- 脑洞设定密集，代表了硬科幻的世界观巅峰
- 构想宏大壮阔，横跨上百万年宇宙演变历程
“人类所到之处，皆见生命……”这部荣获2000年 Philip K. Dick Award 的炫目未来史，是自 Asimov 的经典 Foundation 传奇以来最雄心勃勃、最令人心潮澎湃的作品。它讲述了人类的故事——一路延展至宇宙本身的终局。在这里，跨越五百万年的璀璨而生动的叙事铺展开来：最初横跨太阳系的 Poole 虫洞；Squeem 对人类星球的征服；超越光速的 GUTships；Qax 的逆向时间入侵；Xeelee 的神秘与遗产及其堪比小型星系尺度的造物；photis……

我平时为了消遣读过大量的科幻小说。这几本是我个人很喜欢并安利给别人的：1. 斯蒂芬·巴克斯特的《真空图表》（Vacuum Diagrams）。每当我想起史诗级硬科幻，脑子里就会冒出“光舟联盟”（Xeelee Sequence）系列。其故事跨越数百万年（横跨几十本书），而这本短篇集……
I read a lot of Science Fiction for fun. These are a few of my favorites that I've given to other people: 1. Vacuum Diagrams by Stephen Baxter. When I think of epic hard science fiction, the Xeelee Sequence books spring to mind. With a story line that spans millions of years (and a few dozen books), this collection of short…
你可能会喜欢斯蒂芬·巴克斯特的“光舟联盟”系列。我是从 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_Diagrams 开始入坑的，看得很过瘾，但也能理解对某些人来说里面的各个故事可能会显得过于杂乱和脱节。
You might enjoy Stephen Baxter's "Xeelee" books. I started with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_Diagrams and enjoyed it, but could see its various stories coming across as too jumbled up and disconnected for some.
如果你喜欢伊根那种世界观设定，那也可以去看看斯蒂芬·巴克斯特。《真空图表》是个很好的入门起点。
and if you do like egan for the worldbuilding, check out stephen baxter as well. 'vacuum diagrams' makes a good introduction.
Stephen Baxter 写的 Xeelee Sequence 系列（Vacuum Diagrams、Raft、Timelike Infinity 等）或者 The Manifold Series
The Xeelee Sequence books (Vacuum Diagrams, Raft, Timelike Infinity etc) or The Manifold Series, all by Stephen Baxter
……尤其是短篇。虽然不符合2020年代这个要求，但如果你还没看的话推荐去读 Greg Egan（本帖其他地方提到了他的《离散》）。《Dark Integers》是一部短篇小说集。还有斯蒂芬·巴克斯特的《真空图表》。在我看来，这三位作者绝对是硬科幻的天花板。但提醒一下，他们明显都有点为了追求高密度点子而牺牲其他东西。如果想看文学性更强、更有深度的……
…Short fiction especially. Fails for the 2020s part, but check out Greg Egan if you haven't already (his Diaspora is mentioned elsewhere in this thread). Dark Integers is a short-fiction collection. Also Vacuum Diagrams, by Stephen Baxter. These three authors are, IMHO, the absolute pinnacle of hard scifi. But be advised they are definitely kinda optimizing for being idea-dense. For more literary stuff with deeper…
斯蒂芬·巴克斯特的《真空图表》里有个故事讲的是一项优生学实验，里面的受试者只能在40岁左右繁衍，然后是50岁、60岁等等。实验发起人试图抑制阻碍长寿的基因。他们可能确实……
There was an story in Stephen Baxter's "Vacuum Diagrams" about a eugenics experiment where the participants could only reproduce at like 40 years, then 50, then 60, etc. The leader was trying to suppress the genes that prevented long life. They probably did…
