"The Lord of the Rings" earned $37.82 million on its first day, winning the single-day box office champion —— Los Angeles Times

"The Lord of the Rings" earned $37.15 million again the next day, and continued to be the single-day box office champion —— Los Angeles Times

"The Lord of the Rings" once again earned $331.2 billion on the third day, topping the weekly box office, with a total box office of $108 million, becoming the fastest film to break 100 million - Los Angeles Times

"The Lord of the Rings" was released for three days, and it was unmatched in the North American box office market, and the whole of North America, from the media to ordinary audiences, everyone talked about "The Lord of the Rings"!

And just when "The Lord of the Rings" became a phenomenal movie, John boarded the plane with the production team in a low-key manner and flew to New York to complete the rest of the plot of "The Lord of the Rings".

……

10、9、8、7、6、5、4、3、2、1… Ignition!

Rumble...!

At Vandenberg Air Force Base, a Hercules launch vehicle flew into the sky with billowing smoke.

In the launch command center not far from the launch tower, a group of staff are nervously operating various instruments, although this is the 11th launch of the rocket this month, they know all the working procedures, but no one dares to take it lightly, rocket launch accidents always come and go, full of a lot of unknowns, between success and failure, sometimes just because of a screw.

"Good thrust!"

"All indicators are normal!"

"The trajectory display is normal!"

"The direction of propulsion is controlled normally!"

"Level 1 booster separation!"

"Secondary booster separation!"

"Main thruster separation!"

"The satellite is in orbit!"

"The direction is normal!"

"Satellites to reach the designated orbit!"

"All indicators are normal!"

"Commander, the 11th satellite launch mission has been successfully completed!"

After the satellite arrived in the designated orbit, the launch mission was considered a success, and the commander in charge of directing the launch mission finally showed a smile on his serious face when he heard the report of his subordinates.

"Report to the" space-based ", transfer command!"

The commander then gave the order, and he was only responsible for the launch mission.

"Yes!"

"Space-based... Space-based, I'm Houston, the satellite has been successfully launched to reach the designated location, and the management is now handed over to you!"

A report came from the "space-based" satellite management center at Morgan Manor, thousands of miles away from Vandenberg Air Force Base, and the commander immediately ordered his subordinates to take over the management of the satellite.

"Houston, Houston, I'm the Celestial Base, and I'm ready to take over the stewardship. ”

Vandenberg Air Force Base received a response and immediately began the transfer of management.

5、4、3、2、1… Hand over!

"Report, satellite management to receive, please instruct!"

After receiving the satellite management rights from the Morgan Manor space-based satellite management center, the operators asked the on-site commander for instructions on the next mission.

"Adjust the position, dock with the parts!"

The commander quickly gave the order.

"Yes!"

Having received the command, the operator began to adjust the position of the satellite.

"3214 meters from the annex!

2269 meters away from the attachment!

Meet 18 meters with attachments, perfect angle, ready for docking!

Docking success!"

"Good!"

The commander was relieved to see that the satellite and the attachment were successfully docked, and the slightest carelessness in the docking process would destroy the satellite and the attachment.

"Turn on the satellite master program and connect to the main network!"

"The satellite master program is on, and it is connecting to the main network!"

10%

33%

65%

82%

99%

100%

"Satellite to access the mainnet!"

"Good! Reboot the main system!"

When the commander saw the satellite that had just docked to the accessory to connect to the main network, he immediately removed a key from his neck and inserted it into the console keyhole.

"Ready to reboot the main system!"

“5、4、3、2、1… Reboot!"

Click!

The commander twisted the key, and all the computers in the control center went black for a moment, and all the hosts stopped working until 30 seconds later, when the consoles worked again and the computer screens lit up again.

"The main program has been restarted successfully!"

"Start the sub-program!"

"The sub-program has been successfully launched!"

"Activate the defense program!"

"The defense program has been successfully activated!"

"Good!"

The commander showed a smile on his face, and then quickly returned to his serious appearance, walked towards a woman wearing sunglasses not far away, gave a military salute, and reported.

"Report to the commander-in-chief, the space-based system has been successfully activated!"

"Very well, clear all files, documents, and data related to space-based systems, dismantle the production workshop, and destroy all equipment!"

"Yes!"

"The work here is up to you!"

"It's the commander-in-chief!"

The woman patted the three little stars on the commander's shoulder and walked out of the control center satisfied.

This woman is none other than Xia Li.

And this space-based satellite system was also developed by her.

The space-based satellite system is not a meteorological satellite or a scientific research satellite, but a set of information processing, reconnaissance, and defense ...... as one of the multifunctional military satellite systems.

The entire satellite system is composed of a total of 89 sets of single-system satellites, and each single-system satellite is composed of a main satellite responsible for linking, calculating, and controlling the main satellite, a defense satellite, an attack satellite, a relay communication satellite, and a reconnaissance satellite.

The 89 sets of single-system satellites are divided into the earth's orbit, like a large net that wraps the whole earth, so the space-based satellite system is also called the space-based satellite system network.

The anti-missile system of the alliance state is mainly composed of three parts, the front-end, the middle-end, the end, and the well-known Desa is a set of missile defense systems that can be used at both the middle and the end.

The space-based satellite system network is multi-purpose, and can carry out anti-missile attacks on saturation attacks at both the front end and the end, and no matter what type of missile, as long as it is launched, it can be locked and destroyed by the space-based in three minutes at most.

Even if the enemy launches too many missiles and cannot destroy them all at once, the United States has other land and sea defense systems, and these systems will be connected to the space-based system, which will be deployed by the space-based system to form an air-ground-sea defense network.

For example, the number of ICBMs has the largest among all countries, nearly 500, but it takes 20 minutes for an ICBM to land on the US mainland. There are 89 single-system satellites in the entire space-based system network, and each of them can destroy an ICBM in three minutes, which means that a space-based system can destroy 89 ICBMs in three minutes.

However, such a bullish missile defense capability is only a sideline of space-based systems, and people's main business is not to use them to fight missiles, but to provide links, information, reconnaissance, and calculations for super-intelligent systems...... and other technologies, with it, the super-intelligent system of the alliance country can be launched around the clock no matter where it is, when it comes, so that it will not need to rely on relay links in another country.

Moreover, with it, all communications, networks, and control systems of the alliance countries can be merged into the space-based, and the space-based can rely on its powerful computing, reconnaissance, and execution capabilities to make corresponding measures.

To put it bluntly, when the space-based system detects that a certain country's reconnaissance plane flies into the airspace of the United States, the space-based system will automatically dispatch a drone to intercept, expel it, and destroy it.

And the huge super-intelligent robot soldiers of the alliance countries can also carry out tasks around the clock and in all terrain, even underground. Moreover, it can also realize the real-time transmission of battlefield images.

Of course, this is just one of the many features of space-based.
