funny. This Calvin's unique tone seemed very strange when he said it in Yuriko's mouth. The point is, it sounds a bit funny that she can say it so coldly and seriously.

After getting along with her for such a long time, Yu Yifeng clearly discovered that she is a peculiar species with high IQ and low EQ. She is not bad as a scientist, but she might starve to death if she goes out to socialize.

Perhaps this is a phenomenon unique to female doctors? No, it's much more serious than the female doctor... If you discuss science with her, there will be no problem, and you can basically communicate normally. If you discuss other things, such as life and interpersonal communication, you may hear some incredible conclusions.

"So do you think Calvin can really predict the future?" Yu Yifeng asked after considering his tone.

“What cannot be explained by science does not mean that it does not exist, because the current level of science can reveal too little truth.”

Yuriko seemed to be quite interested and said: "Human beings know less about their own brains than even the macroscopic universe. I once saw a report that human superpowers include prophecy, telepathy, levitation, and biology. Luminescence, bioelectricity, detection, fire control, human nature, psychic surgeons, etc., some have been falsified, some can be explained by natural science, but most are still inconclusive.”

"I remain skeptical about these inconclusive things, neither affirming nor denying. People have studied these supernatural phenomena, and finally integrated them into a discipline called parapsychology. Many countries have studied this parapsychology Do research, some well-known universities also have relevant courses.”

"For example, Professor Qian, the father of your country's two bombs and one satellite, has written relevant books."

"According to research, people with supernatural abilities usually have brains that are different from ordinary humans. Humans with such brain abnormalities should be said to be a kind of subtle evolution, a manifestation of human beings adapting to nature."

"My father believes that such people, usually with religious beliefs and strong willpower, may have a higher success rate in undergoing transformation with perfect hormones." Her father is Dr. Roman, who has been studying perfect hormones for four or five years. It can be said to be the authority in this field.

This was the first time Yu Yifeng heard this statement, and he lowered his head and pondered.

After carrying out missions for so many years, he has also met some special people, such as those who generate electricity, are extremely powerful, and can levitate. But in the final analysis, these special people are not as exaggerated as in the movies. Those who generate electricity are not as good as an electric eel, and those who can levitate can only last for two or three seconds... Could this kind of people withstand the transformation of the body?

Yu Yifeng was doubtful.

Of course, he also has some ideas about the perfect element. According to existing examples, it can transform humans into more powerful superhumans. Compared with superhumans, ordinary humans are too weak, and they are far behind in terms of intelligence and physical fitness.

The most important thing is that superhumans have an ability to adapt to the environment that ordinary people can hardly achieve.

This adaptability is all-round. For example, Yu Yifeng has been reading these days and constantly using his brain. Obviously, he feels that his brain is getting smarter and smarter, and his progress is amazing.

Of course, ordinary people also say that the more they use their brains, the smarter they are, but they will not make such exaggerated progress as him.

For example, when he was doing physical training before, he easily surpassed the Guinness record. His physical potential seemed endless and became more and more exaggerated until he reached a relatively high value, and then the speed of progress slowly slowed down.

To put it bluntly, it is a problem of potential. Superhumans are far greater than humans.

If he really wants to travel at the interstellar level, Yu Yifeng would like to transform everyone into superhumans. The universe is cold and cruel, and all galaxies cannot be as kind and friendly as the solar system. What if humans encounter a planet with ten times the gravity of the Earth when they need to replenish resources?

Ten times the gravity of the Earth is simply unbearable for the weak human body, and there is no sufficient technical means for mining. What should we do? Can we just wait to die? Therefore, only by relying on superhumans can we better adapt to the cosmic environment.

Besides, the life span of humans is less than a hundred years, which is too short. It is possible that more than half of the people will age after one voyage. Only by evolving into superhumans and increasing their life span by more than ten times can they barely be qualified to roam in the Milky Way.

Yu Yifeng suppressed this idea in his heart. He is not the kind of narrow-minded person who only wants to be a superhuman and dominate among ordinary people. In fact, this does not make much sense. No matter how strong a superhuman is, it is not as good as a bulldozer, and no matter how smart his brain is, it is not as good as a supercomputer.

Only when all humans evolve into superhumans can the entire race have a breakthrough in the essential sense.

"So, Calvin is a person with special abilities? Does he have a higher success rate in accepting perfect element transformation?" Yu Yifeng thought to himself. If you accept the transformation of Perfection, you will die if you fail, but there is no successful example so far. The best result is to become a vegetable... The risk is too great.

"Are there any other special people like this in our base?" Yu Yifeng asked.

"Uh... maybe, there are." Yuriko was silent for a while, suddenly blushed, and said hesitantly.

This girl with low emotional intelligence behaved very unnaturally. It was the first time that Yu Yifeng saw her expression like this. Although he was a little curious, he still tactfully stopped asking. Anyway, there was no time to think about the matter of Perfection now, and he had to put it aside for later.

"Knock, knock, knock" At this time, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

"Come in!"

It was Xu Yunjin who pushed the door in. He said hurriedly, "Captain, I want to abolish the Moon Society!"
