"Begin the experiment!" Kong Qing shouted.
Dozens of nuclear fusion reactors started up, supplying energy to the particle emitters and magnetic field generators.
The particle emitters at both ends of the circular pipeline simultaneously emitted a beam of particles, and the acceleration magnetic field started accelerating them.
Their speed needed to be accelerated to nearly the speed of light!
According to the mass-energy formula, the closer an object is to the speed of light, the closer its mass is to infinity. So even accelerating microscopic particles requires an astronomical amount of energy!
They can only get close to the speed of light; to actually achieve infinitely close to the speed of light, even tens of thousands of nuclear fusion reactors wouldn't be enough, and the circular pipeline would have to be infinitely long, perhaps even encircling an entire planet.
