In space, the Tiangong space station is 400 kilometers above the ground.
Several astronauts stationed at the station looked at the bright nuclear explosion thousands of kilometers away in horror. Although they had avoided the time of the explosion, they still cautiously observed through their sunglasses.
Japanese astronaut Shinji Hirose murmured: "Is this going to be a nuclear war? Can we still return to Blue Star?"
Rakshasa astronaut Steinov made a sign of the cross on his chest and said: "Thank God, fortunately the Tiangong Space Station has been protected against electromagnetic pulse attacks, otherwise we might be trapped and die here."
Commander Ding Junshan said: "With all this skill, there is no second intercontinental missile launch, so it shouldn't be a nuclear war.
Children, report to the ground command center immediately. Everyone, we need to guard against nuclear bomb fragments!"
Ding Junshan's words caused everyone's expressions to change instantly.
The Tiangong space station operating in Blue Star orbit is actually very fragile. If a large number of satellite debris occurs, it will definitely be a disaster.
Hirose Shinji immediately said: "Tong Fei, you have to ask the command center if we need an emergency evacuation!"
He didn't believe there was a way to deal with the overwhelming nuclear bomb fragments.
Tong Fei had already started calling the ground command center.
"Don't panic, we've only been here for two days, let's see if we can get through this."
Ding Junshan comforted them. This group of astronauts from various countries had only been at the space station for two days. An emergency retreat would not only be a waste of resources, but also psychologically difficult.
Ding Junshan called on Renel, another Gallic astronaut, to mobilize the telescope to monitor the whereabouts of nuclear bomb fragments.
The continuous nuclear bomb explosion just now was located 1,500 kilometers higher than the ground, which is 1,100 kilometers above the orbit of the Tiangong space station.
These fragments will not fall quickly, but once they fall, the speed should be accelerated to the point that the Tiangong space station cannot bear it.
Only two minutes later, the ground command center had not yet made up its mind to let them evacuate. Renelle had already shouted in surprise: "Oh my God, a 'cloud' suddenly appeared at the 1,200-kilometer orbit!"
It's going up, as if it's collecting those falling nuclear bomb fragments!"
All the astronauts in the space station rushed to where Renelle was, and each one took turns observing through the astronomical telescope.
"I can't imagine where this 'cloud' came from and how it moves upwards?"
"It's like a tablecloth, it takes away all the trash at once."
"Are aliens helping to clean up nuclear explosion debris?"
…
In the western United States, it was just after nine o'clock in the evening.
Northwest of Lavis City is the boundless desert, home to the world-famous Area 51.
Some people say that Area 51 is a base for Americans to study aliens.
Many experts scoffed at this, believing that it was just an air base for the US military's experimental aircraft.
The so-called UFOs are just some verification aircraft of the US military.
In the first half of that night, many people saw many lights falling in the sky. However, when some people wanted to check, they found that they were blocked by the garrison.
Helenz is a member of the North American UFO Association. He has stayed in Lavis City for a long time, not for gambling, but to frequently take photos near Area 51.
After tonight's light incident, Helenz drove to the scene as soon as possible, but unfortunately the military arrived earlier than him.
Originally this was a flat wilderness. Even if the military blocked it and prevented him from getting closer, he could still see something through the telescope.
However, at this moment, a huge cloth was erected around a large area, and there was a soldier every 5 meters outside the cloth.
This made it impossible for Helenz to know what was inside the cloth, let alone get close.
He drove around the perimeter. The desert was completely surrounded by the military. It was obvious that something terrible had happened tonight.
Curiosity kept him from going far, and Helenz was prepared to spend time here to see when the military would evacuate or transport something away.
Just after midnight, when Helenz was drowsy, a sudden violent vibration came.
He even felt his off-road vehicle jump a few times.
"earthquake!"
This was Helenz's instant thought. After all, the strong earthquake zone on the west coast of the United States has been experiencing constant small earthquakes in recent years.
Even if the northwest side of Lavis is a certain distance away from the strong earthquake zone, it will still be affected.
The shock lasted for less than ten seconds. Helenz recalled that it felt like the off-road vehicle was beating seven or eight times.
He got out of the car and looked around, seeing the wind whistling by on the wasteland under the starry sky.
Helenz suddenly opened his mouth wide, his face full of shock.
Under the starry sky, in the distance in the direction of Area 51, a black shadow rose into the sky, about several thousand meters high!
