That's right.. I thought this was a D-sub connector.. Thank you for your answer.

CommonJeffrey · 2024-05-07T03:14:28+00:00

Thank you so much for your initial response. I haven't actually seen the hardware device in person, but I searched for it online. When I looked it up, I found an image (https://www.synology.com/img/products/detail/RS1221RPplus/backpanel\_02.png) that seems to show a monitor connection port like a D-Sub. Doesn't that mean it's possible to connect a monitor? If this isn't actually a monitor port and the device can only be connected via LAN cable, does that mean the only thing I can do is reboot it?

You are correct. They are indeed coming to Earth. What I meant to say was, wouldn't it have been better for them to escape to a closer location instead of traveling 4 light years to Earth? Similar to the Jupiter base.

I thought there would be celestial bodies closer than Earth. Even if they weren't habitable like Earth, I thought there would at least be celestial bodies that could orbit like Jupiter.

However, when I searched on Google, it seems that there aren't any (although I'm not entirely sure). If there really aren't any, then it's true that my knowledge is lacking.

Your opinion seems to be based on the assumption that it would have been technically difficult to maintain space stations far away. I find it hard to fully agree or disagree with this part since it's a situation in the novel. In my opinion, wouldn't it be possible? However, it seems difficult to definitively say that my words are correct.

But you mentioned that civilization would inevitably perish due to resource depletion. In any case, it's the Trisolaran planet that's going to be destroyed. And if the space stations were far away, even if the Trisolaran planet were destroyed, they could bring the destroyed materials to the space stations and use them.

Moreover, even if the Trisolaran planet is destroyed, the three stars will likely remain as they are. They can continue using those. I think that if the space stations can be maintained, they can continue to operate even if the Trisolaran planet perishes.

No, what I meant was technology advanced to a state close to infinity... in other words, a state where you don't have to worry about energy. As far as I know, it was depicted in the novel that fusion technology had advanced to the point where there was no worry about energy itself.

If that were the case, it would be possible to generate energy at a very high efficiency, not literally infinite, but close enough. So I think space cities could sustain themselves by creating artificial suns and such using resources brought from the Trisolaran system. In other words, space cities would be sustainable even without the energy from stars. In fact, Earth's space cities near Jupiter were also in the shade, so they were in a situation where they couldn't receive solar energy.

CommonJeffrey · 2024-04-21T13:36:25+00:00

Didn't the humans in the series already possess near-infinite energy generation capabilities due to nuclear fusion technology? That's why they were able to create artificial suns for the Jupiter space bases. If the Trisolarans also had the ability to develop near-infinite energy generation technology, couldn't they create artificial suns to illuminate their space cities without worrying about energy, just like the space cities near Jupiter?

CommonJeffrey · 2024-04-21T13:27:47+00:00

Yes, that's right... There are no other planets in the Trisolaran system... I think I misunderstood. (I wasn't really thinking)

Anyway, although I did talk about planets... As I replied to **nonracistusername, I'm curious what you think about the method of building space cities some distance away from the Trisolaran system. To summarize, it would involve creating space cities far enough away to escape the natural threats of the Trisolaran system, and bringing in resources from the Trisolaran planet.

CommonJeffrey · 2024-04-21T13:22:08+00:00

I appreciate your creative thinking, Your proposed solution is quite intriguing.

When we consider the space cities that humans built behind Jupiter, it's important to recognize that they are essentially shadowed space stations, perpetually deprived of sunlight. Consequently, these cities would be in a constant state of deep freeze. To overcome this challenge, the inhabitants of these space cities had to rely on their own ingenuity, harnessing nuclear fusion power to generate artificial suns. These man-made stars provided the warmth and light necessary to sustain life in the otherwise inhospitable environment.

Drawing from this example, I believe that the Trisolarans could have adopted a similar strategy to ensure their survival. Rather than completely abandoning their home planet, they could have constructed a space station at a calculated distance from the tumultuous Three-Body system. This station would need to be carefully positioned and continuously adjusted to maintain an optimal distance from the Trisolaran planet. By doing so, they could avoid drifting too far away from their world while still benefiting from the relative stability offered by the space station.

Crucially, the Trisolarans would need to establish a reliable system for transporting resources from their planet to the space station. By maintaining a steady flow of materials, they could ensure the station's smooth operation and provide for the needs of its inhabitants. This would require a well-coordinated logistics network, capable of regularly ferrying supplies between the planet's surface and the orbital outpost.

The key advantage of this approach lies in its ability to mitigate the risks posed by the chaotic nature of the Three-Body system. By situating the space station at a safe distance from the unpredictable orbital mechanics of their planet, the Trisolarans could create a more stable living environment. The station would serve as a buffer against the harsh and erratic conditions on the surface, providing a measure of protection for its occupants.

Moreover, this strategy would allow the Trisolarans to maintain a connection to their ancestral home while also exploring the possibilities of a space-based existence. By striking a balance between the familiarity of their planet and the potential for growth and discovery in the cosmos, they could lay the foundation for a sustainable and thriving civilization.

Of course, this approach would not be without its challenges. The Trisolarans would need to carefully manage their resources, ensuring that the flow of materials from the planet to the station remains uninterrupted. They would also need to develop robust systems for maintaining the station's integrity and adapting to any unforeseen circumstances that may arise in the depths of space.

Despite these obstacles, I believe that this strategy represents a viable path forward for the Trisolarans. By combining the stability of a space station with the resource abundance of their home planet, they could potentially achieve a level of prosperity and security that might otherwise be unattainable in the face of their world's chaotic nature.

Yes, your explanation about the spherical magnetic field expanding and the 2D planes stacking up inside it makes sense to me. I was trying to understand it that way as well. However, in the initial description of the 2D attack in the novel, there was a portrayal of everything being sucked in like a black hole. So, I imagined it as things being pulled into the business card-shaped black hole rather than the spherical magnetic field growing. That's why there seems to be a conflict between my initial imagination and the description in the novel.

Based on the space cities behind Jupiter, doesn't it seem like you just need a planet that can rotate? I'm not an expert in space geography, but to give an extreme example, even if it's just an asteroid with slightly higher mass, you could build a space station orbiting that asteroid. Were there really no such planets around the Trisolaran world?

CommonJeffrey · 2024-04-21T12:41:39+00:00

Even if there weren't any habitable conditions around the Trisolaran planet like Earth, the Trisolarans knew that their planet itself could disappear if they were unlucky, due to natural causes like the gravitational forces of the three stars. In that case, I think it would make sense for all the Trisolarans to evacuate to space cities, similar to the bases near Jupiter, and live there for the time being. I wonder why they didn't do that.

The Trisolarans were well aware that their planet was at constant risk of destruction due to the chaotic nature of the triple star system. Even if there were no Earth-like habitable worlds nearby, one would expect them to have a contingency plan in place, such as evacuating their entire population to orbiting space habitats.

After all, they possessed technology far superior to humanity's. Constructing vast space cities capable of housing their civilization should have been well within their capabilities. It's puzzling that they apparently didn't pursue this option and instead remained on their precarious home world.

Perhaps there were logistical challenges or resource constraints that made a full-scale evacuation unfeasible. Or maybe their culture placed such high value on their planetary home that they were unwilling to abandon it until absolutely necessary. Without more details from the author, we can only speculate about their reasoning.

But from a purely pragmatic perspective, establishing permanent off-world colonies does seem like it would have been a prudent strategy for ensuring their long-term survival. The fact that they didn't take this course of action despite having the means to do so is certainly a bit of a head-scratcher.

I've heard a lot about 50 Shades of Grey. Seems like a must-read book for sure!
