Chapter 2 - Chatting about UFOs During the Flight to the Planet Guoke

During the flight, I began feeling oddly light, and a soft, sweet voice whispered in my ear, though I couldn't locate its source. I glimpsed a planet on a virtual screen that quickly vanished, followed by a schematic showing our zigzag course. When I closed my eyes, it felt like the UFO disappeared, leaving me alone in a dark void, endlessly falling into an abyss. This terrified me, so I opened my eyes quickly.

As the UFO began moving, robots operated it, monitoring a three-dimensional virtual screen. I asked if this was what we Earthlings call a UFO, and was told it was. I learned that UFOs can travel at the speed of light in their fastest state, called the "zero-mass excited state." In this state, the UFO's rest mass is zero, and it always moves at light speed. There are also two other states: a quasi-excited state with a tiny mass and a normal state where the UFO is stationary with a fixed mass.

The principle behind UFO flight was explained: if an object's mass becomes zero, it will move at the speed of light. I was surprised by how simple this complex idea sounded. We also discussed how UFOs manipulate time and space around them using a time potential difference. This allows them to travel long distances in just a few hours from their perspective, even if it takes years from an Earthling's viewpoint.

I was curious about the forces inside the UFO. I learned that since the UFO has minimal or zero mass, the force on passengers during rapid acceleration is negligible. This also explains how they can fly silently and avoid friction.

Finally, I asked about the UFO's construction and propulsion system. The circular edge contains a ring-shaped cavity where charged particles circulate, converting electric fields into magnetic fields and creating a repulsive force field. This enables the UFO to fly at light speed and make sharp maneuvers. The propulsion system relies on the mutual conversion between electromagnetic and gravitational fields, similar to Faraday's work on Earth.