He quickly found a telescope, and under the night vision lens, he saw that the black shadow was filled with dust.
"Something exploded!" This was the thought that flashed through Helenz's mind.
At the same time, on the east coast of the United States, Washington, DC.
General Curtis was connecting with the Almighty Master in the office lounge to report the interception of the nuclear bomb, but as soon as he finished speaking, the tablet suddenly turned into a black screen.
No matter what he said, there was no new response from the tablet, which surprised him.
He put away the tablet and walked back to the office. Before he could sit down, there was a sharp knock on the door.
"Please come in."
The adjutant pushed open the door with an anxious look and reported hurriedly: "General, we just received a report that the 'farm' was attacked."
"What? What kind of attack did you get?" Curtis couldn't believe it.
"The Farm" is the code name given to Area 51 by the military. This location is in the interior of the United States. There are air force bases and missile bases there, and there are troops stationed nearby. How could it be attacked?
"It was reported by the surrounding garrison that the entire 'farm' area collapsed on a large scale, and a line of dust shot up thousands of meters into the sky. What exactly happened there, the garrison is still investigating further."
"Go to the command center."
Due to major military operations tonight, even though it is past midnight, many people are still on duty at the command center of the Ministry of National Defense.
Seeing General Curtis appear, General Vandiat, who was guarding here, immediately said: "A new notification has been sent, and the nuclear bomb stored at the 'Farm' has exploded."
"What? How could those nuclear bombs explode? Did someone sneak in to cause sabotage?" Curtis couldn't believe it.
The nuclear bomb on the "farm" is part of the land-based nuclear force on combat readiness in the US military's nuclear arsenal. How could it suddenly explode on its own?
If it were so unsafe, could the nuclear arsenal still be there?
Vandiat shook his head and said: "I don't know why it exploded. Our nuclear experts are on their way, but I have already connected. The experts said that the nuclear bomb does not have the corresponding secret key and should not be detonated."
Curtis suddenly thought that contact with the Almighty Lord was suddenly interrupted, and an idea suddenly came to his mind.
He didn't think about it further and continued to ask: "Have the live images from the 'farm' been transmitted? How much is the damage?"
Vandiat said to a school official: "Play the live footage you just received."
A video immediately played on the big screen.
This should have been taken aerially by the local garrison’s helicopter night vision equipment.
In the picture, a huge funnel-shaped crater appeared on the ground, with a diameter of at least about 3,000 meters.
In the sky above this huge crater, a line of smoke thousands of meters high is slowly dissipating.
There is also a large area of ground collapse near the giant crater. It is obvious that all nearby underground bases were collapsed by the explosion shock wave.
It looks like the entire "farm" has been completely destroyed!
"General Vandiat, this smoke should contain radioactive substances. Try to let the smoke fall down on the spot. If it spreads to Lavis City, there will be big trouble."
Vandiat nodded and said: "Yes, I asked about it when I was on the line with the nuclear experts. Unfortunately, the weather here is fine now and there will be no rainfall in the near future.
The current wind direction is indeed blowing in the direction of Lavis City, so I have notified the relevant departments to recruit firefighting aircraft and use water spray to bring down the smoke and dust."
Curtis nodded with satisfaction and said: "This is a good idea. In addition, send robot troops into the ruins of the 'farm' and try to find useful things."
Vandiat signaled to an adjutant to record the order and then went to deliver the order.
Then he added: "Director Caesar said that two hours ago, the deputy director of the core base in the 'farm' mobilized a group of Gia agents to round up a software expert near Lavis City who defected a few days ago.
Later, a platoon from the local garrison and an armed helicopter were used. As a result, everyone's vehicles were destroyed by the light emitted by unknown objects in the sky.
Only one soldier survived, and this man claimed to have encountered a UFO.
You said, if the nuclear bomb was suddenly detonated now, is it related to the UFO?"
Curtis frowned and said: "Do you think there are aliens visiting? They discovered the spacecraft in the 'Farm', so they detonated our nuclear bomb to destroy it?"
Vandiat nodded slightly and said: "Maybe this UFO and that spacecraft came from the same place, and they destroyed it just to prevent us from continuing to study it."
"Then why did it rescue the software expert? Is it to study us?" Curtis asked doubtfully.
In fact, in Curtis' mind, a bold idea had already arisen.
