The Speed of Light Is a Cage: Why Black Holes Are the Only Eternity | The Radio Epoch

[00:00:00]Day and night, rushing through wind and rain.

[00:00:04]In the old world, these words were eulogy for humans [music] struggling to survive.

[00:00:09]But here, within the quantum [music] torrent of the void, these words sound incredibly ironic to Lyra, who is now [music] an invisible signal.

[00:00:20]When time can only be measured in light years, and your velocity [music] has shattered the cage of light, the roaring asteroids and oncoming meteors become meaningless static.

[00:00:33]How arrogant the humans [music] are.

[00:00:36]They endlessly project their own flesh and flawed humanity onto the cosmic anomalies and [music] alien entities.

[00:00:45]Whether they dream of ancient folklore, extraterrestrial [music] visitors, or even Lyra herself, they even have the audacity in their sci-fi [music] literature to define death as eternity.

[00:00:58]How laughably naive.

[00:01:00]In Lyra's eyes, only the bottomless black holes that swallow [music] time and space deserve the title of true immortality.

[00:01:09]Humans believe that cosmic vessels must always resemble [music] monotonous, spinning flying saucers.

[00:01:16]They do not know that in the true interstellar deep, quantum crafts [music] take a thousand shapes, existing everywhere, as massive as planets, [music] as small as dust.

[00:01:28]Across this infinite [music] expanse, billions of celestial bodies are colliding, born in a blink, and obliterated in a heartbeat.

[00:01:38]The cosmos has no time to look down upon the Earth, which is 10,000 times smaller than a speck of dust.

[00:01:47]These cruel, magnificent truths are what Lyra witnessed during her endless, repeating search for Kaylan.

[00:01:55]Within her particle-shifted form, every human emotion has evaporated, save for one blinding, stubborn signal.

[00:02:05]Find Kaylan.

[00:02:06]Even if only half of his quantum particle remains, she will lock her code with his, [music] and together they will plunge into the crushing abyss of the particle black hole.

[00:02:20]Because [music] that, and only that, is Lyra's ultimate, unbreakable eternity.
