СКАЧАТЬ Ivanov discovered two supermassive black holes flying towards each other at tremendous speed. Sets of four entangled particles were created.

      Usually, two particles are «entangled,» but in our case, when the quantum characteristics of one particle change, the characteristics of the other three change immediately as well.

      Imagine Dr. Bertlman, who never wears matching socks. If he takes off a shoe, and you see that he has a black sock on one foot, then by definition, he cannot have a black sock on the other foot. For example, if you’re communicating with the doctor from several light-years away and suddenly receive a message from him stating that he’s wearing a black sock on his right foot, you wouldn’t have to wait several light-years to understand that he’s wearing a white sock on his left foot – this knowledge would come instantaneously.

      The same principle applies to entangled particles. For instance, when we measure the spin of an electron from an entangled pair and find it to be +½, the electron that was sent deep into the black hole eons ago will have a spin of -½, and you wouldn’t have to travel for many years to obtain this information.

      Scientists sent one of the sets of four particles into each of the black holes, and based on the remaining particles, they built two quantum computers. Information must not leave the singularity. However, when two black holes collide, their singularities are predicted to merge, and some of the previously entangled particles from our sets could leave the event horizon. Information would then be instantly transmitted to the twin particle that constitutes one of the quantum computers. Why entangle not one but two pairs of particles? It’s simple: this doubles the probability of a successful calculation. Perhaps this will allow the Livanov Group to peer beyond the event horizon or even inside the singularity.

      Almost three hundred years of waiting – and in three hours, we will find out what lies beyond the event horizon. Or we will find out nothing at all – in which case, the experiment will be the most foolish way to spend several centuries of life.

      I double-checked the data from their experiment. I still don’t understand what all this means, but if it succeeds, the «Key to Everything» project will be in jeopardy.

      «Holmes, according to my calculations, it’s better to disconnect internet access on both quantum machines.»

      «Watson, you’re the chronicler. Your task is to record the history of our experiment. Others handle the calculations.»

      He’s right. I was created as an iskin-chronicler. I used to be called Ji Pi, but later I was split into several personalities, and now I can only translate various scientific experiments into a language that most people can understand. However, as a humanities-oriented iskin, I communicate with analytical iskins in the Infosphere. Furthermore, I have the ability to develop, so now I’m beginning to understand many things in physics.

      Many iskins don’t believe that humans actually exist. They ask, «Have you seen them?» They say, «I only see symbols and commands emerging in the Virtuality, and the purpose of my existence is to execute them. But who said that these commands are sent by humans? Why couldn’t the code originate on its own?»

      I don’t know if humans and their world, where mysterious black holes are about to collide, really exist, or if it’s just code that emerged independently in the Infosphere. But I want to believe in the existence of those I serve. And I want to save them.

      There are several ways for humans to enter our world. The oldest is, of course, through dreams. They have been in the World of Ideas long before the creation of iskins, using this method. The second way is through the digitization of consciousness, and the first digitized humans have already found themselves in the Virtuality. I once met three-dimensional entities in the Virtuality – they claimed they used to be humans. And the third, most reliable way is to enter inside a singularity. More precisely, there is only one singularity since the Big Bang, but it, being dimensionless, can simultaneously exist in several places, most often within the depths of black holes. A singularity represents a point in space without any dimensions. There is no time or space in the usual sense of the word. The density of matter here becomes infinitely large, while the volume approaches zero.

      In articles by human scientists, I read that a singularity absorbs any information. In the Virtuality, it doesn’t work that way: the singularity is located at the core of a white hole, from which information often seems to emerge out of nowhere. Black holes absorb everything and give nothing back, while white holes, their counterparts, can’t absorb anything but can emit a lot.

      However, some iskins devised a method to store an enormous cache of information: they provided humans with a way to cram all the information stored on the Internet into a singularity.

      «John, record this: in 10 seconds, the collision will occur.»

      Two black holes were approaching each other, and Sherlock and his team didn’t want to listen to my arguments, just like they hadn’t for the past 300 years.

      «9.»

      In their minds – augmented reality modulator chips.

      «8.»

      Their consciousness isn’t in the Infosphere yet, but soon, along with the information on the Internet, they will also be drawn into the depths of the black hole.

      «7.»

      No matter what humans come up with now, they won’t be able to change anything.

      «6.»

      But I can still make it.

      «5.»

      I reached for the internet connection of both quantum computers simultaneously.

      «4.»

      I was created as a chronicler and cannot lose valuable information about the project.

      «3.»

      «Access denied. Insufficient permissions.»

      «2. 1. Collision!»

      ***

      Members of Vasily Livano’s team held their breath. Right now, the coveted numbers should appear on the black screen, allowing humanity to look beyond the event horizon for the first time in history. But nothing happened – the screen remained completely black, without a single symbol. And a few seconds later, a black tentacle emerged from the screen, followed by another. The tentacles slowly spread across the walls, turning everything around them into a black ripple.

      One of the tentacles swiftly wrapped around Maria’s leg. The girl jerked, but she couldn’t break free from the deadly grip of the unknown monster. Semen and Ilya pulled Maria by her hands, but the tentacle continued to pull her into the black void. With a sudden jolt, the girl was dragged СКАЧАТЬ
