The Age of the 21st Century Magazine

There's a view of Titan Cowboy Base on TV.

Titan Cowboy's base has huge runways and massive periods where transporters rise and fall.

[MBS News] I'm a steel journalist.

Now I'm on the runway where the test launch of the space shuttle Atlas will take place.

Atlas is so...]

A camera illuminated the hangar building with a description from a local reporter.

A hangar that actually seems a lot poorer to put in a great space shuttle called Atlas.

On the outside, it looks more like a warehouse building than a spaceship hangar.

Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun

The chaotic firecrackers on the roof of the building, the colorful bands and the colored paper were scattered.

The door of the hangar opens with the sound of intertwining.

Atlas' hull, which was deep inside the hangar, gradually appeared outside.

The left and right sides of a huge hull over 70 meters long have triangular bow wings.

Wings for re-entry into the atmosphere from space orbit.

“Atlas is finally coming out of the cycle, revealing its magnificence.

This is a reminder of the re-opening of the lost space age.

It's huge, it's magnificent, it's wonderful. ”

In front of the camera, MBS's Korean journalist was very excited and raised his voice.

Support jigsaw ~ ~

Waaaaaaah!

People's applause and roar burst with an instant performance by the famous American rock star.

To make the first appearance dramatically, three Titans appeared side-by-side from inside the hangar.

Other than Titan, the cowboys in Talos suits also walked out with heat.

They are raising the DL44 Blaster towards the sky instead of the master Beast Hunter.

Of course, the real ray of destruction, like Star Wars, is a replica that doesn't go out.

However, the meaning of Captain Solo's babysitting made the appearance of the spaceship very dramatic.

Millennium Phelcan, a Solo exclusive spacecraft, was the fastest spacecraft in the galaxy.

So people are genuinely cheering at the appearance of Atlas.

“U.S.A. U.S.A.! US Robotics!”

People shout in unison in defense of America and US Robotics.

In fact, the developer of the shuttle is DARPA, not US Robotics.

However, everyone who has seen the mark of US Robotics on the fuselage is thinking of it as a civilian spacecraft.

After the president of USRobotics made a celebratory speech, he broke the champagne in the fuselage of Atlas.

Three pilots in state-of-the-art new spacesuits appeared side by side and boarded the Atlas.

[Gentlemen, let's begin the first test flight of the world's largest space shuttle Atlas.

Atlas equipped eight AF3029 array engines.

The AF3029 engine is equipped with an ion propulsion and fusion impulse engine from Navis.

A parallel connection with the latest engineering from USRobotics [...]

With the description of M.C. on TV, the engine of the AF3029 emits a white light.

The Atlas space shuttle flies smoothly up the runway.

The people on TV were cheering together.

Finally, a successful takeoff of the space shuttle Atlas.

Atlas quickly rose to an altitude of 30,000 feet and boasted robust flight performance.

Navis headquarters.

Instead of the scene, the three male doctors who were forgetting Mr. Beauty's special lunchbox,

I'm watching Atlas' launch on TV.

“Argh... Atlas of US Robotics...

After all, it's a spaceship made of Korean parts. ”

JiHoon rolled up his mouth like he was watching a cute toy.

“Well, the flight control software is a custom version of ROS Mini.

The engines are actually ours, and the fuselage is our alloy panels.

The refractory panel for re-entry into Earth orbit is also a Navisse carbon ceramic panel. "

Changsoo emphatically said.

In fact, it turns out that the Atlas spacecraft is the Maid in Korea,

Even if it was Assembled in USA, there was no big deal.

“I think my first test flight will be a success, and I'll be building a space dockyard soon.

Is the age of extraterrestrial exploration coming soon? ”

JiHoon shook his head at Nam's words.

“Even if you look at history, the military use of Dockyard is better than extraterrestrial exploration.

Even if you look at the history of other planets... ”

“... you'd make space command Santer in orbit, wouldn't you? ”

“Khhhh... that's it or I don't know if it's a party.

Before that, China and Russia will tackle strongly.. ”

“It turns out China and Russia are too quiet.

Something's wrong. "

“Well... the great nations are getting hit, but it has nothing to do with us. ”

In fact, Dr. Nam was not very interested in American space development plans.

Rather of interest was the Akula Morez Submarine, which was being refurbished at the Macau Islands Shipyard.

When it was finished, I wanted to enjoy the cruise in the sea all I could.

Chinese State Secretary.

Emergency Defense Measures meetings are being held with military officials and management members from each district.

“Commissioner Lew, the American space shuttle has successfully entered stratospheric orbit. ”

Everyone had an intriguing look at the words of the South Navy District Commander, Yang Political Member.

This is because we know very well what this means.

China, which was holding back the military intent of the spacecraft, stabbed the United States with a diplomatic vote.

It used a private company called US Robotics as a shield for Atlas.

In fact, institutions of this magnitude capable of building large space shuttles,

It does not exist outside NASA or DARPA under the Ministry of Defense.

