为什么值得读
- 物理学家依据真实研究论文拓展成的硬科幻
- 设定中子星表面毫米级高山与极速生命演化
- 将核化学与天体物理巧妙融入震撼故事中
在一个关于牺牲与胜利的感人故事中,人类科学家与生活在 Dragon's Egg 上的智慧生命体——cheela——建立了联系。Dragon's Egg 是一颗中子星,地球上的一个小时就相当于它们那里的数百年。cheela 在文明上从野蛮蒙昧进化到发现科学,而在一段短暂的时间里,人类成为了它们勤勉的导师……

一本很棒的科幻小说,讲述了一个在中子星表面演化出的智慧外星种族,作者是一位物理学家:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/263466.Dragon_s_Egg
A good science fiction book about an intelligent alien race that evolved on the surface of a neutron star, written by a physicist: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/263466.Dragon_s_Egg
如果你还没读过罗伯特·L·福沃德(RL Forward)的《龙蛋》(Dragon’s Egg),那趁周末休息赶紧读一下犒劳自己吧。这是一部80年代的硬科幻小说,描绘了名为“芝拉”(cheela)的物种传奇:这些生物演化于中子星表面,那里的力量……
If you haven’t read RL Forward’s Dragon’s Egg then take the weekend off and treat yourself. A 1980s hard sci-fi novel depicting the saga of a species called cheela: creatures who have evolved to live on the surface of a neutron star, where the forces…
如果你读了那篇文章,并且觉得“高耸的山脉只有几厘米高”这个脑洞很有趣的话,我强烈推荐罗伯特·L·福沃德的科幻小说《龙蛋》。他其实写过一篇关于中子星的科研论文,然后把那篇论文改编成了一部小说!硬科幻的巅峰之作,把核化学和物理学写得妙趣……
If you read the article and enjoyed the idea of immense mountains being just centimeters tall, I highly recommend a scifi novel called “Dragon’s Egg” by Robert L. Forward. He actually wrote a scientific research paper on neutron stars and turned the paper into a novel! Hard science fiction at its best and makes nuclear chemistry and physics delightfully…
你读过《龙蛋》吗?这是一部推测性硬科幻,设想了在中子星地表外壳上演化的超高速生命!
Did you ever read Dragon's Egg? It's a speculative hard sci-fi that posits ultra-fast evolution for life on the surface crust of a neutron star!
我喜欢这些书(《Dragon's Egg》和《Starquake》)。Robert Forward 不太擅长写人类角色,但他们只出现在少数几个场景里。他真的把 cheela 写活了,而且推测性的物理学非常出色。
I love these books (Dragon's Egg and Starquake). Robert Forward isn't great with the human characters, but they're only in a handful of scenes. He really brings the cheela to life, and the speculative physics is outstanding.
如果要推科幻的话,我想加上罗伯特·L·福沃德的《龙蛋》。不过他现在已经写了三本了。这是部硬科幻,讲的是一颗中子星穿过太阳系,地球争分夺秒对其进行研究。与此同时,其上的生命正在孕育……
If we're recommending scifi I'd like to add Dragon's Egg by Robert L. Forward. Except he's now up to three books. It's hard scifi of a neutron star passing through the solar system and Earth scrambling to research it. At the same time life is developing…
