Chapter 274: The burden is a bit big
The sky over the Grand Canyon is crystal clear and peaceful.
In the sky, two V-22 Ospreys flew at a speed of more than 400 kilometers per hour towards a hidden military in the depths of the Grand Canyon.
Two V-22 Ospreys arrived at their destination and rappelled down a hidden canyon.
A small military airfield, with more than a dozen helicopter gunships parked, and many fortifications next to the airport, is a very strong military base.
Behind the military base is a huge cement fortification, towering like a dam, and a ten-meter-wide cement passage below leads straight into the bottomless canyon.
"Mr. President, please follow me. Admiral Wells made an inviting gesture and invited President Sanders into the passage.
President Sanders nodded, eager to step in.
Under the sound of 'clang' and 'clang', the fluorescent lamps overhead emitted dazzling light, illuminating the entire passage, and the surface of the cement walls on both sides of the passage was uneven and corroded by time, full of the smell of history.
Seven or eight minutes away, Admiral Wells took President Sanders to the end of the passage, in front of an elevator guarded by two soldiers.
Admiral Wells performs pupil identification, enters the password for verification, and the elevator door slowly opens.
Soon, the elevator slowly descended deep underground with Admiral Wells and President Sanders.
"Mr. President, we will descend a hundred meters underground. Admiral Wells briefed President Sanders.
"That thing you said was found underground?" said President Sanders, nodding his head and asking curiously.
"No, the object was on the surface and couldn't move, so a large fortification was built to cover 'it'. Admiral Wells shook his head and explained.
"Huh, it's that big?" asked President Sanders in surprise.
"Well, it's very large, and it's coming soon, you can see it with your own eyes. Admiral Wells smiled mysteriously and nodded.
As soon as Admiral Wells finished speaking, there was a 'click', and the elevator reached the bottom and came to a steady stop.
The elevator door opened, and President Sanders couldn't wait to get out of the elevator, and the shocking scene immediately caught his eye.
In the spacious office area, you can see more than a dozen experts and professors in white uniforms, standing in front of various instruments and equipment, busy intently, and the other end of all the cutting-edge instruments and equipment is connected to a huge metal arch a hundred meters away.
The metal arch emits a gray-silver metallic light, incomparably huge, hundreds of meters high, the two arch pillars are like the feet of giants firmly rooted in the ground, the whole body is sleek, the metal surface is like a mirror, refracting the surrounding scenery, and the technical experts who are busy below, like ants, are extremely small.
"This, this...... When did you find out? What did you find?" asked President Sanders, his eyes wide, turning his head to Admiral Wells.
At first, when Admiral Wells gave him feedback, President Sanders was surprised and had doubts in his heart, but when he saw the real thing, he completely abandoned the doubts in his heart, and the construction technology of the arch in front of him contained a mysterious atmosphere, and the construction materials emitted a special metallic luster, which was definitely not something they could build.
"Mr. President, this arch was discovered in the 50s of the nineteenth century, almost two hundred years old, and we know very little about its research. Admiral Wells said with a wry smile.
"Based on years of research and speculation, the most likely metal fan is to be a portal stargate, which is the conclusion of Einstein, who participated in the research, however, the materials it was built and how it works are still beyond our knowledge. Admiral Wells replied.
After speaking, Admiral Wells's gaze fell on an old professor with a gray beard, and said, "Professor Manley, are you free? Can you tell us about your research with Mr. President." ”
Hearing this, the old professor frowned, stopped what he was doing, looked at President Sanders and asked, "Is this Mr. President?"
"Yes, there is not enough research funding, and now I need you to report the progress of the research to Mr. President and apply for research funding. Admiral Wells reminded with a smile.
Professor Manri's eyes lit up, and he quickly explained: "Mr. President, the construction material used for this arch is a dense atomic metal, which is a metal that has been compressed with high strength, showing very special properties, not only bringing a huge amount of energy, but also showing an extremely hard, stable structure, and cannot be corroded,...... , and so on, with our existing technical capabilities, we do not have the ability to pick a small piece off of it.
"We didn't make it, are you sure?" said President Sanders as he looked at Professor Manley and nodded, seeking confirmation.
"Yes, Mr. President, its atomic density is more than 100,000 times that of iron, and it is likely that it is embedded with a special force field system inside to maintain the stability of the entire structure,...... It is very difficult for us to study it, and according to the speed of human scientific and technological progress, within a hundred years, we human beings do not have this kind of processing technology. Professor Manry gave a detailed presentation to President Sanders.
"Well, then tell me what is the progress of your research, and after so long without results, why did you suddenly make a breakthrough recently?" asked President Sanders with a frown, looking at Professor Manley in confusion.
"Mr. Zhou Tian, due to the support of the basic scientific theory of 'The Theory of Terrandotal Waves', we have re-chosen the way of research, using particle waves and mechanical waves to comprehensively analyze it. Professor Manley smiled and nodded.
"Well, then what? what are the results?" The process and manner of the study President Sanders is too lazy to know, he only wants the results of the study now.
The Xingyao Group controlled by Zhou Xing is like a sword hanging high in Dalmos, which may cut off the national destiny of the United States at any time, and now President Sanders only wants to fight a 'turnaround war' to tell the world that the United States has enough scientific and technological strength to ensure their national status.
"Mr. President, the density of this dense atomic material is very staggering, and it takes a huge amount of money to develop a wave measuring instrument that can spy on this material. Professor Manley looked at President Sanders and explained embarrassedly.
"How much research funding is needed?" said President Sanders, his face darkened slightly.
"It's about $50 billion. Professor Manley looked at President Sanders with a nervous expression.
"When will there be results, and what will be the benefits?" asked President Sanders, staring at Professor Manley.
"If you can understand its inner workings, in energy, material processing, mechanical engineering,......。 and so on, we have access to a lot of new technologies. Professor Manry perked up and hurriedly introduced.
Hearing this, President Sanders was silent, this expenditure is not small, and it is a big burden on the government that is already teetering on the verge of bankruptcy.