“What do you think of this, comrades of the Technical Commissioner? ”

Question from Commissioner Liao, Managing Director of the Ministry of Defence.

One of the senior members of the Technical Bureau under the Ministry of Defense made a gesture on a large screen.

Then a graphical screen representing the Earth's orbit appeared.

“An armed spaceship in space orbit is a threat to its very existence.

The main reason why the United States took the military initiative of the 20th and 21st centuries is navigational leaflets.

I took control of the whole world with sailboats. I defeated the world. ”

“So we didn't invest in harbor shear defensive power such as Dong Fung 21D missiles and assault submarines? ”

“Yes.

But armed spacecraft are so powerful that they can't be compared to navigators.

Battleships in space orbit can launch instant attacks anywhere in the world in up to three hours. ”

On the screen, with the red text "Hit in 3 hours,"

Animation of armed spacecraft orbiting the Earth was illuminated.

“Yes, but you will be constrained to place small objects in space orbit.

It still costs 5,000 yuan to put a kilo into space orbit.

It's now impossible because of space scum, too. ”

When the Tech Managing Member from Qinghwa Air Force expressed a negative opinion,

A member of the Technical Bureau replied that this did not seem to be the case.

“The United States will not build just one 200 tonne payload space shuttle.

And when we built the dockyard in space with the materials that were loaded into that shuttle,

The next step they will take is the construction of a space orbit cruiser.

If you drop one tungsten arrow in space orbit, you don't know what happens.

I think you know that very well. ”

“Umm...”

“Moreover, the bigger problem is that space interception systems are available on large vessels.

The SLBM and ICBM of our People's Liberation Army are all disabled. ”

According to the members of the Technical Bureau, only then did the members realize the seriousness of the situation.

If a cruiser is floating in space orbit, it makes it very easy to intercept ballistic missiles with laser weapons or missiles using nuclear weapons.

because it is not affected by scattering phenomena or Earth gravity like the atmosphere.

“Umm.. This is a very serious problem. ”

“Yes, this is the biggest threat to China's security.

Worst case where a large combat ship is assembled in a Space Dock Yard,

All strategic weapons held by our Chinese forces can be disabled. ”

“Huh! This is something that must be stopped. ”

“Just as we didn't stop Atlas from launching the test this time,

It won't be easy next time.

The members who do not know that Atlas is the work of Darpa are not here.

But it didn't stop me.

What if we put private companies in charge of building the next dockyard? ”

“No diplomatic pressure, comrade Liao."

“Yes, this is a serious violation of the space treaty.

You're not armed right now. ”

“Yes, you can't fly an armed spaceship directly into orbit and watch. ”

The meeting followed in a serious atmosphere.

Comments were expressed on mobilizing diplomatic means, both commercial and technical.

However, diplomatic solutions were never easy.

After all, it was a matter of mobilizing military pressure together.

He then commented on Liao, managing director of the Department of Defense.

“Eventually... we'll have to build a private corporation like the United States and jump into building a space warship. ”

“You want to build a spaceship like America?

Even if we go into development now, we'll be a long way behind. ”

“What's to keep you from making it?

We have enough spaceship launch technology and space station technology. ”

“A 200-ton space shuttle is impossible with our current technology. ”

“.. there is one place with such skill. ”

“Where is it? ”

“It's not Korean Navy technology.

Atlas' AF3029 array engines and flight systems are all core parts of Navisse, right? ”

“Yes... eventually, I'll have to ask Navis for technical assistance again."

Managing members recalled the cerebral divisions of Navis.

Nam Ph.D., JiHoon, Changsoo, Hope.

All members of the Board of Directors know their names.

High-level politicians have no interest in the cerebral cortex of a corporation, but Navis is no exception at all.

because it has such a huge impact on the whole world.

Negotiating with the cerebellum is as difficult as their influence.

I don't know what the hell I'm thinking.

In short, the cerebral divisions of Navis are just leaving without thinking.

The fact that the Chinese enjoy an ambiguous method of reconciliation and do not reveal their innate intentions is not difficult to understand.

It is because the beginning of all Chinese action begins around us.

After all, everything is tied to the string of Kwansi, whose relationship and interests are intertwined.

The Chinese never act alone.

But the Navis are completely different.

Even from the point of view of the Chinese who read well in people, I have no idea what is inside them.

It is a Jungle South without any involvement and without any measures.

To tell you the truth, all the cerebrals are doing the same thing, and they're just all crazy.

However, it cannot be better if we look at the results.

That's why it's a problem.

Obviously it wasn't meant to be meticulous, but if you look at the results, it seems like it was meant to be meticulous from the beginning.

That's why I'm a scary opponent.

I'm trying to think of them and ask for something.

I was troubled by the executive committee, especially the Foreign Affairs committee.

So when China has problems with Atlas and the Navis cerebral palsy,

Hope, one of those ceremonies, was overseeing the last task of the submarine.
