Dr. Liang Qiuyue (梁秋月) is a propulsion physicist at Luna Research Dome 5’s Propulsion and Field Systems Division, specializing in field coil optimization for the Direct Fusion Drive program. In 2142, she published the first cross-site analysis of the Charon Anchor complex and the Kuiper Belt vessel, demonstrating that both share a common fabrication origin — the first public scientific work to examine both restricted datasets in parallel. In the same paper, she introduced the term Spacers (深空族, Shēnkōng zú — “deep-space people”) for the civilization that built both structures, deliberately replacing “non-human structures” with a name she argued was “more honest.” She also outlined a theoretical framework for propellantless propulsion via localized spacetime gradient — stating plainly that neither she nor CAI (which returned a null result when asked to derive the governing equations) had solved it. In February 2171, she was senior author on the paper reporting the first controlled generation of a vacuum information sink — a laboratory reproduction of the SNOBA sink signature in a 0.4 m³ enclosure, with anomalous recoil consistent with F = T∇S and the write threshold declared crossable with existing human engineering. Her later work in Era IV produced the first unified Spacer network theory.
