"Science" has no meaning of praise or criticism. It is just a way to understand the world and study problems. For a simple example, when people say that traditional Chinese medicine is not a science, it has no derogatory meaning at all, because it itself is a method of accumulating experience. However, to say that traditional Chinese medicine is completely ineffective is to slander the facts in vain.


    For the time being, it is enough that scientism is more in line with objective laws than empiricism and can promote the development of productive forces.


    As far as the current TEP civilization is concerned, since the world is divided into more than 1000 countries, large and small, and their respective cultures are different, it is very difficult to truly unify the world and produce the cohesion of the whole civilization.


    Under this premise, the professor on the stage came to this conclusion: "... So we speculate that TEP will not be fully integrated in the next few hundred years. It is possible for a country similar to the Xia state on earth to unite several major powers and rush out of its own planet. "


    "As for the remaining countries, what should be abandoned can only be abandoned."


    "This is just one of the possibilities... More likely, we can''t rush out of our own planet, or even have no way to birth controllable nuclear fusion and become a mediocre civilization that stands still."


    At this point, many people sighed silently.


    The reason why, in the 20th and 21st centuries, the major powers assisted Asian, African and Latin American countries is just to obtain economic growth points. If there are not enough interests, why should they help? If we can really develop outer planets, the cake we can get is too big, so we don''t need to consider the game within the planet, let alone pay attention to the life and death of small poor countries. It''s too late for everyone to develop space. Who will pay attention to the poverty and backwardness on the other side of the planet?


    In fact, a little humanitarian help is useless. If the whole cultural level and spiritual core are not good, such a country will not be able to rise after all.


    Between culture and culture, there are advanced and barbaric. If a certain culture can not promote the progress of the whole society, it is probably a dross culture. The most important thing is whether the people have the courage to abandon it.


    "The above is the general history of TEP civilization." The scientist made a slight bow and stepped down.


    This historical material is of great help to the historiography of human new civilization. Unlike Riley civilization, it is just some religious classics. It is really valuable in some years, the emergence of some heroes and the birth of some ideology.


    Many historians of new civilization have begun to calculate, deduce and verify this discipline with great interest, and predict the next step of this civilization.


    Then another geologist came to the stage and gave an important survey result: "analysis of the possible traces of enlightener civilization on TEP".


    This result directly aroused the interest of many people, and even Zhang Yuan was a spiritual shock.


    Li Zhendong said on one side, "I can basically calculate the civilized style of the enlightener. They usually predict what difficulties will arise when a civilization develops to a certain stage. Then, in view of this difficulty, give a little help. "


    "As for whether this civilization can develop to this stage and cross this barrier, they don''t care. The difficulties encountered by TEP civilization... Many ah, really many! "


    "It should have been." A vice captain next door should say, "there are so many civilizations in the universe, how can we take care of them all?"


    This is also the opinion of a large number of human scientists. Therefore, this paper focuses on the difficulties faced by TEP civilization.


    The first is the integration of civilizations. In terms of results, the TEP civilization is completely divided. Since more than 1000 countries have developed to the present, there is no possibility of integration.


    Therefore, it can be considered that the enlightener civilization did not pay attention to this, or took some measures, but failed in the end.


    Secondly, the second point is the industrial problem in the high gravity environment, especially the heavy industry, which seems to be struggling and developing slowly. Although they can make big empty boats and ships, the whole process takes more than ten times the time of human beings!


    Originally, after the outbreak of the industrial revolution, science and technology should be developed rapidly. As a result, the TEP people found that the power of machines could not compare with that of traditional livestock. It took them hundreds of years to improve the steam engine.


    "The problem is easy to understand." A mechanical expert explained, "a simple example is a steam turbine, a rotary steam power plant. Under different gravity environments, the flow direction of steam varies greatly. The pressure flow needs to be changed to gravity flow, and the impeller needs to be changed accordingly to ensure force balance."


    The higher the gravity, the more difficult and complex it will be for heavy industry.


    The reason why heavy industry was moved to other low gravity planets in the later stage of earth civilization is that the low gravity environment itself has its own advantages. For example, in the weightless environment, 3D printing perfect metal products do not need to be welded in key places, and the interface can be directly cut flat and pressed together. This technology can be used for high-precision metal products or jewelry inlay, or for the integrated metal shell of industrial production.


    But on earth, this is impossible.


    The gravity of TEP is far greater than that of the earth. All kinds of instruments and devices can only be done very rough, time-consuming and laborious. At the same time, the performance is not high.


    This is the second difficulty encountered by the TEP civilization.


    The third difficulty is the lack of rare earth elements in this large planet!


    This is almost a fatal blow to some cutting-edge industries!


    "We investigated the scientific and technological system of TEP civilization and found that the planet is short of rare earths! Especially heavy rare earth! "


    There are two kinds of rare earth, one is heavy rare earth and the other is light rare earth. Heavy rare earths are more important and valuable than light rare earths.


    The land area of this planet far exceeds that of the earth, but there is a lack of rare earth raw materials, which makes it difficult to improve the performance of many materials.


    The geologist, who played a simulated video of the natural birth of a planet on the screen, explained: "why is there a lack of rare earths? It is mainly because of high gravity... As we all know, rare earths are mostly heavy elements with large atomic weight, which are easy to accumulate over time and sink to the underground core. "


    The planet is too big, the gravity is too large, and it has existed for more than 5 billion years, which has led to a large number of heavy elements sinking to the ground. Therefore, the proportion of heavy rare earths in the crustal layer is lower than that of the earth.


    Then, of course, the tepps were miserable.


    Zhang Yuan sighed: "if this civilization can mine the earth''s core, there is no shortage of rare earths, but the problem is that even we don''t have such technology to mine the earth''s core, of course they can''t."


    In fact, in the crust of TEP, even the amount of gold, silver, copper and iron is more rare. Fortunately, these are common minerals after all. They are distributed on the earth''s surface with a large base and do not affect normal development.


    However, without rare earths, it would be fatal, greatly delaying the development of cutting-edge science and technology.
