In Pentagon, the Emergency Measures Meeting continues today.

The Secretary of State asked the Captain of the Space Force.

“How much satellite power do you currently have available, Commander? ”

“floating communications satellite Nova and reconnaissance satellite KH12 in Europe and Africa,

All U.S. military satellites are out of communication, except for a total of three. Minister ”

“Stage three... should I say thank God I'm still there? ”

A lot of military satellites that have turned into space debris...

The minister fell into a collapse.

What can we do with three military satellites?

We need at least six satellites and at least 10 GPS satellites to cover the entire planet.

Space troops are not the only problem.

The minister asked, looking at the naval admiral who would be most severely hit.

“How's the Navy doing? ”

A naval admiral with four stars on the white conquest ledge replied to the minister.

“More than 50 pros of naval air combat power are currently down.

Particularly due to the loss of meteorological satellites, we are currently experiencing very difficult operations in the Atlantic. ”

The navy, which also relies heavily on satellite power, was hit.

Naval fleet combat is heavily influenced by storm-like weather conditions.

Even if it's a state-of-the-art port, it's impossible to take off a fighter in a rainy weather.

Though I expected results, I felt good when I heard from Admiral Mak.

“Umm... but you must have a lot of difficulty with naval operations. ”

“Yes.

It seems impossible to predict the weather in real time.. ”

“First of all, we need to figure out how to use the Alliance's local weather radar.

What is the status of the C4I command? ”

“The Integrated Command System is not a problem yet.

More than 10 Iridium commercial communications satellites remain in orbit, continuing to communicate using buffer relays.

Of course, I can't predict how long it'll be safe. ”

The communication problem was at least better.

It is fortunate that few commercial low-orbit satellites remain in space orbit.

“Well, I'm sure you'll need to fire up some military reserve satellites right away.

Before that, there's no way to deal with that space scum... ”

There was no pointed way for the spectator to do it because of space scum.

You have to shoot the satellite again to increase the amount of trash.

That's how America suffers from space debris.

Hope returned to Monster Hunter after the holiday.

As soon as I got back, I met a monster hunter who was paralyzed.

Among other things, the aerospace team, which is heavily affected by satellites, has a major gel problem.

Hope asked the Chief of the Aviation Support Team in the maintenance bay where the AN124 was normally maintained.

“What is your current support issue? ”

“The satellite communications device is down due to a communication satellite problem.

All communications satellites are dead, and there's at least a few stages of iridium left.

It's being used by the U.S. Army first.

GPS guided parachutes are still problematic. ”

“Hmm... Satellites are a problem. This is a problem I need to talk to Dr. Nam. ”

When I didn't see the pointy head of hope, I finally asked Dr. Nam for help.

Dr. Nam arrived on a CH53K helicopter.

Nam has been in Monster Hunter for a long time, looking around for hope and facilities to talk to.

“Yes, Hope. You have a lot of problems? ”

“Yes, Dr. Nam, the satellite is complicated right now. ”

“Hmm... satellites. For now, we need to get rid of that troublesome space scum.

The question is, how many years did you kick all that space junk out? ”

“So there's no way? ”

“Well, if you invest unlimited time and money,

It's not a ton or two, it's thousands of tons of scrap metal flying at a speed of five kilometers per second.

How many years did you put that away?

Besides, I have an international patent on all useful space garbage collection methods.

Even if we try to clear the space orbit around Korea with our money, we have to negotiate with patentees in the United States and Europe.

It bothers me to step up. "

Nam shook his head and told a negative story.

There was no solution to space debris, not even Dr. Nam of Heaven.

It's not even a dream to put a satellite in orbit until we get rid of space debris.

Once you've put it in orbit, it's like adding a piece of trash to the universe.

Without satellites, there is no way to control metal storage vessels floating on the high seas.

“So how do we solve the global communications problem?

The bearing system is going to be hit by communications right now. ”

“Hmm.. It's a communication problem.. I heard that our shipping companies are also hit hard.

Well, we have to use a more primitive approach. ”

“Some way. ”

Curious of hope, Dr. Nam replied as he recalled the African piracy crisis.

“Last time we hit a pirate, you saw a large server room on a metal vault, right? ”

“Yes, there were some very high-performance servers. ”

“You should use that metal vault as a busbar."

