The preparations White was talking about were referring to a Foundation diving team that entered the seabed a week before us.
Before we arrived at this base, this diving team arrived here first. Their job was not to investigate the spacecraft, but to find a way to enter the spacecraft for us before we officially launched the investigation.
Because the spacecraft is currently lying on the seabed a thousand feet deep, it is completely impossible to use ordinary methods, such as directly opening a large hole on the surface of the spacecraft for entry and exit.
It is impossible to directly salvage the spacecraft from the water, because the spacecraft is almost the size of a football field. There is no salvage ship in the world that can salvage such a huge object.
So the last solution people from the Foundation came up with was to install a hydraulic cover on the surface of the spacecraft that can drain the seawater in a certain space, and then work inside the hydraulic cover to find a way to create a structure that allows us to enter the spacecraft.
of the entrance and exit.
While installing the water pressure cover, the diving team accidentally discovered a place that might be the door of a UFO, which made the entire work progress a lot faster. Because according to the diving team’s advance information,
After investigation, they found that the hatch seemed to be able to be opened from the outside with current human technology, so that there was no need to work hard to open another large hole on the surface of the flying object.
Right now, while White is talking to us, the screen behind him is also showing the camera footage of the diving team. The diving team in the screen is ready to open the door and is just waiting for us to come over and open the door.
You can enter the spaceship.
After listening to White's words, Mike, a NASA aerospace technology expert, asked: "Colonel, are you sure we really have a way to open the hatch of this thing? This is an alien thing..."
"Yes... Dean, ask the diving team to point the camera at the hatch."
White gave an order to Dean, the male staff member next to the console. After a while, he saw on the screen behind him that the people from the diving team controlled their camera and pointed the lens at a wall.
On this metal wall, we can clearly see that there is a metal area separated from the surrounding area by thin black lines. If we only look at the thin black lines on the edge of this area, we can see that these thin lines
The area surrounded by the line looks like a metal hatch.
"What you see now is the hatch that the diving team found. In addition, if you look at the raised part on the side of the hatch, the sonar response shows that this bump is probably the switch of the hatch."
Mike asked: "How high is this hatch?"
"Almost 6 feet (1.8 meters)."
"Isn't that about the same size and height as the hatch of our spaceship?"
Elizabeth immediately said after hearing this: "Is it true? If that's the case, then the altitude of the aliens flying this UFO may be similar to that of us humans."
White held his chin and said in surprise: "Is that so? This seems to be a very important clue. Dean, enter this conclusion into the expedition record. Also tell the diving team that the expedition team has arrived at the base. We will be there soon."
They will start trying to enter the spacecraft. Their work has been completed. They can take the submarine that sent us back first, and the investigation team will take over the rest."
Upon hearing this, the male staff member at the console immediately used the intercom to call the diving team outside.
At this time, Elizabeth suddenly said to White: "Colonel White, do we really want to open this hatch?"
White turned his head: "What do you mean?"
Elizabeth said: "Why haven't we considered what we should do if the aliens in this spacecraft are unfriendly? What if the spacecraft is not carrying intelligent creatures, but aliens?"
White smiled and said: "Interesting insights, Dr. Elizabeth." Although he said this, White's next actions showed that he didn't care about Elizabeth's opinion at all, because this time he did not act like he just did.
That would allow Dean to record Elizabeth's words.
At this moment, the agent Harris beside us also said suddenly: "Dr. Elizabeth, if it is really an alien, you don't have to worry, I will deal with them for you."
"Yes." White turned his head and smiled at Harris, "He's right, Harris is specifically here to do this."
Amidst the laughter between the two of them, Dr. Elizabeth could only close her mouth in dissatisfaction.
Not long after that, the people from the diving team got on the submarine we came from and returned to the sea. After they left with their luggage, it was our investigation team's turn to take action.
When I was changing my wetsuit, I saw Mo Xi putting on her wetsuit absentmindedly while focusing on a tablet computer in her hand. I remember that she got the computer from the two logistics staff before.
.
Out of curiosity, I asked: "Dr. Mo, what are you doing? Everyone needs to change clothes."
Mo Xi shook the tablet in her hand at me, and then said: "I was looking at the foundation's previous investigation records of this spacecraft. There are some very interesting things in it..."
"interesting?"
"Yes, according to the Foundation's preliminary investigation, they found that the technology used by this flying object does not seem to be much higher than that of our human society. In particular, the metal elements collected from the outer shell of this spacecraft do not actually have any
It's not something you can't find on Earth. Just from this point of view, our original judgment of this spacecraft was very problematic."
"Dr. Mo, which judgment do you think is wrong?"
Suddenly, White, who was also changing his diving suit, intervened between me and Mo Xi. This guy seemed to have been eavesdropping while I was talking to Mo Xi.
However, Mo Xi didn't care much about his behavior. She replied: "Actually, except for the large structure and unknown energy source, this spaceship does not look like a civilization much higher than ours.
It was made by aliens, so I suspect that this spaceship is probably made by an alien civilization with a civilization similar to humans, or... we humans are the ones who built this spacecraft!"
"We humans? No, this is impossible!" White shook his head and explained Mo Xi's speculation to others in English. The result immediately aroused discussion among others. What I didn't expect was that,
There are actually some people who agree with Mo Xi's speculation.
The aerospace technology expert Mike agreed: "It is indeed possible. Although I know that it is impossible to build such a huge spacecraft with human technology, there is a question here, that is, is this thing really a spaceship?
Colonel White, one thing I don’t know if you’ve noticed is that the way this spacecraft appears is very strange. Generally speaking, if this thing is really a spaceship, it should fall from the sky through the atmosphere. In this way
With the size of a spacecraft, even if it had fully decelerated when it crashed, it would definitely have a huge momentum. However, the fisherman did not mention this at all during the interrogation. According to him, the spacecraft was simply
It seems as if it appeared directly on the sea, rather than falling into the sea from the sky."
White waved his hand and said: "Hey, please, that's just a fisherman who doesn't know anything. His testimony can only be used as a reference and cannot be taken seriously."
Mike asked him back: "But so far, most of what the fisherman said has been proven, hasn't it?"
So White could only shrug and said: "Okay, you are right, but don't forget, if this is really an alien spacecraft, they may also use a flight method far beyond our imagination.
,such as Vap jump?”
Mike still shook his head firmly and said: "You have watched too many science fiction movies. Let alone whether the Vap jump can really be realized. Even if it can be realized, it is absolutely impossible to do it close to the ground, because according to the space distortion theory
explain……"
Seeing that Mike seemed to have a tendency to start talking, White simply chose to ignore it. He put on his helmet, and then said to us through the intercom in the helmet: "Okay everyone, the lecture will wait until we come back, no matter what the fate of this spaceship is."
It's not aliens, our investigation still needs to continue. Now everyone put on your equipment immediately, we are ready to set off immediately."
