Chapter 1235 They are hindering academic freedom!

8days ago Celebrity fiction 13
In a conference room in the White House in Washington, USA, the atmosphere is somewhat subtle and depressing.

Since last year's conflict in the Western Pacific, the number of times such as locking all high-level advisers, ministerial officials and the president in the same room to discuss national affairs has been much higher.

The only difference is that sitting in the Secretary of State is a new face.

The Earth Defense Alliance is rising, and has even faintly shaken NATO's position as the world's number one military body.

Political, economic, and even cultural, the United States is facing unprecedented challenges, and even the era of Truman and Kennedy has never been so severe.

After all, at that time, the United States was only facing a giant covered in muscles but terminally ill. Now standing on the ring and competing with the United States was an Iron Man who used technology to arm himself to his teeth...

No, this statement is not accurate enough. After all, Iron Man's technology is probably a little more realistic than theirs...

Star Ring Trade intends to hold a biotechnology summit in Star Ring City at the end of January to exhibit the trophy on Mars.What's that name?Devil bug?Hell... Curiosity has been running on Mars for so many years, but he has never seen a cell.NASA Director Bolden looked at the report in his hand with exhaustion, and made the report weakly.

The NASA Director sat at a table to discuss issues with the Secretary of State, the President, the Secretary of Commerce, and even the Minister of the Interior. I am afraid that this treatment was only received during the Cold War era of the space competition.

However, Bolden was completely unhappy because both the space elevator and the lunar colonization plan were far away.

Faced with the unattainable gap in aerospace technology, even Elon Musk, known as the genius, and his SpaceX were helpless and could only pick up a bit of soup behind the Star Ring Trade's butt.

Can you find a way to be qualified to participate in that biotech summit?America must have first-hand information about Martian species!Otherwise, the technological gap between us and Starring trade will only grow bigger and bigger.Secretary of Defense Carter said with a serious expression.

Qualifications to participate in the summit?Haha, of course there is.The New York Times, the Washington Post... Any media you can name has received an invitation.The chief of staff leaned on the chair and turned the ballpoint pen in his hand with an ugly face. The problem is that no American scientific research institution or university received an invitation to jointly research, and we were completely excluded.

They are hindering academic freedom!Sitting next to Minister Carter, the director of the Advanced Projects Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense cursed.

Professors from Harvard University and MIT have already condemned us.Hillary glanced at the officials present and finally stopped his eyes on the Secretary of State's face. What we need now is a solution.

I will try my best, but don't have too much hope.The newly appointed Secretary of State rubbed his sore eyebrows. The Star Ring Trade blocked us in aerospace technology for a few days. It is unlikely that they would make concessions today... Kerry is an expert on the issue of the new country, but you know

Kerry resigned from his position as Secretary of State at this time.The Democratic Party whip whispered.

Can you convince him to come back?Hillary looked at the party whip and asked.

It was very difficult. He insisted on participating in the pre-select in March and even wrote the speech.You know, someone supports him, and the worst thing is that the opinions within the party are now split, and there are also voices supporting him.Thank God, now we have to face the Republican Party and the New Country at the same time, this damn Wall Street…

Hearing this sentence, the crow's feet at the corners of Hillary's eyes wrinkled with a hint of bitter helplessness.

She no longer knows how to play the next move.

At this moment, Bolden suddenly spoke.

Why don’t we start the Mars login plan in advance?

As soon as the words fell, the eyes in the conference room looked over in unison.

Facing the eyes of the president and ministerial officials, Bolden took a deep breath and continued.

If we cannot break the ice diplomatically, we can only make technical attempts.

The question is, is our current technology OK?Has SpaceX terminated the development of manned rockets?Secretary of Defense Carter frowned.

MCT, Mars immigration transport aircraft, SpaceX has never stopped Mars colonization plan, and now the most critical technology has been broken through.Bolden looked at Hillary and said seriously, it was okay to give a one-way ticket.

After a while of silence, Hillary spoke.

Tell me, what is the meaning of doing this?

If she cannot find a suitable reason to convince Congress to allocate funds, even if she agrees with the plan in her heart, it will be meaningless.

It's too much significance.Bolden said that the moon has been monopolized and the star ring trade cannot continue to monopolize the future of mankind.Even if we put a national flag on Mars and throw a few people to live on it, it can add a lot of bargaining chips to us.

The moon's ice and several craters with large reserves of rare earths were shamelessly occupied by the first-comer Star Ring Trade.

Even if there was no mining, a survey station was built on it.

Although countries have begun to establish their own lunar investigation stations through the lunar heat, it is impossible to solve the most critical drinking water and oxygen problems, and it is almost impossible to develop into colonization.

In particular, Star Ring Trade was domineeringly refusing to sell drinking water, oxygen and electricity to inspection stations outside the member states of the Earth Defense League on the grounds of limited resources.

The high maintenance fees have left these inspection stations in a state of insufficient income, let alone expansion.

However, this is not the most important thing...

After pausing for a moment, Bolden continued to look at the president who was still hesitating.

In addition, I suspect that the discovery of the Star Ring Trade on Mars is probably not just a bug.

Hillary suddenly seemed to have thought of something, gasped and looked at Bolden in shock.

You mean...

That's right, it may be related to extraterrestrial civilization.Bolden nodded and seriously suggested that if they disagree with our participation in the research, then we will go up and take a look.

There is more than one way to Mars.

If Star Ring Trade is unwilling to sell tickets to Mars, then build an ocean-going ship belonging to the United States.

While the White House was preparing for the attitude of the Star Ring Trade, only nine soldiers and the only infantry chariot remained in the Mars colony tens of millions of kilometers away, assembled at the door of the colony to prepare to rescue the engineers trapped in the 071 mine.

Reinforcements from Star Ring City will take two weeks to arrive, while the oxygen on the rover can only last for as long as two weeks.

The risk of rescue is very high, and everyone understands this.

However, no one of the soldiers who were ready to go in the infantry chariot raised doubts about the rescue.

Star Ring Trade never left its own tradition of running away.

No matter who the opponent is.

Regardless of whether the opponent is a human or not.