“Busbar?”

“Yeah, more than 10 of our metal warships are almost anchored on the high seas."

“Yes."

“What can I do with the Metal Warehouse as an Operations Center? ”

When Nam mentioned the Metal Storage Ship, he thought that hope seemed to use the Storage Ship as a launch platform.

“No way... you're launching a low-orbit satellite from a metal vault?

It's over-technology. It's alien or possible. ”

“No, it's not, it's more primitive than that. ”

“Something?”

Hope became curious as to how.

“How? What's the big deal?

It's a massive airship in the stratosphere.

There's nothing wrong with floating on the high seas. ”

“Ah!”

I only thought of a communications satellite. A communications airship was an unexpected method.

Simple but very effective method.

Flying an airship costs less than hundreds of billion-won satellites.

In addition, the use of high seas metal storage vessels as launching and maintenance platforms and movement control centres for aircraft will also cost very little maintenance.

There is no one to follow Dr. Nam's emergency curly hair.

“So we're going to develop it again this time? ”

“No, I want to place an entire order with an outside company or a fusion group affiliate,

About 200 planes we need right now to cover the entire global communications network?

Maybe that's what you need.

Make it easy and cooperate. Hope will take care of it.

If you need it, use it in our debit account. ”

“Yeah, I'll do that. ”

“Yeah, well, then I'm gonna have to go up to the Great War to develop the Magog again.”

“Good job, Dr. Nam. ”

Dr. Nam waved his hand and climbed into the helicopter.

Hope and each team leader was only thinking about the problem of addressing satellites and space debris.

However, the solution was surprisingly simple, so I even heard a futile thought.

I think it is desperate to change my mind if I live in the world.

Now that we've solved the satellite-related problem, there's another problem.

Hope draws an electric car and moves towards a special operations team with Yejin and Aran.

It is not easy to find people in a facility because it is a monster hunter, a super-sized facility with 4 runways.

The facility site of Monster Hunter Company is so large that it cannot be moved unless it is a car or electric car.

After two runways that were nearly four kilometers long, I was able to meet Yejin and Aran after going to the Operations Team building.

“Ye Jin.”

“Huh?”

“I'm here...”

Ye Jin, who had come and farmed a little, answered with a slightly burnished face.

“Er... brother."

“Did you eat? ”

“No."

“Do you want to go eat? ”

“...... Let's go”

Seeing Yejin trying to go to eat, hope grabbed Aran's arm as Aran hesitated.

“Aran should go eat too."

Ye Jin nodded his head before Zig Shi 'an.

“Yeah, let's go eat, Aran."

I rode two men into an electric car.

Compared to the previous year, Ye Jin definitely changed his mood.

There was such a storm, but I don't want to break up with Yejin either.

Of course, it is horrible to think that hope also breaks up with Ye Jin.

Maybe Ye Jin is organizing his thoughts right now.

The heart of a woman is unknown.

Hope has already cleared up the idea.

I decided to be audacious. I came here with such a heart.

Monster Hunter's Restaurant is a buffet.

Hope sat face to face with Yejin Aran in a bowl with a grain rice, pork cooked salad, and sunkimchi tofu.

“Ye Jin, eat well. ”

“Yes."

“Even my brother.”

“Yes, Arando."

Hope talks to Ye Jin as she eats.

“Ye Jin, how are things with the company? Nothing hard yet? ”

“Well, just because you're a good team leader. ”

I answered everyday ordinary questions.

“Yeah? Well, that's a good thing. I'm gonna go check on the house this week. ”

“Home?”

When Hope mentioned the house, Ye Jin showed an unexpected interest and asked.

“Yeah... I think I need to get a stable house after I've been in Monster Hunter for a long time."

“Brother, where are you going to buy a house? ”

Aran asked.

“To Hanok Village or nearby... I think Hanok fits my body. ”

“.... ”

When Hope refers to Hanok Village, Yejin's face becomes red as if the incident had come to mind.

“If you two buy a house in the previous week, of course, the houses will come, right? ”

“Of course I should go."

Aran answered first and Jejin hesitated for a moment because of the complexity of his mind.

“.. Yes.. I have to go. ”

I felt sorry for Ye Jin, but the hope to be bold for now was to push him as planned.
