Chapter 160 Latest News

 The next day!

A science and technology council hall in Daxia City!

On a large ten-square-meter LCD screen, the data video transmitted back from the Daxia City Space Station is played.

I saw a huge fiery red burning object in outer space, like a fiery snake, silently crossing the infinite sky, heading towards the blue planet at a very fast speed.

The video is scanned by satellite and does not miss any details from any angle.

People sitting below watching the video nervously focused their eyes on the big screen.

Although the space station often transmits data back, there are videos of meteorites streaking across the sky all the time.

But the video in front of me is very special, that is, through the friction of the space object's atmosphere, the fireball can scan a kilometer long moving object in the sky tens of millions of kilometers high.

After everyone saw it, their hair stood on end, their faces changed drastically, and they were frightened.

Human beings are born with a yearning for the unknown space and awe in their hearts.

After all, humans still know too little about the universe.

With the development of human science and technology to this day, countries are no longer satisfied with the blue planet. They want to go to the vast universe.

After all, if Blue Planet technology continues to develop, human beings will become extinct sooner or later due to climate change.

I dream of finding a new star that is suitable for my second residence.

As humans come into contact with various information about nature, they find that the more they know, the less they understand.

We are all dust in the universe.

"Report!"

"Colonel, the latest news!"

A voice full of masculinity came, it was a heroic and proud scientific and technical data clerk, upright and upright. Salute!

"Speak!"

The colonel replied and stopped to watch.

He turned to look at the data clerks, solemn and cold, calm and restrained, and raised his hand in return!

The data clerk stood tall and straight, with sharp eyebrows, his head held high, his chest puffed out and he said:

"Reporting to the leader, the meteorite is traveling at a speed of 10,000 miles per second and is coning into the southern equator at 75 degrees south latitude and 35 degrees west longitude."

"It is currently expected to fall into the Antarctic in 3 days!"

"Human settlements, temporarily assess safety!"

"Antarctica?"

These two words made everyone blush. Antarctica is the most desolate, icy and extremely cold place on the Blue Star.

There is ice and snow that has not melted for thousands of years, which is a place that humans want to but dare not go to.

It is also a restricted area for humans. Lianhe City has long signed a no-fly and no-person regulations.

Although there are regulations, in fact it is still dominated by Piaocheng and Yicheng.

Coupled with the melting of ice and snow in recent decades, the leaders of several cities are extremely concerned.

"Boom! Boom!"

The leader lightly knocked on the table and said in a deep voice: "What do you think? This time it is suspected to be a meteorite problem?"

The top leader faced everyone, his serious tone spread throughout the council chamber, waiting for an answer.

The senators from Zhongke looked solemn and began to discuss among themselves, and the discussion became heated!

"Could it be an alien spacecraft attacking the blue planet? The space station often sends back relevant data!"

"Based on data from satellite scans, I think there is a 90% chance that it is a meteorite. Although it is a kilometer in size, it is still tens of millions of miles away. After the friction of the atmosphere, it will probably be ground into small stones in three days!"

"Antarctica has always been a restricted area for humans. If we look for meteorites, even if we go together with several cities, we still won't be able to reach that location. Aircraft engines can't withstand the low temperatures there."

"You still want to look for meteorites. I think it's better to be in awe of the universe. It's best not to study them. It hasn't fallen into human habitation anyway, so there's no need to go. If it brings alien viruses or something, the consequences will be disastrous.



"Human beings are curious and progressing. The diameter and shape of this object are beyond common sense. Scanning from such a distance, there is no concept of a kilometer long. It is related to space secrets. We should negotiate with other cities to follow up."

"It makes sense. Where is the unclaimed land? Piaocheng is not qualified to monopolize it. We must find out."

"But that geographical location is not within the jurisdiction of our Daxia City. It will be difficult to convince them."

……

Facing everyone's discussion, the leader frowned and fell into deep thought.

After a while!

The leader began to speak, "Everyone, I have roughly summarized a few of your questions."

"1. Some people are worried that it is a meteorite. It is currently tens of millions of miles away and has a shape of thousands of meters. A disaster may occur."

"2. Some people feel that if a meteorite fell, they need to find out!"

"3. Some people believe that objects falling from outer space should not be touched or studied easily to avoid bringing unpredictable viruses!"

"As for aliens, they are not included in the discussion and summary."

"I think the results of everyone's discussion are all important. I think every item has been voted on by a show of hands. What do you think?"

As soon as the leader finished speaking, everyone started to raise their hands!

"I agree to vote!"

"I also agree to vote!"

"I don't agree with voting. You shouldn't think about unknown dangers!"

Soon, most people agreed to vote, but some people did not agree to vote!

The leader nodded, "Okay!"

"Disagreeing with the voters is the third issue. Meetings must always have a result."

"Let's start voting on the first question. If the meteorite is not rubbed away by the atmosphere by then, we will definitely discuss with the city lords of the four cities to deal with the disaster it will cause."

"They must also know the path of meteorites now. After all, they are more technologically advanced than us. We feel it is necessary to communicate with them in advance to prepare for the consequences of a disaster."

"It cannot be ruled out that the orbit of the meteorite will change and leave the direction of the blue planet."

"If we go to discuss it, there is another biggest obstacle, and that is that Piaocheng likes to monopolize alien things and is unwilling to have anything to do with us in advance."

"I agree to send someone to discuss and vote 1!"

"I don't agree to send him to discuss voting 2!"

"Stay neutral and roll 3!"

"The voting begins!"

As soon as the leader finished speaking, the commentators began to vote on information.

Soon the large LCD screen began to display data.

Agree to vote: 90%!

Disagree and vote: 9%

Neutral votes: 1%

The leader saw the data on the screen, nodded and said: "Okay, the vote on the first question is established."

The leader continued in a serious tone: "Since everyone has different opinions, let's vote on the second question."

"If it's a meteorite, should we convince Piaocheng to join the expedition together!"

"The voting begins!"

"I agree to send people to Antarctica to vote 1!"

"I don't agree with sending people to vote 2!"

"Stay neutral and roll 3!"

As soon as the leader finished speaking, the commentators began to vote on information.

Soon the large LCD screen began to display data.

Agree to vote: 60%!

Disagree and vote: 30%

Neutral votes: 10%

The leader nodded, "The second question is established!"

"The third question in our vote is related to the fact that many people disagree, that is, if we can go to outer space objects because of unpredictable dangers!"

"Old rules, everyone starts voting!"

Soon the large LCD screen began to display data.

Agree to vote: 51%!

Disapprove and vote: 48%

Neutral votes: 1%

The leader saw the data on the screen and said: "It seems that everyone is still in awe of unknown problems!"

The leader felt confident at this moment. He turned to look at the assistant next to him and said, "Go and get through to the leader in Piaocheng!"

"Yes!"

Soon the call was connected to the top management of Piaocheng!

It turns out they were discussing this too!

Since satellites showed that the trajectory of the meteorite was very dangerous, they did not dare to take it lightly, after all, it was very close to their territory!

After a series of discussions between senior leaders of the two cities, there was no result.
Chapter completed!
